2-5 wastes proposed for aceeptanee at the FOPh'ard Landfi ll are routed directly to the landfi ll. No designated wastes are accepted at the RRF. The designated wastes proposed fo r acceptance at the Forward Landfi ll are routed directly to the landfill. No wastes requiring special handling are accepted at the RRF. The wastes requiring special handling proposed fo r acceptance at the Forward landfill are routed directly to the landfill. The materials recovered at the RRF include green and wood , cardboard, meta ls, Cal iforn ia redemption glass, and #1 and #2 plastic. The wood waste is from commercial and private generators for the compost operation and inc ludes tree t ri mmings , pal lets, construction remnants, demolit ion lumbe r, saw dust, and pits. In accordance with 14 CCR, Section 17407 .5(a) and (c), the operator does not intentionally accept or store hazardous wastes, including batteries, paint or any liquid wastes (Le., sewage sludge, industrial waste, water treatment sludge, grit screenings or other high l iquid content wastes), designated waste or wastes requiring special handling. In addition . the RRF cannot accept medical wastes and dead animals. 2.5.2 Waste Quantities The p roposed storage capacity for the RRF is a maximum of 500 TPD~ munio i pa l so l id waste and/of heavier mixed recyclables. Based on the calculations, the storage capacity of the RRF building is between 200 and 500 tons based on the types and mix of materials rec yclables received. The flow through capacity of the existing RRF building is 750+ TPD. This design The operation allows the operator to have adequate storage capacity for residual wastes awaiting removal to the Forward Landfill within 48 hours as allowed under 14 CCR, Section 17410.1 through the use of the five bins . Currently, there are no daily (unusual) peak loadings. The site is to rece ive up to 160 trucl{s per day. The RRF and landfill (combined ) are able to receive a 620-trip maximum threshold allowed for the entire Forward facility as discussed in Section 3.2.9. Loading up to the maximum traffic inflow can be accommodated by the use of back-up equipment and additional trips to the Forward Landfill can be accomplished to handle residual waste. If the capacity is ever reached, additional personnel will be added . as needed . When the RRF is at capacity, all excess loads are turned away. 2.6 Equipment (14 CCR. Sections 17416.3 and 18221.6 (I)) A variety of equipment is used in the operation of the station. The equipment on-site is adequately serves to meet operational and maintenance needs in order to comply accordance with 14 CCR, Section 17416.3. The equipment available at the RRF is listed in Table 1. The equipment varies dependent upon the type of operations being performed at the Forward Resource Recovery Facility SWT Engineering Transfer/Processing Report -May 2014 z:\prolects\all ied wast e\focwardVesou [ce recovery facility\5 yr perm it rvw 2013-14 \)pr 2014\text\rev track\sec2-rey lL.QQcl:\pFojests~lIie d waste \forward \Fes eI:lFSe resevefY fae i l i ty~ yr fj8FfA it MI ,!I)1<3 1 4\tfj F 2G14 \tellt\See2 .de6
