§ 84-63.1006. Determination of transportation risk.  


Latest version.
  • The transportation risk point assignment shall be calculated based upon planned total quantities of materials in a hazard category, measured in tons per year for each hazard category proposed. The transportation risk point assignment shall be calculated for each mode of transportation proportionally within a single hazard category. That transportation point assignment shall be compared by hazard category with the total amount of material in the hazard category transported during the baseline period in order to obtain the percent change in Section 84-63.1004(b), Transportation risk.

    For purposes of determining whether truck transportation is through residential/commercial or industrial areas, the shortest legal route from the closest two-lane (or larger) freeway shall be considered. If the route used in the county does not traverse a two-lane (or larger) freeway, the entire route shall be considered.

(Ords. 98-48 § 5, 96-50, 96-20).
