routes
in
the
vicinity
of
the
Project
Site
would
either
be
maintained
as
is
or
rerouted
as
necessary.
In
addition,
all
development
would
be
subject
to
the
requirements
of
the
Brisbane
Police
Department
and
North
County
Fire
Authority
standards,
which
include
provisions
that
address
emergency
access.
Proposed
development
of
the
Baylands
would
provide
for
fire
station
improvements
and
a
second
police
beat,
which
would
improve
emergency
access
for
fire
and
police
personnel
to
the
Tank
Farm
area.
Thus,
the
Draft
EIR
concluded
that
development
of
the
Baylands
would
not
eliminate
or
hinder
emergency
access
to
the
Tank
Farm.
Although
truck
access
between
the
Tank
Farm
and
the
US
Highway
101
would
be
limited
to
Lagoon
Road,
Sierra
Point
Parkway,
and
Bayshore
Boulevard,
roadway
improvements
required
to
be
provided
by
proposed
Baylands
development
would
maintain
needed
truck
access
to
and
from
the
freeway.

the
Proposed
Recology
Expansion
Comments
Several
comments
expressed
concerns
regarding
the
compatibility
among
proposed
Baylands
development,
the
existing
Recology
facility
and
its
proposed
expansion,
and
surrounding
land
uses
including
Visitacion
Valley.
Response
The
existing
44.2-acre
Recology
site
straddles
the
Brisbane/San
Francisco
boundary
between
US
Highway
101
and
Tunnel
Avenue.
The
facility
provides
landfill
diversion
and
resource
recovery
services
to
residential,
commercial,
and
municipal
customers
in
San
Francisco.
Operational
activities
that
occur
on
the
site
include
waste
transfer,
materials
recovery,
public
disposal
and
recycling,
vehicle
weighing
and
maintenance,
organics
transfer,
fueling,
temporary
hazardous
materials
storage,
fleet
parking,
cart
and
container
maintenance
and
storage,
and
administrative
activities,
which
include
a
learning
center,
offices,
and
an
artist-in-residence
studio.
There
are
approximately
20
existing
buildings
currently
located
on
the
site
that
contain
administration,
operations,
and
maintenance
functions
for
the
facility;
about
half
of
these
buildings
are
located
within
the
Brisbane
city
limits.
Approximately
260,000
square
feet
of
building
area
is
present
within
the
site.
Existing
facilities
also
include
a
fleet
of
558
vehicles.
The
CPP-V
scenario
includes
a
proposed
modernization
and
expansion
program
of
the
Recology
facility
to
provide
updated
infrastructure
for
managing
San
Francisco’s
solid
waste
stream,
including
zero
waste
programs.
The
Recology
site
would
be
expanded
to
65.5
acres
and
1,011,000
square
feet
of
building
area.
Site
redevelopment
would
involve
replacement
of
most
of
the
buildings
currently
on
the
site
with
new
recycling
and
resource
recovery
facilities,
maintenance
facilities,
administrative
offices,
and
supporting
operations
buildings.
