There are two primary types of land uses in the area surrounding the project site, gravel mining and agriculture, Lone Star Industries operates a sand and gravel mining facility west of the site, with Teichert Aggregates operating a similar facility to the north. Directly.across MacArthur Drive to the east are orchards and a field presumably used for-row crops. The.property to the south of the site is vacant agricultural land. Other land uses in the Area includ.0•fields of row craps and the Royster•Tire Storage and Recycling facility to the west. The Banta-Carbona Irrigation District canal runs along the western boundary of the site. Corral Hollow Creek Js also located north of the site: There are few residences in the project-area. The closest are the two mobile homes located across MacArthur Drive,approximately 600 feet northeast of the site. There-is also one residence approximately 1.4 miles South of the site on the west side of MacArthur Drive. There are also scattered residences at the intersection of Linne Road and MacArthur Drive,north of the site. The Final BR concluded that the project is not like to create land use conflicts with surrounding P ] iY g f fl' uses; either agricultural, residential, or resource extraction. The project will be enclosed with a six-foot high chain-link fence and landscaped along MacArthur Drive. Also,except for the wood - _• and yard waste processing and composting,all other operations will take place inside the transfer station building. This,.combined with the.project's locatlon in the bottom of the 30-toot-deep pit, t will.minimize land use conflicts. Property owners in the area were mailed notices of Draft EIR availability, as well as project referrals. No comments from neighbors were received on the Draft EiR., and no comments regarding the Draft EiR were made by the one neighboring property owner present at the hearing on the Draft EIR. Traffic/Circulation: The Final EIR prepared for the project did not identify any significant traffic related impacts. The proposed project is expected to generate approximately 500 daily trips initially and approximately 1,100 daily trips in 2010. Since the trips will likely be dispersed over an entire day, according to the FEiR there is We relative impact to other users of the local transportation system. FACiLiTIESJSERViCES: Drainage, Storm water runoff from all areas except the wood storage and yard.waste composting area will drain to an on-site retention pond. Storm water runoff from the wood storage.and yard waste I compost area will drain to an on-site lined evaporation pond. Water used for periodic wash dawn i of the transfer station floor will be collected and directed to holding tanks for temporary storage until pumped out and hauled off the site for disposal.
