Conditional Use Permit Case No. 13, Map 213

A Conditional Use Permit has been applied for to operate a soil amendment facility on an 18.94-acre parcel located at 9705 Valpredo Avenue in the Mettler area of Kern County, California, within the A (Exclusive Agriculture) District. The application, identified as Case No. 13, Map 213 and Permit Number PLN24-00106, is governed by Kern County Code Section 19.12.030.A.2 and seeks approval for processing agricultural materials under a special environmental exemption under CEQA Section 15183. The applicant, Alejandro Rodriguez of Agricultural Soil Products LLC, with Juan Rodriguez listed as the property owner, submitted the request through the Kern County Planning and Natural Resources Department, with Robert Williams serving as the primary point of contact. The permit process involves multiple administrative reviews and fees totaling $2,965, including charges for the Conditional Use Permit itself, fire safety consultation, electronic permit maintenance, legal description review, land development assessment, policy conformance, and CEQA posting. No federal procurement clauses, contracting officer roles, delivery schedules, packaging requirements, or evaluation factors exist, as this is a local land-use permitting action rather than a federal acquisition. The sole performance location is the specified parcel in Kern County, with no option for extension or modification, and no contractual delivery or servicing terms beyond the issuance of the permit and compliance with local regulations. The application was received on June 9, 2026, and heard publicly on May 14, 2026, with a posted date of June 16, 2026. All fees were paid, with no indication of future obligations beyond the initial payment. The process relies entirely on county-level administrative procedures and environmental compliance, with no federal contracting infrastructure, representations, certifications, or procurement mechanisms applicable.
