r Geosyntec Consultants • Comply with the financial assurance requirements for closure and long term post- closure care (typically for five years); and • Inspect incoming C&D debris loads to identify and exclude prohibited items from being disposed into the facility. Some types of C&D debris are considered clean debris and are not regulated under Chapter 62- 701 , FAC. r 3.2 Typical C&D Debris Management in Florida C&D debris is most commonly managed via one of two mechanisms. The first is disposal in a landfill . Several different types of landfills may be permitted to operate in Florida. C&D debris generators and waste haulers have the option of disposing of C&D debris in : (i) lined Class I landfills (those typically used for household and commercial MSW) ; (ii) lined or unlined Class III landfills (typically used for C&D debris and yard trash); and/or unlined C&D debris disposal facilities . The FDEP is currently proposing changes to the solid waste regulations (Chapter 62-701 , FAC) which will include the requirement for all Class III landfills to be lined. Also, the current and proposed regulations require the owner or operator of a proposed C&D disposal facility to demonstrate the need not to line the facility during the _ permitting process. A second option for management of C&D debris is processing at a materials recovery facility (MRF) . A number of MRFs in Florida are permitted to accept C&D debris, process it to recover saleable commodities or recyclable components, and then haul the non-recoverable material for disposal in an appropriate landfill . The layout of these facilities varies depending on operator, location, and objectives of the facility. Typical operations include separation of large or easily recoverable items up front, screening to remove soil, and separation using a i combination of manual labor and mechanical equipment. The major commodities recovered include wood, concrete, metal, aluminum cans, paper, cardboard , and soil . r 3.3 C&D Debris Management in Indian River County The SWDD Board approach to the management of C&D debris is to encourage recovery, +� recycling and reuse in order to minimize the quantities of material requiring landfill disposal . Mixed C&D debris loads delivered for landfill disposal are charged a disposal fee of $31 . 80 per ton by the SWDD. Generators of C&D debris can reduce their cost by separating recyclables ` such as scrap metal and cardboard from mixed loads and delivering them to the designated recycling area at the County landfill site, free of charge. In addition, generators can also deliver clean concrete and/ or clean soil to the landfill site at a reduced fee of $ 3 . 00 per ton. FL0996-03"JL70184 08-10-2007.doc.doc 3-2 2007-08- 10 r — r
