Should burning waste <br /> be received at the facility, the wheeled loader or excavator shall push the material <br /> away from vehicles and tipping pad to an open area in front of the MRF/TS, C&D <br /> Processing Area, or Composting Operations Area. These open areas are paved <br /> and burning materials will be isolated where the fire will be controlled by fire <br /> extinguishers or spraying of water. <br /> Cleaning <br /> Building floors are cleaned using dry methods, such as sweeping. Wastes are <br /> removed from corners, underneath equipment, and other out-of-the-way locations <br /> by site personnel to prevent accumulated material from interfering with the safe <br /> operation of the facility. <br /> A routine site walk by facility personnel focuses on ensuring that wind-blown litter <br /> is picked up and a clean appearance maintained. The site is surrounded by <br /> fencing that prevents litter from blowing from the facility. <br /> Container Cleaning <br /> The facility uses 10- to 40-cubic-yard roll-off boxes and 3- to 6-cubic-yard bins for <br /> temporarily storing recovered loose materials or residuals before they are <br /> processed. If necessary, boxes and bins are swept whenever emptied to prevent <br /> cross-contaminating the new material with the old. <br /> Conveyor pits, debris boxes, and bins are swept out periodically to prevent debris <br /> from accumulating. <br /> Housekeeping <br /> In addition to the litter cleanup, the facility is inspected on a regular basis by facility <br /> personnel to ensure that supplies, parts, containers, and equipment are properly <br /> stored or contained so that they do not present a hazard or nuisance. <br /> 25 <br />
