H AMENDMENT TO THE SAN DIEGO REGION SOLID CITY ATTY. I WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN (COSWMP) CITY MGR. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve Resolution No. ?3 -2S approving an amendment to the COSWMP which will include the Camp Pendleton Ysidora Landfill and the SANDER project at Miramar. ITEM EXPLANATION: The Government Code requires that any changes to the Regional Solid Waste Management Plan be approved by a majority of cities having the majority of the region's population. The proposed amendment would: 1. Include a new landfill on Camp Pendleton to serve the Camp's population at Ysidora Flats, and; 2. Include the relocation of the SANDER project (a waste to energy plant) from its previous location to a site in the Miramar area. The project will be privately owned and funded by state bonds. Tipping fees and energy sales will provide sufficient revenues to finance the bonds. A detailed discussion of the changes is included in a letter from the Department of Public Works attached as Exhibit 1. The appropriate environmental notices (Exhibits 2 and 3) have been executed by the Director of Planning and will be forwarded after the Council's approval of the COSWMP amendment. FISCAL IMPACT: None. EXHIBITS: 1. Letter from Director of Public Works to City Manager of November 5, 1985.

Because of changes in the wasteshed, site and quantity of waste to be processed, the California Waste Management Board advised that the discussion of the SANDER Project in the existing COSWMP must be updated and amended to reflect these changes before a conformance finding with the existing COSWMP can be made. The United States Marine Corps (USMC) has requested that the existing CoSWMP be amended to include the proposed Ysidora Landfill at Camp Pendleton so that the County can make a Finding of Conformance with the COSWMP as part of the facility permitting process. In accordance with Government Code §66784 an amendment to the CoSWMP is being processed by the County to include the proposed Ysidora Landfill at Camp Pendleton and the SANDER Project at Miramar. The Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution approving the COSWMP Amendment for the projects on October 29, 1985 subject to approval by the incorporated cities. State law [Government Code §66780.5(c)] requires that any amendment to the COSWMP be approved by a majority of the cities within the County which contain a majority of the population of the incorporated area. Specific information on the CoSWMP Amendment is discussed below. 04) SANDER Projecfi Specific text changes (Attachment #1) for the SANDER Project CoSWMP Amendment include replacing existing pages V-6 through V-12 and Appendix A-V-3 with an updated discussion on the project wasteshed, site, quantity of waste to the processed and permitting requirements; deletion of the discussion regarding incinerator residue on page VIII-16 because the State Department of Health Services has classified the fly ash, bottom ash and flue gas emission control residues to be generated by the SANDER Project as non -hazardous; revision of the discussion of the composition of the SANDER Board of Directors on page X-4 to reflect the current composition of that Board, composed of two members from the County Board of Supervisors and two members from the San Diego City Council. The Implementation Schedule on page 19 is also being revised to reflect timing of the project construction and start-up. County Counsel has advised that Section 15271 of the State CEQA Guidelines exempts from CEQA review the CoSWIlP Amendment for the SANDER Project since the SANDER Project is a thermal power plant subject to the permitting requirements of the California Energy Commission (CEC), a process that is functionally the equivalent of the CEQA process. The County Department of Planning and Land Use has prepared a Notice of Exemption for the project (Attachment `2). A draft Notice of Exemption is included which each incorporated city should complete, sign and file with the County Clerk as required by CEQA's process for Notices of Exerption following approval of the SAIIDER Project Amendment (Attachment #3). Ysidora Landfill Specific text changes (Attachment n4) for the Ysidora Landfill CoSWMP Amendment include revising pages 20 and III-27 to include information on the operation of the landfill and projected implementation date. An environmental assessment pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) was prepared for the Ysidora Landfill project by the Marine Corps. A finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) was issued by the Marine Corps Command in Apr I1 of 1984. The Department of Planning and Land Use, Environmental Analysis Division, recommended that a Ilegative Declaration be issued for the proposed project on September 26, 1985 (Attachment #5). A draft Notice of Determination has been prepared for the Ysidora Landfill CoSWMP Amendment and should be filed with the County Clerk and Office of Planning and Research following approval by your city (Attachment #6). Due to the time involved in securing permits for these facilities, the CoSWMP Amendment for the Camp Pendleton and SANDER Projects is being processed at this time rather than with the formal plan revision process, estimated to be completed by late 1986, which you were advised of by letters dated August 8, and September 10, 1985. - 3- k As mentioned previously, CoSWMP Amendments must be approved by a majority of the cities with a majority of the population of the incorporated area. Please contact the Solid Waste Division so that a hearing date for this matter can be arranged. Department staff will be available to attend the necessary hearing and will work with your staff on the report to your Council. A draft Resolution of Approval is included (Attachment #7). If your City fails to act within 90 days after receiving the amendment, f C.e., February 7, 1986), State law deems it to be approved [Government Coue §66780.5(c)]. If you have any questions please call Sharon J. Reid, Solid Waste Program t Manager, at 565-3987. t Very truly yours, F l N.E.
