PROJECT LOCATION <br /> The proposed biomass/waste oil recovery facility would be located <br /> in San Joaquin County, southeast of the City of Stockton. Figure 2.1 <br /> shows the regional location and Figure 2.2 shows the project location. <br /> Nearby roads include Austin Road which runs along the site's western <br /> boundary and Mariposa Road which intersects Austin Road at the northwest- <br /> ern corner of the project area. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Rail- <br /> road line parallels the northeastern boundary of the project area, as <br /> shown in Figure 2.2. Access would be from Austin Road. <br /> The project area consists of a proposed 56.9-acre parcel that has <br /> been placed under option to acquire by the applicant, Falcon Energy Asso- <br /> ciates. Sugar beets are currently grown on this nearly level site which <br /> has an average elevation of 45 feet above mean sea level . Weber Slough <br /> borders the southern boundary of the project area. <br /> Approximately 19.8 acres of the southwest portion of the project <br /> site would be used for the proposed biomass/waste oil recovery facili- <br /> ties. The remaining 37.1 acres would be left undeveloped and could be <br /> leased for continued crop production. <br /> PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br /> Site Plan and Physical Characteristics <br /> The proposed site plan for the facility is shown in Figure 2.3. <br /> The major areas include the following: <br /> • Biomass storage; <br /> i <br /> • Processing equipment for biomass material ; <br /> • Plant access roads, emergency road, and parking areas; <br /> • Waste oil recovery tanks and equipment; <br /> • Office, repair shop, and laboratory (*) ; <br /> • Briquette/pellet storehouse (*) ; <br /> • Plant substation and electrical building (*) ; <br /> • Guardhouse and scalehouse (*) ; <br /> 2-2 <br /> I01-46.R4 4/1/89 <br />
