Collection vehicle drivers shall inspect Containers before 2842 <br />Collection when practical. 2843 <br />B. Response to Hazardous Waste Identified During Collection. Under no 2844 <br />circumstances shall Contractor’s employees knowingly Collect Hazardous Waste or 2845 <br />remove unsafe or poorly containerized Hazardous Waste from a Collection Container. 2846 <br />If Contractor determines that material placed in any Container for Collection is 2847 <br />Hazardous Waste or other material that may not legally be accepted or safely 2848 <br />processed at the Designated Transfer and Processing Facility or presents a hazard 2849 <br />to Contractor's employees, or those at the Designated Transfer and Processing 2850 <br />Facility, the Contractor shall have the right to refuse to accept such material. The 2851 <br />Generator shall be contacted by the Contractor and requested to arrange proper 2852 <br />Disposal. If the Generator cannot be reached immediately, the Contractor shall, 2853 <br />before leaving the Premises, leave a non-collection notice, which indicates the reason 2854 <br />for refusing to Collect the material and lists the phone number for the San Mateo 2855 <br />County Household Hazardous Waste Facility, or other resources as directed by 2856 <br />Agency. Contractor’s environmental technician shall be notified to handle the issue 2857 <br />with the Generator. The Contractor’s environmental technician shall be required to 2858 <br />guide the Generator to safely containerizing the Hazardous Waste and shall explain 2859 <br />the Generator’s options for proper disposition of such material. 2860 <br />If Hazardous Waste is found in a Collection Container or Collection area that could 2861 <br />possibly result in imminent danger to people or property, the Contractor shall 2862 <br />immediately notify the Agency’s Fire Department using the nine-one-one (911) 2863 <br />emergency telephone number. The Contractor shall notify the Agency of any 2864 <br />Hazardous Waste identified in Containers or left at any Premises within twenty-four 2865 <br />(24) hours of identification of such material. 2866 <br />C. Response to Hazardous Waste Identified at Designated Transfer and 2867 <br />Processing Facility. Contractor shall not knowingly deliver Unpermitted Material to 2868 <br />the Designated Transfer and Processing Facility. The Operator shall use reasonable 2869 <br />business efforts and standard industry practices to detect and discover Unpermitted 2870 <br />Material at the facility and shall not knowingly accept Unpermitted Material. In the 2871 <br />event that Unpermitted Material is delivered to the Designated Transfer and 2872 <br />Processing Facility, the Operator shall be entitled to pursue whatever remedies, if 2873 <br />any, it may have against the Generator or Person(s) bringing such Unpermitted 2874 <br />Material to the Designated Transfer and Processing Facility provided that in no case 2875 <br />shall the Agency be considered the Person bringing such Unpermitted Material to the 2876 <br />Designated Transfer and Processing Facility. 2877 <br />Contractor acknowledges that in the event the operator identifies Unpermitted 2878 <br />Materials in the materials delivered by Contractor before the materials are unloaded 2879 <br />at the facility, the Operator has the right to reject the load and direct the Contractor to 2880 <br />cause removal and Disposal of the Unpermitted Material in a safe and lawful manner, 2881 <br />at the sole expense of the Contractor. If the Unpermitted Materials are delivered to 2882 <br />the Designated Transfer and Processing Facility by Contractor and unloaded at the 2883 <br />6.2.B. - Page 82
