Non-Water Release Corrective Action Plan <br />North County Recycling Center and Sanitary Landfill <br />AU24.1294.00 | Non-Water Release Corrective Action Plan Update 1 <br />October 2024 <br />1.0 INTRODUCTION <br />This report presents an update to the site-specific Non-Water Release Corrective Action Plan <br />(NWRCAP) prepared by Geo-Logic Associates in July 2014 for the North County Recycling Center <br />and Sanitary Landfill (NCRCSL). This updated NWRCAP addresses the potential damage that can <br />be caused by a reasonably foreseeable causal event that exceeds the landfill’s existing design <br />standard in accordance with California Code of Regulations Title 27 (27 CCR), Section 22101. As <br />part of this update, the data used in the previous report’s analyses was examined to ensure <br />that values and information obtained from outside sources has not changed. Any changes in the <br />data were used to modify the NWRCAP as needed. Modifications are noted within each section <br />of this report. <br />Potential reasonably foreseeable causal events to be considered, as identified by the California <br />Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) Proposed Best Management <br />Practices (BMPs) (see Section 8.0 for reference) for Preparing Site-Specific Non-Water Quality <br />Corrective Action Plans, include: earthquakes, precipitation, flooding, fire, seiche, and tsunami. <br />1.1 Background <br />The NCRCSL is an active, lined, Class III landfill located at 17720 Harney Lane, Lodi, San Joaquin <br />County (County), California (Figure 1). The NCRCSL is owned and operated by the County <br />Department of Public Works and has been since opening in 1991. <br />The facility area covers approximately 320 acres, of which 185 acres are permitted for waste <br />disposal. The remaining area is comprised of open space, including some wetlands (Figure 2). <br />Access roads, stormwater sedimentation basin, setbacks, office and maintenance buildings, <br />gate house, recycling center, and scales are located in areas that will one day receive refuse. <br />The land use surrounding the landfill property is for agriculture (farming and livestock grazing). <br />The landfill is operated in accordance with Solid Waste Facility Permit (SWFP) 39-AA-0022 <br />issued by County of San Joaquin Environmental Health Department and with Waste Discharge <br />Requirements (WDRs) order number R5-2010-0016 issued by Regional Water Quality Control <br />Board (RWQCB). The NCRCSL receives solid waste and recyclable materials in the form of <br />residential waste, green waste, wood waste, metals, paper products, glass, tires, plastic, <br />agricultural waste, inert waste, treated wood waste, construction and demolition debris, and <br />commercial/industrial waste from both the public and contract carriers. A Load Checking <br />Program is in place to inspect incoming refuse to exclude household hazardous waste. Large <br />dead animals may be received on a case-by case exemption in the instance of a health <br />emergency such as the death of a significant number of cattle or other livestock. <br />2.0 GEOLOGIC AND HYDROGEOLOGIC OVERVIEW <br />2.1 Site Geology and Hydrogeology <br />The geology and hydrogeology of the NCRCSL has been summarized from the report prepared
