Report of Composting Site Information <br />Tracy Material Recovery and Transfer Facility <br />30703 S. MacArthur Drive, Tracy, Ca. 95377 <br />• Personnel monitoring the temperatures will be trained in proper <br />placement of probes and standard operating procedures, which will <br />be utilized whenever possible to aid in eliminating variables. <br />• Points for probe insertion are constructed into the cover and are <br />designed to produce the most representative readings of internal <br />temperatures. <br />Extended Aerated Static Pile <br />An extended aerated static pile is operated essentially in the same way as the <br />elongated aerated static pile. However, new feedstock is placed alongside and up <br />against the previously placed material. The turning cycle and time for compost <br />completion is essentially the same as for the elongated aerated static pile. The identity <br />of each ASP cell is designated by an identification number in the control system and on <br />the operations diagram. All information pertaining to each pile will be calculated and <br />stored in the computerized control system (and documented in site records) which will <br />allow instant identification of pile status (e.g. start date, temperature readings and <br />historical profile, air flow, and sampling) and allow site personnel to isolate material <br />waiting testing results. <br />Following ASP composting (approximately 45 days) the material is cured an average of <br />15 to 30 days. The finished product is then stored on-site until the product is shipped off <br />to market. <br />0 "Clean Green Material" Production <br />In addition to capability to compost material, the operator seeks the flexibility to produce <br />a "clean green material' from select loads of clean green material, yard trimmings, and <br />wood waste. <br />The "clean green" material may be used on-site in the ASP system, or will be used as a <br />mulch product for sale off-site. The mulch material, up to 150 TPD, could be a back - <br />hauled in outgoing transfer trailer, thereby not contributing to the expected traffic loading. <br />"Chipping and Grinding Operations" are described in 14CCR §17852(a) (10) means an <br />operation, that does not produce compost. A chipping and grinding operation may be <br />located within a Full Solid Waste Facility Permitted facility, such as this compost facility. <br />An overview of site operations for the "clean green material' production is presented: <br />"Clean green material" will only be produced from incoming loads of yard trimmings, <br />grass clippings, and some brush. <br />• The green material will be processed within 7 days of receipt. <br />"Clean green" material will not stay on-site for more than 30 days. Either the material <br />will be transported off-site to be sold as mulch or composted on-site. <br />17 <br />
