These procedures are in accordance and <br /> compliance with the Solid Waste Facility Permits for each of the sites as referenced above and do not <br /> necessitate a change to said permits. <br /> 1. Green waste loads from the City of Stockton will be directed to the Forward Resource <br /> Recovery Facility (RRF) and unloaded on the concrete pad. <br /> 2. At a minimum, at least two personnel—one equipment operator and one laborer will operate <br /> the RRF. Forward Landfill supervisory staff(Landfill Operations Manager and/or Foreman) <br /> will provide oversight of the RRF operation. <br /> 3. The green waste material will be spread out on the one-acre concrete pad using a front loader in <br /> order to inspect and sort the material. Typically, the green waste will be spread at a depth of <br /> six to eighteen inches, dependent on the degree of contamination. <br /> 4. All loads will be inspected for unacceptable contaminants. The RRF staff will remove any <br /> unacceptable contaminants as described in Title 14 17852 (a)(21) and 17868.5, and Title 27 <br /> 20690 (b)(3) to include specifically any items meeting the definition of"food waste"as <br /> described in Title 14 17852 (a)(20). <br /> 5. All contaminants removed shall be deposited in refuse bins and transported directly to the <br /> Forward Landfill for disposal. <br /> 6.
