2. The correct signage is at the entrance of the facility listing the facility name, permit number, and emergency contact
information as well as material accepted at the facility.
3. The facility accepts waste Monday through Friday 0530 to 0700 for private operators, Monday through Friday 0730
to 1630 for the public, and Saturday 0730 to 1200.
4. The condition of the tipping floor is consistent with daily operations. Some wear was observed near the edge of the
transfer trailer loading bay. Continue to monitor and repair the tipping floor as needed.
5. The waste observed on top of the push wall was consistent with daily operations. Ensure that the waste on top of
the push walls is removed and properly disposed of at the end of the operating day.
6. A hole was observed in the northern sidewall of the transfer station. It is recommended that the hole be repaired so
that waste does not leave the transfer station building.
7. A large amount of waste was observed within the transfer trailer loading bay. During the inspection, an attendant
utilized a rake to remove the excess waste from the transfer trailer loading bay ledge. The attendant would then
utilize equipment to remove the waste and take it to the tipping floor. Ensure that the waste is removed from the
transfer trailer loading bay as needed throughout the day and at the end of the operating day.
8. Windblown waste was actively being picked up during this inspection; however, a large amount was observed in
the riprap and throughout the facility. Ensure that the windblown waste is picked up prior to the end of the
operating day.
9. A hole was observed in the floor of one of the full trailers. No leachate was observed to be leaking from the hole.
It is recommended that the trailers be inspected for defects prior to filling with waste to help minimize possible
leachate releases.
10. Digital photographs were taken during the inspection.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report.
