(c) salvaging activities shall be conducted
				  in a planned and controlled manner and not interfere with other aspects of site
				  operation. Activities shall be conducted so as not to interfere with
				  expeditious entry and exit of vehicles delivering waste to the in-vessel
				  digestion operation or facility. Salvaging activities conducted at an in-vessel
				  digestion operation or facility shall be confined to specified, clearly
				  identified areas of the in-vessel digestion operation or facility, and
				  controlled to prevent health, safety or nuisance problems;

				  salvaged on-site shall be stored away from other activity areas in specified,
				  clearly identifiable areas as noted in the In-vessel Digestion Facility Plan or
				  In-vessel Digestion Report. They shall be arranged to minimize risk of fire,
				  health and safety hazard, vector harborage, or other hazard or nuisance, and

				  point where the compost is removed from the site or beneficially used on site.
				  Test results of samples must be received by the operator prior to removing
				  compost from the in-vessel digestion facility where it was produced.
(b) Sampling shall be performed by taking and
				  analyzing at least one composite sample, following the requirements of this
				  section as follows:
(1) An operator shall take
				  and analyze one composite sample for every 5,000 cubic-yards of compost
				  produced. If the in-vessel digestion facility produces less than 5,000
				  cubic-yards of compost in a 12 month period, the operator shall analyze at
				  least one composite sample every 12 month period.
(2) Composite sample analysis for maximum

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) Compost produced at an in-vessel
				  digestion facility (pursuant to section
				  17896.57(a)(2))
				  shall not exceed the maximum acceptable pathogen concentrations described in
				  subdivision (b)(1) of this section. Compost that contains any pathogens in
				  amounts that exceed these pathogen reduction requirements shall be designated
				  for additional processing, disposal, or other use as approved by local, state
				  and federal agencies having appropriate jurisdiction. Test results of samples
				  must be received by the operator prior to removing compost from the in-vessel
				  digestion facility where it was produced.
(b) Operators of in-vessel digestion
				  facilities that produce compost shall ensure that:
(1) The density of fecal coliform in compost
				  produced at an in-vessel digestion facility shall be less than 1,000 Most
				  Probable Number per gram of total solids (dry weight basis), and the density of
				  Salmonella sp. bacteria in this compost shall be less than three (3) Most
				  Probable Number per four (4) grams of total solids (dry weight basis). Test
				  results of samples must be received by the operator prior to removing product
				  from the site.
(2) At in-vessel
				  digestion facilities using an enclosed or within-vessel composting process,
				  active compost shall be maintained at a temperature of 55 degrees Celsius (131
				  degrees Fahrenheit) or higher for a pathogen reduction period of 3 days.
(A) Due to variations among enclosed and
				  within-vessel composting system designs, including tunnels, the operator shall
				  submit a system-specific temperature monitoring plan with the permit
				  application to meet the requirements of subdivision (b)(2) of this
				  section.
(3) If the
				  facility uses a windrow composting process, active compost shall be maintained
				  under aerobic conditions at a temperature of 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees
				  Fahrenheit) or higher for a pathogen reduction period of 15 days or longer.
				  During the period when the compost is maintained at 55 degrees Celsius or
				  higher, there shall be a minimum of five (5) turnings of the windrow.
(4) If the facility uses an aerated static
				  pile composting process, all active compost shall be covered with 6 to 12
				  inches of insulating material, and the active compost shall be maintained at a
				  temperature of 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees Fahrenheit) or higher for a
				  pathogen reduction period of 3 days.
California Code of Regulations › Title 14 - Natural Resources › Division 7 - Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery › Chapter 3.2 - In-Vessel Digestion Operations and Facilities Regulatory Requirements › Article 6 - Digestate Handling Standards › Section 17896.61 - Physical Contamination Limits

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
This section shall become operative January 1, 2018.
(a) Compost produced at an in-vessel
				  digestion facility (pursuant to section
				  17896.57(a)(2))
				  shall not contain more than 0.5% by dry weight of physical contaminants greater
				  than 4 millimeters; no more than 20% by dry weight of this 0.5% shall be film
				  plastic greater than 4 millimeters. Compost that contains physical contaminants
				  in excess of either one or both of these limits shall be designated for
				  additional processing, disposal, or other use as approved by local, state and
				  federal agencies having appropriate jurisdiction. Verification of physical
				  contamination limits shall occur prior to the point where compost is removed
				  from the site or beneficially used on-site. Test results of samples must be
				  received by the operator prior to removing compost from the in-vessel digestion
				  facility where it was produced.
(b)
				  The operator of an in-vessel digestion facility with an on-site aerobic compost
				  process shall sample every 5,000 cubic-yards of compost produced and determine
				  the percentage of physical contaminants greater than 4 millimeters in the
				  sample using a method that provides accurate results and has been approved by
				  the EA. If the in-vessel digestion facility produces less than 5,000
				  cubic-yards of compost in a 12 month period, the operator shall analyze at
				  least one composite sample of compost produced every 12 month period.
(c) If the EA has reason to believe, based on
				  the EA's visual observation or otherwise, that a determination of percent
				  physical contaminants made pursuant to section
				  17896.61(b) is
				  not accurate, the EA may require an operator of an in-vessel digestion facility
				  to take a composite sample of compost in the presence of the EA and send the
				  sample to a laboratory at which physical contaminants greater than 4
				  millimeters shall be collected and weighed to determine the percentage of
				  physical contaminants by dry weight using the following protocol:
(1) Determine the total dry weight of the
				  composite sample as obtained in section
				  17896.61(d);
(2) Separate the physical contaminants
				  greater than 4 millimeters from the composite sample and determine the dry
				  weight of the physical contaminants;
(3) Determine the percentage of physical
				  contaminants by dividing the dry weight of the physical contaminants by the
				  total dry weight of the composite sample.
