waste materials used as ADC shall be restricted to the following materials: rock, concrete, brick, sand, soil, ceramics, cured asphalt, lumber and wood, wood products, roofing material, plastic pipe, plant material when commingled from construction work, and fines derived from processing the above materials. These materials shall comply with a grain size specification by volume of 95 percent less than 12 inches and 50 percent less than 6 inches as determined by the LEA. The C&D wastes are evenly spread over the active face in a minimum 6-inch lift and average compacted lift thickness of less than 18-inches using a dozer. The lift is compacted such that it is free of voids. If voids are present, an approximately 2-inch layer of soil is spread over the C&D waste to eliminate voids. (NOTE: Certain types of C&D, primarily asphaltic concrete and Portland cement concrete, are diverted from disposal for other beneficial uses, such as roads and tipping decks.) Contaminated Soil: Contaminated soil, suitable for use as ADC, (CS) is stockpiled close to the active face to facilitate application as daily cover. A large sign designates the area to unload the CS. Forward Landfill uses CS as ADC (and as alternative intermediate cover) in the same manner as regular soil. The CS is spread over the active face using a dozer or loader in alternating layeFs to provide a minimum thickness of 6 inches of daily cover over refuse fill (12 inches of intermediate cover). It should be noted that volatile organic compound (VOC) contaminated soil available for daily cover use is stockpiled separately. ICS is also utilized for, but not limited too, intermediate preparation of wet weather deck or the improvement of the internal haul road and construction of earthen drainage control features. Furthermore, CS will also be utilized for beneficial reuse as allowed under 27 CCR, Section 20686. The amount of ADC used at the site is variable. The active face, over which ADC is placed, is kept as small as possible to reduce litter and vectors but large enough to allow safe and efficient traffic management. Daily ADC use eeuld The quantities of ADC used at the site will be recorded and maintained in the operations record for the site. The forms used to record ADC use are included in Appendix M. If the site uses multiple types of ADC, the usage will be recorded by amount and type. Forward will continue to investigate other sources for daily cover materials, Forward Landfill JTD 6-12 J:\Allied\ForwardVTD Amendment\January2006 JTD Amendment\JTD Sec 6 012506 Track Changes.doc: 5/22/02;Rev.1:7/2002:Rev.2:4/2003;Rev 3:6/2003;Amendment No.1:1/26/2006
