Document Description
The Riverside County Department of Facilities Management has proposed the construction of a new vehicle washing and fueling facility within the City of Blythe. The project consists of two parcels totaling approximately 0.344 acres. The proposed project would be used by Fleet Services Division of the Purchasing Department to store, refuel, and wash County vehicles. The proposed uses include a duel fuel island with two fuel dispensers with duel fuel, diesel and ethanol (2,500 square feet); car wash and drying area (2,000 square feet); parts room and tire storage (500 square feet); restroom waiting area (650 square feet); office (100 square feet); and three bays (2,520 square feet). Approximately 14 vehicles are anticipated to utilize the proposed gas and wash station per weekday and two vehicles would access the site on Saturdays and Sundays. Total visits per week would be 74 vehicles. The facility would be open seven days a week, 24 hours per day. However, the County will discourage fuel deliveries and the washing of cars between the hours of 10 pm to 6 am to reduce noise impacts on nearby residential uses. In addition, signs will be prominently posted on the site with contact numbers if neighbors have complaints about noise. Fuel pumps and two 12,000-gallon aboveground fuel tanks would be installed to store ethanol and diesel. Approximately 54,000 gallons of fuel would be transported to the site annually (approximately 9,000 gallons of fuel per truck delivery, occurring every two months). The wash station would use recycled water and include an oil/water separator. Security lighting, landscaping, and fencing would be installed. The County will be developing and implementing a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) as part of the proposed project.
