Dear Mr. Michael:
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Brownfields Redevelopment Section
(BRS) has received the 2023 Annual Methane Monitoring Report (Report) dated January 2, 2024. The
Report was submitted by Hart & Hickman on behalf of 5518 and 5600 David Cox Road, LLC. This
Report summarizes the findings of the 2023 methane monitoring activities conducted in accordance with
the approved Environmental Management Plan dated April 11, 2014 (EMP) approved by the Brownfields
Redevelopment Section.
Review of the data indicates that methane concentrations within the landfill area remain relatively
constant and have remained relatively stable since approximately April 2022. In addition, indoor and
outdoor ambient air samples continue to show no detections of methane. Finally, the Report indicates
that semi-annual monitoring will continue at the site.
The BRS concurs with the summary and conclusions presented in the Report. If you have any questions,
please feel free to contact me at 910-796-7408, or via e-mail at samuel.watsongdeq.nc. gov .
Sincerely,
Samuel P. Watson
