Resolution No. 88-403 <br />Page 2. <br /> <br />The following discussion shall be incorporated into the Hazardous <br />Waste Element of the Alameda County Solid Waste Management Plan <br />(July 29, 1987) at Chapter V, page V-7 after Table V-2. <br /> <br /> ASBESTOS QUALITY AND DISPOSAL <br /> <br /> Asbestos has been used commercially in a variety of <br /> products up until the early 1970's. Because of the recog- <br /> nized health risk, the manufacture and use of asbestos prod- <br /> ucts has been rapidly reduced. However, much of the material <br /> installed in the past (especially in buildings) may still be <br /> present, and must be encapsulated or removed and properly <br /> disposed. <br /> <br /> The quantity of asbestos-containing waste generated is <br /> included under the miscellaneous category in Table V-2 of the <br /> Solid Waste Management Plan, adopted July 29, 1987. Alameda <br /> County generated 5,313 tons (6,303 cubic yards) of asbestos- <br /> containing waste which was disposed in Alameda County or out <br /> of county. Oakland Scavenger Company offers disposal of <br /> asbestos-containing waste in accordance with DOHS regulations <br /> at Durham Road and Altamont Landfills in Alameda County. In <br /> 1987, these landfills received for disposal 1,710 cubic yards <br /> of asbestos-containing waste. <br /> <br />THIS RESOLUTION ADOPTED AUGUST 16, 1988 BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: <br /> <br />AYES: Councilmembers Brandes, Butler, Mohr, Wilson and <br /> Mayor Mercer <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None ~~ <br />ABSTAIN: None <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br /> KENNETH R.
