INSPECTIONS <br /> The hazardous waste screening program is divided into three phases; an initial screening <br /> at the facility entrance, a visual inspection of the waste by the station personnel as the <br /> waste is being sorted and random load checking. <br /> PHASE I Initial Waste Screening Program <br /> Highly visible signs prohibiting the disposal of hazardous waste at the station are <br /> posted at the entrance. <br /> When possible, loads are visually inspected at the site entrance. The gate <br /> attendant is trained to recognize items that are not accepted at the station. A list <br /> of unacceptable items is posted in the gate house and is made available to the <br /> haulers. <br /> If hazardous materials are detected in a load, the gate keeper shall notify the driver <br /> that the load contains hazardous materials and that the station is prohibited from <br /> accepting hazardous waste. <br /> Before a vehicle is turned away from the site the following information shall be <br /> recorded; <br /> 1. Date <br /> 2. Time <br /> 3. The hauling firm or vehicle owner's name <br /> 4. The driver's name <br /> 5. The company telephone number <br /> 6. Vehicle license plate number <br /> 7. Source of the waste as stated by the vehicle driver <br /> This information will be recorded on the data form shown in Attachment I. This <br /> form will be signed by both the driver and the load-checking inspector. <br /> This information can be used to identify the hauler if the load is illegally dumped. <br /> PHASE 11 Visual Screening of tipping floor <br /> The second phase of screening wastes shall be conducted by the station personnel <br /> while sorting the waste. This is done not only to keep hazardous waste out of the <br /> landfill but for their own safety. <br /> The station personnel shall be trained to visually recognize hazardous wastes. <br /> They shall also be trained in the proper handling procedures for hazardous wastes. <br /> 3 <br />
