A landscaped setback area consisting of living plant materials—a mix of shrubbery, turf, and trees is utilized to screen the facility. There are no scenic vistas or scenic highways visible from the project site; nor is the facility visible from any nearby scenic vista or scenic highway.

Bottled or tap water located in the administrative office/maintenance building and MRF/TS building may be supplied to the employees; coolers or individual bottles of water may be maintained at employee break areas during operations. Employee restroom facilities are available in the MRF/TS building, at the maintenance/office building. The operator will maintain all sanitary and hand- washing facilities, which may be required by applicable state or local requirements, in a reasonably clean and adequately supplied condition. J.

The amount of free liquids that may be generated from this material is minimized through the use of best management practices; all process water is retained onsite. Dust mitigation does involve spraying of water from hand held hoses onto excessively dust-producing materials during transfer operations. The amount of liquids added for dust suppression is minimal and is not enough to generate any ponding or standing water. The facility has been exempted from coverage under the NPDES General Industrial Permit by the State Water Resources Control Board because all operations occur below existing grade and stormwater is retained onsite in a lined basin. Surface water runoff, including all process water, will be directed to a onsite retention basin by use of grading design, drain pipes, and drainage ditches, where it will be properly treated, if necessary, to eliminate potential environmental 40
