CUP23-0007 - Durock Road AM/PM

Project CUP23-0007 is a Conditional Use Permit for the construction and operation of a new ARCO AM/PM gas station and convenience store located at the southwest corner of South Shingle Road and Durock Road in Shingle Springs, El Dorado County, California. The proposed facility will feature a 3,349-square-foot convenience store, a 100-foot-long automatic car wash, and a 4,606-square-foot fuel canopy equipped with six dispensers and twelve fueling positions. The site will include three underground storage tanks and will rely on the El Dorado Irrigation District for water and Pacific Gas and Electric for power. The project has undergone extensive environmental review in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act, resulting in a Mitigated Negative Declaration approved by the Board of Supervisors on February 3, 2026. Key environmental considerations include the protection of rare plants and nesting birds, noise mitigation, and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through EV-ready parking. The project must adhere to strict water quality standards governed by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board, including compliance with the Clean Water Act, the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act, and various National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System requirements. Regulatory oversight includes the necessity for Section 401 and 404 permits and Waste Discharge Requirements to manage stormwater and groundwater during construction.
