2-2 capacity is sufficient to handle periods during the operating day when the incoming tons per hour rate exceeds the rate of outgoing tons per hour. 2.1.4 Materials Removal When a full shipment of recycled materials is ready, it is transported to a secondary materials market. The remaining unrecyclable wastes are loaded into drop boxes or transfer trailers and transported to the landfill for disposal. These non-recoverable materials are removed as necessary. None of the materials are hazardous or pose a health risk. Mixed recyclables collected by route trucks are received at the transfer station. These materials are loaded onto large transfer trailers and hauled to a permitted recycler by an independent waste hauler. All materials are transported on Department of Transportation (DOT) approved vehicles. Under normal operations, wastes/recyclables are processed within 24 hours. The maximum residual municipal solid waste storage in the RRF building will be 24 hours or less depending on available storage capacity as required by 14 CCR, Section 17410.1(a)(2). 2.2 Hours of Operation (14 CCR. Section 18221.6 (e)) The RRF is not open to the public. The current operating hours are dependent upon the combined quantity of waste accepted at both the RRF and Forward Landfill. When the combined maximum tonnage reaches 8,668 tons during an operating day, the RRF and the landfill will close. The current permitted hours of operation for the RRF are from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. However, the RRF is open to receive materials from commercial customers Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. In addition, ancillary operations are also conducted on Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. During the week, the RRF accepts materials up until 4:30 p.m. in order to process, clean up, or both, before 6:00 p.m. The site is closed on Sundays and two holidays per year (New Year's Day and Christmas). The business hours for the company office (in Stockton) are from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. No equipment maintenance or operation is performed outside of the permitted hours of operation. Forward Inc. will provide 30 days prior notice to the LEA for any proposed change within the limitations of the current SWFP (i.e., not an extension of hours). A proposed change (i.e., extension) to these hours of operation would require a SWFP revision. 2.3 Facility Design (14 CCR. Sections 17406.2 and 18221.6 (c) and ( )) The following sections provide a description of the RRF design and design calculations in accordance with 14 CCR, Section 18221.6(g). 10 Forward Resource Recovery Facility SWT Engineering Transfer/Processing Report-November 2014 z:\projects\allied waste\forward\resource recovery facility\5 yr permit rvw 2013-14\tpr 2014\text\sec2.doc
