WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS ORDER NO. R5-2014-0006 _5_ FORWARD INC.AND REPUBLIC SERVICES INC. FORWARD CLASS II LANDFILL SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY auto shredder waste. These classified wastes may be discharged only in accordance with Title 27, Resolution 93-62, and Subtitle D as required by this Order. 13.Water Code section 13173 defines "Designated Waste" as either of the following: a. Hazardous waste that has been granted a variance from hazardous waste management requirements pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 25143. b. Nonhazardous waste that consists of, or contains, pollutants that, under ambient environmental conditions at a waste management unit, could be released in concentrations exceeding applicable water quality objectives or that could reasonably be expected to affect beneficial uses of the waters of the state as contained in the appropriate state water quality control plan. Designated waste can be discharged only at Class I waste management units, or at Class II waste management units which comply with Title 27 and have been approved by the regional board for containment of the particular kind of waste to be discharged. 14.The Discharger proposes to continue to discharge wastes containing greater than one percent (>1%) friable asbestos to the landfill units. These wastes are classified as `hazardous' under California Code of Regulations, title 22 (Title 22). However, these wastes do not pose a threat to groundwater quality and California Health and Safety Code, section 25143.7 permits their disposal in any landfill that has WDRs that specifically permit the discharge, provided that the wastes are handled and disposed of in accordance with applicable statutes and regulations. 15.DTSC has granted shredder waste a variance, for the purposes of disposal, from hazardous waste management requirements pursuant to California Code or Regulations (CCR) Title 22. Shredder waste is any non-recyclable wastes which results from the shredding of automobile bodies (from which batteries, mufflers, and exhaust pipes have been removed), household appliances, and sheet metal. 16.The Discharger proposes to discharger shredder waste to units with single composite liners. 17.The Discharger proposes to discharge cannery rinsate muds, dewatered sewage and water treatment sludges to units with single composite liners. If disposed directly into the landfill, sludge is mixed with refuse so that the mixed sludge will not exceed the moisture holding capacity of the refuse. Rinsate muds and sludges containing excess moisture may be air- dried on a bermed, compacted clay pad. When dry, the rinsate mud, sludge and underlying soil impacted by contact with the sludge are disposed in the WMU. 18.The Discharger accepts soils contaminated with less than hazardous levels of petroleum hydrocarbons. These soils are either treated in the land treatment unit, or discharged to Class II landfill units. The Discharger has demonstrated that soil contaminated with less than hazardous levels of petroleum hydrocarbons can be transformed to a `nonhazardous solid waste' In the treatment unit.
