Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton | Disaster Debris Management Plan | 2022 28 A sample memorandum of agreement has been included in Attachment G in the event a City chooses to establish an agreement with a private property owner for use of privately-owned property as a TDMS. Debris brought to a TDMS is sorted to remove recyclable materials and materials not suitable for reuse. The materials not suitable for reuse are taken to a landfill. Ideally, all concrete rubble would be processed at the TDMS into reusable aggregate. This option may be considered if space, site characteristics, and available resources allow. The size of the site is dependent on the quantity of debris that needs to be stored and processed. The site should be large enough to safely accommodate the processing of various debris materials, storing heavy equipment, and maneuvering trucks and large processing equipment. The TDMS should be established in an area that does not impede the flow of normal traffic along major transportation corridors, disrupt local business operations, or cause dangerous conditions in residential neighborhoods or schools. Whenever possible, avoid locating a TDMS near residential areas, schools, churches, hospitals, and other such sensitive areas. The Cities must also consider community acceptability when selecting a potential TDMS. The community’s acceptance of the TDMS location usually depends on the reduction methods that will be conducted at the site. Around-the-clock light and noise from equipment operation, dust, and traffic are generally tolerated early in a disaster recovery operation but may have to be curtailed later in the recovery phase. The following factors should be taken into consideration when identifying a debris management site:  Current availability  Duration of availability  Site ingress/egress and access to transportation routes  Geographic location within the jurisdiction  A minimum of 10 acres of usable land  Well-drained site with soils suitable for supporting heavy vehicles and equipment  Strategic placement to minimize debris transportation requirements and travel time to and from loading points; the TDMS should be located as close as possible to the concentrations of disaster debris  Access to electrical and water utilities for site operations  Minimum potential for disruption of critical services Potential locations for a TDMS may include the following:  Recycling facility  Landfill  Transfer station  Vacant lot  Corporation yard
