avoided. In comparison to open-field burning, burning this material in a power plant with pollution control systems results in lower emissions. The second objective of the applicant is to implement waste oil recovery and recycling as a means of providing a fuel source for the biomass drying and briquetting operation. Surplus recycled oil would be available for sale. It is proposed to recycle used lubricants such as engine and general purpose lubricating oils, transmission and hydraulic fluids, and machine lube-oils. The project applicant has estimated that the amount of waste lubricant oils available would ultimately be approxi- mately 3.6 million gallons per year in San Joaquin County. However, this compares with an estimated 1 .3 million gallons per year of waste oil generated in 1986 by households and businesses within San Joaquin County as identified in the County's Draft Hazardous Waste Management Plan. Waste oil generation is estimated to increase to 1.67 million gallons by the Year 2000 (Emcon Associates 1988) .
