Document Description
The applicant of Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-04-014 requests authorization to construct an anaerobic digester lagoon for pretreatment of wastewater sent to the City's sewer system on property located northeast of the corner of East California and South East Avenues. Valley Fig Growers, Inc. Has received a grant from the California Energy Commission to build, as a demonstration project, a fully enclosed anaerobic lagoon digester to pretreat food processing wastewater, reducing the biological oxygen demand (BOD) of wastewater discharged into the Fresno Clovis Regional Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Facility. The 1.8 million gallon anaerobic digester will be installed on an excavated portion of Valley Fig Growers' 15.3-acre property that is south of a railroad spur line. The existing on-site stormwater ponding basin will be relocated, and pipelines and conduits will be installed under the railroad line using an encroachment permit.
