Green Materials. If more than 2,500 cubic yards of green materials and agricultural <br /> plant materials are in the feedstock or active compost at any one time, the final product <br /> will be analyzed for maximum metal concentrations and pesticide residues, according to <br /> U.S. EPA methodology 8270. <br /> Mixed Solid Waste. The operator of a mixed solid waste composting facility shall comply <br /> with the applicable environmental health standards as follows: <br /> • At least one composite sample shall be tested for every 5,000 cubic yards of mixed <br /> solid waste compost provided, or every 6 months, whichever comes first. <br /> • The samples will be analyzed for maximum metal concentrations and pathogen reduc- <br /> tion requirements. <br /> • The moisture and oxygen content of active compost will be measured on a weekly <br /> basis at the point of temperature measurement. <br /> C. Composting Site Improvements <br /> 1. Identification Signs <br /> Describe locations where signs are to be posted. Also describe information to be <br /> included on signs. The signs must be posted at all points of access and contain the <br /> name of the operator and any other information required by the local land use <br /> authority. <br /> Signs are posted at all entrances stating that hazardous wastes are prohibited by law from <br /> being accepted at the site. Other signs identify the operator of the site, hours of operation, <br /> and the site and company office telephone numbers. A schedule of charges for accepting <br /> compostable material will be posted along with a list of the general types of materials <br /> accepted. In addition, signs are posted at both office trailers stating the site hours, site and <br /> company telephone numbers, rules and regulations for all drivers, the site speed limit <br /> (10 miles per hour), and that all loads must be covered. There are also portable signs at <br /> the landfill to help the waste haulers steer their way through the facility to the appropriate <br /> WMU. <br /> 2. Entry Signs <br /> If the facility is open to the public, describe the posting location and information <br /> provided on entry signs. At a minimum, signs should contain the following informa- <br /> tion: schedule of charges, hours of operation, and a listing of general types of <br /> materials which either will be accepted or will not be accepted. <br /> The entry signs are the same as the identification signs described above. <br /> ma10029W4.wp5145 <br /> 9/28/94 4.5 <br />
