Weber Avenue, Third Floor Stock-ton, CA 95202-2708 Subject: Response to Inspection Conducted February 24, 2005, Forward Landfill, Facility Number 39-AA-0015 Dear Ms. Heran: The following actions and or answers are submitted in response to the facility inspection conducted on February 24, 2005 and the associated Disposal Site Inspection Report received on March 15, 2005. The replies are numbered as listed on the report. 1. As previously noted, some areas of concern related to ponding water and erosion cannot be corrected until a period of sustained dry weather occurs which allows for operation of equipment in the affected areas. 2. Due to the extremely high amounts of precipitation this season, there have been some small areas of increased uneven subsidence on the inactive areas of the landfill. The landfill staff has marked these areas and any necessary filling or regrading will be accomplished as soon as weather conditions allow for proper repairs to be completed without any additional negative effects. I The entire active face of the Forward Landfill has been inspected and where necessary. additional cover has been placed to prevent the exposure of any waste. 4. In an attempt to minimize the working face during inclement weather in the days preceding the above inspection, the stockpile for the incoming Treated Auto Shredder Waste (TASW) used for Alternative Daily Cover(ADC) was placed in close proximity to the working face. Due to the extended period of rain and the limited deck area available, the waste face advanced to an area immediately next to the TASW stockpile. In the future, the ADC stockpile will be relocated if the active waste face advances into the same area. 5. As part of the work to correct deficiency No 3 above, any exposed Processed Green Waste (PGW) was covered. The Landfill Operations Foreman and Manager will track any areas of exposed PGW and ensure that a layer of soil is placed prior to 21 days after the initial placement of the PGW.
