were up to date and good. The Ops Plan specifies that each load be inspected by a spotter.
6 - Facility contracts with CEI for transportation of the MSW to permitted landfills listed above.
7 - CEI has now contracted to operate this Transfer Station with its own staff.
8 - The tipping floor was full in one bay due to the recent holidays and inclement weather in past weeks.
9 - It was noted that the leachate underdrains were full, from one end to the other end. This could present a
problem that leachate could drain outside the facility. This needs to be address ASAP to ensure compliance.
10 - The large leachate tank was empty. This leachate system was recently replaced to prevent issues and has been
working well on prior inspections.
11 - There is starting to be an issue with windblown trash on the facility footprint. This needs to addressed and it is
required to be picked up by the end of the business day and returned to the Transfer Station for proper disposal.
12 - The loaded trailer area had an issue with leaking trailers in the past but had been corrected. Troughs were
purchased to place behind trailers to capture any leachate that may occur. All but 1 has been destroyed. It appears
they have been run over. The only 1 left is being used as a trash can for windblown trash. This area needs to be
cleaned of all trash daily. It appeared that some leachate has been leaking onto the concrete pad. This will also
need to be address.
13 - This Facility Inspection was un-announced. There will be a follow-up UN-ANNOUNCED inspection conducted
due to the issues found during this inspection.
14 - Corrective action is needed in several areas of this facility from items listed above.
