I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was passed and adopted by the Council of the City of Bakersfield at a regular meeting thereof held on the 12th day of June , 1985, by the following vote: CITY CLERK and Ex Officio Clerk of the Council of the City of Bakersfield APPROVED this 12th day of June MAYOR of the City of Baker'sfield 1985 APPROVED as to form: T~RRN~EY of the Cit~ of Bakersfield AJS/bl 2 R.SWMP sTAFF REPORT Amendment #2 to the Kern County Solid Waste Management Plan-1983 Revision A_=oplicant.: Shell California Production, Inc. (SCPI), Project: Class II solid waste solar evaporation ponds for disposal of liquid scrubber waste from secondary recovery operations. Location: E½ of NW~ of Section 23, T.32S., R.23E., MDB&M about 2 miles south of Taft off of Twenty-Five Hill Road. Purpose.: The purpose of the project is to dispose of liquid scrubber waste generated by the applicant in their own steam injection operation. Initially the volume of waste will be about 610 barrels per day. Design and~]~eration: Disposal of the waste will be by evaporation from two double-lined ponds each about 2.5 acres in surface area. A leak detection system will be installed in a sand layer between the plastic liners. The project will be designed to handle the anticipated waste stream for 15 years. ~hen all liquids are evaporated and only dry solids remain, the ponds will be covered with 6 inches of native soil followed by a plastic membrane, then 2 feet of native soil graded to a 3 percent slope and seeded with local shallow rooted grasses. A wash rack will be located at the end of one of the ponds. It will be supplied by water from SCPI's nearby facilities. Necessary electric power will be extended from SCPI's facilities. ~!.~. ~<' .~"- Access to the project will be county-owned 25 Hill Road to~C~LI~Ls property e then by constructed improved road to the site. ~ 1~:', - ' -' ' - ' ' or transported by 100 bbl. Waste materia'l will be piped in from oft'-s~te vacuum trucks which will discharge directly into the ponds from concrete ramps. Safe pond levels will be maintained by directing unloading trucks to the appropriate pond. The site will be protected by a six-foot high chain link fence around the perimeter. Access will be .restricted to SCPI personnel or their contractors during specified hours. Environmental Considerations: The area is sparsely covered by native grasses and low shrubs. Because the area is adjacent to extensive, active oil producing operations only, a few small burrowing animals and song birds inhabit the area. There are no scenic or known archeological values. T' e underlying groundwater is in the first c~il zone and is of a poor quality. However, the pond design will prevent leakage of the wastes into the aquifer. No significant additional noise, dust, or other emissions will be created by the project. There will be about 4 additional trucks per day using the county road to the site but those trucks would be using other county roads to the existing disposal sites. Economics: Construction of the project will reduce SCPI's disposal costs substantially not only because the hauling cost will be lessened, but also because the cost to dispose will be less. There are no known extra costs to the County or City of Taft.
