Once the material to be removed is identified,large rubber tired front end loaders will be brought in to scrape and pile the soil for loading onto dump trucks or trailers. Once the material has been loaded,it will be transported to either a final disposal site(if deemed to be too contaminated for reclamation)or to a temporary staging facility for screening and repurposing. Prior to commencing screening operations specialized rakes and/or shaker screens may be used to screen the larger foreign debris objects and set them aside for direct hauling to the final disposal site. After the sand has been sifted/screened,the clean material will be returned to a previously designated location for reuse. For documentation purposes,both the quantity of sand,soil or mud hauled to the centralized site,and the screened debris must be accounted for. MAJOR DEBRIS TYPES AND SPECIALIZED IREQUIREMENTS All debris will be processed and segregated into the following five main categories: VEGETATIVE DEBRIS Vegetative debris operations equipment may include,but is not limited to: rubber tired loaders with buckets,rakes or grapples; rubber tired excavators with grapples or thumbs; tele-handlers; track type loaders with rakes, grapples (to be utilized only under certain permitted conditions); trailer or truck mounted knuckle booms with grapples or clam shells;self-loading trucks (knuckle boom with grapples or clam shells);farm type tractors with box blades,flat blades or brooms; bobcat type loaders; bucket trucks with 50' booms for hazardous tree and limb trimming (including Hanger and Leaners located on improved public property, overhanging and threatening a public use area or a possible threat to traffic); 30 ton or larger cranes to remove heavy stumps and or trunks; haul trucks ranging in size from 16 to 120 cubic yard capacity; roll-off dumpsters; flat-bed tractor trailers to transport equipment or stumps and oversized tree trunks,fuel and service trucks. 1 Vegetative debris operations personnel requirements may include, but are not limited to, equipment operators; superintendents with trucks; foremen with trucks; operators with chainsaws; traffic control personnel; general laborers with tools; safety personnel; mechanics; hazardous materials technicians; documentation personnel; quality 0 assurance personnel and project managers. CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION(C&D)DEBRIS II C&D debris operations may use the same equipment as for vegetative debris. Curbside separation by the contractor and public is important to ensure proper segregation of vegetative and C&D debris and to segregate any hazardous and/or household hazardous waste. A debris pick-up and haul operation that is primarily focused on C&D debris may also require equipment such as: D-6 or larger dozers; track-type excavators with impact hammers, electromagnets and/or concrete shears and/or grapples and other specialized equipment to segregate or prepare the debris for transport. The personnel requirements for C&D debris operations are similar, if not identical, to those of vegetative debris operations. DRC and its subcontractors own or have access to the equipment required for these services, including front-end loaders, excavators, rubber-tired backhoes, most with grapples, knuckle boom loaders, dump trucks,dump trailers and service trucks. METALLIC DEBRIS AND WHITE GOODS White goods can present a difficult dilemma to the recovery efforts. If white goods contain Freon, the Freon must be Q removed before it is accidentally released into the air in violation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations. Typically, white goods are moved to DMS prior to Freon removal so the removal activities can be more effectively monitored and thoroughly controlled. Freon is then removed by a licensed Freon recycler and the white ggoods are crushed or shredded in the recycling program. White goods recovery (pick-up and haul),with the exception of white goods requiring Freon recovery,is treated and II accomplished as though it were either C&D debris or recyclable debris, dependent upon the final disposal source. Each Freon containing piece of white goods should be hand or mechanically loaded in such a way as to not allow ��a DRC Emergency Services,LLC 60 EMERGENCY SERisE: RFP No.18-04-02 -- smkNg Back
