The following discussion shall be incorporated into the
Hazardous Waste Element of the Alameda County Solid Waste
Management Plan (July 29, 1987) at Chapter V, page V -7 after
Table V -2.
ASBESTOS QUANTITY AND DISPOSAL
Asbestos has been used commercialy in a variety of products
up until the early 1970s. Because of the recognized health risk,
the manufacture and use of asbestos products has been rapidly
reduced. However, much of the material installed in the past
(especially in buildings) may still be present, and must be
encapsulated or removed and properly disposed.
The quantity of asbestos - containing waste generated is
included under the miscellaneous category in Table V -2 of the
Solid Waste Management Plan, adopted July 29, 1987. Alameda
County generated 5,313 tons (6,303 cubic yards) of asbestos -
containing waste which was disposed in Alameda County or out of
the county. Oakland Scavenger Company offers disposal of
asbestos - containing waste in accordance with DOHS regulations at
Durham Road and Altamont Landfills in Alameda County. In 1987,
these landfills received for disposal 1,710 cubic yards of
asbestos - containing waste.
