AMENDMENT TO THE APPLICATION FOR PERMIT TO OPERATE <br /> FRENCH CAMP DISPOSAL SITE <br /> Item #1 Compaction Density: <br /> The operation at the French Camp disposal site does not employ <br /> compaction equipment. What compaction is accomplished is done <br /> with the D-8 used for pushing. This leaves a relatively low <br /> density of approximately 600 pounds per cubic yard. Subsequent <br /> to the placement of the debris or refuse that is depositedat <br /> this site, approximately 3 feet of fill is placed on the debris. <br /> The effect of this overburden on the refuse compaction in a <br /> three-year period brings this in-place density to approximately <br /> 1200 pounds per cubic yard. <br /> Item #2 Frequency and Depth of Cover: <br /> Daily cover is applied to the refuse deposited at this site. <br /> The ultimate depth of this cover is three feet. <br /> Item #3 - Standby Equipment: <br /> This facility is operated in conjunction with the Austin Road <br /> landfill site and a crawler tractor, Caterpillar D-8, is <br /> available for use in emergencies.. The crawler tractor regularly <br /> used at the site is a D-8 Caterpillar crawler tractor, and parts <br /> are available from Holt Bros . in Stockton, California. <br /> Item #4 - Total Acreage of the Site: <br /> The total area of the French Camp disposal site is 66 acres. <br />
