Due to the growing problem of the illegal dumping of hazardous waste at landfills and transfer stations, hazardous waste screening programs are now required by the California Waste Management Board Facilities Permit and the Regional Water Quality Control Board Waste Discharge Requirements. The California Waste Management Board requires that a hazardous waste screening program be described in the Report of Station Information(RSI). The screening program should consist of the following activities: * Inspection of random in-coming loads * Regular visual inspection of the wastes deposited at the facility * Training of facility personnel in hazardous waste recognition and proper hazardous waste handling procedures * Reporting incidents of unlawful disposal to specific agencies * Installation of signs at the facility entry way including that no hazardous waste are accepted The program for implementing these requirements at the California Waste Removal Systems, Inc. Transfer Station and Recycle Center is contained in Appendix C. The expansion will, however, create additional runoff from paved surfaces. Due to the increase in motor vehicle traffic and repair on the site once construction is completed, there will likely be an increase in the overall amount of water in contact with refuse, oil, and grease. Wastewater is kept separate from clean stormwater as indicated in item number 3 (Pg. 23) of this checklist and thus will not enter the storm drains. Any solid material that may get into the storm system catch basins is collected in debris traps and prevented from entering the storm drains. Yes Maybe No 11. Population.
