If nuisance birds ever become an issue at the facility, the use of caps, kites, and/or <br />falconry-based abatement may be utilized as control measures. In the event that caps are utilized <br />in the future as bird deterrents, noise levels will be monitored and controlled, as needed. <br />Transfer Station <br />For the transfer station, recyclables, such as glass and aluminum cans, that are stored overnight <br />are kept on the tipping floor to deter vectors, birds, and rodents. The majority of waste handling <br />activities are conducted in the partially enclosed RRF building (open on one side). <br />Compost Facility <br />For the compost facility, typical high temperatures maintained in the active compost are <br />sufficient to kill pathogens, insect larvae, and insects. <br />Recordkeeping <br />Records of monitoring and any corrective measures taken to address infestations, should they <br />occur, are maintained at the facility. <br />
