INSPECTIONS <br /> The hazardous waste screening program is divided into three phases; <br /> an initial screening at the facility entrance, a visual inspection <br /> of the waste by the station personnel as the waste is being sorted <br /> and random load checking. <br /> PHASE I Initial Waste Screening Program <br /> Highly visible signs prohibiting the disposal of hazardous <br /> waste at the station are posted at the entrance. <br /> When possible, loads are visually inspected at the site <br /> entrance. The gate attendant is trained to recognize items <br /> that are not accepted at the station. A list of unacceptable <br /> items is posted in the gate house and is made available to the <br /> haulers. <br /> If hazardous materials are detected in a load, the gate keeper <br /> shall notify the driver that the load contains hazardous <br /> materials and that the station is prohibited from accepting <br /> hazardous waste. <br /> Before a vehicle is turned away from the site the following <br /> information shall be recorded, <br /> 1. Date <br /> 2. Time <br /> 3 . The hauling firm or vehicle owner's name <br /> 4. The driver's name . <br /> 5. The company telephone number <br /> 6. Vehicle license plate number <br /> 7. Source of the waste as stated by the vehicle driver <br /> This information will be recorded on the data form shown in <br /> Attachment I. This form will be signed by both the driver and <br /> the load-checking inspector. <br /> This information can be used to identify the hauler if the <br /> load is illegally dumped. <br /> PHASE II Visual Screening of tipping floor <br /> The second phase of screening wastes shall be conducted by the <br /> station personnel while sorting the waste.
