Report of Composting Site Information This Report of Composting Site Information (RCSI) presents required information that is outlined in the Permit Desk Manual in italics, followed by the appropriate site-specific information, which fulfills the requirements. The Permit Desk Manual was issued by the California Integrated Waste Management Board (July 15, 1992). This RCSI for the For- ward, Inc. Compost Facility reflects revised October 1993 requirements, and in some cases revised August 1994 requirements. I. Facility Overview A. Introduction Provide a brief statement introducing thefacility. The following information should be included. Name and address of operator, name and address of the land owner, description of the area serviced by the facility, and a descrip- tion of daily operations to be conducted at the site X14 CCR 18220(c)J. This RCSI describes the design and operation of the Forward, Inc. (Forward) Compost Facility (Compost Facility). The Forward site is an existing solid waste disposal and resource recovery facility (RRF) located at 9999 South Austin Road, Manteca, California, approximately 7 miles southeast of Stockton, approximately 1 mile south of Arch Road and 2 miles north of French Camp Road, as shown in Figure 1.1. The site is wholly owned and operated by Forward. The landfill was permitted and opened in 1973. The RRF began operations in 1975. The 157-acre landfill site includes: (1) several landfill waste management units (WMUs) for waste treatment or disposal; (2) a RRF facility for waste separating, sorting, and recycling activities; and (3) storage and support areas. In addition, the site includes an interim stormwater control basin, easements for the South Fork of South Littlejohns Creek (10 acres) and the right-of-way for Austin Road (County of San Joaquin right-of-way), entrance facilities, and internal roads. Of the 157 acres at the landfill site, only one 8-acre portion was used for Class I (formerly Class H-1) hazardous waste disposal. This Class I unit, known as WMU A, was closed under permit in 1989 and is currently in postclosure monitoring. At present, only desig- nated and nonhazardous solid wastes are treated and/or disposed of at the facility in either Class I or Class III WMUs. Forward operates an RRF building and separation area, in the South Area, in compliance with SWFP No. 39-AA-020. The RRF site plan is shown in Figure 1.4. Currently, the materials recovered from the RRF include plastic, glass, cardboard, newspapers and paper, ferrous and nonferrous metals, wood, and other nonhazardous, inert materials (like foam). a oa10029B63.wp5/1 9/28/94 1
