Rev.0,4/22/11 <br /> Project 110219 <br /> 4 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS <br /> 4.1 Environmental Factors <br /> There are a variety of environmental factors typically evaluated under the CEQA Guidelines. <br /> The environmental factors generally include: <br /> • Aesthetics <br /> • Biological Resources <br /> • Geology/Soils <br /> • Land Use and Planning <br /> • Population and Housing <br /> • Transportation and Traffic <br /> • Agriculture and Forest Resources <br /> • Climate Change and Greenhouse Gas Emissions <br /> • Hazards and Hazardous Materials <br /> • Mineral Resources <br /> • Public Services <br /> • Utilities/Service Systems <br /> • Air Quality <br /> ® Cultural Resources <br /> • Hydrology and Water Quality <br /> • Noise <br /> • Recreation <br /> Because FSL is an existing permitted facility, many of these environmental factors have been <br /> considered as part of the development of the landfill and the granting of the facilities permits. In <br /> addition, the proposed LFGTE Facility is a small project in relation to the landfill, occupying a <br /> proposed area of approximately 0.7 acres of the 800-acre FSL site. It, therefore, has limited to <br /> no impact on many of the above listed environmental factors. <br /> In particular, the biological resources, population and housing, transportation and traffic, <br /> agriculture and forest resources, hazards and hazardous materials, mineral resources, public <br /> resources, cultural resources, and recreation categories would appear to have no impact from the <br /> LFGTE Facility project. Brief discussions of the remaining environmental factors, with <br /> references to studies performed for the project, are provided in the following sections. <br /> ' X,PROJECMAr RESCOA 10219-FOOTFRLL LFGTE FACLLITY\ENGECERING\San Joaquin County Site Approval Applicafiou\FoodWl LFGTE-Pn jeot I—iption(fina1422-11).&o <br /> CORNERSTONE 4-1 LEWIS ENGINEERING <br /> Environmental G—p,LLC <br />
