W <br />April 8, 2014 <br />All site personnel who work in permanent structures will be trained to use <br />and respond to the landfill gas monitoring and alarm system. <br />Current Status: Forward installed and expanded the existing landfill gas <br />control system in 2002 and 2003 to comply with State and Federal <br />regulations. Forward has added additional control measures on an annual <br />basis and installed additional landfill gas control measures in 2013. The new <br />landfill gas to energy facility in the northeast corner of the site, near the <br />existing flare, has been constructed and Ameresco is operating the facility. <br />Site personnel are trained to use and respond to the landfill gas monitoring <br />and alarm system. <br />Identified in EIR: <br />Landfill gas monitoring shall include volatile organic compounds in order to <br />determine the amount of contaminant recovery, and control potential <br />exposure to on site personnel. <br />Current Status: Landfill gas monitoring is conducted on a routine basis and <br />includes the analysis of volatile organic compounds. These results are <br />provided to the RWQCB. <br />g. 37 (E.6) <br />Proposed as Part of the Project: <br />The landfill operator will follow legally required daily or alternative cover <br />practices. <br />The landfill will continue to ban intact tires (which collect water and serve <br />as a breeding ground for vectors) and large dead animals from disposal at <br />the landfill. <br />Existing measures to discourage birds from the landfill will be continued. <br />Appropriate landfill personnel will periodically monitor the landfill for the <br />presence of vectors, and landfill inspections will be documented in the <br />landfill operations administrative file. <br />Current Status: Forward follows legally required daily or alternative cover <br />practices and bans intact tires and large dead animals. Bird abatement <br />measures will be continued and the landfill continue to be monitored and <br />documented for the presence of vectors. A falconer is used to assist- in <br />deterring birds at the site. <br />Identified r <br />Page 15 <br />
