Weber Avenue, Third Floor <br />Stockton, California 95202-2708 <br />Subject: Revised Progress Report for Amended Notice and Order No. 03-01 <br />Forward Landfill, Facility Number 39 -AA -0015 <br />Dear Ms. Heran: <br />The letter is response to the Amended Notice and Order issued February 2, 2004 by the <br />San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department to the Forward Landfill located at <br />9999 S. Austin Road, Manteca, California. The following is a progress report on the <br />status of the landfill gas (LFG) system expansion, corrective action plan, current <br />compliance status and the most recent monitoring data with the concentration of LFG i? <br />each extraction (monitoring) well. Also, an update of efforts the facility has taken since <br />the original Notice and Order was issued (October 2003) is included. <br />LFG System Background <br />In 2002 the LFG extraction system and flare station were installed at the Forward <br />Landfill (site). The LFG flare station is located at the northeast comer of the site to <br />incinerate the extracted LFG. The flare is rated for a maximum of 2000 standard cubic <br />feet per minute of LFG at 50 percent methane. <br />The first phase of the.LFG collection system covered the entire northern portion of the <br />site (former Austin Road Landfill) and Waste Management Unit (WMU) "B" (southwest <br />corner of the site) and a portion of cells WMU D-93 and D-95 (center of site) at the site. <br />An 18 -inch header pipe was re.uted from the flare station to the southeast corner of the <br />site (along Austin Road) to extract LFG from WMU "B". The 1 -inch header pipe was <br />also extended along the southern boundary of WMU "B". The 18 -inch header pipe was <br />installed westerly from the flare station along the northern boundary of the site and south <br />along a portion of the west site boundary. The intent is to construct a LFG header pipe <br />around the entire site to provide a complete loop. <br />104 <br />
