MTlull cc,,LLEERK �s oFFi�E STAFF REPORT C11yy NBC WORKS, WATER & DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT DATE: November 3, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council tu% FROM: Samuel Kevin Wilson, Director of Public Works, Water and Development Services Department Originator: Sergio Canales, Assistant Planner RE: Approval of a Conditional Use Permit for rPlanet Earth Los Angeles, LLC ("rPlanet Earth"— a proposed indoor plastic recycling facility at 3200 Fruitland Avenue, and adoption of Mitigated Negative Declaration pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act Recommendation A. Adopt a resolution approving a conditional use permit to allow rPlanet Earth Los Angeles LLC to construct and operate a recycling facility, subject to the conditions of approval for the property located at 3200 Fruitland Avenue; and B. Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration finding that the project will not have a significant impact on the environment, or to the extent potentially significant effects exist, revisions in the project plans or proposals made by, or agreed to by rPlanet Earth before the proposed mitigated negative declaration and initial study are released for public review would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur, and there is no substantial evidence, in light of the whole record before the City, that the project as revised may have a significant effect on the environment within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Backsround rPlanet Earth has submitted an application for a conditional use permit ("CUP") to construct and operate a recycling and packaging manufacturing facility located at 3200 Fruitland Avenue. Pechiney Cast Plate, Inc., a manufacturer (processed scrap aluminum and manufactured aluminum plates), previously occupied the site. The proposed use will be recycling and processing of scrap plastic bottles into new packaging primarily for consumer products. The Project is proposed to operate 24 hours 7 days per week with two 12 hour shifts per day. Page 1 of 8 The property is designated in the General Plan and under the Zoning Ordinance as (I) Industrial, which allows the proposed use subject to the approval of a CUP. Proiect rPlanet Earth will process post -consumer PET and use the resulting "bottle grade" material that meets or exceeds the FDA's strict requirements for direct food contact applications to manufacture packaging for food and beverage products. The process will consist of incoming baled postconsumer PET being delivered to the facility via truck. The bales will then be broken into single bottles that will undergo a series of scans by high tech optical sorters supplemented by human sortation. The resulting clear plastic PET bottles will be grinded into a flake and undergo a series of dry and then wet wash steps prior to being heated to about 200 degrees Celsius and residing in the vacuum decontamination reactors where it is purified to the FDA's requirements for direct food contact (the plant will have the ability to purify the rPET flake to the Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co specs, that are considered to be the most stringent in the industry and exceed those of the FDA). The resulting "bottle grade" flake will then be used to manufacture extruded sheet, thermoformed containers (drinking cups, deli round containers, salad containers, etc.) and preforms (the first part produced in the 2 step process to manufacture PET beverage containers). The finished product will then be moved to the warehouse area within the facility prior to being shipped to their customers located in the LA area. The outgoing finished goods will primarily be shipped via trucks (53 footers). Scrap materials that result from the sortation process will be collected by type (for example baling wire and polypropylene caps) and sold to reclaimers that specialize in recycling and reusing these materials. This will minimize rPlanet Earth's amount of byproducts from the process that goes to the landfill. The facility will run 24/7 with two 12 shifts per day. Factory floor workers will work 3 days per week for 2 weeks out of the month and 4 days per week for the other 2 weeks during the month. According to Rplanet Earth, many of their workers prefer this schedule because it provides many more days off per month and it will limit auto traffic to just 2 shifts per day versus having three 8 hour shifts per day. Proiect Site The project site is for a 302,300 square foot industrial building and an approximately 35,000 square foot exterior canopy in the City of Vernon. The site is currently vacant and unpaved with no defined drainage pattern. A scrap aluminum and manufacturer of aluminum plates previously occupied the site but was demolished several years ago. The Project site will be supported by a three hundred forty (340) stall surface parking lot. The Project site is expected to generate approximately sixty five (65) truck trips per day (24 hours, 7 days a week) and approximately one hundred fifty one (151) vehicle trips per day, which includes employee trips to and from the workplace, visitor trips, and miscellaneous employee trips throughout the day. One vehicle trip is comprised of one movement in and one movement out of the facility. Peak traffic hours for the streets in the vicinity occur in the early morning and late afternoon. The traffic operations Page 2 of 8 in the area will not be significantly adversely affected by traffic volumes generated by the proposed project. Motorists using the surrounding street system will not experience major changes in traffic operations due the traffic generated by the proposed development. Since the new development will supply sufficient parking and loading stalls on -site and will create no impact, no overflow parking onto adjacent side streets will occur. Significant impacts are not expected. The site was previously utilized for an industrial operation. The proposed use will have a smaller workforce then the previous tenant, therefore it is anticipated that the proposed use will have less of an impact on the transportation system as the previous occupant. Additionally, based on the ITE traffic manual, the traffic generated by the recycling operation is similar to other distribution and industrial uses that are permitted by right at the site. Three driveways will provide access to site, one along Fruitland Avenue, and two along Boyle Avenue. Fruitland Avenue and Boyle Avenue are of adequate size and pavement type to handle the traffic generated from the proposed operation. Trucks and automobiles accessing the site will share the both driveways. The streets and highways surrounding the project site are adequate in size and are improved as necessary to carry the traffic expected by this proposed operation. Traffic operations in the area will not be adversely effected by the moderate increase in traffic volumes generated by the proposed project. Zoning and General Plan Consistency The proposed use is consistent with the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan. The site is located in the I -Zone, Industrial. rPlanet Earth is considered a "recycling facility" as defined in Zoning Code Section 26.2.11 because it takes the plastic bottles that might otherwise be waste material, and converts much of it into new raw materials for use in the marketplace: "26.2.11. Recycling facility shall mean a facility that recycles used or waste materials in order to convert and redistribute them as raw materials, or in order to convert them and manufacture a product made wholly or partly from recycled materials, including a biodiesel facility. For these purposes, recycling shall mean a process involving reconstituting materials that would otherwise become waste and returning them to the economic mainstream in the form of raw materials for new reuses or reconstituted products which meet the quality standards necessary to be used in the marketplace. Recycling facility does not include recycling activities undertaken as an ancillary use to a permitted use." Under the Vernon municipal code, a "recycling facility" is an allowed use in the I -Zone with approval of a CUP. CEQA Analysis The proposed use is surrounded by properties with industrial uses that are compatible. No adverse impacts from traffic, parking, noise, odor, dust, or explosion are expected to occur adjacent to abutting properties. An initial study has been conducted for the project in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). As shown by the initial study, no potentially significant impacts are expected to result from the project, or to the extent potentially significant effects exist, revisions in the project plans or proposals as set forth in the initial study and as made by, or agreed to by rPlanet Earth before the proposed mitigated negative declaration and Page 3 of 8 initial study are released for public review would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur, and there is no substantial evidence, in light of the whole record before the City, that the project as revised may have a significant effect on the environment. The Director of Public Works, Water & Development Services has recommended that a Notice of Intent be provided and issued pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15072 and a Mitigated Negative Declaration be adopted in compliance with CEQA Guidelines section 15070 et seq. State or Federal Conditions All Federal, State, and local regulatory permits shall be obtained as required for the operation.

'.I 8 SDI �_ (Signature) Date 23. The property has undergone substantial environmental remediation over a multi -year period that included the replacement of a substantial amount of soil. We do not anticipate that digging, trenching or excavating for equipment/silo foundations will create any issues based upon our understanding of the parcel's environmental use restrictions or protocols. Some soil may need to be exported depending on the volume of excavated soil. 25. We anticipate using an average of approximately 120,000 gallons of water per day once the facility is completely built out This will also require the discharge of 120,000 gallons per day into the LA County Sanitation District's wastewater treatment system. As the volume of material processed in our plant increases over time, we will need to acquire additional wastewater discharge credits to allow us to discharge our increased daily water use. 26. We anticipate using a significant amount of electricity in our operation Our base case electrical use projection is a demand load of 15 to as high as 19 MW. Despite being a large consumer of electricity, our process reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by over 70%, fossil fuel use by over 80% and water use by 90% versus the production of virgin PET. In summary, our process is extremely environmentally friendly. Environmental Setting: 28. On an attached sheet, describe the project site as it exists before the project, including information on topography, soil stability, plants and animals, and any cultural, historic or scenic aspects. Describe any existing structures on the site, and the use of the structures. Attach photographs of the site. Snapshots or Polaroid photos will be acceptable. Project is a remediated site. Site is relatively flat with no vegetation and no historical impact, There are no existing structures 29.On an attached sheet, describe the surrounding properties, including information on plants and animals and any cultural, historical or scenic aspects. Indicate the type of land use (residential, commercial, etc.), and scale of development (height, frontage, set -back, rear yard, etc.). Attach photographs of the vicinity. Snapshots or Polaroid photos will be acceptable. Surrounding properties are industrial and of similar land characteristics Operations Report The Company will process post -consumer PET and use the resulting "bottle grade" material that meets or exceeds the FDA's strict requirements for direct food contact applications to manufacture packaging for food and beverage products. The process will consist of incoming baled postconsumer PET being delivered to our facility via truck. The bales will be broken into single bottles that will undergo a series of scans by high tech optical sorters supplemented by human sortation. The resulting clear plastic PET bottles will be ground into a flake and undergo a series of dry and then wet wash steps prior to being heated to about 200 degrees Celsius and residing in our vacuum decontamination reactors where it is purified to the FDA's requirements for direct food contact (our plant will have the ability to purify the rPET flake to the Coca-Cola and PepsiCo specs, that are considered to be the most stringent in the industry and exceed those of the FDA). The resulting "bottle grade" flake will then be used to manufacture extruded sheet, thermoformed containers (drinking cups, deli round containers, salad containers, etc) and preforms (the first part produced in the 2 step process to manufacture PET beverage containers). The finished products will then be moved to our warehouse area within the facility prior to being shipped to our customers — many of which will be located in the LA area. Outgoing finished goods will primarily be shipped via 53' trucks. The corner location of the property is very attractive because it will give us the option of move traffic in and out of the facility on both Boyle and Fruitland Avenues. Many of the scrap materials that come about from the sortation process can be collected by type (for example baling wire and polypropylene caps) and sold to reclaimers that specialize in recycling and reusing these materials. In this way we minimize the amount of byproducts from our process that go to landfill. Our facility will run 24/7 with two 12 shifts per day. Factory floor workers will work 3 days per week for 2 weeks out of the month and 4 days per week for the other 2 weeks during the month. Many workers prefer this schedule because it provides many more days off per month and it will limit auto traffic to just 2 shifts per day vs having three 8 hour shifts per day. c Vl n) C1 O al O. 0 7 TI N sl 0 O C0 C 0 0 r+ 1" r C1 3 (D 3 M 0 m Ck. 2 A A W N t+ S fD O a) n CL bi n � m m 3 D ° 3 3 = y 3 a D a a o Z a N � x x D � �wp T Z m D rt N N C ,Oy M 'O (Np O.

MIG I Hogle-Ireland, Inc. 1500 Iowa Avenue, Suite 110 Riverside, California 92507 Hogle-Ireland September 2015 R Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis Introduction The following summarizes the modeling results of air quality and greenhouse gas emissions for the r Planet Earth project located at 3200 Fruitland Avenue in the City of Vernon, Los Angeles County. This analysis has been prepared utilizing the California Emissions Estimator Model (CaIEEMod) version 2013.2.2 software. This analysis has been conducted using guidance provided in the CEQA Air Quality Handbook and Localized Significance Threshold documentation prepared by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) and the CEQA and Climate Change white paper prepared by the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA). Project Description The project is the construction and operation of a plastics recycling and manufacturing facility. The project includes construction of an industrial building and outdoor storage area on 14.53 acres. The r Planet Earth plastics manufacturing use will occupy a 289,000-square-foot building on the west side of the project site. An outdoor storage area and underground detention basin will be constructed on the east side of the project site. The project is anticipated to be constructed within 18 months starting in 2016. The r Planet Earth manufacturing facility will operate with two twelve-hour shifts with approximately 75 employees per shift. On -site operations will include automated bottle sorting, wash lines, decontamination modules, injection molding, sheet extrusion, thermoforming, and warehousing. Based on the project traffic report, the project will generate approximately 151 daily passenger vehicle trips, 21 "box" truck trips, and 39 heavy-duty truck trips. Passenger vehicle trips will reduce to 121 trips on Saturday and 117 trips on Sunday. No truck trips will be generated on Sundays and "box" truck trips will reduce to 17 trips. It is estimated that 120,000 gallons of water will be used per day. It is estimated that the project will require up to 19 megawatts (MM of electricity per year. The project will also include bag houses and cyclones for particulate matter filtering, hot water heaters and gas dryers, and high pressure vessels. These facilities will require permits to construct and operate from SCAQMD. Methodology The proposed project will result in construction -related and operational emissions of criteria pollutants. A project may have a significant impact if project -related emissions would exceed federal, state, or regional standards or thresholds, or if project -related emissions would substantially contribute to existing or project air quality violations. Long-term criteria air pollutant emissions will result from the operation of the training facility. Long-term emissions are categorized as area source emissions, energy demand emissions, and operational emissions. Emissions sources are discussed in detail herein. The project will result in continuous greenhouse gas emissions from mobile, area, and operational sources. Mobile sources include vehicle trips to and from the project site and will result primarily in emissions of CO2 with minor emissions of CHa and N2O. Natural gas will be required so GHG emissions from natural gas usage will occur. Electricity usage in the building and indirect usage of electricity for water and wastewater conveyance will result primarily in emissions of carbon dioxide. These sources combine to define the long-term greenhouse gas emissions inventory at build -out and operation of the project. To model this inventory, CaIEEMod was used. The methodology utilized for each emissions source is based on the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) Quantifying Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Measures handbook. Construction The project will require standard construction activities. Demolition will be required for an existing parking lot that is located on the eastern portion of the project site. It was estimated that approximately 571 tons of asphalt will be demolished. Default CaIEEMod construction inputs were used for all construction emission modeling. r Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis Vehicle Trips and Emissions The trips identified in the project traffic report were converted into light -duty automobile (LDA) trips for passenger vehicles, medium -heavy duty (MHD) truck trips for "box" trucks, and heavy -heavy duty trips HHD) for tractor -trailer trucks. Based on the fleet mix identified in the traffic report, approximately 72 percent of trips will be LDA trips associated with on -site employees (commercial -work trips), nine percent will be exporting of manufactured goods to customers (commercial -customer) trips, and the remainder will be raw material and other deliveries (commercial -non - work trips). It is assumed that 100 percent of trips are primary trips. Default CalEEMod trips were used for the smaller building. Area Sources No hearths or other forms of heating are proposed as part of the project. No landscaping will be installed and default annual reapplication of coatings was used. The CalEEMod default for consumer product ROG emissions was utilized. Energy Use Energy demand was input as non -Title 24 to equal approximately 19 MW for the proposed r Planet Earth building. Default natural gas demand values were used for the r Planet Earth building. Default lighting energy intensity for the parking lot was used. CaIEEMod default inputs for electricity and natural gas demand were used for the smaller building. Water and Wastewater Use No outdoor water will be required to serve the project because there will be no landscaping (except for the proposed detention basin). The project applicant estimates that 120,000 gallons water will be used per day; therefore 4,380,000 gallons of annual water demand was input. Default demand values for the smaller building were used. Solid Waste Generation Default solid waste generation values were used. Thresholds of Significance Air Quality Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines indicates that a project could result in potentially significant impacts related to air quality if it would: A. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan. B. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation. C. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non -attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors). D. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations. E. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines indicates that a project could result in potentially significant impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change if it would: A. Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment. r Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis B. Conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purposes of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases. A numerical threshold for determining the significance of greenhouse gas emissions in the South Coast Air Basin (Basin) has not officially been adopted by the SCAQMD. As an interim threshold based on guidance provided in the CAPCOA CEQA and Climate Change white paper, a non -zero threshold based on Approach 2 of the handbook will be used.i Threshold 2.5 (Unit -Based Thresholds Based on Market Capture) establishes a numerical threshold based on capture of approximately 90 percent of emissions from future development. The latest threshold developed by SCAQMD using this method is 10,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E) per year for residential and commercial projects.ii This threshold is based on the review of 711 CEQA projects. Emissions Inventory Air Quality Impacts A and C (Planning and Cumulative Impacts) Conflicts and obstructions that hinder implementation of the South Coast Air Basin 2012 Air Quality Management Plan can delay efforts to meet attainment deadlines for criteria pollutants and maintaining existing compliance with applicable air quality standards. Pursuant to the methodology provided in Chapter 12 of the 1993 SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook, consistency with the South Coast Air Basin 2012 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) is affirmed when a project (1) does not increase the frequency or severity of an air quality standards violation or cause a new violation and (2) is consistent with the growth assumptions in the AQMP.hi Consistency review is presented below: 1. The project would result in short-term construction and long-term pollutant emissions that are less than the CEQA significance emissions thresholds established by the SCAQMD, as demonstrated in this report; therefore, the project could not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of any air quality standards violation and will not cause a new air quality standard violation. 2. The CEQA Air Quality Handbook indicates that consistency with AQMP growth assumptions must be analyzed for new or amended General Plan elements, Specific Plans, and significant projects. Significant projects include airports, electrical generating facilities, petroleum and gas refineries, designation of oil drilling districts, water ports, solid waste disposal sites, and off -shore drilling facilities; therefore, the proposed project is not defined as significant. This project does not include a General Plan Amendment and therefore does not required consistency analysis with the AQMP. Based on the consistency analysis presented above, the proposed project will not conflict with the AQMP. Furthermore, because the project is consistent with the AQMP, the project will not result in any cumulative impacts pursuant to the projection method of analysis of cumulative impacts identified in CEQA. Air Quality Impact B (Criteria Pollutants) Regional Significance Based on the results of the model, maximum daily emissions from the construction of the proposed project will not result in excessive criteria pollutant emissions as summarized in Table 1 (Maximum Daily Construction Emissions (Ibs/day)). Based on the results of the model, maximum daily emissions from the construction of the project will result in excessive emissions of volatile organic chemicals (identified as reactive organic gases) associated with interior and exterior coating activities. To mitigate for excessive VOC emissions from coating activities, the project proponent will be required to use a combination of low-VOC coatings and/or scheduling adjustments to ensure that the daily threshold is not exceeded. For example, the model outputs attached to this report includes use of a maximum 40 grams per liter (g/1) VOC content for interior and exterior coatings. Use of low-VOC coatings during construction activities will reduce VOC emissions to 70 Ibs/day, less than the threshold established by SCAQMD. The model was r Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis also run with use of 25 g/I VOC content for interior coatings and 50 g/I VOC content for exterior coatings, resulting in 51 lbs/day VOC emissions. The project proponent also has the option of extending the coating schedule by limiting the daily coating activities. For example, extending the coating schedule to 109 days by limiting interior and/or exterior coating activities to 6,424 square feet per day without use of low-VOC paints would reduce emissions to below the SCAQMD threshold. The requirement for use of low-VOC coatings and/or scheduling options has been included as Mitigation Measure AQ-1.

Although the region may be in attainment for a particular criteria pollutant, localized emissions from construction activities coupled with ambient pollutant levels can cause localized increases in criteria pollutant that exceed national and/or State air quality standards. Construction -related criteria pollutant emissions and potentially significant localized impacts were evaluated pursuant to the SCAQMD Final Localized Significance Thresholds Methodology. This methodology provides screening tables for one through five acre project scenarios, depending on the amount of site disturbance during a day using the Fact Sheet for equipment usage in CalEEMod.N Daily oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (PM,o and PM2.5) emissions will occur during construction of the project, grading of the project site, and paving of facility parking lots and drive aisles. Table 3 (Localized Significance Threshold Analysis) summarize on- and off - site emissions as compared to the local thresholds established for Source Receptor Area (SRA)1 (Central Los Angeles). Based on the use of one grader, one dozer, two scrapers, and two tractors during grading activities, a 3- acre threshold will be used (using linear regression). A 25 meter receptor distance was used to reflect the proximity of nearby business. Note that particulate matter emissions from grading activities account for daily watering required by SCAQMD Rule 403 (three times per day for a 55 percent reduction in fugitive dust). Emissions from construction activities will not exceed any localized threshold. r Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis Table 3 Localized Significance Threshold Analysis Ibsida Phase CO NOx PM+o pis Demolition 35 46 3 2 Grading 49 75 7 5 Building Construction 19 28 2 2 Paving 15 20 1 1 Architectural Coating 2 2 <1 <1 Threshold 1,293 121 10 li Potentially Substantial? No No No No Operation -related LSTs become of concern when there are substantial on -site stationary sources that could impact surrounding receptors. As a manufacturing use, the project has the potential to generate particulate matter emissions and VOC emissions associated with plastics recycling and molding. All equipment and operations will be conducted in accordance with AQMD permit requirements. In particular, bag houses and cyclones will be used to filter particulate matter from emission streams prior to venting into the atmosphere. The proposed project will also not emit VOCs based on the proposed operations plan as a "green" facility. The proposed project design coupled with regulatory requirements will ensure that operation -related LSTs will not be exceeded. Air Quality Impact D (Sensitive Receptors) Sensitive receptors are those segments of the population that are most susceptible to poor air quality such as children, the elderly, the sick, and athletes who perform outdoors. Land uses associated with sensitive receptors include residences, schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, outdoor athletic facilities, long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, and retirement homes. The City of Vernon is almost exclusively industrial in character and there are no sensitive receptors in proximity to the project. Furthermore, the proposed project will not generate substantial toxic pollutant emissions. All equipment will be installed and operating in accordance with SCAQMD permitting requirements. Air Quality Impact E (Odors) According to the CEQA Air Quality Handbook, land uses associated with odor complaints include agricultural operations, wastewater treatment plants, landfills, and certain industrial operations (such as manufacturing uses that produce chemicals, paper, etc.). Odors are typically associated with industrial projects involving the use of chemicals, solvents, petroleum products, and other strong -smelling elements used in manufacturing processes, as well as sewage treatment facilities and landfills. Plastics manufacturing generate odors through the recycling and manufacturing process; however, these operations will be entirely enclosed within the proposed r Planet Earth building. Industrial steam and heat exhaust will vent from the roof of the facility into the atmosphere but will not include odors. Similarly, the smaller building would enclose all operations within the proposed building pursuant to City conditions of approval. Finally, there are no sensitive receptors in vicinity of the project and the City is a generally industrialized area where manufacturing uses and associated odors are common. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Impact A The long-term GHG emissions for the proposed project are summarized in Table 4 (Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory). Table 4 represents the project's business as usual (BAU) emissions and does not include any form of mitigation or GHG reducing project features. Greenhouse gas emissions will not exceed the 10,000 MTCO2E threshold. r Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis Table 4 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory Source GHG Emissions T/YR CO2 CH4 N20 TOTAL* Construction Total 1,241 <1 0 12,44 30-Year Amortization 41 <1 0 42 Operational Area <1 <1 0 <1 Energy 365 <1 <1 367 Mobile 621 <1 0 621 Waste 72 4 0 160 Water 18 <1 <1 22 Total Operational 1,075 4 <1 1,170 TOTAL 1,116 4 <1 1,212 Proposed SCAQMD Screening Threshold 10,000 Exceeds Screening Threshold?

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Impact 8 As a project -level manufacturing facility, the project includes no component that could interfere with the implementation of any plan, policy, or standard at the state, regional, or local level to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The project will not result in appreciable greenhouse gas emissions that could contribute considerably to global climate change and will incorporate green building techniques, water conservation requirements, and other requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as required by state law. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measures are required to ensure that project -related emissions do not exceed established thresholds. AQ1 Prior to issuance of building permits, the project proponent shall submit, to the satisfaction of the Planning Department, a Coating Restriction Plan (CRP), consistent with South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) guidelines and a letter agreeing to include in any construction contracts and/or subcontracts a requirement that the contractors adhere to the CRP. The CRP measures shall be implemented to the satisfaction of City Building Director. These may include, but is not limited to, the following: That volatile organic compounds (VOC) of proposed architectural coatings not exceed 25 g/I for interior applications. That volatile organic compounds (VOC) of proposed architectural coatings not exceed 50 g/I for exterior applications. Limiting daily coating applications. This measure shall conform to the performance standard that emissions of volatile organic compounds from application of interior or exterior coatings shall not exceed the daily emissions thresholds established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The CRP shall specify use of High -Volume, Low Pressure (HVLP) spray guns for application of coatings. 1.1 r Planet Earth Air Quality and Climate Change Analysis Conclusion The proposed project is consistent with the South Coast Air Basin's Air Quality Management Plan and will therefore not conflict with or obstruct implementation of any air quality plan and subsequently will not result in cumulative air quality impacts. SCAQMD thresholds for daily criteria pollutant emissions will not be exceeded by the project with mitigation incorporated. The project will not result in emissions of any toxic air contaminant or odors. Greenhouse gas emissions from the proposed project will not exceed the maximum 10,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E) per year threshold established by SCAQMD. Impacts will be less than significant. References California Air Pollution Control Officers Association. CEQA and Climate Change. January 2008 South Coast Air Quality Management District.

The process will consist of incoming baled postconsumer PET being delivered to the facility via truck. The bales will then be broken into single bottles that will undergo a series of scans by high tech optical sorters supplemented by human sortation. The resulting clear plastic PET bottles will be grinded into a flake and undergo a series of dry and then wet wash steps prior to being heated to about 200 degrees Celsius and residing in the vacuum decontamination reactors where it is purified to the FDA's requirements for direct food contact (the plant will have the ability to purify the rPET flake to the Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co specs, that are considered to be the most stringent in the industry and exceed those of the FDA). The resulting "bottle grade" flake will then be used to manufacture extruded sheet, thermoformed containers (drinking cups, deli round containers, salad containers, etc.) and preforms (the first part produced in the 2 step process to manufacture PET beverage containers). The fmished product will then be moved to the warehouse area within the facility prior to being shipped to their customers located in the LA area. The facility will run 24/7 with two 12 shifts per day. The project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it requires discretionary approval.

General Plan Designation: Industrial 7. Zoning: I -Zone, Industrial 8. Project Description: rPlanet Earth Los Angeles, LLC ("rPlanet Earth") has submitted an application for a conditional use permit to operate a recycling tacility located at 3200 Fruitland Avenue in the City of Vernon. They are proposing to construct and operate a 302,300 square foot industrial building and a 35,000 square foot exterior canopy. The site is currently vacant and unpaved with no defined drainage pattern. The proposed site shall be paved with an impermeable surface that meets City of Vernon standards. Pechiney Cast Plate, Inc. a manufacturing facility previously occupied the site. The proposed use will consist of processing recycled material, storage, shredding and extruding of plastics, and sorting of post-industrial plastic scraps and will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and the City of Vernon General Plan. The project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it requires discretionary approval. 9. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting: The surrounding land use is mix of industrial, distribution, residential, utility and municipal uses. The City of Vernon is primarily made up of industrial and distribution type facilities. The property to be developed is bordered by Fruitland Avenue on the north and Boyle Avenue to the west. 10.

The nrniect I ratinn iS in an industrial area surrounriari by inriUictriai anri residential facilities in a topography that is very flat and does not provide any scenic vista open to the public. Therefore, the proposed project will create no impact. The project site is currently vacant and unpaved. All buildings on the site have been demolished to grade level. Pechiney Cast Plate, Inc. a manufacturing facility previously occupied the site. The project site is located in an industrial area and lighting of facilities is common. Construction of the site would likely create a minor increase in the amount of nighttime lighting over the existing land use. Therefore, it would not adversely affect views in the area. Given the existing lighting surrounding the project area, no impacts would occur with regard to light and glare. As previously discussed, the project site is located in an existing industrial area and will be developed with industrial and warehouse uses in accordance with the City's Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, the project site will not degrade visual character or quality as it will be similar to the previous use. Therefore, the project site will have no impact on scenic resources, degrade the existing visual character, or create new source of substantial light or glare are anticipated. 2. AGRICULTURE AND FOREST RESOURCES. In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. In determining whether impacts to forest resources, including timberland are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to information complied by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection regarding the state's inventory of forest land, including the Forest and Range Assessment Project and the Forest Legacy Assessment project; and forest carbon measurement methodology provided in Forest Protocols adopted by the California Air Resources Board. -- Would the project.

Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, X to non-agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non -forest use? Discussion 2.) a. through e. There is no existing or proposed zoning for forest land or issues relating to conversion of forest land to non -forest use. The site is zoned I, "Industrial', per the City of Vernon Zoning Code. No agricultural uses are permitted under the current zoning designation. In addition, the project site is not enrolled under a Williamson Act contract. Therefore, the project would not conflict with existing agricultural resources, zoning or a William Act contract. No impacts would occur, and no mitigation measures would be necessary. 3. AIR QUALITY. Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Im act a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air —impact quality Ian? X b. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? X C. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non -attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality X standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? X e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people? X Discussion 3.) a. and c. (Planning and Cumulative Impacts). Conflicts and obstructions that hinder implementation of the South Coast Air Basin 2012 Air Quality Management Plan can delay efforts to meet attainment deadlines for criteria pollutants and maintaining existing compliance with applicable air quality standards. Pursuant to the methodology provided in Chapter 12 of the 1993 SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook, consistency with the South Coast Air Basin 2012 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) is affirmed when a project (1) does not increase the frequency or severity of an air quality standards violation or cause a new violation and (2) is consistent with the growth assumptions in the AQMP.iii Consistency review is presented below: 1. The project would result in short-term construction and long-term pollutant emissions that are less than the CEQA significance emissions thresholds established by the SCAQMD, as demonstrated in this report; therefore, the project could not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of any air quality standards violation and will not cause a new air quality standard violation. 2. The CEQA Air Quality Handbook indicates that consistency with AQMP growth assumptions must be analyzed for new or amended General Plan elements, Specific Plans, and significant projects. Significant projects include airports, electrical generating facilities, petroleum and gas refineries, designation of oil drilling districts, water ports, solid waste disposal sites, and off -shore drilling facilities; therefore, the proposed project is not defined as significant. This project does not include a General Plan Amendment and therefore does not required consistency analysis with the AQMP. rPlanet Earth - Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist Based on the consistency analysis presented above, the proposed project will not conflict with the AQMP. Furthermore, because the project is consistent with the AQMP, the project will not result in any cumulative impacts pursuant to the projection method of analysis of cumulative impacts identified in CEQA. b. (Criteria Pollutants) Regional Significance Based on the results of the model, maximum daily emissions from the construction of the proposed project will not result in excessive criteria pollutant emissions as summarized in Table 1 (Maximum Daily Construction Emissions (Ibs. /day)). Based on the results of the model, maximum daily emissions from the construction of the project will result in excessive emissions of volatile organic chemicals (identified as reactive organic gases) associated with interior and exterior coating activities. To mitigate for excessive VOC emissions from coating activities, the project proponent will be required to use a combination of low-VOC coatings and/or scheduling adjustments to ensure that the daily threshold is not exceeded. For example, the model outputs attached to this report includes use of a maximum 40 grams per liter (g/1) VOC content for interior and exterior coatings. Use of low-VOC coatings during construction activities will reduce VOC emissions to 70 Ibs/day, less than the threshold established by SCAQMD. The model was also run with use of 25 g/l VOC content for intarinr nnatinnc anri -rn n/I V()C: content for exterior rnatings, resulting in 51 Ibs/clay VOC emissions, The project proponent also has the option of extending the coating schedule by limiting the daily coating activities. For example, extending the coating schedule to 109 days by limiting interior and/or exterior coating activities to 6,424 square feet per day without use of low-VOC paints would reduce emissions to below the SCAQMD threshold. The requirement for use of low-VOC coatings and/or scheduling options has been included as Mitigation Measure AQ-1. Table 1 Maximum Dailv Construction Emissions (Ibs. /day) #• �, idAa ..sxr ..

Although the region may be in attainment for a particular criteria pollutant, localized emissions from construction activities coupled with ambient pollutant levels can cause localized increases in criteria pollutant that exceed national and/or State air quality standards. Construction -related criteria pollutant emissions and potentially significant localized impacts were evaluated pursuant to the SCAQMD Final Localized Significance Thresholds Methodology. This methodology provides screening tables for rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist one through five acre project scenarios, depending on the amount of site disturbance during a day using the Fact Sheet for equipment usage in CalEEMod.iv Daily oxides of nitrogen (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) emissions will occur during construction of the project, grading of the project site, and paving of facility parking lots and drive aisles. Table 3 (Localized Significance Threshold Analysis) summarize on- and off- site emissions as compared to the local thresholds established for Source Receptor Area (SRA) 1 (Central Los Angeles). Based on the use of one grader, one dozer, two scrapers, and two tractors during grading activities, a 3- acre threshold will be used (using linear regression). A 25 meter receptor distance was used to reflect the proximity of nearby business. Note that particulate matter emissions from grading activities account for daily watering required by SCAQMD Rule 403 (three times per day for a 55 percent reduction in fugitive dust). Emissions from construction activities will not exceed any localized threshold Table 3 Localized Significance Threshold Analysis lbs. /da v Demolition 35 46 3 2 Grading 49 75 7 5 Building Construction 19 28 2 2 Paving 15 20 1 1 Architectural Coating 2 2 <1 <1 Threshold 1,293 121 10 6 Potentially Substantial? No No No No Operation -related LSTs become of concern when there are substantial on -site stationary sources that could impact surrounding receptors. As a manufacturing use, the project has the potential to generate particulate matter emissions and VOC emissions associated with plastics recycling and molding. All equipment and operations will be conducted in accordance with AQMD permit requirements. In particular, bag houses and cyclones will be used to filter particulate matter from emission streams prior to venting into the atmosphere. The proposed project will also not emit VOCs based on the proposed operations plan as a "green" facility. The proposed project design coupled with regulatory requirements will ensure that operation -related LSTs will not be exceeded. d. (Sensitive Receptors) Sensitive receptors are those segments of the population that are most susceptible to poor air quality such as children, the elderly, the sick, and athletes who perform outdoors. Land uses associated with sensitive receptors include residences, schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, outdoor athletic facilities, long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, and retirement homes. The City of Vernon is almost exclusively industrial in character and there are no sensitive receptors in proximity to the project. Furthermore, the proposed project will not generate substantial toxic pollutant emissions. All equipment will be installed and operating in accordance with SCAQMD permitting requirements. e. (Odors) According to the CEQA Air Quality Handbook, land uses associated with odor complaints include agricultural operations, wastewater treatment plants, landfills, and certain industrial operations (such as manufacturing uses that produce chemicals, paper, etc.). Odors are typically associated with industrial projects involving the use of chemicals, solvents, petroleum products, and other strong -smelling elements used in manufacturing processes, as well as sewage treatment facilities and landfills. Plastics manufacturing generate odors through the recycling and manufacturing process; however, these operations will be entirely enclosed within the proposed r Planet Earth building. Industrial steam and heat exhaust will vent from the roof of the facility into the atmosphere but will not include odors. Outdoor storage of baled plastic product that will be eventually be recycled will occur. This product will be stored under a canopy located at the northwest corner of the site. All product delivered to the site is required to be rinsed and clean prior to delivery. Therefore the product does not produce an odor. However, conditions of approval will required that the material be cleaned prior to delivery to the site and that it must meet South Coast Air Quality standards for odors. Finally, there are no sensitive receptors in vicinity of the project and the City is a generally industrialized area where manufacturing uses and associated odors are common. rPlanet Earth - Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 4.

Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native X resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites? e. Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or X ordinance? f. Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved X local, regional, or state habitat conservation Ian? Discussion 4.) a. through f. The project site is in a highly developed industrial area of the City of Vernon. No vegetation or natural habitat exists on the project site or in the vicinity. Given the highly industrial character of the project site and surrounding area, the potential for any special status species (i.e., endangered or threatened species) to occur is highly unlikely. No unique biological resources or habitat conservation areas exist within the City of Vernon. No species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are known to exist within the City of Vernon. Therefore, no significant impact associated with these issues will occur. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a X historical resource as defined in Section 15064.5? b. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an X archaeological resource pursuant to Section 15064.5? c. Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource X or site or unique geologic feature? d. Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of X formal cemeteries? rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Stuoy CEQA Environmental Checklist Discussion 5.) a. through d. There are no known cultural resources in the area. CEQA Guidelines define historical resources as any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record or manuscript determined to be historically significant or significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California. The project will not result in any action that will directly cause the elimination or alteration of any building that may have historic signficance. The project site itself does not meet any of the cultural resource qualifications for being a historical, archeological, or paleontological resource. As part of the demolition of the above and below grade structures and soil remediation activities that have occurred at the site deep excavation were performed throughout the site and no cultural artifacts were found. Therefore, no significant impact associated with these issues will occur. 6. GEOLOGY AND SOILS. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse X effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving: i. Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial X evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42. ii. Strong seismic ground shaking? X iii. Seismic -related ground failure, including liquefaction? X iv. Landslides? X b. Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? X C. Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and X potentially result in on- or off -site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? d. Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial risks to life X or property? e. Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers X are not available for the disposal of wastewater? Discussion 6.) a. (i. through iv.) Although there are no known earthquake faults in the City, however, many fault systems traverse Los Angeles County and the border region which have the potential to cause damage in the City in the event of an earthquake. While the City of Vernon would potentially be subject to seismic ground shaking due to earthquakes, the new development/construction shall be required to be in compliance with (Zone 4) seismicity requirements of the California Building Code (CBC). A secondary effect of ground shaking is soil liquefaction. Liquefaction is a process by which sediments below the water table temporarily lose strength and behave as a liquid rather than a solid. In the liquefied condition, soil may deform enough to cause damage to buildings and other structures. Seismic shaking is the most common cause of liquefaction. The General Plan Safety Element includes Figure S-2, Liquefaction Zone that illustrates the areas susceptible to liquefaction within the City. The Safety Element states that liquefaction is not considered a serious threat in Vernon. Because liquefaction is not considered a serious threat, combined with the City s standard practice of requiring engineering studies and conformance with the City Building Code and CBC seismic -related ground impacts (including liquefaction) are considered to be less than significant. Seismically -induced landslides tend to occur in areas with weak soil and rock on sloping terrain. Generally these areas are characterized by steep slopes composed of weak materials that may fail when shaking by an earthquake. The topography of the City of Vernon and adjoining area are relatively flat. In the absence of significant ground slopes, the potential for seismically -induced landslides to occur is considered negligible and no impacts would result. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist b. through e. The City of Vernon is highly urbanized and developed with limited open space. Construction and operation of the recycling center would not alter this condition. The City is relatively flat, with very little variation in topography. Implementation of the project would not result in substantial changes in topography or create erosion or unstable conditions. The potential for erosion and/or unstable conditions is less than significant. The local geologic unit within this deep trough that represents the deposits around Vernon is comprised of Quarternary aged unconsolidated floodplain deposits of silt, sand, gravel and minor amounts of clay soil underlined by Tertiary and continental deposits. Expansive soils and unstable geologic units are not expected in the area. If unstable or expansive soil is encountered during construction activities, then the contractor will be required to use specific engineering and construction methods to ensure it meets city standards As discussed above, impacts relative to seismically induced ground -shaking (including liquefaction) would be less than significant. The project area is not located in an area subject to on- or off -site landslides. Seismic ground -shaking impacts would be less than significant with conformance with current City Building Code and CBC standards, as well as standards engineering practices. No significant impact would result. The project does not require the development of either septic tanks or alternative wastewater systems. No related impacts would result. 7.

The long-term GHG emissions for the proposed project are summarized in Table 4 (Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory). Table 4 represents the project's business as usual (BAU) emissions and does not include any form of mitigation or GHG reducing project features. Greenhouse gas emissions will not exceed the 10,000 MTCO2E threshold.

As a project -level manufacturing facility, the project includes no component that could interfere with the implementation of any plan, policy, or standard at the state, regional, or local level to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The project will not result in appreciable greenhouse gas emissions that could contribute considerably to global climate change and will incorporate green building techniques, water conservation requirements, and other requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as required by state law. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measures are required to ensure that project -related emissions do not exceed established thresholds. A01 Prior to issuance of building permits, the project proponent shall submit, to the satisfaction of the Planning Department, a Coating Restriction Plan (CRP), consistent with South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) guidelines and a letter agreeing to include in any construction contracts and/or subcontracts a requirement that the contractors adhere to the CRP. The CRP measures shall be implemented to the satisfaction of City Building Director. These may include, but is not limited to, the following: That volatile organic compounds (VOC) of proposed architectural coatings not exceed 25 g/I for interior applications. That volatile organic compounds (VOC) of proposed architectural coatings not exceed 50 g/I for exterior applications. Limiting daily coating application. This measure shall conform to the performance standard that emissions of volatile organic compounds from application of interior or exterior coatings shall not exceed the daily emissions thresholds established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The CRP shall specify use of High -Volume, Low Pressure (HVLP) spray guns for application of coatings. Conclusion The proposed project is consistent with the South Coast Air Basin's Air Quality Management Plan and will therefore not conflict with or obstruct implementation of any air quality plan and subsequently will not result in cumulative air quality impacts. SCAQMD thresholds for daily criteria pollutant emissions will not be exceeded by the project with mitigation incorporated. The project will not result in emissions of any toxic air contaminant or odors. Greenhouse gas emissions from the proposed project will not exceed the maximum 10,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E) per year threshold established by SCAQMD. Impacts will be less than significant. 8. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Would the ro ect; Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a.

Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous X materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 10 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public X airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working X in the project area? g. Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted X emergency response plan or emergency evacuation Ian? h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk or loss, injury or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are X adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands? Discussion 8.) a. through h. Soil on the site has been remediated under the oversight of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control. High concentrations of PCB contaminated soil was hauled offsite, soils with lower levels of PCB contamination were permitted to remain onsite. Volatile Organic Compound contaminated soil is currently being remediated through a vapor extraction system. Engineering controls, such as a vapor barrier will be required under all buildings to prohibit the intrusion of vapors into the building. Prior to building permits being issued a soils management plan and engineering controls plan will be approved by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control. The proposed activities do not include work that could create a significant hazard involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment. Even if it did, the local Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) regulates use and storage of hazardous materials at any facility within the City of Vernon, which is the City of Vernon Environmental Health Department. All facilities within the City are regularly inspected by the Vernon Fire and Environmental Health Departments for code violations. The inspections are made to reduce the potential for urban fires and chemical releases. The Vernon Fire Department has a fully manned hazardous materials unit. All personnel are trained in hazardous material response. The proposed existing regulations and permitting requirements will be adhered to by the facility and this compliance will reduce potential hazards to less than significant levels. If required, a Hazardous Materials Establishment Permit, as required of all facilities within the City, must be submitted to and approved by the City of Vernon Environmental Health and Fire Departments. A Hazardous Materials Establishment Permit shall include, but not be limited to, instruction and on-the-job training of employees to identify and handle hazardous materials and shall be conducted by an individual knowledgeable in hazardous materials management. These requirements are standard requirements of facilities located within the City of Vernon to regulate the handling and storage of hazardous materials involved in the everyday function of non -hazardous businesses. There is no impact and no mitigation measures are necessary. The site is not designated a hazardous material site, nor is it within an airport land use plan. It is not a location proximate to wildlands, and as a result mitigation measures are unnecessary. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measure is required to safeguard that proper controls are in place to ensure that contaminated soil on the site is properly managed during the grading process and that emissions from the soil are properly controlled. H1 Prior to issuance of building permits, the project proponent shall submit, to the satisfaction of the Planning Department, documentation that the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and United States Environmental Protection Agency has approved a soils management plan for the site or has approved a waiver, and the DTSC has approved engineering controls for vapor intrusion into the buildings and that the contractor install such engineering controls or has approved a waiver. rPlanet Earth - Recycling Center mmai owuy CEQA Environmental Checklist 11 9.

Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures which X would impede or redirect flood flows? i. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the X failure of a levee or dam? j. Inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow? X Discussion 9.) a. through j. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has not designated the site as being within a 100-year flood hazard area, so no mitigation measures are necessary to prevent flooding. The City of Vernon maintains the streets to insure appropriate drainage is maintained for normal storms and water runoff. The site for the proposed development is adequate in size and shape including drainage and landscaping to accommodate development features as required by the zoning code. The site will be graded and paved to accommodate the recycling center structure and vehicle access in and around the property. The construction will incorporate local impact development standards in accordance with the City's guidelines. Since the site contains contaminated soil infiltration of stormwater has been determined to be infeasible. Instead onsite stormwater will be captured and bio-filtrated in accordance with the Los Angeles County MS4 NPDES permit issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. Therefore, there will be no impacts on water quality from the site. No changes in water currents or water movements will occur. There will be no impacts on the direction or rate of flow of groundwater and no impact on its quality. The City of Vernon is the primary water service provider in Vernon. The proposed project will use approximately 125,000 gallons per day of potable water or just over 140 acre feet per year which is well below the City's threshold of significance which is 500 acre feet per year. The project will discharge approximately 125,000 gallons a day of wastewater or a peak flow of 100 gallons per minute. Flow controls will be installed to ensure the peak flow rates are not exceeded. The local sewer has been reviewed rPlanet Earth - Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 12 and confirmed that it can handle this additional flow. The effluent will be required to meet LACSD requirements. An industrial waste permit will be required. The site has LACSD capacity units, however additional capacity units may be required to when the plant reaches its maximum production. The project site is not located in the vicinity of a body of water. Therefore, the project would not be susceptible to inundation by a seiche or tsunami. The project is not located down slope from an area of mudslope potential. The project site and surrounding area is fully urbanized, and therefore, no mudflow risks exist. No impacts would occur, and no mitigation measures would be necessary. 10. LAND USE AND PLANNING.

C. Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan? X Discussion 10.) a. through c. The proposed project area is zoned I -Zone, Industrial. The City of Vernon is primarily made up of industrial and distribution type facilities. The project area will not conflict with any environmental plans or policies. No Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP), Natural Community Conservation Plan (NCCP), or other approved local, regional, or state HCP applies within the Vernon Planning Area. There will be no conflict with either an HCP or NCCP. Therefore, no significant impact associated with the propose use of the property will occur. No significant impacts will be created. The project site is surrounded by compatible uses and will not disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of any established communities. 11. MINERAL RESOURCES.

The proposed operation will be fully developed within the confines of the building. No mineral extractions occur in the process, either on site or nearby. The California Geological Service has not classified the site as within a mineral producing area. No impacts would occur, and no mitigation measures are necessary. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Stuoy CEQA Environmental Checklist 13 12. NOISE. Would the project result in: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Im act Impact a. Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise X ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b. Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive ground- X borne vibration or round -borne noise levels? C. A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the X project vicinity above levels existing without theproject? d. A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the X project? e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people X residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to X excessive noise levels? Discussion 12.) a. through f. The City of Vernon Zoning Ordinance establishes comprehensive noise limits within the General Industrial Zone. Section 26.4.1-7(b)(2)(i) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance establishes exterior noise standards for development within the General Industrial Zone. In accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, the City sets forth noise limits for point -source noise as follows; • 75 dBA citywide, except within one -tenth of a mile from any residence or public school; • Within one -tenth of a mile of residences and schools, 65 dBA during day -time hours (between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.); and • Within one -tenth of a mile of residences, 60 dBA during night-time hours (between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.). Normal operations within the proposed facility will include trucks entering the facility, transferring freight, processing of scrap plastic and an extruder machine that will be operated indoors to reduce noise levels from the neighboring businesses. Noise levels within the structure are expected to reach 80 dba. Noise protection will be provided to employees in accordance with OSHA requirements. The proposed operations are not expected to noise impacts in excess of the established standards. No equipment within the building nor operational activity generates vibrations or ground -borne noise level. Construction of new building will generate short-term, localized noise. However, the project site is within an industrial area where the surrounding commercial/retail, manufacturing and warehousing uses are not noise sensitive. Construction activities will be limited to hours permitted by the City. Therefore, these will be no significant noise impacts. The use of the facility will not permanently increase the ambient noise levels. The project is not located within an airport land use plan nor within two miles of a public use airport. The project is not located within the vicinity of a private airstrip. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 14 13. POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the project.

Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the X construction of replacement housing elsewhoro? Discussion 13.) a. through c. This project will have no impact on population growth, nor will it diSpiace anfy existing housing or people. 14. PUBLIC SERVICES. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Im act —impact a. Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts X associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: Fireprotection? X Policeprotection? X Schools? Parks? X X Other public facilities? I I X Discussion 14.) a. Emergency services including fire and police protection, emergency medical services, and hazardous material control are all provided by the City. In any emergency, immediate response from fire or police agencies comes within 4 minutes of any emergency request. While there are risks of fire associated with any industrial business in Vernon, this project does not significantly increase that risk, and no additional levels of service from either fire or police is considered necessary. The project will be located in a highly industrialized and developed area. The proposed project will not pose a need for new or altered fire, police or school services within the City of Vernon. The project shall be required to maintain all materials on -site and prevent any off -site migration of trash or materials, unless hauled off by a refuse company. The project will consume up to 19 megawatts of electrical energy. The Vernon Gas and Electric Department has determined that it has sufficient capacity to handle the increase in load. The City's Leonis substation will be upgraded to handle the additional load. No additional land area is required for the substation upgrade. No improvements to the electrical distribution system is necessary. During operation, the site shall be maintained to prevent any impacts to the maintenance of public facilities. Therefore, there will be no significant impacts to public facilities. The nearest school and park is slightly more than one mile from the property. No other public facilities are impacted by this project. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial 5tuay CEQA Environmental Checklist 15 15. RECREATION.

Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might X have an adverse physical effect on the environment? Discussion 15.) a. and b. As indicated previously, no population increases or displacements are caused by this project. As such no recreational facilities or public use facilities are impacted in any way. 16. TRANSPORTATIONNRAFFIC. Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Im act —Impact a. Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation including mass transit and non -motorized travel X and relevant components of the circulation system, including but limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and mass transit? b. Conflict with an applicable congestion management program, including, but not limited to level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other standards established by the X county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? C. Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in X substantial safety risks? d. Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses X (e.g., farm equipment)? e. Result in inadequate emergency access? X f. Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs regarding public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise X decrease the performance or safety of such facilities? Discussion 16.) a. through f. Several freeways serve the City of Vernon. To the north is the Santa Ana (1-5), Santa Monica (1-10) and the Hollywood (1-101) freeways, to the west is the Harbor Freeway (1-110), and to the east is the Long Beach Freeway (1-710). The City of Vernon has several arterials, which bisect the City. The streets surrounding the project site are adequate in width and are improved as necessary to carry the traffic expected by this proposed use. The proposed activities would not be expected to cause an overloading of the capacity of the surrounding street system, as the project site is located rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center 16 Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist in an existing industrial area and traffic generated by the project is similar to the previous use of the site. The project is expected to generate 65 truck trips per day (24 hours, 7 days a week) and approximately 151 vehicle trips per day, which includes employee trips to and from the workplace, visitor trips, and miscellaneous employee trips throughout the day. One vehicle trip is comprised of one movement in and one movement out of the facility. No safety hazards resulting from incompatible uses are expected. According to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance the proposed site will have sufficient parking and loading stalls required as defined in the zoning code. Since the new development will supply sufficient parking and loading on -site and will create no impact, no overflow parking onto adjacent side streets will occur. Significant impacts are not expected. The site was previously utilized for an industrial operation. The proposed use will be different, but initially not as much of an impact as the previous occupant, if any will not negatively impact the level of service of the nearby intersections. According to the ITE manual the projected traffic from the project is less than the volume of traffic from a typical industrial or distribution facility that would be permitted by right at the site. The activity at the site will not involve direct waterborne or air traffic. Vernon's industrial base makes this operation compatible with the physical aspects of roads and intersections. The transportation necessary to conduct rPlanet Earth's business does not impact public transportation, bicycles, pedestrian facilities, or emergency access. 17. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS. Would the project. Potentially Potentally Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Inco orated Impact Impact a. Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable X Regional Water Quality Control Board RWQCB ? b. Require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing X facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? C. Require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the X construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? d. Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or X ex anded entitlements needed? e. Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider, which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate X capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to theprovider's existing commitments? f. Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to X accommodate the roject's solid waste disposal needs? g. Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations X related to solid waste? Discussion 17.) a. through g. The proposed site is located in an area that is fully urbanized and served by an existing extensive electricity and gas infrastructure. Implementation of the project is not expected to result in the need for new power lines or natural gas systems. The proposed project will use approximately 125,000 gallons per day of potable water or just over 140 acre feet per year which is well below the City's threshold of significance which is 500 acre feet per year. The project will discharge approximately 125,000 gallons a day of wastewater at a peak flow of 100 gallons per minute. Flow controls will be installed to ensure the peak flow rates are not exceeded. The local sewer has been reviewed and confirmed that it can handle this additional flow. The effluent will be required to meet LACSD requirements. An industrial waste permit will be required. The site has LACSD capacity units, but additional capacity units may be required at full production. The project will consume up to 19 megawatts of electrical energy. The Vernon Gas and Electric Department has determined that it has sufficient capacity to handle the increase in load. The City's Leonis substation will be upgraded to handle the additional rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center 17 m¢iai away CEQA Environmental Checklist load. No additional land area is required for the substation upgrade. No improvements to the electrical distribution system is necessary. Other than conduit being placed from an existing power pole to serve the property. The proposed site will be served by existing communication systems. The telephone, cable, and other communication systems are adequate and available to serve the proposed site. No need for new communication systems are required to serve the proposed site. The site was previously served with water, sewer, and storm water drainage utilities and service will continue with the proposed site. All main lines are in place and the proposed operation will not require any additional services beyond those presently offered. The proponents will provide their own refuse pick up. Therefore, there will be no impact. 18. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Im act Incorporated Im act Impact a. Does the project 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- sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal X 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 orprehistory? b. Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are X considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? C. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or X indirectly? Discussion 18.) a. through c. As previously indicated the project is located within the City of Vernon, zoned "I" Industrial, and is compatible with the industries in the surrounding area. The City of Vernon is primarily made up of industrial and distribution type facilities with limited plant life. Plant life is limited to non-native and ornamental species, which are used for landscaping. Animal life in Vernon and nearby urban communities consists of bird, reptile and mammal species that live in close proximity to man. There are no endangered species in Vernon. There is no evidence or important examples of major periods of California history in Vernon. Therefore, the proposed project will create no impact. There will not be an impact on long-term environmental goals. The proposed project will not cause a cumulative impact to air quality, traffic, noise, groundwater, surface water, or exposure to hazardous materials, and will not create any impact to sensitive receptors, except that the project may cause a less than significant impact on greenhouse gas emissions if the use of coatings is properly mitigated. Therefore, the cumulative impact will be less than significant. rPlanet Earth - Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 18 wl4� w a a 0 0 � A o � on ti o m o �a N n V ' O'C =� '^ao on 'b on y r�ooG 3 c. aC7a 4.

General Plan Designation: Industrial 7. Zoning: I -Zone, Industrial S. Project Description: rPlanet Earth Los Angeles, LLC ("rPlanet Earth") has submitted an application for a conditional use permit to operate a recycling facility Inaated at 3200 Fruitland Avenue in the City of Vernon. They are proposing to construct and operate a 302,300 square foot industrial building and a 35,000 square foot exterior canopy. The site is currently vacant and unpaved with no defined drainage pattern. The proposed site shall be paved with an Impermeable surface that meets City of Vernon standards. Pechiney Cast Plate, Inc. a manufacturing facility previously occupied the site. The proposed use will consist of processing recycled material, storage, shredding and extruding of plastics, and sorting of post-industrial plastic scraps and will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and the City of Vernon General Plan. The project is subject to the California Environmental Duality Act (CEQA) because it requires discretionary approval. 9. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting: The surrounding land use is mix of industrial, distribution, residential, utility and municipal uses. The City of Vernon is primarily made up of industrial and distribution type facilities. The property to be developed is bordered by Fruitland Avenue on the north and Boyle Avenue to the west. 10.

Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Im act Im act a. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? X b. Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within X a state scenic highway'?. C. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of X the site and its surroundings? d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would X adfersely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Discussion 1.) a. through d. The project Imaliun is ht art industrial area tsutruunded by industrial and residential facilities in a topography that is very flat and does not provide any scenic vista open to the public. Therefore, the proposed project will create no impact. The project site is currently vacant and unpaved. All buildings on the site have been demolished to grade level. Pechiney Cast Plate, Inc. a manufacturing facility previously occupied the site. The project site is located in an industrial area and lighting of facilities is common. Construction of the site would likely create a minor increase in the amount of nighttime lighting over the existing land use. Therefore, it would not adversely affect views in the area. Given the existing lighting surrounding the project area, no impacts would occur with regard to light and glare. As previously discussed, the project site is located in an existing industrial area and will be developed with industrial and warehouse uses in accordance with the City's Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, the project site will not degrade visual character or quality as it will be similar to the previous use. Therefore, the project site will have no impact on scenic resources, degrade the existing visual character, or create new source of substantial light or glare are anticipated. 2. AGRICULTURE AND FOREST RESOURCES. In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. In determining whether impacts to forest resources, including timberland are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to information complied by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection regarding the state's inventory of forest land, including the Forest and Range Assessment Project and the Forest Legacy Assessment project; and forest carbon measurement methodology provided in Forest Protocols adopted by the California Air Resources Board. — Would the project: Potentially Significant Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Less Than Significant No Issues and Supportina Information Sources Im act Inco rated Im act Im act a.

Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, E to non-agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non -forest use? Discussion 2.) a. through e. There is no existing or proposed zoning for forest land or issues relating to conversion of forest land to non -forest use. The site is zoned I, "Industrial", per the City of Vernon Zoning Code. No agricultural uses are permitted under the current zoning designation. In addition, the project site is not enrolled under a Williamson Act contract. Therefore, the project would not conflict with existing agricultural resources, zoning or a William Act contract. No impacts would occur, and no mitigation measures would be necessary. 3. AIR QUALITY. Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Im act —impact a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air X quality Ian? b. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an X existing or projected air quality violation? C. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non -attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality X standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant X concentrations? e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of X people? Discussion 3.) a. and c. (Planning and Cumulative Impacts). Conflicts and obstructions that hinder implementation of the South Coast Air Basin 2012 Air Quality Management Plan can delay efforts to meet attainment deadlines for criteria pollutants and maintaining existing compliance with applicable air quality standards. Pursuant to the methodology provided in Chapter 12 of the 1993 SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook, consistency with the South Coast Air Basin 2012 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) is affirmed when a project (1) does not increase the frequency or severity of an air quality standards violation or cause a new violation and (2) is consistent with the growth assumptions in the AQMP.IIi Consistency review is presented below: 1. The project would result in short-term construction and long-term pollutant emissions that are less than the CEQA significance emissions thresholds established by the SCAQMD, as demonstrated in this report; therefore, the project could not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of any air quality standards violation and will not cause a new air quality standard violation. 2. The CEQA Air Quality Handbook indicates that consistency with AQMP growth assumptions must be analyzed for new or amended General Plan elements, Specific Plans, and significant projects. Significant projects include airports, electrical generating facilities, petroleum and gas refineries, designation of oil drilling districts, water ports, solid waste disposal sites, and off -shore drilling facilities; therefore, the proposed project is not defined as significant. This project does not include a General Plan Amendment and therefore does not required consistency analysis with the AQMP. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist Based on the consistency analysis presented above, the proposed project will not conflict with the AQMP. Furthermore, because the project is consistent with the AQMP, the project will not result in any cumulative impacts pursuant to the projection method of analysis of cumulative impacts identified in CEQA. b. (Criteria Pollutants) Regional Significance Based on the results of the model, maximum daily emissions from the construction of the proposed project will not result in excessive criteria pollutant emissions as summarized in Table 1 (Maximum Daily Construction Emissions (Ibs. /day)). Based on the results of the model, maximum daily emissions from the construction of the project will result in excessive emissions of volatile organic chemicals (identified as reactive organic gases) associated with interior and exterior coating activities. To mitigate for excessive VOC emissions from coating activities, the project proponent will be required to use a combination of low-VOC coatings and/or scheduling adjustments to ensure that the daily threshold is not exceeded. For example, the model outputs attached to this report includes use of a maximum 40 grams per liter (g/1) VOC content for interior and exterior coatings. Use of low-VOC coatings during construction activities will reduce VOC emissions to 70 Ibs/day, less than the threshold established by SCAQMD. The model was also run with use of 25 g/I VOC content for interior coatings and 50 gA VOC content for exterior coatings, resulting in 51 lbs/day VOC emissions. The project proponent also has the option of extending the coating schedule by limiting the daily coating activities. For example, extending the coating schedule to 109 days by limiting interior and/or exterior coating activities to 6,424 square feet per day without use of low-VOC paints would reduce emissions to below the SCAQMD threshold. The requirement for use of low-VOC coatings and/or scheduling options has been included as Mitigation Measure AQ-1.

Although the region may be in attainment for a particular criteria pollutant, localized emissions from construction activities coupled with ambient pollutant levels can cause localized increases in criteria pollutant that exceed national and/or State air quality standards. Construction -related criteria pollutant emissions and potentially significant localized impacts were evaluated pursuant to the SCAQMD Final Localized Significance Thresholds Methodology. This methodology provides screening tables for rPlanet Earth - Recycling Center inmai 5tuuy CEQA Environmental Checklist one through five acre project scenarios, depending on the amount of site disturbance during a day using the Fact Sheet for equipment usage in CalEEMod.iv Daily oxides of nitrogen (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) emissions will occur during construction of the project, grading of the project site, and paving of facility parking lots and drive aisles. Table 3 (Localized Significance Threshold Analysis) summarize on- and off- site emissions as compared to the local thresholds established for Source Receptor Area (SRA) 1 (Central Los Angeles). Based on the use of one grader, one dozer, two scrapers, and two tractors during grading activities, a 3- acre threshold will be used (using linear regression). A 25 meter receptor distance was used to reflect the proximity of nearby business. Note that particulate matter emissions from grading activities account for daily watering required by SCAQMD Rule 403 (three times per day for a 55 percent reduction in fugitive dust). Emissions from construction activities will not exceed any localized threshold Table 3 Localized Si nificance Threshold Analysis Obs.

No No No No Operation -related LSTs become of concern when there are substantial on -site stationary sources that could impact surrounding receptors. As a manufacturing use, the project has the potential to generate particulate matter emissions and VOC emissions associated with plastics recycling and molding. All equipment and operations will be conducted in accordance with AQMD permit requirements. In particular, bag houses and cyclones will be used to filter particulate matter from emission streams prior to venting into the atmosphere. The proposed project will also not emit VOCs based on the proposed operations plan as a "green" facility. The proposed project design coupled with regulatory requirements will ensure that operation -related LSTs will not be exceeded. d. (Sensitive Receptors) Sensitive receptors are those segments of the population that are most susceptible to poor air quality such as children, the elderly, the sick, and athletes who perform outdoors. Land uses associated with sensitive receptors include residences, schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, outdoor athletic facilities, long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, and retirement homes. The City of Vernon is almost exclusively industrial in character and there are no sensitive receptors in proximity to the project. Furthermore, the proposed project will not generate substantial toxic pollutant emissions. All equipment will be installed and operating in accordance with SCAQMD permitting requirements. e. (Odors) According to the CEQA Air Quality Handbook, land uses associated with odor complaints include agricultural operations, wastewater treatment plants, landfills, and certain industrial operations (such as manufacturing uses that produce chemicals, paper, etc.). Odors are typically associated with industrial projects involving the use of chemicals, solvents, petroleum products, and other strong -smelling elements used in manufacturing processes, as well as sewage treatment facilities and landfills. Plastics manufacturing generate odors through the recycling and manufacturing process; however, these operations will be entirely enclosed. within the proposed r Planet Earth building. Industrial steam and heat exhaust will vent from the roof of the facility into the atmosphere but will not include odors. Outdoor storage of baled plastic product that will be eventually be recycled will occur. This product will be stored under a canopy located at the northwest corner of the site. All product delivered to the site is required to be rinsed and clean prior to delivery. Therefore the product does not produce an odor. However, conditions of approval will required that the material be cleaned prior to delivery to the site and that it must meet South Coast Air Quality standards for odors. Finally, there are no sensitive receptors in vicinity of the project and the City is a generally industrialized area where manufacturing uses and associated odors are common. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 4.

Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved X local, regional, or state habitat conservation Ian? Discussion 4.) a. through f. The project site is in a highly developed industrial area of the City of Vernon. No vegetation or natural habitat exists on the project site or in the vicinity. Given the highly industrial character of the project site and surrounding area, the potential for any special status species (i.e., endangered or threatened species) to occur is highly unlikely. No unique biological resources or habitat conservation areas exist within the City of Vernon. No species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are known to exist within the City of Vernon. Therefore, no significant impact associated with these issues will occur. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and SLpporfing Information Sources impact Incorporated Im act Impact a. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a X historical resource as defined in Section 15064.5? b.

Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource X or site or unique geologic feature? d. Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of X formal cemeteries? rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist Discussion 5.) a. through d. There are no known cultural resources in the area. CEQA Guidelines define historical resources as any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record or manuscript determined to be historically significant or significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California. The project will not result in any action that will directly cause the elimination or alteration of any building that may have historic signficance. The project site itself does not meet any of the cultural resource qualifications for being a historical, archeological, or paleontological resource. As part of the demolition of the above and below grade structures and soil remediation activities that have occurred at the site deep excavation were performed throughout the site and no cultural artifacts were found. Therefore, no significant impact associated with these issues will occur. 6. GEOLOGY AND SOILS.

Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers X are not available for the disposal of wastewater? Discussion 6.) a. (i. through iv.) Although there are no known earthquake faults in the City, however, many fault systems traverse Los Angeles County and the border region which have the potential to cause damage in the City in the event of an earthquake. While the City of Vernon would potentially be subject to seismic ground shaking due to earthquakes, the new development/construction shall be required to be in compliance with (Zone 4) seismicity requirements of the California Building Code (CBC). A secondary effect of ground shaking is soil liquefaction. Liquefaction is a process by which sediments below the water table temporarily lose strength and behave as a liquid rather than a solid. In the liquefied condition, soil may deform enough to cause damage to buildings and other structures. Seismic shaking is the most common cause of liquefaction. The General Plan Safety Element includes Figure S-2, Liquefaction Zone that illustrates the areas susceptible to liquefaction within the City. The Safety Element states that liquefaction is not considered a serious threat in Vernon. Because liquefaction is not considered a serious threat, combined with the City's standard practice of requiring engineering studies and conformance with the City Building Code and CBC seismic -related ground impacts (including liquefaction) are considered to be less than significant. Seismically -induced landslides tend to occur in areas with weak soil and rock on sloping terrain. Generally these areas are characterized by steep slopes composed of weak materials that may fail when shaking by an earthquake. The topography of the City of Vernon and adjoining area are relatively flat. In the absence of significant ground slopes, the potential for seismically -induced landslides to occur is considered negligible and no impacts would result. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist b. through e. The City of Vernon is highly urbanized and developed with limited open space. Construction and operation of the recycling center would not alter this condition. The City is relatively flat, with very little variation in topography. Implementation of the project would not result in substantial changes in topography or create erosion or unstable conditions. The potential for erosion and/or unstable conditions is less than significant. The local geologic unit within this deep trough that represents the deposits around Vernon is comprised of Quarternary aged unconsolidated floodplain deposits of silt, sand, gravel and minor amounts of clay soil underlined by Tertiary and continental deposits. Expansive soils and unstable geologic units are not expected in the area. If unstable or expansive soil is encountered during construction activities, then the contractor will be required to use specific engineering and construction methods to ensure it meets city standards As discussed above, impacts relative to seismically induced ground -shaking (including liquefaction) would be less than significant. The project area is not located in an area subject to on- or off -site landslides. Seismic ground -shaking impacts would be less than significant with conformance with current City Building Code and CBC standards, as well as standards engineering practices. No significant impact would result. The project does not require the development of either septic tanks or alternative wastewater systems. No related impacts would result. 7.

The long-term GHG emissions for the proposed project are summarized in Table 4 (Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory). Table 4 represents the project's business as usual (BAU) emissions and does not include any form of mitigation or GHG reducing project features. Greenhouse gas emissions will not exceed the 10,000 MTCO2E threshold.

As a project -level manufacturing facility, the project includes no component that could interfere with the implementation of any plan, policy, or standard at the state, regional, or local level to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The project will not result in appreciable greenhouse gas emissions that could contribute considerably to global climate change and will incorporate green building techniques, water conservation requirements, and other requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as required by state law. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measures are required to ensure that project -related emissions do not exceed established thresholds. AQ1 Prior to issuance of building permits, the project proponent shall submit, to the satisfaction of the Planning Department, a Coating Restriction Plan (CRP), consistent with South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) guidelines and a letter agreeing to include in any construction contracts and/or subcontracts a requirement that the contractors adhere to the CRP. The CRP measures shall be implemented to the satisfaction of City Building Director. These may include, but is not limited to, the following: That volatile organic compounds (VOC) of proposed architectural coatings not exceed 25 gA for interior applications. That volatile organic compounds (VOC) of proposed architectural coatings not exceed 50 g/I for exterior applications. Limiting daily coating application. This measure shall conform to the performance standard that emissions of volatile organic compounds from application of interior or exterior coatings shall not exceed the daily emissions thresholds established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The CRP shall specify use of High -Volume, Low Pressure (HVLP) spray guns for application of coatings. Conclusion The proposed project is consistent with the South Coast Air Basin's Air Quality Management Plan and will therefore not conflict with or obstruct implementation of any air quality plan and subsequently will not result in cumulative air quality impacts. SCAQMD thresholds for daily criteria pollutant emissions will not be exceeded by the project with mitigation incorporated. The project will not result in emissions of any toxic air contaminant or odors. Greenhouse gas emissions from the proposed project will not exceed the maximum 10,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E) per year threshold established by SCAQMD. Impacts will be less than significant. 8. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Would the ro ect; Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a.

Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section X rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 10 65962.5 and, as a result, would It create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public X airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working X in the project area? g. Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted X emergency response plan or emergency evacuation Ian? h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk or loss, injury or death involving wildiand fires, including where wildlands are X adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands? Discussion 8.) a. through h. Soil on the site has been remediated under the oversight of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control. High concentrations of PCB contaminated soil was hauled offsite, soils with lower levels of PCB contamination were permitted to remain onsite. Volatile Organic Compound contaminated soil is currently being remediated through a vapor extraction system. Engineering controls, such as a vapor barrier will be required under all buildings to prohibit the intrusion of vapors into the building. Prior to building permits being issued a soils management plan and engineering controls plan will be approved by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control. The proposed activities do not include work that could create a significant hazard involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment. Even if it did, the local Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) regulates use and storage of hazardous materials at any facility within the City of Vernon, which is the City of Vernon Environmental Health Department. All facilities within the City are regularly inspected by the Vernon Fire and Environmental Health Departments for code violations. The inspections are made to reduce the potential for urban fires and chemical releases. The Vernon Fire Department has a fully manned hazardous materials unit. All personnel are trained in hazardous material response. The proposed existing regulations and permitting requirements will be adhered to by the facility and this compliance will reduce potential hazards to less than significant levels. If required, a Hazardous Materials Establishment Permit, as required of all facilities within the City, must be submitted to and approved by the City of Vernon Environmental Health and Fire Departments. A Hazardous Materials Establishment Permit shall include, but not be limited to, instruction and on-the-job training of employees to identify and handle hazardous materials and shall be conducted by an individual knowledgeable in hazardous materials management. These requirements are standard requirements of facilities located within the City of Vernon to regulate the handling and storage of hazardous materials involved in the everyday function of non -hazardous businesses. There is no impact and no mitigation measures are necessary. The site is not designated a hazardous material site, nor is it within an airport land use plan. It is not a location proximate to wildlands, and as a result mitigation measures are unnecessary. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measure is required to safeguard that proper controls are in place to ensure that contaminated soil on the site is properly managed during the grading process and that emissions from the soil are properly controlled. H1 Prior to issuance of building permits, the project proponent shall submit, to the satisfaction of the Planning Department, documentation that the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and United States Environmental Protection Agency has approved a soils management plan for the site or has approved a waiver, and the DTSC has approved engineering controls for vapor intrusion into the buildings and that the contractor install such engineering controls or has approved a waiver. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 11 9. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY.

Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge X requirements? b. Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing X nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)? C. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream X or river, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off -site? d. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream X or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in flooding on- or off -site? e.

Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures which X would impede or redirect flood flows? i. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the X failure of a levee or dam? j. Inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow? X Discussion 9.) a. through j. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has not designated the site as being within a 100-year flood hazard area, so no mitigation measures are necessary to prevent flooding. The City of Vernon maintains the streets to insure appropriate drainage is maintained for normal storms and water runoff. The site for the proposed development is adequate in size and shape including drainage and landscaping to accommodate development features as required by the zoning code. The site will be graded and paved to accommodate the recycling center structure and vehicle access in and around the property. The construction will incorporate local impact development standards in accordance with the City's guidelines. Since the site contains contaminated soil infiltration of stormwater has been determined to be infeasible. Instead onsite stormwater will be captured and bio-filtrated in accordance with the Los Angeles County MS4 NPDES permit issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. Therefore, there will be no impacts on water quality from the site. No changes in water currents or water movements will occur. There will be no impacts on the direction or rate of flow of groundwater and no impact on its quality. The City of Vernon is the primary water service provider in Vernon. The proposed project will use approximately 125,000 gallons per day of potable water or just over 140 acre feet per year which is well below the City's threshold of significance which is 500 acre feet per year. The project will discharge approximately 125,000 gallons a day of wastewater or a peak flow of 100 gallons per minute. Flow controls will be installed to ensure the peak flow rates are not exceeded. The local sewer has been reviewed rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 12 and confirmed that it can handle this additional flow. The effluent will be required to meet LACSD requirements. An industrial waste permit will be required. The site has LACSD capacity units, however additional capacity units may be required to when the plant reaches its maximum production. The project site is not located in the vicinity of a body of water. Therefore, the project would not be susceptible to inundation by a seiche or tsunami. The project is not located down slope from an area of mudslope potential. The project site and surrounding area is fully urbanized, and therefore, no mudflow risks exist. No impacts would occur, and no mitigation measures would be necessary. 10. LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the project.

C. Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural X community conservation plan? Discussion 10.) a. through c. The proposed project area is zoned I -Zone, Industrial. The City of Vernon is primarily made up of Industrial and distribution type facilities. The project area will not conflict with any environmental plans or policies. No Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP), Natural Community Conservation Plan (NCCP), or other approved local, regional, or state HCP applies within the Vernon Planning Area. There will be no conflict with either an HCP or NCCP. Therefore, no significant impact associated with the propose use of the property will occur. No significant impacts will be created. The project site is surrounded by compatible uses and will not disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of any established communities. 11. MINERAL RESOURCES.

The proposed operation will be fully developed within the confines of the building. No mineral extractions occur in the process, either on site or nearby. The California Geological Service has not classified the site as within a mineral producing area. No impacts would occur, and no mitigation measures are necessary. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center inmai 5tuay CEQA Environmental Checklist 13 12. NOISE. Would the project result in: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a.

For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to X excessive noise levels? Discussion 12.) a. through f. The City of Vernon Zoning Ordinance establishes comprehensive noise limits within the General Industrial Zone. Section 26.4.1-7(b)(2)(i) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance establishes exterior noise standards for development within the General Industrial Zone. In accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, the City sets forth noise limits for point -source noise as follows; • 75 dBA citywide, except within one -tenth of a mile from any residence or public school; • Within one -tenth of a mile of residences and schools, 65 dBA during day -time hours (between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.); and • Within one -tenth of a mile of residences, 60 dBA during night-time hours (between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.). Normal operations within the proposed facility will include trucks entering the facility, transferring freight, processing of scrap plastic and an extruder machine that will be operated indoors to reduce noise levels from the neighboring businesses. Noise levels within the structure are expected to reach 80 dba. Noise protection will be provided to employees in accordance with OSHA requirements. The proposed operations are not expected to noise impacts in excess of the established standards. No equipment within the building nor operational activity generates vibrations or ground-bome noise level. Construction of new building will generate short-term, localized noise. However, the project site is within an industrial area where the surrounding commercial/retail, manufacturing and warehousing uses are not noise sensitive. Construction activities will be limited to hours permitted by the City. Therefore, these will be no significant noise impacts. The use of the facility will not permanently increase the ambient noise levels. The project is not located within an airport land use plan nor within two miles of a public use airport. The project is not located within the vicinity of a private airstrip. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 14 13. POPULATION AND HOUSING.

Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts X associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: Fireprotection? X Policeprotection? X Schools? X Parks? X Other public facilities? I X Discussion 14.) a. Emergency services including fire and police protection, emergency medical services, and hazardous material control are all provided by the City. In any emergency, immediate response from fire or police agencies comes within 4 minutes of any emergency request. While there are risks of fire associated with any industrial business in Vernon, this project does not significantly increase that risk, and no additional levels of service from either fire or police is considered necessary. The project will be located in a highly industrialized and developed area. The proposed project will not pose a need for new or altered fire, police or school services within the City of Vernon. The project shall be required to maintain all materials on -site and prevent any off -site migration of trash or materials, unless hauled off by a refuse company. The project will consume up to 19 megawatts of electrical energy. The Vernon Gas and Electric Department has determined that it has sufficient capacity to handle the increase in load. The City's Leonis substation will be upgraded to handle the additional load. No additional land area is required for the substation upgrade. No improvements to the electrical distribution system is necessary. During operation, the site shall be maintained to prevent any impacts to the maintenance of public facilities. Therefore, there will be no significant impacts to public facilities. The nearest school and park is slightly more than one mile from the property. No other public facilities are impacted by this project. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 15 15. RECREATION.

Discussion 15.) a. and b. As indicated previously, no population increases or displacements are caused by this project. As such no recreational facilities or public use facilities are impacted in any way. 16. TRANSPORTATIONITRAFFIC. Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation including mass transit and non -motorized travel X and relevant components of the circulation system, including but limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and mass transit? b. Conflict with an applicable congestion management program, including, but not limited to level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other standards established by the X county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? C. Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in X substantial safety risks? d. Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses X (e.g., farm equipment)? e. Result in inadequate emergency access? X f.

Discussion 16.) a. through f. Several freeways serve the City of Vernon. To the north is the Santa Ana (1-5), Santa Monica (1-10) and the Hollywood (1-101) freeways, to the west is the Harbor Freeway (1-110), and to the east is the Long Beach Freeway (1-710). The City of Vernon has several arterials, which bisect the City. The streets surrounding the project site are adequate in width and are improved as necessary to carry the traffic expected by this proposed use. The proposed activities would not be expected to cause an overloading of the capacity of the surrounding street system, as the project site is located rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center 16 Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist in an existing industrial area and traffic generated by the project is similar to the previous use of the site. The project is expected to generate 65 truck trips per day (24 hours, 7 days a week) and approximately 151 vehicle trips per day, which includes employee trips to and from the workplace, visitor trips, and miscellaneous employee trips throughout the day. One vehicle trip is comprised of one movement in and one movement out of the facility. No safety hazards resulting from incompatible uses are expected. According to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance the proposed site will have sufficient parking and loading stalls required as defined in the zoning code. Since the new development will supply sufficient parking and loading on -site and will create no impact, no overflow parking onto adjacent side streets will occur. Significant impacts are not expected. The site was previously utilized for an industrial operation. The proposed use will be different, but initially not as much of an impact as the previous occupant, if any will not negatively impact the level of service of the nearby intersections. According to the ITE manual the projected traffic from the project is less than the volume of traffic from a typical industrial or distribution facility that would be permitted by right at the site. The activity at the site will not involve direct waterbome or air traffic. Vernon's industrial base makes this operation compatible with the physical aspects of roads and intersections. The transportation necessary to conduct rPlanet Earth's business does not impact public transportation, bicycles, pedestrian facilities, or emergency access. 17. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable X Regional Water Quality Control Board RWQCB ? b. Require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing X facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? C. Require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the X construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? d. Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or X expanded entitlements needed? e. Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider, which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate X capacity to serve the projects projected demand in addition to theprovider's existing commitments? f. Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to X accommodate the projects solid waste disposal needs? g. Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations X related to solid waste? Discussion 17.) a. through g. The proposed site is located in an area that is fully urbanized and served by an existing extensive electricity and gas infrastructure. Implementation of the project is not expected to result in the need for new power lines or natural gas systems. The proposed project will use approximately 125,000 gallons per day of potable water or just over 140 acre feet per year which is well below the City's threshold of significance which is 500 acre feet per year. The project will discharge approximately 125,000 gallons a day of wastewater at a peak flow of 100 gallons per minute. Flow controls will be installed to ensure the peak flow rates are not exceeded. The local sewer has been reviewed and confirmed that it can handle this additional flow. The effluent will be required to meet LACSD requirements. An industrial waste permit will be required. The site has LACSD capacity units, but additional capacity units may be required at full production. The project will consume up to 19 megawatts of electrical energy. The Vernon Gas and Electric Department has determined that it has sufficient capacity to handle the increase in load. The City's Leonis substation will be upgraded to handle the additional rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 17 load. No additional land area is required for the substation upgrade. No improvements to the electrical distribution system is necessary. Other than conduit being placed from an existing power pole to serve the property. The proposed site will be served by existing communication systems. The telephone, cable, and other communication systems are adequate and available to serve the proposed site. No need for new communication systems are required to serve the proposed site. The site was previously served with water, sewer, and storm water drainage utilities and service will continue with the proposed site. All main lines are in place and the proposed operation will not require any additional services beyond those presently offered. The proponents will provide their own refuse pick up. Therefore, there will be no impact. 18. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. Would the project. Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact —impact a. Does the project 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- sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal X community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the mcijor periods of California history orprehistory? b. Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are X considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? C. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or X indirectl . Discussion 18.) a. through c. As previously indicated the project is located within the City of Vernon, zoned "I" Industrial, and is compatible with the industries in the surrounding area. The City of Vernon is primarily made up of industrial and distribution type facilities with limited plant life. Plant life is limited to non-native and ornamental species, which are used for landscaping. Animal life in Vernon and nearby urban communities consists of bird, reptile and mammal species that live in close proximity to man. There are no endangered species in Vernon. There is no evidence or important examples of major periods of California history in Vernon. Therefore, the proposed project will create no impact. There will not be an impact on long-term environmental goals. The proposed project will not cause a cumulative impact to air quality, traffic, noise, groundwater, surface water, or exposure to hazardous materials, and will not create any impact to sensitive receptors, except that the project may cause a less than significant impact on greenhouse gas emissions if the use of coatings is properly mitigated. Therefore, the cumulative impact will be less than significant. rPlanet Earth — Recycling Center Initial Study CEQA Environmental Checklist 18 City of Vernon NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, CA 90058 (323) 583-8811 The City Council of the City of Vernon will conduct a Public Hearing, which you may attend.

The process will consist of incoming baled postconsumer PET being delivered to the facility via truck. The bales will then be broken into single bottles that will undergo a series of scans by high tech optical sorters supplemented by human sortation. The resulting clear plastic PET bottles will be grinded into a flake and undergo a series of dry and then wet wash steps prior to being heated to about 200 degrees Celsius and residing in the vacuum decontamination reactors where it is purified to the FDA's requirements for direct food contact (the plant will have the ability to purify the rPET flake to the Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co specs, that are considered to be the most stringent in the industry and exceed those of the FDA). The resulting "bottle grade" flake will then be used to manufacture extruded sheet, thermoformed containers (drinking cups, deli round containers, salad containers, etc.) and preforms (the first part produced in the 2 step process to manufacture PET beverage containers). The finished product will then be moved to the warehouse area within the facility prior to being shipped to their customers located in the LA area. The facility will run 24/7 with two 12 shifts per day.

The proposed project requires a conditional use permit for the construction and operation of a recycling and packaging manufacturing facility. LAUSD appreciates the opportunity to be a contributor to the environmental planning process and requests that the City continue to consider LAUSD's neighboring schools in its development to ensure that the potential environmental impacts associated with the City's projects are substantially minimized, reduced, avoided, or otherwise mitigated. While there are no LAUSD schools operating within the immediate proximity (or 0.25 mile) of the proposed project, Huntington Park High School is currently operating at 6020 Miles Avenue, Huntington Park, CA, approximately 0.35 mile southwest of the proposed project site. LAUSD has reviewed the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the proposed project and is recommending that the City ensure that the mitigation measures and management practices related to the specific environmental impact categories that are of particular concern to LAUSD are appropriately designed to substantially minimize, reduce, avoid, or otherwise mitigate for impacts associated with the proposed project. These environmental impact categories include: • Air Quality - The assessment provided in the IS/MND is adequate. The project design features, mitigation measures (i.e. AQ1), and compliance with the appropriate regulatory requirements as outlined in the IS/MND should be appropriate to avoid potential impacts associated with air quality (and greenhouse gas emissions). • Hazards and Hazardous Materials - The assessment provided in the IS/MND is adequate. However, please note that the access routes used by construction related vehicles (which may transport hazards or hazardous materials) for the proposed project may also be used as ingress/egress routes to surrounding schools (i.e. Huntington Park High School). 333 South Beaudry Avenue, 28' Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90017 • Telephone (213) 241-31" • Fax (213) 241-6816 The Office of Environmental Health and Safety is dedicated to providing a safe and healthy environment for the students and employees of the Los Angeles Unified School District.

We appreciate SCAQMD's careful consideration of the project and the comments provided. The City of Vernon has prepared the following responses to the District's comments. Air Quality Analysis The SCAQMD in its comments has asked for an estimate of on -site emissions from localized operations. As outlined in the initial study the site anticipates receiving 151 automobiles and 65 trucks per day. Approximately 340 automobile parking stalls and 50 truck loading and parking positions are being provided at the site. Given the anticipated number of vehicle movements a sufficient number of parking and loading facilities are being provided such that no staging of vehicles will be required other than for a brief period when the vehicle is checking in at the guard shack. As required by California Air Resources Board regulations, vehicles are not permitted to idle in excess of five minutes. As such, drivers should turn off their engines as soon as the vehicle is parked. Forklifts operating at the site will be electrically driven. No other diesel - powered or other types of on -site equipment (e.g. yard dogs) are proposed as part of the project. Vehicle emissions were modeled as part of the initial study and were determined to not have a significant effect on the environment. E�,-ctusive(y Industrial Attached herewith, is a list of gas fired equipment that will be operated at the site. Other than a small boiler (less the 5 mmbtu) and 3 Decon units (which utilize less than 1 mmbtu), all other equipment is electrically powered; the emissions from these units are negligible considering that SCAQMD permits will be required, consistent with the control measures identified in the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP), or the equipment will be exempt pursuant to Rule 219. As part of the wet and dry grinding operations that will be in enclosed areas, dust control devices, including a baghouse, will be constructed at the facility to capture fugitive dust. The plastic molding equipment is exempt from SCAQMD permitting requirements and will produce insignificant emissions. Odors SCAQMD has commented on odor concerns. City of Vernon staff was also concerned with potential odors emanating from the baled plastic storage. As. such, City staff visited two separate facilities where the plastic is sorted and baled. rPlanet will only be processing and storing baled post -consumer Polyethylene Terephthalate —PET plastics. These baled plastics will not be washed or rinsed prior to delivery. The baled PET plastic product consisted of post -consumer water and soda bottles. During the City's inspection no discernible odor was given off by the baled storage. The residue water and beverages appear to be non-putrescible, as such the City found as part of its initial study that no odor mitigation is required. It should be noted that other plastic containers at the recycling facility that was visited, such as milk cartons, which are not PET containers, did have a distinct odor emanating from them. It may be possible that in the future product lines for PET will change to include products that could create potential odors, although that is not foreseeable at this time. As a result of this possibility, the City will be placing the following conditions of approval on the Conditional Use Permit that will be issued by the City: 1) The facility shall be operated in a manner that will prevent unsanitary conditions, odors or other nuisances, 2) The facility shall be operated in such a manner that odors, noise and vibration shall not be a nuisance to neighboring properties. The facility shall comply with all City of Vernon and CalOSHA noise and vibration requirements at all times. If the City in its sole discretion determines that an odor nuisance is caused by the proposed operation additional odor controls shall be installed to the satisfaction of the City and 3) Any process that creates or emits any odors, gases, or other odorous matter shall comply with the standards set by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). These added conditions of approval should satisfy SCAQMD's concerns with potential odors from the site. Site and Circulation Plans A site plan was submitted with the Conditional Use Permit application. The plans shows that truck traffic will generally ingress onto the site from Boyle Avenue on the west side of the property, travel easterly to a guard shack, thence progress to a scale for weighing, then to the loading docks on the east side of the building, once unloaded trucks will travel forward to a second scale on the east side of the building for weighing, then egress from the site onto Fruitland Avenue. Automobile traffic will egress onto the site from driveways from either Boyle or Fruitland Avenues. Trucks are permitted on all streets in Vernon. Vehicle truck routes to and from the site will primarily be: 1) East from the site along Fruitland Avenue, then north on Downey Road, then east on Bandini Blvd. to the I-710, Recycling facilities in the City of Commerce and to the I-5 freeway, 2) West from the site on Fruitland Avenue, then north on Soto Street to the I-10 and SR 60 freeways and 3) West from the site on Fruitland, then south on Santa Fe Avenue, then west on Slauson Blvd to the I-110. None of the routes travel past a sensitive receptor location. The City of Vernon is home to more than 1500 businesses most of which are industrial, trucking and distribution type uses. These businesses typically have goods and materials delivered by trucks creating heavy volumes of truck traffic on the City's streets. The incremental increase caused by rPlanets operation is insignificant in comparison. Lastly, if rPlanet were not to occupy the 302,000 square foot building that is being constructed, the building would be occupied by either a warehouse or industrial use which is permitted by right. According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual a distribution facility would produce many more trucks trips then the number anticipated by rPlanets use. SCAOMD as a Responsible Agency SCAQMD has requested that they be added as a responsible agency to the Environmental Checklist prepared for the Project. The City of Vernon will add the SCAQMD as a permitting agency; however, the SCAQMD is not a "responsible agency" pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15381 because the project does not require discretionary approvals from the SCAQMD . The SCAQMD has also inquired who will be responsible for the two operating permits for the active soil vapor extraction systems on the property. Only one of the two extraction systems is located on the project site. The southerly system is on an adjoining parcel to the south of the project site. The previous property owner, Pechiney Cast Plate, is responsible for the environmental remediation of the site. This remediation work is being performed under the direction of the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). Pechiney Cast Plate will continue to be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the vapor extraction system and associated permits. Lastly, based on the equipment list provided by the project proponent, with the exception of possibly the small boiler, no SCAQMD permits are required for the operations of the facility. However, if in the future equipment is added to the facility requiring a SCAQMD permit, the City has acknowledged that the proponent will be required to obtain permits from SCAQMD prior to installation and operation. If you have any further questions or concern with the proposed project, please feel free to contact me at (323) 583-8811 ext. 245.

The following comments are meant as guidance for the Lead Agency and should be incorporated into the Final CEQA document. Air Quality Analysis In the Draft MND, the Lead Agency proposes to construct and operate a recycling and packaging manufacturing facility. In the Air Quality Section, regional construction and operational activity emission estimates were included but only localized significance threshold impacts for construction were shown. In the Final MND, the Lead Agency should estimate the potential localized operational air quality impacts from all on -site activities for CEQA and SCAQMD permitting purposes. The Lead Agency did not include an estimate for localized operations from on -site activities. Potential on -site emissions include service equipment, mobile source emissions from vehicles operating at the site (entering, idling while arriving at loading/unloading stations, and departing), area emissions, and air quality impacts from permitted equipment. For permitted equipment, the Final MND should include a detailed equipment list with the specific number and types of equipment, fuel sources, and hours each piece of equipment will operate daily. The numbers and types of control equipment should also be described, e.g., the bag houses, cyclones, etc. The amount of daily and annual throughout should also be included. All emission calculations should be documented to show the methodologies, equations, emission factors, etc., used to estimate the on -site equipment emissions and control efficiencies. This documentation can be included in the narration, footnotes, or in an appendix included with the Final CEQA document. Without estimating localized impacts from operations including the potential permitted sources and comparing the estimates with recognized thresholds of significance, the Lead Agency has not demonstrated that these impacts are less than significant. Mr. Samuel Kevin Wilson, 2 October 22, 2015 Director If ISM In addition, the Lead Agency addresses potential odors stating that conditions of approval by the Lead Agency will require that baled plastic bottle material (post -consumer Polyethylene Terephthalate - PET) be cleaned prior to delivery to the project site. It is not clear though if the cleaning refers to only the outside of the baled plastic bottles. Bottles that have residual organic materials inside, even in small quantities, often release odors when the bottles are grinded into flake prior to the dry and wet wash steps. Since that would be a potential odor issue, the Final MND should clarify if the delivery cleaning requirement for material delivered to the site also refers to complete cleaning of the inside of the containers as well. If not, the Final MND should address this potential odor issue in the Final MND. Site and Circulation Plans Next, the Transportation/Traffic section should include the routes the proposed traffic will use to operate to and from the site. The Draft MND estimated approximately 151 total vehicle trips daily including 65 truck trips. The Final MND should include a site plan showing where the proposed building, canopy and equipment within the facility will be located. A site circulation plan showing the flow of in -coming and out -going traffic; loading and unloading areas; and any potential places where queuing could occur, etc., is also recommended. Finally, the vehicle routes for both non -truck and truck traffic should be included in the Final MND. This information will show how the proposed traffic will access the facility from the freeways and surrounding streets (that may include sensitive receptors) mentioned in the Draft MND for the facility site that is expected to operate 24 hours a day 7- days a week. SCAOMD As A Responsible Asenc In the Environmental Checklist under "Other Public Agencies Whose Approval is Required", the SCAQMD should be added as a responsible agency because of its permit granting authority for applicable equipment based on the Draft MND's project description. If the project applicant intends to rely on this MND for issuance of air quality permits, the Final MND should contain sufficient detail in order for the SCAQMD to issue applicable permits. Further, the Lead Agency states that all equipment will be installed and operated in accordance with SCAQMD permits, but permit applications have yet to be submitted to the SCAQMD for the proposed facility. Finally, SCAQMD permit records also indicate that there are two active permits for a soil vapor extraction systems still operating on -site. If the new owner intends to take responsibility for operating the existing permits, change of ownership permit applications would need to be submitted to the SCAQMD. Questions concerning SCAQMD permit requirements can be directed to SCAQMD Engineering and Compliance staff at (909) 392-2504. Mr. Samuel Kevin Wilson, 3 October 22, 2015 Director Please provide the SCAQMD staff with written responses to all comments contained herein prior to the adoption of the Final MND. The SCAQMD staff is available to work with the Lead Agency to address these issues and any other questions that may arise.

If this permit is necessary, project developers will be required to forward copies of final plans and, supporting information for the proposed project to the Districts for review and approval before beginning project construction. For additional Industrial Wastewater Discharge Permit information, go to wastepermit.asp. The wastewater flow originating from the proposed project will discharge to a local sewer line, which is not maintained by the Districts, for conveyance to the Districts' Vernon Extension Trunk Sewer, located in Boyle Avenue just north of Slauson Avenue. This 18—inch diameter trunk sewer has a design capacity of 5.5 million gallons per day (mgd) and conveyed a peak flow of 1.3 mgd when last measured in 2013. Although it is noted that the site has LACSD capacity units, availability of sewer capacity depends upon project size and timing of connection to the sewerage system.

PROTECT ii ERMION rPlanet Erth Los Angeles, LLC (rAlanet Earth) is proposing to operate a recycling facility at 3200 Fruitland Avenue, in the City of Vernon. The proposed project would construct a 302,300 square foot (sf) industrial building and a 35,000 sf exterior canopy on a currently vacant and unpaved site. The site is zoned for Industrial (1) use. The site was previously occupied by Pechiney Cast Plate, Inc., and soil at the site has been remediated under the oversight of the US. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contamination, in addition, Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) contaminated soil is currently being remediated through use of a vapor extraction system. Therefore, a soils management plan and engineering controls plan for potential vapor intrusion into the buildings are required to be approved by the EPA. and Cali fornia Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), respectively, prior to building permits being issued. The proposed project would operate 24 hours a day, 7 days per week., and proposed operations at the site consist of processing recycled material, storing, shredding, and extruding plastics; and sorting of post- industrial plastic scraps: A "Recycling Center" shall not be subject to the Transfer/Processing regulatory requirements of Title 14, California Code of Regulations (14 CCR), if it meets the requirements as listed in 14 CCR. Section 17402.5, otherwise known as the Three -Part Test, Three -Pat Test The first part of the test is that an activity shall only receive material that has been separated for reuse prior to receipt [14 CCR Section 17402.5 (d)(1)]. UNKINAL PRMTEP (IN NV % f'0MCCNSUMER C0N`MNT. PROCESS CHII)RNE FREE PAPER rPlanet Earth Los Angeles, LLC — Initial Study/ Mitigated Negative Declaration October 21, 2015 Page 2 of 3 Separated for reuse material is defined in subsection (b)(3) as follows: "Separated for Reuse" means materials, including commingled recyclables, that have been separated or kept separate from the solid waste stream for the purpose of additional sorting or processing those materials for recycling or reuse in order to return them to the economic mainstream in the form of raw material for new, reused, or reconstituted products which meet the quality standards necessary to be used in the marketplace, and includes materials that have been "source separated.". In other words, the term "separated for reuse" would typically mean the final product sent to a recycling center after being processed by an intermediary (like a transfer/processing facility). "Separated for reuse" recyclable material could also include "source separated" recyclable material. Source separated material is defined in subsection (b)(4) as follows: "Source Separated" means materials, including commingled recyclables, that have been separated or kept separate from the solid waste stream, at the point of generation, for the purpose of additional sorting or processing those materials for recycling or reuse in order to return them to the economic mainstream in the form of raw material for.new, reused, or reconstituted products which meet the quality standards necessary to be used in the marketplace. The term "source separated" means recyclable material that is separated at the point of generation and is sent to a recycler, which is analogous with a homeowner taking his/her recyclables to a recycler. "Source separated" recyclable material does not include "separated for reuse" recyclable material. The second part of the test is the determination that the residual amount of solid waste in the material is less than 10 percent of the amount of separated for reuse material received by weight [14 CCR, Section 17402.5 (dx2)]. The "10 percent residual' part of the testis intended to provide a minimal objective standard to supplement the more subjective fist part of the test (and statute). The allowance for 10 percent residual is recognition of the fact that it is not uncommon for materials that are legitimately separated for reuse to still include minimal levels of contamination. Residual is defined in subsection (b)(1) as follows: (1) "Residual" means the solid. waste destined for disposal, further transfer/processing as defined in 14 CCR, Section 17402 (a)(30) or (31), or transformation which remains after processing has taken place and is calculated in percent as the weight divided by the total incoming weight of materials. The third part of the test is the determination that the amount of putrescible wastes in the separated for reuse material is less than one percent of the amount of separated for reuse material received by weight, and the putrescible wastes in the separated for reuse material shall not cause a nuisance, as determined by the City of Vernon, Health Department, as the Local Enforcement Agency (LEA) [14 CCR, Section 17402.5 (d)(3)]. The LEA staff contact person is Linda Johnson, and she may be reached at (323) 583- 8811 or at bohnsonnci.vernon.ca.us. The "l percent putrescible" part of the test provides additional objectivity to supplement the subjective first part of the test (and statute). The restriction of one percent putrescible wastes is recognition of the fact that putrescible wastes can pose a significant risk to public health, safety, and the environment and, rPlanet Earth Los Angeles, LLC — Initial Study/ Mitigated Negative Declaration October 21, 2015 Page 3 of 3 therefore, any site receiving putrescible wastes should be regulated, The regulation allows up to one percent putrescible wastes rather than taking a zero tolerance stance because it is not uncommon for materials that are legitimately separated for reuse to still include minimal levels of putrescible wastes. For more information regarding the Three -Part Test, please visit the CalRecycle website at the following link: htto!//www calr, voto ca 92YIEA/Advisorie§/58 The LEA is responsible for making a determination as to whether the proposed operation meets the requirements of a "Recycling Center." if the proposed operation is not determined to be a "Recycling Center," then the Transfer/Processing regulations would apply, and additional CEQA compliance may be required. The Transfer/Processing regulations may be viewed at the CalRecycle website as the following link: hitp://www.c*nr gycle.ca.gov/Laws/Regglations/Titlel4/ch3a6htm CONCLUSION CalRecycle staff thanks the Lead Agency for the opportunity to review and comment on the environmental document and hopes that this comment letter will be useful to the Lead Agency in carrying out their responsibilities in the CEQA process.

The process will consist of incoming baled postconsumer PET being delivered to the facility via truck. The bales will then be broken into single bottles that will undergo a series of scans by high tech optical sorters supplemented by human sortation. The resulting clear plastic PET bottles will be grinded into a flake and undergo a series of dry and then wet wash steps prior to being heated to about 200 degrees Celsius and residing in the vacuum decontamination reactors where it is purified to the FDA's requirements for direct food contact (the plant will have the ability to purify the rPET flake to the Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co specs, that are considered to be the most stringent in the industry and exceed those of the FDA). The resulting "bottle grade" flake will then be used to manufacture extruded sheet, thermoformed containers (drinking cups, deli round containers, salad containers, etc.) and preforms (the first part produced in the 2 step process to manufacture PET beverage containers). The finished product will then be moved to the warehouse area within the facility prior to being shipped to their cus to mers rdc—dTNtinf ftL—LAarca.-Thef iIit�-vei to 1V7 with two, -1 2 shifts per day._ This is to advise that the City of Vernon has approved the above described project on November 3, 2015 and has made the following determinations regarding the above described project: 1.
