shredding process. Most liquids are volatilized during the <br />shredding operation and a silicate/cement treatment is applied to <br />the ASW to control metals leaching. <br />Daily and intermediate cover will be used only during winter <br />months to decrease the amount of rainwater infiltration. Daily <br />cover is not proposed during the summer because ASW and inert <br />waste are not putresible. Additionally, it is not anticipated <br />that dust generation will normally be a problem. If litter or <br />dust becomes. a problem during windy periods, daily cover will be <br />applied. <br />Although daily cover is not proposed for dry weather months, it <br />will be applied during wet weather periods to provide a surface <br />to direct storm water which falls on waste in the pit to the <br />storm water removal sump in the west side of the pit (see comment <br />J-1). The table below shows the waste cell sizes and required <br />cover for these cells. The requirements for cover on a daily <br />basis are shown f.or average, peak and site operational capacity <br />ASW volumes stated in A-3 of the RDSI. <br />WASTE AND COVGR CALCULATIONS <br />FOR COVE <br />CONTRACTORS <br />Cell Dimensions <br />Daily <br />H <br />W <br />L <br />CY Fill <br />Tons Fill' <br />Surface Area' <br />CY Cover' <br />Average Day <br />Peak <br />Capacity <br />4 <br />6 <br />8 <br />20 <br />40 <br />60 <br />20 <br />40 <br />60 <br />59 <br />356 <br />1067 <br />24 <br />142 <br />427 <br />720 <br />2560 <br />5520 <br />17 <br />62 <br />133 <br />Monthly <br />Average <br />4 <br />20 <br />20 <br />1185' <br />474 <br />8320 <br />200 <br />The estimated average monthly ASW volume is 1185 CY in-place. <br />Assuming the average waste cell size, 20 operating days per month <br />and the assumptions listed with the Table, approximately 200 CY <br />of cover will be required monthly.
