Project Description <br /> F Tracy Material Recovery Fadlity and Transfer Station <br /> 30703 S. MacArthur Drive, Tracy, California 95377 <br /> • Mandated Commercial Rep clin : Five million metric tons of CO2 <br /> equivalent reductions are required statewide by 2020. This project <br /> proposes the convenience of mixed commercial recycling collection and <br /> processing to service the commercial sector. <br /> Anaerobic Digestion (AD),_ AD projects are to reduce two million metric <br /> i tons of CO2 equivalent reductions statewide by 2020, where up to 90 <br /> facilities at 200 tons per days will be needed by 2020. Tracy MRF & TS <br /> will be producing organic feedstock from commercial food waste for AD <br /> facilities in the region. <br /> • Compost Use: The use of compost is to reduce 2 million metric tons of <br /> CO2 equivalent reductions by 2020. Green waste composting is already <br /> occurring on-site, and is proposed to be expanded to include food waste <br /> composting as well. <br /> • Renewable Energy: The use of renewable energy from 20% to 33% by <br /> 2020 is mandated to reduce 21.2 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent <br /> reductions statewide by 2020. The Tracy MRF & TS will become energy <br /> self-sufficient by adding a 1 mega-watt biomass gasification unit and up to <br /> 800 kilo-watt of solar panel on top of the buildings. <br /> i <br /> r The Project will greatly assist the City of Tracy and San Joaquin County to <br /> reduce their carbon footprint to 1990 levels by 2020, and provide the community <br /> with critical technological components to achieve energy, and economic and <br /> environmental sustainability. <br /> E The planning horizon for Tracy MRF & TS Facility regarding AB 939 will have <br /> lasted 21 years from 1990 to 2011. The planning horizon to address AB 32 for <br /> the Tracy MRF & TS Facility is planned for 18 years to the year 2030, taking the <br /> Facility part way between the defined plans of 2020, and the vision of high <br /> recycling and zero waste by 2050, where the greenhouse gases are to be <br /> reduced to 80% of the 1990 levels. <br /> { <br /> '1rs <br /> i <br /> il�i,iri�to 79' 4 <br /> �leptioit of Stoong PUm Measures Eiilsstans <br /> 2W9 2010 2011 20 <br /> scovin" Plate Meemn a lwnplemerrailon <br /> AdDlAed VWbtk Toward <br /> 12M 2050 <br /> 170.18 CUP Project Des 050710 ... <br /> ES-5 <br /> i <br />
