00 3.1.4.1 MATERIALS SEPARATION AND SORTING <br />The CVWSMRF/TS is designed to accept and process self -haul waste material, <br />yard waste, wood waste and commingled recyclables. Once a load of <br />commingled recyclable material has been deposited on the MRF tipping floor, <br />loaders push the recyclable material into an in -floor conveyor. The conveyor <br />then carries the materials to a sort station where the recyclable materials are <br />recovered and placed in bunkers by sorting personnel. Materials separation and <br />recovery also occurs at the transfer station. Typical materials recovered at the <br />transfer station include: plastics, white goods, aluminum, tin cans, cardboard, <br />wires and coils, glass, tires, wood, waste oil and gypsum. <br />3.1.4.2 STORAGE OF SALVAGED OR RECYCLED MATERIALS <br />Storage of salvaged or recycled materials is performed in accordance with 14 CCR, <br />Section 17409.3(d). There is no long-term storage of recyclable materials at the <br />CVWSMRF/TS. All recyclable materials are stored in either a baled form (paper <br />products, metals and plastics) or in containers, bins or bunkers (glass). Baled <br />• materials are stored primarily inside the MRF building. Containers and bunkers for <br />glass are located outside the MRF building. CRTs are accepted at the facility and are <br />stored at the transfer station building as shown on Figure 5. The CRTs are delivered <br />to a recycler, California Electronic Asset Recovery. Waste oil is accepted from the <br />public and is stored in a double walled, 500 gallon tank located at the northern end <br />of the transfer station building as shown on Figure 5. The oil is removed by <br />Evergreen Environmental on a regular basis. All recovered wood waste is stored on a <br />concrete floor adjacent to the western wall of the transfer station and transported to <br />the compost operation area. Composting operations are a separate operation from <br />the CVWSMRF/TS. For additional detail regarding the composting operations please <br />refer to the Report of Composting Site Information (RCSI). <br />Central Valley Waste Services MRF/TS 3-4 <br />Transfer/Processing Report <br />(L:\Wstemgmt\2002.040\Reports\FinarrPR\Sec3:05/09/02) BRYAN A.
