Description of Accepted Waste
This transfer facility is permitted to receive the following waste types: a) “Construction and demolition debris” as defined in G.S. 130A-290 (a)(4) means solid waste resulting solely from construction,
remodeling, repair, or demolition operations on pavement, buildings, or other structures. C&D waste does not include municipal and industrial wastes that may be generated by the on-going operations at buildings or structures.
b) “Inert debris” as defined by G.S. 130A-290 (a)(14) means solid waste that consists solely of concrete, brick, concrete block, uncontaminated soil, rock, and gravel. c) “Land-clearing debris” as defined in G.S. 130A-290 (a)(15) means
solid waste, which is generated solely from land-clearing activities, such as stumps, trees, limbs, brush, grass, and other naturally occurring vegetative material. a) “Asphalt” in accordance with G.S. 130-294(m). Asphalt is managed
in accordance with the facility’s ‘Operation Plan for Sorting Tear-off Asphalt Shingles for Recycling’, submitted with previous permit applications. Volume

This transfer facility expects to manage approximately 105 tons per day. This number is an estimate using the most recent trailing 12-month average.
Service Area

This facility is permitted to receive C&D waste generated within the following North Carolina counties: Wake, Johnston, Harnett, Chatham, Orange, Durham, Granville, Franklin, and Nash.

Daily Operations
Trucks enter the facility through the scale area. The scale attendant weighs the truck coming in in order to obtain a gross vehicle weight. Trucks then proceed to the concrete tipping floor.
Once on the concrete pad, vehicles dump out their loads. The workers on the
yard will then separate out recyclables using both heavy machinery and by hand. Workers on the yard will then move the remaining debris in to a large pile to prepare for transfer into a tractor-trailer to be removed from the facility.
Workers on the yard will periodically make passes around the facility to control
windblown debris. A final pass will be made at the end of the operating day to confirm the site is clean and ready to accept material for the next day. Except for inert debris, recyclables are sorted and stored in containers at the end
of each operating day. Recyclable containers are covered at the end of each
operating day, and during precipitation events. Non-recyclables in the sorting area are placed in transfer trailers for disposal by the end of each operating day.
Recycled materials placed in containers are removed from the site once the
container is full. Recyclable material is removed from the site at the end of each month regardless of the amount in the container. No recyclable material is stored on-site longer than one year.
Security

The facility is secured by means of a fence around the facility. A gate with a chain and a padlock secures the front access. The scale house is secured by a door lock with a deadbolt and a security alarm. The access road entering the
facility is of all-weather construction consisting of compacted gravel and is maintained in good condition.
Facility Signage

Signs are posted at the entrance to the truck scale that state no municipal solid waste, hazardous waste or liquid waste can be received at the facility; and
provide information on the hours of operation, the facility permit number,
emergency contact, and other pertinent information. Photos of both signs for this facility are included in Figures 1 and 2 below.

Waste Water/Leachate

Water or liquid that comes in contact with solid waste, including vehicle wash-
down water, is captured and properly treated before release to the environment.
Incoming waste and recyclables are not unloaded onto the tipping area during rainfall events. Waste is not placed into ponded water. Sedimentation and erosion control activities are conducted in accordance with the
Sedimentation Control Act N.C.G.S. 113A-50, et seq., and rules promulgated
under T15A NCAC 04. Facility construction, operations, or practices are not causing or resulting in a discharge of pollution, dredged material, and/or fill material into waters of the
state in violation of the requirements under Sections 401 and 404 of the Clean
Water Act, as amended. Nuisance Control
This facility will not cause nuisance conditions. Procedures are in place to
control nuisances that may develop such as:
1. The tipping floor and transfer trailer loading area will be maintained in a clean, sanitary condition, and will be free of debris at the end of each operating day.

2. Control measures will be used to minimize and eliminate visible fugitive dust. Sprinklers that are attached to hoses are set-up along the driveway to assist in the control of fugitive dust and are used periodically throughout the day, as needed, and for only long enough to see that airborne dust is
controlled.

3. Windblown material is collected at the end of the day and on an “as-
needed” basis in windy conditions. Windblown material is not allowed to leave the facility. In order to prevent windblown debris from leaving the facility, there is a fence surrounding the property. Vegetation is allowed to grow beyond the fence to allow further windblown control that the fence alone may not catch. A silt fence surrounding the storm water
basin at the northwest corner of the facility also helps prevent windblown material from leaving the site. 4. Effective vector control measures are applied to control potential vectors including flies, rodents, insects, and other vermin (e.g., containers on-site
that hold recyclable materials are covered with appropriate tarps each day and are emptied regularly to avoid ponding water which can breed mosquitos, provide food sources and host nesting opportunities, etc.).
Unacceptable Waste
Capitol Waste Transfer Station, LLC will take necessary steps to confirm that
loads of unacceptable waste are refused before they are dumped. The facility actively employs a training and screening program for detecting and preventing unauthorized wastes from being accepted at the facility. At a minimum, the facility practices the following:

a) Conducting random inspections of a minimum of 1% of incoming loads or other comparable procedures. b) Maintaining records of inspections.

c) Training personnel to recognize hazardous, liquid, or other excluded waste types. d) Following the facility contingency plan to properly manage
identified hazardous, liquid, or other excluded or unauthorized
waste. This plan addresses identification, removal, storage, and final disposition of these wastes. In the event that an unacceptable load is dumped, the unacceptable materials
will be loaded back on the truck that dumped it and returned with the driver. If
the origin of the waste cannot be determined, the material will be isolated. Loads that are refused or returned to the hauler will be documented and documents will be maintained at the facility in the scale house. Unacceptable/Non-Hazardous Materials
If the material is non-hazardous, the workers on the yard will segregate the material into a roll-off container and contact the scale house operator to have the container emptied at an appropriate facility.

Unacceptable/Hazardous Materials If the material is suspected to be hazardous, the workers on the yard will isolate
the load from other materials on the dumping pad and contact the scale house
operator. The scale house operator will contact the facility President or the Site Manager and inform them of the suspected type of hazardous material. The President or the Site Manager will decide which company to contact for removal of the material.

Fire Control

Open burning of solid waste is prohibited at the facility. Sources of open flames are prohibited from the tipping area. Smoking is also prohibited from the tipping
area in order to prevent accidental fires from occurring. In the event of a fire at the facility, employees will notify the scale house operator by radio, cellular phone, or visiting the scale house. Employees will
attempt to contain and extinguish small fires with fire extinguishers that are
located around the site. Waste fires will be contained using a combination of water from a water hose and soil from a soil stockpile. Waste that may have been affected by fire will be segregated from the main pile in order to prevent another fire from occurring or resurgence of fire.

In the event of fires that are not easily extinguishable or fires that may be caused by or contain hazardous material, the scale house operator will notify the fire department by calling 911. The facility President or the Site Manager will also be contacted.

Locations of fire extinguishers are as follows: 1. One in the scale house. 2. One in the Komatsu track hoe.
3. Three in the shop - one in the center of the shop, one near the
south door, and one along the west wall. 4. Two on the yard – one at the northwest corner of the shop building and one near the southwest corner of the shop building near the fuel tank.
Fires, regardless of their size or severity, will be reported within 24 hours to the
NCDEQ Raleigh Regional Office at [phone]. A “Fire Occurrence Notification” form will be submitted in writing within 15 days of the occurrence of a fire.

Recordkeeping

Copies of the permit, the approved plans and records that are required to be maintained by the facility are maintained at the facility, unless otherwise approved by the NCDEQ, and made available to the NCDEQ upon request

during normal business hours.
The facility maintains a record of the amount of solid waste received at the facility, including daily records of waste received and origins of the loads. Scales are
used to weight the amount of waste received. The facility maintains a record of the amounts of waste transported from the facility for disposal, amounts of material transported from the facility for recovery and recycling, and amounts of waste or material with other final disposition, and compiled on a monthly basis. The daily records are summarized into a monthly report for use in the required
annual reports. On or before August 1 annually, the facility submits an annual facility report to the NCDEQ on a form prescribed by the NCDEQ. Requirements of the report include:
a) The reporting period is for the previous year beginning July 1 and ending June 30. b) The report lists the amount of waste received in tons and is compiled:
a. On a monthly basis b. By county c. By specific waste type d. By receiving disposal facility e. By diversion to alternation management facilities.
c) The tons of C&D waste recycled, recovered or diverted from disposal including a description of how and where the material was ultimately managed. d) Completed reports are forwarded to the Regional Environmental Senior Specialist for the facility by the due date on the prescribed
annual facility report form. e) A copy of the completed report is forwarded to each County Manager for each county from which waste was received to the facility. Documentation that a copy of the report has been forwarded to the county managers is sent to the Regional
Environmental Senior Specialist by the date due on the prescribed annual facility report form. Contingency Plans
Injuries
Employees that sustain an injury that is more severe than a minor injury will be
subject to drug and/or alcohol screening. This will be done automatically by the medical center that is treating the injured employee. The Site Manager or the President will be notified immediately of major and life-threatening injuries.
Injuries regardless of their severity must be logged using the appropriate accident
or incident form. A completed form detailing the incident is kept on-site in the scale house. Injury classifications and actions taken include:

a) Life Threatening Injury - If a severe injury occurs at the facility that can
be classified as life threatening, the Scale House Operator will notify
emergency response personnel by calling 911. b) Major Injury - If an injury occurs at the facility that is non-life threatening, but is more severe than treatment with first aid, then the
Scale House Operator will arrange for the employee to seek medical
treatment at an urgent care facility. If the injured employee is able to, they may drive themselves to the urgent care facility. If they are unable to drive themselves, then the Scale House Operator will arrange for another employee, or a member of company management,
to transport the employee for medical treatment. The nearest urgent
care treatment center is: Nextcare Urgent Care [phone]
811 US 70 Hwy
Garner, NC 27529 c) Minor Injury – minor injuries can be treated with the first-aid kit at the facility. Locations of first-aid kits include:

1. Scale house (large kit) 2. Supply closet in the shop (small kit)

Equipment Breakdowns
A mechanic will be sent to diagnose and repair equipment breakdowns
immediately in an effort to minimize down time in the operating environment. The mechanic will present an initial diagnosis to the Site Manager or President as soon as possible. If the breakdown is expected to last longer that one operating day, the Site Manager or the President will make arrangements to
have a back-up piece of equipment brought to the facility.
Spills
Site personnel will notify the President or the Site Manager of spills that occur
on the facility. Spills may include: a) Minor Spills - Any minor spill (< 5 gallons) of fuel or oil that occurs during the course or normal equipment operations or routine maintenance will be immediately cleaned up using the spill cleanup kit located in the
warehouse. Contaminated material will be removed and disposed of at an approved facility. b) Major Spills - In the event of a major spill (>5 gallons) the employees will try to minimize the area of the spill using tools available including heavy equipment, shovels and absorbent materials to block the flow of the
spilled material. The scale house operator will contact an environmental clean-up company to remove the spilled materials. Major spills (> 5 gallons) will be reported to the NCDEQ regional office at (919)

791-4200 within 24 hours. Spills and associated response activities will be
recorded on the Spill Documentation Form located in Appendix C of the Storm
Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). A copy of this form will be submitted, along with a written report of the incident, to the NCDEQ. A copy of this form and the written report will be kept on-site in the scale house with the facility records. A copy of the SWPPP is located in the scale house at the facility.
