Title

Giacosa Vineyard Conversion Project

Description

The project includes earthmoving activity associated with development of a new vineyard, including installation of erosion control measures as detailed in Erosion Control Plan #02368-ECPA available for review at the Napa County Conservation, Development and Planning Department. Slopes range from 5% to 26%, with an average slope of 15%. No grading would occur on slopes greater than 30%. Grading would consist of land smoothing and ripping, with cuts and fills less than 12 inches, totaling less than 1,000 cubic yards being moved on the site. There would be no off-site spoils. Water is available from an existing well. Erosion control plan #02368-ECPA has been prepared and includes silt fencing, straw wattle sediment barriers, water bars, and permanent no-till cover top. Total area proposed for vineyard project is +/- 2.80 acres on a 5.19-acre parcel on the south side of Oakville Cross Road approximately 700 feet west of its intersection with Silverado Trail. The parcel is located in an Agricultural Watershed (AW) zoning district, with a Napa County General Plan designation of Agricultural Watershed and Open Space and Agricultural Resource. No other projects are anticipated for the parcel at this time.
