CkMC3 GUE IS. RAAFF MR. ENGINEER ... TF.LEPHONR 478-7797 -8722 SAN PASgi)At, WAY, STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA 95210 with a fifty boom and a 3/4 yard bucket and a D-7 tractor with a bulldozer blade or a scraper® The climatic conditions for the site area Can be summarized as - Warm or Hot and Pry during the summer with rainfall averaging about 15 inches during the Minter. The operation is usually carried out during the slimmer months and no adverse climatic factors have been encountered. Since operations were planned for the dry period' the access roads from the State Highway have been paved with asphaltic concrete so that no dust. problem will occur. On the few occasions that dust in the actual disposal area has been a problem, a water wagon has been rented and used to water down the work site. The quantities of waste receivers have decreased greatly from the first years of operation of the LUF plant when nearly 15,000 cubic yards was disposed of initially. At the present time, the volume.of waste is around 4 to 5000 cubic yards per year. The rate of hauling to the site is controlled by the number of trucks used (5 or 6) and presents no problems of disposal or placeme*nt at the disposal -site. The daily haul to the site will run from 240 to about 300 cubic yards of material over the 15 to 20 working days involved. The disposal site has a capacity of about 20,000 cubic yards rete ning. This gives a life expectancy of 4 or 5 -years based on the recent experience. If LOF continues to improve its operations so that the decrease of waste cullet continues the site may last for 8 or 10 years. A portion of the most recent USGS flap of the area is enclosed and on it are shown the access roads and the structures that exist in 'thea •surrounding areas. -Access to the site is from Mossdals3_ Road, the Easterly fr.tbntage read of 1-5, over a paved entrance road which goes -under the Western Pacific Railway in an underpass constructed for this disposal site 1 rld ; ontinues along the base of the levee on the westerly ban -.k of the San-•Jbaquin River to the. site.' 'Traffic to. the site is -.completely under.; the• control df' the opesstor of the site sand the LDF- plarsonnel. As stated above, 5 or 6 trucks are used and, in one days time, from50 to 60 loads a day are brought to the site. The trucks used in the hauling have been of two types. The initial hauling was done with semi --trailer dump trucks with a capacity of 10 to .12 cubic yards. In the recent -years, 10 wheel dump trucks with a capacity of 6 to 8 cubic yards•hays been used.
