The Di, offers several recommendations regarding the
excavation two percolation ponds (A.P. #040-310-006) being
proposed ol xy Avenue.
Ponds t , pro,,tide a habitat for mosquitoes to bread in, if
not proporly 4.--onstructed. We recommend constructing a steep side
olope along the banks of the percolation pond -to reduce emergent
vegetation. An aeration or agitation system in, the pond will
further eliminate problems by reducing stagnant standing water.
The Knudsen property has a similar system in place with one of
their two existing open ponds. This should help prevent mosquito
problems to tho adjacent residences, including the New Poster
Place subdivision,
ThoLe comments are ..�,,Astent with the District's adopted
policy called 'iGuidelin(,,,,. cl-lacklist and Standards for Vector
Prevention in Proposed li,it�q,,Jopments",

These test results are from independent lab report of waste water dated June 94.
The source of the wasta in question is Etom the plant proaGOOing and cleaning operations
related to the bottling and packaging of fruit juices and, from the blow down of boiler and
cooling tower operation. It does not contain any domestic waste.
After use this effluent enters our waste water treatment system where it Undergoes pk
adjustmentj anaerobic digestiohi aeration, and solids separation prior to being released to
the proposed percolation Ponds.0dor control is rarely neoded in the. aeration Ponds but when
required it is treated with a natural liquid live to bacteria complete digestion and
control odor. The waste water is constantly recirculated through the anaerobic portion of
the system

AGENDA REPORT
TO: Ho,arable Chair and Planning Commission
I, FROM: Barry K. Hogan, Planning Manager
BY: Thomas Last, S-nior Planner
DATE November 17, 1994
REQUEST: Use Permit for GarryWagner (applicant), Knudsen & Sons Inc (owner) on AP#f Ofta10-M
A request for a Use Permit to allow two percolation ponds, on property in the M-1 (Light Industrial) J
zone. Located on the northeast corner of Midway and Speedway Ave, in the Chico area.
RELATED
ITEMS: None
FOR: Planning Commission Meeting of January 12, 1995
ABSTRACT: This request will modify the final treatment of wastewater generated from an existing juice
processing operation, It will not conflict with neighboring uses, No major issues have been Identified. Staff
recommends approval of the project subject to the findings and conditions listed in this report,
PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS: This is a request to 'replace an existing, failing waste water leach field with
two percolation ponds. Presently; a leach field system is used for the final treatment of waste Water generated
from the Julce processing operation, An extensive treatmentsystem is utliize M prior to waste water being
distributed into the ieachlines. The overall treatment system has evolved over the past eighteen years. However,
the seven leachlines have never been modified or added to, resulting in a failing system, This has also resulted
in some odor problems. The applicant now proposes to replace the leach field with two percolation ponds,
An average 350000 gallons of waste water is treated daily, depending on the type of fruit being processed. A
maximum 60,000 gallons are treated on peak days. Once the juice is created, waste water goes through a series
of treatment phases, After most of the solids are removed, waste water is anaerobically treated for approximately
two days. Treated Water is then pumped into the aeration pond. Currently, treated waste water enters the leach
field system after It leaves the aeration pond, A rotation system is used for each of the leach lines: When the
system was first in place one leach line Was used per day, then totated to a different line. Now two or three lines
are required each day.
The ponds are proposed to be located In the vacant field just west of the current plant site, Each pond is 155
feet by 100 feet, separated by a 40 foot raised berm, A berm, one foot above existing ground level; surrounds
the ponds, The bottom of the ponds will be two or three feet below existing ground level. After the Waste Water
leaves the aeration pond and settling tank, it will be evenly distributed through six outlets into the two ponds.
Since water leaving the aeration ponds is odorless, no odor problems are expected, In addition, waste water is
expectee- to percolate Into the ground faster than it is put into the ponds. Therefore; standing water is not
expected, Groundwater monitoring wells will be installed to test waste Water discharge,
ANALYSIS: The M-1 'zone does not specifically list percolation ponds as v, }permitted or conditionally permitted
use, However, any use the may result in objectionable odors requires a Use Permit. The M-1 zoning Is
consistent with the industrial General Plan Land Use designation, Coun:v Cocie Section 24-47 requires the
Planning Commission to find that the proposo ' irse will not impact the integrity and character of the zone in which'
the land lies. It must also find that the use is not unreasonably incompatible, or injurious to surrounding properties
or detrimental to the general health, welfare and safety of the neighboeh=4
As indicated earlier; the failing leach field has created some odor problems. The applicant has indicated that they
t have taken steps to eliminate odor problems, However, since the leach field Is failing, a new system is needed.
The County has not received any complaints and no past problems have ever been noted. An enzyme
? distribution system is recommended for the ponds in ease odors do becomo a problem. A similar system is in
place for the plant's storm water pond, Monthly water reports on each phase of treatment are submitted to the
state. No environmental problems have been identified. The system hes been tentatively approved by the
Regional Water Quality Control Board and County Environmental Health,
Staff's only other concerns are providing visual screening and safety fencing oround thea ponds. Residential uses
are located south of Speedway Avenue. Since the plant may expand to the Wort in the future, landscaping should'
be provided along Speedway Avenue rather than adjacent to the ponds. Fifiaen galicn street trees, plantedon
thirty feet centers, with five gallon shrubs, forming a 5-6 foot hedge, between the trees should be provided. The
landscaping should extend at least 300 feet west from the exiting fence line- 1„ to ?r ing the property. To maintain
consistency with the existing fence, a chainlink fence with wood slats should! .also be installed around the ponds.
ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION: An Initial Study has been prepar•-,.! by County Staff, Based upon a
review of the Initial Study, staff has determined that the project impacts can be fully mitigated with the addition
of one mitigation measure as a condition of approval for the project, A Negetive Declaration' with One mitigation
measure is recommended:
PUBLIC NOTICE AND COMMENTS: This application requires that a public h. tlhg be advertised and held, Prior
to the public hearing, notices ate mailed to all i0roperty owners within a 300" foot radius of the subject property,
bull not less than 10 parcels.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Commission approve, tho ops ..Iloa,tlon for Garry Wagner on APO

Garry J. Wagner proposed NegatIyA Declaration with 'mitigation measures regarding
environmental impacts and Use Permit to allow the construction of two percolation ponds on
property zoned M-1 (Light Industrial) located on the northeast corner of Midway and Speedway
Avenue, idh:ntifled as AP 040-310-005, Chico. (TL) (95-69)
The Commission waived the presentation of the Agenda Report'. Mr. Hogare gave a brief summary of the
project. He said this request does not conflict with neighboring uses and staff recommends approval,
He said the applicant has tentative approval by the Water Quality Control Board and Environmental Health.
He said the new ponds would eliminate odor. He noted;a letter received by Jack and Beverly Chambers;
Cammissioner Lambert asked if the tentative approval is for a waste water system or a storm water
system?
Mr. Hogan said he thoughtit was for the waste. water ponding system:
Commissioner Seegert said the analysis of the report says there are leachlines in the ground, but the leiter
from the neighbors says they are ponds,
Mr. Hogan said there are both on the property. He said the leachlines are failing and will be replaced with
the ponds.
Chairman Nelson asked how far this property was from City sewer lines?
Mr. Hogan indicated that he did not know.
The hearing was opened to the public.
Mr. Wagner, applicant, said the City sewer trunk line is not large enough to accommodate them, He said
the leachlines are failing and he wants to correct the problem before it gets worse. He said he has been
in contact With Don Dykstra of the Water Quality Control Board,
Mr, Hogan said there is a letter from Mr. Dkystra in the file.
Commissioner Lambert asked if Mr: Wagner owned the property to the west where the ponds will be
located?'
L Mr. Wagner said yes;
Commissioner Lynch asked if he was burning methane gas off the ponds?
Mr. Wagner said yes, He explained the current system,
Harold U�. IWI: gave a brief history of a waste water disposal system in
" ` the South OroVille area that failed,
He said there was a problem with files breeding on a slim layer of slime left by the system. He said the
odors Were noticed two miles away, He suggested, if the ;system creates a huisance; the company should
be required to connect to the City sewer,
Mark Carlson, adjacent property owner, uuidthe odor is offensive and has beer, offensive, He Paid there
have been some problems With noise from the business operation, He discussed the "residue left from
the Waste water discharge. He agreed there should be a stipulation that If the system fails, the applicant
Will cohnect to the sewer.

Louis Camenzind Jr., Durham, asked the Commission to stop, look, and listen. He said the project needs
hydraulic and geological surveys prior to issuing the permit. He said there are toxic problems with the j
existing ponds. He gave a brief history of the area. He said this area is a ground water re -charge area.
He was concernedWth contamination to the water table,
Chairman Nelson pointed out that the' Water Quality Control Board -ha 1oo1<au-atA1, Nro
Mr, Camenzind said the Water Quality Control' Board needs to test the water and needs to really look
closely at this site. He said this project will affect th% whole area and the underground water source. He
requested this hearing be continued to get information from County Environmental Health and the State
Water Quality Control Board on well logs in the area, He said the Environmental document was
inadequate. He commented on the environmental checklist, saying on Page 1, 1b, there will be a lot of
material moved while digging the ponds; Page 2, d, potential of Indian artifacts in the area; Page 3, 3, will
affect the underground water; Page 3, b, will affect underground water; Page 4, 3d, e, will affect water
quality; Page 41 1, potential to contaminate underground water supply; Page 5, potential of water fowl
landing in the ponds; Page 6, 81 potential to affect land uses in the future. He said staff should contact
the EPA, P.O. Box 6064, Morgan Town, WV 26506-6064 for information on these types of ponds;
Commissioner Seegert said the conditions for approval state: "Meet the requirements of the Water Quality
Control Board'.
Mr. Camenzind said there is a problem noW, what is to say It will not get worse?
Mr. Wagner said all they want is to utilize a couple of months for the leachlines to dry out. He said the
ponds are not for the long term, but are temporary.
The hearing was closed.
Commissioner Erisman asked if Condition 1 " Prior to issuance of the Use Permit, the applicant shall submit
a plan that illustrates an enzyme distribution system for the percolation ponds," has been done?
Mr. Hogan said this Will not be done until after the applicant has approval by the Commission for this
Permit, but would have to be done before the Permit is issued,
Commissioner Lambert suggested adding to Condition f, that plans be submitted to and appruved by
Environmental Health.
6mMi6sioner Lynch said to control odor, the ground should be turned under as soon as practical. He
said turning under tho sludge or residue will control the fly and odor problems;
f
l Mr. Hogan said if there is an odor problem, this permit should come back to the Commission before
requiring hookup to the sewer,
It was moved by Commissioner Lynch, seconded by Commissioner Lambert, and unanimously carried
for approval as follows:

Do Project Description and Location: A request to replace an existing, failing leach system for Waste water with
two percolation r onds. Presently, Knudsen & Sons uses a leach field system for the final treatment of Waste
water generated from.the.juice processing operation. A fairly sophisticated treatment system is utilized prior
to waste water being distributed into the le&chlines. The overall' treatment system has evolved over the past
eighteen % ears. However, the seven leachlines have never been modified or addedto, resulting In a failing
system. This has resulted 'in some odor problems: The applicant has Indicated that they have addressed.
neighbors complaints regarding odors. The County hav, not received any complaints and no past problems
have ever been noted. Monthly water reports on each phase of treatment are submitted to the state. No
environmental problems have been Identified. The applicant now rtoposes to replace the leach field with
two percolation 'ponds. After the waste water leaves the aeration pond and settling tank, it Is evenly
distributed Into the two ponds. The system has been tentatively approved by the Regional. Water Quality
Control Board and County Environmental Health. Additional project description and area description cao
be found In the data sheet at the 'end of this document,
