Richards, Director of Community Development DATE: July 16, 1990 (CC Meeting of 7- 25 -90) SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION OF COUNTY HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT (TANNER) PLAN Background On July 2, 1990, the Planning Commission adopted a resolution recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance amending various sections of the Moorpark Zoning Code to require that applicable projects are consistent with the Ventura County Hazardous Waste Management Plan's general areas and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. Staff's report to the Planning Commission dated June 25 is attached and provides background information related to the proposed Zoning Code changes. Discussion As identified on page 2 of the attached staff report, state law requires cities to take action to implement an approved County Hazardous Waste Management Plan. Staff is proposing to accomplish this by adoption of amendments to the Zoning Code to require entitlement permits to be consistent with the portions of the County Plan which identify specific sites or siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. Since the City is considering adoption of the new County Zoning Code, staff is proposing that the Council adopt the Hazardous Waste Management Plan ordinance changes concurrently with adoption of the new County Code. (A public hearing is also scheduled on July 25, 1990, for consideration of adoption of the new County Zoning Code as the City of Moorpark Zoning Code,' 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 The Honorable City Council July 16, 1990 Page 2 As shown on Exhibit A of the attached staff report, the proposed new Zoning Code language will require all applicable planned development permit, conditional use permit, variance, and zoning clearance decisions to be consistent with the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan Siting Criteria. The County of Ventura has already taken action to adopt the Zoning Code changes identified on Exhibit A. Recommendation Staff is recommending that the City Council direct staff to incorporate the zoning code changes identified on Exhibit A into the County Zoning Code (as amended by the City Planning Commission) which is under consideration for City adoption.

Richards, Director of Community Development !� DATE: June 25, 1990 (PC Meeting of 7 -2 -90) SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION OF COUNTY HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT (TANNER) PLAN Background In 1986, Assembly Bill 2948 (Tanner) was adopted, requiring the preparation of a hazardous waste management plan by each County in California. As required by law, the County of Ventura prepared a hazardous waste management plan which includes the following information: An analysis of the hazardou<, waste stream generated in the County; A description and inventory o-f existing facilities which treat and /or dispose of hazardous wastes; An analysis of the potential for recycling hazardous waste and for reducing the volume and hazard of the waste at the source of generation; Recommendations for the management of hazardous wastes produced by businesses and households; A determination of the need for additional hazardous waste facilities; - An evaluation of potential :,ites for new facilities; and A statement of goals, objectives and policies for siting facilities and managing wastes through the year 2000; and a schedule which describes city and County actions necessary to implement the Plan through 4rie year 2000. 799 Moorpark Avenue MoorparI, 7,alifornia 93021 (805) 529 -6864 q 4 The Planning Commission June 26, 1990 Page 2 The County's Plan is comprised of two documents- -the Policy and Implementation Document and the Technical Document. On November 15, 1988, the Ventura County Board of Supervisors certified a Final EIR for the Plan and released the Draft Plan to the cities in Ventura County for review and approval. The Moorpark City Council adopted a resolution approving the Draft Plan on January 18, 1989. The State Department of Health Services approved the Ventura County Hazardous Waste Management Plan on January 12, 1990. According to the State mandate (Health and Safety Code Section 25135.7.c), within 180 days after receiving written notification from the Department of Health Services that the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan has been approved, each City in the County must do one of the following: 1. Adopt a city hazardous waste management plan containing all of the elements required by Health and Safety Code Section 25135.1, which shall be consistent with the approved county plan. 2. Incorporate the applicable portions of the approved county plan by reference into the city's general plan. 3. Enact an ordinance which requires that all applicable zoning, subdivision, conditional use permit, and variance decisions are consistent with the portions of the approved county plan which identify general areas or siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. While the State mandate is that each City must accomplish one of the above actions within 180 days of State approval of the County Plan, there is no penalty for non - compliance. Discussion Staff is proposing to implement the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan by the ordinance method (No. 3 above). Adoption of an ordinance to require all entitlement permits to be consistent with the portions of the County Plan which identify specific sites or siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities is proposed to be done in conjunction with City adoption of the new County Zoning Code. (The Planning Commission previously reviewed the new County Zoning Code and recommended that the City Council adopt the updated Code.) It is staff's opinion that the City can accomplish two objectives by adopting the new County Zoning Code and the Hazardous Waste Management Plan ordinance changes concurrently. The existing City Zoning Code would require substantial modification to accomplish method No. 3, as discussed above. The new County Zoning Code would /0 The Planning Commission June 26, 1990 Page 3 require only minor modifications as identified on Exhibit A. In fact, staff obtained these proposed changes from the County Planning Division, as they are also using the ordinance method to implement the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan. (Section numbers on Exhibit A match the new County Zoning Code and may need to be revised depending on the extent of any changes made to the new County Zoning Code prior to City adoption.) As shown on Exhibit A, the proposed new Zoning Code language will require all entitlement permits to be consistent with the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan Siting Criteria. The Siting Criteria are contained in Chapter 11 of the Policy and Implementation Document. The purpose and intent of the Siting Criteria are as follows: 1. To formally establish a set of siting requirements which must be adopted and consistently used by siting jurisdictions (i.e., cities and the County) in the County of Ventura. 2. To clearly state the requirements of siting hazardous waste facilities for the benefit of the facility proponent and the public. The overall objectives of the siting criteria are to protect the residents of Southern California, ensure structural stability of the facilities; protect surface water, groundwater, air quality and environmentally sensitive area; ensure safe transportation of hazardous waste; and to make facility siting consistent with the General Plan, Zoning Ordinance and other land use policies. The hazardous waste facility siting criteria are grouped into two general categories: those applicable to residuals repositories and those applicable to all other f.aci iLities . A summary of the Ventura County Siting Criteria is attached as Exhibit B. With the exception of incineration facilities, residual repositories have the most restrictive criteria because of the permanent disposal of hazardous wastes to the land. Residual repositories are permanent disposal facilities which will accept only treated hazardous waste. The County has identified general areas where such facilities may be feasible (Exhibit C); however, the Plan does indicate that the areas identified as potential locations for residual repositories would require further screening and evaluation to identify any additional site constraints. The closest areas to Moorpark are .grouped under Site 9 and- are shown on Figure 11 -2b (Exhibit (') . Because of the restrictive criteria associated with residual repositories, it is unlikely that such a facility will be situated inywhere in Ventura County. The Planning Commission June 26, 1990 Page 4 The Plan also identifies that commercial offsite transfer, storage, treatment, and recycling facilities are preferred in industrial zones, although they can be considered in other areas if consistent with the siting criteria and if within the designated proximity (10 -20 miles) to those who may use the facility. Since the City does not currently have any M -3 Zoning, these type of facilities would not be permitted in the existing industrial areas within the City. If the City adopts the new County Zoning Code, there would be the potential for "waste treatment and disposal facilities" to locate in OS, AE, RA, or RE Zones, subject to approval of a conditional use permit and consistency with the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan Siting Criteria. Environmental Clearance Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) , an evaluation has been conducted to determine if the proposed project could significantly affect the environment. It has been found that a significant effect would not occur and that the proposal is exempt from CEQA based on Sections 15061 and 15308 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15061 identifies that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and states: "...Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA." Section 15308 exempts: "...actions taken by regulatory agencies, as authorized by State or local ordinance, to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement, or protection of the environment where the regulatory process involves procedures for protection of the environment." Recommendation Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolution (Exhibit D) recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance which requires that all applicable zoning, subdivision, conditional use permit, and variance decisions are consistent with the portions of the Ventura County Hazardous Waste Management Plan which identify specific sites or siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities, Staff does not recommend continuance of this matter due to the State mandate that cities must take action within 180 days after approval of the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan.
