How We Will Measure the Superior Environmental Performance Sample Clauses

How We Will Measure the Superior Environmental Performance. Superior Environmental Performance (SEP) will be measured using the baseline (Tier 1, without Project XL) against the actual results of the project (Tier 2, proposed Project XL). To determine specific bioreactor performance attributes, monitoring parameters are listed in Tables 2 and 3. SEP will be measured in the following areas: amount and concentration of leachate disposed to the local POTW and amount of landfill settlement. Due to the anticipated increase in LFG generation, NOx and CO emissions from the candlestick flare will increase; this disadvantage, however, will be more than offset by the reduction in VOC emissions. The design capacity of the Facility's Subtitle D landfill exceeds the NSPS thresholds and thus the facility must comply with 40 CFR Subpart WWW. As noted above, MDE, Air and Radiation Management Administration has approved an Alternate Operating System (AOS) for all of Cell 8 which permits an alternative form of LFG collection, and which postpones quarterly monitoring. Therefore, any gas collection while the AOS is effective will prevent degradation of air quality . On July 18, 2000, the County submitted Addendum #1 to the AOS to MDE which would require the use of passive flares for this project. Tests will be conducted to compare emission performance of the bioreactors to the conventional landfilling. NSPS emission guideline method (section 60.755 (c) 3) will be used to measure surface emission. Monitoring of system performance will include quarterly surface methane emissions testing to track and confirm the collection effectiveness of the system. Because bioreactors generate more landfill gas earlier in the lifespan of the facility compared to standard MSW landfills, it will be necessary for gas collection and monitoring to be required prior to the time frame set out in subpart WWW, which does not contemplate bioreactor scenarios. Monitoring will continue for the duration of the project. It is well documented in the literature and from operating leachate recirculation/gas recovery landfills that accelerated gas generation will occur in these types of landfills. The passive flare or gas recovery system for the project will be designed to account for this expected condition. Measurment of additional waste disposal airspace through settlement will be based on annual aerial topographical surveys. Total volume loss occurring within this time interval will be calculated. The County will measure leachate quality over time to examine change...

The Authority shall promptly notify the Contractor of any health and safety hazards which may exist or arise at the Authority’s Premises and which may affect the Contractor in the performance of the Contract.

  • Safety Where an employee is prevented from working at the employee’s particular function as a result of unsafe conditions caused by the inclement weather, the employee may be transferred to other work in the employee’s classification on site, until the unsafe conditions are rectified. Where such alternative is not available and until the unsafe conditions are rectified, the employee shall remain on site. The employee shall be paid for such time without reduction of the employees’ inclement weather entitlement.
