ATTACHMENT A <br /> PROJECT DESCRIPTION (ER-93-1) <br /> The applicant, Tracy Material Recovery and Solid Waste Transfer, Inc., has submitted a Use Permit <br /> application for the Tracy Materials Recovery and Transfer Facility to be located on 38.8 acres south of the <br /> City of Tracy. The site is located on the west side of MacArthur Drive, south of Linne Road. <br /> The general objectives of this facility are to accept nonhazardous solid waste from the City of Tracy and <br /> portions of San Joaquin County, extract recyclable materials from the waste stream, and transfer the <br /> residual waste to remote landfills. <br /> The transfer facility will be planned and developed with various functional areas. The facility will consist <br /> of the following activities and/or functional areas: <br /> 1. Sorting of nonhazardous solid waste and/or collected recyclables. <br /> 2. Transfer station for the transport of the residual waste to landfills. <br /> 3. Processing of the recyclables from sorting and curbside collection programs. <br /> 4. Yard waste processing and composting. <br /> 5. Wood waste storage and processing for off-site disposal. <br /> 6. Administrative and maintenance area for both the transfer facility operations and refuse collection <br /> operations. <br /> 7. Periodic household hazardous waste collection, separation, and temporary storage for off-site <br /> disposal. <br /> The facility will be open daily from 4:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with approximately 20 employees. The <br /> applicants estimate that the facility will accommodate approximately 500 to 600 tons per day of total <br /> refuse. The amount actually processed through the facility may be significantly less, however, depending <br /> on the amount of separated yard and wood waste brought to the facility. <br />
