  2. Spotter Inspection at ground level
  3. Operator Inspection as the load is culled

-If unauthorized (non-permitted) waste is found in a load, it is handled appropriately:

  • at the tower, the load is rejected and the truck is refused entry
  • by the spotter, the truck is reloaded, charged a ‘rejection fee’ and is re-directed to an appropriate landfill
  • by the operator and/or spotter (once the truck has departed), the waste is segregated in an isolated and properly contained area based on the type of debris (i.e. HHW, garbage, e-waste, tires, etc)
