10/9/2017 Nonhazardous Ash Regulations(Title 14,Chapter 3,Article 5.8)
<br /> (b)Operations and facilities or portions thereof, located on intermediate cover on a solid waste landfill shall locate operations areas
<br /> on foundation substrate that is stabilized, either by natural or mechanical compaction, to minimize differential settlement, ponding,
<br /> soil liquefaction, or failure of pads or structural foundations.
<br /> (c)Operations and facilities or portions thereof, located on intermediate cover on a solid waste landfill shall be operated in a
<br /> manner that will not interfere with the operations of the landfill or with the closure or postclosure maintenance of the landfill.
<br /> Note:
<br /> Authority cited: Sections 40502,43020, and 43021, Public Resources Code.
<br /> Reference: Sections 43020 and 43021, Public Resources Code.
<br /> Section 17378.2. General Design Requirements.
<br /> (a)The design of a new nonhazardous ash transfer/processing operation or disposal/monofill facility shall utilize expert advice, as
<br /> appropriate, from persons competent in engineering, architecture, landscape design, traffic engineering, air quality control, and
<br /> design of structures.
<br /> (b) Each nonhazardous ash transfer/processing operation or nonhazardous ash disposal/monofill facility design shall be based on
<br /> appropriate data regarding the expected service area, anticipated nature and quantity of nonhazardous ash to be received,
<br /> climatological factors, physical settings, adjacent land use (existing and planned), types and number of vehicles anticipated to
<br /> enter the operation or facility, adequate off-street parking facilities for transfer vehicles, drainage control, the hours of operation
<br /> and other pertinent information. If the operation or facility is to be used by the general public, the design shall take account of
<br /> safety features that may be needed to accommodate such public use.
<br /> (c)The operation or facility shall be designed in such a manner as to restrict the unloading area to as small an area as practicable,
<br /> provide adequate control of windblown material, and minimize the creation of nuisances at the operation or facility. Other factors
<br /> that shall be taken into consideration are: dust control, noise control, public safety, and other pertinent matters related to the
<br /> protection of public health.
<br /> (d) Nonhazardous ash storage containers that are considered weathertight shall be durable, easily cleanable, designed for safe
<br /> handling, and constructed to prevent loss of wastes from the equipment during storage. Such equipment shall be nonabsorbent
<br /> and leak-resistant. Unloading areas shall be easily cleanable, designed for safe handling and constructed to prevent loss of
<br /> nonhazardous ash.

<br /> Authority cited: Sections 40502,43020, and 43021, Public Resources Code.
<br /> Reference: Sections 43020 and 43021, Public Resources Code.
<br /> Section 17378.3. Operating Standards
<br /> Each operator of a nonhazardous ash transfer/processing operation or disposal/monofill facility shall meet the following
<br /> requirements:
<br /> (a)All activities at the operation or facility shall be conducted in a manner that minimizes nuisances, noise impacts, or other public
<br /> health, safety and environmental hazards.
<br /> (b) Unauthorized human or animal access to the operation or facility shall be prevented.
<br /> (c)Traffic flow into, on, and out of the operation or facility shall be controlled in a safe manner.
<br /> (d)The operator shall take adequate measures to minimize and prevent safety hazards due to obscured visibility at the operation
<br /> or facility.
<br /> (e) Drainage shall be controlled at operations and facilities to protect the public health and safety and to prevent interference with
<br /> the operation.
<br /> (f)All operations and facilities open for public business shall post legible signs at all public entrances that include the following:
<br /> (1) name of operation or facility,
<br /> (2) name of the operator,
<br /> (3) hours of operation,
<br /> (4)a statement that only nonhazardous ash will be accepted, and
