Document Description
As part of the proposed project, OCWR will implement various operational modifications to the Capistrano Greenery Composting Operation to improve compliance with SB 1383 and AB 1594. These changes include increasing the maximum daily tonnage received at the facility from 204 TPD up to 536 TPD of incoming feedstock including food waste and manure (note that due to the increase in daily tonnage, a proportional increase in acceptance of manure, which is already permitted, will also occur); use of additional feedstock materials (food waste); expansion of the facility by approximately 6.2 acres to a total maximum of 24.8 acres to incorporate the existing facility side slopes in the permitted facility footprint; permit chipping and grinding activities on site; utilization of new composting technologies and processing methods to streamline the process, reduce processing times, increase throughput, and reduce environmental impacts; add stand-alone solar to power new composting technologies; and allow for compost give away events.
