Council also dire the Planning Director to bring the matter before the Planning Commission publ i c hearing and recommendation to the Counci 1 . The P1 anning Commi s recommended approval of the amendments on August 2, 1989. On-shore oil gas support facilities include, but are not limited to processing pla refineries, storage facilities, transfer stations, pipelines, warehou offices, tanker terminals and helicopter pads. The amendments include proposed findings that must be made by the Council in order for facilities to be permitted. Generally the findings deal with compatibi with the neighborhood, the potential threat of damage or injuries to ne residents, possible adverse environmental effects, and whether the pro is permitted in the underlying zone. The proposed Zone Code Amendment would prohibit on-shore oil and facilities in all zones except C-M (Heavy Commercial-Limited Industrial (Industrial), and P-M (Planned Industrial). In those zones suck faci 1 i would require a planned industrial permit pursuant to Chapter 21.34 a conditional use permit pursuant to Chapter 21.50. The proposed amendment to all six segments of the Local Coastal Plan was available for a six week public review period. That review period sta on May 24, 1989 and ended July 5, 1989. An oversized publ i c notice of proposed amendment was publ i shed in the B1 ade Tribune. Six 1 etters received all in support of the proposed amendments. General Plan and I Coastal P1 an amended pol icy 1 anguage states that the support facil itie: prohibited because of potential adverse impacts and incompati bil i ty adjacent existing uses unless the six findings are made. The City Attorney is recommending that the amendment not absolutely pro1 provides administrative remedies and has been modeled after other ordin' that have not been successfully challenged. The proposed amendments pri policy direction and a regulatory means to restrict the areas of use an conditions under which the uses may be allowed. For further inform the uses pending litigation in other communities.

Propos facilities would be subject to review through either a Plan1 Industrial Permit or a Conditional Use Permit dependent upon 1 particular zone. Since there are no applications presenl pending for such facilities there is no reason to phase I applicability of the amendments. b) The proposed project does not include a site design or des: standards, therefore, alternative desiqns were not evaluated, c) A specific construction project is not proposed as part of tl project.

In addition, the amendment provide: means to review such proposals for those zones where it may permitted. f) Alternative sites were not evaluated since a specific site is proposed for development. g) The no project alternative would result in the City not adopt policies directed at on-shore oil and gas support faciliti.es ( not providing a process within which such proposals can reviewed. Therefore, the no project alternative has environmental advantage. - YES MAY BE 22. Mandatory findinss of sisnificance - a. Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wild- life species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or en- dangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or b. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the dis- advantage of long-term, environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time while long-term impacts will endure well into the future.) - -7- e 0 c. Does the project have the possible environmental effects which are in- dividually limited but cumulatively considerable? (l'cumulatively con- siderable" 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.) d. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? " 111. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION The proposed amendments will reduce the potential for adverse envir effects which can be caused by on-shore suport facilities. Such effects can include increased air pollution, water pollution, noise, visual, scenic and aesthetic impacts. 11.1. Earth: The proposed project, consisting of various code and plan ame contemplates no grading. 11.3 Water: The proposal will not impact existing drainage courses or change ab rates. 11.4 Plant Life; 5. Animal Life: No impact to plant or animal life will occur as the proposed amend not include development of a particular site. 11.8 Land Use The proposed amendments will prevent to the greatest extent poss alteration of the planned land use of areas designated for Heavy com Limited Industrial, Industrial, and Planned Industrial Developmen will be accomplished by prohibiting the establishment of on-shore facilities except upon the Council making the proposed findings and a Planned Industrial Permit or Conditional Use Permit depending zone of the property. -8- . ? m DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMEN AL EVALUATION (Continued) -11.9 Natural Resources The proposal Will assist in the preservation of natural resoul reducingthe potential for adverse environmental impacts related to 0 support facilities. 11.12 Housing The proposed amendment will not create a demand for additional housir prohibiting on-shore support facilities will not create job opport resulting in increasing the need for housing. 11.18 Aesthetics: The amendments provide a review process for on-shore support fac which enables future environmental review to take place for visu,al i 11.19 Recreation The proposed amendments will protect the quality and want recreational opportunities by prohibiting on-shore oil and gas facilities unless specified conditions are found to exist. The process for such facilities will provide for consideration of imF recreation areas such as public beaches and related uses. -9- TV. DETERMINATION (TO e Be Completed By The Planning w Department) On the basis of this initial evaluation: X I find the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a siqnific, effect on the environment, there Will not be a significant effec this case because the mitigation measures described on an attack sheet have been added to the project. A Conditional Neqative Declaration will be proposed. I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on thl environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. n 573 1/87 An % - / ' Date Signature 1". / '., Gc -1 j,ii Lt .

Gary Wayne, Principal Planner, reviewed the background of the request and stated that the proposed amendments to the Land Use Element of the General Plan, all six segments of the Local Coastal Plan, and a Zone Code amendment were initiated by the City Council on March 21, 1989. The Council on that date adopted a resolution declaring its intent to consider amending the above documents to prohibit on-shore oil and gas support facilities unless they are found to be compatible with the plans, policy, and ordinances of the City. The type of support facilities considered were processing plants, refineries, storage facilities, transfer stations, pipelines, warehouses, offices, tanker terminals, and helicopter pads. The findings that would be required by the Council deal with compatibility with the neighborhood, the potential threat of damage or injuries to nearby residents, possible adverse environmental effect, and whether the project is permitted in the underlying zone. The proposed ZCA would prohibit the location of these support facilities in all zones except our three industrial zones (C-My M, and P-M) , In those zones such facilities would require a planned industrial permit pursuant to Chapter 21.34 and a Conditional Use Permit. The proposed amendment has already undergone a six-week public review period where copies of the amendment were circulated to interested parties as well as publication of an oversized ad in the Blade-Tribune. During that six-week AugusE 2, 1,989 Pw COMMISSION Page 8 0 review period, only six letters were received, all in support of the proposed amendments, which are on file in the Planning Department. The City Attorney's office is recommending that the amendment not absolutely prohibit these uses due to pending litigation in other communities that have established similar ordinances. The ordinances were modeled after the ordinances of other cities which have not been challenged. Staff feels that the proposed amendments provide policy direction and recommends approval. Commissioner Holmes requested confirmation that the ordinance will not be retroactive. Gary Wayne replied that this is correct. Commissioner Erwin inquired if the SDG&E facilities at Encina would be affected in any way. Gary Wayne replied that SDG&E is not affected because they are an existing use and their storage facilities are for the generation of electricity rather than off-shore drilling. Any expansion of that use would require an amendment to the Specific Plan and would require discretionary action. Commissioner McFadden inquired if pending litigation is due to a total ban of support facilities. Ron Ball, Assistant City Attorney, replied that a trial court ruling was made partially in favor of the Western Oil and Gas Association, which is on appeal before the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Chairman Hall opened the public testimony and issued the invitation to speak. There being no persons desiring to address the Commission on this topic, Chairman Hall declared the public testimony closed and opened the item for discussion among the Commission members. Commissioner Schlehuber inquired of the City Attorney if Resolution No. 2898, line 21, could be reworded to strike the reference to discouraging on-shore support facilities. He would like Finding #2 to read, "The proposed amendments will serve to provide a review process which ...'I. Ron Ball replied that the comment is well taken. Motion was duly made, seconded, and carried to adopt Erwin Planning Commission Resolution No. 2898 approving the Hall Negative Declaration issued by the Planning Director, and Holmes adopt Planning Commission Resolution Nos. 2899, 2900, and Marcus 2901, approving GPA/LU 89-2, LCPA 89-1, and ZCA 89-1 based McFadden on the findings contained therein, with the correction Schlehuber to Line 21 of Resolution No. 2898 as suggested.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The proposed amendments to the Land Use Element of the General Plan, all segments of the Local Coastal Plan, and the Zoning Code were initiated bj declaring its intent to consider amending the above documents to prohibit shore oil and gas support facilities unless they are found to be compatible the plans, policies and ordinances of the City. Council also directed Planning Director to bring the matter before the Planning Commission for PI hearing and recommendation to the Council. On-shore oil and gas SUI facilities include, but are not limited to processing plants, refineries, st( facilities, transfer stations, pipelines, warehouses, offices, tanker term and helicopter pads. The amendments include six proposed findings that mu made by the Council in order for such facil ities to be permitted. General 1 findings deal with compatibility with the neighborhood, the potential thre damage or injuries to nearby residents, possible adverse environmental effl and whether the project is permitted in the underlying zone. The proposed Zoning Code Amendment would prohibit on-shore oil and gas facil in all zones except C-M (Heavy-Commercial -Limited Industri a1 ) , M (Industr and P-M (Planned Industrial). In those zones such facil i ties would requ planned industri a1 permit pursuant to Chapter 21.34 and a conditional use p City Council on March 21, 1989. The Council on that date adopted a resoli pursuant to Chapter 21 30. The proposed amendment to all six segments of the Local Coastal Plan was available for a six-week public review period.

Six letters have been, rec all in support of the proposed amendments. CITY OF CARLSBAD a GPA/LU 89-2/LCPA 89-1/ZCA 89-1 August 2, 1989 PAGE 2 111. ANALYSIS Planninq Issues 1. Does the proposed amendment provide adequate policy justificatio prohibiting on-shore oil and gas support facilities? 2. Does the proposed amendment include findings which address the locat concerns associated with on-shore oil and gas support facilities? 3. Will the proposed zone code amendment provide adequate controls fc siting and review of such facilities should they be proposed? DISCUSSION A. General Plan Amendment and Local Coastal Plan Amendment The proposed amendment to the Land Use Element of the General Plan and Coastal Plans would prohibit on-shore oil and gas support facilities excep the City Council finding that all of the proposed six findings are true. amendment includes policy language stating why such facilities are proh. such as that they present adverse environmental impacts which may il catastrophic environmental damage to the marine ecosystem. In addition, fl adverse environmental impacts as increased air pollution, water pollution, I traffic, visual, scenic and aesthetic impacts may occur as the result 01 facilities. The City Attorney is recommending that the amendment not absolutely prohi b shore facilities as litigation is pending on whether it is legally permi' to do so. The proposed amendment provides certain administrative remedies must be exhausted prior to resorting to the courts for judicial re1 ief. includes the City Council making all of the proposed six findings. The la proposed for the General P1 an. B. Zone Code Amendment As stated previously, the proposed Zone Code Amendment would prohibit on oil and gas facilities in all zones except C-M, M and P-M. In those zl conditional use permit would be required. The findings required to be rn grant a conditional use permit are found at Section 21.42.020 of the Zoning In addition five findings are proposed specifically for on-shore s facilities. By limiting the potential location for such uses to the three districts specified there is less likelihood for land use conflicts to o The findings required to be made to site such facilities require the eval of potential environmental, land use, and health and safety impacts of pr facilities. Being able to make all of the required findings for a specifi will be difficult. This will serve to discourage such facilities and assur be proposed. for the amendment to each of the six local coastal plans is identical ti all of the potential impacts associated with such uses are evaluated shoul CITY OF CARLSBAD 6 0 GPA/LU 89-2/LCPA 89-1/ZCA 89-1 August 2, 1989 PAGE 3 SUMMARY The proposed amendments do not completely prohi bit on-shore support facil it This is a result of pending litigation on whether or not local absc prohibitions against on-shore facilities are legally permissible. The pror amendments provide policy direction and a regulatory means of restricting tc greatest extent possible, the areas in which these facilities may locate : the current legal parameters. A1 1 proposed on-shore oil and gas sur facilities would require the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit in addi to making the proposed findings. Staff recommends that the Planning Commi: recommend APPROVAL of the amendments to the City Council. IV.
