1 5.5 RISK OF UPSET/HAZARDOUS MATERIALS Environmental Setting The Goleta area is a diverse coastal area within Santa Barbara County, California. The landscape ranges from coastal bluffs to chaparral covered mountains. A significant ecological feature of the area is the Goleta Slough. Land uses in the Goleta area include a mix of urban uses (e.g., residential, commercial, high-tech industry, a local airport) as well as agricultural and open space land use. General categories of hazards that are present in the Goleta area and are addressed in this EIR section include: Wildfire hazards; Oil and gas pipelines/facilities; Hazards associated with aircraft operations at the Santa Barbara Municipal Airport; and Storage, handling, and transportation of hazardous materials Fire Hazards As described in the County of Santa Barbara Seismic Safety and Safety Element, Santa Barbara County residents live with a wildfire problem that is unique in the world. Recent fire events and updates to the County s mapping system have shown that the possibility of fires and fire storms in now a year round phenomenon. On dry, extremely windy days, the woodland, brush land, and chaparral and grasslands become volatile tinder boxes. A spark from any source such as debris burning, machine use or a carelessly thrown cigarette can start a fire that has the potential to spread across thousands of acres in thirty to forty hours, if unchecked. Over 90 per cent of wildland fires are caused by man. Based upon a review of the County of Santa Barbara Fire Hazard Map, no portion of the Project impact area is located within an extreme or high fire hazard area. The Santa Barbara County Fire Department provides the Goleta area with fire suppression and fire prevention services. They have identified low and highpreparedness operational scenarios within the County. Fire stations are located within at least approximately 2.5 miles of all Project impact areas. The closed Foothill Landfill Sediment Disposal/Restoration Site produces some methane gas. Methane gas is flammable. Presently, there is no collection system in place or required. However, the County does have gas probes to monitor offsite migration (Zertuche, personal communication June 10, 2009) Oil and Gas Pipelines and Facilities Southern California Gas Company has facilities in the Goleta Slough area including: numerous wells located in proximity to Atascadero, San Jose and San Pedro creeks, and Page 5.5-1

2 Goleta Beach; aboveground storage field pipelines including one that crosses Atascadero Creek south of the confluence with San Pedro and San Jose creeks; subsurface pipelines; a gas injection and storage facility immediately south of Atascadero Creek; and miscellaneous associated facilities such as roads, towers, etc. (Southern California Gas Company, 2009). According to the County of Santa Barbara Energy Division, no oil or gas facilities other than the Southern California Gas facilities are located within the Project area of impact (Anthony, personal communication, May 20, 2009). A review of the California Department of Conservation Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) online mapping system for the Project area yielded no additional listing of active oil or gas wells (DOGGR, May 20, 2009). However, additional plugged wells were shown to be located in the general vicinity of the Goleta Slough and closed Foothill Landfill. DOGGR regulates oil, gas, and geothermal well operations throughout the state. Oil and gas facilities are also regulated on the state or local level by agencies within the jurisdictions in which they are located. Natural gas pipelines operating outside of industrial and public works facilities are expected to be located in most public rights-of-way within the Project area based upon information presented in the County and City General Plan Elements addressing hazards. Oil pipelines are less common but are also typically located within public rights-of-way. These pipelines are regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the California Public Utilities Commission. In part because of regulatory oversight, oil and gas pipelines within public rights-of-way are not subject to frequent leaks. However, third party damage to pipelines remains a major cause of pipeline leaks, and third-party-caused gas leaks can result in an explosion Santa Barbara Municipal Airport Although it is a non-contiguous part of the City of Santa Barbara, the Santa Barbara Municipal Airport (SBMA) is located near the geographical center of the City of Goleta. There are two designated airport hazard areas associated with the SBMA: Safety Area 1, the clear zone (virtually all non-agricultural land uses are incompatible in this area due to the high hazard); and Safety Area 2, the approach zone (any concentration of people within the approach zone is strongly discouraged by the County Airport Land Use Commission) (City of Goleta, June 2008). The entire Project area is located within the Airport Influence Area (AIA) with the exception of the closed Foothill Landfill. The risk of accidents associated with aircraft operation at the airport is highest during takeoffs and landings, including approaches and ascents Transport and Storage of Hazardous Materials As defined by the State of California, a hazardous material is a substance that is toxic, ignitable or flammable, or reactive and/or corrosive. Hazardous materials may be used in certain manufacturing or industrial operations, in construction, and in other land uses such as gas stations. As a result of the history of industrial and commercial development, several sites within the Goleta area have the potential to have been impacted by previous or current releases of contaminated materials (City of Goleta, June 2008). The primary concern associated with the Page 5.5-2

3 release of a hazardous material is the short- and long-term effects that exposure to a hazardous substance may have on the public and the environment. Hazardous materials are governed by regulations that require proper storage, handling, employee and public noticing, spill contingency planning, business/environmental management plans, and other emergency response measures necessary to ensure public safety and to minimize the risk of accidental releases or environmental impacts. In the Project area, the administering agencies are the Santa Barbara County Fire Department, Fire Prevention Division (SBCFPD) and the Santa Barbara County Office of Emergency Services (SBCOES). While both agencies require a Hazardous Materials Business Plan (HMBP), the SBFPD administers the HMBPs. A HMBP is a program that requires a business that handles and/or stores hazardous materials to provide an inventory of hazardous materials stored on site, emergency response and contingency procedures, and an employee training program. In addition, businesses that store, in total, at least 1,320 gallons of oil (e.g., gasoline, diesel, fuel, lubricating oil, mineral/transformer oil, etc.) in aboveground storage tanks (ASTs), vessels, and/or equipment are required to prepare a Spill Prevention Control and Counter measures (SPCC) Plan pursuant to the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 112 (40 CFR 112), and to provide secondary containment for each oil-containing AST and/or vessel greater than 55 gallons. The secondary containment shall be capable of containing 110 percent of the respective tank or vessel size, or 110 percent of the largest AST or vessel clustered together in a common containment basin/structure. Like a HMBP, a SPCC Plan would provide an inventory of oil-containing ASTs and vessels stored on site, the amounts of oil stored in each, emergency response and contingency procedures, and an employee training program. Some of the land uses in the Project area with the greatest potential to pose hazards related to their activities, the hazardous materials used, and the potential for release include: aircraft-related support operations; the Southern California Gas Company gas injection and storage facility and associated above- and below-ground pipelines; the University of California; and the Goleta Sanitary District Wastewater Treatment Plant. Other land uses including various research, commercial and industrial facilities in proximity to and upstream of the Project sites also have the potential to affect the Project sites in the event of a release to surface water including sediments that may be transported downstream. A search of the Department of Toxic Substances Control Envirostore Database of Federal Superfund Sites (NPL), State Response Sites, Voluntary Cleanup Sites, School Cleanup Sites, Permitted Sites and Corrective Action Sites for the Goleta area yielded four site records. The facilities identified included: Ratheon EW Operations, Ratheon Vision Systems, Shell Western Gas Plant and The Direct TV Group. All of the identified site except the Shell Western Gas Plant are in the general Project area, but north of Hollister Avenue. Based upon a review of the site reports for these facilities, they do not present a hazard for the Project impact areas. A search of the California State Water Resources Control Board Geotracker database covering leaking underground Tank (LUST) cleanup sites, other cleanup sites, land disposal sites, military sites and monitoring wells for the Goleta area yielded numerous sites in proximity to the Project impact areas. Many of these sites were closed (i.e., clean up is completed to regulatory standards). Other sites such as the Chevron (6470 Hollister Avenue), United Parcel Service (505 Pine Avenue), Santa Barbara Airport Terminal, Midway Electric (5775 Thornwood Page 5.5-3

4 Drive), Discount Muffler and Brake (6410 Hollister Avenue), Hertz Corporation (5919 Corta Street) are still open (have not been remediated to regulatory standards), but their potential effects would not likely be of relevance to the proposed Project activities due to the type of medium affected (e.g., groundwater aquifers) or geographical limits of the contamination. Although contaminated groundwater from these sites may have a potential to surface and affect downstream surface water bodies, this is considered to be an unlikely scenario. One open site, Channel Industries located at 939 Ward Drive, has surface water (including sediment contamination) as well as soil and groundwater contamination. As reported by Trak Environmental Group (January 25, 2008), soils test results indicate that lead was detected at elevated concentrations at the site with the greatest concentrations appearing to be located in the drainage channel located immediately west of the site and east of Highway 217, and in surficial sampling locations. There is no indication that any sediments with elevated lead have entered into the Project impact areas as sampling was not conducted beyond the site with the exception of the adjacent drainage channel. The Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board has cleanup authority over this site. In addition to the risks associated with land uses as described above, major transportation corridors are also a potential source of accidental releases or environmental incidents involving hazardous materials. Transport of hazardous materials in the Project area is most likely to occur along US- 101, State Route 217 (SR-217), Hollister Avenue, and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the California Department of Transportation (DOT) enforce federal and state regulations and respond to incidents associated with transport of hazardous materials. The County of Santa Barbara has a County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan. The County of Santa Barbara and participating cities, in cooperation with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and the State Offices of Emergency Services, is responsible for emergency preparedness and response. The Hazard Mitigation Plan would be utilized to identify evacuation routes and secondary emergency accesses and to provide information to the community regarding appropriate individual actions in the event of accidental releases from vehicles and railcars transporting hazardous materials or wastes. The CHP enforces DOT, Caltrans, and state and local regulations. The CHP and SBCFPD would respond to incidents associated with transport of hazardous materials Site Specific-Setting The main components of the Project are situated in the Goleta Slough. However, an upland sediment disposal site is located north of U.S. Highway 101 and about 3.5 miles east of the Goleta Slough. Any known potential existing hazards specific to each of the direct impact areas of the Project are described below: Atascadero Creek - Southern California Gas Company gas injection and storage facility located to the south; downstream toward Goleta beach there is a high pressure above-ground gas line crossing the creek. The Atascadero Creek impact area is outside of the airport safety zones. Page 5.5-4

5 San Jose Creek - The Project impact area appears to be just south of the airport safety zones. Highway 217 is located immediately east of the creek and presents a potential transportation corridor hazard. San Pedro Creek - The Project impact area is just south of the airport safety hazard zone (clear zone). The Goleta Sanitary District Wastewater Treatment Plant is located immediately west of San Pedro Creek. Los Carneros Creek - The Project impact area is outside of the airport safety hazard zone. However, airport-related land uses are located on both sides of the creek in this area. Tecolotito Creek - The Project impact area is located just outside of the airport safety hazard area. Hollister Avenue is north of the Project impact area and presents a potential transportation corridor hazard. Goleta Beach County Park - The Project impact area is located just outside of the airport safety hazard area. Ward Memorial Drive/217 is north of the Project impact area and presents a potential transportation corridor hazard. Closed Foothill Landfill Sediment Disposal/Restoration Site. The Project impact area is not within any hazard zones. However, the site is a closed landfill and as such is likely producing methane Impact Analysis and Mitigation Measures Thresholds of Significance The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) sets forth a legal framework for identifying significant effects on the environment. Among other criteria, a project may have a significant effect on the environment if it will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly (Public Resources Code Section 21083(c) and CEQA Guidelines Section l5l26.2(a) and (b)). Accordingly, Santa Barbara County's Environmental Thresholds and Guidelines Manual includes thresholds to define the significance of public exposure to acute risks posed by certain types of facilities or activities that involve hazardous materials as defined in its Public Safety Thresholds section. However, because of the nature of the Project which is not a hazardous facility, and does not introduce a permanent population to an area in proximity to a hazardous facility, these thresholds do not apply. Further as stated in the Thresholds and Guidelines Manual, the thresholds do not apply to land uses with transitory populations where populations are sporadic, nor does it apply to occupational safety or chronic risks. Therefore, the following criteria are based on Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines are applied herein for the purposes of identifying the potential Project impacts associated with risk of upset and hazardous materials and their significance. For the purposes of this document, the Project may have a significant adverse impact related to hazards and hazardous materials if it would result in any of the following: create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials; Page 5.5-5

6 create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment; emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school; include a site that is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section and, as a result, creates a significant hazard to the public or the environment; create a safety hazard for people residing or working in an area within two miles of a public or public use airport; impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan; or expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands Currently Approved Goleta Slough Maintenance Program The following summarizes the risk of upset/hazardous materials-related impacts as identified in the Program EIR (93-EIR-04). 1. Leaks of fuels, hydraulic oil and lubricants during transfer (less than significant - Class III). 2. Fuel storage tank leaks (less than significant - Class III). 3. Fuel storage tank fires (less than significant - Class III) 4. Dredge or crane fire (less than significant - Class III) 5. Discharge pipeline accident (less than significant - Class III) 6. Storm conditions impact on operations (less than significant - Class III) 7. Impact to Southern California Gas Company gas line pilings at Atascadero Creek (significant but mitigable - Class II) Proposed Updated Maintenance Program The primary changes proposed as part of the updated maintenance program or changes in the environment that would modify risk of upset/hazardous materials-related impacts include: Utilizing the closed Foothill Landfill for upland disposal of sediments. Proposed restoration activities at the landfill. Page 5.5-6

7 Changes in existing conditions of the Project area as it relates to soil and groundwater contamination Project Impacts Use, Transport and Disposal of Hazardous Materials Required for Project Operations Impact RU-1: The use, maintenance and fueling of equipment has the potential to result in the discharge of hazardous material to the environment from leaks and accidental spills (potentially significant - Class II). Equipment associated with the Project for hydraulic dredging operations include: hydraulic dredge Ellicot 270/370 or DMC Barracuda 10 series, and a crane. The hydraulic dredge operates on diesel fuel and contains onboard pumping equipment. Additionally, booster pumps may be floated like the dredge or staged on the bank approximately 3,000 feet from the working area. Other equipment that would be used for hydraulic dredging operations include: forklift, loader/dozer, welding machine, fusion machine, and rubber track dump truck. For dragline dredging the main piece of equipment is a crane (rated at 100-tons or larger) rigged as a dragline that would operate from the sides of the creeks or basins. Additional equipment for the dragline dredging operations include trucks for hauling, an excavator for loading sediment into trucks, and a bulldozer. The fuel for the hydraulic dredge is stored in the staging area located in the eastern portion of Goleta Beach County Park in an enclosed cargo trailer (Zertuche, June 10, 2009). The lubricants, oils and chemicals for the hydraulic dredge are stored in a trailer also at the staging area at the eastern portion of Goleta Beach County Park. The fueling and maintenance of Project equipment for the hydraulic dredge takes place on the dredge or in the staging area located in the eastern portion of Goleta Beach County Park. Fuel is transported to the dredge in smaller fuel containers on a skiff. The fuel for the crane is stored in a temporary portable tank inside of a pickup truck. The lubricants, oils and chemicals for the crane are stored in a locked container inside the back of a pickup truck. The truck does not stay onsite. The fueling and maintenance of Project equipment for the crane takes place onsite in the staging area. Fueling and maintenance of equipment takes place one to two times per day for both the crane and the hydraulic dredge. A spill kit is provided in all cranes and in all county trucks and equipment. The spill kits are by Target Industries and each kit has Spill Response Kit Instructions. In the event a booster pump is required to maintain the appropriate desilting discharge rate, if the booster pump is located on land, a temporary, above-ground fuel storage tank would be installed in accordance with applicable government regulations pertaining to the siting, construction and use of such tanks. As indicated above numerous pieces of equipment that require fueling and maintenance are part of the Project. Several safeguards are presently in effect to prevent the contamination of soil or water resources. However, due to the sensitivity of the Project environment, any discharge of hazardous materials may be significant. This issue is also addressed in Section Water Resources and Biological Resources of this EIR. Page 5.5-7

8 Impact RU-2: Discharge of pesticides associated with restoration activities have the potential to significantly impact human and environmental health (potentially significant and mitigable - Class II). Proposed site enhancement activities may result in the use of pesticides. In appropriate use, storage or disposal of such substances may result in adverse impacts to human and environmental health. The significance of such effects is dependent upon the type of chemical, quantity, and location of release among other factors. Because of the sensitivity of the environment for all of the creek-side enhancement areas, this impact is considered potentially significant. Impact RU-3: The Project would not impact school facilities (Class III - Less than Significant Impact). Based upon a review of the Goleta Valley Community Plan - Focus on Zone 2 Public Facilities Map (County of Santa Barbara, January 6, 2009), the Project sites are not located within 0.25 mile of a school. Mitigation Measures Mitigation Provided by the 1993 Program EIR. The Biological Resources section of the PEIR included a mitigation measure requiring the development and implementation of a site-specific emergency spill contingency plan for hydraulic and drag-line dredging. Please see MM PBIO-12 Spill Prevention Plan in Section 5.4, Biological Resources of this EIR. Mitigation Recommended by the Subsequent EIR. Section Water Resources and Flooding, includes MM WR-1 Defined Best Management Practices (BMPs) which would also serve to reduce Project impacts associated with the use transport and disposal of hazardous materials. Upset and Accident Conditions Impact RU-4: Impacts from upset and accident conditions from facilities proximate to the Project site on Project personnel are considered less than significant (Class III) As indicated above, there are several facilities that use or generate hazardous material in the Project vicinity such as the Southern California Gas facilities, airport-related uses, the University of California, etc. Additionally, hazardous materials are transported through the area. All of these facilities and the transport of hazardous materials are regulated as described in the Setting Section above. Because only a limited temporary population would be introduced to the Project area and existing environmental safeguards are in place (such as County-wide and facility emergency response plans), impacts from upset and accident conditions from facilities proximate to the Project site on Project personnel are considered less than significant. Impact RU-5: Potential impacts associated with dredging effects on the pipeline supports are expected to be less than significant (Class III). Southern California Gas aboveground pipeline supports are located at Atascadero Creek. Southern California Edison has historically expressed concern over the potential for dredging operations in the channel to impact the integrity of the pipeline supports. The District presently communicates with Southern Page 5.5-8

9 California Edison prior to dredging operations. Any issues pertaining to the Project affecting the pipelines are resolved at that time. Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required. Proximity to Hazardous Sites Impact RU-6: The Project would result in less than significant impacts to human health and the environment in the event contaminated soils are identified through the sediment analysis procedures implemented as part of the Project SAP (soil stockpiling and disposal issues only, water quality issues are addressed in Section 5.1 of this EIR) (Class III). The Project site is not included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section However, as described in the Setting Section above, there are numerous facilities that use and store hazardous material in the Project vicinity. At any time, one of these facilities could experience a release of hazardous materials to the environment. The Project includes implementation of a pre-project SAP. The SAP includes sampling for various constituents (including; but not limited to total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), pesticides, Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), metals, and coliform bacteria) as well as grain size to determine the appropriate disposal alternative (see Table 2-4 for a summary of historic sampling results). The SAP includes a provision for the preliminary soil sampling report to be forwarded to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, EPA, RWQCB and the Coastal Commission for review and approval of recommended sediment and disposal methods and locations. Should the sediments be determined to have amounts of hazardous substances above regulatory thresholds, the above-referenced permitting agencies would advise the District on the proper sediment disposal procedures. In addition, the SBCOES would be a local responsible agency involved in the appropriate management of the hazardous materials. The storage, transport and disposal of material with concentrations of hazardous substances above regulatory thresholds would be conducted in accordance with all local, state and federal requirements. As such it is not anticipated that these activities would result in significant impacts to public and environmental health. Water quality issues relating to the presence of hazardous substances in sediment and associated public health and safety issues are addressed in Section 5.1 of this EIR. Mitigation Measures Mitigation Incorporated in the Project Description. MM Project 1: Sampling and Analysis Plan - Implementation of Project-incorporated Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP) in accordance with ASTM and USEPA guidelines. No further measures are required. Page 5.5-9

10 Airport Hazards Impact RU-7: Impacts associated with airport safety (e.g., possible aircraft impact on Project operations) are considered less than significant (Class III). No portion of the Project is within an airport safety hazard area; however, the Project sites (except the closed Foothill Landfill Disposal/Restoration Site) are within the influence area of the SBMA. No permanent structures are proposed and no permanent population would be introduced to an airport safety hazard area as a result of the Project. Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required. Emergency Response Impact RU-8. There are no elements of the Project that would adversely affect emergency response (Class III - Less than Significant Impact). Due to the nature of the proposed activities as a flood channel maintenance project, it would not significantly affect emergency response (e.g., no road closures required). Wildland Fire Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required. Impact RU-9: The wildland fire impact of the Project is considered to be less than significant (Class III). The Project includes elements that have risk of fire associated with them. They are: use of heavy equipment, which could create sparks; and concentration of substantial amounts of fuel (e.g., equipment fuel tanks and stand-alone fuel tank). Due to government-regulated storage tank placement and design (e.g., fire code requirements), a tank fire is considered unlikely. The impact associated with potential fire starts from equipment operation or careless workers is reduced by the water environment of the creek wherein some operations would occur and proximity of emergency fire response to the Project area. Additionally, fire suppression equipment is expected to be provided on the dredge and crane. Workers at the closed Foothill Landfill implement standard fire prevention and response measures including no smoking by equipment operators, spark arrestors and having fire extinguishers available (Zertuche, personal communication, June 10, 2009). Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required. Page
