Consolidated Fonvard Inc. Landfill Page 17 systems. As part of that plan,grading operations will be scheduled-to avoid the rainy season and beimplemented by interim engineering control measures. Before grading is stopped, slopes n-ilf be directed to cant'runoff to areas where erosion and sedimentation can be controlled. Truck beds will be hosed down to reduce soil spillage on paved roads and wind- bloNtn dust. Relocation of Littlejohns Creek could lessen the sedimentation potential to the creek. Completed cells will be stabilized by the planting and maintenance of drought-resistant grasses. This will inhibit wind and water erosion and maximize the fertility of the soil in order to facilitate'revegetation. Temporary plantings,geofabric drapes,and erosion-preventing diversions of surface water N,.-ill be constructed as appropriate on temporary slopes. Regular operational and post-closure monitoring of erosion control structures and plantings ,�Nill be done for a minimum of five years. 59 Forward 1993(B.5) Assessment of gro ndwater levels in monitoring wells shall be initiated within 24 hours folloi%ing an earthquake event having a Modified Afercalli intensity of V or greater at the landfill. This will allow the water level database to be adjusted or seismic variations. In the event that anomalous water level changes are noted, a series of water quality sampling and testing events shall be initiated by the applicant to coordination with the RWQCB to detect an changes in water quality that may signs subsurface adjustments in landfill cells. 60 Forward 1993(B.6) Benchmarks shall be established(these could utili_zze monitoring well top of casing elevations), which will allowfor determinations ofsettlement/consolidation offill materials in closed sections of the landfall on an annual basis and following significant seismic events (Modified Merealli Scale of Yor above). In the event that changes are noted, the cause should be determined as should the effect on leachate collection and recovery systems. Repair liners and LCRS as necessary. In addition, remedial grading should be accomplished to restore the original cap's function to repel water and direct surface runoff. H.BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES 61 (H.2) Identified in This EIR: Night lighting with sodium lamps with sharp cutoff angles shall be used to focus light in active landfall areas(target areas) and to avoid nighttime lighting of adjacent open.areas and trees. 62 (H.3) Proposed as Part of the Project: As a participant in the SJCMSCP,Forward will incorporate SJCMSCP guidelines developed to minimize effects of rodenticides to the garter snake, the brush rabbit and the Swainson's Hawk(Appendix A of the SJCMSCP).
