Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton | Disaster Debris Management Plan | 2022 43 Debris Planning Considerations Disasters create new physical barriers and eliminate and/or reduce services available to everyone. For people with access and functional needs, this may remove or reduce their ability to perform certain functions that were previously possible, limit their capacity to live independently, and/or navigate the available disaster response and recovery processes effectively. To the greatest extent possible, populations with disabilities and functional and access must be identified and prioritized during debris operations. Public Information Accurate, accessible information before, during, and after an emergency allows individuals with disabilities and access and functional needs better respond to disasters. The Cities will provide disaster preparedness, response and recovery information that is tailored to the individual City Communities. It will be delivered in multiple formats. Emergency Roadway Clearance During the emergency roadway clearance, debris is pushed out of the road onto the ROW. This allows emergency response vehicles to pass but it obstructs sidewalks. Public entities can coordinate with volunteer organizations to identify vulnerable populations and prioritize those areas for initial ROW debris removal. This will expedite removal from sidewalks and other critical pathways for individuals with mobility challenges. ROW Collection ROW collection can create challenges for individuals with disabilities and access and functional needs. Bringing debris to the ROW may adversely impact individuals with mobility challenges. Jurisdictions can coordinate with volunteer organizations active in disasters to identify potential vulnerable populations and coordinate services to assist with debris removal services. 3.4 Debris Disposal Locations and Debris Management Sites Following a debris-generating incident, the Cities will need to identify land that can be used as TDMSs. Attachment L provides a form to use in assessing TDMSs. The City of Pleasanton has a Transfer Station owned and operated by Pleasanton Garbage Service located at 3110 Busch Road. The City has a sole franchise agreement with Pleasanton Garbage. Per the franchise agreement, the approved solid waste disposal site is the Altamont Landfill owned and operated by Waste Management at 10840 Altamont Pass Road in Livermore. The approved facility for Construction and Demolition Debris Processing is the Transfer Station. The processing of this material is completed by a subsidiary of Pleasanton Garbage called Recycling and Resource Recovery Systems, LLC. The Franchise Agreement also stipulates the following Provision of Emergency Services in Section 6.15, Provision of Emergency Services: Contractor shall provide emergency services at the City’s request in the event of major accidents, disruptions, or natural calamities in a manner consistent with the services and procedures identified in its contingency plan required in accordance with Section 5.9. Emergency services may include, but are not limited to assistance handling salvaged materials, processing, composting, or recycling materials, or disposing of solid waste following a major accident, disruption, or natural calamity.
