4d: This project could result in the iveMoy8l Of some rice land from
Production If the 40 -acro Parcel Is ever operabed under separate
management Prom the remaining lands. Since the segregation requested
Is for financial purposes, no loss of agricultural lands should occur.
It should be noted that the subject Property Is subject to a
California Land Conservation Act agreement and any subsequent use of
the land must Conform to that contract. The contract calls for
40 -acro minimum pal -cel slze.,z.
