Wood waste, lumber, and/or brush are placed in the wood waste stockpile area, <br /> ground and processed in the wood chipper. The wood stockpile area is confined to a <br /> 100 foot by 150 foot area, 12 feet high as specified by the local fire agency. The piles <br /> must be kept a minimum of 100 feet from the transfer building. <br /> 3.1.5.3 MATERIALS PROCESSING AND VOLUME REDUCTION <br /> Wood waste, lumber, and brush are crushed with a Caterpillar tractor and <br /> processed through a wood chipper. The chipped wood is then deposited in 120 <br /> cy, and larger, trailers and sent to market. The wood grinding area is <br /> approximately 15,000 square feet. Currently, there is no shredding or <br /> transformation of materials at the RRF. <br /> Cardboard is the only large volume recovered material baled for market. Plastic is <br /> also baled, on a smaller scale. There is no compaction (other than occasional <br /> manual compaction of aluminum cans) at the RRF. <br /> 3.1.6 BURNING WASTES AND OPEN BURNING <br /> In accordance with 14 CCR, Section 17407.1(a), if burning wastes are <br /> inadvertently received at the RRF they are separated from other wastes by a <br /> loader to a safe area away from the unloading, transfer and processing areas <br /> where it can be spread and extinguished. Open burning of solid waste at the <br /> RRF is prohibited in accordance with 14 CCR, Section 17407.1(b). <br /> 3.1.7 HAZARDOUS, LIQUID AND SPECIAL WASTE EXCLUSION <br /> In accordance with 14 CCR, Section 17407.5 (b), the operator has implemented <br /> control measures as necessary to protect public health, safety and the <br /> environment. The operator institutes a hazardous screening program in the form <br /> of a load-checking program. In the event that a hazardous or prohibited waste is <br /> detected as part of the load checking program, discussed in Section 3.1.8, it will <br /> be either rejected or, if the hauler cannot be identified, separated or cordoned <br /> off until the appropriate authorities are contacted. Hazardous wastes that are <br /> discovered after the hauler has left the site are either 1) moved away from the <br /> working area, contained, and marked with the waste and generator information, if <br /> known, 2) moved to the hazardous waste storage locker (located at the southwest <br /> corner of the RRF - see Figure 9) for temporary (less than 90 days) storage prior to <br /> Forward,Inc.Resource Recovery Facility 3-9 <br /> Transfer/Processing Report <br /> (L:\Allied\2003.0146\Report\Final TPR\Sec3.doc:10/22/03;Revision 1: 11/20/20034-1-�1�f2893) <br /> ®RYAN A.STIRRAT&ASSOCIATES <br />
