Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page III-6 Forward Inc.Landfill 2018 Expansion Project footprint in the south area by shifting the existing disposal footprint to the north and realigning the South Fork of South Littlejohns Creek to the southern and eastern boundary of the site. Therefore, a total of approximately 14.9 acres of disposal footprint was proposed for addition to the landfill. • The expansion of the disposal area would have increased total landfill capacity by approximately 8.0 million cubic yards beyond currently permitted levels,all of which would have been Class II landfill space. • Relocate 3,000 feet of South Fork of South Littlejohn Creek(which currently traverses the landfill)to the southeastern boundaries of the site to provide additional separation of the creek from the landfill. The relocated creek would have been approximately 3,400 feet in length. A Draft Supplemental EIR(DSEIR)was circulated for this proposed expansion in December ' 2014 and comments were received,but Forward abandoned the project before the Final Supplemental EIR was completed. Forward is now proposing an expansion project(referred to herein as the 2018 Forward Expansion Project) similar to the 2014 Expansion Project described above. The additional proposed landfill acreage is entirely within the boundary of the 567-acres permitted under the current land use permit(UP-00-0007/ER-00-0002), approved by the Board of Supervisors on April 8,2003.The 2018 Expansion Project would not entail putrescible waste (waste streams other than concrete,rock, asphalt,wood and yard waste)in the Outer Approach of the Stockton Metropolitan Airport, expansion of landfill footprint to within 10,000 feet of the end of the usable runway of the Stockton Metropolitan Airport, or expansion of landfilling operations on to any parcels of land under Williamson Act contract.The 2018 Expansion Project described in this Supplemental EIR does not include the 2012 Project's proposed horizontal expansion of landfilling operations on the 184-acre Brocchini parcel,nor any other changes to the current uses of that parcel. The 2018 Expansion Project would make the following changes to the currently permitted landfill: • Allow the construction of landfill disposal cells and landfilling operations within those cells on an 8.7-acre parcel that lies in the northeast portion of the site within the currently permitted landfill boundary.In addition,approximately 8.6 acres of landfill disposal area is proposed to be added in the south area by shifting the existing disposal footprint to the north and realigning the South Fork of South Littlejohn Creek to the southern and eastern boundary of the site(see Figures III.0-4 and III.0-5).Therefore,a total of approximately ' 17.3 acres of disposal footprint is proposed to be added.The western boundary of the footprint of these added cells would in all cases be consistent with applicable law and implementing advisories as detailed in Table 3A of the San Joaquin County Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan(ALUCP). • The expansion of the disposal area would increase total landfill capacity by approximately 8.12 million cubic yards(cy)beyond currently permitted levels(see Figure III.0-6). This ' would increase the remaining landfill capacity from approximately 15.7 million cy
