Descriptions of how each wastestream is processed at the <br /> SAMRF follow. The first Exhibit is a concept site plan for the <br /> proposed facility which illustrates the processing locations described <br /> below. And following that is an artist's conceptual illustration of the <br /> proposed SAMRF. <br /> Residential Waste (Single Family Homes) <br /> The SAMRF will provide the City with an alternative to the <br /> implementation of a residential curbside recycling program. <br /> A series of processing lines incorporating a combination of <br /> mechanical and manual material recovery processes will be <br /> utilized to recover recyclable materials, such as cans, bottles, <br /> newspaper, mixed paper and yard waste from loads of mixed <br /> residential waste. <br /> Residential waste picked up at the curb by Great Western <br /> Reclamation collection trucks will be delivered to the facility <br /> through the east gate. Each collection truck will proceed to <br /> a weigh-in area consisting of two 70 ft. computerized scales. <br /> The scales are setback 190 ft. into the site from the gate <br /> which will allow 21 collection trucks to queue in three lanes on <br /> the property. Trucks will weigh-in on either scale. The tare <br /> weights of vehicles that frequently use the facility will be <br /> stored in the computer so that the net weight of these in- <br /> coming loads can be calculated at the time of weigh-in. As a <br /> result, these vehicles will not be required to weigh-out. Two <br /> additional scales will be provided near the exit of the facility at <br /> the north end of the site for all other vehicles to weigh-out. <br /> Signs in English and Spanish at the gate and scalehouse will <br /> specify that all loads must be covered and that no hazardous, <br /> liquid, infectious or other special waste will be allowed. <br /> 45 <br />
