Document Description
Request to expand an existing legal non-conforming (LNC) animal rendering plant located within a 9± acre portion of a 74± acre parcel in the General Agriculture (A-2-40) zoning district. The existing facility consists of approximately 63,623± square feet of structures, tanks, silos, and pipelines, which serve to render beef and poultry animal byproduct, which consists of carcasses, offal, fat, and bone into useable products such as: gelatin, edible fats, feed-grade fats, animal proteins and meals, plasma, pet food ingredients, organic fertilizers, fuel feedstocks, and yellow grease. This request proposes to increase the permitted daily processing throughput from 1,650,000 pounds per day to 1,850,000 pounds per day; construct a new single-story, approximately 25 feet tall, 2,160± square-foot loadout building, which will serve to ship out finished segregated products; construct an 800± square-foot addition to the boiler structure, which cooks down the byproducts by eliminating moisture and separating fats from proteins; install approximately 10,700± square feet of new exterior equipment consisting of silos, fat tanks, to improve processing efficiency and the existing odor abatement system; and provide flexibility for future expansion by proposing an additional 30% increase in structural footprint consisting of a 23,300± square-foot shell building for future utilization. At the time the facility proposes to expand in the future, a Staff Approval Permit will be required to specify the proposed use of the shell structure. The facility is currently regulated by the Stanislaus County Department of Environmental Resources as a Public Water System (PWS) and the site is served by on-site wells for domestic water purposes and an on-site wastewater treatment system for wastewater service. All vehicular traffic to the site takes access off South Carpenter Road via a paved and gated driveway. The facility operates 24 hours per day, seven days per week, year-round with approximately 52 employees working at this location. A maximum shift consists of 12 employees, and minimum shift of six. The requested improvements are anticipated to add up to 10 additional employees for the maximum shift. The facility currently has approximately 140 one-way truck trips (70 round trips) and proposes an increase of 18 additional one-way trips (nine round trips) per day.
