   The following shall be provided and made conditions of each CFO permit issued by DEHS:
   (a)   Completed and detailed plans showing CFO contours at two foot elevations shall be submitted with each application showing all details of the storage and/or processing operations incorporating all items required by this Section.
   (b)   All CFO driveways and employee parking areas shall be adequately dust proofed.
   (c)   There shall be no manufacturing or chemical additives on the CFO premises.
   (d)   Inorganic chemical additives shall be limited to ten percent of the total CFO raw material inventory.
   (e)   The CFO installation and operation shall comply with the rules, regulations and orders of all appropriate regulatory agencies including Air Pollution Control Districts and the Regional Water Quality Control Boards.
   (f)   The CFO stockpiling area shall be enclosed by a six foot high chain link fence which will be screened, planted with globular eucalyptus or similar plant material, on six foot centers; or equivalent upon review and approval by DEHS and the Office of Planning for this jurisdiction.
   (g)   Except for the stockpiling of raw materials, all CFO operations including: screening, grinding, mixing, adding, and sacking shall be confined wholly inside a building.
   (h)   All CFO stockpiling areas shall confine their rainstorm runoff waters so they do not drain onto adjoining properties.
   (i)   CFO stockpiling shall be shaped to one-to-four minimum slope to minimize the area subject to rainfall.
   (j)   Appropriate facilities shall be installed to collect or divert drainage from surrounding lands, away from the stockpile areas.
   (k)   CFO stockpiles shall be at least 150 feet from the front street centerline and 35 feet from side and rear property lines.
   (l)   CFO stockpiles shall not exceed a height of 25 feet. DEHS may require a lesser height so that the stockpile will not cause a nuisance to neighboring properties.
   (m)   CFO stockpiles and/or processing of manure shall not occur within 150 feet of a milking barn or milk house of a producer dairy, or a dwelling on adjoining property. DEHS may require greater distances upon determining the direction and magnitude of prevailing winds at the site.
   (n)   Noise levels from the CFO shall not exceed local ambient levels found in general agricultural uses, to adjoining occupied residences.
   (o)   Vehicles carrying CFO materials shall be adequately covered to confine the contents and prevent materials from being windblown or otherwise scattered.
   (p)   No public nuisance shall occur as a result of the CFO. DEHS shall abate all CFO dust, odor, noise, attracting or breeding of flies or other vermin, and other public nuisances as set forth in Chapter 3 (Public Nuisance Abatement) of this E.H. Code.
