RESOLUTION NO.'81-117
RESOLUTION APPROVING AMENDMENT TO SAN JOAQUIN
COUNTY SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN
WHEREAS, the San Joaquin County Solid Waste Policy
Committee has recommended the amendment of the San Joaquin
County Solid Waste Management Plan by the deletion of the
requirement that the search for a new Central County landfill
site be confined to an area within a ten mile radius of the
Lovelace Transfer Station;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that this Council hereby
approves an amendment to the San Joaquin County Solid Waste
Management Plan which would delete the fourth full paragraph
of the section entitled "Recommendations for Central County",
found at page 10-9 of the San Joaquin County Solid Waste Manage-
ment Plan, which paragraph reads as follows:
"The search for the new site should
initially be in an area within approximately a
10 mile radius of the Lovelace Transfer Station
in accordance with the constraints shown in
Figure 8-4 and listed in Table 10-1."
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Council finds that:
(a) this amendment will not have the potential to
degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce
the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or
wildlife population to drop below self sustain levels, threaten
to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or
restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or
eliminate important examples of the major periods of California
history or prehistory;
(b) this amendment will not have the potential to
achieve short-term environmental goals to the disadvantage of
long-term environmental goals;
(c) this amendment will not have possible environmental
effects which are individually limited but cumulatively consider-
able. "Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental
effects of an individual project are considerable when viewed
in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of
other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects;

ment will not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,

(e) as a result of the foregoing subparagraphs (a),
(b), (c), and (d), the preparation of an Environmental Impact
Report pursuant to the Environmental Quality Act of 1970 is
not required.
