Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page 1I-5 <br /> Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project <br /> each month: <br /> o two of the visits shall begin at dawn, <br /> o two shall occur during mid-day, <br /> 0 one shall occur late in the afternoon covering the period after the <br /> falconer has finished for the day, and <br /> 0 one shall occur on Sunday when the landfill is closed to insure <br /> that gulls are not accessing the site when staff are absent. <br /> • Site visits in addition to the minimum of six monthly visits described <br /> above shall be made if necessary to verify the criteria for failure <br /> described below. <br /> • The results of the monitoring shall be documented in an annual report. <br /> • Landfill staff shall participate in monitoring so that action can be taken as <br /> soon as a potential problem is identified. <br /> The control program shall be considered to be failing and will require upgrading if <br /> any of the following situations occur: <br /> • Gulls land at the active disposal area, begin to feed, and are able to feed <br /> for 10 minutes or more,on two or more occasions during a week. <br /> • Flocks of gulls begin loafing on other parts of the landfill and are not <br /> scared away by the control program within 30 minutes, on more than <br /> two occasions during a week. <br /> • Gulls begin to circle over the landfill, including adjacent creek areas, and <br /> are not removed by the falcons. If this behavior continues over a period <br /> of one week, then it indicates that the birds are likely getting food at the <br /> landfill. <br />
