DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATIM AP 56-08-41 lb,c,e,fy81b,c,f-' Development of two homesites on the subject property result in some disruption, displacement$ compaction and overcovering of the soil and related changes in topography due to grading activities that could lead to an Increase in storms,,iqter runoff or a change in drainage patterns resulting in erosion and possible siltation of the surface Waters In the area. Particularly vulnerable Is the middle branch of Mud Crook located to the east of the subject property. It it recommended that homesites be located in areas of lessor slopesq preferably to the north and west of Musty Buck Road as shown on the Tentative Parcel Map. 11 -it All of Butte County Is located within a Moderate rz8rthquake Intensity Zone VIII. The subject property Is located approximately 4 to 6 miles northeast of the Tuscan Moriocliney a fault system of unknown activity. A historical earthquake epicenter occurred In the general area with a magnitude of 0.1 to 3.9 on the Richter, Scale. Construct-lon of any buildings to Uniform Building Code standards for selsmIcally active areas should provide adequate protection to residents In case of seismic activity. 5d: The subject property Is located in a noncritical winter deer herd area, The Department of Fish and Game has recommended that no new parcels of les'; thzn 20 acres be created in such areas. The subject property Is Ir. t, ad in an area of 110 -acre parcels, and two 5 -acre parcels exist diately to the north of this property. Due to the sue -rounding par"al sizetf this project should not create a significant Impact If homesIbes are located close to existing roads and dwellings In the area. alli: The Butte County General Plan designatet the subject property as Agricultural-Resldeotial. Five conditional criteria must be present In order to find parcels of loss than 20 acres In conformity with the General Plan. Of the five conditional criteria, four are significant In discussion of this projecti Water supplies In the Cohaszeb area are known to be limited In some cases. If evidence of adequate Water supply can bo provlded� then conformity with this condiblonall criterion exists. Three other condltlbhtkl criteria relate directly to the location of the Property In respect to the roads In the area and thelt- toodibloh. The Tentative Parcel Map shows access to Parcel I to be from Villas Road. Vilas Road Is a County-maintalned road but Is not cbMstrutt-ed to County standards. 10 periods of Inclement weather V118s Road deteriorates badly and tould become impassable.. Proposed Parcel 2 shows no access other thin Musty Buck Road, which Is not a Coulnty-malhtalnOd road. Like Vilos Road, Musty Buck Road also deter lot -aces badly during periods of Inclement weather. Department of OublIc Works conditions will require 60 -foot -wide deeded access to publicly malritalned road for, both parcels. The roads must be built to Subdivision Ordinance standards. Due to the condition of the roads in the area and the distance from public'services, fire protettloin and access to commercial services and sLriools is Ilmitod.
