Landfill Expansion Project a Table IV.E-1: Summary Of Key Landfill Operation Assumptions Affecting Diesel Particulate Emissions' Key Landfill Operations Baseline Proposed Project Assumptions • Diesel Particulate Source Working Area, Borrow Soil New Expansion Area Areas' Stockpile, Class II Soil Excavation, Working Area, Stockpile Borrow Soil Stockpile, Class II Soil Stockpile VOC Criteria Pollution 47.96 tons per year 80.97 Tons per year Emissions { ermitted) Working Area 1,585,310 m 2,234,790 rn Daily Tonnage 8,668 tons/day 14,655 tons per day, plus 40,000 gallons per day of high moisture content waste l.t Permitted vehicles per day 620 960 Number of Vehicles, Forward— 17 pieces of diesel- Unchanged ' Operating Hours, days per powered landfill operating week operation,vehicle equipment, 10.5 hrs, 7 days, 5 replacement.frequency to 10 years 1 Notes: While landfill equipment is used in the working area,Class II soil stockpile,and borrow soil stockpile,the majority of vehicle operating time is in the working area. Only the area of the working area is therefore listed in this table. • Existing fire protection facilities would be maintained to the satisfaction of the Lathrop— Manteca Fire Protection District. • Dust exposure of site workers would be monitored periodically, at the discretion of the landfill manager,to evaluate if any additional respiratory protection or dust suppression i (watering) mitigation is needed. • Additional engineering controls woulkd be implemented by the site operator, if needed based on the evaluation of the site health and safety or operations manager,to control dust emissions. Such controls might include wind screens near unloading areas or the use of dust suppressants. • If the above controls cannot reduce employee dust exposure below acceptable levels as i determined by Forward Landfill (considering factors including irritation and annoyance a to employees), site personnel at risk would be supplied with gloves, coveralls, eye protections and respirators, with associated training in their use. • Wastes must not leave the landfill on workers' clothing. Workers who have had direct contact with waste, or who have performed operations that may involve direct contact with wastes(such as equipment maintenance or asbestos handling), would wear ' disposable clothing or change clothing before leaving the site. The potentially contaminated clothing will be cleaned or disposed as appropriate. Ly .
