5) This facility maintains a Volvo H091 wheel loader on-site for maintenance and operations.
6) Used antifreeze and used oil are collected and stored under a shelter with secondary containment until
collected by the recycler. The secondary containment system appeared to be functioning properly during this
inspection. Used oil filters are placed on an oil drain system and stored in the collection area until removed
from the site by the recycler. The recycler was on site collecting the used oil during this inspection.
7) Used batteries are collected and stored on a pallet under the used antifreeze and oil collection shelter until
removed from the site for recycling.
8) Recyclable electronics are currently collected on-site, palletized, and maintained within a covered shelter on a
concrete pad adjacent to the metal recycling area. Incoming electronics are being stored and maintained in an
orderly manner and managed in such a way as to prevent breakage of screens and tubes until collected for
transport to the electronics recycling facility.
9) The white goods/scrap metal recycling area was reviewed. Recyclable metals are separated by type and
maintained within separate bays on the concrete pad.

10) All refrigerant containing appliances are maintained separately from other recyclable metals until the
refrigerant is extracted. Upon extraction, the whitegoods are marked with an X and placed into the collection
bays until hauled to the metal recycling facility. All recyclable metals are being maintained on the concrete
collection pad. Refrigerator doors are removed upon receipt of the appliance and stored with non-refrigerant
containing metals.
11) A cover-crop of native warm season grasses has been established and is being maintained throughout the
landfill. The cover crop is mowed throughout the year as needed.
12) Areas of sparse cover were observed along the northern edge of the top lift. *These areas should be seeded
and mulched to establish a groundcover suitable to prevent erosion of the landfill cap system.
13) No areas of standing water were observed on the landfill during this inspection.
