The proposed expansion of auto dismantling a operation on Walnut Street would promote business retention and expansion within the City and U the sites are approximately two miles from each other. o The project site consists of four individual parcels of approximately 10.23 acres and the site a contains two single-family structures. The majority of the site (approximately nine acres) has historically been vacant. The two single-family structures would be demolished to accommodate the proposed project. Additionally, the subject area consists of a mix of industrial uses and residential neighborhoods with some vacant land. The proposed General Plan Amendment(GPA)will not disrupt or divide N the physical arrangement in this part of the City and is needed to accommodate the proposed project. The proposed GPA would revert the project site back to its previously adopted land use o designation of Industrial Heavy (IH). The proposed IH district would be consistent and 0 compatible with the properties abutting the subject site to the east, south and west. The proposed land use designation would not conflict with the General Plan or the analysis in the General Plan n Environmental Impact Report SCH No.2004111132. a The proposed development would be developed in two phases. Phase I would include construction of a 7,500-square foot building for office, retail automobile repairing, a 2,500- d square foot shed structure for covered storage, and open storage to accommodate up to 420 cars. z Phase I also includes a 10,150-square foot private pocket park located at the northwest comer of m the project site. The pocket park would be landscaped with turf and constructed with decorative paving and seating. Phase II would expand the operation to include an additional 7,500-square foot building for office, retail automobile servicing and open storage to accommodate up to 386 E cars. z U A The proposed project will provide employment opportunities for residents and will improve the appearance the project site with architectural design that complies with the industrial architecture design guidelines in Chapter G19.08 (9) of the Development Code. The following site design © discussion illustrates compatibility of the project with the surrounding neighborhood. GPAll-06 and CUPII-16 PC Meeting Date: 7-25-12 Page 4 Parkin The site plan has been designed to provide adequate parking stalls at a ratio of I stall per 300 square feet of gross building area plus one space for every 10,000 of gross yard area. Section 19.24.040 of the Development Code requires a minimum of 71 parking spaces for this project, a and the proposed site plan meets that standard with 74 stalls. .c Architecture E N The proposed building has been designed with a modem architectural style, and fagades will be o articulated on all sides and through the use of different materials including CMU block and ° stucco in neutral shades of gray. Roofline treatment will be metal roof panels with stucco finish a to match the elevations. Storefronts will be articulated with eyebrow, aluminum framing, and o tempered glazing. a Landscaping The proposed landscaping will include 25 trees (24" and 36" boxes of various species including Magnolia, Sweet Bay, River Birch, and Purple Robe Locust), various shrubs, vines, ground iL cover and decorative hardscape and paving. The conceptual landscape plan provides 16% (75,000) of on-site landscaping which includes the private pocket park and complies with the ° Development Code requirements pursuant to Chapter 19.28, Landscaping Standards. a The pocket park will be maintained by the applicant and the maintenance requirement has been incorporated as part Condition of Approval No. 8. `�•� Operating Characteristics N The hours of operation for the proposed project are expected to be regular business hours from n 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday—Saturday. 0 0 The project site provides adequate on-site circulation and would comply with the IH land use d regulations and development standards of the Development Code, as indicated in the following Table 2: A ur U a N C Y E L U N Q C N E L U A Q Packet.Pg. 29 GPAll-06 and CUPII-I6 PC Meeting Date.: 7-15-12 Page 5 TABLE 2: PROJECT COMPLIANCE WITH DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS STANDARD DEVELOPMENT CODE PROPOSAL rn c C A Building Coverage 75%maximum 5% a 0 0 Parking 94 stalls 94 stalls a 15%of parking area 16% (445,618 square feet) c Landscaping (8,950 square feet) ° (53 trees) a 53 trees) Setbacks Front: 10 feet Front: 25 feet Street Side: 10 feet Street Side: 10 feet Rear: 10 feet Rear: 10 feet U Building Height 45 feet 25 feet o CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT(CEOA) The project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). An Initial Study 1 0 (available on the City's web site at wwwsbcity.or_ — see "How do I..." and "Locate..." and click Planning Documents) was prepared by Hogle-Ireland Inc. and circulated for a 20-day public review period from May 29,2012, to June 20, 2012, pursuant to the provisions of CEQA. N No comments were received. The Final Initial Study proposes a Mitigated Negative Declaration, including Mitigation Measures detailed in the Mitigation Monitoring/Reporting Program o (Attachment D). FINDINGS OF FACT—GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 2 v, U 1. The proposed amendment is internally consistent with the General Plan. o N The proposed amendment to change the land use designation of approximately 10.23 acres from w RU to III is needed to accommodate the proposed auto dismantling and salvage yard operation. z The change in designation is consistent with the land use pattern occurring in this part of the City to the east, west and south in the III land use district. The proposed use would be similar to a adjacent auto wrecking uses to the west and northwest of the project site. The proposed amendment will not result in the loss of significant amounts of residential land, and will be E consistent with the development patterns along Walnut Street. m Further,the project will be consistent with the following General Plan policies: a Packet Pg. 30 l GPA11-06 and CUP11-16 { PC Meeang Date: 7-25-11 Page 6 Policy 4.1.1 states: "Proactively seek out and retain businesses that create jobs and generate sales tax revenue". The subject auto dismantling and salvage yard operation will establish a new industrial use that will provide employment opportunities for residents. Policy 5.5.1 states: "Requires new and in-fill development to be of compatible scale and massing as existing development yet allow the flexibility to accommodate unique architecture,colors,and c materials in individual projects". The proposed one-story retail industrial buildings will be consistent with the surrounding one-story industrial building theme on Walnut Street to the west. N The proposed neutral shades of gray and roofline treatment with metal panels with stucco finish o on the buildings will improve the appearance of the project site and will provide an enhancement 3 to the area. G m a ?. The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. The proposed amendment does not cause changes that would be detrimental to the public a interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. The amendment from RU to III for D 10.23 acres would facilitate and accommodate the development of an industrial use on an C industrial property. 3. The proposed amendment maintains the appropriate balance of land uses within the City. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan as described above and would M �•• maintain the appropriate balance of land uses within the City. The property designation of RU is not conducive for a residential development as the site is surrounded by industrial uses. The N proposed amendment will promote an industrial use, compatible with other industrial uses N adjacent to the west on Walnut Street and encourage business retention within the City. r 0 4. The subject parcel is physically suitable (including, but not limited to, access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence ofphysical constraints)for the requested land use designation and anticipated land use development. m rn U All agencies responsible for reviewing access, and providing water, sanitation and other public rL services have had the opportunity to review the proposal, and none have indicated an inability to - a serve the project site considering the change in land use designation. All required utilities and public services can adequately serve the site. z U R! FINDINGS OF FACT—CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 1. The proposed development is conditionally permitted in the subject zoning district and E complies with all applicable provisions of the Development Code, including prescribed site Z development standards and any/all applicable design guidelines. a The proposed project is conditionally permitted under the III land use classification, and the proposed project and its proposed on-site improvements related to vehicular access and circulation, water supply, drainage and wastewater conveyance will improve the appearance of Packet Pg. 31 GPAI1-06 and CUPII-16 PC Meeting Date: 7-25-12 Page 7 the project site and will be compatible with existing development in the vicinity. The project complies with all applicable provisions of the Development Code, as illustrated in the staff report. Therefore, the proposal would not impair the integrity and character of the subject land use district. m 2. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan. .c m As noted above in GPA Finding No. 1, the proposed project is consistent with several General N Plan goals and policies. The Land Use Element (Table LU-2) of the City of San Bernardino 0 General Plan describes the Industrial Heavy land use district as allowing"(a) variety of industrial .2 uses, including warehousing/distribution, assembly, light manufacturing, research and < development....... at a range of intensities to meet the demand of current and future residents. a Land Use Policy 2.2.1 requires compatibility between land uses and quality design. General Plan a Policy 4.1.2, states: "proactively seek out and retain businesses...., including: attracting industrial and manufacturing users." The proposed project will implement these General Plan goals and policies. a. D 3. Approval of the Conditional Use Permit for the proposed development is in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and Section 19.20.030(6) of ° the Development Code. a Approval of CUP No. 11-16 is in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and Development Code Section 19.20.030 (6)pertaining to environmental resources and constraints. Approval of the proposed project would not result in any impacts on the environment that could not be mitigated to less than significant levels. N Potentially significant impacts identified in the Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration will be less H than significant with implementation of the proposed mitigation measures in the Mitigation Monitoring/Reporting Program in Attachment D. 0 a v 4. There will be no potential significant negative impacts upon environmental quality and natural resources that could not be properly mitigated and monitored. m N U As noted in CUP Finding No. 3, the proposed project complies with CEQA and Development a Code requirements related to environmental review and protection of sensitive natural resources. Evidence and analysis in the Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration demonstrates that all d potentially significant environmental impacts of the project will be mitigated to less than L significant levels by implementation of the recommended mitigation measures in Attachment D. a 5. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use are compatible with the existing and future land uses within the general area in which the proposed use is to E be located and will not create significant noise, traffic or other conditions or situations that � may be objectionable or detrimental to other permitted uses in the vicinity or adverse to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. a The proposed project would conform to all applicable development standards and land use ^ regulations of the IH land use district, as illustrated in Table 2 above. Therefore, the design of the Packet Pg. 32 GPAII-06 and CUPII-I6 PC Meeting Date.: 7-15-I2 � © Page 8 project, in conjunction with the recommended conditions of approval, will ensure that the project would not create significant noise, traffic, or other conditions or situations that may be objectionable or detrimental to other permitted uses in the vicinity of the site, nor would it be adverse to the public interest, health, safety, convenience or welfare of the City. The location, size, design and character of the proposed project will enhance the operation,to the benefit of the rn public interest and general welfare of the City. c m 6. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and density/intensity of use being proposed. y 0 The project site is physically suitable for dismantling and salvage yard operation, developed at ° the density proposed by CUP No. 11-16, as evidenced by the project's compliance with all < 3 applicable Development Code Standards noted in Table 2 above. There are no physical o constraints that would limit development and expansion of an auto dismantling and salvage yard a operation on the site as proposed. Therefore, the site is physically suitable for the proposed ! project. i j 7. There are adequate provisions for public access, water, sanitation, and public utilities and n I services to ensure that the proposed use would not be detrimental to public health and safety. Y 0 All agencies responsible for reviewing access and providing water, sanitation and other public a services to the site have had the opportunity to review the proposal, and none indicated inability to serve the project site. Standard health and safety regulations will ensure that development of B the project will not be detrimental to public health and safety. �•r/ CONCLUSION N The project proposal satisfies all Findings of Fact required for approval of General Plan Amendment No. 11-05 and Conditional Use Permit No. 11-16. 0 a v RECOMMENDATION m U) U Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend that the Mayor and Common a Council: m 1.

Margo Wheeler, Director; Henry Emperlo,Jr, Senior Deputy City Attorney; Tony Stewart, City Planner Background: A staff report recommending approval of the subject project was distributed for the August 20, 2012 Mayor and Common Council meeting. However, the applicant requested that the item be continued to September 17, 2012, to allow Hogle-Ireland and its associates to resolve issues brought up by the City of Colton. The Mayor and Common Council continued the item to September 17, 2012. On September 13, 2012, Community Development staff, Hogle-Ireland and its associates met with the City of Colton Public Utilities Department. Hogle-Ireland and associates have successfully resolved issues brought up by Colton. The Mitigation Monitoring/Reporting Program (MMRP) is to be amended to include Mitigation Measure HQW-1 to mitigate concerns pertaining to the on-site inspection program and its site plan to incorporate vegetated swales and additional oil water separators. Please refer to Exhibits C and D. The responses to comments by Hogle-Ireland provide revisions for clarification or amplification of information. In no instances do the written responses provide substantial new information or indicate new impacts or increase in the severity of impacts identified in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND). The clarification determined that environmental impacts will remain less than significant. Therefore recirculation of the proposed MND is not required. Please refer to Exhibit A. Additionally, there has been a concern regarding drainage issues located at the corner of Muscott and Walnut Streets, approximately 150 feet west of the project site. The applicant/operator has agreed to a cash deposit of$25,000 into the storm drain construction fund for a future CIP project to mitigate the existing drainage issues at Muscott and Walnut Streets. Please refer to Condition of Approval No. 25 in Exhibit B. Conclusion: Minor clarifications and modifications incorporated in the project design do not affect the Findings of Fact recommended for approval of General Plan Amendment No. 11-05 and Conditional Use Permit No. I 1-16, as stated in the August 20,2012 Staff Report. Memo to Mayor&Common Council GPA 11-05& CUP 11-16 Meeting Date:September 17,2012 Page 2 Recommendation: That the hearing be closed and the Resolution be adopted,which: • Adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring/Reporting Plan, and • Approves General Plan Amendment No. 11-05 and Conditional Use Permit No. 11-16 based on the Findings of Fact contained in the Staff Report to the Planning Commission and subject to the amended Conditions of Approval.

The applicant's representatives contacted the Colton Water Department over a year ago to disc uss any potential concerns they mi ght have. The response from Colton was that they would work through the project planner and City staff. Summary The City of Colton expressed concerns in the following areas: Hvdroloav/Water Duality One of the primary concerns expressed by the City of Colton relates to groundwater contamination in close proximity to production water wells operated by the City of Colton on property adjacent to the project site. They have expressed concer n about impacts from significant amounts of percolated water on-site with high levels of contaminants. However, the area immediately adjacent to their well contains the proposed building and paved areas, so that the areas withi n approximately 200 feet of their we II is paved or build ing. All customer, employee, and vehic le processing areas are paved. When vehicles are received on-site, they are moved Into the building, where all Fluids and hazardous materials are removed from the vehicles. Batteries, tires, engines, and drive trains are all removed from vehicles prior to the vehicles being moved to storage areas. The removed parts are all stored in covered racks such that rain water would not fall upon these parts. Removed Fluids are stored in sealed containers on impervious surfaces with containment areas and filters to capture any spills. Vehicles moved to storage areas are essentially only vehicle bodies, with no significant source of potential contaminants. Forklifts used on site will be propane powered and properly maintained, so there is no potential for significant contaminants even from spills relating to forklift operations. A Water Quality Management Plan is required by rules and Condition of Approval 11 to be su bmitted for review and approval b y the City of San Bernardino. The project also includes catch basin filters, oil separators, and a vegetate d catch basin to filter stormwater prior to percolation into the soil. Regular monitoring of this plan Is required to be regularly reported to appropriate agencies. Ther efore, there will not be sign ificant levels of contaminants that would percolate Into the ground. Transportation/Traffic The City of Colton expressed concerns regarding trucks using Mt. Vernon Avenue to access the 1- 10. As further discussed later in this letter, the most likely route would be for vehicles would be Mt. Vernon to Mill Street to the I-215. However, in a ny case only two peak hour truck trips consisting of tow tr ucks, up to Class 6 (medi um-heavy duty trucks) are projected from It his site toward Mt. Vernon Avenue. This is a less than significant impact. www.hogleireland.com Apple Auto Dismantling - Responses to City of Colton Comments September 5, 2012 Page 2 Air Duality The City of Colton expressed concerns regarding review of the air q uality analysis by SCAQMD. SCAQMD did subsequently review the Initial Study and provided comments regarding localized significance thresholds, construction emissions and operational emissions. Their comments were addressed in a letter to Aron Liang, dated August 17, 2012. No signific ant impacts were anticipated in these areas, ho wever, additional discussion and analysis was provided to demonstrate that no significant impacts result in any of these areas. Aesthetics The City of Colton expressed concerns regarding visual impacts on Mt. Vernon Avenue and Mill Street. Mt. Vernon A venue is over 1,350 east of the project site, with a significant number of Intervening commercial and residential structures. Mill Street is approximately 1,000 feet south of vehicle storage areas on the project site with an 6.5 acre electrical substation site and parcels with considerable number of trees separating Mill Street from the project site. No significant views of vehicles stored on the site are anticipated, except from the elevated Mill Street Bridge. Responses Further information is provided in the discussion of City of Colton comments In the following: Hvdroloov and Water Duality This item was addres sed by Vincent Kleppe, PE, th a project engineer in a letter to Aron Liang, dated August 31, 2012 (see Attachment 2). A preliminary Water Quai ity Management Plan (WQMP) was submitted for the project that Wen tified Best Ma nagement Practices (BMPs) to prevent pollutant discharges in st ormwater runoff during operation of the proposed dismantling facility. The City of Colton requested that the WQMP be revised to address organic compounds as a pollutant of concern and that the project categorization be clarified as commercial/industrial over 100,000 sq. ft. These minor revisions have been made to the WQMP. The City of Colton also commented on the project hydro logy study and requested additional technical details regarding treatment of stormwater. The project engineer addressed these concerns in Attachment 2 noting that because vehicle processing will occur indoors and that stor mwater filtration systems will be installed, no substantial contamination of site runoff could occur. When a vehicle is received at the facility, it is assessed for availability and value of parts and categorization as a full-service of self- service vehicle. The vehicle will have all hazardous materials removed, including batteries, engine oil, gear oil, antifreeze, brake fluid, fuel, and compressed gases. Hazardous materials removal is done inside the facility, preventing any potential for outside contamination. Hazardous materials are recycled or disposed of in accordance with st ate and federal regulations. The vehicles engine and transmission are removed inside the facility an d prepared for storage. This eliminates any potential for outdoor contamination if any fluids were not ful ly evacuated d uring the hazardous materials removal stage. The vehicle is placed in the full-service area or the self-service area of the yard. Full-service vehicle parts are removed by facility employees due to the higher value of the vehicle. Sel f-service vehicle parts are r emoved by customers. A fter all usable parts are removed from the vehicle or it otherwise becomes obsolete, the vehicle is recycled. Any remaining parts and any recyclable metals are removed from the vehicle, and then it Is crushed. The crushed vehicle and recyclable metals are then sold a recycling If acility, completing the processing of the vehicle. Because no new i mpacts were i dentified in response to these comments, no new mitigation is required and Impacts will remain less than significant. Transportation and Traffic The City of Colton requested that the potential increase in truck trips on Mt. Vernon Avenue be addressed. The project will not result in an appreciable Increase in heavy-duty truck trips. The largest trucks anticipated to visit the project site will be tow trucks, up to Class 6 (medium-heavy duty trucks). The project traffic study indicates that morning peak hour traffic generated from the project site will be 103 daily trips. Based on project trip distribution, 32 of the trips will head east Apple Auto Dismantling - Responses to City of Colton Comments September 5, 2012 Page 3 along either Walnut Street or Ria Ito Avenue. Of these trips, approximately seven percent will be light-heavy duty or greater In size, based on the st andard fleet mix used in the project air quality analysis, for a total of two peak hour truck trips heading in the direction of Mt. Vernon A venue. These two trucks could take Mt. Vernon Avenue south towards Interstate 10; however, considering it is over two miles away, it is anticipated that these vehicle will take Interstate 215 because It is less than a mile from the project site. Traffic Impacts related to truck traffic will not be substantial and traffic impacts remain less than significant. Furthermore, the project Is subject to Condition of Approval 10 that requires all delive ry trucks to be routed from Rialto Avenue to Muscott Street to Walnut Street. To further strengthen this requirement, Condition of Approval 10 will be revised prior to project approval to require the facility operator to install signage at project exists indicating left-turn only, directing traffic left on Walnut Street towards Rialto Avenue. Air Quality Air quality comments received from South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) on August 16, 2012 are addressed by Hogle-Ireland un der separate cover (see Attachment 3). Air quality impacts will remain less than significant. Aesthetics The City of Colton requested that the stacking of automobiles be addressed. The Initial Study discussion of visual quality (Section I.c) noted that the project will be screened by an 8-foot wall that will screen the project site from surrounding uses. Furthermore, the project is subject to Condition of Approval 23 that req uires a 12-foot fence along the eastern property boundary to screen proposed covered rack storage (see Attachme nt 4). Full-service and self-service vehicles will not be stacked and t herefore will not be v isible by surrounding uses. Veh icles crushed for recycling are not stored on-site. They are immediately loaded onto a truck f or hauling to the recycling facility. Th ese components of th a project will ensure that vehicles are n of visible by surrounding land uses. This information merely clarifies the discussion provided in the Initial Study and no new impacts have been identified.

These wells produce approximately 306 million gallons of water per year for the City., Pollutants. of concern from.an auto dismantling operation are primarily petroleum hydrocarbons and related automotive,fluids. At the, Planning Commission hearing on July 25, 2012, staff from the City of Calton requested(verbally and in writing)a 30-day continuance In the hearing to allow time for review of the water quality management plan, traffic study, air quality analysis, and -other technical studies -used to mAe the determination-,of less align signifrcanY impact in the Initial Study. The San Bernardino Planning Commission 'declined the City s,"request and approved the Conditional Use Permit, with comments that the City could comment during the interval between'.the Planning Commission `hearing and the City Council hearing on the General Plan Amendment'&Zone Change. We have been provided With the supporting technical studies,completed oqr review of the proposed Initial Study/MND,and offer the following comments: cmcCENM ' 650 N.W C".Dri (909)7]0-509 ._. ":City of San Bernardino 6 2 AttdChnT2ttt2: August 1 ; 012 'Hydrology/iNater Quality ' 'The proposed pro)eR represents significant potential for offshie runoff of pollutants and "percolation of pollutants through the pervious areas which comprise approximately -160,000 SF-including the open space;and detention basin. - The project's WaterQuality Manaeement Plan(WQMP)includes an'adequate list of Best 'Management: Practices (BMPs) and`mitigation,'measures: However, the treatment control strategy excludes organic compounds (see Table of page 19 of the WQNip) treatment which is a pollutant of concern listed in the Table on Page 6 of the WQMp.' _ This inconsistency needs to be clarified as a primary pollutant of concern from this type of operation includes automotive fluids that contain many organic compounds. Further, there are some inconsistencies in the description of the project category (Le.,shown as :commercial/industrial-over 100,000 .sq. ft on page 2 on the WQMP and as an automotive tepair shop category on page 16). The project's hydrologic study detailed mostly the runoff:potential related to the :amount of pervious and impervious areas of the project. There is insufficient data to analyze the potential impact to underlying groundwater or well intrusion from the percolation of pollutants that may occur at the site considering the close proximity of production wells. The study doesnot contain a discussion of potential Impacts on any of the City of Colton production wells or the description of a worst case scenario event. The City is also very concerned that the longterm operation of this facility,:located in an area located,outside our jurisdictional boundaries and in dose proximity to existing production wells,will expose these wells to spills over an eidended period of time from :autornotivefluids and forklift operations(i.e.,hydra ulkfluid,gasoline,oil,etc.). in summary, additional technical `information' should be provided related to the potential impacts on the adjacent wells as discussed above. New mitigation measures should include possible groundwater monitoring (test wells),or increased impervious areas that directs runoff through treatment systems prior to release to retention basins or storm drain channels to,minimize impacts that may arisefrom sign ificarit amounts of percolated-water on-site with high levels of.contaminants. Transportation/Traffic The Initial Study,should address the potential for increases in truck trips on Mt.Vemon . Avenue,as an alternate route to the 1-10 Freeway(instead of Mill St.to 1-215); , Mitigation shouldbe lncluded,as needed,to ensure that trucks.do not use Mt.Vernon to access 1-10.; Air uali City of Colton staff contacted SCAQMD staff to determine whether they had commented'on the initial 5tudy/MND SCAQMD staff Informed the City.that they had not reviewed any in documents associated with-the-project, and in fact, CRY of'San Bernardino Attachment '1 August 16;2012 Page 3 were not aware of the project. We understand thata copy of the Initial Study/MND has `.sincebeenforwardedtoSCA IMDandstaffisin lieprocessafpreparingcomments. Aesthetics The Iditial Study should directly address the visual impacts from stacking of automobiles; A mitigation measure should be considered that will limit the height of ve a e.stacking so as not to be visible from ML Vernon Ave and Mill Street(exceptTrom the Mill Street bridge,from which Views of the site:are unavoidable). ' Due to the significant weaknesses in the Initial Study identified inAhis letter the Cuy of Colton requests,that:the City Council hearing.on this Item be continued uppl.an :-adequate and'acceptable environmental document Is prepared, We would appreciate an opportunity to review any updated/revised technical,studies before the amended :Initial Study is finalized and a new Notice of Availabillty'is issued.

Hydrology/Water Quality The treatment control strategy will include addressing organic compounds as a pollutant of concern as listed In the table on page 6 of the WQMP. The table on page 19 of the WQMP has been changed to include organic compounds. The table on page 16 of the WQMP has also been changed to correspond with the table on page 2 with the project category as commercial/industrial over 100,000 sq.ft. Our understanding from the owner as to the daily operation of the facility is that the new vehicles brought to the site will first be housed Inside a contained building,as further described in the"Dailey Business Procedures"section below,where all fluids and batteries will be removed,then the engines and transmissions will be removed and stored in covered racks over an impervious surface outside the building. Rain water will not be allowed to fall on the stored motors and transmissions. The vehicle's brake system will also be drained of fluids,and then set inside the body of the vehicle which will then be placed in the yard on the pervious surface for further dismantling. The fluid removal process takes place inside a building where spills can be contained. If a spill were to occur there are BMP s that will be followed to prevent the fluids from reaching any pervious surfaces and becoming a contamination threat to groundwater. See the"Spill Prevention and Clean-up Plan"section below for more information. Once the cars are placed on the pervious surface their potential for contamination are negligible since their fluids have been removed and they no longer represent a threat to become a significant source of pollutant runoff from the site. The"treatment train" included for the project site will include three steps for the mitigation of pollutants,of concern for the project. Manufactured catch basin inserts for all catch basins located in the impervious areas around project site. The site at this time will include an oil separator. The final BM incorporated to the site is the extended detention basin with a grass lined bottom which has a medium level of effectiveness for the removal of the pollutants of concern for the project site.

The operation of the facility will consistently follow the good housekeeping practices,as further described in the"Good House Keeping"section below, for a typical auto recycling operation including spill prevention,control&cleanup. Information outlining these practices is included in the WQMP as a guideline,and also in both the construction Storm water Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP),and the industrial SWPPP that will be prepared for the site as described in their respective sections below. The two documents included are BMP SC-11"Spill Prevention,Control&Cleanup"&Automotive Services— Auto Recycling and each outlines,in detail,the Best Management Practices and mitigation measures for the project site. These two documents also list references,resources,and for more information. Industrial Permit SWPPP The project will obtain State Water Resources Control Board National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES)General Permit coverage for industrial operations and develop a site specific SWPPP, Discharges of storm water and non-storm water will be regulated under the provisions of the state permit. A site specific SWPPP will be developed to outline the procedures that will be implemented and followed in order to reduce or prevent storm water or non-storm water discharges. Best Management Practices will be implemented throughout the entire project. The SWPPP will also detail the methods of monitoring the site for discharges and forthe sampling of storm water entering and leaving the site. The monitoring program will monitor the quality of the storm water discharge and measure the effectiveness of the BMP's. The legally responsible parties will be identified in the SWPPP. Regular site inspections will be performed by City officials to verify compliance. Additionally a State certified QSP will perform regular site inspections and runoff effluent testing to verify compliance. Inspection reports and test results will be provided to the State Water Board as required by the General Permit. State WDID The state WDID is the Waste Discharge Identification number given to project sites when covered under the General Permit.The project site has no State WDID#at this time. The WDID number will be applied for as final site design nears completion. Construction SWPPP The construction SWPPP is for projects during the construction phase and is typically terminated after the construction is complete and the site is stabilized to prevent erosion. During construction the site is covered under the General Permit for storm water and non-storm water discharges. A site specific SWPPP will be developed to outline the procedures that will be implemented and followed in order to reduce or prevent storm water or non-storm water discharges and eroded soil from leaving the site. Best Management Practices will be implemented throughout the entire project for the duration of the construction phase. The SWPPP will also detail the methods of monitoring the site for discharges and for the sampling of storm water entering and leaving the site. The monitoring program will monitor the quality of the storm water discharge and measure the effectiveness of the BMP's.The legally responsible parties will be identified in the SWPPP. Additionally a State certified QSP will perform regular site inspections and runoff effluent testing to verify compliance. Inspection reports and test results will be provided to the State Water Board as required by the General Permit. 2 Attachment 2 Sol[]Prevention&Clean-up Plan Spill Prevention Safeguards,such as diking or berming,will be installed to stop accidental releases at dismantling &storage areas. Waste fluid storage containers will be placed at convenient and safe locations to avoid having to move waste fluids long distances. Containers and tanks will be stored on a concrete or Impermeable surface and under cover.All containers will be labeled according to content and hazard characteristics.All drums containing chemicals will be kept away from sumps and drains at all times. Spill cleanup equipment will be provided at locations where spills are most likely to occur. MSDS sheets and other safety materials that identify types of fluids that have the potential to spill,indicate whether these fluids are hazardous or toxic,list appropriate safety equipment to be worn,and specify correct materials and procedures to use to clean up the spill will be posted on site. Cleanup procedures, including the use of dry absorbent materials or other cleanup methods to collect,dispose of,or recycle spilled or leaked fluids will also be posted.The site operator will maintain an adequate supply of dry absorbent material onsite will post their locations throughout the facility. Used absorbent materials will be disposed of in sealed containers. Liquids&dry materials will never be poured down a storm drain. Drip pans,plastic sheets,or canvas tarps will be placed beneath vehicles, parts,and equipment during maintenance and dismantling activities.If any parts are removed,they will be placed in a drip pan. Drip pans will never be left unattended when they contain hazardous materials. Clean-up Oil or other fluids spilled during parts removal will be contained within the designated area inside the designated spill containment structure. There will be no drains inside the containment structure. Observed spills and leaks will be captured and cleaned up as soon as possible using dry absorbents,drip pan,towel,mops,pads,and booms. Spilled fluids will be kept from entering drains by using drain mats or plugs. Soils with spilled fluids will be completely removed and disposed of to prevent rainwater from carrying pollutants to local drain system and the detention basin. All spills will be documented and kept on file at the dismantling facility. Daily Business Procedures An in-coming vehicle inspection Inventory will be in place to check for fluid leaks and for unwanted materials In the vehicles. An organized inventory of materials used at the facility will be maintained at all times. All vehicles will be dismantled and have all fluids drained indoors in contained areas where no fluids can reach any drains. Engines,transmissions will be kept under cover on impervious after being removed from the vehicle. All parts cleaning operations will be performed indoors in designated areas. Parts will be cleaned by using minimal amounts of solvents or detergents. Cleaning fluids will be reused or recycled where practical. Spent cleaning solutions will be removed by a waste hauler or recycler. Phosphate-free biodegradable detergents will be used at this facility. Detergent-based or water-based cleaning systems will be considered in place of organic solvent degreasers. Good House Keeoina Good housekeeping practices will be in place at all times. There will be an inventory of vehicles, parts, materials and supplies on hand. Visual inspections of entire operation will be in place daily. There will 3 Attachment 2 be a storm water management policy in place for all employees to follow. This policy will be available and posted at all times. Employees will be trained under this policy when hired,and refreshed annually. The training will include monitoring the customers for spill prevention. Customers will sign a form making them aware of the pollutant concerns and making them responsible for preventing spills. Storm drain inlets will be labeled with storm water pollution message. Drip pans will not be left outside or unattended! All brake fluid,antifreeze,window washer fluid, Freon,fuel,batteries,and mercury containing switcheswill be removed prior to exposure to customers&vehicle placement in unpaved areas.Wastes will be stored in covered areas. Storage containers of all fluids and waste will be labeled. WQMP Treatment train The"treatment train"included for the project site will include three steps for the mitigation of pollutants of concern. Manufactured catch basin inserts will be installed in all catch basins located in the impervious areas around project site. These catch basin fitters have a high removal efficiency of gross pollutants and suspended solids,including heavy metals,oil/grease and nutrients. The treatment train will also include two oil separators. The oil separators will remove freely dispersed oil and other liquid pollutants from industrial discharges. These systems will remove 99%of free oil droplets as small as 60 microns.The final 8MP incorporated to the site is the extended detention basin with a grass tined bottom which has a medium level of effectiveness for the removal of sediment,metals,bacteria,oil& grease and organics. Again,the planned operating procedure for this facility does not allow for the hazardous fluids to be present in the vehicles once they leave the spill containment area.

We have included responses herein. Summary. SCAQMD submitted comments on the Initial Study in response to a request by the City of Colton. Three topics were addressed tha It included (1) localized significance thresholds, (2) construction equipment emission factors, and (3) emissions fr am automobile crushing and processing. In response, we analyzed criteria pollutant emissions in light of localized significance thresholds and found that impacts will be less t han significant. Secon dly, emissions from construction equipment are val id and cons istent with guidance provided by the California Air Resources Board (ARB). Finally, automobile crushing and processing emissions, when considered with mobile and other operational source emissions, will remain less than significant. A detailed discussion of each t opic is in cluded below. Th is information does n of Identify any new or substantially increased impacts. Localized Significance Thresholds. SCAQMD requested that potentially significant localized impacts due to criteria pollutant emissions be examined in the Initial Study. Localized significance thresholds (LST) and analysis is recommended by SCAQMD, but not required; however, for the sake of disclosure and to ensure th at significant localized impacts do not occur, an LST analysis is provided herein. Construction-related criteria pollutant emissions and potentially significant localized impacts were evaluated pursuant the SCAQMD Final Localized Significance Thresholds Methodology. This methodology provides screening tables for o ne, two, and five acre project scenarios. Maxi mum daily oxides of nitrogen (NOx)r carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (P M10 and PM'.') emissions will occur during site preparation activities during Phase 1 and Phase 2 of project construction. Approxi mately half of the project si to will be disturbed du ring each cons truction phase, thus the five acre screenin g analysis and worksheets have been used (see Attachment 2). Table 1 (2013 LST A nalysis) and Table 2 (2019 LST Analysis) summarize the onsite emissions as compared to the I ocal thresholds established for Source Receptor Area (SRA) 34 (Centr al San Bernardino Valley). A 25 meter receptor distance was used to ref! ect the proximity of nearby residents. Construction activities during Phase I and Phase 2 will not exceed the screening thresholds for locally significant criteria pollutant impacts. Construction impacts remain less than significant. www.hogleireland.com Apple Auto Dismantling SCAQMD Responses Attachment 3 Table 1 2013 L5T Anal sis WHIM INIMMA Demolition 69.8 133.8 6.5 5.9 Site Preparation 81.0 157.9 10.1 7.5 Grading 55.7 101.3 5.5 4.9 Building Construction 38.6 68.6 3.9 3.6 Paving & Coating 44.5 74.6 5.2 4.8 Maximum 81.0 157.9 10.1 7.5 Threshold 1,746 270 14 8 51 nificant?

No No No No Construction Emissions. SCAQMD recommends using 0 FFROAD2011 in the CaIEEMod run instead of the Air Resources Board (ARB) recommendation of reducing load factors for construction equipment by 33 percent to compensate for exce ssive estimates present in OFFROAD2007. While we recognize that OFFROAD2011 is preferred, this project was initiated during the transition from OFFROAD2007 to OFFROAD2011 and CaIEEMod has yet to be updated with the new emissions data (as noted in the com ment letter). ARB provided guidance on the use of OFFROAD2007 at the Workshops on Information Regarding the Off-Road, Truck and Bus and Drayage Truck Regulations workshop on September 3, 2010 (see Attachment 3). ARB recognized that OFFROAD200 7 load factors are 20 to 50 percent too high and re commended a 33 percent reduction to ensure consistency with findings for th a off-road eq uipment testing and manufa cturer data. This recommendation and data provides substantial evidence for the methodology used in the Initial Study air quality analysis. Operational Emissions. SCAQMD notes that while mobile operational sources of criteria pollutant emissions were analyzed, specific auto dismantling operational emissions were not. Considering the small size of the operation, we typically would not analyze emissions beyond those included in CaIEEMod; however, for the sake of disclosure, we have provided the emissions estimates herein. The dismantling facility will crush a maximum of 10 cars per day. Auxiliary equipment includes Five propane powered forklifts and six di esel-powered aerial car lifts. Daily emissions from dismantling facilities were modeled using the same methodology used in CaIEEMod, as follows: 2 Apple Auto Dismantling Attachment 3 SCAQMD Responses Emission..... _2](EF, *Pop, *AvgHP,. *Load, *Activity,) Where: EF =Emissions Factorprocessedfrom OFFROAD2011 (grams 1hp-hour) Pop =Number of Pieces of Equipment AvgHP =Maximum Average Horsepower Load =Load Factor Activity =Hours of Operation i =Equipment Type Automobile crushers take approximately one minute to crush a vehicle.

Our understanding from the owner as t0 the daily operation 0f the facility iS that the new vehicles brought to the site will first be housed inside a contained building,as further described in the"Dailey Business Procedures"section below,where all fluids and batteries will be removed,then the engines and transmissions will he removed and stored incovered racks over aoimpervious surface outside the building. Rain water will not he allowed t0 fall onthe stored motors and transmissions. The vehicle's brake system will also be drained of fluids,and then set inside the body of the vehicle which will then be placed in the yard on the pervious surface for further dismantling. The fluid removal process takes place inside a building where spills can be contained. If a spill were t0 occur there are 8W1P's that will he followed to prevent the fluids from reaching any pervious surfaces and becoming acontamination threat togroundwater. See the"Spill Prevention and Clean-up Plan" section below for more information. Once the cars are placed un the pervious surface their potential for contamination are negligible since their fluids have been removed and they no longer represent a threat t0 become a significant source 0f pollutant runoff from the site.

Industrial Permit SWPPP The project will obtain State Water Resources Control Board National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)General Permit coverage for industrial operations and develop a site specific SWPPP. Discharges of storm water and non-storm water will be regulated under the provisions of the state permit. A site specific SWPPP will be developed to outline the procedures that will be implemented and followed in order to reduce or prevent storm water or non-storm water discharges. Best Management Practices will be implemented throughout the entire project. The SWPPP will also detail the methods of monitoring the site for discharges and for the sampling of storm water entering and leaving the site. The monitoring program will monitor the quality of the storm water discharge and measure the effectiveness of the BMP's. The legally responsible parties will be identified in the SWPPP. Regular site inspections will be performed by City officials to verify compliance. Additionally a State certified QSP will perform regular site inspections and runoff effluent testing to verify compliance. Inspection reports and test results will be provided to the State Water Board as required by the General Permit. State WDID The state WDID is the Waste Discharge Identification number given to project sites when covered under the General Permit.The project site has no State WDID#at this time. The WDID number will be applied for as final site design nears completion. Construction SWPPP The construction SWPPP is for projects during the construction phase and is typically terminated after the construction is complete and the site is stabilized to prevent erosion. During construction the site is covered under the General Permit for storm water and non-storm water discharges. A site specific SWPPP will be developed to outline the procedures that will be implemented and followed in order to reduce or prevent storm water or non-storm water discharges and eroded soil from leaving the site. Best Management Practices will be implemented throughout the entire project for the duration of the construction phase. The SWPPP will also detail the methods of monitoring the site for discharges and for the sampling of storm water entering and leaving the site. The monitoring program will monitor the quality of the storm water discharge and measure the effectiveness of the BMP's.The legally responsible parties will be identified in the SWPPP. Additionally a State certified QSP will perform regular site inspections and runoff effluent testing to verify compliance. Inspection reports and test results will be provided to the State Water Board as required by the General Permit. Spill Prevention &Clean-up Plan 2 Spill Prevention Safeguards,such as diking or berming,will be installed to stop accidental releases at dismantling &storage areas. Waste fluid storage containers will be placed at convenient and safe locations to avoid having to move waste fluids long distances. Containers and tanks will be stored on a concrete or impermeable surface and under cover.All containers will be labeled according to content and hazard characteristics.All drums containing chemicals will be kept away from sumps and drains at all times. Spill cleanup equipment will be provided at locations where spills are most likely to occur. MSDS sheets and other safety materials that identify types of fluids that have the potential to spill, indicate whether these fluids are hazardous or toxic, list appropriate safety equipment to be worn,and specify correct materials and procedures to use to clean up the spill will be posted on site. Cleanup procedures, including the use of dry absorbent materials or other cleanup methods to collect,dispose of,or recycle spilled or leaked fluids will also be posted.The site operator will maintain an adequate supply of dry absorbent material onsite will post their locations throughout the facility. Used absorbent materials will be disposed of in sealed containers. Liquids&dry materials will never be poured down a storm drain. Drip pans, plastic sheets,or canvas tarps will be placed beneath vehicles, parts,and equipment during maintenance and dismantling activities.If any parts are removed,they will be placed in a drip pan. Drip pans will never be left unattended when they contain hazardous materials. Clean-up Oil or other fluids spilled during parts removal will be contained within the designated area inside the designated spill containment structure. There will be no drains inside the containment structure. Observed spills and leaks will be captured and cleaned up as soon as possible using dry absorbents,drip pan, towel, mops, pads,and booms. Spilled fluids will be kept from entering drains by using drain mats or plugs. Soils with spilled fluids will be completely removed and disposed of to prevent rainwater from carrying pollutants to local drain system and the detention basin. All spills will be documented and kept on file at the dismantling facility. Daily Business Procedures An in-coming vehicle inspection inventory will be in place to check for fluid leaks and for unwanted materials in the vehicles. An organized inventory of materials used at the facility will be maintained at all times. All vehicles will be dismantled and have all fluids drained indoors in contained areas where no fluids can reach any drains. Engines,transmissions will be kept undercover on impervious after being removed from the vehicle. All parts cleaning operations will be performed indoors in designated areas. Parts will be cleaned by using minimal amounts of solvents or detergents. Cleaning fluids will be reused or recycled where practical. Spent cleaning solutions will be removed by a waste hauler or recycler. Phosphate-free biodegradable detergents will be used at this facility. Detergent-based or water-based cleaning systems will be considered in place of organic solvent degreasers. Good House Keeoin¢ Good housekeeping practices will be in place at all times. There will be an inventory of vehicles,parts, materials and supplies on hand. Visual inspections of entire operation will be in place daily. There will be a storm water management policy in place for all employees to follow. This policy will be available 3 and posted at all times. Employees will be trained under this policy when hired,and refreshed annually. The training will include monitoring the customers for spill prevention. Customers will sign a form making them aware of the pollutant concerns and making them responsible for preventing spills. Storm drain inlets will be labeled with storm water pollution message. Drip pans will not be left outside or unattended. All brake fluid, antifreeze,window washer fluid, Freon,fuel, batteries,and mercury containing switches will be removed prior to exposure to customers&vehicle placement in unpaved areas.wastes will be stored in covered areas. Storage containers of all fluids and waste will be labeled. WQMP Treatment train The"treatment train" included for the project site will include three steps for the mitigation of pollutants of concern. Manufactured catch basin inserts will be installed in all catch basins located in the impervious areas around project site. These catch basin filters have a high removal efficiency of gross pollutants and suspended solids,including heavy metals,oil/grease and nutrients. The treatment train will also include two oil separators. The oil separators will remove freely dispersed oil and other liquid pollutants from industrial discharges. These systems will remove 99%of free oil droplets as small as 60 microns.The final BMP incorporated to the site is the extended detention basin with a grass lined bottom which has a medium level of effectiveness for the removal of sediment, metals,bacteria,oil& grease and organics. Again,the planned operating procedure for this facility does not allow for the hazardous fluids to be present in the vehicles once they leave the spill containment area. As an additional line of defense to prevent pollutants from leaving the site,a vegetated Swale and additional oil water separator will be incorporated into the site design. The outdoor vehicle storage areas will be graded so that runoff will be directed to a grass lined swale on either the east or west property line. The Swale will direct the flow south towards the detention basin. Prior to entering the detention basin a perforated riser inlet will direct the water through another oil water separator. The travel through the grass lined swale is a traditional method for removal of pollutants from water. Weekly landscape maintenance(grass mowing)will provide a mechanism for collection and removal of contaminants. The additional oil water separator will help ensure that neither system will be overwhelmed by stormwater runoff.
