#,W,CITY OF STOCKTON AZ# DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS CITY HALL 425 N. EL DORADO STREET STOCKTON, CA 95202-1997 June 13, 1996 Carol Oz Public Health Services, Environmental Health Division P.O. Box 388 Stockton, CA 95201-0388 County Health REVISIONS TO ALTERNATE DAILY COVER/GREEN WASTE GRINDING PROJECT The purpose of this letter is to propose revisions to the alternate daily coverGgreen waste grinding (ADC) project. The proposed changes will be incorporated into the "Demonstration Project at Austin Road and French Camp Landfills" dated October 1995. There are several issues that need to be addressed. These include: (1) the quantity of ground green waste available, (2) use of the Covertech C-440 (tarp), (3) amount of ground waste allowable in the ADC, and (4) communication protocols. (1) The quantity of ground green waste brought to the French Camp Landfill is seasonal and varies throughtout the year as illustrates by the attached graph. The City has no other source from which to obtain green waste in order to increase the amount available for daily cover. Therefore, a change in the operating plan is needed to account for the periodic shortages in green waste. The City proposes to reduce the size of the active face at the Austin Road Landfill from 75' x i Ou' to 60'x 100'. This wih reduce the amount of green waste needed to provide daily cover by approximately 20 percent. In addition, ground green waste will be stockpiled at the Austin Road fapility until a sufficient amount is available to provide daily cover over the entire active face. Stockpiling of ground green material will also be done at the French Camp landfill. Notification of when the green waste will be used for daily cover will be provided to the Enforcement Agency to allow for inspection.. (2) On those days where sufficient amounts of ground green waste is not available to provide daily cover at the Austin Road Landfill, the City proposes to use the tarp. The reduction in active face size will correspond to an overlapping of two of the 60' x 60' tarps. In addition, a third tarp will also be onsite to serve as a backup. The tarp would become the primary backup to the ground green waste as is "STOCKTON ... CALIFORNIA'S SUNRISE SEAPORT"
