Witlvn this Buffer Zone, no waste disposal may occur. The Landfill shall develop an inventory of significant trees within the buffer zone. The preservation of trees within the buffer zone shall be provided for during the construction, operation, and be included in the end use plan to be .submitted for approval by December 3 ~, 207 ~ by the city." At the Planning Commission meeting on Tuesday, February 9, 2010 the Applicant was in agreement with this change in the language. 3. Paragraph 4 (29) Cell 17. The applicant has recently submitted the "Cell 17 Perimeter Berm Base Grades" Plan (dated Febfuaiy 2010) which provides additional engineering design detail for the final landfill cell. The newly submitted plan demonstrates site development to match the approved 2001 Final Contour Plan for the Site. Staff is recommending a revision to paragraph 4 (29) which would require Applicant to Submit additional information to clarify Cell 17 perimeter berm (or south side slope) const~.•uction. 4. Paragraph 4 (30) Alternative Cover. Staff agrees with the Applicant's request to allow alternate cover and recommends adoption of paragraph 4 (30) as proposed. 5. Paragraph 4 (31) End Use Plan. At the Planning Commission meeting on Tuesday, February 9, 2010, the Applicant agreed to provide the City with an End Use Plan by December 31, 2011 since the City Council has not approved an End Use Plan for the site. 6. Paragraph 14 Permit Period. At the Planning Commission meeting Tuesday, February 9, 201.0, Staff recommended changing the language pertaining to the permit period for the CUP. Staff and the Applicant have agreed to omit the language stating "until February _, 2012." Solid Waste Facility License (SWFL) The Applicant's SWFL does not include a section on buffer zone/screening, but does include sections on Cell 17, Alternative Cover, and End Use Plan. Staff recommends the same revisions made on those items in the CUP be made in the SWFL. In addition, the SWFL includes a section (Section 1 (9)) on Dust, Noise, and Odor. Staff and the Applicant have agreed to add language to that section related to odor to include: "The Permitee agrees that it will use best management practices to control against odors. The Environmental Administrator lnay make recommendations regarding possible odor controls. If a verified odor problem is ongoing, both parties agree to institute good faith negotiations to minimise the odor problem. If in the event that the City receives ten or more complaints within asix-hour period relating to a single odor description and this odor complaint has been verified by both City and Permitee and identified as coming from the Facility, the Permitee shall cease such activity(s) that are the direct cause of the odor(s). Normal activity(s) shall not resume until the Perinitee has, to the satisfaction of the City, fully mitigated against such odor(s)."
