F. Standard operating procedure is that incoming vehicles <br /> dump waste materials adjacent to loading pit. Loaders <br /> push the wastes into the loading pit where transfer <br /> station vehicles are located. A backhoe mounted above <br /> the loading pit spreads and compacts the waste in the <br /> trailer to maximize the amount of waste hauled by each <br /> vehicle. Transfer vehicles are then covered and weighed <br /> upon exiting. <br /> G. A recycling area for recovering metals from the waste <br /> stream is located at the southwest corner of the station. <br /> The metals are stored in roll off boxes. When the bins <br /> are full, the bins are transported to a Stockton <br /> salvaging firm. <br /> Used oil and ud batteries are currently not accepted at <br /> this station If the generator is unknown, the wastes <br /> will be handlrd by the procedure outlined in H. <br /> H. The facility has implemented a hazardous waste screening <br /> program in response to state laws which prohibit the <br /> handling of hazardous waste at the station. <br /> This program is designed to control the disposal of <br /> prohibited wastes at this station and to provide for <br /> proper removal and disposal of such wastes if detected. <br /> If hazardous waste is discovered, the customer will be <br /> told that he must remove the hazardous wastes from the <br /> station and arrange for shipment to a licensed disposal <br /> site. <br /> If the vehicle has left or generator is unknown, the <br /> hazardous waste will be moved to the hazardous waste <br /> storage locker. Within 90 days, Lovelace Transfer <br /> Station will contract a hazardous waste hauler to remove <br /> the waste and dispose of them at a hazardous waste <br /> disposal site. <br /> Additional measures may be required by the Local <br /> Enforcement Agency (LEA) . <br /> I. Anticipated changes in design and operation in the next <br /> 5 years are: <br /> a. An area in the northwest corner of the station will <br /> be developed as a recycling area. This area will <br /> be fenced, paved, and sloped to a drain that will <br /> discharge to station's drainage pond. Recyclable <br /> materials will be diverted to this area where it <br /> will be sorted and placed in roll-off boxes. Wood <br /> waste will be stockpiled to accumulate quantities <br /> for shipment. <br />
