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 /> Note: <br /> Authority cited: Sections 40502,43020, and 43021, Public Resources Code. <br /> Reference: Sections 43020 and 43021, Public Resources Code. <br /> Section 17378.3.
