Pacific Energy, a subcontractor to the City, is responsible for <br />FDSR Sec. 3.5, <br />collection of landfill gas at the existing landfill. They collect <br />Pages 3-5 to 3-6 <br />and burn the gas to produce up to 760 kilowatts per hour of <br />Appendix B, <br />electrical power that is sold to PG & E. This type of contract <br />CEP Dwg. P1 <br />will continue to be used at the expanded landfill. In addition, <br />gas extraction wells with overlapping radii of influence will be <br />used in conjunction with collection laterals and transmission <br />mains to convey the gas to a blower/flare facility. An <br />amendment will be filed at the time of final design of each <br />phase; this amendment will describe specific details of the gas <br />control and monitoring system. <br />VI.B.1. Monitoring System <br />14 CCR 17783.3(a)(1) <br />Nine new gas monitoring probes are proposed for installation <br />Appendix I, FDSR <br />around the landfill, as indicated on Drawing P1. A typical gas <br />Sec. 3.5, Pages 3-5 <br />monitoring probe is found in the FDSR as Figure 3-1. An <br />to 3-6 <br />amendment will be filed at the time of final design of each <br />Appendix B, <br />phase. The existing monitoring system layout and well logs <br />CEP Dwg. P1 <br />are in Appendix P. <br />Appendix P <br />VI.B.2. Gas Control or Recovery <br />14 CCR 17783.3(a)(2)(C) <br />The gas recovery system is expected to be an active gas <br />Appendix F, Gas <br />System <br />14 CCR 17783.3(a)(2)(D) <br />extraction system using vertical wells and/or horizontal <br />Generation Analysis <br />14 CCR 17783.3(a)(2)(E) <br />extraction trenches with perforated pipe. Drawings P9 and <br />Appendix I, FDSR <br />P10 show a conceptual gas system design. The system will <br />Sec. 3.5, Pages 3-5 <br />have a main perimeter header located outside of the landfill. <br />to 3-6 <br />Because of the minimal grade around the perimeter of the <br />Appendix B, <br />landfill, a series of sumps may be required to prevent <br />CEP Dwg. P9, <br />condensate buildup in the head pipe. Disposal will be at the <br />CEP Dwg. P10 <br />PG & E power plant or to an on-site flare facility. A RDSI <br />amendment will be filed at the time of final design for major <br />stages of the gas control system. <br />VI.B.3. Monitoring <br />• <br />VI:B.3.a. Method and Frequency <br />14 CCR 17783.7(b) <br />An amendment will be filed at the time of final design of each <br />Appendix I, FDSR <br />14 CCR 17783.7(c) <br />phase; this amendment will describe the method and <br />Sec. 3.6, Pages 3-5 <br />frequency of gas monitoring on-site. Minimum frequency is <br />to 3-6 <br />assumed to be quarterly. Monitoring reports for the existing <br />Appendix Q <br />system are included in Appendix Q. <br />
