2.0 COMPOST PROCESSING SITE DESIGN, MONITORING, AND SITE IMPROVEMENTS If the composting site is to be located on a closed landfill, adequate steps must be taken to avoid adverse impact to the closed landfill, including cover materials, monitoring systems, and any other control systems. A description of all impacts and all mitigation measures must be included in this section. Composting operations will not occur on an existing or closed landfill: however, the Composting Facility will be located on an area permitted for future WMUs. 2.1 Composting Site Design This section describes the design plans required for all operational aspects of the facility [14 CCR 18220(d)]. The schematic drawings should reflect the facility layout and general dimensions of all processes utilized in the production of compost including but not limited to unloading, storage, processing, parking, and loading areas. 14CCR,Section 17873(a) requires that the facility design requirements set forth in this section be approved by an engineer registered by the State of California. Please review the engineering report to ensure that all the requirements in 14 CCR 17873 have been met. In addition to the design plans, a description should be provided which further describes the operations. In any case, the description should make reference to the appropriate attachment or design plan which has been included. 2.1.1 Title Sheet Provide a title sheet with vicinity and location maps and a list of the drawings included in the design package. A title sheet with a location map and a list of the drawings is included in the Exhibits section of the 1994 RCSI. 2.1.2 Site Plan The site plan should be at a scale of 1 " = 200'. (Other map scales may be appropriate if the resultant map is larger than 30 x 42 inches or if it is too small to provide sufficient detail to clearly illustrate the facility layout.) Include distances to and location of hydrants/outlets for water intended for fire control and moisture for compost piles/Windrows, equipment washdown or supply. The site plan should delineate the legal property limits of the site for which clear title is held by the applicant and/or any parcels leased [14 CCR 18220(a)]. The site plan must be accurately drawn to scale and identify adjacent land uses, structures (buildings, water wells, sewage disposal systems, leach lines, power and telephone lines, canals, etc.) and easements on-site and within 1,000 feet of the site boundaries.
