JOHN & CATHERINE MUNDT
Stanislaus County has established an Environment Review Committee (ERC), which consists of representatives
of the Departments of Public Works, Planning and Community Development, Environmental Resources, Fire
Safety, County Counsel, and the Chief Executive Office. The ERC meets every other Wednesday at 9:30 AM at
th
1010 10 Street, Suite 3400, Modesto. The primary purpose of the ERC is to provide a unified County review
and response to environmental issues associated with projects which are referred to the County. The Chief
Executive Office has been designated as the County Agency responsible for coordinating the review process.
Each agency should review the projects from the point of view of impacts on its own areas of responsibility.
Please be as specific as possible in the expected degree of impacts including costs of providing services and
possible methods of mitigating the impacts to acceptable levels including mitigation fees. Please complete the
attached response form or provide a written response within two weeks.
The California Environmental Quality Act establishes very tight time frames for review. For that reason it is very
important that a prompt response be provided. It is the hope that all County responses can be sent to the
referring agencies as a package; however, in some instances the time for review does not permit that to happen.
Some responses will have to be sent directly to the agency, with a copy to the Chief Executive Office. Please
note below the date responses are needed and where to send them. Please send the original of any comments
you may have directly to the agency listed below and a copy to the Stanislaus County Chief Executive Office.
Please contact me if you have any questions.

****PLEASE REVIEW REFERRAL PROCESS POLICY****
The Stanislaus County Department of Planning and Community Development is soliciting comments from
responsible agencies under the Early Consultation process to determine: a) whether or not the project is
subject to CEQA and b) if specific conditions should be placed upon project approval.
Therefore, please contact this office by the response date if you have any comments pertaining to the proposal.
Comments made identifying potential impacts should be as specific as possible and should be based on supporting
data (e.g., traffic counts, expected pollutant levels, etc.). Your comments should emphasize potential impacts in
areas which your agency has expertise and/or jurisdictional responsibilities.
These comments will assist our Department in preparing a staff report to present to the Planning Commission. Those
reports will contain our recommendations for approval or denial. They will also contain recommended conditions to
be required should the project be approved. Therefore, please list any conditions that you wish to have included for
presentation to the Commission as well as any other comments you may have. Please return all comments and/or
conditions as soon as possible or no later than the response date referenced above.
Thank you for your cooperation. Please call (209) 525-6330 if you have any questions.
