f r This includes a 24-hour hazardous waste materials management training program that complies with 29 CFR, Section 1910. Pro*ect site located in a flood zone: The project site is located within FIRM (FEMA Federal Insurance Rate Map) panels 060299 0465C(April 2, 2002),060299 06056(December 16, 2005),and 060299 0610 A(May 15, 1980). With the exception of areas near the creek channels, which are in Flood Zone A, the Forward Landfill site is within flood zone designations B and C. No development or activities will occur in the 184 acres if approved. Any future development will have to comply with Development Title Section 9- 1605 regarding flood hazards. Potential impact to endangered species: Based on a review of the Natural Diversity Database and recorded site visits 55 special-status animal and plant species (four federally and/or State-listed animal species) could potentially occur on the site. The San Joaquin Council of Governments has been notified and will determine if the applicant may participate in the San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJMSCP). If the applicant chooses to participate in the SJMSCP, the proposed project is consistent with the SJMSCP as amended, as reflected in the conditions of project approval for this proposal. Pursuant to the Final EIR/EIS for the San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJMSCP), dated November 15, 2000, and certified by the San Joaquin Council of Governments on December 7, 2000, implementation of the SJMSCP is expected to reduce impacts to biological resources resulting from the proposed project to a level of less-than- significant. If the applicant chooses not to participate,then the applicant will be required to participate in a similar mechanism that provides the same level of mitigation. Notification of proposed expansion plans not mentioned: Notification for the proposed expansion project and solid waste facilities boundary amendment was sent to all agencies of concern and all property owners within 1400 feet as required by Development Title Section 9-215.8(Staff.Review with Notice Procedure). Depth to -groundwater and potential groundwater contamination: The proposed request is to amend the current facilities waste boundary only and update the landfill gas probe monitoring system no additional landfill activities will occur in the 184 acnes. The existing Forward Landfill is currently permitted under Use Permit application UP-00-0007 and methods and procedures are included in the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Monitoring Plan for review of the depth to groundwater for current activities and to reduce the potential for groundwater contamination. As required by the Conditions of Approval for UP-00-0007 Forward Landfill shall continue to test all known water supply wells within the area of the mapped and projected groundwater plume. Groundwater monitoring test shall be performed quarterly at all down gradient private wells at risk. Where detectable Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) have historically been reported, bottled water shall continue to be supplied by the applicant(as is currently being done for two affected households) until the well sample analytical results show no detectable (VOCs) for four consecutive quarterly sampling events. Other offsite private wells such as the CYA wells that have not been adversely affected by the plume shall continue to be monitored and if (VOC) contamination is reported then replacement water shall be provided by the applicant, if requested. For wells within the footprint of the plume, institutional controls such as notification to current and future landowners regarding risks of installing production wells shall be implemented as part of the local well permitting process. Current amendment would meet requirements for a modified solid waste facilities permit nota report of facility information amendment: A solid waste facilities permit amendment is required to address any change in boundary whether or not the waste footprint is expanded. The proposed request is to amend the current facilities waste boundary only and update the landfill gas probe monitoring system, no additional landfill activities will occur in the 184 acres. Any change in refuse footprint will require additional environmental review. San Joaquin.County PAA 000245\Forward;l nc. Community Development Page 5
