This <br />includes the expansion of the active landfill into the previously inactive 21 acre portion of the landfill that runs <br />along the southern portion of the Santa Ana River. In addition to the expansion along the river, the permit <br />revision also increases the permitted rate of disposal at the site. <br />DISCUSSION: <br />The County of San Bernardino Solid Waste Management Department has proposed a Negative Declaration for <br />this project, when in fact the results of the permit revision may have many environmental impacts which <br />adversely affect the quality of life for the residents of Colton. These negative impacts are included in the <br />attached Resolution and include the following: increased traffic and pollution; the creation of additional dust <br />and objectionable odors; and the danger of contaminating the ground water table and the Santa Ana River. <br />FISCAL IMPACT: <br />None. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff recommends that the City Council formally oppose the Colton Sanitary Landfill Solid Waste Facility <br />Permit Revision and adopt of the attached resolution. <br />Report prepared by Daryl Parrish, Acting Assistant to the City Manager <br />Attachments: 2 <br />c: \wpw in\.A62093.age <br />�Ro-!3 <br />
