Pre-Inspection Preparation A. FACILITY-SPECIFIC WASTE BAN COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS During each third-party inspection, the third-party inspector shall assess compliance with the waste bans by the facility and by the haulers and generators delivering waste to the facility, in order to determine the facility’s compliance with all applicable waste ban requirements as set forth in 310 CMR 19.018(7)(c)1. Therefore, pursuant to 310 CMR 19.018(7)(c)1, prior to conducting a third-party waste ban inspection, the third-party inspector shall, without limitation, complete all of the following: Identify, review and become familiar with all solid waste requirements applicable to waste ban compliance at the facility including the facility’s waste ban compliance plan, as approved by the Department. Review and become familiar with the regulations set forth at 310 CMR 19.017 –Waste Bans. Review and become familiar with MassDEP’s Guidance for Solid Waste Handling and Disposal Facilities on Compliance with MassDEP’s Waste Bans. I,Geoffrey Souza, have identified, reviewed and understand all of the aforementioned requirements that are applicable to this facility and the following are my observations and recommendations related to the facility-specific requirements. ►GS Inspector Initials B. CURRENT WASTE BAN COMPLIANCE PLAN 6/2014 Plan Date (MM/DD/YYYY) NA Approval Date, if applicable Identify the number of comprehensive load inspections the facility is required to conduct each month*: (see Waste Ban Compliance Plan, Part D)4 Number of Loads *Note: This is independent from and may be different than the required number of loads observed during a Third-Party Waste Ban Inspection. C. MINIMUM NUMBER OF LOADS FOR OBSERVATION Identify the number of incoming waste loads that will be observed by the third-party inspector during the inspection: Standard:Pursuant to 310 CMR 19.018(7)(e)1, the minimum number of loads observed during the inspection will be: For a facility permitted to accept from 1 to 99 tons of waste per day, four (4) vehicle loads. For a facility permitted to accept greater than 99 but less than 299 tons of waste per day, eight (8) vehicle loads. For a facility permitted to accept greater than 299 but less than 499 tons of waste per day, twelve (12) vehicle loads. For a facility permitted to accept greater than 499 but less than 999 tons of waste per day, sixteen (16) vehicle loads. For a facility permitted to accept more than 999 tons of waste per day, twenty (20) vehicle loads. Alternative:Pursuant to 310 CMR 19.018(7)(e)2, an alternative number of loads* will be observed during the inspection. Identify the number of loads and provide the basis for using this alternative:Number of Loads *Note: As an alternative to the minimum number of loads set forth at 310 CMR 19.018(7)(e)1, for a facility that has operated below the facility’s permitted capacity for the previous year, the third-party inspector may apply the average actual daily receipt of waste (in tons) over the preceding year (instead of the permitted tonnage amount) to the minimum load criteria set forth at 310 CMR 19.018(7)(e)1.

Inspection Observations During the inspection and for the minimum number of loads as required pursuant to 310 CMR 19.018(7)(e), the third-party inspector shall examine and evaluate waste ban compliance as follows: A. OPERATIONS & RECORD-KEEPING Examine and evaluate the facility’s operations and record-keeping related to waste ban compliance. Performance Standard Response Comments/Observations and Recommended Corrective Action(s) Is the ongoing monitoring of incoming waste being conducted in accordance with the facility’s approved waste ban compliance plan and other applicable requirements? YES NO Are the comprehensive load inspections of incoming waste being conducted in accordance with the minimum inspection frequency set forth in the facility’s approved waste ban compliance plan? (Refer to Section IV.B. above.) YES NO Are the results of the ongoing monitoring and comprehensive load inspections being properly documented in accordance with the facility’s approved waste ban compliance plan and other applicable requirements? YES NO Is the failed load communication, including failed load letters as applicable, being conducted in accordance with the facility’s approved waste ban compliance plan and other applicable requirements? YES NO No failed loads this period. B. LOAD OBSERVATION Once the third-party inspector begins the Waste Ban inspection, the third-party inspector shall visually monitor and document all incoming loads received at the facility during the inspection until the applicable minimum number of loads containing at least five cubic yards of material each have been observed. (Refer to Section IV.C. above.) Please retain photographs and a copy of the weigh slip (if applicable) for each failed load identified during the inspection. Do not submit photographs or weigh slips with this inspection report; MassDEP may request such information to be submitted separately. Report data for each load observed during the inspection by completing the table provided by the Department online at: http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/massdep/recycle/approvals/solid-waste-applications-and-forms.html#8. Note: the completed Load Observation Table will be submitted to the Department electronically. Refer to the instructions in Section VII.

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS Pursuant to 310 CMR 19.018(8)(b)2.b., the third-party inspector shall provide a comparative analysis of the percentage of failed loads identified by the third-party inspector during the inspection and the percentage of failed loads documented pursuant to the ongoing load inspections conducted over the immediately preceding inspection period in accordance with the facility’s approved waste ban compliance plan. For the purposes of the comparative analysis, the preceding inspection period should consist of the appropriate number of whole months prior to the inspection. For example, if a semi-annual inspection is required (one inspection every six months), then the comparative analysis for an inspection that occurs in November should include waste ban compliance data from May through October (the preceding whole six months). Prepare the comparative analysis required by 310 CMR 19.018(8)(b)2.b. by completing the comparative analysis summary provided by the Department online at:http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/massdep/recycle/approvals/solid-waste- applications-and-forms.html#8.
