CALIFORNIA WASTE MANA "ENT BOARD r :- 1020 NINTH STREET, SUITE 300 "�✓ a ,d SACRAMENTO, CA 95614 44 JUN 121989 G,r Mr. Alan Biedermann San Joaquin Local Health District Division of Environmental Health P.O. Box 2009 Stockton, CA 95201 Subject: Austin Road Landfill Dear Mr. Biedermann: This letter will confirm our reply to the issues discussed on May 24, 1989 at the meeting held at this Board regarding the above facility. Present at the meeting were Martha Vazquez and Cy Armstrong of Board staff, yourself and Ed Padilla of the County Department of Environmental Health, and James Giottonini and Stephen Chen of the City of Stockton Department of Public Works. The first issue discussed was the permitted decrease in the amount of waste the facility can receive per day. The 1983 Solid Waste Facilities Permit (SWFP) limited the facility to receipt of 280,tons per day, and the 1977-SWFP allowed approximately 512 tonser day (605, 796 cubic yards K p per year) . After several discussions with you, and review of the document entitled, "Solid Waste Facility Permit Application - Austin Road Landfill Site, 9/77" it has been determined that an increase in tonnage was foreseen by regulating agencies and the applicant. The reason the daily tonnage was decreased in the 1983 SWFP will most likely remain a mystery, as neither your office nor this Board has been able to determine a cause for the reduction. We share your opinion that the SWFP should be mo ified to allow acceptance of up to 512 tons of waste per day. City of Stockton Public Works should submit an application for p rmit modification to your office. , The second issue discussed was an anticipated increase in the amount of waste the facility receives to approximately 800 tons of waste per day. An increase from 512 tons of waste per day to a proposed 800 tons of waste per day would constitute a significant change. At least 120 days prior to the proposed increase the operator should apply for a revision of the SWFP. Before this Board can c the issuance of a revised SWFP this Board must make a Finding of Co o mance (California Code of Regulations (CCR) Section 37932 et seq.-i.
