As part of the Tracy Hills project proposed by Grupe Communities within the City of Tracy, the Flintkote site is to be utilized for storm water retention ponds on both Plan A and B. These ponds would also include a drainage pond for the area designated as dry grazing land and all ponds would be located along the northern boundary of the site. The two ponds generated by the Tracy Hills project would utilize the existing ponds located in the northwest comer of the property. A permanent wastewater reclamation facility is also proposed but only on Plan B. Such a facility would utilize all or part of the area designated outside the storm water retention ponds and could include settling ponds as well as a treatment facility. Please note that should the wastewater reclamation facility option be implemented, it would be subject to additional environmental review and permitting through the appropriate lead agency. Only Plan C proposes to utilize the site entirely as dry grazing/pasture land with no involvement from Grupe Communities and the City of Tracy. As noted on each of the plans, the pastureland would be non-irrigated and would maintain a uniform slope to the land not to exceed overall 3% grade. The impetus behind the requested changes to the reclamation plan is the need to address the Tracy Hills approach to the project site. The proposed storm water retention ponds and wastewater reclamation facility allows for reuse of the site in a manner which can better serve the community by locating adverse uses in a location with limited public access. Furthermore, the facilities would utilize existing ponds and graded areas which may help to reduce costs. Should the Tracy Hills project choose not to utilize the site for their facilities, the proposed dry grazing/pasture land would still clean up the site while allowing the site to be reclaimed in a manner consistent with its original use.
