E <br />STATE OF CALIFORNIA Pete Wilson, Governor <br />CALIFORNIA INTEGRATED WASTE MANAGEMENT BOARD <br />�. <br />8800 Cal Center Drive <br />Sacramento, California 95826 C <br />\ x <br />Mr. Tom Horton <br />Solid Waste Manager <br />San Joaquin County Department of Public Works <br />1810 East Hazelton Avenue <br />Stockton, California 95201 <br />Dear Mr. Horton: <br />Subject: Completeness of Preliminary Closure and Postclosure <br />Maintenance Plans for the Foothill Sanitary Landfill, <br />San Joaquin County, Facility No. 39 -AA -0004 <br />On January 14, 1994, the California Integrated Waste Management <br />Board [Board] received preliminary closure and postclosure <br />maintenance materials for the above facility, dated January 1994. <br />Public Resources Code, Section 43501 requires operators of solid <br />waste landfills to prepare closure and postclosure maintenance <br />plans for approval by the San Joaquin County Department of public <br />Health Services [Local Enforcement Agency (LEA)], ,the Central <br />Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board [Regional Water <br />Board], and the Board. Title 14, California Code of Regulations <br />[14 CCR], Division 7, Chapter 5, Article 3.4 allows submittal of <br />preliminary plans when a facility is not anticipating closure <br />within two years. <br />Based on a review for completeness, the preliminary plans are <br />deemed incomplete and rejected for_filing. At a minimum, <br />preliminary plans must include the items listed in 14 CCR 18261.3 <br />and 18264.3, and be based on the closure standards found in <br />14 CCR, Division 7, Chapter 3, Article 7.8, and Chapter 5, <br />Articles 3.4 and 3.5. Board staff will not proceed with the <br />detailed review of the submittal until corrections to the <br />following omissions in the plans are submitted: <br />1. An accurate estimate of the maximum extent of the landfill <br />that will ever require closure at any given time during the <br />life of the landfill must be provided [14 CCR <br />18261.3(a)(3)]. Currently 80 of the 800 permitted acres <br />are currently in use and will require closure. The closure <br />and postclosure maintenance cost estimates are for only 50 <br />acres (two 20 -acre cells plus one 10 -acre excavation area). <br />The maximum extent of landfill requiring closure would <br />appear to be greater than 50 acres. In addition, please <br />provide closure and postclosure maintenance cost estimates <br />for the entire 800 -acre facility. <br />-- Printed on Recycled Paper -- <br />
