Present Land Use
Merced County 2030 General Plan land use designation is Agricultural. Existing zoning is A-1
Document Description
The project would include relocation of several currently permitted on-site facilities and a vertical reconfiguration of the landfill disposal area. The reconfiguration would allow continued operation of the existing landfill for an additional 11 to 15 years without expanding the boundary of the existing permitted facility. MCRWMA also proposes to amend its existing solid waste facility permit (SWFP) to: incrementally increase the maximum daily tonnage up to 3,000 peak tons per day in 2035 and beyond; incrementally increase the allowable traffic up to 800 vehicles per day by 2035; increase the height of the existing disposal area by 50 feet; and add dewatered sewage sludge to the list of wastes.
