6CLEINF-ELDER Bright People.Right Solutions. 1 Chapter 2 Project Description This chapter of the Initial Study provides a brief summary description of the project followed by project setting and background information and detailed descriptions of the location and physical elements of the project. 2.1 Project Brief The proposed project involves expansion of the existing East Stockton Recycling and Transfer Station (ESRTS) located at 2435 East Weber Avenue in Stockton. The project proponent is J. H. Williams East (JHW). The existing ESRTS facility currently processes primarily construction and demolition wastes under City of Stockton (Use Permit No.: 75-95) and California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) (No.: 39-AA-018) permits. The expanded ESRTS facility would accommodate existing ESRTS recycling p Y activity, commercial and residential single-stream recycling activity now taccommodated at a separate JHW facility at 401 S Lincoln Street in Stockton, and additional potential recycling usage. Permitted recycling activity at the expanded ESRTS facility would average 1,000 tons per day (TPD) with a maximum allowable daily processing limit of 1,250 (TPD). The existing Lincoln Street facility will be closed when the expanded ESRTS facility is in operation. The ESRTS expansion project would involve a 1.77-acre expansion of the existing site at 2435 East Weber Avenue from 4.96 to 6.28 acres. The expansion acreage would accommodate a relocated truck entry, truck staging areas, a new truck scale and truck circulation as well as unspecified uses of an existing warehouse building on the expansion site. A new 33,400-square foot structure would be located within the existing site to accommodate single-stream recycling activities relocated from 401 S Lincoln Street. A new 1,000 square foot office would be constructed adjacent to this building. With the exception of building and landscaping areas, the entire site would be paved. 2.2 Project Location The proposed project site (ESRTS) consists of approximately 6.28 acres of developed and vacant land located adjacent to and west of Filbert Street, adjacent to and south of the Stockton Terminal and Eastern (ST&E) Railroad, east of E Street and north of Myrtle Street in east Stockton, California. The project site is bisected by Weber Avenue and existing F Street, which would be 1 abandoned as part of the project. The project site is approximately 300 feet north of SR 4 Crosstown Freeway (Figures 2-1 through 2-5). 121339/ST011 R209 2-1 September 16,2011 Copyright 2011 Kleinfelder
