Foothill Landfill <br />Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan <br />Page 30 <br />6.1.7 Non-Industrial Areas <br />6.1.7.1 Scale House Area: <br />The scale house is located approximately half a mile east of the <br />North Waverly Road entrance on the west side of the landfill <br />property within Drainage Area H (SWPPP Map 2). Activities <br />performed in the scale house area include the reception, initial <br />inspection (load check), weighing, and cost assessment of non- <br />hazardous materials being received into the landfill. During the <br />load check, any observed materials not accepted at Foothill are <br />identified and refused. <br />West of the scale house is the employee break room trailer and <br />employee parking. Northwest of the break room trailer is the <br />facility office. East of the break room trailer, separated by a fence, is the corral used for the <br />seasonal grazing cattle. <br />6.1.7.2 Undeveloped Areas: <br />The active landfill area is surrounded by open range land <br />(SWPPP Map 2 and Map 5). The activities in the non- <br />industrial areas include groundwater monitoring, surface <br />water monitoring, and the grazing of cattle and livestock. <br />Development of these areas may occur in the future. <br />However, the California Environmental Quality Act <br />(CEQA) regulations do not apply to the landfill due to the <br />landfill being in place prior to CEQA being enacted; <br />therefore, the landfill’s current environmental quality <br />program is grandfathered in. <br />6.1.7.3 Solar Farm Area: <br />6.1.7.4 To the north of the active landfill is a solar farm <br />(SWPPP Map 6). While the approximately 30- <br />acre solar farm is on landfill property, the area <br />is used strictly to generate solar energy and is <br />not used for any landfill activities. <br />Figure 14 - Scale house and <br />initial inspection <br />Figure 15 - Non-industrial range land <br />surrounds the landfill <br />Figure 16 - Non-industrial solar farm <br />area
