n E. The operator of the facility shall develop an Odor Management Impact Plan (OIMP) as described in Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Section 17863.4. The plan needs to be submitted prior to operation of the facility. 17863.4. Odor Impact Minimization Plan. (a) All compostable material handling operations and facilities shall prepare, implement and maintain a site-specific odor impact minimization plan. A complete plan shall be submitted to the EA with the EA Notification or permit application. (b) Odor impact minimization plans shall provide guidance to on-site operation personnel by describing, at a minimum, the following items. If the operator will not be implementing any of these procedures, the plan shall explain why it is not necessary. (1) An odor monitoring protocol which describes the proximity of possible odor receptors and a method for assessing odor impacts at the locations of the possible odor receptors; and, (2) A description of meteorological conditions effecting migration of odors and/or f transport of odor-causing material off-site. Seasonal variations that effect wind velocity and direction shall also be described; and, (3)A complaint response protocol; and, (4) A description of design considerations and/or projected ranges of optimal operation to be employed in minimizing odor, including method and degree of aeration, moisture content of materials, feedstock characteristics, airborne emission production, process water distribution, pad and site drainage and permeability, equipment reliability, personnel training, weather event impacts, utility service interruptions, and site specific concerns; and, (5) A description of operating procedures for minimizing odor, including aeration, moisture management, feedstock quality, drainage controls, pad maintenance, wastewater pond controls, storage practices (e.g., storage time and pile geometry), contingency plans (i.e., equipment, water, power, and personnel), biofiltration, and tarping. (c) The odor impact minimization plan shall be revised to reflect any changes, and a copy shall be provided to the EA, within 30 days of those changes. (d) The odor impact minimization plans shall be reviewed annually by the operator to determine if any revisions are necessary. i (e) The odor impact minimization plan shall be used by the EA to determine whether or not the operation or facility is following the procedures established by the operator. If the EA determines that the odor impact. Minimization plan is not being followed; the EA may issue a Notice and Order(pursuant to section 18304) to require the operator to either comply with the odor impact minimization plan or to revise it. (f) If the odor impact minimization plan is being followed, but the odor impacts are still i occurring, the EA may issue a Notice and Order(pursuant to section 18304) requiring the i operator to take additional reasonable and feasible measures to minimize odors. i Note: !
