41 0 <br /> training session will focus on safety nearby the inerts. No additional signage is <br /> proposed with the IIPP training, where existing employees and new employees will <br /> be notified and trained. With the angles of repose at 2:1 and dirt berming around <br /> the other edges, the potential of falling inerts is prevented. <br /> Manual labor will not be sorting the inerts. On the north end of the pile, upon <br /> dumping, a front-end loader will spread the inert out on the ground, not in a pile. A <br /> trained worker, with rebar cutters — or welding torch for larger pieces, will cut the <br /> metal off the inerts while the front-end loader is parked and non-operational. Only <br /> after the workers have left the inert processing area, will the front-end loader <br /> operator push the material up to a 2:1 on the north slope. <br /> 3. Appliance Storage <br /> The types of appliance accepted at the "Appliance Storage" area would be <br /> classified as "metallic discards" that have special materials that need to be <br /> processed, but not including u-waste or e-waste. Metallic discards have enough <br /> metal to be marketable and contains special materials, such as Freon and mercury <br /> switches, that need to be removed prior to processing. At the Tracy Facility, the <br /> majority of metallic discards are kitchen appliances such as stoves, ovens, and <br /> refrigerators, and laundry items such as washers and dryers. There are occasional <br /> hot water heaters and wood burning stoves, which are checked for special wastes. <br /> According to LEA Advisory No., 11, metallic discards are the following: <br /> "A metallic discard is defined as any large metal article or product or parts <br /> thereof, including metal furniture, machinery, major appliances, electronic <br /> products, vehicles, and wood burning stoves. This law focuses on items <br /> that contain enough metal to be economically feasible to salvage and items <br /> that contain special materials that require removal prior to recycling". <br /> 4. Compost Evaporation Pond <br /> The pond has never filled in the 12 years of operations since the design is for the <br /> 100-year storm with two feet of freeboard. Therefore the contingency plan has not <br /> been exercised to date. However, the compost leachate has been tested. Attached <br /> is a set of lab results from compost leachate in the pond from early 2006 focusing <br /> on pesticides where it is mainly non-detect. <br /> We have researched compost leachate run-off from various studies where the <br /> strength of the compost leachate from green material feedstock is weak, coupled <br /> with large storm events that would further dilute the run-off. The compost leachate <br /> would be accepted at any wastewater treatment plant. A study from Oregon is <br /> attached, and further studies can be referenced in the upcoming CEQA document <br /> for the SWFP Revision. <br /> 2 <br />
