We under- stand that these complaints allege excessive noise, dust, and damage to the dwellings in this development. This letter is €or informational purposes and 1 briefly explain South Coast Asphalt Products Company's posture in this very sei matter. South Coast Asphalt Products Company is constantly striving to be a gc neighbor and we are very sorry about these present complaints. We recognize tk necessity of mitigating the "objectionable" features of our operation as quick1 as technology and economics permit. We also recognize that this necessity in- creases directly with the increase in residences in our immediate vicinity. TI company has been in business in its present location since 1960, the character and volume of the operation has not changed materially in the past six years. We are engaged in the quarrying and crushing of rock, and from this we manufact basic building materials for roads, streets, highways, concrete aggregates and asphalt concrete for paving and other construction uses. Our products are sold to federal agencies, state, cities, local agencies, contractors, and the public In fact, a fair amount of our crushed rock has been used for landscaping in the Costa Serena development. Specifically, we have utilized the following methods and equipment to comply wi various agencies such as, but not limited to the following: San Diego County A Pollution Control District, (A.P.C.D.) , California Occupational Safety and Heal Act. (Cal. O.S.H.A.), the Federal Bureau of Mines, the Regional Water Quality C' trol Board, the State Fire Marshal, San Diego County Sheriff, the Conditionalt U Permit granted by the City of Carlsbad, and our neighbors. We invite you to in of the many agencies to which we are subject as to our conformance with their m regulations. In June 1975 we installed on our asphalt plants, sound suppressio devices costing in excess of $60,000. Prior to that in 1973 and 1974 we instal dry fabric dust collecting systems on our plants, replacing the water spray ~iys that then met, and still meet current A.P.C.D. regulations concerning particula emissions. These dust collecting systems cost in excess of $500,000. The equil ment mentioned above exceed present and proposed future A.P.C.D. and Cal. 0.9.H PLANT LOCATED 3.1 MILES EAST OF 1-5 SOUTH SIDE OF HIGHWAY 78 (VISTA WAY) CARLSBAD e -2- m regulations. We have paved our main access roads and use water trucks daily t control dust in our plant areas. We own and operate a road sweeper on our roa and also on Haymar Road which is the sole city owned access road to our locati In accordance with our permit we maintain and operate water sprays at our rock crushing plant to control dust during the crushing and transfer of material. All of our equipment is operated with sound suppression devices in accordance current Cal. O.S.H.A. regulations. In order to assure ourselves that we meet regulations we monitor our sound and also ground vibration from the blasting t is necessary in our quarry operation, The most recent readings of sound level were taken as recently as 7:30 a.m. this morning from locations on our propert line and also across Highway 78 adjacent to Costa Serena. These readings indi to us that the noise level, although somewhat constant during the day, does no exceed that of ordinary traffic noise on Highway 78. Attached are abstracts o several vibration and noise tests conducted during the time a blast has taken place in our quarry, the complete test results are available at your request. Although our permit does not set hours of operation we normally operate our ro plant and asphalt plants from 7:OO a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday thru Friday. Our industry is cyclic and subject to shutdown during inclement weather. In antic pation of wet weather our customer orders often peak in the late fall and earl: winter. During these peak demand periods we may operate our plants between thl hours of 6:OO a.m. and 6:OO p.m., and revert to our normal hours as soon as co ditions permit. cases of emergency and then only for a few days as is necessary. A copy of a. letter is attached showing the type of emergency activity to which we may rsspl We do have maintenance men who work evenings doing necessary repair to our pla. equipment and trucks. The repair activity does not constitute running any of I major equipment, except for the occasional activation of an empty material bel for test purposes. Finally, we at South Coast Asphalt are somewhat puzzled as to why the complain did not first make us aware of their complaints. This company is locally owne and operated, the employees are all local, indeed several connected with the c( pany live in the Costa Serena area. We, as local residents, are sensitive to 1 criticisms of our livelyhood and make every attempt to respond to this criticis in a positive way. We would be happy to meet with representatives of the comp: ants, so that they may better understand our operations and the problems attenc thereto and so that we can understand the specifics of their dissatisfaction a respond to them. Sincerely, We have exceeded the self-imposed 6:OO p.m. shutdown only in Do M.

Air blast vibrations were also recorded on October 6. This investigation was performed in order to quantita- tively evaluate ground and air blast vibrations in terms of their capability to damage neighboring residential structures and other I improvements in the area. 1 This study was performed at the request of California i Drilling G Blasting Company which conducted the drilling and blasl ing operations. BLAST DATA Both quarry blasts were located in the northerly portion 1 of the third quarry bench counted from the highest elevation in the quarry. Essential blast data are tabulated as follows: Blast Date May 20, 1976 October 6, 1976 Time 5:30 P.M. 6:30 P.M. No. of Blast Holes 125 97 Hole diameter, inches 3 3 Hole depth, feet 44 44 .

This blast overpressure, 0.0074 pounds per square inch, corresponds to a wind gust velocity of approximately 16 miles per hour. HUMAN RESPONSE TO VIBRATION The human body is sensitive to all forms of vibration. It is not reliable, however, as a quantitative measuring device. Personal evaluation of ground or building vibration depends on the displacement, the frequency, the direction of the vibration, and the activity and the temperament of the individual. In order to illustrate the relative magnitudes of vibration in their gen- eral perspective as related to human response, the following scale is included for vertical vibration when the subject is standing: Perceptible to some 4 units Perceptible to most 7 units Well noticeable 15 units Unpleasant 30 units Disturbing 50 units Objectionable 60 units Plaster cracks (contributory) 100 units The evaluation of vibration is influenced by what a person hears. Ground vibration accompanied by blast noise is generally judged to be more intense than ground vibration not accompanied by noise. 0 I, 1 0 i Q;c Our Job 76-65 Page 7 QiG pi/ I -?,’,+- --- -+-- CONCLUSION Ground and air blast vibrations measured during this investigation were well within safe limits as concerns the well- being of all improvements in the area surrounding the Streuter Quarry.
