2-8 Forward Composting Facility SWT Engineering Report of Composting Site Information - January 2022 including runoff from the compost piles. This system is illustrated in Figure 6 and runoff calculations are attached in Appendix C. a. Leachate Barriers There are no leachate barriers currently proposed for the site. b. Leachate Barrier Locations There are no leachate barriers currently existing and/or proposed for the site. c. Monitoring and Sampling Procedures Compost runoff will be collected in lined compost retention basin located in the southwest corner of the site. The retention basin contains a pan lysimeter which is monitored in accordance with the facility’s Waste Discharge Requirements. Runoff will be sampled and monitored to meet pretreatment requirements or the site's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and Storm Water Monitoring Plan depending on final disposal of collected water. d. Leachate Volume As discussed previously, significant leachate generation is not anticip ated. e. Treatment, Storage and Discharge Water collected in the compost retent ion basin will either be evaporated, used during the initial mixing of the compost, used for dust con trol, pumped to the on-site leachate evaporation pond, or transpo rted to a municipal treatment works depending on the quality and quantity of collected water. Water used in the initial mixing of the compost will bring the water content of the compost to proper levels. f. Landfill Sites The Compost Facility is not located on an existing or closed refuse fill area. However, it should be noted that the facility is located on an area permitted for future WMUs at the Forward Landfill. 2.1.8 Site Access The entrance to the RRF /Compost Facility is all-weather surfaces. On-site roads are constructed, as needed. These on-site roads will be constructed with on -site soils, crushed asphalt or aggregate, or both. The roads are maintained by site personnel. The first 120 feet of the entrance road are paved. The area is swept, as needed . Debris is picked up, the roads are graded occasionally, and watered daily for dust control. In addition, litter is raked or picked up by hand. In the event that dirt is inadvertently tracked onto Austin Road by vehicles leaving the site , the street sweeper will be deployed. The site is graded to provide all-weather access. Storage Areas. Extra equipment is stored in the equipment maintenance a rea and storage yard at the landfill. Extra parts are stored in a trailer on the southwestern side of the RRF building. Parking Areas . Visitor and employee parking are on the east side of the RRF building as shown on Figure 5. Access. Access to the sit e is from Austin Road, a rural two -lane, paved road and is shown o n Figure 5. The access road to the RRF /Compost Facility is located about 1,600 feet south of
