The revised project described in the proposed SEIR in relation to the FEIR is a smaller development of permitted landfilling capacity that does not include the previously proposed horizontal expansion of landfilling operations onto the adjacent 184.0 acre parcel and no cancellation of the Williamson Act Contract. Location The project site is located on the west side of Austin Road, 1/2 mile north of Lynch Road, north of Manteca. Environmental Issues to be discussed in the SEIR 1. Land Use. Potential effects of the landfill expansion on local land uses, including potential bird hazards for the Stockton Metropolitan Airport, to an industrial use, and night lighting will be assessed. 2. Traffic. Traffic analysis will be provided relative to vehicle traffic at the entry location, and the intersections of Austin Road at Mariposa Road, Arch Road, and French Camp Road. 3. Noise. Noise generated at the site will be evaluated relative to the impact on nearby residences and compliance with the County noise ordinance. 4. Air Quality/Odors. The SEIR will assess the public health consequences from potential chronic, acute, or accidental release of designated hazardous wastes into the air from the proposed expansion of the disposal footprint. 5. Hydrology and Water Quality. The expansion of the existing landfill will require a revised grading plan. Surface and groundwater impacts will be evaluated. Impacts associated with �- the landfill's proximity on the relocation of the South Branch of the South Fork of Little Johns Creek will be evaluated. The SEIR will review the proposed landfill development plan, including groundwater monitoring, leachate control, and runoff management plans. 6. Soils and Geology. Slope stability and earthquake issues will be evaluated. 7. Biological Resources. The SEIR will review biological issues relative to the expansion of the existing landfill. The San Joaquin County Multi Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan will be described as it applies to the expansion of the current site. 8. Public Services and Utilities. The SEIR will review impacts relative to police, fire and wastewater. 9. Cultural Resources. The SEIR will summarize the cultural resources analyses and mitigation measures in the previous EIRs. 10. Visual Quality. The SEIR will analyze the visual and aesthetics of the proposed expansion. 11. Climate Change. The SEIR will analyze issues of greenhouse gas emissions related to the operations of the project and the corresponding traffic. 2
