n C Transfer/Processing Report Tracy Material Recovery & Transfer Facility 30703 S. MacArthur Drive, Tracy, California 95377 Tracy Material Recovery & Solid Waste Transfer, Inc. (Tracy), currently operates a solid waste transfer and recycling facility on two parcels (APN 253-130-19 & 26), totaling 51.7 acres, at 30703 S. MacArthur Drive in unincorporated San Joaquin County, near the City of Tracy. The owner of the land and the facility is Mr. Michael Repetto. Tracy seeks to expand the existing permitted operations at the MRF, as allowed by the Solid Waste Facility Permit, by making the following operational changes that would be declared to be significant by the California Department of Resources, Recycling, and Recovery (CalRecycle): • Increase the tonnage to 1,800 TPD to meet the needs of AB 32 for City of Tracy and San Joaquin County • Expand programs to accommodate the AB 32 mandate of providing commercial recycling to all business and multi -family units • Expand the outdoor green waste processing operations to allow the processing of co -collected residential green waste with food waste, to produce compost feedstock and/or anaerobic digestion feedstock • Include the processing of commercial food waste inside the MRF building to produce compost feedstock and/or anaerobic digestion feedstock • Add a 1 mega -watt wood waste biomass gasification plant • Increase the permitted hours of the facility for processing of materials in the MRF/TS building to 24 hours daily, Monday — Sunday; The Solid Waste Facility Permit would not be increased with respect to the currently -permitted hours for receipt of waste at the facility for either the commercial operations (4:00 A.M. — 6:00 P.M. daily) or public (6:00 A.M. — 6:00 P.M. daily). Tracy, along with affiliated hauling companies, Tracy Disposal and Delta Disposal, has operated a recyclables collection, processing, and transfer operation at the project site since 1995. The land use entitlement history is provided in Table 1 on the next page. A Full Solid Waste Facility Permit (SWFP) was issued by the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department, acting as Local Enforcement Agency (LEA), prior to operations, in March 1994, which has been revised and renewed periodically, most recently issued in July 2003 and renewed in March 2012. A copy of the permit and a new application for this SWFP revision are provided in Appendix B.
