LAST INSPECTION: The back push wall on the tipping floor is in need of replacement. Bids have been submitted. Please address this repair as soon as possible before it becomes a non-compliance issue due to leachate leaving the tipping floor onto the ground and the Transfer Station has to be closed. A temporary fix is in place. THIS INSPECTION: The back push wall is almost completely gone. Temporary box container is being used. Waste is falling out and from under this container. 12. Be sure NO LEACHATE leaves the tipping floor. ALL LEACHATE MUST GO INTO THE LEACHATE COLLECTION TANK. Any water that comes in contact with waste is classified as LEACHATE. Some was noted on the South Side of the tipping floor in a low area. Need to fill the low areas after removal of LEACHATE to keep storm water from ponding thus becoming LEACHATE. 13. The equipment seems to be working properly. 14. The containment area around the oil storage has collapsed. 15. Overall the tipping floor area is in need of better management. 16. The yard waste is getting out of control at the front temporary storage area. 17. Digital pictures were taken during this inspection, and some are attached to this report.
