Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton | Disaster Debris Management Plan | 2022 33 debris stream at TDMSs.  Decide whether to contract with an established HHW collection firm to augment or replace HHW drop-off sites to ensure HHW is properly disposed of. Measures should be taken to identify, segregate, and dispose of intermingled HHW at TDMSs.  Interface with the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and CalEPA. Describe the HHW collection program and permitted facilities to be used for disposal or recycling. Electronic Waste Electronic waste, or e-waste, refers to electronics that contain HAZMAT such as cathode ray tubes. Examples include computer monitors and televisions. Electronic waste is considered HHW and must be managed following the CalEPA guidelines for disposal listed in Section 3.3.6. White Goods Debris Removal White goods include refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, heat pumps, ovens, ranges, washing machines, clothes dryers, etc. White goods debris that contains ozone-depleting refrigerants, mercury, or compressor oils need to have such materials removed by a certified technician before recycling. All state and federal laws should be followed regarding the final disposal of removed refrigerants, mercury, or compressor oils. Collection of white goods can be conducted internally or using contracted services on a unit rate basis. The Cities will conduct the following activities to support white goods removal:  Communicate the procedures for white goods removal to residents in affected areas. Residents must separate white goods from other debris to ensure white goods are not mixed with other debris streams during collection.  Interface with the Alameda County Environmental Health Department and CalEPA. Describe the white goods collection program and permitted facilities to be used for disposal of recovered refrigerants, mercury, or compressor oils. Construction and Demolition (C&D) Debris C&D debris is damaged components of buildings and structures such as lumber and wood, gypsum wallboard, glass, metal, roofing material, tile, carpeting and floor coverings, window coverings, pipe, concrete, fully cured asphalt, equipment, furnishings, and fixtures. Certain types of C&D debris are reusable or recyclable. To conserve landfill space, C&D debris should be separated by material type for reuse or recycling. Some C&D debris may be hazardous, such as asbestos roofing and floor tile, and lead pipes. Section 3.3.6 of this plan provides information from CalEPA on how to manage hazardous debris, including asbestos-containing materials. Documentation of the debris origin, any processing (reduction or recycling), and the final disposition is required for receiving state and/or federal funding. Typically, removal of construction by-products generated by repairs or rebuilding is covered by insurance policies or included in the overall cost for reconstruction projects; therefore, construction by-products are not considered disaster-related debris.
