Photographs of <br />these signs are included in the Appendix. <br />The majority of the commercial and industrial waste loads <br />(not including nonrecyclable wastes such as asbestos, ash, and <br />contaminated soil) are brought to the Forward Landfill Transfer <br />Station before the waste is disposed in the landfill. The loads <br />are spread out in the waste sorting building, and the entire <br />waste load is checked for recoverable materials and unacceptable <br />waste. <br />A load checking data sheet is filled out that describes the <br />contents of each load. Sample load checking data sheets are <br />included in the appendix. The sheet will include, the date, <br />hauler, transporter, source of the waste, and the Forward load <br />inspector's signature, and observation notes. The completed load <br />checking data sheets will be kept at the landfill. <br />Containerized Waste <br />If containerized hazardous materials or otherwise <br />unacceptable wastes are discovered in the load, the customer is <br />told that he must remove the materials from the recycling <br />division and arrange for the waste to be disposed at an <br />appropriate site. A load checking occurrence sheet will be filled <br />out to record the incident (see appendix). <br />If the vehicle has already left the site when the <br />unacceptable materials are found, they are moved to the hazardous <br />waste storage building for temporary storage and disposal within <br />90 -days. A description of the storage building is included in <br />this plan. The container is labeled with the customer's name and <br />the date and time of delivery. The customer is informed that he <br />must remove the materials and dispose of the waste at a site <br />licensed to accept the materials. The incident is recorded in a <br />load checking occurrence sheet. If the customer refuses to <br />handle the removal of the unacceptable waste, the Forward <br />Landfill will arrange for the proper disposal of the waste at <br />Forward's expense. <br />Revised 3/11/94 <br />
