I Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page IV.A-18 ' Forward Inc.Landfill 2018 Expansion Project Impact A.1 is "Impact A.1: Compliance with County Plans and Policies. (Revises 2013 EIR Impact A.1)";the heading for Impact A.5 is "Impact A.5 Night lighting at the proposed project ' could interfere with airport landing lights. (Same As 2013 EIR Impact A.5)". Impact A.1: Compliance with County Plans and Policies. (Revises 2013 EIR Impact A.1) ' Project-related policy conflicts and inconsistencies do not,in and of themselves,constitute a significant environmental impact and are considered to be environmental impacts only when ' they would result in direct physical effects,which this EIR identifies pursuant to CEQA. All associated physical impacts of the proposed project are discussed in this EIR in specific topical sections of the following Chapter IV Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures. ' Zoning Classification The entire project site has a zone classification of AG-40. As discussed in Setting, County of San ' Joaquin General Plan and Zoning,Zone Classification,above,landfills are a conditionally permitted use in AG-40 zone subject to a Use Permit. Thus,the proposed project would be ' consistent with the County of San Joaquin AG-40 zone classification,if a new or revised Use Permit is granted. General Plan Land Use Designations ' As discussed in Setting, above, the General Plan designates the northern portion of the existing ' Forward Landfill (north of the original alignment of the North Fork of South Littlejohns Creek) as A/UR(Agriculture-Urban Reserve), and the southern portion of the existing Landfill as A/G (Agricultural, General). The proposed realignment of the South Fork of South Littlejohns ' Creek would require compliance with state and federal regulations, including approvals from the California Department of Fish and Game(CDFG),the RWQCB,the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for compliance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act,the Central Valley ' Flood Protection Board,the San Joaquin County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, and the California Department of Water Resources. (See F. Vegetation and Wildlife, Impact F-1. Filling of Waters of the U.S./ of the State, for additional discussion of these approvals.) ' As part of the approval process, California Public Resource Code Section 50000 requires the County to make a finding that a proposed facility is consistent with the County General Plan and its objectives,policies and implementation measures. This finding can be made because the ' proposed landfill modifications are consistent with the A/G (Agricultural, General) and A/UR (Agriculture--Urban Reserve) designations of the site. The project is consistent with the Program of the General Plan relative to solid waste (see Setting,General Plan Policies, above). ' The project is consistent with the General Plan Objective and Implementation Program relative to Agricultural Land. The project is consistent with General Plan Fire Safety Goal and Policies. The project is consistent with General Plan Airport Safety Goal and Policies. The project is ' consistent with the General Plan's Hazardous Materials and Wastes Goal and Policies. The project is also consistent with the Countywide Integrated Waste Management Plan and the San Joaquin Multiple Species Conservation and Open Space Plan(Funderburg,pers. com.2018). ' I
