To keep the process moving, however, and with the Board's concurrence, I am prepared to focus on three distinct issues today. The tenor of my presentation Will be more. on a policy level, as opposed to a detailed analysis of the County's environmental review of my client's project. That more detailed review ray later be required, depending upon this Board's policy i�.tihations I would begin by asking the Board members not to view Mr. Manthei and me as adversaries of the Planning Department staff. We all share the same goal; a quality project that does not adversely impact the environment. Our basic. disagraemefit 4,z rooted in T e manner of achieving that goal My ob j,?ct`i ve today is to evolve a definitive initial study which complies with both tht spirit, and the intent of the CEQA,regulations. The decision to prepare Gln EIR or negative declaration would be a rational conclusion drawn from that study. If an 81R is required, it would be more clearly focused in scope and, consequently,, more pertinent to any land, use decision-making that will follow. I will address three issues concerning the initial study% 1. It was trot completed in accordance with State guidelines; 2. The scope of environmental investigation exceeds the intent of the State, guidelines; and 3. The enumeration of the project's impacts is unclear, and the study is internally inconsistent. y . Po� l i g Con -,i derat�i ons Where there remains a question as to whether individual septic disposal systems will be able to meet current standards, and the applicant, with this knowledge, agrees to meet those standards,, should the presumption be that the standards will be met? This policy isnotas straightforward as the previous policy because oth-,r questions are raised by ,namely: 1. Will there be further environmental review? 2. Will there be future opportunities to impose mitigations? 3. Will there be site-specific tests to determioe if the standards are met? 4. 4iould investigations, if completed, now waste financial resources and County staff time if the application is subsequently denied on other grounds.? S, Could the County attach specific conditions to the application that Mould require the discharge from systems to meet County standards? '4y suggestion is that, if all of the foregoing questions can be answered 'in the affirmative, then the presumption should be that the standard is met. Area 2 The Scope of Environmental Investigation exceeds the Intent of the State Guidelines lr� approving a residential project that is consistent with the. General Plan, a public agency shall limit its examination of environmental effects; To those which were not analyzed as significant effects in the EIR on the General Plan; and To those Which the public agency with authority to mitigate requires mitigation measures specified in the EIR on the General Plan. (Section 15183 of the State EIR guidelines and Section 21083.3 of the Public Resources Code, CEQA - see Appendix I I. _ ) The subject project is located in the area covered, by the 1982 Chico Area Land Use Plan Amendment to the Butte County General plan: An extensive EIR was » initial study for Mr. Manthei's rezone did certified for that Amendmant. The i l cable rezomitne not acknowledge the General Plan EIR, nor did it specify app on measures contained in that document. a Policy Consideration Shull the Board recognize the comms tment previously made by the adoption of the Chico Area Plan, along with the anticipated impacts associated with that Plan (and the benefits derived from the trade-off of developing to the east instead of to the west), or shall each and every application for zone changes and development permits be put through the "environmental grinder" to show that yes, indeed, each and. every one of 'these projects does in fact contribute its share of "impact" to the overall area? The requirement for an EIR on a project within the General Plan area when that project is consistent with the Plan, should provide new information and not rehash or regurgitate that which is already known. Byway of example, consider the following: The initial study for Mr. Manthei's project states (page 3, item 5, Animal Life) that a. substantial deterioration to existing fish or wildlife habitat will result from this project (deer habitat). The letter to. Ms Kathy Kelly, from -the Department of Fish and Game claims that "development of lands on designated winter range into parcels less than 20 acres minimum will adversely affect migratory deer use. -The cumulative impact ofthe proposed rezoning request will result in a significant adverse impact upon deer yselof their designated wintev range." The final EIR for the General Plan (page 168 - Department of Fish and Game, Appendix T and Appendix U) shows that the Department knew of the loss of over 14tOOO acres of grasslands on the north and east, that it originally believed this loss to be significant, but that upon reconsideration, it agreed that the trade-off in tfie general plan of saving riparian habitats on the west was a superior environmental` -goal and "losses of wildlife habitat in the grassland area east of Chico ... will be less significant than would occur in riparian areas or other critical habitat types." (These excerpts are included in Appendix 1II.) .' The same type of argument made above would relate to traffic, air quality, , public services (economic impact), fire protection, noise, growth inducing impacts, loss of open space. Area 3 Enumeration of the Project's Impacts Is Unclear, and the Study Is Internally Inconsistent Environmentaleffects and environmental impacts are synonymous. However, a significant effect is defined as "a substantial, or potentially substantial, adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic significance ..." (Sections 15358 And 15882 of the State CEQA guidelines. See Appendix II.) A significant effect is not'synonymous with either an environmental impact or an environmental effect. I Have attached the initial study (environmental checklist form] as Appendix IV, in, case Board members have not received a copy. Exam, Under Item 2 in tate chegklist, Air„ there are no 'items checked "yes" or "maybe", and one item is checked "no" C, meaning that there is a comment. The comment (2a, page 6 of the checklist) states that there would not be a significant impact, Under Item 6 of Attachment A, air quality impacts are deemed "significant impacts" requiring discussion in the EIR. Example 2' Under Item 20, Cultural Resources, in the checklist, two items have been marked "maybe" and comments on these two are on page 9 of the checklist. " The records check performed by the Anthropology Department, CSUC, indicates that a survey is not recommended for the site. Them 7 on Attachment A indicates that the project will have a significant impact: on archaeological and historical resources, Pol Conti derati ons Should the initl.al study checklist, comments, data sheet and other attachments comorise a definitive list of environmental effects, contain :a determination of Wch effects are significant, propose methods to mitigate significant effects, and should -this initial study be internally consistent and verifiable so as to allow`a "focusing of environmental concerns"? ianortant environmental document. It issurpassed.in My impression is that for most projects,the in, ial study is the most importance only by the Elk, if one is completed (in which case the initial study becomes a part of the EIR). It is "througf the initial"study that the primary goal ".., regulate activities so that major consideration is given to preventing environmental damage' can most effectively and eff`,ciently be achieved. fond usi orl Shalt it be the policy of the Board of Super"vi"sors. 1 To focus initial studies on reducing significant environmental impacts, by including a discussion. of mitigation mea, �,Ves3 2 To presume that an applicant will meet discharge standards in casea where there wilt be Further environmental .review, where there will be future opportunities to impose mitigations; where there will be titeWspecific tests to assure, standards are met, where it would be a wa>te of both financial and staff resources to co comp let more con Tete investigations, now should the project be denied and where there is an opportunity to impose conditions to the ap,7lication explicitly prohibiting discharges that would be a significant impact, and hence assure environmental preservation; 3. To not rehash the environmental discussions contained in the General Plan EIR, but rather to focus on new impacts and the imposition of mitigation measures from that EIR in reviewing the environmental effects of projects .rhich are consistent with the General Plan; 4 To strive to obtain initial studies which contain a definitive list of environmental effects and are internally consistent so that a "focusing of Environmental concerns" is the result and the document becomes pertinent to land use decision-mak;lg: If the Board concurs with the above policies,, then I would ask that it direct the staff to modify this projects initial study to conform with Those policies and return it to the Board for its review and consideration of a negative declaration or an appropriately focused EIR.' Should this Board need more time to reflect on this discussion, or perhaps to allow staff to formulate its,comments,."the applicant offers his support for a continuance: I Would, hpwever, direct the Boards attention to Appendix, 1l, the 'time Mate that this project has experienced to date. The date of any continuance should be selected Wtt;i the knowledge that much time has already elapsed. k 1, • APPENDIX I Proiect Description of family subdivision developed O acresr+)a ofdthe �lards is asingle 2and 3( B 'This-pra3ectis located on Lots one unit/four acres.

Response - The only issue raised by the Department of Fish ani --Game which differs from the.DEIR is the significance of the ions of 1.4,000 acres of grasslands -:on the north and east of the coinmunity While the DEIR identifies the loss of these ,grasslands as an impact, it -does not conclude that the loss is significant., The DIR identifies the -'potential loss of vernal pools (pockets ,of unique plants which occtir, only in small depressions in grassland ate as•'when�winterYrains have been adequate sometimes= .cal.led hogwal'lows) , z iparian vegetation and secondary impacts to aquatic habitats as significant impacts. The loss of grasslands was not con- sidered significant because it is relatively abundant in the county and north Sacramento valley area and it is generally less productive (supports fewer wildlife, less diversity than other kabitats). 4 The Planning Department contacted the 'Environmental Services Section of the Department of Fish and Game pointing out that the Plan includes the oastern.and,northern areas to achieve continuity and compatibility -with the City of Chico's General Plan and County's Airport Environs Plan already accomplishedb Those factors have caused,.the•Department of Fish and Game to reconsider that portion of their,,comments which relate to grasslands.

Map (TSM),+ a proposal to divide 81 acres into 16 five -acre lots. Located north of Chico, the property is with:; the designated winter range of the East Tehama deer herd. Subdivision of land into small parcels has an adverse impact on migratory deer, as landswithin designated winter range are divided into parcels smaller than 20 acres, deer use becomes impaired, migratory movement affected, and forage and space needs drop below the level necessary to sustain the herd. Subdivisions have adversely affected a large portion of the East Tehama deer 'herd winter range in Butte County. In an effort to resolve the subdivision/deer conflict in Butte County, the DFG has recommended a series of actions for the 'Board of Supervisors (Board) to implement. The DPG also identified a "Designated. Development Zone" (DDZ) where deval.opment may occur, provided 'g on measures Are adopted and implemented by the project Boardyn Thep roect site 0,.s within a DMZ (a designated Transportation Corridor) where development may occur* provided residential dwellings are clustered along the corridor, e,g., residential dwellings be restricted to an area within 500 feet of the corridor. The TSM does not conform to the actions that we recommended to the Board. A revision of the TSM to meet those actions dould result in an acceptable liraect. However, until the Board has an Opportunity to adopt thoae actlonsj the OFG' recommends that the TSM be denied.

California_Det)-arfinent of Fish and Came: See attached letter. ANALYSISi This is a Use Permit request to allow the installation of a 1.5 acre evaporation pond for sewage disposal purposes, The project is located on the east. side of Cohasset Road, approximately 25 mIle north of Richardson Springs Road. The pond will be used to serve 5 proposed reitdential. lots, each 5 acres in size. The applicant is also as king that the pond be allowed to eaps,nd to, a maximum area of 4.5 ares to allow the fututo development. of. 11 ;additional 5 acre parcels, This request is being made because adequate soil for leachiteld selvage disposal systems does not exist on site to support single family dwellings on 5 acre parcels: The project is in an area: that was rezoned from FR -40 to FR -51n August of 1988, The Board of Supervisors approved`the FR- 5 zone, on appeal, after the Planning Commioion recommended denial for the applicants original request for a rezone to FR -3. One of the Platuliing Commissions main concerns with the reionp was adequate sewage disposal capacity. With the need for an alternative type of selvage disposal system to make the proposed subdivision feasible, it is evident that the Commissions concerns were valid. The proposed L5 acre pond will have a total depth of''7 feet, which includes a2). foot dike around the perimeter, ne complete sewage disposal system will include individual septic tanka on each parcel, connected to a pretisur'ized collection system that will pump liquid effluent to a community waste treatment site located within the proposed pond area. The effluen`.will be treatetl through ,the use of a sand filter design that is similar to the treatment system being proposed for a PUD a evelopment in North Chico. The use of this type of treatment system, not in conjunt:tion with a PUD development, raises some new concerns over the ownership, operation, .mainteriance, and liability associated with the ponds, A government entity, such as a. County Service Ara4L,, should be formed to provide these functions. This would be similar to CSA.,. 21 which provides sewer ponds for the Skansen and Rocky 'Bluff Subdivisions along the north side 2, 4 of the, Skyway, just east of i>n,co. Operation of CSA 21 is administered by the Public Works Department. The department is, however, reluctant to accept any additional, GSA's to administer. '11i s leaver a question as t6 which (ounty, State or other govarnment agency is willing to accept the responsibility. The other important aspect of this project will be itsprecedent setting effect that will ope the dgor for other projects' to use thief type of sewage treatment method outside of a PUD Application. If Butte Courity wants to recognize and promote this alternative to septic tank and loachfield. ;systems, it should be done through tine adoption of standards and regulations on a countywide basis with it a appropriate public hearings. This would include an amendment to Chapter :19 of the Butte County Code. The Corn -mission should not, at this time, consider approving the futureexpansion of the project to enlarge the pond to 1 acres because 'the remaining 535 acres are supposed to be left as Open :Space to mitigate impacts to the Deer Winter Range.

Judy 'Kramer ,�ijtrte County Planning Department county Center Drive 0rdv.ille, ` CA 9596 Dear Ms. gamer; The Department of ;Fish and Game (DFG) has reviewed the David Manthei Use Permit (UP), a proposal. to expand a 1.5 acre evaporation pond to 4.5 acres on AP 47-230-59. Located north of hico, the UP lies within winter range of the East Tehama deer herd, Whtei DFG reviewed the Tentative subdivision Map (TSM) on which. the UP is located, we found that it did not conform to DFG's mitigation measures recommended to the Board of Supervisors to offset residential encroachment :impacts on deer winter range. specifically, four of five parcels to be created were not bounded by the Cohasset Highway Identified Transpor..tation Corridor: Hdwever, DVG did 'not oppose the TSM provided the remaining acreage were desig-.aced permanent open space in a deed restriction to mitigate i�p=:,,ts on deer winter range. The revised Up is an intrusion in..o what should remain as an open space area for deer winter <arge: Wherefore, DFG recommends that,^the. UP be denied.

We have observed in the past that ponds without a sufficient side (bank.) slops can become a mosquito breeding problem. mosquitoes normally breed along the edges of the pond where weed growth is thick. As a condition of approval we request that the developer, while expanding the panel, construct a minimum of a 3:1 slope side bank. Periodic maintenance through a Homeowners Association is also necessary to insure that any tweed growth that emerges will be periodically removed, thereby eliminating the habitat that mosquitoes need to breed in These comments are consistent With the District's adopted policy called, 11Guidelines,'Checklist Arid Standards for. Vector Prevention in Proposed Developments''. If there are any questions regardingthese comments plea:,e Give our office a call: nce�/. ely/ , James L: Shaffe tegional supervisor its dm, _ BUTTE Co.

While that initial study adu,-essed many of the impacts associated with development at five (5) acre densities, it did not disavis specific impacts- relating to the design of a particular subdivision: The following. discussion relates to the checklist items as relating to the specific subdivision proposal. 5d. {Che Calif'onua Department of Fish & Game recommends that the project be denied unless. redesigned to conform to their standards for developmental along a designated transportation corridor. See the attached comments from the Department of Fish & Game dated 'November 1, 1989. E located within 100 ft: on the nearest lane of Cohasset Rd. will be subject to noise levels, n excess 70 0 Un which :is in excess of recommended levels for residential uses. It is recommended +hat all homesites be located at least; 200 ft. from Cohasset Rd. 8. The proposed design of the subdivision, has parcels 1,2, and 3 being split by'tt-- gess road.. 'This sort of lot design is normally not acceptable and that it leads to desires by subsequent owners to divest the►xtsplves ofunusedland oi'thQ other side of the road from their homes. Since the Department of Dish & Game has recommended a redesign and noise constraints and height limit constraints may do the same it is recommended that this project be redesigned so that no lot crosses the access road and iha+ the Department of fish && Game and noise standards of the Butte County General Plan Noise Element are adhered to. 13a,c,f. The access road is a proposed on the Tentative Map .must meet the requirements of the q g p alignment. Standard road approaches will be required, u red, 13 cause of theyhI hFsu Public nature of traffic on Cohasset Hwy,, it is recommended that left turn pockets be instslied in order to provide adequate room for traffic to pass while cars are slowing for left turns from Cohasset R Road to the subject propertyi acid to allow additional room for traffic leaving the property ;w, turning left onto Cohasset 1INvy, i { 13e. Due to the topography on site, the property is close to both the horizontal surface and the conical surface on the Chico Municipal Airport. Vertical clearances on lots and 3 are limited in places. Height .limits for structures maybe as low a, ten (10) feet without FAA approval. It is recommended that the topography of the property be surveyed in relationship to the horizontal and chronical surfaces and appropriate height limits designated on the final map. A note on the t' final map may indicate that the height limits may exceeded only with FAA (Federal Aviation a Administration) approval. i Recommended Villigation Measures G 1. Redesign the project to meet therequirements of the Department of Fish & Game so that all homesites are located. within 500 ft, of Cohassei Hwy, 2. Grant a permanent. open space easement over those areas not located. within 500 ft. of j Cohasset Hwy, pursuant to the .requirements of the Department of Fish and Game. : 13 Redesign the project so that no parcel is split by any road. 4. All homesites to be located at least '2'00 ft, from Cohasset Hwy. or appropriate noise atinuation devices be employed to reduce interior' noise levels to 45 dB,}` 5.

K thy .Kelly, Planning Technician Butte County Planning Commission 7 County Center Drive Oroville, CA 95965 near Ms Kelly; 4 The Department of Fish and Came has reviewed Dave Manthei."s request to rezone a 40.59 acre parcel and a 40.53 acre parcel from "U" (unclassified) into "FR2- 11 (roothill Recreation, three ,acre parcels)., Mr. Panthers property (APs K47-23-59,60) is located between.Cohasset Road and Panorama 'Drive, approximately three milgs northeast of the Chico Municipal Airport. Although both parcels are near thewesternedge of migratory deer range, the property is within the designated fainter range of the East Tehama deer her ; The property is not within a specifically identified area where development. may ,occur (i.e., bordering an identified "transportation corridor" or an area already j impacted by small parcel sizes).. Development of lands on designated winter range into parcels less than 20 acres minimum will adversely affect migratory -seer use. The cumulative impact of the proposed rezoning request W411 result in a significant adverse impact upon deer use of their des vated. winter range., Eventually, the loss of their designated ranges will adversely affect the welfare of the deer herd, The Department has recommended that the Butte, County Board of Supervisors adopt: a series of mitigation measures for migratory deer. Umiting division of the land to a 20 acre minimum parcel sie, compliance with the perimeter fencing ordinance, and controlling free roaming cogs through a clog ordinance would be appropriate for the subject property; However, until the Board has the e)pportunity to react to our recommendations and adopt mitigati:oon rreasurfs:s, we recommend the request be donied. �. ,. a. +� i... `\ Y M �' 4 , ::, ,�. ` 1 ))II1/I r �t� ,I " Hutto Co.

Located north of Chino, the TSbi lies within designated winter range of the East Tehama deer herd.. µ in are effort to reduce residential encroachment 'impacts on deer winter ,.range, DFG has recommended to the Butte County Board of. Supervisors (Board) a series of mitigation measures for residential development projects. Designated 'Development Zones (DDZ,) were 3.dentified where residential development-may occur if mitigation measures are imposed by the Board. Identified de of DDZ areas were designated where mitigated residential development could occur if Transportation Corridors (ITC) outs. the parcels created were bounded by the ITC and all construction was limited to within 500 feet of the ITC. The Manthei TSM does notconform to the above criteria because only mie parcel to be created borders the Cohasset`Highway ITC:.. n However, DEG does not object to this deviation if the remaining 6+ acres of A.P. 47--23--59 and A.P: 47-23-60 are subject to,a Permanent open spare easement as stipulated in item. 10 of the November. 10, 1987, Inter-Departmental Memorandum from the Butte County Planning Department to the Board of Superv:"isors ffowever until the .Board adopts and implements a mitigation plan_ for impacts of residential encroachment on deer winter 'range, we recommend that the Ix PM be denied: !, if we: can be of further assistance, please contact Mr. Ron Bertram, Associate Wildlife Biologist, or Ms. Patricia Porkint, Wildlife Management.

Environmental Impact Report DATE; November 101 1997 Motiotl subject to ,County Counsel's agreement with provision for ,, cor4ition zoning and'a Devplopment Agreement. A All potentially significant environmental impact:; identified for the project have been adequately discussed in the Chico Area Land Use 'Plan EIR, SC9 #80002514, and various other elements of the Butte County General Plan; B. That although thep"'toposed project could have a significant: effect on the environment, there willnot be a significant: effect 'in this case because the mitigation measures' described below will be added to the project. A Negative Daclaration will be prepared; C. And that imposition of the mitigation measures shall be accomplished utilizing the provisions of the County° zoning ordinance for conditional zoning. D. Also that a Development Agreement should be applied for that contains idemni.fication provisions and incorporates by reflt'�tance the conditional zoning agreement.: Mitigation Measures': The following mitigation measures, if incorporated into the project design oi., attae:•,ed as conditions to prOjeuL appro%,a , will reduce the potentially significant impacts: 1. Ploodink/Drainage;4 provide .for on-site detention of storm water for later release when peak flows have subsided in exis,, ng drainage channels (Page 04, Chico Atea Land Use Plan EIR) 2. Sail/ rosion/glope Stability! Revegetate all soil surfaces exposed during construction (Page 71i Chico Area Land Use Plant Page til, Item G.5 Land Use Flemdrit);, 5. Water: Water supply to be. verified at time of subdivision approval. Data from area wells to be consulted, as appropriate. (Chico Area Land Use Plan EIR, Page 714). F 4 ' k x 4_. Wildlife Habitat: �'' The loss of wildlife habitat in the north and east is a 'trade-off ,for saving riparian habitats on the west - a 4 goal found by the Department of Fish and Game to be "envirarimentally superior" (Pab#.lWs,, Appendices T and U, Chico Area Land,Use Plan EIR). 5, Noise: Noise levo-14,for the Cohasset Road corridor in the ;project vicinity should be determined, and, based upon the County noise. element and the criteria in the General Plan EIR, appropriate residential s--tbacks established.. (Chico Area Land Use Plan EIA, 'B Page 133). 6. Land Use: The project request will require the imposition of conditions in order to meet the conditional criteria in the Land` Ik' Use Element. In accordaricd with Section 15064 of the. State CEQA Guidelines, air and water discharges will be presumed not to be significant if they meet. current standards.. Project, conditions can impose meeting these standards at time* of subdivision approval. Fire protection standards recently adopted will mitigate the fire danger. i« Traffic: Cohasset Road Will not experience any significant decline in level of r,eRrvice resulting from construction of homesi.tes in. the :project: area (Circulation Element, Page 54); traffic safety iderdt berestrictions,l into proj6ct includingcons design, appropriates accessst intersection' improvements, safe sight: distance siting, left turn, daceleration and. acceleration Innes. The determination of the correct combination of these fettu=es shall be accomplished at the time the tentative subdivision map is submitted for review. 8. Public Services: ire: Pay Crater: tender fees pursuant to $utte , County mire Department Regulations. Schools: CUSD mirrently, collects builder's fees to be utilized for the District's capital` ' facilities needs. No other significant impact to public services are anticipated; hence, there are nr,°t mitigations for police, water, supply, sewage disposal, solid waste, electrical] 'nat'ural gas, and telephone services. 9.
