Project Description -Report of Composting Site Information <br /> Tracy Material Recovery Facility and Transfer Station <br /> 307035. MacArthur Drive, Tracy, California 95377 <br /> N%0-1 Technology Application Section 2 <br /> Windrow, elongated (co-collected organics: up to 20% food waste) <br /> The TMR/TS and CF proposes to implement Co-Collected Organics Windrow <br /> Composting to utilize the open windrow method to process and compost co-collected <br /> organics (CCO). A blend of green material and food waste not to exceed 20% food <br /> waste materials will be used. This windrow method has been evaluated and proven <br /> effective in order to manage organic material in the most responsible and efficient <br /> manner while providing demonstrated adequate environmental controls when performed <br /> as described. <br /> General Information <br /> All incoming CCO feedstock will be commingled at the point of generation from <br /> residential areas via the use of curbside greenwaste 'toters'. Prior to reaching the <br /> transfer facility or the compost facility, the franchised haulers of CCO feedstock will <br /> work with the municipal jurisdiction to educate the public as to what types of food <br /> wastes are acceptable and what is not acceptable. These wastes are highlighted in <br /> Table 5. Many communities institute a notification system with the generator whereby <br /> contaminated loads are not collected and are rejected at the curb. The CCO feedstock <br /> will come to the facility where the feedstock is ground on-site and then placed in <br /> windrows. <br /> ' Table 5 <br /> Typical acceptable items for Co-Collected Organics programs <br /> Yes No <br /> All Residentially-Generated Inert materials and plastic products <br /> Commingled Food Waste Products including: <br /> with Green Material including: • Plastic (bags, containers, Styrofoam <br /> Fruit, vegetable, breads, cereal, etc) <br /> dairy a Glass <br /> • Meat, fish (including bones) .
