� 4 Item No. 4 PC: 11-19-92 UP-92-29 Page 4 Both the San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District and the Office of Emergency Services have responded to the application referral. The former indicated that the facility was exempt from its requirements. The tatter stated that the facility would be identified as a handler of hazardous materials but that the applicant would meet the requirements of the.California Health and Safety Code and that the building permit process could continue and a Certificate of Occupancy could be issued. FACILITIES/SERVICES: Water Sunply, Sewage Disposal, and Storm Drainage: Water service and sewage disposal is provided to the facility by existing on-site facilities - specifically, by a private well and septic system. Storm drainage runoff from the facility will be required to be retained on the site. The recommended Conditions of Approval require the liquid- chemical storage area to be designed to contain accidental spills and to prevent chemicals from entering either the retention pond or Lone Tree Creek. HAZARDS/CONSTRAINTS: Flooding: The portion of the project site nearest to Lone Tree Creek is within the boundaries of the 100-Year Flood Zone (see'Flood Zone`attachment). Section 9-1605 of the Development Title,which deals with flood hazards, states that all new construction and substantial improvement of existing structures in the Flood Zone shall comply with specific construction standards. This requirement is included in the recommended Conditions of Approval. The recommended Conditions also include the requirement that the six liquid storage tanks and two portable dry storage bins be located outside of the 100-Year Flood Zone to reduce the risk of chemicals from the facility adverse affecting the area's water quality. IY 9 q �Y ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Initial Study that was prepared for this project did not identify any potentially significant, adverse environmental impacts associated with the approval of the agricultural chemical sales facility. Based on that assessment, a Negative Declaration has been prepared. In addition, a Certificate of Fee Exemption with a 'De Minimis Impact Finding" has been prepared which states that the project will not have an adverse impact on wildlife resources.
