Report of Composting Site Information Tracy Material Recovery Facility and Transfer Station 30703 S. MacAurthur Drive, Tracy, Ca. 95377 of each ASP cell is designated by an identification number in the control system and on the operations diagram. All information pertaining to each pile will be calculated and stored in the computerized control system (and documented in site records) which will allow instant identification of pile status (e.g. start date, temperature readings and historical profile, air flow, and sampling) and allow site personnel to isolate material waiting testing results. Following ASP composting (approximately 45 days) the material is cured an average of 15 to 30 days. The finished product is then stored on-site until the product is shipped off to market. "Clean Green Material" Production In addition to capability to compost material, the operator seeks the flexibility to produce a "clean green material" from select loads of clean green material, yard trimmings, and wood waste. The "clean green" material may be used on-site in the ASP system, or will be used as a mulch product for sale off-site. The mulch material, up to 150 TPD, could be a back- hauled in outgoing transfer trailer, thereby not contributing to the expected traffic loading. "Chipping and Grinding Operations" are described in 14CCR §17852(x) (10) means an operation, that does not produce compost. A chipping and grinding operation may be located within a Full Solid Waste Facility Permitted facility, such as this compost facility. op An overview of site operations for the "clean green material' production is presented: • "Clean green material" will only be produced from incoming loads of yard trimmings, grass clippings, and some brush. • The green material will be processed within 7 days of receipt. • "Clean green" material will not stay on-site for more than 30 days. Either the material will be transported off-site to be sold as mulch or composted on-site. "Clean green material" will be sampled at a frequency of one composite of twelve samples for each 5,000 cubic yards consistent with 14 CCR §17868.1. Samples will be analyzed for metals consistent with 14 CCR §17868.2. The Site Manager shall maintain records of sample collection and analytical results. Additional Uses of Materials The MRF/TS and CF proposes the use of the following significant waste stream that is a non-organic material. These materials are incorporated in the compost process: Top Soil Mixing Operations Soils could be available from many different sources; commercial, residential, construction and demolition, and land clearing. Residual soil is typically found in loads 17
