The amendments to the West Eugene Wetlands Plan leave adequate industrial land within the Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area within the 20-year planning period. Therefore, these amendments are consistent with Goal 9 with respect to industrial land. The cumulative impact on the buildable lands inventory of these amendments together with amendments included in other ordinances adopted previously can be calculated by combining the impacts of the three ordinances. The ordinance which contains amendments affecting Site H2 (the Speedway site) would remove up to 10.2 acres from the industrial buildable lands inventory. The remaining ordinance (the "multiple sites" ordinance) contains amendments that would remove a total of 54.8 acres of industrial buildable land. Together with the reductions from amendments affecting the Hyundai site (included in this ordinance), these designations would bring the total reduction in buildable industrial land from all three ordinances to 116.2 acres. This would leave 3,488.1 acres of buildable industrial land available, which represents a supply that is 2,316.1 acres more than the maximum projected twenty-year demand for 1,172 acres of industrial land. Therefore, after the amendments in all three ordinances are adopted, there will be sufficient buildable industrial land remaining to meet the projected 20-year demand. As stated above, these amendments do not affect land designated for commercial use in the Metropolitan Area General Plan. Therefore, no analysis of impacts to the supply of commercial land is required under Statewide Planning Goal 9. Conclusions The above findings show that these amendments to the West Eugene Wetlands Plan are consistent with Oregon Statewide Planning Goals 1, 5 and 9. This conclusion is based on: 1) the relatively minor impact (through restrictions of land use) that wetland designation changes will have on the overall supply of industrial land, 2) the fact that these minor impacts will not prohibit or significantly interfere with meeting the projected twenty-year buildable land demands as it is indicated in the inventory report noted above, 3) the abundant opportunities provided for citizen involvement throughout the planning process and 4) approval of these amendments by the Oregon Division of State Lands as amendments to the West Eugene Wetland Conservation Plan. No further analysis of Statewide Planning Goals is necessary for these amendments to the West Eugene Wetlands Plan (RA 96-1).
