Were feasible, waste generation will be minimized by recycling materials no longer <br />• suitable for other beneficial uses. Such materials include but are not limited to metals, <br />oils, greases, antifreeze, and lead-acid batteries. Appropriate storage is provided for the <br />respective materials such as bulk storage for the liquids, specially designated dumpster <br />bins for smaller metal scrap, and used battery storage within the warehouse. <br />Waste tires are temporarily stored near the maintenance facilities prior to final disposal in <br />a suitable landfill or taken for recycling. Such tires will be stacked in an orderly fashion in <br />a manner compatible with existing regulations. In general, accumulations of waste tires <br />will be small and stacked with adequate spacing to minimize the threat of spontaneous <br />combustion. They will also be located away from heat sources. <br />Spent chlorinated solvents are maintained in designated containers at the equipment <br />maintenance facilities at the D-Portal Area and the railroad. These materials are <br />periodically taken off-site for recycling. <br />Demolition rubble generated during reclamation may be stored on site and used as fill <br />material when compatible with the reclamation plan. Scrap metals and other materials <br />• and equipment generated during facility dismantlement with intrinsic value will be <br />salvaged or recycled when feasible. Temporary storage for demolition rubble and <br />salvaged materials will be on previously disturbed ground in close proximity to their <br />source. Such storage will be in a manner that does not pose a threat to fish, wildlife, and <br />related environmental values. <br />IV.P Equipment and material storage facilities <br />The majority of equipment and material storage facilities encompass the D-Portal Area. <br />Materials for the railroad are stored on the graveled areas within the railroad loop. <br />Minor storage of materials, equipment, and supplies may occur throughout the mine site. <br />Examples of such storage include roles of conveyor belt at transfer stations, straw bales <br />and mulching materials commensurate with their use, clean rock for rip-rap and sediment <br />control. Temporary storage of equipment, materials, and supplies will also be allowed <br />adjacent to facilities to facilitate construction and repair on an as-needed basis. <br />• Rev.
