RE: Notice of Erie Planning&Zoning Commission Public Hearing for Sanifill of Colorado,
Inc., regarding Their Proposed "Special Waste Acceptance and Review Program" -
Thursday, November 7, 7:00 P.M, Erie Town Hall, 645 Holbrook Street.
Gentlemen:
Please be advised that the Erie Planning&Zoning Commission has set a public hearing to consider the
proposed "Special Waste Acceptance and Review Program" for Sanifill of Colorado's Front Range
Landfill at 1830 Weld County Road No. 5. This is the first of two public hearings that the Town will
hold on this topic. The Board of Trustees will hold the second public hearing later and will consider the
recommendations to be made by the Planning &Zoning Commission. You will receive a notice of the
Board of Trustees hearing when it is set.
Overall, the "Special Waste Acceptance and Review Program" is a self-monitoring system of classifying
"special waste streams" to be accepted by the landfill. "Special waste" is defined by the State regulations
as ". . . solid waste that may require chemical analysis before acceptance or which may require, special
handling or disposal procedures. Special wastes include, but are not limited to: asbestos, bulk tires or
other bulk materials, biomedical waste, sludges and contaminated soil." '
"Special waste" in the "Special Waste Acceptance and Review Program" proposed by Sanifill is defined as
" . . . any semi-solid or solid material and associated containers generated as a direct result of an
industrial, commercial, manufacturing or processing operation; chemically or petroleum contaminated
soil or material as specified in Table 14; any waste water treatment residue; any waste classified as a
"special" or regulated as such by Colorado or other regulatory agency; incinerator and fly ash;
agricultural byproduct waste, non-friable asbestos, auto fluff and shredder waste or any waste generated

The current"Landfill Design, Operation and Closure Plan" for Sanifill allows the disposal of"non-
hazardous and non-radioactive household, industrial and commercial solid waste approved by the
Colorado Department of Health and the Weld County Health Department."'Also, the Plan restricted
several types of waste. "No wastes classified as containing asbestos will be accepted at the site. Fuel
contaminated soils or soils containing other known industrial contaminates will not be accepted at the
site." s The Ranch Eggs Neighborhood Agreement prohibits the acceptance of"infectious, autoclaved,
hazardous or liquid waste.i6 "Incinerator and fly ash" disposal were not mentioned in the original
certification documents for the landfill. However, State regulations require the landfill to be "approved
and designated' to take solid waste incinerator ash on a continuous basis.'The Town will decide the
effect of the "Special Waste Acceptance and Review Program" on these restricted substances as a part of
this hearing.
We are sending you this notice as an adjacent property owner, or as a referral agency of the Town.
Copies of the application and supporting material for this request are on file and available for public
inspection in the Community Development Office, at the Erie Town Hall, 645 Holbrook, Erie, Colorado
80516. The public's comments are welcome during the public hearings. You may send written
comments to the Erie Town Hall, Box 100, Erie, CO 80516.

1.0 PROGRAM OVERVIEW
•
The Sanifill Special Waste Authorization and Review Program (S WARP) has been developed to insure
that company owned facilities are accepting non-hazardous special waste streams under the most
stringent conditions to allow such facilities to provide the highest quality of environmental management.
Any modifications to this program must be coordinated with and approved by the Vice President of
Environmental/ Engineering.
This program specifies standard protocols and document forms to accomplish the following:
a) Profile special waste streams to be managed at the facility.
b) Provide an avenue for submission of special waste stream applications to the Region/District for
authorization prior to acceptance.
c) Effect a proper review of each waste stream application by qualified personnel.
d) Provide a mechanism for an orderly submission of special waste applications to state and local
regulatory agencies for approval.
e) Assign and issue a specific identifying waste authorization code for tracking of paperwork.
0 Provide on-site waste verification and record keeping for each waste stream.
g) Complete an annual environmental audit of special waste procedures and documentation.
All wastes defined as "special" that fall under this program shall not be accepted for treatment, storage
or disposal without first completing the entire approval process as defined herein and being authorized
by and further assigned an authorization code by a Sanifill employee known as the Special Waste
Coordinator.

serve as the basis for any directives concerning training of personnel or
modifications in the program.
• REM will either directly provide the training of the Special Waste Coordinator and
other Region/District staff working within the program or will identify other
personnel within or outside the Company or professional courses that can be
employed to properly trained personnel. The REM will review on an annual bas'2.
the knowledge and capabilities of personnel working within the SWARP at the
Region/District level and will coordinate such activities with the Vice President of
Environmental/Engineering.
• The Site Manager will provide regular training of site personnel involved either
directly or indirectly in the SWARP. Such training will be done at regularly
scheduled sessions on safety and will be coordinated with the REM and properly
documented as to content and personnel. Such training will address the general
requirements of the program, responsibilities of individual personnel, and any
specific directives concerning individual special wastestreams.
Revision 1 Page 3
5.0 INTEGRATION WITH COLLECTION OPERATIONS
Sales personnel representing Sanifill collection operations will be familiar with the SWARD and
will coordinate their special waste activities with the designated Special Waste Coordinator and
REM in their area.
6.0 PERSONNEL AND DOCUMENTS
6.1 Personnel
• Site Manager - individual responsible for site operation and the one who will
ultimately take possession of the special waste stream.
• Operator - employee at the site who is charged with performing duties at the active
face of the landfill.
• Region Engineering Manager (REM) - engineering manager or his designee from
the applicable Region or District who is charged with providing engineering_ and
environmental services for the landfill site in question.
• Sales Consultant - individual from Sanifill who is working with the special waste
generator to develop an agreement to bring the special waste stream to a Sanifill
site.
• Special Waste Coordinator - technical person at the Region or District who reviews
and approves applications for special waste streams to be potentially disposed of at
Sanifill sites in the Region or District or who delegates that authority to qualified
personnel at the Region, District or site. Special Waste Coordinators, the Region
Engineers and site personnel with approval responsibility comprise the Special
Waste Section within that Region or District. •
• Vice President of EnvironmentaUEngineering - Corporate officer responsible for the
engineering/environmental program at Sanifill.
6.2 Waste Profiling Documents
All special waste streams must be profiled using one of the following three forms. The
form must be appropriate for the waste stream and must be completely and accurately
filled out to be acceptable for review and processing.
Revision I Page 4
6.2.1 Sanifill Waste Profile Document
This document is utilized to profile most special and industrial waste streams
including those which contain asbestos (friable and non-friable); chemical or
petroleum contaminated soils from spill incidents, incinerator ash, liquid wastes
and wastewater treatment sludges (industrial or municipal).
6.2.2 Petroleum Substance Contamination from a Regulated Storage Tank Profile Sheet
This document is to be utilized only to profile soils and contaminated materials
that are generated in connection with a petroleum substance release from a
regulated aboveground (AST) or underground storage tank (UST).
6.2.3 Non-hazardous Oil-field Waste (NOW) Characterization Sheet
This document is to be utilized to profile a waste generated from activities related
solely to the exploration, development or production of crude oil, natural gas or
geothermal energy.
Examples of each profiling document are provided in Appendix A.
Additional waste or industry specific profile sheets may be developed and utilized upon approval
of the Vice President of Environmental/Engineering.
7.0 PROFILING OF WASTE STREAMS
7.1 Coordination with Waste Generator
It is required that prior to accepting any special waste, specific profile forms (in addition
to any state or local forms) are to be completed and signed by the generator(customer or
authorized representative') of special or industrial wastes to provide information such as
the source of the waste, its physical properties, composition, volume and its chemical
components. In completing this form, the generator provides information concerning the
RCRA characteristics of the waste and confirms that the waste is not a hazardous waste
per RCRA, state or local regulations. It is the responsibility of the waste generator and
the Sales Consultant to determine the specific needs concerning the candidate waste
stream and to provide the information on the appropriate forms.
The authorized represenative may be a consultant employed by the Owner provided that the Owner has authorized the
Consultant to act on his behalf.
Revision 1 Page 5
7.2 Completion of Profile Sheets
Prior to the acceptance of any waste covered by this program at the facility, the waste
must be profiled. The Sanifill Sales Consultant is responsible for coordinating with an
authorized representative of the waste generator to complete the appropriate profile
sheets. The appropriate forms should be filled out completely and additional data
provided when necessary. All questions concerning the profiling process should be
directed to the Special Waste Coordinator or the REM.
7.3 Required Minimum Analyses
The analyses or information required on each individual waste stream will vary.
However, at a minimum the analytical parameters necessary to perform a hazardous
waste determination will be required for most special wastes except asbestos containing
materials. Analyses include:
TCLP Metals and Organics
Corrosivity (pH)
Flashpoint
Reactivity
In some cases determination of toxicity by use of additional analyses such as total metals,
chloride concentration, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons, etc., may also be required.
Additional testing will be at the discretion of the Special Waste Coordinator.
7.4 Validity and Age of Data Utilized
Analytical data, submitted by a Generator during the profiling process must be from a
State certified or EPA approved laboratory. Unless approved by the REM, data reports,
submitted must be no older than one (1) year. Originals or clean, legible photostatic
•
copies may be accepted.
7.5 Use of Process Knowledge
The use of process knowledge may be utilized to modify or reduce the required spectrum
of analytical testing for a given waste stream, subject to review by the Vice President of
EnvironmentaUEngineering. Use of process knowledge is at the discretion of the Special
Waste Coordinator.
Revision 1 Page 6
8.0 WASTE APPROVAL PROCESS
8.1 Sanifill Waste Authorization Code
An authorization code will be assigned to all approved waste streams by the Special
Waste Coordinator or delegated personnel working in concert with the Special Waste
Coordinator.
Waste Authorization Code format is a three (3) part numerical code designating:
a) The facility or facilities at which the waste is to be managed.
b) The month and year the waste authorization was issued.
c) The special waste section's identification number.
EXAMPLE: 512/892/12345
This waste stream was authorized for the Hardy Development facility (site 512) in
August of 1992 and was logged in and assigned authorization number 12345 by the
Special Waste Coordinator.
In some cases a waste stream may be authorized for receipt at more than one facility. In
this case, the additional site(s) identifying code will be indicated as in the following
example.
EXAMPLE: 512 (444)/892/12345
This waste is authorized for the Hardy Development facility as well as the B&D
(site 444). Authorization was granted in August of 1992 and assigned authorization
number 12345 by the Special Waste Section.
8.2 Approval Authority
The REM for a given Region or District working under the authority of the Region Vice
President will survey each operating site for their special waste streams and the
capabilities of key site personnel. Region/District technical personnel (Special Waste
Coordinator and/or REM) will serve as a technical resource for the designated site
personnel when non-typical special wastes or high concentrations above specified limits
are encountered. These special waste personnel at the Region/District will also do the
special waste approvals for sites without key personnel capable of performing special
waste approvals on site. The REM will monitor the activities of all personnel authorized
to give special waste approvals and is ultimately responsible for the special waste
approval process in the Region/District.
Revision 1 Page 7
8.3 Approval Timeframe
If profiling information submitted is complete, Sanifill maintains a company policy to
approve the request within three (3) working days.
8.4 Submission for Approval
The Sanifill Sales Consultant will obtain the completed, signed profile sheet and all
corresponding backup data from the authorized representative of the generator. The
Sanifill Sales Consultant will submit this information along with a Waste Authorization
Request Form (see Appendix B) to the appropriate special waste personnel (designated
site personnel, Special Waste Coordinator or REM) for review and approval. The
expected schedule for the review and approval process should be determined at that time.
8.5 Request for Additional Information
In some cases, the information submitted for evaluation may not be extensive enough for
the Special Waste Section to make a proper determination for authorization. A written
request for additional information will be sent to the initiating Sanifill Sales Consultant.
The information request will identify the waste generator, specific waste stream and list
the suggested information needed to finish evaluating the waste authorization request.
8.6 Review and Approval
The individual authorized to review and determine approval status for a special waste
application should initially determine if the application is complete and that all data and
information are consistent and reasonable. Requests for clarification or additional
information can be initiated verbally but should be documented as defined under Section
8.5. The actual review and approval process should not proceed until the application and
supporting database are complete. Approval criteria should be consistent with the Special
Waste Approval Guide established for the site. All other applications or special cases
should be brought to the attention of the REM or designated Special Waste Coordinator
for review and final determination of approval status. In no case should approvals be
given insufficient data or without involvement from personnel with the appropriate
authority. It is Sanifill's policy to either deny an application or request additional
information if the specific application or waste stream is not properly or completely
defined. Whether an application is approved or denied, it is the responsibility of the
person processing that application to complete all required documentation and distribute
that documentation to all necessary persons and files.
Revision I Page 8
8.7 Denial of Request
The reason(s) for denial will be communicated to the Sales Consultant initiating the
request. Waste streams for which no waste authorization code is issued by the Special
Waste Representative may not be received at any company facility for treatment, storage
or disposal.
8.8 Duration of Authorization
The duration of a waste authorization varies on a case-by-case basis. Durations may be
one time, quarterly, semi-annual, or at the maximum, for a one (1) year period. Waste
authorizations become invalid one (1)year after issuance and will need to be renewed
prior to that time. The person issuing the approval should document the approval
duration and communicate that information to the Sanifill Sales Consultant.
8.9 Renewal of Authorization
Each approved waste stream entering the facility must be reviewed and authorized for
further acceptance on an annual basis. A new profile sheet will be required and new
analyses performed. Unless the generator indicates a change in any process of
generation, or the original test data is greater than three (3) years of age, no additional
analysis other than what was originally performed will be required.
9.0 ACCEPTANCE AT FACILITY
9.1 Verification Upon Arrival
9.1.1 Load Ticket
The load ticket will be checked for completeness and accuracy by the Site
Manager or designated personnel before the load is admitted to the site.
9.1.2 Load Verification
Upon arrival at the facility, each load of waste shall be checked for conformity
with the characterization information submitted in the application.
9.2 Sampling of Load
It is not Sanifill's intention to sample each and every load of waste entering the
site. Sampling will be performed on a random basis. For multiple loads of a
specific waste, the Special Waste Coordinator or designated representative will
designate on the Waste Authorization Request Form an appropriate sampling
frequency.
Revision 1 Page 9
9.2.1 Sample Development
For loads arriving by dump type vehicles, a sample will be obtained by obtaining
a composite of several grab samples taken via a shovel, scoop or similar device.
Samples should be taken throughout the load.
9.2.2 Sample Identification
After the Sanifill representative has obtained a representative sample from an
incoming load of waste, the sample will be properly labeled so as to identify:
Generator, Service Location, Description of Waste, Transporter, Manifest
Number, Special Waste Authorization Number, Date and time taken.
9.2.3 Alternative Programs
A Site Manager can propose an alternative sampling/verification program for his
site subject to review and approval by the Vice President of
Environmental/Engineering and the REM.
9.3 Random Testing of Samples Taken
Each sample taken will be subjected to several "indicator" parameters. The results
obtained will be compared to data submitted during the original profiling of the waste. If
information varies significantly from what was originally submitted, the load will be held
and the generator will be notified of the variance. Failure to resolve any such variances
will result in the load being rejected.
The analytical parameters and waste evaluation methods that will be performed will be
specified by the Special Waste Coordinator or designated representative on the Waste
Authorization Request Form. Typical test and test methods are provided below:
9.3.1 Visual
The sample taken will be observed for color, odor, consistency, etc.
9.3.2 pH
The pH of solid waste materials will be determined by creating an approximate
1:1 slurry of the waste with de-ionized water and then testing the slurry with a
standard pH meter. Performing pH readings on solidified wastes are exempt
from this requirement provided documentation is given by the generator that the
waste is non-hazardous.
Revision 1 Page 10
9.3.3 Reactivity (Water/Air)
A sample of waste will be exposed to air and de-ionized water and any reactions
noted. If a material reacts vigorously with air or water as evidenced by heat
formation in excess of 140°F or excessive gas generation, the material will be
identified as air or water reactive and will not be accepted.
9.3.4 Gas Evolution with pH Change
A sample of waste will be exposed to acidic and/or alkaline conditions to
determine if there is evolution of hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen sulfide or
ammonia. If a sample generates any gas, the sample will be subjected to the
condition in which gas was observed and identification and measurement of such
gas will be made with Draeger Apparatus with appropriate sampling tubes.
9.3.5 Ignition Potential
A sample of waste will be tested for the characteristic of ignition (flashpoint).
Liquid samples will be tested with a closed cup flashpoint tester. Solids will be
tested by first creating a spark over the waste with an appropriate device and then
placing a lit match over the specimen. Wastes that exhibit a positive test for
ignition as determined by such procedures will be deemed ignitable and not
accepted.
9.3.6 Free Liquids
The free liquid content of the waste will be determined by the "Paint Filter
Test"(EPA Method 9095). Wastes which fail the test will be rejected.
9.4 Recording and Distribution of Data-All tested loads will be logged in on the Special '
Waste On-Site Fingerprinting Worksheet as presented in Appendix E. The data sheets
will be retained on-site for a period of one (1) year. Copies of the data sheets will be
submitted to the REM on a monthly basis.
10.0 WASTE DISCREPANCIES
The entire documentation/characterization process must be complete and error-free for a special waste
load to be accepted at the site.
10.1 Non-Conforming Conditions
The following non-conforming conditions will result in refusal of the load.
Revision 1 Page 11
10.1.1 Non-Conforming Paperwork
The paperwork is incomplete, inaccurate, out of date, or does not fully
characterize the waste load. Appropriate corrections or additions must be made
before the waste load is accepted.
10.1.2 Non-Conforming Waste Load
The waste load appearance or packaging is inconsistent with the manifest or the
general appearance is different from previous experience with the particular
special waste.
10.1.3 Failure of On-Site Testing
Loads for which the on-site laboratory testing indicates a potential hazard will be
immediately refused at the facility. The REM or designate will be immediately
notified and consulted on how to further handle the matter.
10.2 Rejection of Waste Load-the load will be rejected and the Site Manager will inform the
Generator by telephone and in writing as to the reason for rejection. Copies of all
transmittals will be on file at the site and sent to the REM. A Load Rejection Report
(Appendix F) will be completed for each rejected load.
11.0 RECORDS
The creation and maintenance of complete records of all special waste transactions including approvals,
denials and all tests and manifests is an important component of the Special Waste Program.
11.1 Responsibility
The District Manager is responsible for the complete special waste records system in the
Region/District. Distribution of application packages, approval and denial
documentation, manifests and test results should be coordinated with the Site Manager,
Sales Consultant and Special Waste Coordinator. The REM, or Special Waste
Coordinator, should audit the condition of all special waste filing systems at least twice
per year.
11.2 On-Site Records
The Site Manager should maintain a complete set of files set up by customer and a roster
of authorization codes at the site office. Filing and updating should be done at least
weekly.
Revision 1 Page 12
11.3 Region Records
The REM or Special Waste Coordinator should maintain parallel records for each site in
the Region/District. The filing systems should be duplicates to those maintained at the
individual sites.
12.0 PROGRAM REVIEW AND AUDITING
The Special Waste Program as implemented at each operating site and as managed at the Region/District
will be subject to reviews and audits at the Region/District and Corporate level.
12.1 Region/District Review
•
The REM or Special Waste Coordinator will review all new applications for special
waste acceptance,test results and manifests on a monthly basis. The overall program
including on-site approvals, management of information, operations, and health and
safety procedures will be reviewed quarterly. Operations plans will be checked twice per
year.
12.2 Corporate Audit
Corporate Engineering will perform an annual environmental audit of each operating site.
As part of the audit the Special Waste Program at the site will be addressed. The process
will include interview of personnel, observation of special waste operational activities
and file reviews. In addition, annual reviews of the Region/District office will cover
Special Waste activities such as training of site personnel, review of site information,data
and technical management, and health and safety issues. Adherence with Company
policies and consistency in program implementation will be the primary audit concerns:
13.0 PROGRAM VARIANCES
Variances to this program, in whole or in part, may be granted to any facility. Variances may only be
granted by the Vice President of Environmental/Engineering after justification for the variance(s) has
been submitted from the requesting facility. Any variances must be approved by the City of Erie and the
Colorado Department of Health.
