This OIMP will be <br />maintained on-site and revised as necessary to reflect any changes in the design or <br />operation of the site, A copy of the revisions will be provided to the enforcement <br />agency within 30 days of the changes. In addition, this OIMP will be reviewed annually <br />to determine if any revisions are necessary. <br />This facility expects to receive 20,000 tons of greenwaste per year from commercial <br />landscape maintenance. Some fruit processing remains will be received on a seasonal <br />basis. No more than 12,500 cubic yards of feedstock, fruit remains, compost or chipped <br />and ground material will be on-site at any one time, The feedstock is processed within <br />fourteen days after receipt; fruit processing remains will be processed immediately. The <br />compostable materials remain on-site for ninety days while being processed in a <br />composting operation, Finished products will be available for sale within thirty days <br />after processing. <br />I. Odor Monitoring Protocol <br />A. Proximity of Odor Receptors <br />The closest receptors are site personnel and material delivery drivers. <br />The closest off-site receptors are a few residences within a five hundred foot radius of <br />the site. There are no schools, hospitals or other public facilities within a five hundred <br />foot radius of the site. <br />719rd <br />Each day the operator will evaluate on-site odors and operations for potential release of <br />objectionable odors. If questionable or objectionable on-site odors are detected by site <br />personnel, operations personnel will implement the following protocol: <br />1. Investigate and determine the likely source of the odor. <br />2. Implement all available on-site management practices to resolve the odor <br />even and immediately take steps to reduce the odor -generating capacity of <br />on-site material. <br />3. Determine if the odor traveled off-site by surveying the site perimeter and <br />noting existing wind pattems. <br />
