HAZARDS/CONSTRAINTS : Water Quality and Hazardous Waste: During the Traina Brothers hearing on September 10 , 1987 , the Local Health District noted that traces of chloroform were evi- dent in water in this area. Consequently, the Health District is requesting that if individual wells are used on an interim basis, a test well is to be drilled to determine the water quality and availability before the final map is approved. The Tracy Defense Department is adjacent to the site on the northeast . Though the Tracy Defense Depot is not now designated as a hazardous waste site, it has been identified as being a potentially hazardous waste site and is currently being assessed by State and Federal agencies for possible inclusion on the Superfund List . Additionally, there has been an iden- tified off-site hazard in the groundwater to the northeast of the Defense Depot which is migrating away from the project site . State law requires that if a project is within 2000 feet of a designated hazardous waste site , a Border Zone Property/ Hazardous Waste Determination" is necessary. This deter- mination by the Department of Health Services , Toxic Substance Control Division, must be made within one year of any construc- tion. Additionally, the State can impose development restric- tions as a result of the determination. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS : An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the Traina Brothers General Plan Amendment . The Final EIR was certified by the Board of Supervisors on August 27 , 1987 . As part of the EIR certification, a Finding of Significant Impacts and a Statement of Overriding Considerations were adopted. The EIR also proposed mitigation measures to address potentially significant environmental effects which could be eliminated or reduced to acceptable levels . Conditions of Approval have been proposed to address these issues .
