<br /> Table 1. Total daily tonnage in excess of the permitted maximum daily tonnage of 8,668 tons per day.
<br /> 2. Section 44014(b)-Terms and Conditions of the Permit. The solid waste facilities permit shall contain all terms and
<br /> conditions that the local enforcement agency determines to be appropriate for the operation of the solid waste facility.
<br /> The operator shall comply with all terms and conditions of the permit.
<br /> The 2003 Solid Waste Facilities Permit allows for a maximum weekly tonnage of 46,080 tons,not exceeding 8,668 tons
<br /> per day. The acceptance of waste is in excess of the maximum permitted daily tonnage is a violation of this section.
<br /> B. The inspection identified two violations of Title 27,Division 2,Subdivision 1,California Code of Regulations,
<br /> Consolidated Regulations for Treatment,Storage,Processing,or Disposal of Solid Waste.
<br /> 1. Section 21600—Report of Disposal Site Information. This standard requires,in part,that in order to maintain the
<br /> permit,the operator must file amendments to the Report of Disposal Site Information as required in Section 21665.' Such
<br /> amendments or lack thereof may become the basis for changes in the permit or for revocation of the permit.The
<br /> submittal shall contain only those items listed in Section 21570(f)that have changed or otherwise specified by the
<br /> enforcement agency.
<br /> On July 23,2004,the Alternative Daily Cover regulations took effect. These regulations require,per Title 27,California
<br /> Code of Regulations,Section 21600(b)(6)(B),each operator to estimate the range in tons of alternative daily cover
<br /> materials that are anticipated to be used,based on waste types,applicable cover to waste volume ratios,applicable
<br /> density conversion factors and engineering specifications.
<br /> Forward Landfill has yet to submit a Solid Waste Facilities Permit application for a Report of Disposal Site Information
<br /> amendment estimating the range in tons of alternative daily cover materials that are anticipated to be used,based on
<br /> waste types,applicable cover to waste volume ratios,applicable density conversion factors and engineering
<br /> specifications.
<br /> During the exit interview following the inspection,the landfill operations manager,James Moore stated that,in his
<br /> opinion,the Report of Disposal Site Information was out of date and the soil to cover ratio mentioned on page 4-10 was
<br /> not representative of current operations.
<br /> The failure to submit amendments to Forward Landfill's Report of Disposal Site Information is a violation of this
<br /> section.
