II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION hazardous wastes special wastes liquid wastes or infectious wastes. The transfer station p q conducts load checks once a week under its existing load check program. Collection trucks currently used to collect waste on commercial and residential routes,for transport to the East Stockton Transfer Station and Forward Landfill,are parked on site at other times and washed twice a week(on Tuesday and Friday) at the site's steam cleaning islands. The facility currently employs 66 people,as maintenance and facility staff,collection vehicle drivers, and managerial, sales, and clerical office staff. Existing structures on the site east of Pershing include the office, maintenance building, maintenance and equipment storage buildings, steam cleaning islands, stormwater collection pond, and employee and visitor parking area shown on the site plan,Figure II-2. Additional maintenance and equipment storage buildings currently extend south of those shown and would be removed to accommodate the modifications proposed under the project. D. PROPOSED TRANSFER STATION OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The project would allow Stockton Scavengers Transfer Station to receive up to 1000 TPD of non- hazardous commercial, industrial and residential municipal solid waste and recyclables, construction and demolition (C&D) debris,and public self-haul waste. In addition,the facility would accept and grind up to 150 TPD of green waste, the receipt of which would be in addition to the 1000 TPD proposed capacity for other types of accepted wastes. The transfer station would operate seven days a week, from 4 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. The transfer station would be open to self haul traffic during these times; operations on Sunday would be limited to receiving only public self haul waste. A random load check for household hazardous waste,which is sometimes found in small quantities in municipal solid waste, would be conducted bi-weekly. INCOMING LOADS PROCESSABLE AND NON-PROCESSABLE LOADS Figure II-2 shows the site layout. As shown, incoming vehicles enter the site from Navy Drive, near the eastern boundary of the site. Refuse collection vehicles would enter via the left lane and be weighed at the inbound scale. Non-processable loads (i.e., loads that are unlikely to contain substantial quantities of recyclables) would be directed to the"non-processable"area of the tipping floor, while processable loads(i.e., loads with substantial quantities of recyclables) would be directed to the "processable"area. Materials recovery at the transfer station will focus on recovering inertsl and other materials collected in rolloff containers from commercial and industrial customers, new construction/remodeling contractors, and residential customers. Therefore, all incoming rolloff vehicles,as well as selected front end loader routes known to have t Inert materials may include concrete,brick,and soils.
