CARLI EXPANSION MINING USE PERMIT

CARLI EXPANSION MINING USE PERMIT

Requested Entitlements 1. An Amendment to a Use Permit to allow surface mining on one parcel totaling approximately 161 acres. The mining activities will disturb approximately 141 acres of the 161-acre parcel. It would also allow an asphalt/concrete recycling plant and a ready mix concrete (RMC) plant to operate at the existing permitted processing plant located adjacent to the Project site. 2. A Community Plan Amendment and Rezone to change the community plan land designation and corresponding zoning for 161 acres from Permanent Agriculture-Extensive (AG-160) to Permanent Agriculture-Extensive with Surface Mining Combining Zone (SM). 3. A Reclamation Plan Amendment to incorporate the Carli Expansion, which includes open space and dry grazing as the end use of the mine. 4. A Development Agreement between the applicant and the County of Sacramento. The project proposal includes amending the existing 1994-0715 (SMA) 52960 use permit to expand the mining operation to include 141 acres of the Carli parcel thereby allowing mining and transport of aggregate materials (sand and gravel) from the Carli site to the adjacent permitted processing plant. The applicant is also proposing to place an asphalt/concrete recycling plant to crush broken concrete and asphalt on the existing processing plant site. This would allow the applicant to import 100,000 tons per year of broken concrete and asphalt from nearby demolition projects. In addition, the applicant is requesting the ability to import 50,000 tons of outside aggregate products per year to mix with existing products to provide to customers. In addition to the asphalt/concrete recycling plant, the applicant is proposing to place a Ready Mix Concrete plant on the existing processing plant site. Approximately 141 acres of the 161-acre site is proposed to be mined and the mining will occur in one mining pit. The depth of the mine is proposed to be 70 to 75 feet below ground surface. The Carli expansion would be mined in two phases. The mining operator has an approved reclamation plan for the existing property being mined and proposes to utilize a new surface area (Carli Expansion Area) which is not included within the existing reclamation plan; therefore, the project includes an amended Reclamation Plan for the Carli expansion. The end use of the Carli Expansion parcel is proposed to be open space and dry land grazing.
