If this equipment is <br />not available, Forward will lease or rent the appropriate equipment from local contractors or <br />suppliers. Forward has established contract agreements with local contractors and <br />suppliers to provide equipment, as required. <br />These contractors are located within the greater Stockton area. In addition, equipment utilized <br />at the Forward Landfill can also be utilized in the event of multiple equipment failures. <br />3.3.4 Housekeeping <br />Housekeeping is accomplished by permanent employee duty assignments with daily <br />inspections to assure compliance. The RRF/Compost Facility does not accept or maintain <br />fuel drums or tires. The parts are stored in a trailer on the south side of the RRF building. <br />All of the equipment at the RRF/Compost Facility is needed for RRF/Compost Facility <br />operations. All inoperable equipment is promptly repaired. All scrap metal that is generated <br />via maintenance activities is salvaged. Loose materials and litter cleanup is performed on a <br />regular basis. The RRF/Compost Facility is screened from Austin Road on the south and <br />west sides by a 5-foot high vegetated earthen berm. <br />3.4 Materials Handling Activities <br />3.4.1 Confined Unloading <br />The unloading area will have appropriate signs and will be staffed by Forward personnel, <br />who will direct loads to the appropriate areas. The unloading areas are shown in Figure 2. <br />The load inspection process begins at the RRF. All loads are visually inspected for <br />prohibited waste in the green and wood waste screening and storage area. If hazardous or <br />prohibited wastes are detected, they must be removed by the customer/hauler at their own <br />expense by a licensed hazardous waste hauler and disposed of at a licensed hazardous <br />waste disposal site. If the customer that hauled the hazardous or prohibited waste is not <br />known, the area is marked off to limit access and site personnel are restricted from that <br />area. The San Joaquin County Office of Emergency Services and other appropriate agencies <br />are notified of the incident. The appropriate emergency service agency will handle the <br />containment of the hazardous waste. A hazardous materials contractor will handle the <br />cleanup, manifesting, and transportation to an approved facility. All hazardous waste <br />disposal incidents are documented and are reported to the DTSC, RWQCB, LEA, and the <br />State Office of Emergency Services. Documentation is maintained on-site. If necessary, <br />photographs are taken. A Contingency Plan was prepared to further address handling, <br />storage, and removal procedures for hazardous/prohibited waste inadvertently accepted at <br />the facility. The Contingency Plan is available upon request. <br />The volume of traffic at the RRF, including the Compost Facility, cannot exceed 620 vehicles <br />per day, which includes all traffic associated with the landfill operation.
