Box 2009 (1601 East Hazelton Avenue) • Stockton, California 95201 �!FgR`� <br />(209)468-3400 <br />August 10, 1990 <br />City of Stockton <br />Community Development Department <br />Planning Division <br />6 East Lindsay Street <br />Stockton, California 95204 <br />Re: Expanded Initial Study, Austin Road Sanitary Landfill, 5 -Year <br />Permit Revision, Initial Study File #1525-90 <br />San Joaquin County Public Health Services has the following <br />comments concerning the Expanded Initial Study: <br />1. The 1987 Report of Waste Discharge and the November 1988 <br />Report of Disposal Site Information state that the site <br />accepts 3600 cubic yards per year of infectious waste, yet <br />infectious waste is not addressed in section 1.1, Project <br />Description. Whether this site plans to continue accepting <br />infectious waste or not, the issue needs to be addressed. <br />2. Paragraph 3 of section 1.1, Project Description, states that <br />the site will accept 20,000 cubic yards of sludge on a one <br />time basis. Is this in addition to the sludge that is already <br />being stored on site? Who has determined that the sludge is <br />not contaminated, and what criteria defines contamination? <br />3. No mention is made of a hazardous waste storage cabinet on <br />site. How will materials such as used batteries, <br />containerized paints, and solvents, etc. be isolated until <br />they can be removed from the landfill? <br />4. The Initial Study stated that recycling or salvaging is not <br />occurring at the site. Please state the future plans of these <br />operations. <br />5. How will the acceptance of 1200 tons per day of waste which is <br />more than double the 512 tons per day now being accepted <br />impact the remaining site life? Will the cumulative impacts <br />change? <br />6. What corrective measures will be taken to remediate any ground <br />water contamination problems? <br />A Division of San Joaquin County Health Care Services <br />
