S. The JTD, Page 6-13, Section 6.4.7, states that "beneficial reuse records shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements of 27 CCR, Section 20686. "Provide an estimate of the range, in tons, of these materials that are anticipated to be used, based on waste types, applicable cover to waste volume ratios, applicable density conversion factors, and engineering specifications in accordance with 27 CCR Section 21600 (6) (b). The response provided did not fully address the question. Footnote below table on page 4-8 tries to lump beneficial inert materials with others and does not state which material it is a subset of. Please provide detailed site information that follows T 27 CCR Section 20686. 6. The JTD, Appendix C-1, Page 1 of S, uses an industry standard of 4:1 refuse to daily and intermediate soil cover ratio. The EHD has asked that the ratios for the beneficial reuse material and ADC follow current site information, or provide an explanation of how the ratio was arrived at. Please revise to provide. The response provided did not fully address the question. Please explain why site specific information was not used and provide a citation for where the industry standard can be found. On numerous occasions(almost monthly)the EHD has been able to document the use of tarps in combination with other sources of ADC. Does the 4:1 ratio take in account the use of tarps, please explain. 7. The JTD, Appendix C-1, Page 2 of S, combines operation layer, daily cover and intermediate cover to determine a daily peak for soil cover brought into the facility. Please provide records that support the calculations. Please indicate which soil jobs were used as operations layer. The response provided did not fully address the question. Please provide information on which soils jobs were used as operations layers during construction. The information that the EHD has regarding the use of soils jobs as operations layers is that it does not occur. The soil used for operations layer in the past has been virgin soil excavated from the site borrow pit. 8. The JTD,Appendix C-1, Page 3 of S, indicates that 550 tons per day is needed to build a tipping pad. Is this a winter pad?Does Forward Landfill build a tipping pad every other day? Does this include daily cover from the day prior? The response does not fully address the question. Please provide detailed site information regarding the number of tipping pads constructed at Forward Landfill annually. Does the calculation include daily cover from the previous day?Does this include winter pad construction. 9. The JTD,Appendix C-1, Page 4 of 5, indicates how the volume of C&D ADC is derived, but it does not provide a tonnage estimate (see comments 10 and 14). Provide a tonnage estimate for C&D ADC. The response did not include an answer to the above referenced question.Please provide. IOThe JTD,Appendix C-1, indicates that treated auto shredder waste when deployed has a specific density greater than concrete or soil. This does not seem realistic. Provide supporting documentation from the generator of the treated auto shredder waste that shows the density of the material as it leaves their facility. The response involves field test that was conduct without the EHD oversight or over input.The EHD will not accept field test data that has not been witness by the EHD. The field tests that were conducted listed only the basic criteria for testing. The EHD is concerned that the testing information may have been affected by abnormal high moisture levels or contamination that would make the ADC cover material have a higher than normal density. The EHD is requesting that the field tests be conducted as part of a plan and that the EHD staff witness the tests. Page 2 of 3
