<br /> similar activities undertaken for the production of food or fiber for human or animal
<br /> consumption or use, which is separated at the point of generation, and which contains
<br /> no other solid waste. With the exception of grape pomace or material generated during
<br /> nut or grain hulling, shelling, and processing, agricultural material has not been
<br /> processed except at its point of generation and has not been processed in a way that
<br /> alters its essential character as a waste resulting from the production of food or fiber for
<br /> human or animal consumption or use. Material that is defined in this section 17852 as
<br /> "food material" or "vegetative food material" is not agricultural material. Agricultural
<br /> material includes, but is not limited to, manures, orchard and vineyard prunings, grape
<br /> pomace, and crop residues.
<br /> "compostable material" [14CCR §17852 (a)(11)]—means any organic material that
<br /> when accumulated will become active compost as defined in Section 17852(a) (1). For
<br /> this facility, biosolids, sewage sludge, domestic sewage, and mammalian flesh will not
<br /> be utilized as feedstock.
<br /> "additives" [14CCR §17852 (a)(2)]—means material mixed with feedstock or active
<br /> compost in order to adjust the moisture level, carbon to nitrogen ratio, or porosity to
<br /> create a favorable condition. Additives include, but are not limited to, fertilizers and
<br /> urea. Additives do not include septage, biosolids, or compost feedstock.
<br /> "amendments" [14CCR §17852 (a)(7)]—means materials added to stabilized or cured
<br /> compost to provide attributes for certain compost products, such as product bulk,
<br /> product nutrient value, product pH, and soils blend. Amendments do not include
<br /> septage, biosolids, or compost feedstock.
<br /> "inert debris" [14CCR §17381(k)]—means solid waste and recyclable materials that are
<br /> source separated or separated for reuse, do not contain hazardous waste (as defined in
<br /> CCR, Title 22, section 66261.3 et seq.) or soluble pollutants at concentrations in excess
<br /> of applicable water quality objectives and do not contain significant quantities of
<br /> decomposable waste. Inert debris may not contain more than 1% putrescible wastes by
<br /> volume calculated on a monthly basis and the putrescible wastes shall not constitute a
<br /> nuisance, as determined by the EA. Gravel, rock, soil, sand and similar materials,
<br /> whether processed or not, that have never been used in connection with any structure,
<br /> development, or other human purpose are not inert debris and may commingled with
<br /> inert debris.
<br /> (1) "Type A Inert debris" includes but is not limited to concrete (including
<br /> fiberglass or steel reinforcing bar embedded in the concrete), fully cured asphalt,
<br /> glass, fiberglass, asphalt or fiberglass roofing shingles, brick, slag, ceramics,
<br /> plaster, clay and clay products. Type A inert debris is waste that does not contain
<br /> soluble pollutants at concentrations in excess of water quality objectives and has
<br /> not been treated in order to reduce pollutants. The board, upon consultation with
<br /> the State Water Resources Control Board, will determine on a case by case
<br /> basis whether materials not listed in this subdivision qualify as Type A inert
<br /> debris.
