This all LEA e-mail was sent on
behalf of the LEA Support Services Branch of the California Integrated Waste
Management Board (CIWMB) and Howard Levenson, Deputy Director Permitting and
Enforcement Division.
Board Meeting: January 14, 2004
No Permitting and Enforcement
(P&E) Committee Meeting in January.
Summary of the Board Meeting:
- The Board concurred in three
full solid waste facility permits.
- The Board recommended
$700,000 for the clean-up of the Pryshepa Disposal Site in Siskiyou Co. under
the Solid Waste Disposal and Codisposal Site Cleanup Program (AB 2136 Program).
- The State Audit Report
resulting from the Crippen fire was presented to the Board by the Auditors. The
Board directed staff to rescind Advisory 12 on non-traditional sites,
provide the Board with a list of activities that have been excluded as
part of various rulemaking packages and discuss the audit recommendation
regarding tracking of excluded sites with LEAs, and continue discussion of
changing the law that allows the staying an enforcement order on appeal.
- The Board heard a discussion
of the possible application of 14 new requirements adopted in the construction,
demolition and inert debris (CDI) processing regulations to the regulation of other
solid waste. The Board agreed with staff's suggestions that: a) 6 requirements
be left as they are in the CDI regulations; source/separated, 1% putrescible,
origin of construction and demolition-like, expanded definition of processing, and
limitation on
residuals (the requirement for mandatory OSHA training was deleted by the
Office of Administrative Law); b)
staff conduct further analysis of the injury and illness prevention program/plan requirement,
scales requirement, and
quantities for tier thresholds; c) include the fire prevention plan requirement in rulemaking discussions d) staff initiate rulemaking actions to add the "three
strikes" requirement to other solid waste regulatory packages and two
requirements, public hearings and surprise random inspections, to general solid
waste requirements, not just for CDI processing.
- The next Board meeting will be on February 18, 2004 in Sacramento.
- The Board meetings are being audio
broadcast and are available from almost any personal computer with
Internet access.
