(SL) (File UP97-12) ' Stephen Lucas gave a brief description of the project. Commissioner Leland asked what the concern was with' Mitigation Measure 3 for only two events per month? Mr. Lucas said this measure limits traffic impacts. The applicant has stated that most events would occur in the summer and would like the condition changed to 24 events per year. This was agreeable with staff. Commissioner Mooney asked about not using heavy equipment for two months. Mr. Lucas said the condition is to protect the spawning time for Salmon. Commissioner Mooney said where this project is downstream from the Dam, he would like to see the permit tied to the DWR release figures instead of the 100 year flood plan. Mr. Lucas said DWR has been contacted and is comfortable with this type of use. Commissioner Cage commented on the damage to Pacific Heights Road during the '97 flood. Mr. Lucas said the County will not be in charge of Building permits, HCD will, with regards to construction on-site. Staff requested that the language in Condition 14 be revised with the language in the memo from Land- Development dated 6/23/97. Mark Adams, NorthStar Engineering, said this proposal is to expand an existing recreational use. He said the applicant is on the inter -net and can access DWR release numbers in advance. No storm drainage will be directed towards the river. He requested 24 events a year instead of 2 events a month in Condition 3. He asked that Condition 16 be deleted. He said there are no other curbs, gutters, or sidewalks in the area. He said Mr. Seidenglanz signed a covenant to install infrastructures if they become necessary. Commissioner Mooney said curbs, gutters, and sidewalks, are counter productive in a flood plain. Greg Melton discussed the design of the site plan submitted, stating they wanted a quality development. BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - July 26, 1997 Mr. Seidenglanz gave a quick overview of the pamphlet submitted today. He wants to build a designation.facility.to bring people into the'County. Lisa Purvis Wilson, City of Oroville, said the City is in favor of this project: The hearing was closed. Commissioner Cage asked if the access on Pacific Heights Road Was only from Ophir? Mr. Lucas said access is from both directions, but most people would use Ophir. Commissioner Cage said she is concerned with the Feather River and flooding. Mr. Lucas said there will be ample time to evacuate in times of flooding. It was moved by Commissioner Leland, seconded by Commissioner Cage, and unanimously carried for approval, Condition 14 replaced, Condition 16 revised, as follows: Section 1: Environmental Findings. A. An Initial Study was completed in compjiance with the California Environmental Quality -Act identifying potentially significant environmental effects that the project may have.

BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - July 26, 1997 AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable Chair and Planning Commission FROM: Department of Development Services DATE: June 16, 1997 REQUEST: Use Permit for Steve Seidenglanz on APN 036-510-024 & 030 (UP 97-12): A request for a Use Permit to allow the expansion of an existing R.V. park to include 94 spaces, 20 camping sites, a store/office and a lodge on a 20+/ - acre site zoned LI (Limited Industrial) located between SR 70 and the Feather River on the west side of Pacific Heights Road at 4488 Pacific Heights Road in Oroville. This project is located in Supervisorial District 4. RELATED ITEMS: UP 96-03 approved May 28, 1996 for 7 unit r.v. park and 6 campsites. FOR: Planning Commission Meeting of June 26, 1997 SUMMARY: This application is for a Use Permit to allow the expansion of an existing recreational vehicle (r.v.) park use to include 94 r.v. spaces, 20 camping sites, a store/office and a lodge. The proposed use is conditionally consistent with the LI (Limited Industrial) zoning and is a secondary use in the Industrial General Plan designation. Staff recommends approval with conditions and findings contained in this report. PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS: This project is a request for a Use Permit to allow the expansion of the Riffles Recreational Vehicle Park -to include the creation of 87 new R.V. spaces, 14 new camping spaces, a 1800 sq.ft. store/office, a 4000 sq.ft. lodge facility, a 500 sq.ft. utility structure (kitchen, restrooms, showers, laundry) and a boat ramp. The expanded use will occur on two parcels totaling 20+/- acres located at 4488 Pacific Heights Road in Oroville on the east bank of the Feather River. Parcel 024 is presently developed with 7 R.V. spaces, 6 camping spaces, a 3000 sq. ft. utility building with restrooms, an approximately 1500 sq. ft. utility building, and internal gravel driveways and pads. The parcel is zoned LI (Limited Industrial) with a General Plan designation of Industrial. The R.V Park will operate seven days a week throughout the year with an emphasis on the summer travel season. The proposed facilities are being constructed to accommodate the needs of park patrons and while open to the general public, non -park users are not intended to represent a significant portion of their use. The lodge facility will be available to the general public for receptions, meetings and gatherings on a rental basis. The parcels are bordered on the east by Pacific Heights Road, the Feather River to the west, Surplus City on the south and a vacant lot to the north. Parcel 024 is developed and has no natural features and the proposed development area of Parcel 030 has been significantly modified for flood control and has no significant natural vegetative areas. Both parcels are located within flood zone "A" as depicted on the FIRM map panel 4808. The primary uses in this area are commercial, recreational, and industrial uses. Access to the site is from Pacific Heights Road. The park will utilize private wells for domestic ❑ Butte County Department of Development Services - Planning Division ❑ 1 water. An engineered septic system is proposed that will utilize a septic tank for every six r.v. spaces. The effluent will drain by gravity flow to a lift station where it will be pumped to a recirculation filter and then discharged into multiple absorption fields. ANALYSIS: This project will be a significant expansion beyond the existing seven (7) r.v. spaces and six (6) camping sites currently operating at this location. The existing r.v. park has been continuously operating since the 1970's without any significant impacts. The proposal is a conditional use in the LI (Limited Industrial) zone and a secondary use in the General Plan. There are five areas of concern to discuss including the increased development in the Feather River Floodway, site development standards, compatibility with surrounding land uses, wastewater systems and impacts to wildlife habitat/fisheries. Land Use Compatibility The project site is zoned LI (Limited Industrial) which is the least intensive of the three industrial zone and allowed uses present a minimal likelihood of incompatibility with the proposed use. The Land Use Element Map of the Butte County General Plan designates the project site as Industrial. As an expansion of an existing commercial recreation use, the R.V. park requires a use permit to be consistent with the zoning classification and with the General Plan designation. The proposed expansion will not significantly conflict with the surrounding land uses. The general area is utilized either for light industrial or recreational uses. The land west of the site across the Feather River is open space habitat. Parcels to the north are a mix of undeveloped land under consideration for a similar use by the applicant, a r.v park and a gravel batch operation. Parcels to the immediate east and south are owned by the applicant and are developed with a surplus items business. This business can operate in harmony with the r.v. park with the inclusion of a mitigation measure to require screening between the storage yard and the r.v. park. To further reduce the aesthetic impact between existing uses, the applicant will be required to maintain a permanent sight obscuring eight (8) ft. tall fence along the eastern boundary of the r.v. park that abuts the adjacent surplus storage yard. The fence shall have landscaping planted -and maintained along the west face of the fence that at full maturity, will cover the fence and provide a permanent visual barrier. The proposed use will involve overnight camping facilities that have the potential to create an aesthetic impact in the form of accumulations 'of camping gear, supplies or refuse. Additionally, individuals may wish to stay at the campsites for extended periods of time or even make the campsite a permanent living situation. While this is not expected or characteristic of the applicants current operation, staff has added two conditions to restrict the use of campsites from extended/permanent occupation and to limit the accumulation of camping related items around the campsites. The Commission may wish to further review these conditions and impose a definite length of stay restriction such as a 15, 20, 30, 45, or more day limit. Feather River Floodway The project is located within the floodway of the Feather River and flood zone "A" as designated on the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map or a projec area. The project engineer has indicated that the 100 year flood elevation is 142.5 feet and that all permanent structures including the wastewater recirculation filter, will be constructed one foot above the 100 year flood elevation. ❑ Butte County Department of Development Services - Planning Division ❑ 2 This will be a requirement for a b „ na�mit anri ��u hA onfnrne.�_h 4F►c Buk[U]g Win. Additionally, prior to grading or construction in the 100 year flood plain, a California Department of Fish & Game 1604 Streambed Alteration Permit and an Army Corps 404 permit or exemption certificate must be obtained. The Department of Water Resources which operates the Oroville Dam and controls the water level of the Feat er River, has indicated that the recreational use will not impact the operation or maintenance of the Oroville Dam roject. T e use wi pose no signs scant impact o e ea er Iver oo way or pose 'asignificant hazard to either the proposed structures or the safety of the recreational users on the site becuase the transient use poses no impediment to potential flood waters and the recreational vehicles are readily mobile and can be quickly evacuated from the site if there is a potential for flooding. DWR does comment that the use may be subject to flooding during emergency water releases and that property owner shall sign a hold harmless agreement releasing DWR from fault. The applicant will be required to obtain all necessary permits from DWR for development in the floodway. The use is not likely to pose a significant danger to persons in the r.v. park because of the transient nature_ of the use and the r.v. season is generally between the months of May and September, a.period of time without significant rainfall that may generate an emergency release of flood waters. However, because flood prediction is not an exact science, there may be a risk to park users from rapid or unpredictable flooding. To reduce this potential impact to a less than significant level, the park operator will be required to prepare and maintain an emergency action plan. The plan shall contain a warning method and an evacuation procedure for both persons and property in the event of flooding. Site Development The project will create new impervious surfacing that will increase drainage from the site. All surface drainage from paved surfaces will be directed towards underground infiltration galleries and away from the Feather River. This method will remove the potential for significant water quality impacts to the river and is an accepted Best Management Practice. The project must submit drainage plans for the Butte County Department of Public Works that specify how drainage waters shall be conveyed to the drainage facilities and meet all acceptable standards. The Department of ,Public Works will require urban street improvements along Pacific Heights Road including curb, gutter, sidewalk and the required street section. The DPW will also require the submittal of drainage plans for the project and the establishment of 100 year floodplain elevations as discussed in the Feather River Floodway section above. Caltrans has commented that the use as proposed, will not significantly impact the SR 70 intersection provided the conditions related to the restricted use of the lodge are included in any project approval action. The Butte County Fire Department will require the access road into the r.v. park to be maintained to the 40,000 pound standard, that a pressurized community water system must be installed providing for hydrants every500 feet with a 300 gallon per minute capacity. Wastewater System 0 Butte County Department of Development Services - Planning Division ❑ 3 The Environmental Health Division has reviewed the project and indicated that the area rests upon gravel tailings and may have some difficulty developing a suitable area for sewage removal. The applicant proposes to utilize a wastewater system that will provide septic tanks for each six (6) r.v. sites. The effluent from the tanks will drain by gravity to a lift station where it will e pumped o a recirculation filter and then the treated water will be dispersed to multiple absorption fief rider spaces 62-94 The -recirculation filter/treatment facility will be located above the 1.00 year floodplain and the leachfield area is located above the 10 year floodplain. The entire wastewater system located within the floodplain will be watertight. The wastewater system will be installed under permit from the Environmental Health Division (EHD) and operated under a Waste Discharge Permit from the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). RWQCB requires an annual permit approval based on the submittal of regular water quality monitoring and testing results administered through the EHD. Regular testing of the Feather River for wastewater discharge pollution will also be a conditional requirement of permit approval. Wildlife Habitat The project site is presently developed with a r.v. park characterized by grass ground cover and river cobbles with some natural vegetation along the southern and northern perimeter. The area along the'river frontage has been extensively manipulated for flood control purposes and other permitted development, and as a result, no significant riparian or wildlife habitat is present. The Department of Fish & Game (DFG) was contacted by staff and the applicant's engineer to determine the level of impact to existing wildlife habitat. It was determined that the project does have the potential to impact the salmoid and shad fishery in the Feather River provided that the presence of spawning fish coincide with the construction phase of the project. To mitigate this concern, construction activity shall be prohibited in the river channel during spawning season and a 200 foot setback from the rivers edge shall apply to the use heavy equipment to reduce the impact of ground vibration. The DFG also had concerns related to water quality impacts which were addressed in the Site Development section above and conditioned to provide a mechanism that prevents direct discharge of stormwater run-off into the river. Other Comments The City of Oroville submitted comments concerning the adequacy of wastewater systems, incompatible uses in the vicinity and flooding impacts. These issues have been clearly discussed in the sections above and should have no significant impact. The Butte County Airport Land Use Commission reviewed the project for compatibility with the air operations at the Oroville Municipal Airport. It was determined that the use would. not have a significant impact to the airport and no additional conditions were recommended. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION: This application has been defined as a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and as such, is subject to the requirements of CEQA. An Initial Study has been prepared by County staff. Based upon the a review of the Initial Study, staff has determined that the project will not pose any significant impacts.and a Negative Declaration has been prepared. ❑ Butte County Department of Development Services - Planning Division ❑ 4 PUBLIC NOTICE AND COMMENTS: This application requires that a public hearing be advertised and held. Public notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300 foot radius of the subject property. As of the date of this report we have received no public comments.

An Initial Study was completed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act identifying potentially significant environmental effects that the project may have. Provisions and the design of the project and the conditions .added to. the project will mitigate such effects to a level of insignificance; and B. Affected local, state, and federal agencies provided additional information regarding potential environmental impacts and these potential impacts related to fisheries, wildlife habitat, water quality, flooding, and site development have been considered and have been determined to be less than significant with the inclusion of mitigation measures and conditions of project approval; and B. The Planning Commission has independently reviewed, analyzed, and considered the proposed Negative Declaration with mitigation measures prior to making its decision on the project, and the Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgement of Butte County; and Section 2: Zoning Ordinance Findings. A. _The proposed use of the property will not impair the integrity and, character of the zone in which the land lies in that the LI zoning allows commercial recreational uses as conditional uses and permitted uses in the zone do not create a definitive incompatibility with the operation of a recreational area. Within the zone similar recreational uses are located in the immediate area that do not have a history of incompatibility; and B. The proposed increase in use would not be unreasonably incompatible with, or injurious to, surrounding properties in that the project is conditioned to reduce associated impacts to a level of insignificance that are similar to existing conditions in the area and similar recreational uses are located in the immediate area that do not have a history of incompatibility; and C. The proposed increase in.use of the property would not be detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood, or to the general health, welfare and safety of the residents of the County in that the request is consistent with the existing use on site and will be conditioned to reduce associated impacts to a level of insignificance.

Applicant and/or Project Name: Use Permit - Steve Seidenglanz B. Project No. (If applicable) and AP No.: APN 036-510-024 & 030, File #97-12 C. Address of Applicant and Representative (if applicable): 4514 Pacific Heights Road, Oroville, CA 95965 D. Project Description and Location: This project is, a request for a Use Permit to allow the expansion of the Riffles Recreational Vehicle Park to include the creation of 87 new R.V. spaces, 14 new camping spaces, a 1800 sq.ft. store/office, a 4000 sq.ft. lodge facility, and a 1500 sq.ft. utility structure (kitchen, restrooms, showers, laundry).. The expanded use will occur on two parcels totalling 20+/- acres located at 4488 Pacific Heights Road in Oroville on the east bank of the Feather River. Parcel 024 is presently developed with 7 R.V. spaces, 6 camping spaces, a 3000 sq. ft. utility building with restrooms, an approximately 1500 sq. ft. utility building, and internal gravel driveways and pads. The parcel is zoned LI (Limited Industrial) with a General Plan designation of Industrial. The parcels are bordered on the east by Pacific Heights Road, the Feather River to the west, Surplus City on the south and a vacant lot to the north. Parcel 024 has no natural features and the proposed development area of Parcel 030 has been significantly modified for flood control and has no significant natural vegetative areas. Both parcels are located within flood zone "A" as depicted on the FIRM map pa6el 4808. The primary uses in this area are commercial, recreational, and industrial uses. Access to the site will be from Pacific Heights Road. Additional project description and area description can be found in the data sheet at the end of this document. II. EVALUATION'OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Earth. Will the proposal result in: Unstable earth conditions or changes in geologic substructures? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not require any significant excavation or other subsurface alteration of the earth. Therefore, the project will not create any unstable earth conditions. or result in changes to geologic substructures. Mitigation: None required. b. Disruptions, displacements, compaction or overcovering of the soil? Yes No X Maybe Response: This proposal may result in some soil disruption, displacement, compaction and overcovering of the site as a result of development of additional gravel parking areas, the creation of an additional mobile home pad, and the installation of landscaping. This overcovering will represent a minor percentage of the property and will not impact the character of the site or result in any significant soil impacts because the soil profile is characterized by extensive cobbles and shallow soils. Mitigation: None required. Substantial change in topography or ground surface relief features? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal to allow an additional mobile home pad and six camping spots will not significantly affect topography or ground relief features because the property is level and the project will not require any significant alterations to ground relief. Mitigation: None required. 0 Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ E Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 d. The destruction, covering or modification of any unique geologic or physical features? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project does not involve the alteration of the property in any significant physical or geologic manner because the proposed use will utilize existing site improvements and only minimal surface improvements will be necessaryto accommodate the proposed uses. The site is presently developed and no unique geologic or physical features exist. Mitigation: None required. e. Any substantial increase in wind or water erosion of soils, either on or off-site? Yes No X Maybe _ Response: The proposal is not expected to cause any substantial erosion of the soils because the project will utilize existing site improvements and no new development is proposed that would result in significant soil disruption. Considering the site is level and the ground surface is primarily gravels and grasses, conditions that would lead to erosion are not found on the property. Mitigation: None required Changes in deposition or erosion of beach sands, or changes in siltation,deposition or erosion which may modify the channel of a river or stream or the bed of any lake? Yes No X Maybe Response: The site is not directly affected by any watercourse, however, the Feather River is located approximately 250 ft. to the west of the site. The proposed project will not create any excessive or significant erosion concerns that might impact the Feather River and the site is physically separated from the river by a gravel embankment located on the adjoining parcel to the west. Mitigation: None required. g. Loss of prime agriculturally productive soils outside designated urban areas? Yes No X Maybe Response: This project site does not contain prime agricultural soils. Mitigation: None required. h. Exposure of people or property to geologic hazards such as earthquakes, landslides, mud -slides, ground failure, or similar hazards? Yes No X Maybe _ Response: The Butte County Seismic Safety Element does not indicate any faults in the area and the risk of ground rupture in the event of a seismic event is remote. However, all of Butte County is still classified as a Moderate Earthquake Intensity Zone %nil and potential ground shaking is possible. Any new structures proposed and all existing structures were required to conform to Uniform Building Code standards which provide adequate protection to occupants in case of seismic activity. Mitigation: None required. Air. Will the proposal result in: Substantial air emissions or deterioration of ambient air quality? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect air quality because the increase in the number of vehicle trips is not expected to be significant. The expected of number of vehicle trips generated from this increase in use will be approximately 15 to 20 trips per day of use. This is not significant because the applicant anticipates the use of the camping facilities will occur primarily on weekends and during the summer months. The cumulative annual impact of the traffic generated by this use is incremental compared to the average daily traffic counts found on SR 70. Furthermore, the Butte County Air Pollution Control Plan does not address air quality impacts of small ■ . Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ 2 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 developments or limited uses of property for possible mitigation measures. Mitigation: None required. The creation of objectionable odors? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal to allow overnight camping facilities and an additional mobile home site will not create objectionable odors, smoke or fumes. Mitigation: None required. c. Alteration of air movement, moisture, temperature, or any change in climate, whether locally or regionally? Yes No X Maybe Response: Only large projects such as the construction of a large high-rise buildings, the creation of a large water body (such as a lake or thousands of acres of rice fields), massive defoliation, or introduction of large tracts of vegetation where there was previously none, would have the climactic effects discussed in this question. Since this project has none of these characteristics it will not result in any change in air movement, moisture, temperature, or climate. Mitigation: None required. 3. Water. Will the proposal result in: a. Substantial changes in currents, or the course or direction of water movements, in fresh waters? Yes _ No X Maybe Response: There are no water bodies located on the project site that could be impacted by the proposal. The Feather River is located approximately 250 ft. east of the project site along the western boundary of a contiguous parcel, however, the river is physically separated from the project site by both the parcel and a gravel levee/embankment. The project will have no impact on the river. Mitigation: None required. b. Substantial changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, or the rate and amount of surface runoff on-site or into any water body? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project will not involve the development any new structures or any substantial alteration of the site. The current circular driveway/parking area is paved and the overflow parking area is gravel and the parcel has significant vegetative cover that will remain. Absorption rates will not be significantly affected and no significant drainage impacts will occur off-site. Mitigation: None required. c. Need for off-site surface drainage improvements, including vegetation removal, channelization or culvert installation? Yes No X Maybe Response: No off-site surface drainage improvements are needed because the project will not involve the development any new structures or any substantial alteration of the site. The project will utilize existing paved and graveled parkingareas and all additional parking areas will be gravel and the parcel has significant vegetative cover that will remain. A substantial increase in runoff is not expected to be generated by the project. Mitigation: None required. d. Alternations to the course or flow of flood waters? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project site is located in the Feather River designated floodway. The project site is physically separated from the river by a contiguous parcel and by a gravel levee/embankment. The project was circulated to the Department of Water Resources and the Army Corps of Engineers for any potential problems or comments. ■ Butte County Development Services Department a Planning Division ■ 3 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 At this time neither agency has forwarded any concerns about, or objections to this project. The project will involve the development of one additional mobile home site and six camping spots, only the mobile home could pose any obstruction to the flow of flood waters. The one mobile home is not significant in comparison to the six mobiles located on the site at present. No additional structures or any substantial alteration of the site that would affect the flow of flood waters are proposed. Mitigation: None required. Discharge into surface waters, or in any alteration or surface water quality, including, but not limited to, temperature, dissolved oxygen or turbidity? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposed project will not discharge any drainage or other effluent into any watercourse. No development is proposed that would cause any earthen disturbance that would result in increased erosion into any water body. Mitigation: None required. Alteration of the direction of rate of flow of ground waters? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect the direction or flow of ground waters because the water needs of the proposed use will not be substantial and water availability is not a problem in this area. Mitigation: None required.. Change in the quantity of ground waters, either through direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations? Yes No X Maybe Response: See response in 3f. Mitigation: None required. Substantial reduction in the amount of water otherwise available for public water supplies? Yes No X Maybe Response: A substantial reduction in public water supplies will not occur as a result of project approval. Mitigation: None required. Exposure of people or property to water related hazards such as flooding? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project site is located within 250 feet of the Feather River and is physically separated from the river by an adjacent parcel and a gravel leveelembankment. The Feather River is capable of flooding during periods of heavy or sustained rains which may result in substantial emergency water releases from the Oroville Dam complex. Comments received from the Department of Water Resources indicate that the project will have no impact on the operation or maintenance of the Oroville Dam Project. DWR does indicate that the applicant- should pplicantshould be aware of river water surface fluctuations. In such an event the proposed use could be easily evacuated and the potential loss of property associated with this request would be limited to one mobile home and camping equipment. As further protection from flood hazards, the use of the property will be primarily in the summer months and not during periods of sustained rains when flooding potential exists. The applicant will be required to obtain approval and permits from the State Department of Water Resources for development within a floodway prior to operation of facilities. Mitigation: 4. Plant Life. Will the proposal result in: a. Change in the diversity of species, or number of any native species of plants (including trees, shrubs, grass, crops and aquatic plants)? Yes No X Maybe 0 Butte County Development Services Department z Planning Division ■ 5 E Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 Response: The property is presently completely improved and without any native vegetation that could be impacted by the proposed expansion of the use. Mitigation: None required. b. Reduction of the numbers of any unique, rare or endangered species of plants? Yes No X Maybe Response: See item 4a. Mitigation: None required. c. Introduction of new species of plants into an area of native vegetation, or in a barrier to the normal replenishment of existing species? Yes No X Maybe Response: The site is without any native vegetation that might be impacted by landscaping or any introduction of non-native plants. Mitigation: None required. d. Substantial reduction in acreage of any agricultural crop? Yes No X Maybe Response: The site does not contain any agricultural crops and is presently developed with a mobile home park. Mitigation: None required. Animal Life. Will the proposal result in: Change in the diversity of species or numbers of any species of animals (birds, land animals, reptiles, fish, shellfish, benthic organisms or insects)? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not result in a substantial change in animal habitat because the site has been completely cleared of native habitat and replanted with grass and shade trees. The proposed increase in use will not cause any significant impacts to the animal life in the area. Mitigation: None required. b. Reduction of the numbers of any unique, rare or endangered'species of animals? Yes No X Maybe Response: See response in item 5a. Mitigation: None required. c. Introduction of new species of animals into an area, or in a barrier to the migration or movement of animals? Yes No X Maybe . Response: This project will not introduce domestic pets or other new species into the area. Mitigation: None required. d. Deterioration to existing fish or wildlife habitat? Response: See response in item 5a. Mitigation: None required. Noise. Will the proposal result in: Substantial increases in existing noise levels? Yes No X Maybe Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposed expansion of the mobile home park to include an additional mobile home site and six camping sites will not create any substantial increase in noise levels in the area. Mitigation: None required. ■ Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ 5 A Exposure of people to severe noise levels? Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 Yes No X Maybe Response: The project site is located approximately 200 ft. from SR 70 where vehicular traffic traveling at the posted speed limit creates a noticeable level of noise, however, this noise level is not severe and is primarily concentrated during day time hours and not at night when park users are more likely to be sensitive to noise. Mitigation: None required. Light and Glare. Will the proposal produce substantial new light or.glare? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposed use is not expected to create any substantial light or glare because no intensive lighting is present on-site or proposed. Mitigation: None required. Land Use. Will the proposal result in a substantial alteration of the present or planned land use of the area? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not alter the land use in the area because the use is merely an expansion of the existing mobile home park area. The project site is zoned LI (Light Industrial) which allows commercial recreational uses with a use permit and is designated by the Butte County General Plan as Industrial. The proposed project conforms to both the general plan and zoning. Mitigation: None required. Natural Resources. Will the proposal result in: Substantial increase in the rate of use of any natural resource? Yes No X Maybe Response: This project will not utilize or cause to be -utilized any substantial amounts of any natural resource. Mitigation: None required. b. Substantial depletion of any non-renewable natural resource? Yes No X Maybe Response: See the discussion for item 9a. Mitigation: None required. 10. { Risk of Upset. Will the proposal involve: a. A risk of an explosion or the release of hazardous substances (including, but not limited to, oil, pesticides,chemicals or radiation) in the event of an accident or upset conditions? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not involve significant use of hazardous materials, nor is located close to any facilities which store or utilize any substantial amounts of such materials. Mitigation: None required. Possible interference with an emergency response plan or an emergency evacuation plan? Yes No X Maybe Response: There is an adopted emergency response plan prepared for the operation of Oroville Dam and impacts down stream along the Feather River. The proposed use will not add any significant population concentrations or vehicular traffic that might impede the implementation of the plan. The Department of Water Resources which regulates releases from the dam has indicated that this' project will not impair any existing plans. Mitigation: None required. ■ Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ 0 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 11. Population. Will the proposal alter the location, distribution, density, or growth rate of the human population of an area? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not significantly affect the population of the area because the proposed project will allow only one additional mobile home/recreational vehicle site that may be occupied by a permanent resident(s). The overnight camping sites will not affect population densities. Mitigation: None required. 12. Housing. Will the proposal affect existing housing or create a demand for additional housing? Yes No X Maybe Response: This project will not result in the creation of new parcels for residential development. One additional mobile home site will be added, but this will not impact housing needs. Mitigation: None required. 13. Transportation/Circulation. Will the proposal result in: a. Generation of substantial additional vehicular movement? Yes No X Maybe Response: The expected of number of vehicle trips generated from this use will be between 15 and 20 trips per day of use. This is not significant because the applicant anticipates using this site primarily on weekends and during the summer months. The cumulative annual impact of the traffic generated by this use is incremental compared to the average daily traffic counts found on SR 70. The additional traffic generated by this project will not significantly affect the level of service on SR 70 or Pacific Heights Road. Caltrans was contacted for comment and none was received. The applicant has been in contact with Caltrans and indicates that they are satisfied that the use will not impact SR 70 at the intersection of Pacific Heights Road. Mitigation: None required. b. Effects on existing parking facilities or demand for new parking? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect parking because compliance with the parking standardscontained within Butte County Code Section 24-35 will be enforced. The property has enough space to accommodate all parking requirements. Mitigation: None required. Substantial impact upon existing transportation systems, including public transportation services? Yes No ' X Maybe Response: This project will not affect the existing transportation system because the use will generate only 15 to 20 vehicle trips per day which will not cause any significant impacts. Users of the facility are also not likely to utilize public transportation. Mitigation: None required. d. Significant alterations to present patterns of circulation or movement of people and/or goods? Yes No X Maybe Response: See response in item 13a. Mitigation: None required. Alterations to waterborne, rail or air traffic? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project is not located near any railroads, harbors, or airports and will therefore have no effect on those facilities. ■ Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ 7 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 Mitigation: None required. f. Increase in traffic hazards to motor vehicles, bicyclists or pedestrians? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal may result in an incremental increase in traffic and related traffic hazards in the area. However, as discussed in item 13a, the number of vehicle trips is not anticipated to be significant as to cause any substantial traffic hazards to motor vehicles, bicyclists or pedestrians. Mitigation: None required. 14. Public Services. Will the proposal have substantial effect upon or result in a need for new or altered governmental services in any of the following areas: a. Fire Protection? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project is located in an area of low fire hazard and the site itself is without any flammable vegetation. The addition of one more mobile home site and six camping spots will not generate any significant fire response impacts. Outdoor burning or campfires will be regulated by existing regulations for outdoor burning established by the Butte County Fire Department/CDF. Mitigation: None required. b. Police protection? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposed use is not expected to generate a significant impact to the ability of the Sheriff's Department to provide police services in the area because the number of people involved will not be excessive. Mitigation: None required. c. Schools? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect the demand for school services in the area because the one additional mobile home site and six camping spots will not generate a significant number of school age children. Mitigation: None required. d. Parks or other recreational facilities? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not result in an increase to demand for park and recreation facilities in the area, but will add to the availability of such facilities. Mitigation: None required. e. Maintenance of public facilities including roads? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not result in a significant increase in the need for maintenance of roads and other public facilities in the area. Mitigation: None required. f. Other governmental services? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not result in a significant increase in demand for all other governmental services in the area. Mitigation: None required. 15.

Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 Response: The project will not require the use of substantial amounts of energy. Mitigation: None required. b. Substantial increase in demand upon existing sources of energy or require the development of new sources of energy? Yes No X Maybe Response: The project is located in and area that is already served by Pacific Gas and Electric, which forecasts energy consumption of their service area and provides for future facility planning. As noted in item 15a above, the proposed use will not use substantial quantities of energy. Mitigation: None required. Utilities. Will the proposal result in a need for new systems or substantial alterations to the following utilities: a. Power or natural gas? Yes No X Maybe _ Response: Pacific Gas and Electric already has distribution lines in the area and can serve the energy requirements of this project without substantial alteration to existing facilities. Mitigation: None required. Communication systems? Yes No X Maybe Response: Pack Telesis already has distribution lines in the area and can serve the communication needs of this project without substantial alteration to existing facilities. The cost of extending new service lines may have to be borne by new residents. Mitigation: None required. c. Water? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposed use will utilize public water systems provided by the California Water Service. The California Water Service is capable of providing treated water to the site to meet anticipated needs. Mitigation: None required. d. Sewer or septic tanks? Yes No X Maybe Response: The site is presently served by individual septic systems and the Environmental Health Division (EHD) has indicated that any expansion of the system on site will be required to meet the standards of the Regional Water Quality Control Board and the EHD. Mitigation: None required. Storm water drainage? Yes No X Maybe _ Response: The project will not generate a significant increase in storm water runoff as discussed in item 3b. The area is not served by any storm drainage system. Storm water runoff is directed according to the topography of the site to natural drainage channels.

Solid waste and disposal? Yes No X Maybe Response: Currently, the Butte County Landfill still has capacity to serve the additional waste that may be generated from this project. There is no mandatory garbage pick-up service required in the rural areas of the County. The applicant may choose to transport their own refuse to the land fill. Mitigation: None required. ■ Butte County Development Services Department jr Planning Division ■ 9 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 17. Human Health. Will the proposal result in: a. Creation of any health hazard or potential health hazard (excluding mental health)? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not create any health hazard. Mitigation: None required. b. Exposure of people to potential health hazards? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not expose people to any health hazard other than the possibility of flooding as discussed in item 3j. Mitigation: None required. 18. Aesthetics. Will the proposal result in the obstruction of any scenic vista or view open to the public or will the proposal result in the creation of an aesthetically offensive site open to public view? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal is not likely to result in an aesthetically offensive view because the project site is landscaped and kept in a clean and organized manner. Areas to be utilized by the project are generally not within public view.. However, it is possible that the long term camping may result in the outdoor accumulation of supplies and/or refuse that may become aesthetically offensive. To remove the possibility that this scenario may result, conditions will be added to the Use Permit to ensure the orderly development of camping sites and to prevent the outdoor storage of camping gear, supplies or refuse. Mitigation: None required. 19. Recreation. Will the proposal result in an impact upon the quality or quantity of existing recreational opportunities? Yes No X Maybe _ Response: The proposal will not result in an impact on the quality or quantity of existing recreational opportunities in the area, but will add to the existing recreational opportunities. Mitigation: None required. 20. Cultural Resources. Will the proposal result in the alteration of or the destruction of a prehistoric or historic archaeological site? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect archeological sites because no new construction or earth disturbance is proposed and the site has been completely cleared and developed. Mitigation: None required. b. Will the proposal result in adverse physical or aesthetic effects to the prehistoric or historic building, structure or object? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect historic sites because no such sites exist in the area proposed for use. Mitigation: None required. c. -Does the proposal have the potential to cause a physical change which would affect unique ethnic cultural values? Yes No X Maybe Response: The proposal will not affect cultural resources. Mitigation: None required. d. Will the proposal restrict existing religious or sacred uses within the potential impact area? Yes No X Maybe ■ Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ 10 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 Response: The proposal will not affect religious resources. Mitigation: None required.® ■ Butte County Development Services Department Ar Planning Division ■ 11 Project: Seidenglanz, File #96-03 III. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. 1. Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? Yes No X Maybe Response: As discussed in Section II of this document and more specffically subsections 3,4, & 5, this project will not significantly degrade the quality of the environment. 2. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the disadvantage of long-term, environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time while long- term impacts will endure well into the future.) Yes No X Maybe Response: The project, as discussed in Section II and Subsection (s)1 - 4 of this Initial Study, will not result in short-term benefits of the expense of impacting long-term environmental goals. - Does the project have impacts which are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (A project's impact on two or more separate resources may be relatively small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the environment is significant.) Yes No X Maybe Response: This proposal will not have a significant cumulative impact on the environment. 4. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Yes No X Maybe Response: As discussed in Section II of this Initial Study, this proposal will not have a significant adverse effect on human beings.. IV. DETERMINATION On the basis of this initial evaluation: X I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project COULD HAVE a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described herein have been added to the conditions of approval for the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. .

Lucas: ' As requested, we have reviewed Steven Seidenglanz' plans for the Riffles RV Park and Campground. The Department of Water Resources supports the concept as outlined in Mr. Seidenglanz' preliminary plan. Mr. Seidenglanz is aware that the proposed campground is in the Feather River Flood Plan, and Oroville Dam is a Flood Control Dam. As a condition of our support we must not be inhibited from making required flood control releases from Oroville Dam, or be held responsible for damage to this campground or the people utilizing it as a result of those releases. We will continue to work with the Oroville community in developing recreation projects that will improve recreation opportunities at Lake Oroville. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me at (916) 534-2323, or Dave Ferguson at (916) 534-2346. Sincerely, Rolland Williams, Sr., Chief Oroville Field Division Division of Operations and Maintenance cc: Steven Seidenglanz Current Tourism Ex-penditu'res' Since most areas are interested in tourism for its economic potential, it is useful to have background information on the size and scope of the industry in Northern California. What is the overall tourism economy in Northern California? How much money is changing hands? What types of tax revenues are being generated by traveler expenditures? These questions are the foundation of this section of the Strategic Marketing Plan. 76iirism Expenditures Table 2 summarizes 1993 California Travel Impacts by County for the 18 counties that are included in whole or in part in the study area. 1,993 -in Butte -County; for example, $196.4 million in -total spending created a payroll of X36 7 rciiliion and g ne-fated:3,061 jobs: Local �.ti tax receipts were $1..8 million and state ta,c recerpts`were $9.fi million (California Travel Impacts, 1995). This data in this table provide a "snapshot" of the current situation and can be used as a baseline against which future changes can be evaluated. Eleven of the eighteen counties listed in Table 2 fall in their entirety within the area of the Strategic Marketing Plan. Portions of seven other counties are also in the area. Taken together, a little more than two billion dollars in travel spending occurred in 1993. Over 33 thousand people were employed as a consequence of these expenditures and almost 28 million in local tax revenues can be traced to travel spending. It is important to note that three of the counties with larger expenditures (Lake, Mendocino, Nevada) fall only partially within the area of the Plan. On the other hand, Shasta, Humboldt aiid Butte counties, all approaching or exceeding two hundred million in 1993 expenditures, are completely within the area of the Strategic Marketing Plan. Another way to analyze Northern California travel impacts is to view them by type of business and type of accommodation. Tables summarizing these data appear in Appendix IV. Planners can use the data in this Appendix to calculate the percentage of travel expenditures in each sub -category. Percentages can be monitored for changes used to compare a county with other comparable counties. A careful examination of the tables and expenditure categories may reveal some interesting opportunities. TOT (Transien Occupavary Tpx; Funds Tourism Marketing. Some of the more proactive cities and counties use TOT funds for tourism marketing. Almost $14 million dollars in Transient Occupancy Tax (or TOT) was collected in the 18 counties that make up the study area (See Appendix lam. Transient Occupancy Taxes are collected on traditional forms of lodging such as hotels, motels, bed and breakfast establishments and resorts. In some counties, camping operations also pay TOT. Originally intended to create a revenue stream for tourism marketing, in recent years, TOT funds have also been used for infrastructure m2uatenance and other general fund purposes. Recent tourism marketing ' expenditures in Monterey County seem to demonstrate a striking correlation between marketing effort and increased tourism vi.sitt.`ion and call into question the practice of using TOT for other than marketing purposes. ' STRATEGIC MARKETING PLAN FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TOURISM AND OUTDOOR RECREATION 14 1 Table 2. 1993 Califor at Travel Impacts By County (Counties In The Geographic Region' Of The Strategic Marketing Plan) The TOT data are important, but need to be interpreted with caution. A large percentage of the total visitor expenditures is occurring outside the lodging sector, the only place TOT ie collected. Consequently, TOT figures under -represent the value of tourism in communities and counties with high day use and private home percentages. In addition, TOT percentages range from county to county and within a given county. Often these figures change between years so direct comparisons are not appropriate. Finally, the thoroupliness of TOT collection varies from county to county. Taken together, the expenditure data and the TOT numbers illustrate the economic importance of the tourism service sector and also serve to illustrate the employment capacity and potential of a strong tourism plank in the local economic platform Planners can make use of these data to interpret the economic benefits of tourism to local residents and policy makers. It is important to remember that services, though important economically, do not draw visitors into an area. Attractions, and correspondingly, the marketing of these attractions, draw people to an area.

A large percentage of the total visitor expenditures is occurring outside the lodging sector, the only place TOT ie collected. Consequently, TOT figures under -represent the value of tourism in communities and counties with high day use and private home percentages. In addition, TOT percentages range from county to county and within a given county. Often these figures change between years so direct comparisons are not appropriate. Finally, the thoroupliness of TOT collection varies from county to county. Taken together, the expenditure data and the TOT numbers illustrate the economic importance of the tourism service sector and also serve to illustrate the employment capacity and potential of a strong tourism plank in the local economic platform Planners can make use of these data to interpret the economic benefits of tourism to local residents and policy makers. It is important to remember that services, though important economically, do not draw visitors into an area. Attractions, and correspondingly, the marketing of these attractions, draw people to an area. STRATEGIC MARKETING PLAN FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TOURISM AND OUTDOOR RECREATION 16 Northern California Tourism Economies 1 Before leaders in any community or area can get started in advancing their efforts to attract 1 more tourists, they need tounderstar_d their potential. Just as it would probably be foolish to start a surfboard shop in Elko, Nevada, it would also be foolish for an area to develop a tourism marketing plan which did not have realistic goals and expectations. In Northern. California there 1 seem to be eight types of tourism economies. Sometimes an area may fit into two or three of these types of economies, but for the most part, there is one overpowering economy that fits that area best. With each of these types of economies, there are specific opportunities relating to the type ' of economy and any attempt to ignore these opportunities when developing or marketing an area can often be unproductive and unsuccessful. These eight economies are briefly described below. 1 ATTRACTION/RECREATION TOURISM ECONOMIES are based on the presence of one or more attractions or recreational activities which draw or can draw visitors to a specific area. COASTAL TOURISM ECONOMIES are based on our never ending attraction to the power 1 , of the sea. In Northern California the rugged California coastline attracts millions of people each year. CORRIDOR/SERVICE CENTER ECONOMIES are based on the positioning of a ' community along a commonly traveled corridor. Service Center economies are often located at the crossroads of two or more important corridors. Besides relying on their positioning on a corridor, these economies depend on a variety of businesses working ' together to provide a unified and complete product for travelers or tourists. iiiGfA�TEWAY-TOLTMSM;�ECONOM MS are based on the proximity of a community to an attraction or area of attractions. -The community itself may have -very little that would 1 draw a tourist, but its proximity to attractions is appealing. LAKE TOURISM ECONOS y be one of the simplest to understand in that the strengths of the local economy may fluctuate with lake levels and how the lake is ' perceived,by_potential visitors. RIVER TOURISM ECONOMIESaze very similar to lake economies. They are relying on one particular natural resource product as a keystone to attract travelers or tourists. ' Because of the diverse activities on rivers (e.g. fishing, rafting) there often are very different types of business operators attempting to make a living based. on that river. RELUCTANT TOURISM ECONOMIES are usually based on either an area in transition or several factions in a community pushing in opposite directions. 1 CHALLENGED TOURISM ECONOMIES are usually in transition going from a particular attraction that was popular at one time, and is no longer popular, or changes in our ' society as far as the use of a.particular resource. An isolated community can be categorized as a challenged economy due to its remoteness. In Table 3 the Focus Group areas are identified by primary and secondary type(s) of tourism economy. This framework reappears to organize the Tourism Planning Considerations in the Recommendations section. of the this report. 1 STRATEGIC MARXETING PLAN FOR.

STRATEGIC MARRETniG PLAN FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TOURISM AND OUT -DOOR RECREATION 21 Northern' California Tourism Needs At each Focus Group meeting we asked participants to identify the attractions, services and/or *' experiences to be maintained as demand increases. An overview of these data is included in the Northern' California Tourism Needs At each Focus Group meeting we asked participants to identify the attractions, services and/or infrastructure developments needed to improve visitor experiences or to allow high quality visitor experiences to be maintained as demand increases. An overview of these data is included in the following pages. The top needs across the North State are identified in Table 9. To aid the reader in interpreting the data, needs are,grouped into the following categories: Marketing, Transportation, kiir ation Infi a�striiciiu e; Accommodations, Services and Infrastructure, and Centers, Attractions and Gatl:iering Places. ' The most important needs are presented in a spatial arrangement in Figure 4. Many more needs were identified than were prioritized into the top three. Table 9 includes almost all of the improvements generated through. the Focus Group process. Only a few, infrequently mentioned ' items are not included in the Table. The complete list of needs from each Focus Group meeting can be found in Appendix III. In this Appendix, all the various needs (and attractions) that were identified by the Focus Group participants in each community are reproduced as they were written or stated in the meetings. As these needs are reviewed., keep in mind that the tables represent a record of what was listed during the Focus Group meetings. Not every need is equally important or deserving of attention. Nevertheless, by examining these needs, tourism planners can gain greater insight into the tourism development and marketing needs as perceived by residents in local communities. Marketing Needs Many marketing needs were identified through the Focus Group meetings. If these marketing ' needs could be summarized into two or three statements they would be: 1) the need for unified, cooperative, comprehensive marketing 2) the need to expand the distribution of information (both materials and points of visitor coritact), and, 3) the need to improve .;ignage into and around rural communities. Signage is identified as a very important need by three of the Focus Groups and noted as an important need by another 13 groups for a total of 16 areas (69.5%) reporting the :geed for improved signage and/or directions to attractions. Maps and brochures (17 areas/73.9%) are the most needed marketing tools. Closely related is ' the need for improved information distribution (12 areas/52.1%). Developing interpretive themes is recognized as a need by over half (13 areas/56.5%) of the Focus Groups as is increased information and interpretation of existing attractions (17 areas/73.9%). General marketing is reported as greatly needed by four Focus Groups and needed by another seven. Along these same lines, a total of 13 areas (56.5%) report a need for targeted marketing (and four prioritized this need as among the three most important) and specialized marketing for groups (12 areas/52.1%). There is growing recognition of the need for cooperative marketing (8 areas/34.7%) and coordinated actions (14 areas/60.8%), perhaps because many are reporting the need for more ' STRATEGIC MARKETING PLAN FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TOURISM AND OUTDOOR RECREATION 27 r u 1 { o t *C r 14 ' ' ��- •�� $ ry✓ `'''•' q - t P�. i• fir.?,.: �.x r ..

These corridors are divided. into both xiorth-south routes and east-west routes. Figure 5 is a spatial presentation of the major transpoi-tation'cerridors in Northern California.. f. INTERS'T'ATE'5`f's the'must significant corridor in Northern California since it carries tens of thousand of cars daily. Most of these cars are enroute to or from somewhere outside Northern California and often have little impact on the actual tourism economy of the area. . One of the most problematic aspects in our region is the lack of understanding of the traffic on this highway and the potential for capitalizing on the significant number of people who are traveling this route with discretionary t� Interstate 5 can be valuable not to just the communities located along itXbut also to communities within an hour's drive and along the"�majo east-west'corridors from Interstate 5. If_A community can get just 100 people "a'day of tli 'r' uiterstate ii5to the community, it wily nean'more HUE" miliion dollars in:addx onal�•tounsm ndmgTto thAt`cominuru � � Two major"California Welcome Centers are currently planned for Interstate 5 in Northern California. With the completion of these centers, far more potential visitors will learn about what exists to the east and west of Interstate 5. These centers are to be located just south of the Oregon border at Colliers rest area and just south of Redding in the community of Anderson. HIGHWAY 101 is the most important highway to the North Coast since most visitors to the North Coast arrive via Highway 101. The continued improvement of this highway is of major importance to the North Coast and the potential for businesses in close proximity to it is significant. The state TODS signage program, described in Appendix I, could have a significant impact on these businesses as people on 101 are made aware of what businesses he in very close proximity to this highway. HIGHWAY 395 AND HIGHWAY 89 seasonally provide an important routing for travelers going from the northwest to cities such as Reno, Las Vegas and Salt Lake City. This is a "shortcut" and the prosperity of towns such as Alturas, Susanville, Chester and Quincy are tied to these two route-s. Better marketing of these routes will certainly accomplish wonders for the communities along it and understanding how to do this will be important. Just as there are three major north-south routes through Northern California, these east-west routes play a lesser role but they are absolutely necessary to get travelers into the areas between the major north-south routes. These routes usually connect all three of the major north-south routes and therefore provide the potential traveler with a variety of circular routes throughout Northern California. CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY 20 is an east-west route that cuts virtually across the entire state. Starting at Highway 101 at Ukiah, this route goes through Clear Lake, Williams, Yuba City, Marysville and all the way to Nevada City. This route is often taken by individuals coming from points to the east via Interstate 80 and attempting to get to the North Coast. It is a logical way to avoid the congestion of the Bay Area when traveling from the east to visit area of the North Coast. HIGHWAY 36 to the west of Interstate 5 is a seldom traveled route that offers a great way to see much of the remoteness of Northern California. To the east of Interstate 5 it is the main route into the area of Chester/Lake Almanor and on to Susanville. It is a major crossover getting from the central of the Sacramento Valley into the areas of Plumas and Lassen Counties. HIGHWAYS 299/44 are the crossroads of Northern California. Located in Redding, California, these two routes, 44 to the east and 299 both east and west, are the-major crossover from Eureka to Redding and on to Lassen Park, Burney and Alturas. HIGHWAY 96 AND 97 provide a diagonal route that goes from the eastern side of the Cascades all the way down to 299 at Willow Creek. This routing is often chosen to get from the eastern part of the Cascades to the North Coast. This route follows the scenic Klamath River and offers travelers an incredibly beautiful drive from the California coast into the Oregon interior. STRATEGIC MARKETING PLAN FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TOURISM AND OUTDOOR RECREATION 34 • Resist the impulse to just take anything. While the development "stakes" and land costs are low, authorize zoning ordinances to protect your resources, particularly your waterfront and watershed. It is far easierjo preserve your. na;tural;resource and cultural heritage than it is to reclaim it. Preserving authenticity through the current dismal economic situation, is difficult, but important. 16cr lusiori'- " Effective tourism development in rural areas needs a resource/attraction base, the support of area leaders and a catalyst for action. We have the attractions. We need leadership, partnerships, research, visitor services and marketing to expand our rural tourism industry. Using these tools, rural leaders and planners can develop more profitable and sustainable rural tourism systems. The future for Northern California's travel and tourism economy is promising because of the incredible number of uncrowded attractions, its proximity to the diverse and financially affluent California population, and the increasing desire by the traveling public to "get away from it all." Northern California vacation opportunities offer relaxed settings, the authenticity of the old west and America's rural lifestyle, and the huge array of outdoor recreational and heritage tourism opportunities that are unique to Northern California. This study has identified the large and diverse number of attractions which exist in Northern California, the desires of the people and how they feel they fit into this future tourism economy, and increased our understanding of the various types of tourism economies that exist in Northern California.

Dan Camey Manager, Public Relations Media Relations Specialist (703) 620-6003 ext. 304 (703) 620-6003 ext. 306 RV TRAVEL, IS ON THE RISE TMS SUA04ER E RESTON, Va. -- No, it's not your imagination; you are seeing more recreation vehicles (RVs) on the road this summer. A survey by Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) shows RV owners plan to travel significantly more this summer than last. On average, RVers say they will travel a total of 3,000 miles this summer, while last year at this time they reported plans to travel only 1,800 miles. Half the respondents said they expect to take more RV trips this summer than last and another one' -third will travel as often as last year. They expect to spend a total of 30 days in their RVs this summer. The RV travel figures were gathered via the "Campfire Canvass," a semiannual nationwide survey of RV owners tabulated by Robert Hitlin Research Associates, Inc., Vienna, Va. In their summer travels, RVers say they expect to: • Take frequent spur-of-the-moment trips (84 percent); • Take trips on holiday weekends, including July 4th (53 percent) and Labor Day (46 percent); : , • Celebrate special occasions, like family birthdays (64 percent) in their RVs; • . Grill a total of 34 hot dogs. "RVers' travel plans are being boosted by soaring consumer confidence brought on by a strong economy, low fuel prices and low interest rates," said RVIA President David J. Humphreys. t t � -more- r t RECREATION VEHICLE INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION 1896 Preston White Dr. . P.O. Box 2999 . Reston, VA 10195.0999 . 703/610.6003 • fax: 703/620,5W 1 1 1 Page 2 -- RV Travel Is on the Rise the Summer "RV travel is also being spurred by heightened awareness resulting from an industry -wide market expansion program that includes national television and print advertising targeting baby boomers," he said. One-third of survey respondents reported they are first-time RV owners. Forty percent of survey respondents plan to travel with their children this summer. Their top five educational destinations are: • Gettysburg, Pa. and other civil war battlefields • Washington, D.C. • The Grand Canyon • Yellowstone National Park • Williamsburg, Va. In general, state parks are the top destination planned for this summer, with 69 percent of respondents headed there. Most RVers plan to visit national parks and beaches this summer too. National parks will attract 58 percent of RVers, and 52 percent will go to beaches. "RVs have been described as 'condos on wheels' because they provide the comfortable, convenient surroundings of home in all kinds of settings," said Humphreys. "Taking an RV trip eliminates the hassles of crowded summer airline flights and full hotels," he said. A free introductory videotape on RV travel is available by calling 1-888-Go-RVing. More detailed information, including a free booklet on "Choosing & Using Your RV," and a directory of RV shows, publications, rental sources and clubs, is available by writing RVIA, P.O.

The Use Permit (Use Permit 97-12) was approved by the Planning Commission on July 26, 1997. On October 20, 1999, a one-year extension was granted by the Planning Division for the Use Permit, with a new expiration date of September 16, 2000. On July 24, 2000, a letter from Mr. Seidenglanz was received requesting a two-year extension. Our file does not show a response to this request and it appears that Use Permit 97- 12 became void on September 16, 2000. For the RV park use to now be established would require the approval, by the Planning Commission, of a new use permit. I hope this answers your questions. If you have any questions/comments please let me know.

I do know that a project isn't a good project unless it can stand on its own feet. I don't want to be just another supervisor. I want to make a difference." :;, Beeler describes his first year as a supervisor as "learning how to reach and get something done when there are no handles on it. Being a politician is like being in a puzzle. You're in the center of a hub with spokes going out." One of those spokes reaches out to Steven Sidenglanz, the man behind The Riffles R.V. Park, located off Pacific. Heights Road. The park fronts on the Feather with. views across the river to the lush Oroville State Wildlife River. Sidenglanz envisions the park as a center for special events for Oroville residents, which a group picnic pavilion .and barbecue, a patio for special events (weddings, reunions, banquets) next to the lodge, a bocce ball court near the public boat launch, and a special service that will rent canoes and pick up the canoers at the Gridley boat ramp. "We don't have public access to this river worth a darn," he.says. Sidenglanz, plans the develop- ment in three phases, with the riverside restaurant opening last. "I want to start off with special events so we can learn how to ser- vice people," he says. "So many places are forced to open too soon without the proper ..training for their personnel." A snack bar restaurant is planned for the front of the proper- ty. "It will seat 48 inside and 54 outside." The park will have 94 spaces for R.V.ers and 20 camping sites. All will have electrical hookups and telephone cables. Sidenglanz, who owns the military museum next to the planned RV park, believes internet access is neces- sary for travelers in the coming decades. "We've put a lot of energy into creating a place for people to come," he says. Young trees — 174 of them — have already been planted. "We planted trees that will give varieties of colors throughout the year. In a few years they will be beautiful. Sidenglanz' attention to detail is such that he bought photographs of each of the trees before choos- ing them. "I wanted to know what they would look like.". Sidenglanz says he has invested around $70,000 in the project so far and is looking for another $1 million in financing. The miniature train — like the one at the now closed Nut Tree that has carried countless families through the walnut orchard there — will have one terminal at the R.V. park. The train is the project of Tom Steed of Steed Precision Manufacturing. Steed is restoring an old engine worth around $75,000 and has purchased two new engines at $150,000 each that he has partial- ly completed building. The trains, which are about half the size of a regular train, have cars that are 12 feet long. They will hold 12 chil- dren or eight adults. "We'll have 10 to 15 cars on a train," says Steed. His train yard also includes the materials for a diesel switcher, which will be used to lay the tracks. "This is a perfect place to have a train," says Steed. "You couldn't find a better place to do this. The river is so scenic. I've lived here for 25 years, and I've never seen the area where the train will run." The river front east of town is locked off with a gate and is owned partly by the Department of Water Resources, California Department of Fish and Game and the Bureau of Land Management. Beeler's tour took us along the dirt road through the area (he has a key to the gate), and it is truly exquisite and unspoiled. "I call it the Jurassic Park of Oroville," says Beeler. "I wanted to do something for the community_ tnn_" cave gtppri "It started off, I was going to build the train. Now it's really grown. We can use 100 to 150 people to help build the train. There's the potential of job training and jobs later. We'll have outside people coming in to ride the train. They can see and share this beautiful area without endangering it." Two of the engines are old time steam locomotives. The older engine has been decked out in red and black paint, but the trains may end up gaily colored with yellows and greens. Steed's next project is to find enough old mining rail for the train. Before long we can expect to hear that lonesome whis- tle blow! Beeler, who has found land for his third project, farming for the Hmong community, has a dual purpose in looking for land in Palermo. "I need to take care of some of the drug problems in Palermo. If you have people work- ing [on the farms] instead of old cars- and grass, it cleans up the neighborhood." Beeler concludes by saying, "We're in the middle of changing the mind "set up here. It all depends on the public. Do we really want to do it? We have the tools right here, and we can do it through public enterprise. I feel like I'm sitting on a bubble we're so r ncP " ;G y °OurT�.° INTER -DEPARTMENTAL MEMORANDUM ° ° °uNs y, OFFICE OF BUTTE COUNTY COUNSEL co T0: LParilo, Development Services Director Mike Crump, Public Works Director BY: Susan Minasian, County Counsel SUBJECT: Letter from Steven Seidenglanz DATE: 11/10/98 Enclosed for your review and file is a copy of a letter dated October 26th from Mr. Seidenglanz.

Michael'Crurrip, Director Public Works, for misrepresentation under the Butte County Code, Section 15 -II. 1 believe that you are aware that I have two letters from Mr. Crump. authorizing that road, with the only limitation being its elevation to not exceed. that of Pacific Heights Rd. Of course it is in my best interest to not have the County file any more misdemeanor charges against me regarding this dispute, as they had in the past. After you had explained to me that the Board of Supervisors had previously determined that they wished to comply with FEMA Regulations so that our county was eligible for flood insurance I began to understand your position, and it seems to me a very positive. thing for our community. Based upon that mentality, I have tentatively agreed to comply with the engineering requests for the road, based upon the fact that there is the high probability of a global resolution of our disputes which would include either an easement or purchase of the contiguous property to the South of us. I am estimating that the engineering that you have requested will be completed by the end of this week. I will keep you advised. Kind a , c.c.

Officer (Date) DEC 10 '98 02:36PM CA WATER QLTY., RDG. , P.9i9 INFORMATION SHEET MR. STEVEN SIEDENGLANZ THE RIFFLES RV PARK BUTTE COUNTY Mr. Steven Siedenglana has proposed to develop an RV facility and restaurant on property adjacent to the Feather River in Oroville. The Discharger's property is in, Section 25, T19N, ME, MDB&M. The Discharger has proposed the development of 97 RV spaces along with a restaurant and laundry. Total estimated wastewater flow will be 12,000 gallons per day. The Discharger has proposed a recirculating gravel filter for initial wastewater treatment prior to disposal to leachfields. The recirculating gravel filter will collect effluent from septic tanks placed throughout the park. Each septic tank. will serve from 4 to 6 RV spaces and will vary in volume from 1,000 gallons to 5,000 gallons. The filter will serve to produce an effluent of less than 30 mg/l in BOD and suspended solids. The pretreated wastewater will then be discharged to one of two leachfields, each constructed with 1,2501ineal feet. The Discharger has performed wet weather testing to demonstrate that the leachfields should not -be affected by high groundwater. In addition, percolation testing in the area of the leachfields has demonstrated that the percolation rate of the soil in the area of the leachfields is an average of 6 to 7 minutes per inch, with only one test showing a rate faster than 5 minutes per inch. Soils are generally sands and silty sands. All leachfields are at least 100 feet from the 10 -year floodplain. Surface water drainage in the area of the proposed RV park is to the Feather River.

ASSISTANT COUNTY COUNSEL, NEIL H. MCCABE CHIEF DEPUTY COUNTY COUNSEL. DAVID M. MCCLAIN ROBERT W. MACKENZIE BRUCE S. ALPERT Josiassen, County staff remaining on a positive. The purpose of this letter is to memorialize the understanding reached at yesterday's meeting. You agreed to file for a development permit, and have already (pursuant to our telephone conversation yesterday) contacted your engineer, Mark Adams. You have indicated that the engineering plans which must' be submitted to the County in order for you to apply for a development permit for your road, will be completed in two weeks. These plans will include a hydrologic analysis because the road is in the flood plain. As we discussed, the County must circulate your permit application to several state and federal agencies for comment before it is acted upon by us. These agencies include the State Reclamation Board, Department of Water Resources, Fish & Game, and the Army Corps of Engineers. These agencies are given a defined period of time to comment and those comments are considered by the County in its decision on your permit. Please make sure your engineer provides sufficient copies of plans and supporting documentation for each agency.(two sets for each, including the County, for a.total of ten sets). Our office will do everything possible to see that this process is handled well.- Only legitimate concerns raised by .these agencies can be. considered. O. 1Ir . Steve Seidenglan _10ctober 13, 1998 Page 2 In addition, Supervisor Beeler will be working with the Administrative Office to facilitate a sale to you of an easement for -the portion of your road which is located on County property or the entire parcel of County property, depending on what is agreed upon by you and the County.

In order to complete my submittal to the State for the construction permit I need clearance from a number of agencies including the County Planning Department. The most important item that I need is a copy of the recorded Use Permit, which I already have. However, we also need you or someone from your Department to sign off the attached form allowing the construction permit to be processed. You will note that it is possible .to require a final review from your department prior to final approval from the State for occupancy of the completed improvements. If you check this box, please note in the comment section the specific items that you want addressed or that you will be reviewing for the final approval. Please remember that we must have this form before we can submit our plans to the State for processing through the piancheck procedure that is relatively lengthy. The Stste will not even accept our plan submittal until we have a signature from your department. Let me know if there are any items that must be dealt with before you can sign the form. We are requesting similar signature approvals from the following agencies: Butte County Department of Public Works Butte County Health Department Regional Water Quality Control Board California Department of Water Resources 20 DECLARATION DRIVE CHICO, CALIFORNIA 95973 916-893-1600 .

Dear Mr. Seidenglanz: In your letter of July 7, 1997 you requested clarification as to the approved site plan for the recently approved Riffles RV Park & Campground.. During the public hearing you presented the Riffles R.V. Park Master Site Plan and Illustrative Site Rendering to the Planning Commission as exhibits detailing the intended use of the site. These exhibits were considered by staff and approved by the Planning Commission as the accepted site design which included the proposed 94 RV spaces, 20 camping sites, a store/office, lodge, boat ramp and several open pavilions. With respect to the size of the individual structures, the staff analysis considered the suggested square footage of these improvements to gain a perspective as to the probable intensity of use. It is understood that the acceptance of the proposed structures as proposed did not formally restrict or dictate the specific size, dimensions or design of the structures, but rather anticipated their construction in a manner proportionately consistent with the Master Site Plan. As with all approved use permits, minor changes are considered at the administrative level should your basic design require alterations.

We have concluded that the County will not be issuing development permits on this property. The utility plans will be reviewed and approved by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and they will issue development permits for construction within a flood plain controlled by the State Department of Water Resources (DWR) Oroville Dam. HCD Should be established as the controlling agency for determining if the development conforms to County and Federal regulations. We recommend revising condition No. 14 to read as follows: 14. This project lies within an identified Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood plain, as shown on Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Panel B for Community 060017. The County of Butte, as a participating community, has adopted Chapter 26, Article IV, Flood Hazard Prevention, of the Butte County Code in compliance with Federal regulations. Issuance of permits to develop Mobile Home and Recreational Vehicle Parks is controlled by the State Department of Housing and Community Development, subject to use permit issued by the County of Butte. To absolve the County of Butte of any liability resulting from issuance of permits by the State of California, all development within the flood plain should be in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations and Butte County Code, Chapter 26, Article IV, Flood Hazard Prevention. The State of California shall assume full liability for any exceptions or variances granted to said codes.

Existing Design Flow - Approx. 1,000 gpd Proposed Wastewater System - Septic tanks, lift station, recirculation filter, and " absorption trenches. Septic tanks will be provided for every six RV spaces. The effluent . from the tanks will drain by gravity to the lift station where it will be pumped to the recirculation filter (constructed above the 100 -year flood elevation). The treated discharge from the filter will be dosed to multiple absorption fields located under spaces 62 through 94. This area has been tested (percolation tests and soil profiles) and has — acceptable soils for the remaining treatment required to protect the groundwater resource. This area is located above the 10-yeaz flood elevation. Proposed Design Flow - 12, 000 gpd FLOODING The 100 -year flood elevation has been determined to be elevation 142.5. This elevation was established from data provided by Water Resources, the City of Oroville, and actual flood elevation data from the February 16, 1986, flood. Permanent structures will be constructed one foot above the 100 -year flood elevation. TRAFFIC Discussions with Caltrans staff indicated that an RV Park of this size would not generate significant impact on the adjacent intersections with Highway 70. In particular there would be no significant impact upon the existing Pacific Heights Road intersection at Georgia Pacific and Highway 70. Specifically, no additional improvements would be required at this or any other intersection with Highway•70.

Unfortunately, I don't have much applied experience in fisheries investigations, therefore I cannot perform the task ("access impacts on the Feather River fishery, particularly salmoids and shad") you require. Although my professional opinion is that the impacts will be minimal if any at all because most salmon or processed at the CDFG hatchery and very little natural spawning occurs, I could not quantify that statement. My areas of expertise include avian ecology (long and short term monitoring of avian.populations), wildlife monitoring and management, wetland delineation, restoration and management, stream ecology, and . riparian restoration. Currently, I don't feel comfortable involving myself in projects which_ require a knowledge of fisheries biology. I have included a resume which details the kinds of experiences that I have been exposed to. In addition, I have included a brief list of references. I have worked with private parties in the agricultural community with regards to.compliance with environmental regulations and I can. give you a list of those reference if you require it.

First of all, we have learned that this letter was prepared without the benefit of an actual visit to the site. According to Mr. Snowden, he was given a very limited amount of time to respond and simply tried to list all possible items that may be of concern when a project is proposed for a location along the banks of the Feather River. Mr. Snowden has now had a chance to visit the site and his level of concern has changed significantly. Based on our conversations with Mr. Snowden as well as others with Fish and Game we propose the following responses to. this letter and the five items of concern: . . j Water quality impacts to the Feather River. There are two sources of potentially significant negative impact to the water quality of the adjacent river. The first is storm water runoff from the surface of the developed site, particularly the paved areas. To mitigate this concern we propose to grade all paved areas away from the river and towards underground infiltration galleries. This method of storm water management is an accepted Best Management Practice, or BMP, for storm water quality control and will eliminate any concern regarding the possible negative impact on the water quality in the river. The second potentially significant source of negative impact to.the water quality in the river is from the increase of sewage wastewater disposal. To mitigate this concern we propose to use proven wastewater treatment and disposal technology to assure only high quality discharge to the soil. No wastewater, either treated or untreated, will be discharged to the river. In addition, the main treatment facility will be located above the 100 -year flood elevation. All facilities will be set back an appropriate distance from the river. Extensive monitoring facilities will be installed and the system will be operated under Waste Discharge Requirements from the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Systems that operate under this type of permit are required to submit regular monitoring and testing results to maintain the annual permit approval. Regular testing of the river water can be included as a condition of this permit approval. 20 DECLARATION DRIVE CHICO, CALIFORNIA 95973 916-893-1600 FAX -893-2113 May 15, 1997 Riffles RV Park and Campground Page 2 of 3 2. Impacts on the Feather River fishery, particularly salmoids and shad. The only potentially significant source of concern from a project such as this is from the actual construction process and activity during the periods of time when these fish are present in the river and attempting to spawn. The best way to mitigate this concern is to limit construction activities during these times. No construction shall be allowed to take place within the river channel during this period of time (none is proposed), and .the use of heavy equipment that causes vibrations should be restricted in.the vicinity of the river. A setback of two hundred feet is suggested to mitigate this concern. 3. Losses of riparian wetlands. There is no proposal to remove any riparian wetlands or habitat. Because he was unable to visit the site prior to preparing the letter, Mr. Snowden was unaware that the site has been clear of riparian vegetation for many years and that there are no wetlands on the site. The site has been in use as a legally permitted RV park and campground for many years. In our phone conversation after he visited the site, Mr. Snowden acknowledged that he no longer had a concern regarding this impact. 4. Impacts on the sensitive species known to occur in the immediate area, including State - and Federally -listed species. Again, because there is no riparian vegetation on the proposed development site, such as the elderberry, and there is no proposal to remove any such vegetation, there is no impact. 5. Cumulative, direct, and indirect impacts on all affected habitats. Given the discussion above regarding specific impacts together with the general environmental review of this project by all other agencies, it can be stated that this project will have no cumulative, direct, and indirect impacts that are not properly addressed and mitigated. Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions or if you require any additional information.

We have comments regarding five general aspects of the proposed development: Wetlands and/or stream course alteration - Water quality certification is required for any project which impacts waters of the State (such as streams and wetlands). Impacts include, but are not limited to; stream crossings, the modification of stream banks or stream courses, and the filling or modification of wetlands. The Certification must be obtained prior to construction. Failure to obtain certification, when required, may result in enforcement action. Storm Water - A construction activity Storm Water Permit is required for storm water discharges associated with a construction activity where clearing, grading, and excavation results in a land disturbance of five or more acres. Storm water discharges from a construction activity that results in a land disturbance of less than five acres, but which is part of a larger common plan of development, also requires a permit. The construction activity Storm Water Permit must be obtained prior to construction. Failure to obtain a permit, when required, may result in enforcement action. Solid Waste Disposal - The disposal of solid waste from this development may have an impact on water quality and public health. Therefore, the applicant must submit a solid waste disposal plan which conforms to the regional or county master plan and contains adequate provisions for solid waste disposal for complete build -out of the development. Construction Dewatering - If improvements such as sewer, or other utility installation require dewatering of any excavation, a general NPDES dewatering permit must be obtained. This office may be contacted to obtain the. forms for this permit if necessary. Wastewater treatment and Disposal - Sufficient information must be provided by the applicant to enable evaluation of the treatment and disposal options in relation to conditions in the area such as local ground and surface water hydrology and soil types and depths. Potential impacts or benefits which must be addressed include contamination of ground and surface waters, protection of public health, generation of vectors and nuisance conditions, such as odors, and short-term impacts during construction, such as accelerated erosion. A septage disposal plan must also be considered since the homes in the development will all be on septic tanks. Mr. Steve Lucas • 2 23 July 1997 Riffles RV Park The consultant for this project has submitted an information package covering many of the above concerns. We have determined, however, that winter groundwater monitoring will be necessary for this site before approval of the proposed septic tank-leachfield system. After this information has been supplied we will determine it's adequacy. After review of the data, staff may decide to recommend adoption of Waste Discharge Requirements. If such a decision is made, the applicant will be notified and given the appropriate forms (Report of Waste Discharge) to initiate this process. Note that a complete Report of Waste Discharge and filing fee must be submitted at least 120 days before any wastewater will be discharged. Because of the amount of wastewater flow from this project, and because of the current agreement between Regional Board staff and Butte County, this project requires formal approval by Regional Board Staff.

Again, because there is no riparian vegetation on the proposed development site, such as the elderberry, and there is no proposal to remove any such vegetation, there is no impact. 5. Cumulative, direct, and indirect impacts on all affected habitats. Given the discussion above regarding specific impacts together with the general environmental review of this project by all other agencies, it can be stated that this project will have no cumulative, direct, and indirect impacts that are not properly addressed and mitigated. Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions or if you require any additional information.

Staff recommends the Commission find the project consistent with the Oroville Airport Land Use Plan. FOR: Airport Land Use Commission Meeting of January 15, 1997. SUMMARY: The County of Butte is presently processing the above mentioned project and has submitted a comment sheet and map to ALUC for review and comment. Staff recommends the Commission find the project consistent with the Oroville Airport Land Use Plan. ANALYSIS: This Butte County project is a Use Permit located between SR 70 and the Feather River, at 4488 Pacific Heights Rd., Oroville. The applicant purposes an expansion of the existing "Riffles RV Park" to include 94 R.V. spaces, 20 camping sites, a store/office, and a lodge. The project description was referred to the Airport Land Use Commission staff on November 13, 1996 for comment as part of the routine Request for Comments, and the Commission must respond within 60 days. Staff review consisted of land use compatibility and noise sensitivity as indicated below. Based on this data, staff informed the Butte County Planning Division that the project was tentatively found to be compatible with the adopted Oroville Airport Land Use Plan and would receive a formal ALUC recommendation at its January 15, 1997 meeting. Land Use Compatibility Staff reviewed the request pursuant to the currently adopted Oroville Airport Land Use Plan (OALUP). The project site is located outside of the Oroville Airport overflight zone as depicted in Exhibit 1 on page 13 of the OALUP. Based on this data the project site is not in an area where the proposed use would be incompatible with the Oroville Airport due to its distance from the Orov.ille Airport. Noise Sensitivity The project site is located outside of the 55 dB CNEL noise contours as depicted in Appendix 2 of the OALUP. ■ Butte County ■ Airport Land Use Commission ■ Based on this data qthepproject site is not in an area wh a the proposed use would be incompatible with identified noise level contours. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Butte County Airport Land Use Commission find that the proposed Butte County Use Permit #97-12 (Seidenglanz) on APN 036-510-024 & 030 is consistent with the Oroville Airport Land Use Plan subject to the following findings and recommended conditions in attached Exhibit "A". If the ALUC would like to take additional action on this project it would be limited to a recommendation to the Butte County Planning Commission that although the project is consistent with the currently adopted Oroville Airport Land Use Plan, the ALUC does have additional concerns. This recommendation would only be advisory and would not require any overriding findings to dismiss. Attached: A: Findings B: Locatiori Map KAP LA N N I N G\A L U CUA N 97. MTG�S E I D E N G.

Once these items are submitted, we will consider the application complete and will continue processing the project immediately. 1. In consultation with the Environmental Health Division, it has been determined that there is insufficient information available to properly assess the suitability of your on -site -sewage disposal system. The EHD must have soils tests, percolation tests and sewage disposal plans in sufficient detail to determine their acceptability for this project. Please submit detailed sewage disposal plans showing leach fields and improvements related to the sewage disposal system. /2. The Butte County Fire Department has indicated a need for a secondary access to Pacific Heights Road. Please identify on the site plan where this access will be proposed. 3►31q, -Tc e.K. ..,/3.. Caltrans has indicated that there may be impacts to SR 70 from the proposed boat ramp, convenience store and lounge because these facilities will be open to the general public. Planning staff has these same concerns and requests more detailed information concerning the public use of these facilities including the hours of operation, services provided (especially the use of the lounge) and anticipated employee staffing. Some of these commercial "open to the public" uses may not be acceptable in the Limited Industrial Zone which has no provisions for non -recreation commercial uses. Uses may be. limited to those necessary to serve the recreational vehicle park only. O Ja. Provide preliminary building plans for the lounge and office/store in order for staff to assess the size and configuration of these structures with respect to the needs of the recreational vehicle park. 4. The map submitted does not show the 100 year flood elevation and has no information concerning the flood plain on -the project site. All related flood data should accompany the application and be shown on a separate map as this issue will be of significant importance when evaluating the project. M� Map does not clearly indicate the number and location of parking spaces and does not indicate the surfacing of these improvements or there dimensions. odgeti 6. The boat ramp shown on the map is indicated to be for public use. Has this ramp been approved for use by the Department of Fish & Game and Department of �WfA �� , Water Resources?

CALIFORNIA 95965-3397 TELEPHONE: (916) 538-7601 FAX: (916) 538-7785 I received your letter of July 2, 1996, and appreciate the thorough background information you provided. It is clear that you have provided all of the necessary items to meet the conditions of your Use Permit established by the Butte County Planning Commission. You have indicated that you have two areas of concern that are as yet unresolved and would like additional action to occur. These areas are; (1) the refund of your appeal fee; and (2) the application of hold harmless agreements and naming Butte County "also insured". As for the refund of your appeal fee, Butte County has a no refund policy in the Appeal Ordinance. The fee is collected and the appeal is processed accordingly. The response provided you from Mr. Lucas would be correct provided that the appeal had not been heard by the Board and no time had been spent on the appeal by either.this Department, Administration, or other County department. As for the conditions regarding the signing of a hold harmless agreement and naming Butte County as also insured, these conditions are not applied to all use permit approvals, but only to those the Planning Commission feels represent a potential for future conflict. You may have a. valid concern regarding the equal application of these conditions and we will consult with the County Counsels office for further discussion. I will keep you informed of any developments regarding the discussion of these conditions and appreciate your concerns. If I can offer any further assistance please contact my office at 538-7601.

COMMENTS: The 94 RV sites and 20 tent sites should not have any significant traffic' impacts at the 2 State Route (SR) 70 intersections in this area, however, the proposed convenience store, boat ramp and lodge could have significant impacts since they would be open to the public. The extent of public use should be limited so that no significant impacts would be expected. Limiting the number of public boat ramps and the number and/or size of special occasions at the lodge should be considered. - If these uses are not limited, the applicant should be conditioned to obtain an Caltrans Encroachment Permit and construct a right -turn lane for southbound traffic at the Georgia Pacific Way/SR 70 intersection. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact Tern Pencovic, Inter Governmental Review/CEQA Coordinator, at (916) 741-4199. Sincerely, E. A.

Lodge - Meeting room for RV groups (this is necessary to get the highest listing with RV groups such as Good Sam) & available for special occasion (weddings, receptions, meetings, etc.) rental by the general public. Parking will be available for the general public. RV Hookups - The RV spaces will have full utility hookups (water, sewer, electric, TV, Etc.) and an RV dump station will be provided. Restrooms - Restrooms, showers, laundry, will be provided as required by Title 25. Boat Ramp - The existing boat ramp will be available for use by the general public for a fee. Parking will be available for vehicles and boat trailers. WATER SUPPLY An existing well provides water to the current facility and meets the requirements for a community water system. The existing system will be upgraded as necessary to provide service to the new facilities. The existing well will be tested for productivity and a new well will be constructed if necessary. 1 .SG�FroN / 5rpri 70' R� LEGEND F��1J Existing building to remain �010 k�rcyEN j I/Kowze.5 C� Assessors parcel number folt". •'�`3 ~ GO/�GE N K/TCHE✓V l�C SO, SCHEMATIC FLOOR PLAN .?CAGE : / 's .3 , WASTEWATER Existing Wastewater System - Septic tank and leachfield between the RV existing spaces. Existing Design Flow - Approx. 1,000 gpd Proposed Wastewater System - Septic tanks, lift station, recirculation filter, and absorption trenches. Septic tanks will be provided for every six RV spaces. The effluent from the tanks will drain by gravity to the lift station where it will be pumped to the recirculation filter (constructed above the 100 -year flood elevation). All pipes and tanks within the flood zone will be watertight. The treated discharge from the filter will be dosed to multiple absorption fields located under spaces 62 through 94. This area has been tested (percolation tests and soil profiles) and has acceptable soils for the remaining treatment required to protect the groundwater resource. This area is located above the 10 - year flood elevation. Proposed Design Flow - 12, 000 gpd FLOODING The 100 -year flood elevation has been determined to be elevation 142.5. This elevation was established from data provided by Water Resources, the City of Oroville, and actual flood elevation data from the February 16, 1986, flood. The entire site lies within Zone "A" as shown on the F.E.M.A. Flood Insurance Rate Map, 060017-0480-B. Permanent structures will be constructed one foot above the 100 -year flood elevation. TRAFFIC Discussions with Caltrans staff indicated that an RV Park of this size would not generate significant impact. Ultimately, it is expected that the intersection at Ophir Road will be become the primary access from Pacific Heights Road to Highway 70. All RV Park advertising signs and brochures will direct traffic to this route. GRADING Substantial site grading is not required and existing contours will be maintained. All exposed soil surfaces will be planted with erosion resistant grasses. Storm drainage will be underground seepage trenches.

TRAFFIC Discussions with Caltrans staff indicated that an RV Park of this size would not generate significant impact on the adjacent intersections with Highway 70. In particular there would be no significant impact upon the existing Pacific Heights Road intersection at Georgia Pacific and Highway 70. Specifically, 'no additional improvements would be required at this or any other intersection with highway 70.
