Nearby residents breathe the polluted air emanating from these chickens. <br /> Airborne ammonia causes eye and lung irritation. Because of the high winds in this area the dust will travel to most <br /> nearby residents in the area. <br /> Runoff from areas with chicken manure and waste have potential to contaminate groundwater,which are sources of <br /> drinking water. The nitrogen in chicken manure is easily converted to nitrate in water sources for drinking water. Nitrate <br /> contamination is prevalent in groundwater in San Joaquin County. The area has many private residential wells. <br /> There are also concerns for increases in fly populations. Flies do not stay on the property and it is difficult to control flies <br /> on surrounding properties. Fly control is so difficult that pest control companies will not do service for flies. <br /> I would appreciate your considering these problems and not approving the project to safeguard the health and safety of <br /> the residents of this area. <br /> I also request that a full E.LR.be done. <br /> Thank you. <br /> 1 <br /> Planning Commission Staff Report, PA-1800316(UP) 136 <br /> Response Letters <br />
