Materials Receiving (1) Materials Check-in and Weighing Materials check-in and weighing procedure for the expanded Station Project will be conducted in the same fashion as current procedures. The only difference is that the scale house and scales will be at the new locations shown on Drawing RSI-2. Therefore, the procedures described below, in general are the same as current practices. Materials will be checked in and weighed at the front gate located as shown on Drawing RSI-2. As with current Station operations, the scale house operator will process transactions for both Automated Disposal and Non-Automated Disposal customers on the computer located the scalehouse. The operator will verbally and visually obtain information on incoming Non- Automated Disposal loads and manually enter the volume of the load as well as other data into the computer. The computer stores the data and processes an invoice for the customer. The transactions for the Automated Disposal customers will continue to be processed by the computer. The vehicle loaded weight will be compared to the tare weight stored in the computer in order to record the transaction. The data for all transactions will be stored daily on floppy disks at the Station. The disks are currently transported to the County offices where they are loaded into a computer and used to compile waste quantity reports and invoices. The County office is equipped with a computer with the same program as the Station scalehouse computer. (The Station computer can also run daily reports as a check). The County offices compiles monthly reports and invoices which are mailed to the Automated Disposal customers. (2) Hazardous Waste Screening Program The Hazardous Waste (HW) Exclusion Program for the Station, written by the Solid Waste Division (a copy is in Appendix I), will continue to be practiced at the expanded Station. The exclusion program is designed to visually observe unloading operations and exclude HW from being unloaded. A load checker records information on all site users and checks each load for HW. A double containment storage locker is used to temporarily store materials that escaped detection by the exclusion program. These materials will be transported off-site by a licensed hauler for disposal. The locker is clearly marked. (3) Unloading Unloading of waste is performed by site users inside the Transfer Building on the 07549001.012 33 September 23,1993
