Ed Padilla August 27, 1991 Page 3 necessary, the pad will be recompacted and oiled the following year to maintain pad integrity. The pad and access road are shown on the plan and are designated by a dot matrix. The dimensions of the pad are 150 x 200 feet and provides sufficient maneuverability for vehicle travel and unloading operations. III. DRAINAGE The main objective of the drainage plan is to eliminate washouts. Problem areas can be found along the southeastern and southwestern portion of the Landfill where runoff meets a 3 to 1 side slope. In the southeastern portion of the Landfill, drainage will consist of berms and a down drain. The berms will be located along the top edge of existing fill areas. The berms will direct runoff to a down drain inlet located at approximately N92+40/E105+00. The down drain will extend to the toe of the Landfill where runoff will continue offsite into Corral Hollow Creek. Rip rap will be placed as needed. In the southwestern portion of the Landfill a 20 foot bench will be constructed with a "V" ditch. Run off will be directed to a second down drain with the inlet at approximately N88+80/E100+75. The outlet will be at the toe of the Landfill and runoff will continue offsite into Corral Hollow Creek. Rip rap will be placed as needed. Areas where ponding may occur, such as depressions due to settlement, will be filled with cover soil to ensure adequate drainage from the working fill area. Also, if natural runoff impedes normal operations, then that portion of land will be graded to provide for proper drainage. In the unlikely occurrence that ponding does occur, storm water will be pumped and drained to the ditch along the perimeter of the fill area using a portable pump. It is estimated that approximately 20,000 cubic yards of cover material will be needed during winter operations for the years 1991-93. Daily cover needed for operations during these years will be imported prior to winter operation needs. Daily cover is to be stockpiled with respect to the sequence of Landfill operations.
