5.0 OPERATING PROVISIONS <br /> 5. 1 CONTROL OF INCOMING WASTES <br /> ' In response to the hazards posed by indiscriminate disposal of prohib- <br /> ited wastes at solid waste landfills, the California Regional Water <br /> ' Quality Control Board (RWQCB) has included in Subchapter 15 the <br /> requirement for a load-checking program. The intent of such a program <br /> ' is to discourage the improper disposal of prohibited wastes. <br /> The waste acceptance program at the replacement site for the Harney <br /> ' Lane Sanitary Landfill will be designed to prevent, to the extent <br /> possible, the acceptance of prohibited wastes into the landfill 's <br /> twaste stream. Specific elements of the program will include <br /> • Notifying customers, by various methods, of applicable <br /> ' policies and procedures <br /> • Providing a load-checking program for incoming wastes <br /> • Specifying methods for determining the acceptability of <br /> wastes <br /> ' • Describing other measures to deter the disposal of pro- <br /> hibited wastes <br /> ' 5.2 LANDFILLING PROCEDURES <br /> The landfill will be constructed by the ramp-area method. Refuse fill <br /> will be placed in lifts averaging 10 feet thick, with perimeter slopes <br /> of 3: 1 (horizontal to vertical ) or flatter. Refuse will be spread and <br /> compacted in layers approximately 2 feet thick on a sloped working <br /> ' face. Except for the initial lift in each landfill module, wastes <br /> will be deposited at the base of the working face, spread up the face, <br /> and compacted. The compaction equipment will traverse the entire <br /> ' length of the working face and make several passes over each refuse <br /> layer so that all waste is adequately compacted. Large or bulky <br /> ' wastes will be separated to prevent bridging of the surrounding <br /> PJ9 9390209A.00D 23 <br /> ' ER1C0f1 Associates <br />
