Develo ment of tl~e subject property ~~~ay occur Dilly after site review pursuant to Springfield p De~+elopment Code, SDC Article 3l , ~~~}rich rzq~~ires tl~at the design of the proposed develo ment, as conditioned, "mitigates identified negati~le impacts and resolves identified land P . use conflicts," including those ide~~tified here. 31.aba~3}. Each site plan review apphcat2on must include a written description of the development proposal and a site inventory map showing slopes, natural features, and existing public facilities. The development plan must show haw natural features will be modified by construction activity, showing building footprints and elevations as well as parking and circulation, public improvements, drain~~age, and landscaping. Site review a royal o~ a s~ ecif c development proposal on this site will require that the PP P a ~icable resource protection policies of the Metro Plan be addressed, and that appropriate PP rotectian~ be afforded. Accordingly, the site can only be developed after implementation of the P plan's acknowledged program to achieve the purposes of Goal 5. In addition, all wetlands falling under the jurisdiction of the Division of State Lands andlor the Co s of Engineers will be protected as required by applicable state and federal laws and rP regulations. The forested wetland, drainage ditcl~, and wet meadow area ident~f ed ~n the EDA Stud as "the most significant wetland resource area" on the site has been identified on the .Y a licant's conceptual plan copy attached as "Enhanced wetland" and shall be fully protected PP under an develo meet plan that is approved. Y P Goal 6 ~ Air, .wat.er and I;~~nd Resources Quali#y~. This goal requires that local com rehensive plans and implementing measures be consistent with state and federal regulations P governing air, water, and land resources quality.. An LRAPA analysis of emiss~ons from the nearb industrial area confirms that those industries are operating within existing safety standards y .. and that exposures on the site are well below those standards. ~ In addition, the appl~cat~on, as modified, calls for an industrial buffer area east of the only existing heavy industrial facility near the site, the Neste resin. plant. This area will be designated for Light~Medium 1'ndustrial use, excludin all residential uses and ermittina onl light manufacturing, assembly, and warehouse g P b Y t e uses, roviding both a buffer .and a logical transition. Based upon the. models which YP P LRAPA has developed, the proposed buffer will provide far more protection to the residents of S rin wood than is re aired by any applicable statute or regulation. It will provide many times P g q the . rotection afforded to plant workers under federal law. And it will provide substantially F .. mare separat~an from Springwood than ~~s currently enjoyed by~ residents of the trailer park dust north of the lant. The matrices and printouts that LRAPA has provided project potential P concentrations of formaldehyde ~n the air at vanous distances to the east of the plant when the wind is blowin from the west. The matrix specif es 14 wind speeds and b air stability levels. g At an specific distance and direction, the projected concentration would exist only when the y ~vind was blowing in that direction at the specif ed speed under the specif ed air stability condition. ~ ~~ 3
