0 0 <br /> 14 CCR 17535 - Litter <br /> Citation• <br /> Because of gusty winds on the day of this inspection Mr. Ramos <br /> observed substantial litter going outside the perimeter <br /> boundary at the southeastern corner of the facility. Mr Ramos <br /> was told by Felipe Lomas (site supervisor) that there's no way <br /> they can control litter from going off-site during gusty <br /> winds. Extending the height of the fence at the southeast <br /> corner of the station may be helpful in containing the litter <br /> from going off-site. <br /> Response• <br /> Mr. Ramos has suggested extending the height of the fence at <br /> the southeastern corners of the site to prevent litter from <br /> going outside the facility. The cause of the litter blowing <br /> over to the fence was the gusty windy conditions that day. <br /> Experience at the site has proven that extending the fence <br /> height will not help under gusty wind conditions. An extended <br /> fence has been tried before, and the wind still blows litter <br /> over the top. In addition, a safety hazard would be created <br /> by extending the fence height in that exiting transfer trucks <br /> view of approaching traffic from the west would be impaired. <br /> The existing fence extension has been bent down past <br /> perpendicular to the perimeter fence in this area and small- <br /> mesh chicken wire has been attached to it. This solution is <br /> helping during periods of gusty wind conditions; the wire <br /> tends to trap litter until the gust subsides and then the <br /> litter falls inside the site instead of blowing up and over <br /> the fence. This solution will be continued to be monitored <br /> by the Solid Waste Foreman. If it appears it will not work <br /> an alternative solution will be sought. <br /> This station has had a daily clean up program for the last 6 <br /> years. It includes daily clean up of litter both on and off <br /> site. <br /> AREAS OF CONCERN <br /> 14 CCR 17557 - Station Maintenance Program <br /> Concern• <br /> Mr. Ramos observed a minor pothole (depression) near the fuel <br /> storage tank (in front of two-fifty five gallon containers) . <br /> This area must be repaired as soon as possible to prevent <br /> 4 <br />
