FISCAL IMPACT None. BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The Board of Supervisors requested a status report on the landfill proposals identified in the solid waste management plan. Bay Pointe - A complete application was never submitted to the County, and EIR has not been prepared on the site. Since the original application, a major portion of the property has been sold. The remaining area for a landfill is substantially smaller and partially within the explosive safety easement of the Navel Weapons Station. Bay Pointe would require a revised application and EIR to continue to be a viable landfill site. Kirker Canyon and East Contra Costa - New landfill regulations have. been promulgated since the Board last reviewed these two sites . For example, a health risk assessment is now required by the Air District. Revision and recirculation of the EIRs would take approximately six months, following execution of a contract. Marsh Canyon and Keller Bailey - EIRs are currently in preparation for both these landfill applications. Both are scheduled for review by the Board of Supervisors in January and February 1990 .

Based on this discussion, as well as on similar discussions at the June 21, 1989 SWC meeting, the Commission declares the following: The Solid Waste Commission, having thoroughly considered and examined the California Environmental. Quality Act (CEQA) implications of the proposed language changes to the Plan, and having reviewed Community Development Department's Initial Study document prepared for the language originally recommended to the Board by the SWC, believes that the new modified proposed amendment below will not require further CEQA review and/or documentation. The Commission hereby recommends that the Plan be amended on page 11 to read (underlined is added, over-struck text is deleted) : Since the location of future landfill sites cannot be specifically identified in this Plan at this time, the transfer station needs of the County cannot be completely identified. However, it is possible to generally identify transfer station needs. The following describes transfer stations that are consistent with this Plan and will not require an amendment to the Plan when they are proposed. A full-scale transfer station will be needed in West County. A full-scale or mini-transfer station will be needed in East County. The location and type of transfer station for East County can only be determined when landfill sites are approved. For Central and South County, two transfer stations are consistent with this Plan. For Central and South County, the Acme Fill transfer station and the Acme Fill interim transfer station are consistent with this Plan.

That proposal was initially recommended to the Board by the Commission and was endorsed 15-1 (2 abstentions) by the Mayors' Conference. However, in the spirit of reaching a compromise solution, the SWC voted unanimously to approve the paragraph above.
