• provided to direct the flow of traffic. Spotter and shift supervisors direct traffic and facility operations in an effort to reduce potentially dangerous situations from occurring. Visitors to the site are required to park in designated parking areas adjacent to the main office building to avoid circulation conflict with trucks. 3.2.8 VECTOR, BIRD AND ANIMAL CONTROL In accordance with 14 CCR, Section 17410.4, the operator institutes measures to control or prevent the propagation, harborage and attraction of flies, rodents or other vectors and animals, and to minimize bird attraction. All waste materials which are brought to the site are transported for disposal within 48 hours. Materials that are recovered as recyclables are processed and removed from the site at regular intervals. These materials will not attract vectors. Items received at the facility which tend to attract vectors (e.g., food, wastes, seed, etc.) are rapidly processed and transferred off-site for ultimate disposal at a Class III landfill. All containers are inspected and cleaned regularly if they appear to be an attraction to any vectors. Proper grading and drainage prevents any standing water from accumulating along the edge of the buildings or wash areas. If fly larvae are noted, the area is sprayed with an appropriate fly control agent and wet material is removed so larvaie will not return. Chain-link fence and masonry walls around the property also prevent the entrance of larger rodents (animals) into the facility. A regular maintenance program to prevent vector problems is conducted by a professional exterminator. 3.2.9 TRAFFIC CONTROL Pursuant to 14 CCR, Section 17418.3, traffic flow through the CVWSMRF/TS shall be controlled to prevent interference with or creation of a safety hazard on adjacent public streets or roads, on-site safety hazards and interference with operations. Adequate on-site (off public street) parking for transfer vehicles is provided at the CVWSMRF/TS as shown on Figure 2. The facility is accessed by Turner Road which is accessible by surface streets or Highway 99. Turner Road terminates at the facility gate, so there is no "through" traffic.
