a <br /> Project Description <br /> Tracy Material Recovery Facility and Transfer Station Expansion <br /> 30703 S. MacArthur Drive, Tracy, California 95377 <br /> OVERALL OPERATIONS PLAN <br /> Traffic Flow Plan to Tipping Pads <br /> The Traffic Plan in Attachment A illustrates the general traffic patterns onsite. Trucks <br /> with full loads enter the site from South MacArthur Drive and proceed to the truck <br /> scale(s) alongside the scale house. After being weighed, trucks hauling commercial <br /> and residential recyclables are directed to the Material Recovery Facility tipping area <br /> where a spotter backs them in to dump their materials. Trucks carrying municipal solid <br /> wastes are directed to the Transfer Station tipping area where a spotter directs them to <br /> dump their wastes. Transfer trucks hauling solid waste to be transferred off-site enter <br /> under the loading bays (located at the southeast corner of the MRF/TS building) via a <br /> ramp beginning at the west side of the site and proceeding along the south side of the <br /> building. The trucks then exit from the loading bay via a ramp located to the east of the <br /> MRF/TS building and directly onto the main access road, proceeding across the <br /> outbound scale(s) and exiting onto South Macarthur Drive through the main gate. <br /> Trucks carrying solid waste will be weighed and tipped onto the floor of the Transfer <br /> Station by commercial vehicles and self-haul vehicles. There will be signage and a <br /> spotter within the Transfer Station to direct traffic safely. Limited manual floor sorting will <br /> occur pulling out bulky wood and toads of cardboard. Wheel loaders operatingin the <br /> building push the� g p e munici at solid waste into waiting transfer trailer <br /> in the loading bay <br /> below on the west side of the building. <br /> Trucks carrying green material, construction and demolition wastes, and inert debris are <br /> weighed at the truck scale(s) shown on the site plan. The green material is directed to <br /> the Compost Facility Tipping Pad to dump the load, and the C&D wastes and inert <br /> debris are directed to the C&D Operations Area and Inert Operations Area, respectively, <br /> to dump their wastes. <br /> Material Recovery <br /> Material Recovery Facility: <br /> Recycling occurs within the fully enclosed Material Recovery Facility. Material brought <br /> to the site will consist of residential source-separated recyclables with contamination <br /> that may or may not have less than 10% contamination with residuals or other physical <br />€ contamination that cannot be recycled. No household hazardous waste or other <br /> hazardous waste will be knowingly accepted at the site. <br /> The project is projected to be capable of recovering at least 80% of all source-separated <br /> residential material that is processed at the facility. The material will be sorted and <br /> separated by type. Some material will be condensed or baled. Other material will be <br /> temporary stored and eventually transported off-site to markets. The residual material <br /> that has no secondary value will be conveyed to the floor of the transfer station and <br /> transferred for disposal to a permitted solid waste disposal facility within the region. <br /> 22 <br />� 170.18.03 CUP Project Description 050710 <br />
