Any structures proposed to be demolished and/or <br /> rehabilitated as part of this project should be evaluated for lead, asbestos or other contaminants <br /> which must be managed appropriately. Also, the closed Orange County Construction and Demolition <br /> Landfill (6801-CDLF-1993) is located within one mile of the proposed project. Additional information <br /> about this facility can be found here: 6801-CDLF-1993. Otherwise, the review has been completed <br /> and has found no adverse impact on the surrounding community and likewise knows of no situations <br /> in the community, which would affect this project from a non-hazardous solid waste perspective. <br /> During the project, every feasible effort should be made to minimize the generation of waste, to <br /> recycle materials for which viable markets exist, and to use recycled products and materials in the <br /> development of this project where suitable. Any waste generated by this project that cannot be <br /> beneficially reused or recycled must be disposed of at a solid waste management facility approved to <br /> manage the respective waste type. The Section strongly recommends that any contractors are <br /> required to provide proof of proper disposal for all waste generated as part of the project. A list of <br /> permitted solid waste management facilities is available on the Solid Waste Section portal site at: <br /> Solid Waste Facility List. <br /> Please contact Chuck Kirchner, Environmental Senior Specialist,for any questions regarding solid <br /> waste management for this project.
