Conditional Use Permit Case No. 79, Map 142

A Conditional Use Permit has been granted to allow the addition of a small-volume transfer station to an existing agricultural trucking operation located on a 7.02-acre parcel in an Exclusive Agriculture (A) District at 12856 Old River Road in Bakersfield, California. The permit, designated as Case No. 79, Map 142 under solicitation PLN25-00158, is subject to compliance with Kern County Zoning Code Section 19.12.030.H and was determined to be exempt from environmental review under CEQA Section 15061(b)(3). The project involves modifying the current operations of the agricultural trucking facility to accommodate the transfer station without changing the existing land use classification, and the approval follows a public hearing conducted by the Kern County Planning Commission. The applicant, Mark Lutrel, representing Sierra Transport LLC, paid a total of $2,965 in administrative fees covering permit processing, legal review, fire consultation, CEQA posting, land development review, electronic permit maintenance, and policy compliance. No federal contracting mechanisms, FAR clauses, procurement types, line items, or contract administration structures apply, as this is a local land use approval rather than a federally funded or regulated acquisition. The place of performance is clearly defined by the parcel’s legal description and APN, and oversight responsibility rests with Kern County’s Planning and Natural Resources Department, with Kathy Barker serving as the primary point of contact for administrative coordination.
