located adjacent to the sorting area for the temporary storage of foreign materials. The tub <br /> grinder is located in the northwest corner of the site. <br /> Ground green materials will be discharged by conveyor to a stockpile area east of the grinder. <br /> Transfer trailers will be loaded with shredded green materials south of the stockpile area. Vehicle <br /> storage and parking will be provided along the eastern edge of the site. In addition, a small office <br /> ...will be located south of the parking area. <br /> Section 2.1 Process Description <br /> The Contractor will execute a five stage processing configuration for green materials received at <br /> French Camp Landfill. a schematic diagram of the processing system can be seen in Figure 2. A <br /> description of the processing system is as follows: <br /> Receiving-all incoming green materials will be dumped in a designated receiving area. The <br /> receiving area will be large enough to stockpile up to 600 tons of green materials. Multiple <br /> unloading zones will be provided and delineated using a combination of traffic cones, colored <br /> rope, and clearly marked signs. All materials received in this area will be processed within <br /> seventy-two (72)hours of receipt. <br /> Sorting-green materials deposited at the receiving area will be moved to an adjacent sorting <br /> area using a rubber tired loader. A separate sorting area was chosen to prevent the possibility of <br /> sorter injury in the receiving area In the sorting area,the green materials will be spread out to <br /> facilitate sorting. A minimum of two hand sorters will be on site during working hours. Hand <br /> sorters will be provided with and required to use safety equipment, such as: gloves,protective <br /> glasses, and boots. The hand sorters will provide load checking of all materials being prepared <br /> for grinding. Foreign materials removed from the green materials will be stored in a 20 cubic <br /> yard roll-off container located adjacent to the sorting area. It is expected that the principal <br /> contaminant in the green materials will be plastic bags. An area will be set aside for storage of <br /> hazardous or unauthorized waste that is removed from the green materials. <br /> The grinding operation will not change the characteristics of the waste currently received at <br /> French Camp Landfill. Since there will be more load checking of received materials, this <br /> program will provide better control of materials received by City of Stockton trucks and licensed <br /> landscape contractors,than is currently in place. <br /> Grinding- Clean green materials will be loaded into a tub grinder,and ground green materials <br /> will be discharged to a stockpile area or directly loaded into transfer trailers. The end product <br /> will meet the 3.5 inch size requirement for alternative daily cover. <br /> Storage- Once the ground green materials are discharged from the grinder to a stockpile area, a <br /> front end loader will then top load the transfer trailers. All ground green materials will be loaded <br /> and removed off site within seventy-two (72)hours. The stockpile area is large enough to store <br /> up to three days of ground green materials. <br /> Dust Control- Water trucks used for fire control will be used for dust control. <br /> 8 <br />
