WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS ORDER NO. R5-2014-0006 -5- <br />FORWARD INC. AND REPUBLIC SERVICES INC. <br />FORWARD CLASS II LANDFILL <br />SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY <br /> <br /> <br />auto shredder waste. These classified wastes may be discharged only in accordance with <br />Title 27, Resolution 93-62, and Subtitle D as required by this Order. <br />13. Water Code section 13173 defines “Designated Waste” as either of the following: <br />a. Hazardous waste that has been granted a variance from hazardous waste <br />management requirements pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 25143. <br />b. Nonhazardous waste that consists of, or contains, pollutants that, under ambient <br />environmental conditions at a waste management unit, could be released in <br />concentrations exceeding applicable water quality objectives or that could reasonably <br />be expected to affect beneficial uses of the waters of the state as contained in the <br />appropriate state water quality control plan. <br />Designated waste can be discharged only at Class I waste management units, or at <br />Class II waste management units which comply with Title 27 and have been approved by <br />the regional board for containment of the particular kind of waste to be discharged. <br />14. The Discharger proposes to continue to discharge wastes containing greater than one <br />percent (>1%) friable asbestos to the landfill units. These wastes are classified as <br />‘hazardous’ under California Code of Regulations, title 22 (Title 22). However, these wastes <br />do not pose a threat to groundwater quality and California Health and Safety Code, section <br />25143.7 permits their disposal in any landfill that has WDRs that specifically permit the <br />discharge, provided that the wastes are handled and disposed of in accordance with <br />applicable statutes and regulations. <br />15. DTSC has granted shredder waste a variance, for the purposes of disposal, from hazardous <br />waste management requirements pursuant to California Code or Regulations (CCR) Title 22. <br />Shredder waste is any non-recyclable wastes which results from the shredding of automobile <br />bodies (from which batteries, mufflers, and exhaust pipes have been removed), household <br />appliances, and sheet metal. <br />16. The Discharger proposes to discharger shredder waste to units with single composite liners. <br />17. The Discharger proposes to discharge cannery rinsate muds, dewatered sewage and water <br />treatment sludges to units with single composite liners. If disposed directly into the landfill, <br />sludge is mixed with refuse so that the mixed sludge will not exceed the moisture holding <br />capacity of the refuse. Rinsate muds and sludges containing excess moisture may be air- <br />dried on a bermed, compacted clay pad. When dry, the rinsate mud, sludge and underlying <br />soil impacted by contact with the sludge are disposed in the WMU. <br />18. The Discharger accepts soils contaminated with less than hazardous levels of petroleum <br />hydrocarbons. These soils are either treated in the land treatment unit, or discharged to <br />Class II landfill units. The Discharger has demonstrated that soil contaminated with less than <br />hazardous levels of petroleum hydrocarbons can be transformed to a ‘nonhazardous solid <br />waste’ in the treatment unit.
