Green Waste Procedures for the Green Waste loads diverted from the City of <br /> Stockton's Green Waste collection program <br /> • Loads will be directly diverted to Forward's compost/transfer yard <br /> • During the inspection and sorting process loads will be spread using a front loader <br /> across a 1 acre concrete pad,this area is large enough to accommodate all the <br /> green waste collected from the City of Stockton. Typically during inspection and <br /> sorting this material will be spread from 6 to 18 inches in depth(dependent on <br /> level of contamination) <br /> • All loads will be inspected for unacceptable containments and Forward's <br /> personnel will remove any unacceptable containments. Unacceptable <br /> containments includes material that does not meet the definitions as found in Title <br /> 14 CCR and Title 27 CCR, specifically any food waste items, i.e. Meat and dairy <br /> products. <br /> • All removed items will be deposited in refuse bins and transported to Forward <br /> landfill for disposal. <br /> • After, but not until,the next route load of green waste is delivered to the tipping <br /> area,the spread green waste material which has been inspected and has had the <br /> containments removed will be piled for loading. This material will be transported <br /> to the grinding yard located at the landfill for further processing. <br /> • Currently Forward has two employees at the transfer yard to inspect, spread and <br /> sort the green waste material. Forward's management staff will provide the <br /> manage oversight for this program. <br />
