® In this situation, the waste is removed from the site and disposed at a hazardous waste <br />facility by a licensed hazardous waste hauler. If the waste is containerized, it is removed <br />to an on-site hazardous waste storage locker. If it is not containerized, the area is <br />marked to adequately offset operations until the material is removed, and procedures <br />listed "Procedures for Handling Identified Hazardous Waste", are followed for disposal. <br />Random Load Checking <br />Commercial haulers are selected for random load checks because of the potentially large quantity <br />of unacceptable materials that could be delivered, and because commercial haulers have an <br />account with San Joaquin County through which the hauler can be billed for handling costs, if <br />necessary. <br />Each week day (Monday through Friday), supervisory staff will randomly select a collection <br />® vehicle that dump on the commercial side of the transfer building for a load check. Vehicles will <br />include roll -off trucks, front-end loaders, rear loaders, and side loaders using the commercial side <br />of the tipping floor. <br />The selected vehicle will be routed to the tipping floor and the load will be spread to a depth of <br />about one foot using a front loader for inspection. Site staff will then inspect the load for <br />hazardous waste. <br />If unacceptable material is found in the load, the vehicle operator will be asked to remove the <br />material from the site. If the material cannot be removed, then the vehicle owner will be <br />contacted and given the opportunity to remove the hazardous waste within 24 hours. If the <br />owner declines to remove the material, then site staff will manage the material and will bill the <br />owner for the cost of handling. <br />Lovelace Transfer Station Solid Waste Division <br />HHW Exclusion Program Public Works Department <br />April 2010 San Joaquin County <br />
