:'''Landfill Disposal:''' Sanitary landfills may require street sweepings be analyzed prior to disposal. Please work with the sanitary landfill and the appropriate Environmental Specialist in Design Division to complete the process. Landfills will sometimes issue permits for up to 3 years for analyzed street sweepings.
  
−
To qualify for the beneficial use exception, the sweepings must be composed of grit and dirt from the roadway surface and only minor amounts of trash, litter or automotive parts can be present in the sweepings. The sweepings can contain asphaltic concrete materials as clarified in the April 2010 MDNR approval letter.

The sweepings can contain asphaltic concrete materials as clarified in the April 2010 MDNR approval letter.  
  
 
Street sweepings need to be processed or screened to remove trash, litter and other debris. If the screenings still contain excessive amounts of trash, litter or other debris, additional processing will be required; or the materials will need to be disposed in a landfill. All of the trash, litter and other debris removed by the screening process shall be disposed of in a sanitary landfill.

Since the distribution of [[media:127.25.1.7 MDC Agreement.pdf|a 1987 letter of agreement]], MoDOT has reported all deer killed on its right of way to the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC).  Each deer found on MoDOT right of way is to be reported to the district office and the information logged on the [[media:101 Maintenance - Deer Death Report Form and Map.xls|Deer Death Report Form and Map (Excel)]].  The monthly log sheets are to be forwarded to the Maintenance Operations Functional Unit at General Headquarters by the 15th of the following month.  The information will be forwarded to the MDC.
 
  
 
'''Accepted Disposal Practices'''
 
'''Accepted Disposal Practices'''
  
−
:*Option 1 - Bury the carcass on highway right of way, provided it is not prohibited by local ordinances, and not in a waterway.  The carcass should be buried at a minimum depth of 30 inches.  Call [[:Category:142 Missouri One Call System|800-DIG-RITE (800-344-7483)]] prior to digging.
+
:*Option 1 - Drag the carcass to the outer portion of the right of way, outside any active drainage ditch or channel.  This provides for minimal movement, removes the immediate traffic hazard, and clears the area for mowing or other roadside work.   
  
 
:*Option 2 - Dispose of the animal carcass at a state-approved sanitary landfill, with the landfill operator's approval.  There will likely be a fee associated with this option.

MoDOT activities disturbing one acre or more of total land area require storm water permit authorization from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR). This includes many construction and maintenance grading operations. The "[[media:127.25.4.1 permit.pdf|MoDOT Operating Permit for Land Disturbance]]" from the MDNR authorizes these MoDOT grading activities so long as a site-specific [[806.8 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)|storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP)]] has been developed for the activity prior to commencing land disturbance. Some minimal impact activities, such as narrow linear, strip or ribbon construction or maintenance activities such as cleaning or routine maintenance of roadside ditches are exempt from the storm water permit requirements.

127.25.1.2 Solid Waste

The department shall dispose of garbage, refuse and other discarded material in a permitted sanitary landfill. Materials such as whole tires, batteries, appliances, used oil and hazardous wastes are prohibited from being disposed of in a sanitary landfill and shall be recycled as regulations dictate. Construction and Demolition Waste also considered solid waste from older buildings being renovated or demolished to make room for newer, more modern buildings. Properly managing the waste during the demolition will prevent threats to human health and the environment.

Reason for Policy: RSMo 260.200 - 260.345 Environmental Control

Effective Date: 6/1/99

Revision Dates: 10/27/15

127.25.1.3 Tire Management

Waste tires unsuitable for sale or recapping shall be disposed of under state contract CCO form MT15. Contact an Environmental Specialist for current contract information. Burning tires or tire pieces is prohibited. Tires and tire pieces shall be stored in a manner that avoids providing a mosquito-breeding site. Twenty-five or more whole tires stored at any one site must be covered. Maintain an inventory of less than 500 whole tires at any one site, at any one time, unless they are loaded on a truck for disposal.

Reason for Policy: 10 CSR 80-8.010 - 80-8.040 Solid Waste Management

Effective Date: 6/1/99

Revision Dates: 10/27/15

127.25.1.4 Street Sweepings

Street sweepings are considered solid waste by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR). The sweepings must be disposed of in a permitted sanitary landfill. An exception from disposal in a landfill has been granted by MDNR. To qualify for the exemption, the street sweepings must meet the beneficial use requirements as established by MDNR.

MDNR Approval Letters and Street Sweeping Sampling Information
Street Sweep MDNR 2007 letter
Street Sweep MDNR 2010 letter
Street Sweep Guidance/Beneficial Use Approval
Street Sweep Sampling Protocol
Landfill Disposal: Sanitary landfills may require street sweepings be analyzed prior to disposal. Please work with the sanitary landfill and the appropriate Environmental Specialist in Design Division to complete the process. Landfills will sometimes issue permits for up to 3 years for analyzed street sweepings.
Beneficial Use: To qualify for the beneficial use exception, the sweepings must be composed of grit and dirt from the roadway surface and only minor amounts of trash, litter or automotive parts can be present in the sweepings. The sweepings can contain asphaltic concrete materials as clarified in the April 2010 MDNR approval letter.

Street sweepings need to be processed or screened to remove trash, litter and other debris. If the screenings still contain excessive amounts of trash, litter or other debris, additional processing will be required; or the materials will need to be disposed in a landfill. All of the trash, litter and other debris removed by the screening process shall be disposed of in a sanitary landfill.

Sampling and testing of the screened grit and dirt material is required by MDNR. At least one sample must be collected for every 500 cubic yards of screened material created. The guidance in the sampling protocol must be followed. This includes proper sample collection, preservation and analysis by MoDOT’s chemical laboratory. Questions regarding the sampling protocol should be directed to the appropriate Environmental Specialist in Design Division.

A copy of the sample results must be kept on file at the Maintenance building where the screenings were processed and a copy of the sample results needs to be provided to the Environment section of the Design Division.

Reason for Policy: 10 CSR 80 Solid Waste Management Regulations and RSMo 644 Missouri Clean Water Law.

Revision Dates: 8/26/21

127.25.1.5 Antifreeze

In the ANTIFREEZE WASTE MANAGEMENT GUIDE DNR Publication 114, waste antifreeze is not a listed hazardous waste under the federal hazardous waste regulations in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 261 Subpart D, but antifreeze may contain metals, particularly lead, and other substances that would cause it to be classified as a characteristic hazardous waste (40 CFR 261 Subpart C). Spent antifreeze from vehicle maintenance activities shall be collected and processed through a MoDOT antifreeze recycler. Antifreeze that is not reused in the vehicle must be sent to a recycler that accepts antifreeze. Antifreeze may never be discharged to storm sewers, septic systems, streams or on the ground.

Reason for Policy: 10 CSR 25-5.262, Hazardous Waste Management Program. Reduce antifreeze cost and disposal cost.

Effective Date: 6/1/99

Revision Dates: 10/27/15

127.25.1.6 Battery Management

All non-rechargeable batteries shall be managed as a solid waste. All rechargeable batteries shall be recycled with an approved recycler. Place cracked lead acid batteries in an acid safe container and contact your battery recycler or Environmental Specialist for specific information. All lead acid batteries should be inside secondary containment.

Reason for Policy: 40 CFR 266.80 Rechargeable batteries contain specific hazardous components such as nickel, cadmium, mercury, lead and sulfuric acid that cause the batteries to be a hazardous waste unless they are sent to a recycler, DNR publication 2058.

Effective Date: 6/1/99

Revision Dates: 10/27/15

127.25.1.7 Disposal of Animal Carcasses

Animal carcasses found on MoDOT right of way shall be disposed of properly. MoDOT’s primary responsibility of Highway Safety requires removal of all traffic hazards in a timely manner from the active roadway. Options for disposal are listed below under Accepted Disposal Practices. It is the supervisor's responsibility to choose the option that best suits the needs of their particular area. Disposal practices other than the accepted practices listed below will require State Maintenance Director approval.

Accepted Disposal Practices

  • Option 1 - Drag the carcass to the outer portion of the right of way, outside any active drainage ditch or channel. This provides for minimal movement, removes the immediate traffic hazard, and clears the area for mowing or other roadside work.
  • Option 2 - Dispose of the animal carcass at a state-approved sanitary landfill, with the landfill operator's approval. There will likely be a fee associated with this option.
  • Option 3 - Dispose of the carcass in a MoDOT incinerator. A list of active MoDOT incinerators with location is maintained in Maintenance Division. An incinerator report is required, which may be completed in SharePoint, and Maintenance Division will provide a summary from this reporting to MDC on an annual basis.
  • Option 4 - Dispose of the carcass at a site and in a manner pre-approved by the MDC. Written approval from MDC is required.

127.25.2 Hazardous Material Spills

127.25.2.1 Hazardous Material Spills (Roadway) by Others

MoDOT may become responsible for abandoned drums and containers, illegal dumped chemicals and accidental releases of hazardous materials on department property. When hazardous material spills and incidents are discovered on department property, MoDOT personnel shall follow the department's Hazardous Materials Response Plan to assure the material is handled properly. Reporting will be made to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Environmental Emergency Response (EER) (573) 634-2436 in accordance with MoDOT procedures and Missouri RSMo 260.500 through 260.550.

Note: All unknown materials and containers will be treated as hazardous waste until proven otherwise. When an unknown material or a known hazardous material is discovered on the department's property, the District Hazardous Material Coordinator (DHMC) will be notified. The DHMC will call the MDNR EER 24 hour hotline number, (573) 634-2436, and report all information available. It will then be the responsibility of the MDNR EER to determine if the material is hazardous. If DNR makes the declaration of a “hazardous substance emergency”, they will (1) respond with their own resources, or (2) contact the contractor to respond to the incident. In either case, either party will conduct the initial containerization and remove the material from the ROW to the nearest available storage facility, while any additional waste stream profile analysis is performed. MoDOT staff will arrange for any required shipment, disposal and reporting once waste stream profiling is complete. The DMHC shall notify the appropriate Environmental personnel of the spill through the spill reporting e-mail group for all spills that require a DNR response.

In the event the abandoned container is neither leaking nor bulging, but is located within the clear zone, then the same contact protocol would apply as specified above. The only exception would be if MDNR were unable to respond immediately to the incident (due to lack of personnel availability, etc.), then MoDOT shall contact the appropriate emergency response contractor as specified in our Hazardous Substance Cleanup & Disposal Services OA contract to ensure a timely response.

If a responsible party cannot be identified, then the response, characterization and disposal costs would become the responsibility of MoDOT (for either hazardous or non-hazardous substance responses). In those instances where an owner (responsible party) can be identified, MoDOT will seek cost recovery from the owner. If there has been a release, it will be necessary to coordinate with district Traffic personnel to write a permit to the responsible party or the emergency response contractor to allow cleanup on department property.

Note: Discovery of suspect mobile meth labs shall follow a variation of this process, as outlined in “Publication for Dealing with Mobile Meth Labs”, due to the law enforcement aspect associated with this material.

MoDOT employees shall take immediate action to contain the release and clean up spilled material. Reporting shall be made to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Environmental Emergency Response (EER) 573-634-2436 in accordance with MoDOT procedures and Missouri RSMo 260.500 through 260.550. If any of the material spilled comes in contact with waters of the state (creeks, springs, rivers, groundwater or ponds) the incident shall also immediately be reported to the National Response Center (NRC) at 800-424-8802. Incidents during the normal working day shall be reported to the district as soon as possible. The District office shall in turn report to the Maintenance division as soon as possible. Should an incident occur after normal working hours, information should be telephoned to available maintenance personnel. The DHMC shall also notify Environmental staff through the spill reporting e-mail group of any spills contained on MoDOT property that do not involve a release to waters of the state, and meet the spill thresholds outlined in the "Top Ten Spill Prevention Items" (i.e., spills at maintenance facilities or during maintenance operations).
