If pl-fi 1 I 1 1,1 e e ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST FORM INTRODUCTION East Carbon Development Corporation Environmental, L. C. (ECDC) has submitted a conditional use permit application to the City of Vernon requesting permission to construct and operate a freight terminal. This Initial study has been prepared to determine if the construction and operation of this facility will have a significant effect upon the environment. This study has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The City of Vernon will use this Initial study as a basis for deciding whether to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) or approve a Negative Declaration. PROJECT LOCATION AND EXISTING LAND USE The facility will be located at 3535 Washington Boulevard in the City of Vernon. The operation will take place on a vacant portion of Union Pacific Railways Yard. The project site is surrounded by Industrial and Distribution type uses. The nearest residential dwelling is located more than 1600 feet north of the site. The attached vicinity map depicts the local vicinity and shows the relationship of the facility to major highways in the Los Angeles area. The site is zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial,' and a freight terminal is allowed in this area with a conditional use permit. PROJECT DESCRIPTION East Carbon Development Corporation Environmental, L.C. proposes to operate a freight terminal at the project site. They intend to import to the site a maximum of 20,000 tons a week of non-hazardous soil from various construction sites in the area. They expect that a maximum of 129 trucks will deliver the soil to the site daily with 70% of the truck movements occurring during off peak hours. The soil will be dumped onto an impervious work pad and then transferred by loaders to railcars for out of state shipment. The subject site is a portion of Union Pacific Railroad Yard and is currently used for maintenance operations. A conditional use permit is required per the City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. MITIGATION MONITORING Public Resources Code section 21081.6 requires that agencies adopt a monitoring or reporting program for any project which it has made findings pursuant to Public Code 21081 or adopted a Negative Declaration pursuant to section 21080(c). The mitigating measures identified in this initial study, if adopted as part of a 2 e e Negative Declaration as anticipated, must be monitored for implementation per Public Resource Code section 21081.6. If the freight terminal project is approved/as proposed, the permit issued by the city of Vernon will, when appropriate, specify a schedule of compliance for all mitigating measures imposed in the project approval package. The City will routinely conduct inspections and investigations at the facility for compliance with permit requirements. ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST FORM ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS: I.

The soil will contain low levels of hydrocarbons. All soil will be tested prior to being transported to the site. Trucks will off-load the dirt on to a specially constructed work pad that will have a containment berm to hold the hydrocarbon impacted soils within a defined area. The work pad will be completely underlain with a lining system consisting of from top to bottom, a permeable operationslleach collection system, a low permeability barrier layer consisting of clay andlor polyethylene geomembrane and a leak detection system. The work pad will include a precipitation runoff control system. The system will control and collect any precipitation runoff which may come in contact with hydrocarbon soils at the facility. A washing pad will also be constructed. Trucks transporting soils to the facility will be cleaned at the truck washing pad to remove soils which may be adhering to their tires or exterior surface. This will eliminate soil from being tracked off site. In addition the soil will be sprayed with water as being dumped, in order to keep dust to a minimum. with the construction of the work pad, wash pad and the water spraying, no adverse impacts to the earth or water resources are anticipated. AIR QUALITY ECDC Environmental, L.C. proposes to have a maximum of 129 trucks unload at the site. In addition a front loader will load the soil onto the railcars. The concentration of vehicles in one location may have some minor effects on the air quality however, overall air quality in the region will be improved. Instead of transporting the soil long distances to landfills or other alternative destinations, the ECDC facility, on an emissions basis, is therefore more efficient per ton of soil transported by train rather than truck. The ECDC facility will incorporate a wqter truck spray system that will eliminate dust during loading and unloading process. All loads will be covered while being transported. All trucks exiting the site will be washed to remove soil that may have adhered to the wheels or body. Prior to operation a permit and or approvals must be obtained from the South Coast Air Quality Management District. with the installation of the dust control system no adverse impacts to the air quality are expected. BIOLOGICAL The proposed project will not have a significant effect ont he existing biological resources in the area. No endangered or threatened species are expected to be found on the site. " It e NOISE The project site is within a portion of Union Pacific's yard and is surrounded by industrial and commercial uses. The noise generated by the facility will not cause a significant effect on the environment. LIGHT AND GLARE The project, as proposed, will provide lights for work during the night time hours. However since the site is located in an industrial area and the existing adjacent railroad yards Are heavily lighted at night, no impacts from light are anticipated. The project, as proposed, will create no glare. LAND USE The project area is zoned Heavy Industry, M-2. A freight terminal is allowed in this zone with a conditional use permit. NATURAL RESOURCES Diesel fuel is used to operate the vehicles. This would not be a significant impact, due to the relatively small scale of the project and the small amount of materials used. RISK OF UPSET The imported soil will contain a slight amount of hydrocarbons, but is classified as being non-hazardous in accordance with Federal and State standards. No risk is therefore associated with the soil. A high pressure gas main travels along the west side of the site. If this gas main were to be damaged a major explosion or fire could result. As a mitigating measure a fence or guard post system will have to be installed prior to operation. This fence will thereby eliminate the potential of loaders or other heavy equipment from digging into the line. Trucks will also be prevented from driving over the main. POPULATION AND HOUSING The facility will employ from 5 to 10 people. No change in population or housing will occur as a result of the project. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION The project has access to Washington Boulevard. The access driveway is at a signalized intersection. The facility expects to have 129 trucks per day visit the site. Seventy percent of these trucks will arrive at the site during off peak hours, between 7 pm and 5 am. The remaining 30 percent of the trucks, approximately 39 , will arr i ve dur ing the peak hours, between 5 am and 7 pm. Washington Boulevard has two traffic lanes in each direction with a left turn pocket at the intersection. Washington Boulevard has , . e e an average daily traffic count of over 18,700. All streets to be utilized have adequate capacity to handle the traffic generated by the facility. PUBLIC SERVICES No additional public services will be required for this facility. ENERGY There will be no impact to the City of Vernon Light and Power Department. The energy used by this operation will be negligible. HUMAN HEALTH The soil being transferred at the site is classified as non- hazardous. Sanitation facilities currently exist on the site. Therefore, no health hazards are associated with this project. AESTHETICS The area .surrounding the property is made up of industrial and commercial uses. The facility will blend in and not create any offensive visual effect. RECREATIONAL There will be no significant impact to any recreational resources in the area. CULTURAL RESOURCES There are no known historic buildings or cultural sites in the area. No archaeological or historical objects are expected to be found during construction. XXIII DISCUSSION OF LAND IMPACTS The proposed project is in conformance with the City of Vernon General Plan. The zoning of the site is M-2, which allows freight terminals with a conditional use permit. No impacts to surrounding properties are expected. discussion.ecd i e e SPECIFIC COMMENTS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST FORM The following comments pertain to specific items listed within the "Environmental Checklist Form" and checked maybe. Specific comments are addressed below and are noted by corresponding numbers. 1. The operation could potentially emit a substantial amount of dust. However, a mitigating measure will require that no dust be allowed to be emitted across the property line. Water trucks will be utilized to thoroughly wet the soil to keep dust to a minimum. 2. The runoff from the site could allow sedimentation to be discharged into the storm drain system. Additionally soil could be tracked off the site on vehicle wheels and then later washed into the storm drains during a storm. The city will require that vehicles be washed before exi ting the si te. Additionally the City will require the site to be graded and designed so that no soil or sediment shall enter the storm drain, City street or neighboring properties. A Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plan must also be submitted to the City for approval. 3. The project site will be located adjacent to a high pressure gas main and electrical transmission tower. Damage to either facility could cause a catastrophic event, including explosion or fire. The potential does exist that heavy equipment operating on the site could damage these structures. The City will require that either a wall or guard post system be installed in order to protect these facilities. 4. The project will generate approximately 150 additional vehicular movements to the site. Washington Boulevard has an average daily traffic count of over 18,000. The streets that will be utilized have adequate capacity to handle the additional traffic. In addition 70% of the traffic traveling to the site will occur during the off peak hours for the streets, between 7 pm and 5 am. 5. The project site is located in an active railroad yard. There is a potential for train-truck conflicts. In order to prevent any accidents the City will require that at locations where vehicles will travel over an active railroad track that either railroad crossing protection devices be installed or a full time flagman be placed at the crossing to direct traffic. The site access point is at a traffic signal this will allow vehicles to enter and exit the site in a safe manner. conments.ecd e City of Vernon o (j) 4305 San" Fe Avenue I 1 ' Vernon, California 90058 ' (213) 583-8811 NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING The City of Vernon will conduct a Public Hearing which you may attend.

(i) MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM EAST CARBON DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION ENVIRONMENTAL, FREIGHT TERMINAL L.C. Introduction The Negative Declaration prepared for the ECDC Environmental, L.C. freight terminal project (state Clearinghouse No. 94071023) indicates that the proposal may have potential impacts on the environment in the absence of any mitigation. The Negative Declaration indicates specific measures and programs that should be adopted as part of the development approval to ensure the potential adverse impacts are mitigated. In accordance with requirements of section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code, the City Council makes the following additional findings: That a mitigation reporting and monitoring program shall implemented as specified for the ECDC Environmental, L. C. freight terminal project. Site plans and/or building plans, submitted for approval by the responsible monitoring agency, have included required mitigation measures/conditions; and That an accountable enforcement agency and monitoring agency shall be identified for mitigation measureslconditions adopted as part of the decision maker's final determination. This Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) was prepared by the City of Vernon Community Services Department in accordance with AB 3180. The comprehensive MMP presents the mitigation measures which have been adopted as conditions of approval by the Vernon City Council, in conjunction with the adoption of the Negative Declaration prepared for this project, and the respective monitoring of these measures to be conducted by City staff or their environmental consultant. The MMP will serve a dual purpose of verifying implementation of the mitigation measures for the freight terminal project and of generating information the effectiveness of the mitigation measures to guide future mitigation programs. , Scope of the MMP The environmental analysis contained in the Initial Study incorporated herein by reference, focused on issues determined to be potentially significant by the City of Vernon. The environmental analysis concluded that the environmental issues discussed in the Initial Study, the significant and potentially significant impacts could be avoided or reduced to a level below 1 . . significance through the implementation of recommended mitigation measures. Components of the MMP The MMP is comprised of three separate phases of monitoring to ensure that all project mitigation measures have been fully implemented: (1) monitoring that will occur prior to issuance of permit; (2) monitoring that will occur during the project's construction; and (3) monitoring that will occur on an on-going basis throughout the life-time of the project. Monitorinq Prior. to Permit Issuance The first phase of the monitoring will occur prior to the issuance of proj ect permits (e. g., CUP, Solid Waste Facility Permit, building permit and grading permit) and will involve review and approval, by the City or other agencies, of the various design details and plans necessary to implement the project. The Initial Study calls for certain grading and design details, as well as other specific plans to be implemented during project operations. City staff and other agencies, as part of their plan review, will check to make sure that the required items have been incorporated into these plans. Monitorinq Durinq Construction Once the mitigation measures have been adopted as conditions of approval by the City of Vernon, a construction monitoring team will be identified. Managing the team will be the responsibility of a mitigation compliance coordinator at the City. Prior to any project implementation activities, a pre- construction meeting will take place between the city of Vernon staff and all individuals involved in the completion of the MMP to clearly establish the responsibility and authority of the participants. An effective reporting system will be established prior to any monitoring activities. All parties involved will have a clear understanding of the mitigation measures as adopted, and the mitigation measures must be distributed to the participants of the monitoring effort. Those that will have a complete list of all the mitigation measures adopted by the city would include the City of Vernon, the applicant and the construction crew supervisor. Compliance report forms will be prepared with each mitigation measure written out on the top of the form. All persons responsible for monitoring measures shall complete the report and file it with the City following each monitoring activity. The conclusions Of these forms for each monitoring effort will be compiled into a comprehensive Monitoring Report by the appropriate city staff. The Monitoring Report will describe the major accomplishments of the monitoring program, summarize the problems 2 , . encountered in achieving the goals of the program, evaluate solutions developed to overcome problems, and provide a list of recommendations for future monitoring efforts. On-qoinq Monitorinq The requirements for on-going monitoring will be specified in the permit conditions of the proj ect or in the back-up reports required as a result of those permit conditions. The City of Vernon will be responsible for ensuring that their permit conditions for the freight terminal's operations are being implemented. Actual monitoring activities may be carried out by City-staffed field inspections, other agency-staffed inspections, or by specialists hired by the City or the project applicant to carry out specif ic programs. In. this case, the City or other permitting agency will be responsible for reviewing the monitoring reports as they are submitted by the project applicant or monitors. Non-Compliance Procedures There are generally three separate categories of non- compliance associated with the adopted conditions of approval: Non-compliance requiring an immediate halt to a specific task or piece of equipment. Non-compliance requiring immediate corrective action, with no work or task delay. Non-compliance that does not warrant immediate corrective action and results in no work or task delay. In all three cases, the City will notify the applicant's contractors. If non-compliance continues, the responsibility for enforcement is with the City. Some methods commonly used by other lead agencies include: "stop work" orders, fines and penal ties (civil), permit revocations, citations, and injunctions. It is essential that all parties involved in the MMP understand the authority and responsibility of the on-site monitors.

FREIGHT TERMINAL AT 3535 WASHINGTON BOULEVARD (09/27/94) 1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION East Carbon Development Corporation Environmental, L.C. (ECDC) is proposing to operate a freight terminal at 3535 Washington Boulevard. The site will accommodate the transfer of soils containing non-hazardous levels of hydrocarbons from trucks to trains for shipment out of state. ECDC is proposing to receive soils containing small amounts of hydrocarbons at the Washington Boulevard site. The soil will be transferred from various construction project sites via truck. Soils will be tested prior to shipment to ensure that they are classified as non-hazardous in accordance with Federal and State laws. Only soils which do not exceed 50 ppm VOC will be accepted at the site. It is estimated that the maximum amount of soil to be transferred to the site will be 20,000 tons a week. This equates to an average of 129 truckloads a day. The operation will be conducted 7 days a week 24 hours a day. 70% of the loaded trucks will travel to the site during evening and early morning hours. Trucks will travel onto the 2 acre site and dump the soil onto a work pad. Then travel to a wash station where their wheels and exterior surfaces will be rinsed of any dirt before exiting the site. The work pad will be provided with a berm to contain the soils within a defined area. The pad will be completely 1 ~4- .. underlain with a lining system. The system will consist of from top down: a permeable operationslleachate collection layer; a low permeability barrier layer consisting of clay andlor polyethylene Geomembrane; and a leak detection system. The soils will be bulldozed to a surge area on the impervious work pad. Then loaded into Union Pacific Railroad gondola rail cars using a front end loader. A water spray will be used during truck unloading and rail car loading via a water truck to maintain adequate soil moisture levels to prevent dusting. ECDC owns and operates a fully permitted, rail served landfill facility in Utah that will utilize the soils. The soils will be transported by rail to the ECDC landfill facility for use as alternative daily cover and liner cover. All railroad cars will either be covered or sealed prior to exiting the Vernon site. It is anticipated that the facility will employ 5 to 10 full time employees. Operators will be appropriately trained in emergency first aid procedures and will be thoroughly trained in operational and equipment procedures. Existing onsite office space and restroom facilities will be utilized. Adequate nighttime lighting with lighting shields will be provided as necessary. It should be noted that this type of non-hazardous bulk loading operation is a normal part of the current rail yard operations. This facility is only temporary, and is expected to operate for three to five years. 2 2. GENERAL PLAN The proposed use conforms to the zoning ordinance and the General Plan of the city. 3. SITE The proposed site is a small portion of the existing active union Pacific Railroad Yard, approximately 2 acres in size. Its most recent use was for the storage and trans loading of railroad maintenance supplies. with the exception of the small office, an LADWP transmission tower, and railroad tracks, the site is vacant. The property is relatively flat. On the west side of the property a high pressure gas main crosses under the site at an approximate depth of 10 feet. There are no known cultural, historic or scenic aspects to the site. 4. ADVERSE EFFECT The proposed site is surrounded by railroad yards and industrial and commercial uses. The closest residential unit to our knowledge is over a quarter of a mile away. The proposed use is compatible with its surroundings. No adverse noise, odor, smoke, light or glare, or risk of fire infection, or explosion is anticipated from the proposed use. ECDC has submitted a study which shows the levels of hydrocarbon compounds that the soils can contain which will result in negligible effects to the residential community. The soil imported to the site will at no time exceed these concentrations. 5. ACCESS The site has access to washington Boulevard. The street is of adequate capacity ,to handle the traffic generated by the facility. There is an existing traffic signal at the site entrance driveway. 3 6. TRUCK MOVEMENTS ECDC anticipates that an average of 129 trucks per day will travel to the site. In general traffic will travel from the site east on Washington Boulevard to the 710 freeway or west from the site on Washington Boulevard to either Santa Fe Avenue or Alameda Street, then north to the 10 freeway. Vehicles entering the site will travel the same streets in the opposite dire~tion. 70% of the truck traffic will occur between the hours of 7:00 pm and 5:00 am. Only a few trucks will travel to the site during the time that coincides with the peak hours of our City streets. The streets to be utilized appear to have sufficient capacity to handle the traffic. 7. STATE OR FEDERAL CONDITIONS There are no conditions imposed by State or Federal law. 8.
