<br /> <br />North County Recycling Center and Sanitary Landfill Permit Revision Project <br />Final Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration · San Joaquin County | May 2025 <br />56 <br /> <br />would increase the hours of operation and increase the amount of off-road equipment used on <br />site, both the type of equipment used and the manner of operation will remain the same. <br /> <br />According to the Noise Analysis, typical vibration levels generated by a large bulldozer and <br />loaded trucks at 25 feet would be 0.089 inch per second (87 VdB) and 0.076 inch per second (86 <br />VdB). For potential building damage, vibration levels generated by a large bulldozer and loaded <br />trucks at 25 feet are both below the applicable criteria of 0.2 inch per second recommended by <br />the FTA to prevent damage to structures to non-engineered timber and masonry buildings. <br />Therefore, as the nearest vibration sensitive receptor to the project site is located approximately <br />2,750 feet from the equipment activity area, and the nearest vibration-sensitive receptor along <br />haul routes is located about 65 feet from the centerline of the road, project operation activities <br />related to vibration levels would be less than significant. <br />c) For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan <br />or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or <br />public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project <br />area to excessive noise levels? <br />No Impact <br /> <br />The nearest airport is Wallom Field Airport, approximately six miles southwest of the project site. <br />Therefore, the project would have no impact related to the exposure of people to excess noise <br />levels from aircraft. <br /> <br />
