WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS ORDER NO. R5-2003-0049 -3- <br /> FORWARD INC. AND ALLIED WASTE INDUSTRIES <br /> FOR OPERATION OF <br /> FORWARD CLASS II LANDFILL <br /> SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> discharge requirements that specifically permit the discharge,provided that the wastes are <br /> handled and disposed of in accordance with applicable statutes and regulations. <br /> 14. DTSC has granted a shredder waste variance, for the purposes of disposal, from hazardous <br /> waste management requirements pursuant to Title 22 of the CCR. Shredder waste is any <br /> non-recyclable wastes which results from the shredding of automobile bodies (from which <br /> batteries,mufflers, and exhaust pipes have been removed),household appliances, and sheet <br /> metal. <br /> 15. The Discharger proposes to discharger shredder waste to units with single composite liners. <br /> 16. The Discharger proposes to discharge dewatered sewage and water treatment sludges to units <br /> with single composite liners. If disposed directly into the landfill sludge is mixed with <br /> refuse, the mixed sludge will not exceed the moisture holding capacity of the refuse. Sludges <br /> containing excess moisture may be air-dried on a bermed compacted clay pad. When dry the <br /> sludge and underlying soil are disposed in the WMU. <br /> 17. The Discharger accepts soils contaminated with less than hazardous levels of petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons. These soils are either treated in the land treatment unit, or discharged to Class <br /> II landfill units. The Discharger has demonstrated that soil contaminated with less than <br /> hazardous levels of petroleum hydrocarbons can be transformed to a `nonhazardous solid <br /> waste' in the treatment unit. <br /> 18. Leachate from the landfill units and liquid wastes described in Discharge Specification B.3. <br /> will be discharged to three Class II surface impoundments that are planned for the site. Class <br /> II impoundment WMU F North is located at the southwest corner of the existing Forward <br /> Landfill. A second Class II impoundment will be constructed south of South Branch Creek <br /> and a third Class II impoundment will be constructed southwest of the old Austin Road <br /> Landfill. If leachate production exceeds impoundment capacity, excess leachate will either <br /> be contained in temporary on-site above ground tanks or will be transported to Stockton <br /> Municipal Utility District wastewater treatment plant for off-site disposal. <br /> 19. WMU-A, an 8-acre unit on the northeast corner of the old Forward Landfill is a closed Class <br /> I (hazardous waste) landfill unit. Documented hazardous waste discharged to WMU-A <br /> include metals, sulfides,hydroxides, kiln waste,hydrocarbons,phosphoric acid and other <br /> sludges, acids and bases, filter cake from metal plating operations,pesticides and herbicide <br /> residues,wood preserving chemicals, formaldehyde,phenolic resins, and rotary drilling <br /> fluids. WMU-A stopped accepting waste in 1984 and was closed in 1989. <br /> 20. Waste management units at Forward are described in the following table: <br />
