Facility Capacity Study <br /> Tracy Material Recovery Facility and Transfer Station Expansion <br /> 30703 S. MacArthur Drive, Tracy, California 95377 <br /> Compost Facility <br /> Facility Capacity- 600 TPD <br /> The composting facility will process an average of 132 TPD of green materials and food <br /> waste for conversion into compost and mulch products, with a seasonal peak of 200 <br /> TPD. The grinding equipment is capable of processing from 50 tons per hour. With an <br /> operating day of up to 14 hours per day — but which in reality will only operate up to 12 <br /> hours per day—the facility could easily process 600 TPD. <br /> Pad Space Capacity— 4,000 CYD <br /> The Compost Pad space is adequate for storage of up to 4,000 CYD of raw organic <br /> material, where 1,600 CYD per day may be received, allowing up to 3 days of storage <br /> before grinding. Since grinding occurs every 48 hours, there is adequate storage <br /> capacity for incoming organic materials. <br /> Inert Processing Facility <br /> Inert Processing Facility- 3,000 TPD <br /> The Inert Processing Facility will operate as a crushing facility for concrete, asphalt, and <br /> like inert materials for recycled aggregate products. The grinding equipment is capable <br /> of processing 250 tons per hour. With an operating day of up to 16 hours per day— but <br /> which in reality will only operate up to 10 hours per day — the facility could easily <br /> process 3,000 TPD. <br /> The actual amount of material to be received will vary based upon seasonal peak <br /> construction activity. <br /> Pad Space Capacity— 3,500 CYD <br /> The Inert Pad Space allows 3,500 CYD of mixed C&D material, where 3,500 CYD per <br /> day may be received. <br /> Types and Numbers of Vehicles <br /> Vehicles anticipated to enter the Tracy MRF & TS include (1) collection trucks and <br /> hauling vehicles, (2) trucks removing recovered materials, (3) transfer trucks carrying <br /> li solid waste to a landfill, and (4) vehicles used to transport employees to the facility. <br /> Traffic volume was assessed during the original land use permitting and approved at <br /> 560 vehicles per day (with an incoming total tonnage volume of 1,038 tons per day). <br /> Based upon a proposed volume of 2,500 tons per day of incoming solid waste, a total of <br /> 1,727 vehicles per day, or 1,167 additional vehicles per day, are expected, as shown in <br /> Table 5. The projected hourly traffic is provided in Table 6. <br /> • <br /> 7 <br />
