PMTG2019-00090 Kuhnle Ranch Pipeline Site Major Grading Permit (ED20-117)

Request by Kuhnle Properties Trust for a grading permit to allow for the remediation of approximately 0.87- acres of hydrocarbon impacted soil in four excavation areas. The project will include 5,200-cubic-yards of cut soil and 6,240-cubic-yards of fill soil on two parcels of 234-acres and 642-acres each. The excavated soil is intendedto be direct loaded onto trucks at each excavation location and will be hauled offsite to a permitted recycling/disposal facility. The proposed project is within the Agriculture land use category and is located 200 feet east of 2225 Highway 41, 3 miles south of the community of Shandon. The site is in the Shandon-Carrizo Sub Area of the North County Planning Area. The petroleum pipeline traverses the Kuhnle Ranch property in a northeast to southwest direction and includes an approximately 40-foot wide right of way. Soil excavation actives will be accomplished using conventional construction and earthmoving equipment. During excavation activities, non-hydrocarbon-impacted overburden will be segregated from impacted soil and used to backfill the project site. Impacted soils may be stockpiled onsite temporarily in staging areas near the excavation and moistened or converted as needed for dust and emissions control, and eventually hauled offsite. Temporary safety fencing will be installed as required around any open excavation and will be removed following backfilling activities. Disturbed areas will be seeded with erosion control seed mixture to promote revegetation of the disturbed area.
