• This situation may arise when a load is checked after a vehicle,whose license plate <br /> number has been logged,has left the site and the load is known to have been dropped by <br /> that vehicle. <br /> If the waste is containerized for transport, it is moved to a hazardous waste storage <br /> locker by landfill employees using a tractor loader. The container is marked with the <br /> date and time of discovery, load checker or person who discovered materials, and license <br /> plate number of the responsible party. The incident is documented in the vehicle log and <br /> site special occurrence log and the customer is contacted by telephone by the site <br /> foreman and informed that the customer is responsible for proper disposal of prohibited <br /> waste. The customer is informed that he must return to the site within 48 hours and <br /> remove such waste from the site. The customer is also referred to the San Joaquin <br /> County Environmental Department for obtaining information on proper disposal of the <br /> materials. <br /> • If the customer does not return to the site and remove the prohibited waste,the customer <br /> is contacted again and told that the County will have a licensed hazardous waste hauler <br /> remove the materials from the site and perform ultimate proper disposal at a licensed <br /> facility. The County will then proceed with proper disposal and the customer is billed <br /> for the associated costs. <br /> If the waste is a spill, or is not containerized such that it may be transported, transfer <br /> station workers will mark off the area with traffic cones and divert unloading operations <br /> to a safe area. The customer is contacted by the site foreman and informed of the <br /> situation. Since the waste may not be transported, except by a licensed hazardous waste <br /> hauler,the customer is informed accordingly and that the customer will be billed for the <br /> removal and disposal costs. The incident is recorded in the load checker's log and the <br /> site incident log, and the site foreman then follows the procedures listed in Section IV, <br /> "Procedures for Handling Identified Hazardous Waste", for performance of ultimate <br /> disposal. <br /> 6 <br />
