Conclusion <br /> The Department recommends further discussion of the following issues: <br /> • Type, amount, and location of farmland conversion resulting directly and <br /> indirectly from implementation of the proposed project. <br /> • Impacts on any current and future agricultural operations in the vicinity; e.g., <br /> land-use conflicts, increases in land values and taxes, loss of agricultural support <br /> infrastructure such as processing facilities, etc. <br /> • Incremental impacts leading to cumulative impacts on agricultural land. This <br /> would include impacts from the proposed project, as well as impacts from past, <br /> current, and likely future projects. <br /> • Proposed mitigation measures for all impacted agricultural lands within the <br /> proposed project area. <br /> • Projects compatibility with lands within an agricultural preserve and/or enrolled in <br /> a Williamson Act contract. <br /> • If applicable, notification of Williamson Act contract non-renewal and/or <br /> cancellation. <br /> Thank you for giving us the opportunity to comment on the Notice of Preparation of an <br /> Environmental Impact Report for the Griffith Energy Storage Project.
