W <br />September 27, 2010 <br />TZ i t9T 1911 [•IZ I <br />This document presents the North County Winterization Plan for 2010/2011. The <br />objective of this plan is to provide six months of operation in wet weather. Some details <br />of this plan may be revised to address conditions that may develop as winter approaches. <br />Winter refuse disposal is planned for three areas. The first area is the New Winter Pad in <br />Module 4 (Figure 1). This winter pad is comprised of compacted and oiled road base to <br />provide an accessible refuse disposal area when surface conditions prevent access to <br />other areas of the landfill during the winter. Refuse will be pushed off this pad to the west <br />and north. The New Winter Pad is intended to be the primary wet weather pad through <br />the winter of 2010-11. <br />The second area is the Lower Winter Pad in Module 4 (Figure 1). This winter pad is also <br />comprised of compacted and oiled road base to provide an accessible refuse disposal <br />area when° surface conditions prevent access to other areas of the landfill. Refuse will be <br />pushed off this pad to the west. The lower winter pad is intended to be the secondary <br />wet weather pad through the winter of 2010-11. <br />The third area is the Upper Winter Pad on Module 3. This pad has been available for use <br />for several winters and is shrinking as the landfill lifts exceed 160 feet in elevation. This <br />pad will be available for use this winter for constructing the upper lifts during wet weather. <br />Refuse will be pushed south from this pad (Figure 1). <br />Planned erosion control prevention measures include: <br />1 Placement of organic material reclaimed from the windrow areas (windrow material), <br />anti -erosion mats, seed and starter fertilizer on the southern surfaces of module 4 <br />where existing mats are not present. On areas of this slope where existing mats are <br />present but vegetation is sparse, windrow material, seed and starter fertilizer will be <br />placed (Figure 1). <br />2 The shoulder at the top of the southern slopes of Module 4 will include berms <br />directing the surface flow to downcomer pipes. These downcomers will conduct <br />North County Sanitary Landfill <br />Winterization Plan 2010/11 <br />San Joaquin County Public Works <br />Solid Waste Division <br />
