IL Project Description <br /> would align his blade parallel to and adjacent to the position that would be occupied p by the <br /> unloading truck. Trucks arriving while the first truck would be unloading would take up <br /> succeeding positions along the working face. <br /> In order to reduce litter,odor,vectors,etc.,the working face would be made as small as <br /> practical. If the number of trucks on the site would exceed the number that can be <br /> accommodated at the working face,a queue would be formed on the on-site access road(or <br /> operations pad). A flagman would be stationed on the road to control traffic. <br /> Trucks leaving the working face would have the right-of-way. The lead equipment operator <br /> would keep the site supervisor informed of the progress and position of the working face on a <br /> day-to-day basis. Flagmen and any person outside a vehicle in the vicinity of the working face <br /> would wear an orange vest and a hard hat. <br /> Using compaction equipment,wastes would be compacted at the working face to an initial <br /> compaction of at least 1,200 pounds per cubic foot. The slope of the working face would be kept <br /> at 4:1 (horizontal:vertical)or flatter to ensure adequate compaction. To optimize compaction, <br /> wastes would be spread onto the working face in layers with thicknesses of two feet or less. To <br /> ensure that adequate compaction would be achieved,the compaction equipment would traverse <br /> the entire length of the working face and make a minimum of four passes over each two-foot <br /> thick layer of refuse. <br /> The completeness of compaction would be judged in the field by noting when the "spring-back" <br /> of the refuse has been reduced to a minimum,or when compactor cleats do not sink into the <br /> refuse,but instead are visible"walking"on the surface. <br /> As required by State regulations,cover soil would be spread and compacted at a minimum <br /> compacted thickness of six inches over all solid waste at the end of each working day. Cover <br /> depth would exceed six inches if necessary to completely cover the waste material. The daily <br /> cover would: <br /> • prevent vectors from feeding and breeding in and around the refuse disposal area; <br /> • minimize the potential for fires in the refuse; <br /> • control blowing litter from the working face; <br /> • control odors from the working face;and <br /> • complement the stormwater separation and diversion system. <br /> 11.26 <br />
