Document Description
The proposed project includes amendments to operations at an existing large-scale composting facility. The project proponent is requesting amendments to the existing CUP (originally approved in 1993) to allow the following operational refinements at the existing facility: 1) Modify the existing CUP to authorize/acknowledge the following incoming material categories: (a) Digestates; (b) Gypsum Wallboard; (c) Food Material (including residential) and Green Material, mixed together; (d) Amendments/Additives (part of 1993 approval but not previously listed as a category); (e) Lamont PUD Biosolids (part of 1993 approval but not previously listed as a category); 2) Add the processing of gypsum wallboard and the use of a "Pseudo Bio-filter" to the project description; 3) Modify the project description of the existing CUP to more specifically define the contents of permitted composting feedstock categories in order to ensure clarity and consistency with CalRecycle's Title 14 requirements. Definitions used in the project description will conform to the definitions in Title 14 Section 17225 and Title 14 Section 17852; 4) Add air pollution control measures as required by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District permits, rules, and regulations and as requested by the applicant.
