Draft Environmental Impact Report Page III-24 Forward Inc. Landfill Expansion R flow within its banks),and(3)provide a stable channel design that meets or exceeds the functions and values of the existing creek. The existing creek traversing the landfill is generally a trapezoidal channel with little riparian habitat that is regularly cleared of emergent vegetation by County personnel. The existing creek performs relatively well in terms of flood control. (Bryan A.Stirrat&Associates,2008). The proposed relocated channel would exceed the flood control ability of the existing channel and create approximately nine net acres of riparian woodland habitat. Increase the Permitted Number of Daily Vehicles The current permitted traffic volume at the landfill is 620 vehicles per day. The proposed level of permitted vehicles is 960 vehicles per day. Because delivery of waste and other material varies on a daily basis,the landfill would maintain records of incoming loads and vehicle counts and limit z deliveries to 960 vehicles per day. Solidification of High Moisture Content Wastes Non-hazardous liquid waste and sludge would be solidified in a mixing basin located in the southeast portion of the landfill,and then disposed in the refuse fill area. Liquid waste means any non-hazardous waste material that is determined to contain"free liquids" as defined by United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)SW-846 Method 9095 A. Non-hazardous wastes which may require solidification include,but are not limited to, sewage sludge, off-specification food and'other consumer products,and by-products from various food processing and other industrial operations. Up to 40,000 gallons per day of liquid waste would be accepted. The liquid waste would be accepted and solidified,throughout the year.

Each potential liquid waste proposed for solidification and disposal at the Forward Landfill would be characterized by the generator,based on generator knowledge and laboratory testing. Forward would review the waste characterization submittal for completeness, and determine whether the waste is to be accepted. If acceptance is granted for receipt of liquid 4-2 waste,a Generator Waste Profile Sheet would include specific information regarding the waste. The generator would be required to certify by signature that all information on the form is true and correct. A non-hazardous waste manifest would accompany each shipment of liquid wastes to the Forward Landfill. A copy would be sent to the generator to verify receipt, and a copy would be on file at the Forward Landfill. All waste discrepancies(shipment without a waste manifest,waste does not match the waste manifest,or waste manifest information is incomplete or incorrect) would be resolved before the waste is accepted for solidification and disposal. Unresolved discrepancies would cause rejection of the load with instructions to the transporter to return the load to the generator. Prior to processing,the manifest for each load would be checked by the staff at the solidification area. If containerized unacceptable or hazardous wastes are discovered in the load, the driver would•..be-instructe-dto remove the materials from"the site and arrange for disposal at an a
