II. Project Description • date; • time; • name of the hauling firm or vehicle owner; • name of the driver; • telephone number for contacting the hauler; • license plate number and truck number of the vehicle;and • source(s)of the waste as stated by the vehicle driver. The form would be signed by the vehicle driver,the load-check inspector, and landfill supervisor on duty. The landfill operator would designate the location for emptying the randomly selected waste load. As the vehicle is unloading, the driver would be instructed to pull forward,thus the unloaded waste would be formed into a long windrow. The windrow would then be torn down, using a rake and/or shovel, along both sides of the pile. While tearing down,the material would be carefully observed for any hazardous or other dangerous wastes that may be discovered in the load. The load-checker would sample any freely draining liquids seen during the process of raking through the refuse. Simple field tests would be conducted on the samples,which would include measuring the pH,odor and color of the sample,plus any comments on the source of the liquids. These observations would be recorded on the data sheet for the load. If appropriate,pictures and other samples would be taken. If any hazardous or other unacceptable wastes are identified,the entities responsible for generating and delivering the wastes would be notified that the wastes were illegally disposed of, and would be charged for additional analysis and disposal costs as incurred. If the delivering entity is unknown,the City shall incur the clean-up costs. Delivery and Handling*of Waste Landfilling at the Austin Road Landfill would be by systematically filling and covering daily cells. Operations would be confined to a limited area,referred to as the working face. The filling of cells would be done in order to maximize compaction of refuse already in place. The II.23
