3. PCM-95-07 Zoning Interpretation for Wastewater Treatment and Recvcling Facilitv -
Resource Recoverv Techniaues. Inc. (Continued)
A. BACKGROUND
Resource Recovery Techniques, Inc. (RRT) is requesting that the Planning Commission
determine that a wastewater treatment and recycling facility is either a permitted or
conditional use in the 1- L Limited Industrial zone.
Wastewater treatment facilities are not presently listed in the Zoning Ordinance, but the
Planning Commission is authorized to categorize a use not specifically listed provided
the use is determined by the Commission to be of the same general character as those
similarly categorized.
This item was continued from the meeting of October 26, 1994, to allow the applicant
additional time to meet with staff to clarify processing and timing issues. They have
decided to pursue the request as originally submitted to the Commission.
The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that the zoning interpretation is
exempt from environmental review as a minor alteration to land use limitations, Class
5 Exemption under the provisions of the CEQA Guidelines.
B. RECOMMENDATION
Adopt attached Resolution PCM-95-07 denying the request as submitted and finding that
a wastewater treatment facility is of the same general character as the conditional uses
provided for in the I General Industrial zone.
C. DISCUSSION
The RRT wastewater treatment and recycling operation would involve the chemical and
biological treatment of non-hazardous wastewater on a 3.8 acre site at the northwest
corner of Bay Boulevard and Palomar Street in the I-L Limited Industrial zone. The
facility would include an administration building, a treatment building, treatment tanks,
and a chemical storage building.
The facility would have the capacity to process 42 million gallons of wastewater per
year, 65% of which is septic/portable toilet waste, and 35% of which is grease trap and
bilge water waste. The material would arrive via 40-50 I,OOO-5,000-gallon tanker trucks

per day. All off-loading of waste is conducted inside an enclosed building. (Please see
attached project description and conceptual development plans.)
Please see attached for excerpts from the Code listing the permitted, conditional and
prohibited uses in the I-L Limited Industrial and I General Industrial zones. Following
are the descriptions of these two categories of industrial use from the General Plan and
the Zoning Code:
General Plan
Research and Limited Industrial
This category includes research and development, light manufacturing,
warehousing, and flexible-use buildings, which combine the above uses with
office space.
General Industrial
This category includes all uses identified for Research and Limited Industrial plus
light manufacturing operations, large-scale warehousing, transportation centers,
and public utilities.
Zoning Code
I-L Limited Industrial
The purpose of the I-L zone is to encourage sound limited industrial development
by providing and protecting an environment free from nuisances created by some
industrial uses and to insure the purity of the total environment of Chula Vista
and San Diego County and to protect nearby residential, commercial and
industrial uses from any hazards or nuisances.
I General Industrial
The purpose of the I zone is to encourage sound industrial development by
providing and protecting an environment exclusively for such development,
subject to regulations necessary to insure the purity of the airs and waters in
Chula Vista and San Diego County, and the protection of nearby residential,
commercial and industrial uses of the land from hazards and noise or other
disturbances.

Agenda Item for Meeting of November 9, 1994

Please also see the City's Land Use Chart, attached hereto. The Chart represents those
uses which have been found by the Planning Commission to be of the same general
character as the uses which are similarly categorized and specifically listed in the Code.
In their request, RRT cites several uses which are either permitted or conditional uses
in the I-L zone, and which are, in their opinion, comparable in scope or "much more
intense and potentially environmentally damaging" than a wastewater treatment facility
(please see attached application and supporting correspondence from RRT). These are:
Permitted Uses:
Asphalt paving yards
Automobile dead storage yard
Battery reconditioning and manufacturing
Dry cleaning plant (except large scale)*
Laboratories *
Major electrical appliance repair
Manufacturing of containers comprised of metal, wood or paper
Processing of previously prepared materials*
Storage yards*
Conditional Uses:
Distribution centers*
Freight trucking terminals*
Hazardous waste facilities**
Plastic and other synthetics manufacturing*
Recycling collection centers***
Well drilling and tank cleaning operations
* The uses marked with an asterisk are listed in the Code. The balance are from
the Land Use Chart.
** The provisions on Hazardous Waste Facilities were recently added to the Code
as a result of State legislation (the Tanner Act), which mandates that applications
for hazardous waste treatment facilities must be accepted and reviewed (but not
necessarily approved) within all industrial zones. Such facilities are subject to the
extensive requirements of CVMC 19.158.128, attached hereto, which include the
general areas and siting criteria, and fair share principles, established in Section
5.5 of the Public Facilities Element of the General Plan, also attached hereto.
City Planning Commission
Agenda Item for Meeting of November 9, 1994
Page 4
The attached materials on Hazardous Waste Facilities are not applicable to RRT's
proposal and need not be reviewed in detail or at all. They have been included
simply to illustrate that the consideration of such facilities as conditional uses in
the 1- L zone was mandated as a result of State legislation, and they are subject
to special and exacting standards and a rigorous review process.
***
The provisions on Recycling Collection Centers were added to the Code in
response to the State "Bottle Bill," which mandates that collection facilities be
located within" convenience zones" (in close proximity to grocery stores). Larger
recycling operations are presently allowed only by conditional use permit in the
I General Industrial zone.
D. ANALYSIS
Several of the uses cited by RRT have aspects which could be considered comparable or
perhaps more potentially impactive than a wastewater treatment facility. However, we
believe it is appropriate to categorize a use in relation to the purpose and intended
character for the zoning district, and also the general character of the totality of uses
similarly categorized in the Code.
Determinative to staff is the distinction between the limited or light industrial character
intended for the I-L zone, versus the heavier or general industrial character envisioned
for the I zone. A facility which involves a general or heavier industrial appearance and
activity levels, which in this case includes several large storage tanks and 40-50
wastewater tanker trucks servicing the facility on a daily basis, would appear to staff to
fit more clearly within the scope of a General Industrial rather than Limited Industrial
zone.
Also, more specifically, with the exception of the State-mandated Recycling Collection
and Hazardous Waste uses, the processing uses which are permitted or conditional uses
in the I-L zone involve processing of products from previouslv prepared materials (see
19.44.020A). On the other hand, the prohibited uses in the I-L zone involve processing
of products from raw materials, and include reprocessing activities such as rendering and
salvage operations (see 19.44.050A). We believe a wastewater treatment facility is more
similar in general character to these prohibited uses than the permitted and conditional
uses cited by RRT.
RRT further states that a wastewater treatment facility is similar in character and less
onerous than several of the uses listed as Unclassified in Section 19.54 of the Code.
Such uses are eligible for location in any zone upon the approval of a conditional use
permit by the Planning Commission and City Council (please see attached CVMC 19.54).
City Planning Commission
Agenda Item for Meeting of November 9, 1994
Page 5
Unclassified Uses are those that are declared to possess characteristics of such unique and
special form as to make it impractical to automatically include them in any particular
zone. Although a case could perhaps be made for including a wastewater treatment
facility within this unique category of uses, there is no similar provision in this section,
as there is in the individual zone districts, for the Planning Commission to make such a
determination based upon similarity of general character. It would require an amendment
to the Code to specifically include such facilities in that section.
For these reasons, and based on the fact that general salvage operations are treated as a
conditional use in the I-General Industrial zone, we are recommending that the request
be denied and that the Commission determine that a wastewater treatment facility is of
the same general character as the conditional uses provided for in the I General Industrial
zone.
If the Commission concurs with this recommendation, it would be necessary for RRT to
apply for a General Plan amendment, Local Coastal Plan amendment, rezoning and
conditional use permit in order to locate a wastewater treatment facility at the northwest
comer of Bay Boulevard and Palomar Street. As an alternative, although not
recommended by staff, RRT could apply for an amendment to the Municipal Code to
include wastewater treatment facilities in the Unclassified Uses section of the Code. The
conditional use permit required for Unclassified Uses could be processed concurrently
with this request.

Re: Resource Recovery ~echniques
Dear John:
We represent Resource Recovery ~echniques, Inc. which is
proposing an environmentally sound, non-hazardous wa.tewater
treatment and recycling facility at Western Salt Company'. 3.7-acre
parcel at the northwest ,cotner of Palomar and Bay Blvd. Attached
are letters from our client to Mr. Lyle Haynes and Mr. Sid Morri.
dated August 17, 1994 and september 15, 1994, r..pectively, which
summarize the .cope of the project.
We have had a .eries of meetings with staff and appear to be
at an impasse as to how to proceed with the discretionary permits
and approval..
Mr. Haynes recently is.ued a letter to our client dated
Sept.mber 6, 1994 which outlin.d some of the pr.liminary staff
conclusions as to how t.his project should be proc....d. 1It'r'1ett.r
indicates ,that a General Plan Amendment, a aezone, an LCP
'Amendment, and a coastal Development Permit are all required for
the proj.ct. W. do not agr.. with this conclu.ion,

use" in the limited Industrial Zone (IL) or, through a Conditional
Use permit as authorized by Chapter 19.14 of the Municipal Code.
We believe that this type of project is within the scope of
the permitted uses as outlined in Section 19.44.020. Further, we
-
have reviewed the Land Use Chart that the City Planning Department
distributes and find that a variety of auch aore intense and
potentially environmentally damaging projects are permitted "by
right" in the IL Zone. 'l'hese "permitted by right" uses include
asphal t _ paving ,yards, automobile dead storage yards, battery
reconditioning and manufacturing, aanufacturing of containers
comprised of metal, wood or paper, large scale dry cleaning
industrial plants, major electrical appliance repairs, and storage
yards, just to name a few.
In addition, there are a variety of uses which are allowed by
Conditional Use Permit in the ~L Zone, including, but not limited
to, distribution centers, !fe1ght trucking terminals, hazardous
waste facilities, plastic and other synthetic aanufacturing plants,
recycling collection centers, and well drilling and tank clearing
operations. Finally, unclassified uses identified in Municipal
Code Chapter 19.54 are permitted by conditional Use Permits in any
zone within the City. Many of these unclassified uses are of a
auch aore intense nature than our client's non-hazardous wast_ater
treatment and recycling facility.
--
The property is zoned for industrial use and our client'.
proposed use is consistent with that designation.
It is our understanding that the City Council ha~ recently
given policy direction to the Planning Department which uy be
contrary to how this particular project is being initially
evaluated by staff. We believe that the Municipal Code is clear
Mr. John GOss, City Manager
september 26, 1994
Page 3
that this project should either be permitted by right in the IL
Zone, or in the alternative, that a conditional Use permit could be
processed for this type of project.
We believe that to require that this project process a General
Plan Amendment, a Rezone, .an LCP Amendment, and a coastal
Development Permit would be a tremendous waste of resources, time
and expense and be in direct conflict with the City's lead role in
establishing the Border Environmental Commerce Alliance Program
(BECA). We would urge you to review and determine that this
project can be processed as suggested in this letter.
We would welcome a meeting with you to further discusS this
item at your earliest convenience.
Thank you for your courtesy.

Re: Previous Meeting
Dear Mr. Haynes:
I have already forwarded detailed drawings of our facility which we are building In
phoenix, AZ. It Is an environmentally engineered facility which has spill prevention. .
control and containment for all liquid waste processed at our facility. We have also
forwarded preliminary drawings to Indicate how our facility can layout on our site In Chula
Vista.
I will now try to address your questiofis"forwardedto me by Mr. Curtis Valenzuela.
1. The process used at our facility Is basic wastewater technology, Including physical.
chemical and biological treatment of non-hazardous liquid waste (NHLW). We are
. planning to handle a majority of the NHLW currently disposed of at Pump Station
#1 In San Diego.
The volumes CUlT8l"!tly accepted by the City of San Diego are NMlng abOut
34.000.000 gallons a year (see attached report from the City of San Diego. 1993
Trucked Waste Discharges). It Indicates about 1;800.000 gallonS'1l"ft\Onth of
septic and portable toilet and 1.050.000 gallons of industrial waste which Is
composed of the water portion from grease traps and nonhaZ8rc:1ouS bilge water.
: .;.
2.
. .
3. Material brought on site will be treated and disposed of In the following manner.
, Over 90% of the material will be treated effluent and discharged to the metro-
sewer system. An Industrial discharge permit will be obtained ard . Resource
Recovery Techniques, Inc. (RRT) wilt-meet the limits and .testirig required.
Separated solids will pass the paint filter test and be landfilled ~ used In a
composting program. Vegetable grease and oil will be recovered and recycled.
The solids, grease and 011 represent less than 10% of the NHLW and will be

transported off-site.
The site we are proposing 15 approximately 500 feet off the Palomar exit of 1-5 and
minimizes any Impact to Chula Vista roads. The NHLW will be brought via
enclosed tanker trucks which vary In size from 1.000 to 5,000 gallon capacity.
Currently a majority of NHLW arrives via 5.000 gallon tanker trucks. Our facility
would be open from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday thru Friday and 8:00 am to 12:00
am Saturday. Based on receiving 3,000,000 gallons of NHLW a month the facility
would receive less than 4 trucks per hour at an average capacity of 3,000 gallons.
.'
. It
A preliminary site plan was forwarded on August 16, 1994. We would build two
buildings utilizing concrete tilt wall construction. The off-loading, physical and
chemical treatment Is pelformed Inside the treatment building. The treatment
tanks outside .are less than 20 feet tall and would be screened by our treatment
building fronting .Bay Blvd.
, hope this information answers your questions, please let me know If you have any other
questions.

RE: Our 9113194 'Meeting
.'
Dear Mr. Morris:
.' ,
We appreciate your time and thoughtful questions. We would like to summarize the
economic and environmental benefits we can provide to the region. .
Resource Recovery Techniques (RRT) was founded on the principle of providing
sound environmental treatment solutions for nonhazardous wastewaters. RRT Intends
to build a network of treatment facilities designed to offer a full-c:ircle solution to meet
this challenge.
While benefitting the San Diego and Chula Vista area environmentally. we 'also offer
these economic benefits: . ,.
.;;,.- :
, ~
1) 20-30 full-time positions;
2) tax on property and Improvements (approximately 14M In Improvements);
3) sales or use taxes, If applicable, on $4.3M In sales annually; and,
<4) reduction In costs associated with dogged sewer lines (due to grease).
These can be measured directly; however. RRTs real value may be significantly
higher If the Indirect economic benefits are considered. There lire literelly. hundreds of
businesse& that could benefit from a nonhazardous liquid waste (NHLW) facility like
RR1's. Currently restaurants, car washes and numerous other n.onhazardotinlquld
waste generators are paying premium costs to ship these wastewaters to Los Angeles
and Stockton. CA. Our facility may assist Chula Vista and the entire region In finding
several major companies considering the regIon because of Ita ability to provide sound
environmental treatment at affordable priceS. Some major Industries with these
wastewaters are food. beverage. cosmetic, chemical and shipping.
RRT will provide hundreds of thOUsands of dollars directly to Chuta Vista but indirectly
RRT will be helpful in attracting Industries with over ten times the direct economic.
benefits. The environmental benefits our facility offers are likewise significant RRT
pretreatment facilities are designed to treat a variety of nonhazardous wastewatersRfCf.!"tO

Treatment Is available for septic, grease, sand traps, as a well as nonhazardous ship
and Industrial wastewaters. 'RRT facilities use physical, chemical and
advanced biological processes to pretreat water prior to discharge In the sanitary
sewer.
Currently the majority of the region's wastewaters are disposed of directly to the City
of San Diego without any pretreatment. Grease from restaurants and grit from car
washes are not accepted at the city's receiving station on Harbor Drive, Legel
altematives for grease and grit wastewater are in Los Angeles and Stockton. CA,
respectively. Unpermitted facilities have been located in the region. These
unpermitted facilities offer a low price and reduced trucking times and are currently
handling significant volumes. RRT Intends to provide the long-term solution of all
NHLW Including grease and grit. We also provide a safe and effective treatment for
most ship wastewaters. We have been talking to the Navy and they are very
Interested In our capabilities. RRT's pretreatment capabilities are needed and will
benefit a wide ~nge of Industries, as well as, the environment.
..
It Is our understanding that Chuta Vista.has taken the lead In establishing the Border
Environmental Commerce Alliance (~CA) program, BETRC, and BESC. The
purpose of these programs Is to promote and assist the environmental Industry and
create opportunities for growth and employment. We feel that Resource Recovery
Techniques offers aU of this for Chula Vista. RRT Is not seeking to avoId any required
permits. We are seeking the benefits that BeCA provides In streamlinIng the
. permitting processes. We loOk forward to working with the City of Chula Vista now
and In the future.

Household Hazardous Waste
~
Pursuant to the requirements of AB 939. the City has prepared for adoption
a Household Hazardous Waste Element (HHWE) as a component of
county-wide integrated waste management plans. Consistent with Clapter V
of the COHWMP. the HHWE addresses the safe collection, recycling,
treatment and disposal of household hazardous waste within the aty over
both the short tenn (1991-19')5) and mid-tenn (1996-2000).
(1) The aty shall work with the County to encourage, through
community education. a reduction in household hazardous waste
seneIation by promoting safe substituteS and recycling.
(2) The aty shall encourage the safe disposal of household hazardous
wastes by working wilh the County in providing convenient disposal
alternatives to the residents of Clula Vista, including support and
sponsorship of community collection events. and establishment of
specialized criteria for evaluating the siting of 1eIDPOrary and
pennanent collection centers,
General Areas
The Tanner Act (AB 2948) requires the mapping of "general areas" within
which hazardous waste facilities might be established, subject to evaluation
based on the siting criteria set forth in the subsequent section. "General
areas" are intended to illustrate the extent and distribution of potential siting
opportunities within Clula Vista and as such. are designed along wilh the
siting criteria as first step in analyzing the appropriateness of a particular site
for a hazardous waste facility. 'I11e "general areas" ARE NOT recommended
locations for such facilities, nor are they intended as a specific SUide to
locations where facility siting applications are encouraged. However, facility
proposals should be considered only if they are within the general areas
designated herein.
Existing industrial areas, and future industrial areas designated in the Clula
Vista General Plan were included as "general areas" in OIaptcr IX and
Appendix IX-B of the COHWMP. 'J11ese areas do not necessarily represent
all the available locations for facilities. as additional land designated as
industrial through future General Plan amendments and rezonings should also
be considered for possible inclusion as a "general area". Likewise, application
of siting criteria to more specific local conditions may prove lOII1e of the
identified generalized areas as unacceptable.
Based on a review of more specific local land use conditions in relation to
several prominent siting criteria. Fisure 3-10 depicts a refinement of "general
areas" within which hazardous waste facility proposals would be considered
in the Clula Vista P\antling Area. These refined "general areas" shall prevail
over the "general areas" described in the COHWMP and its appendices, and

shall be subject to review and amendment from time-tO-time IS necessitated
by dwlging land use and other local conditions. For clarification, the
following prescribes those industrially designated and zoned areas which have
presenlly been removed from the COHWMP's "general areas" inventory:
MontsromervlOtav Communitv: BoWlded by L Street on the nonh,
Interstate S on the west, OIay River on the lOUth, and Interstate 805
on the east. Much of the community's industrial areas are juxtaposed
with residential uses and immobile populations such IS schools,
resulting from an historic lack of zoning regulation and enforcemem
under County jurisdiction prior to the area's II\IIexation in 1985.
Potential location of a hazardous waste facility in this land use setting
would present substantial and unacceptable risks to public health and
safety. In addition, the largest aggregate industrial area located along
the Main Street corridor borders the envirolUDenta11y sensitive Otay
River Valley (recently inventoried in conjunction with preparation of
the OIay River Resource Enhancement Plan), and is entirely within
the dam failure inundation area for Lower OIay Reservoir's Savage
Dam according to maps on file with the State Department of Water
Resources.

EastLake and Rancho Del Rev Business Parks: These industrially
designated areas in Eastern Chula Vista are integrated components of
predominantly residential mixed-use master planned communities.
Reflective of this setting, they are intended as employment areas
comprised of light industrial uses such as warehousing and
distribution, and would be inappropriate for hazardous waste facilities.
Furthcnnore, principal access to these areas is by way of East H
Street and Telegraph Canyon Road which transect large residential
areas and serve as principal travel routes cmying in excess of 35,000
ADT, presenting substantial transponation risks.
Otav Valle v Road: The ponion of the Otay Valley Road industrial
area east of Interstate 805 and south of Otay Valley Road borders the
OIay River Valley, and is entirely within the dam failure inundation
area for Lower OIay Reservoir's Savage Dam.

-Area shall prevail over the seven General Area policies set fonh on pages
1X-46 and 1X-47 of the CX>HWMP:
(I) Proposals for hazardous waste facilities shall be accepted for review

military land. Siting on a case-by-case basis could be considered in
special circumstanceS. A relationship should be developed with the

Sitin& Criteria
Under the Tanner Act (AB 2948), local govenunent Is ~ired to adopt
"siting criteria" to be applied in evaluating hazardous waste facility proposals
within the previously established "general areas". Siting criteria are those
operational, financial, land use and transporution conditions which must be
met if a hazardous waste management facility is to be permitted at a specific
site. Siting criteria are both qualitative and quantitative in nature, and as the
focus of the siting process are primarily intended to ensure the sufficient
protection of public health, safety and welfare. and envirorunenta1 resources.
The criteria are designed somewhat generically in d1at they apply to
evaluation of a broad range of hazardous waste facilities and management
teclmologies which can vary greatly in their size. vollDDe, and type of waste
stream(s) handled, and which inherently may differ substantially in their
potential land use. envirorunental, and public health impacts. While this
generic nature of the criteria provides needed flexibility in the local review
process, it also necessitates that facility review be conducted carefully and
thoroughly. As a result, all local facility application reviews shall include an
envirorunental review and health risk assessment, and any approvals shall be
through a conditional use permit.
Recognizing the influence of more specific local conditions on the
development and application of siting criteria, Section 25135. 7(d) of the
California Health and Safety Code allows cities to establish more stringent
planning requirements or siting criteria than those in the COHWMP. In order
to assure that hazardous waste facilities are considered with the highest regard
for the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of OIula Vista, and the
continued preservation and protection of its natural resources, the following
modified siting criteria shall be employed in the evaluation of hazardous
waste facility proposals within the City's General Planning Area, and shall
prevail over the siting criteria contained in Appendix IX-A of the COHWMP:
PROTECT THE RESIDENTS OF CHULA VISTA
1. Proximity to populations
. Proximity to populations is defUled as the distance from the
boundary of the site upon which the facility Is proposed to
dwellings used by one or more persons as a permanent place
of residence. or to dwellings inhabited by persons temporarily

camps).
347
. Distance separation requimnents for residuals repositories
and other facilities shall Include all areas designated in
General Plan for future residential development regardless of
their density, as wen as existing residences.
. For a residuals repository. the proximity of the facility to
populations must be a minimum of 2.000 feet, subject to
Increase pursuant to the required risk assessments and
environmental review.
. The active portion of a facility shall be subject to additional
setbacks and buffering from the propeny boundary as
required by the IDIderlying zone. or through conditions
established by the associa1ed use pennit(s).
. All hazardous waste facility proposals shall be required to
undergo an environmental review and prepare a health risk. .
assessment regardless of their type. size, or proximity to
populations or immobile populations, Said health risk
assessment (HRA), as discussed on pages 1X-28 through -33
of the COHWMP, shall be prepared under the direction of the
City. the Local Assessment Committee (LAC), and any Ad
Hoc Technical Committees which may be created to advise
. the City and the LAC on such matters.
. With respect to hazardous waste treatment facilities, there is
110 stated distance from populations or immobile populations
which is assumed to be safe. The required HRA shall serve
as a fundamental mechanism to present data. evaluations and
recommendations for use by the City Council in detennining
whether a Conditional Use Pennit should be granted. taking
into consideration, among other matters. the Ippropriate
location and disWlce for the particular hazardous waste
facility in relation to any existing and proposed surrounding
residential development or other sensitive receptors.
. The City shall establish a screening process to detennine the
scope and content of each HRA, and the need for. and type
of, any additional technical studies. It is the intent of the
City in developing this scope, that the HRA recognize the
alternative sites presented through the environmental review
and provide comparative evaluation of these sites to enable
consideration of the relative public health. safety and welfare
risks, and environmental protection concerns in making siting
decisions.
. Existing hotels and motels shall also be considered
residences.
3-48
. Setback or buffer areas sha1l be pm:luded from future
residential uses Ihrough property restrictions such as
easements or c:ovenants. and where appropriate. through
general planning and zoning.
2. Proximity 10 immobile populations
. Proximity 10 immobile populations is defined as the distance
from the boundary of the site upon which the facility is
located 10 areas where persons who cannot or should not be
moved are located.
. The definition of immobile populations includes childcare
facilities and K-12 schools as well as hospitals. convalescent
homes and prisons.
. Hazardous waste facilities sha1l not be located within one
mile of any of these populations unless the required risk
assessment satisfactorily indicates that the auendant health
, and safety risks are not appreciably increased.
3. Capability of emergency services
. Capability of emergency services is defined 10 include the
extent of training and equipment of fire departments. police
depanments. and hospitals for handling industrial
emergencies. particularly those involving hazardous materials
and wastes,
. All facilities shall be located in areas where fire departments
are trained 10 deal with hazanlous materials accidents, where
mutual aid and immediate aid agreements are
well-established. and where demonstrated emergency response
times are the same or better than those recommended by the
National Fire Prevention Association.
. The City may require additional facility design features
and/or on-site emergency services at the facility based on the
type of wastes handled or the location of the facility.
.
Pursuant 10 the requirements of State law, and subject 10 the
satisfaction and approval of the City Council. facilities may
provide their own emergency mponse capability.

COlDlty corporation yards, waste disposal facilities, ICwage tn:abnent
facilities. state'school lands (lands deeded to the state when California
was admiued to the Union), and military bases and installations,
It is the policy of the DepaJ1ment of Defense that military Iarid shall
DOt be considered for public hazardous waste management facilities,
However. the military currently has hazardous waste trealment and
IIOrage facilities located on military bases in the San Diego region
and has in the past leased military land to public agencies for waste
management functions (Miramar Landfill). \
Therefore. military lands are potentially available for the siting of
new facilities for the handling of military hazardous waste (new
facilities for the handling of military hazardous waste (new facilities
are proposed in the V.S, Navy's 5-year budget Military land may be
considered for lease or sale for public hazardous waste facilities. at

proposals; which study shall 8CCOlDlt for all factors addressed in items
"25 to "29, and consider both existing and projected land use and
circulatory conditions pursuant to the General Plan.
25. Proximity to areas of waste generation
Proximity to areas of waste generation is deflDed as the travel time
from the major marxet areas of waste generation to the proposed
facility.
All facilities except residuals repositories by vinue of location. should
minimize travel time for all market areas of waste generation, on a
weighted basis. with no major market areas beyond a one-way travel
time of one day (including loading and unloading).
For the residuals repository. one-way transponation time. including
loading and unloading, from any major marlcet areas would not
exceed one day, with the majority of the driving time spent on major
routes (state and interstate divided highways).
Total transponation costs for incineration facilities should represent
a modest portion of the total cost of using IUCh facilities including
drop charges.

Distance from a major route is defined as the distance along a minor
route (city street, boulevard. or wldivided highway) that a truck must
travel 10 reach the facility after leaving the major route (state or
interstate divided highway).
Distance: traveled on minor roads should be kept 10 a minimum,
Facilities are best located near an exit of a major route.

27. Structures fronting minor routes
Structures fronting minor routes are defined as the number and type
of residences, schools, hospitals. and shopping centers having primary
access from the transportation route between the entrance of a facility
and the nearest major route.
Facilities should be located such that any minor routes from the major
route (state or interstate divided highway) to the facility are used
primarily by trucks, and the number of non-industrial structures
(homes. hospitals, schools. ,etc. is minimal,
The facility developer sha1l evaluate the "population It risk" based on
the Federal Highway Administration's Guidelines for Applying
Criteria 10 Designate Routes for Transporting Hazardous Materials.
The population It risk factor should not exceed that for existing
facilities, and sites with lower factors should be preferred.
Specific highway segments may be scheduled for CALTRANS
improvement
Transportation could be cunailed during peak use by IUtomobiles,
school traffic, etc,
3-S9

Zg. Highway accident rate
The highway accident rate is defined as the OCCUlTellce of minor to
fatal accidents per vehicle miles traveled. as recorded by the
California Department of Transportation.
The minimum time path from major martet areas to a facility should
follow highways with low to moderate average annual daily traffic
and accident rates, as guided by the research and fmdings of state,
regional, county. and city uansportation planners.
Specific highway segments may be scbeduled for CAL TRANS
improvements which may decrease highway accident rates.
Hazardous waste transportation could be cunailed during periods of
greatest automobile traffic.
The facility developer should work with the region. county. and city
uansponation planners in selecting alternate routes.
29. Capacity versus AADT of access roads
Capacity versus average annual daily traffic (AADT) of access roads
is defined as the number of vehicles that the road is designed to
handle versus the number of vehicles it does handle on a daily basis,
averaged over a period of one year.
The changes in the ratio of route capacity to average lIUIual daily
traffic should be negligible after calculating the number of tnlcks on
the major and minor routes expected to service the facility.
Facility developer may propose to upgrade the road(s) to provide
additional capacity.
PROTECT soaAL AND ECONOMIC GOALS
30. Consistency with General Plan
. Consistency with the General Plan is defined as consistency
of the proposed facility with the goals. objectives and policies
of the City as expressed by the General Plan, Specific Plans,
implementing ordinances. and other applicable programs.
. As provided by Section 25199.5 of the cauomia Health and
Safety Code. the consistency of any proposal with the
General Plan, Specific Plans. :rolling ordinances. and other
applicable programs sha1l be based on their provisions as in
3-60

decision is accepted 15 complete.
. The proposed facility should be sited at one of Ihe most
consistent locations within the City 15 reflected in the
General Plan. Specific Plans. zoning ordinanCeS. and other
applicable planning programs.
. The evaluation of consistenCy shall be based directly upon
&be provisions of the General Plan, Specific Plans and zoning
ordinanceS in effect. and shall not take inIo consideralion any
mitigation measures proposed by Ihe proponent to further
community goals which are not project specific and directly
related to Identified public health and safety. and
environmental concerns.
. Developer may petition for an l1IIendment to the General
Plan.
31. Direct revenue to the City
Direct revenue to the City is defmed 15 Ihe present wonh of the
dollar l1IIooot of lMual propeny W revenue and any other direct
payments (e.g.. local usage and per capita wes. hazardous waste

Fair Share
The Southern California Hazardous Waste Management Authority
(SCHWMA) provides oversight and coordination toward resolving local
government siting issues in Southern California through its Regional Action
Plan, which is in pan founded upon the (Fair Share "Principles") and (Fair
Share "Formula") discussed on pages IX-3S to -37 of the COHWMP, and as
may be amended from time to time. 11Iose Principles and Formula are
designed to require each county to fully address its waste U'eaunent needs
through either siting facilities within its borders, and/or establishing
intergovernmental agreements for treabDent capacity a1 facilities in other
counties, The basis for ,the Principles is that the level of waste generation in
most jurisdictions, and in some instances county-wide generation for cenain
waste streams, is less than that necessary to suppon an economically viable
waste treaID1ent facility. Therefore, not all jurisdictions will be host to a
facility,lnd many facilities will likely serve industry throughout the county,
as well as neighboring counties. As similar situations exist in most other
Southern California counties, regional cooperation is necessary to address the
siting of needed hazardous waste facilities both between and within counties.
In order to assure that no one local jurisdiction or subregional area is
excessively burdened with responsibility for county-wide or multi-county
. lreabDent needs, the Principles and Formula encourage facility siting where
there is a substantial unmet need for the type of U'eaunent which die facility
would provide. The Formula provides an allocation of needed large and small
facilities among Southern California counties based on their waste generation,
. with the intent that sites be sought as close to die major generating sources
as possible. Through the application of these fair share concepts, assurances
can be made that all cities and counties equitably share in the responsibility
for proper treatment and disposal of their entire waste stream. The Fair Share
Principles and Formula have been adopted as pan of the COHWMP, and are
10 be considered by local jurisdictions in making facility siting decisions.
The City recognizes the COHWMP's Fair Share Principes and Formula, and
will apply them in a fair share evaluative process when reviewing applications
fOl new 01 expanded hazardous waste facilities. It is the Fair Share Principle
of the City of OIula Vista that, assuming all other criteria for the siting and
sizing of a hazardous waste facility have been satisfied, including compliance
with die COHWMP's Fair Share Principles and Formula, die City should

grant such permits as are necessary for die tiiting of such a facility of a
proposed size within Its jurisdiction If die IIpplicant submits evidence
convincing to die City consistent with one of die following:
(1) the facility is necessary to treat hazardous waste in an
amount, and of a type and health risk. which Is in
approximately proportional relationship to die amount, type
and health risk of hazardous waste generated within a
. reasonable service area of die proposed facility, based on the
location of die generating sources proposed to be served in
comparison to substantially wunet needs within San Diego
County and lIS subregions ("Service Area Generation"); or,
(2) die facility is necessary to be sited and sized in 1be manner
proposed in order to anain a minimum level of economic
viability ("Minimum Economically Viable Size"), even
though the facility proposes to treat waste in excess of the
Service Area Generation; or,
(3) die facility is necessary to be sited and sized in the manner
proposed because there are no other locations within the
county-wide area capable of permitting 1be siting of the
facility, and/or die use of intergovenunental agreements to
address all or a portion of die amount of wastes proposed 10
be treated is infeasible ("Absence of Feasible Alternates"),

facility within Its borders, unless die Oty has already
accepted a fair and reasonable share of other regional serving
land uses generally considered adverse, Including but not

otheawlse existing within die County.
In order 10 facilitate the fair share evaluation. the Oty Iha1l require
submission of the following information:
I) The proponent Iha1l identify die location of waste sources.
and the respective volumes of the particular waste stream(s).
by generalized tIeatIIIent method ("GTM"). from each of
those sources it proposes 10 serve. including those specificalIy
known at the time of IIpplication. as well as those estimated
in the future.

2) For each county within which a source is identified above,
the proponent shall be required 10 submit the following data:
a. current existing and projected county-wide waste
generation. and treattnent needs by GTM. by
subregion, The subregions shall be those as
identified in the respective County's Hazardous
Waste Management Plan.
b. an invenlory of existing treatment facilities and their
capacities by GTM. Said invenlory should indicate
whether any of that capacity is sutplus based, on
exiting treattnent volumes,
c. all existing effective and pending intergovernmental
agreements with other counties, including the amount
and type of wastes involved. by GTM. and the
affected treattnent facilities,

fourth fair share scenario. the proponent shall submit a map
indicating the current location and distribution within San
Diego County of those regionally serving land uses generally
considered adverse, including but not limited 10 those listed.
In addition, the City may survey the efforts put forth by the communities
from within which the involved wastes are being generated, 10 recognize
treattnent responsibilities and reduce their off-site treabnent needs through
promoting on-site treattnent and waste minimization. Based on an analysis
of the above noted infonnation, the City shall identify any concerns with

Resource Recycling Technologies, a Waste Water Tre~fmro.ot Facility
Resource Recycling Technologies (RRT) is proposing to site a waste wat.er treatment facility in
Chula Vista that will serve the greater San Diego County area. There primary markets arc car
wash sludge, restaurant grease trappings, septic tank sludge aDd bilge, CUl'l'attly, responsible
generators contract with hauling companies that transport most of these materia1s to Los ADgeles
County and other distant locations where they are treated and recycled into new products or
disposed, Their are some irresponsible generators that create sever envir<1lw.ooAJt.j.1 problems I?y
improperly disposing of !bese roarerlals in local storm drains and waterways.
A major component of the waste water treatment process is removing and dcbydrating solids.
Ordinarily, the solids are not burieclln the same type of landfills tbat contBln numlcipal solid
waste and the process is exempt fTom the CaIifomia Integrated Waste MaDagcmem Act of 1989
(An 939). U1XIer AB 939. the City of Chula Vista is required to divert or reduce its total annual
waste sent to landfills 25% by 1995 and 50% by the year 2000%.
RRT is proposing an "improved" technology that cleans !be water and solids in a IDIIIIDCf that
allows the solids to be safely disposed of In a landfill. RRT's business plan estimates that the
facUity would gellCl'8te and laOOfill approximately 8,000 tons of solids pee year of operation. ,By
landfilling its solids RRT would be adding apJIfOxlmatloly 8,000 tons of wasI'e to the Ciqt's annual
waste generation and jeopardize its progress towards meeting the 25 % and SO$ m~M~1'P1I goals.
To put that in pexspective, RRT's annual disposal estimate is greatcr tIW1 the diversion currentJy
achieved by the City's curbside aDd multi-ramlly recycliDg programs. ImT'c proposed disposal
would negatively offset the benefit of both programs.
If RRT were to recycle. compost or reuse at least 50% of the solids generated, In some JMnnM
other than burning, the facility woold have a nentral impact on the City's solid was~ 'diversion
goals. If the faclli1y recycles IIIOIC than 50% of tis sol Ids It could have a positive Impact 011 solid
waste goals. Addjtionally, a cost effective, local u-- facility could help to RXIucc 01'
eliminate improper disposal. F\na1ly. It would be to ImT's best interest to identify and use an
alternative to local disposal. Locallaodfill prices for C\uJla Vista are cum:nt1y $74 pet ton aDd
may go as high as $130 per ton by 1~ 1995. It would cost RRT})etweeD $600,000 and
$1,000.000 per year to landfill their .sollds 1oeal1y.cRRT'slnitialdiscwlslonswith Qrganics
