Control Measures If unauthorized wastes are discovered, control measures will be implemented to protect public health, safety and the environment. Prior to isolation, handling or removal of hazardous wastes from the facility, efforts will be made to control dusts, fumes, mists, vapors or gases. Loads of tires are not accepted at the facility. If a commercial load is tipped at the transfer station that contains tires, the spotter will require that the hauler take the tires back to the generator. If the tires are not discovered until after the hauler has departed but the hauler or generator can be identified, then the tires will be pulled out and stored until the hauler or generator returns to pick them up. If we are unable to determine the hauler or generator, then the tires are pulled out and stored while arranging for transportation and disposal at an approved tire disposal facility. If self- haul vehicles enter and tires are visible at the scale entrance, the customers are advised that the station does not accept tires and they must take the tires with them. If the customer dumps th~ load and the spotter identifies tires in the load, then the spotter will notify the customer that they must be loaded back on to the customer's vehicle. If the customer departs prior to identifying the tires in the load, then the tires will be separated and stored while arranging for proper transportation and disposal. Occasionally, one or two tires may be discovered on site mixed with the refuse. These are considered miscellaneous and will not be separated out of the refuse. Compressed gas containers will be removed from waste load when spotted. If a commercial hauler dumps a load that includes a metal discard that may contain compressed gas, the container (refrigerator, air conditioner, gas canister, etc.) is loaded back onto the hauler's vehicle for return to the generator. If the compressed gas container is discovered after the hauler has left but the hauler or generator can be identified, then the item is pulled out and stored until the hauler or generator can return and pick up the item. If facility Contractor cannot determine the hauler or generator, the item will be pulled out and stored until an approved certified recycler can certify the items for disposal. In any of the above the instances, the incident would be recorded in the special occurrence log. - E-wastes (e.g., CRT monitors, etc) will be removed from the waste when spotted, and will be stored in a 6-cy bin located adjacent to the tipping area during daily operations, and moved into the container (provided by the Subcontractor handling E- Waste) for safekeeping prior to removal from facility. Drivers working for the collection contractor are responsible to: deliver used motor oil collected on routes to the container (provided by the Subcontractor handling waste oil); deposit used motor oil filters collected on routes to the container (provided by the Subcontractor handling used oil filters); deliver batteries and cell phones collected on routes to the container (provided by the Subcontractor handling batteries and cell phones); screen all material collected on routes for hazardous materials and not deliver any hazardous materials to the site.
