11 Mr. Robert McClellon September 22, 2004 Page 5 of 11 characterization conducted by CIWMB. The debris will be separated from native soil manually by site workers or using a mechanical sifter, if necessary. The separated soil and debris will be stockpiled separately, pending ultimate destination. The separated debris will be loaded into trucks immediately after separation or temporarily stockpiled on site if less than a full load. Any stockpiled debris will be secured by temporary fencing or flagging. The debris will be transported to the Gilton Resource Recovery Transfer Station located at 800 S. McClure Road in Modesto, California for disposal. The volume of waste removed from the site will be tracked by cataloging the weigh tickets of each truck that exits the facility. To date, approximately 47 tons of visible surface debris has been removed from the site by Mr. Palomino pursuant to a court order. Most of the debris was transported to the Gilton transfer station, but some debris was also transported to the Lovelace Materials Recovery Facility Transfer Station at 2323 Lovelace Road, Manteca, California. Copies of the weigh tickets will be included in the final site report. Native soil separated from the excavated debris will be used on site in construction of the landfill cap and/or the drainage plan. Parcel 14 Debris previously identified in excavaton trenches T27, T29, and T30 will be removed to a permitted landfill. These areas are identified in the figure prepared by Ninyo & Moore for the CIWMB (Appendix Q. The estimated soil and debris volumes are summarized in Table 3. As indicated in Table 3, it is estimated that up to 6,830 cubic yards of material, including up to approximately 1,300 cubic yards of debris will be excavated from these areas. The excavated material will be handled as described above. A significant volume of mixed soil and debris is located in the westernmost third of Parcel 14 along the western property boundary (the railroad berm). As indicated in Table 3, an estimated 32,300 cubic yards of waste, up to approximately 15,600 cubic yards of which could be debris, is located in the areas surrounding previous trench locations T31, T35, T36, T37, T40, T55, T56, and T59. As discussed with EHD, Mr. Palomino does not currently have the funds to mitigate the buried waste in this portion of the site. Mr. Palomino proposes to mitigate this portion of the site as funds become available. 3.3 Consolidate and Cap Debris in Northern Corner of Site The northern portion of the site, covering an area of approximately 2 acres of land, was previously identified as containing the greatest thickness of buried debris, specifically the debris identified in excavation trenches T1 through T13, and T64 (see Appendix A and Figure 4). Mr. Palomino will supervise the consolidation and capping of debris in this area of the site. This work will be conducted concurrently with the general grading of the facility that is necessary to comply with site drainage and erosion control requirements.
