A written test protocol was submitted in August will) a tentative(late in October of 2009. III bold in this same box(2.9), it states"DAQ Regional Supervisor must be notified at least 15 days prior to the actual test date(s)". Note this is also required by North Carolina regulation NCAC2D .2602(d)-this 15 day advance notification to this Office is to allow observation of the test. fit phone conversations this week with you and Mr.Kitrt Shaner, it appears that ill the rush to test this notification was overlooked However, a key element of our inspection during source testing is the recording of the operating parameters under which the test was conducted. This information is used to evaluate the source test data as well as to assist in determining future compliance. Please provide this office, prior to 3 November 2009,the following information related to the testing: 1. the NMOC Flow rate and landfill pressure readings(strip charts and/01 any other onsite ololutoring data collected for the landfill equipment) For21,22,and 23 September 2009;and 2, according to the test report submitted, there was a 4°i(backup)sample collected during the testing. Please provide the results of the analysis for NMOC concentration that was conducted on this 4u'(backup)sample. The Division strongly recommends that you carefully examine your current permit and request explanation front this Office as necessary.

In a letter dated October 23,2009, the Fayetteville Regional Office of the Division of Air Quality requested additional information pertaining to the site-specific NMOC testing conducted at the site by SCS Engineers. In general, the October 23,2009 letter requested(1) flare operational data and(2) laboratory analysis from the 4'h sample of landfill gas collected during the NMOC test. Following receipt of the October 23, 2009 letter, SCS contacted the Fayetteville office to clarify what system data was being requested. In a discussion with Mr. Robert Haydon at the Fayetteville Regional Office, it was determined that the attached flare data from the data logger would be sufficient to satisfy the October 23rd request. The attached system information was taken from the flare's data logger and includes the landfill gas flow and temperatures at the flare during the NMOC sampling. The flow and temperature data at the flare are recorded every four minutes by the data logger. Additionally,daily flow and temperatures are shown for approximately a week before and after the test. The fourth sample of landfill gas was never tested by the laboratory. The 4 h sample was taken as a backup incase an air leak occurred in one of the primary samples that would nullify the data. For this Tier II NMOC test,the three samples were representative landfill gas samples that met the requirements specified in the testing protocol so the backup gas sample was never tested. This was communicated to Mr. Hayden of the Fayetteville Regional office and it was discussed that testing the 4th sample was not necessary. Offices Nationwide Mr. Steve Vozzo November 2, 2009 Page 2 SCS and the landfill apologize for not notifying the Fayetteville office 15 days prior to the NMOC testing at the site. We hope this additional information answers any questions you have with the NMOC test. If you have any additional questions or need more information,please feel fiee to call either of the undersigned at(704) 504-3107. Very trulyyours, J Morgan, P.E. Steven C. Lamb,P.E.

prepared for the Anson Waste Management Facility( SW Permit#04-03)by SCS Engineers, PC on behalf of the Chambers Development of North Carolina, Inc. This report was prepared for compliance with the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) 40 CFR 60, Subpart WWW— Standards of Performance for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills—in accordance with the NSPS and SC Regulation 62.1 1V(F). Final Report Prepared By: J Morgan, P.E. Project Engineer 10/15/09 Signature Date The undersigned facility representative certifies that to best of their knowledge, the facility was operating at normal conditions during the site-specific (Tier 2) test and that the information contained within this report is an accurate representation of their facility and its processes and measured emissions. Responsible Facility Representative: Tyler Fitzgerald Landfill Division Manager 10/15/09 Signa / Date ii Anson Waste Management Facility INTRODUCTION On March 12, 1996, the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) promulgated the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and Emissions Guidelines (EG)for new and existing landfills under Section III (b) of the Clean Air Act(CAA). The basis for this legislation is EPA's determination that municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills contribute ' significant amounts of air pollution that is potentially detrimental to public health. The NSPS are intended to control non-methane organic compound(NMOC) and methanogenic emissions from MSW landfills. NMOCs include volatile organic compounds (VOCs), hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), and odorous compounds. The NSPS applies to landfills having a design capacity greater than 2.5 million Megagrams (Mg) (or 2.75 million tons) that were permitted, modified, or reconstructed after May 30, 1991. Chambers Development of North Carolina, Inc. owns and operates the Anson Waste Management Facility (Landfill). The landfill also operates a"voluntary" landfill gas (LEG) collection and control system (GCCS) located on the site. The collected landfill gas is destroyed in an onsite utility flare. The landfill is regulated under the NSPS based upon having a design capacity exceeding 2.5 million Mg. Section 60.757(c)(1) states that if the Tier 1 analysis results in NMOC emissions greater than 50 Mg per year(a Tier 1 test was previously performed at the Landfill by SCS Engineers on May 15, 2009, the landfill failed the Tier 1 test), therefore, a site-specific Ter 2 NMOC emissions rate report must be completed. The results of the Tier 2 test will yield a site-specific NMOC concentration for the LEG at the Landfill. This site-specific NMOC concentration can be used to more accurately estimate the annual NMOC emissions fi-om this facility and determine this facility's applicability to the NSPS. The site-specific Tier 2 test was performed on September 22, 2009 and the results found the LFG NMOC concentration to be 569 ppm as hexane, which resulted in a maximum predicted annual emission rate of 61.9 Mg for the year 2014 (using the test results, emissions are predicted over a five year period from the test(late). Tier 2 test results are valid for a period of five years. This report was prepared by SCS Engineers, PC (SCS) on behalf of the Anson Waste Management Facility to quantify the NMOC emissions for compliance with the NSPS, 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW, by presenting a Tier 2 sampling, analysis, and revised NMOC emissions estimate. This report includes sections describing the field sampling procedures and activitics, the results of the laboratory analysis, estimates of current and projected annual NMOC emissions, and overall conclusions. i 1 Anson Waste Management Facility TIER 2 NMOC SAMPLING SCS performed site-specific(Tier 2)NMOC field sampling at the Anson Waste Management Facility on September 22,2009 in accordance with procedures outlined in the NSPS and SOS's sampling protocol. The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) approved the methodology of the sampling protocol prior to the field sampling(Appendix B). Copies of the SCS sampling protocol and significant correspondence are included in Appendix A. Field Sampling Procedures SCS conducted Tier 2 sampling in accordance with the NSPS requirements, EPA Method 25C and EPA Method 3C. This NMOC Emission Rate Report was also prepared in accordance with the above mentioned emission guideline requirements. Tier 2 samples were collected from a sampling port on the GCCS that is located upstream of the generators, flare,blower, and skid-mounted condensate knock-out pot such that the gas samples collected will be representative of LEG from the landfill mass. Samples will be drawn from the main header by vacuum into six-litter, stainless steel "SUMMA" canisters. The SUMMA canisters were supplied by AtmAA, Inc. laboratories and certified to be clean and under vacuum. The sampling train included sampling tubing, flow control valve, flow measurement gauge, and a two-way valve directing the sample either into the sampling canister or to field instrumentation. Three samples of LEG were collected and a fourth sample was collected as abackup. Tier 2 Field Sampling Activities The Tier 2 NMOC field samples were collected at the landfill on September 22,2009. Present during the sampling activities was J Morgan of SCS. Prior to sampling, SCS personnel verified with Landfill personnel that the active LEG collection system was operating normally and all applicable wells and collectors had applied vacuum at the time of the Tier 2 test. Pursuant to the above referenced sampling procedure, four representative LEG samples were obtained from the main header upstream from the existing blower and condensate knockout. The sampling location is shown on a figure in Appendix C. All four LEG samples were obtained from the same sample port on the main header and in an identical manner. Field equipment used during the sampling activities included a LandTec R GEM-2000 Infrared Gas Analyzer, an EPA Method 25 C approved sampling valve train with an attached digital pressure gauge, and three 6-liter stainless steel SUMMA sample canisters. In accordance with EPA Method 25 C, the sampling apparatus was connected to the header sample port, checked for leaks, and then purged of ambient air using the GEM 2000 unit. Once LEG readings within the limitations allowed by EPA Method 25C were verified by use of the GEM 500, approximately three liters of LEG was collected, at a rate of 250 i 2 Anson Waste Management Facility ml/min, in each SUMMA canister. SCS performed a leak check during the sampling by closing the sample train valve and allowing the SUMMA canister to apply vacuum to the sample train alone. During all runs the leak test indicated no leaks in the sample train. An individual SUMMA canister was used for each of the four LEG samples. SCS shipped the four LEG sample SUMMA canisters via Federal Express to AtmAA Laboratory of Calabasas, California, for subsequent analysis in accordance with EPA Method 3C and 25C. Appendix D contains the Tier 2 sampling logs and AtmAA chain of custody form. TIER 2 NMOC LABORATORY ANALYSIS A laboratory analysis of the LEG samples was performed by AtmAA using EPA Methods 25C and 3C. Measured NMOC concentrations from the SUMMA canisters were corrected for moisture,nitrogen, and pressurization of the canister. SCS provided AtmAA with the field conditions (temperature and barometric pressure) at the time of LEG sampling to achieve an accurate calculation of the NMOC concentration. AtmAA performed these calculations and equipment calibrations as documented in Appendix E. The laboratory results (shown in Table 1) were close in range, which, statistically, leads to a high probability that the three samples reflect the actual NMOC content of the LEG. The average NMOC concentration of the three samples is 3,416 ppmv (reported as carbon). Since the EPA Landfill Gas Emissions Model (LandGEM) requires the input of the NMOC concentration in terms of hexane, the laboratory NMOC concentration was converted to hexane by dividing by six. This resulted in an average NMOC concentration of 569 ppmv as hexane. This site-specific NMOC concentration is used in evaluating the revised NMOC emissions. i 1 3 Anson Waste Management Facility Table 1 .

TIER 2 NMOC EMISSION ESTIMATES The Tier 2 NMOC emissions estimates for the Landfill were performed using SCS's spreadsheet version of the EPA LandGEM Model. The model inputs established in Section 60.754(a)(1), the average NMOC concentration, and the refuse fill history of the facility were used to perform the Tier 2 model and are as follows: e Methane Generation Potential (Lo)— 170.0 m3/Mg. (Default value cited by NSPS) e Methane Generation Rate Constant(lc)—0.05/year. (Default value cited by NSPS) e NMOC Concentration— 569 ppmv as hexane. (Field sampling value) e Refuse Filling History—SCS used tonnage records provided by the Landfill. Future annual waste volumes were also supplied by the Landfill. The fill history is shown in the LandGEM model output in Appendix F. According to the EPA LandGEM Model, the 2009 NMOC emission rate for the Landfill is 43.9 Mg/year(or 48.3 tons/year). The maximum annual NMOC emission rate predicted over the next five-year period will be 61.95 Mg/year(or 68.2 tons/year) in the year 2014. A copy of the Tier 11 model output is included in Appendix F. The results of the model are summarized below in Table 2. i i 4 Anson Waste Management Facility Table 2.

Installation of the GCCS must be completed within 18 months after the submittal of the Design Plan (February 4, 2014). It should be noted that Tier 3 testing can be a costly process that often does not produce the desired results (i.e., significantly lower the site's NMOC concentration). For these reasons, SCS does not recommend a Tier 3 test for the Anson Waste Management Facility. 5 APPENDIX A SCS SAMPLING PROTOCOL SCS Engineers, P.C.

The AWMF is regulated according to the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency's(EPA's)New Source Performance Standards(NSPS)for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. Per the NSPS regulations, SCS prepared a Tier 1 NMOC Rate Report for the Facility using US EPA's LANDGEM Landfill Gas Emission Model(v3.02)and Tier 1 NSPS default values. The calculations indicate that the Facility will generate over 300 Mg per year of NMOC emissions in year 2009 with increasing amounts every year thereafter. This rate is greater than the regulatory NMOC emission threshold of 50 Mg per year,as defined in 40 CFR 60.752(b)(1)(ii)(A), Per 40 CFR 60,754(a)(2)(ii),the Facility should perform a Tier 2 NMOC emission test to obtain site-specific NMOC data. The Tier 2 test shall be performed upon the NCDENR approval of the testing protocol,and the final Tier 2 NMOC Report will be submitted to the NCDENR. Accordingly, SCS has developed a sampling program to determine the site-specific NMOC concentration in the LFG at the landfill. SCS proposes to collect three composite LFG samples from the existing landfill gas collection and control system. A complete discussion of the proposed sampling program is included as Attachment A for your review and approval.

The results of the Tier 2 test will yield an updated site-specific,NMOC concentration in the landfill gas(LFG) at the Landfill. This NMOC concentration will then be input into a model to estimate the NMOC generation at the Landfill. Ill. PROCESS DESCRIPTION SCS Engineers (SCS)has developed a sampling program to establish the site-specific NMOC concentration in LFG for the NSPS Tier 2 NMOC emission rate calculations. Existing LFG Collection and Flaring System The Landfill's currently constructed footprint is approximately 40 acres. The Landfill has an active LFG collection and control system(GCCS)which consists of 15 vertical extraction wells, several LFG condensate sumps,header and lateral piping, and a 2,500 scfm Zink utility flare. A site map is provided as Attachment B. The utility flare is permitted by NCDENR and the Air Quality Permit number for the site is 098351100. Al i The vertical extraction wells are connected via laterals to one main header that conveys the withdrawn LFG through the blower to the flare. All header and lateral piping is SDR 17 HDPE pipe installed below grade. LFG is collected and transported via the laterals to the LFG flare skid. The LFG flare skid contains blowers, condensate removal equipment, and various control valves and monitoring devices. IV. SAMPLING AND ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES The sampling and analytical procedures are presented below. `filer 2 Sampling Protocol SCS will conduct Tier 2 sampling and prepare an NMOC Emission Rate Report in accordance with the NSPS requirements, EPA Method 25C and EPA Method 3C. Tier 2 samples will be collected from a sampling port on the GCCS that is located upstream of the flare,blower, and skid-mounted condensate knock-out pot such that the gas samples collected will be representative of LFG from the landfill mass. Samples will be drawn from the main header by vacuum into six-liter,stainless steel, "SUMMA"canisters. The SUMMA canisters will be supplied by the testing lab and certified to be clean and under vacuum. The sampling train will include sampling tubing, a flow control valve, a flow measurement gauge, and a two-way valve which directs the sample either into the sampling canister or to another device(i.e., field instrumentation). LFG quality will be measured and recorded using a LandTec GEM 2000 infrared gas analyzer prior to collecting each LFG sample. The purpose of this measurement is to purge the volume of gas inside the sampling train, and verify that there are no leaks in the sampling train and that oxygen and nitrogen concentrations in the LFG are less than 5 percent and 20 percent, respectively. SCS will conduct a leak check on each SUMMA canister using a dial manometer upon receipt from its laboratory to ensure proper vacuum. A second canister leak check will be performed on each SUMMA just prior to sampling,using the digital manometer on the sampling train. SCS will use the GEM-2000 instrument to sample the LFG prior to sampling to ensure no leaks in the sample train. A final leak check will be performed during sampling to check for leaks in the sample train. This check involves closing the inlet valve from the LFG header and monitoring the digital manometer for two minutes. If the negative pressure continues to fall, SCS will know that the sampling train has a leak. These checks will be recorded in the sampling forms and provided to SCDHEC in the final report. A copy of SCS'S sampling form is included as Attachment D. A total of three sequential LFG samples will be collected for laboratory analysis. A fourth sample will be collected as a backup sample immediately after the primary samples and will be analyzed only if primary samples are damaged through shipping or laboratory procedures. Per i A-2 1 Method 25C,the maximum sampling rate will be 500 ml/min. SCS will verify that the sampling rate is below 500 ml/minute by using a digital manometer to check sample canister pressure. SCS will check the canister pressure prior to and immediately after sampling, and then compare the amount of canister vacuum used with the sampling time. SCS will also use a rotameter, which is a flow measurement device,to check the flow rate during sampling. Approximately five liters of composite sample will be obtained per SUMMA canister for a total of 15 liters of sample. It is estimated that the sampling duration will be approximately 10 minutes per canister, for a total of 30 minutes of sampling for three sample canisters. According to SCS's laboratory subcontractor,EPA Method 25C samples taken in stainless steel SUMMA canisters have a"shelf-life"of 30 days. SCS intends to ship the samples in DOT- approved boxes to our laboratory via overnight courier within one day of sampling. Should the canisters require storage overnight prior to shipment, they will be stored in a cool location, away from heat sources. At the laboratory,the samples will be stored and analyzed within the guidelines of Method 25C (total NMOC analysis)and Method 3C (nitrogen/oxygen analysis). The laboratory typically begins analysis within five days of receipt of samples. The laboratory will observe the following standards: ® The lab will use the minimum detection limits specified by EPA Method 25C. ® The lab will use guidelines found in EPA Method 25C for range of recoveries and data interpretation. The lab and SCS will use the methods for the various blanks required by EPA Method 25C. Method blanks are run at a minimum of 1 per batch of 20 samples or every 24 hours, whichever is more frequent. All target analytes are required to be below the practical qualification limit(PQL). ® The lab will follow all calibration frequencies,ranges, and acceptable limits listed in EPA Method 25C. This consists of an initial calibration of at least 4 points per range (0.0010 to 1.0%, 0.50 to 100%). Percent RSD for each compound must be less than 20 percent. This calibration is performed initially and as required if continuing calibration fails. Continuing calibration is a single midpoint performed at the beginning and end of each analytical batch with each batch not to exceed 20 samples or 24 hours. Criteria are+or—20%difference for each compound of interest. Rationale for Using LFG Data from Existing LFG Collection System Section 60.754(b)(2) of the NSPS specifies that the NMOC concentration be analyzed by sampling from a common header pipe for purposes of determining when the system can be removed(i.e. NMOC< 50 Mg/yr). Therefore, the regulation allows landfills to sample from the collection system when appropriate for determining NMOC concentrations. In addition, Section 60.752(b)(2)(i)(B)allows for alternatives to any part of the regulation, including test methods (e.g., sample the flare inlet in lieu of multiple, shallow sampling probes within the refuse). The A-3 purpose of this allowance is to accommodate practical alternatives to meet the objectives of the Rule. The existing LFG collection system collects approximately 180 standard cubic feet per minute (sefin)of gas from throughout the Landfill using the extraction wells and collectors described above and with elements installed in the leachate collection system. SCS believes that collecting the Tier 2 samples from the main LFG header,upstream of the skid condensate knockout pot, will provide representative LFG samples. This approach to Tier 2 testing was approved by NCDENR for the White Street Landfill in Greensboro,NC. Also, numerous EPA Regions at a number of other landfills across the country. Copies of the approval letters are enclosed in Attachment E. V. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS LPG contains methane and therefore is potentially explosive. SCS personnel are experienced with landfill operations, LFG collection systems, and the proper sampling and handling of LFG. Standard safety precautions include refraining from smoking or creating sparks near the test site and using explosion-proof equipment. SCS will follow safety precautions outlined in EPA Method 25C. No special safety equipment is required for the test. However, all testing personnel will wear clothing appropriate for a landfill environment such as steel-toed boots and long pants. Hard hats, ear protection,and eye protection are not specifically required by the Landfill at the testing site;however, all testing personnel will have such equipment available to use, as needed based on field conditions. VI. SAMPLING LOCATIONS A site plan is provided in Attachment B. This plan shows the layout of the Landfill, LFG wells, piping, and blower flare location. Attachment C provides a representative schematic of a typical utility flare skid to indicate where sampling will occur in relation to condensate removal and vacuum equipment. VII. QA/QC MEASURES SCS will follow the QA/QC requirements of the EPA Quality Assurance Handbook,Volume 3. SCS will also follow chain-of-custody requirements of its courier(Federal Express) and its laboratory subcontractor(ATL). A sample chain of custody form from the testing laboratory is included with this submittal as Attachment F. This form will be completed by SCS personnel and shipped with the samples to the lab. A copy of this form and the full results and back-up documentation from the lab will be included in the final report to SCDHEC. i A-A i VIII. FINAL REPORT A final report will be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 62.1 Section 4 (f). The report will be submitted to NCDENR Air Quality for review.

The proposed testing is acceptable as discussed below. The source is a municipal solid waste landfill with a footprint of approximately 40 acres. A landfill gas collection and control system, consisting of 15 vertical extraction wells, lateral piping, and a 2,500 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) flare, is currently installed on Cells 1A and 1 B. Note this system does not control emissions from all areas where there is currently waste in place(Cells 1A through 1D). The testing will be performed in order to demonstrate compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW Standards of Performance for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. The regulation requires landfills with annual emissions of NMOC greater than 50 mega grams per year(Mg/yr) to install and operate a landfill gas collection and control system. Subpart WWW allows the landfill to estimate annual NMOC emissions using waste in place data and/or to conduct emissions testing to develop site-specific emission rates. Anson County Waste Management calculated Tier 1 annual NMOC emissions for the subject source using actual waste data and default parameters specified by t1SEPA. The annual emissions of NMOC were estimated to be 300 Mg/yr. Anson County Waste Management now proposes Tier 2 NMOC emissions testing of the landfill to obtain a site-specific emission rate. Testing will only be conducted on Cells 1A and 113, which is the portion of the landfill with the gas collection and control system. The waste in these cells is older than the cells not being tested and therefore is expected to have greater NMOC emissions. The emissions rate from Cells i 1A and 1B will be used to calculate annual emissions for the entire landfill. 1641 Mail Service Center,Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1641 i��One L, 1 2728 Capital Blvd.,Raleigh,North Carolina 27604 1����ggqorthCaroilna Phone: 919-733-17281 FAX 919-733-1812/Internet: www.ncaicorg at"allY An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer-50%Recycled/10%Post Consumer Paper 6/ Mr. Tyler Fitzgerald September 16, 2009 Page 2 (Anson County Waste Management, NMOC Emissions Testing of the Landfill, Polkton, NC) SES Engineers has proposed the following test methods; Target Pollutant Proposed Test Method Oxygen, Nitrogen US EPA Method 3C Determination of Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Nitrogen, and Oxygen from Stationary Sources Non-Methane Organic US EPA Method 25C Determination of Nonmethane Organic Compounds Compound (NMOC) " (NMOC)in Landfill Gases Three samples will be collected from a sampling port located at the common header of the gas collection system.

A fourth sample will be collected as a backup sample and only analyzed if a primary sample is damaged. The maximum permitted gas flow rate of the gas collection system is 300 scfm. The proposed flow rate during the test is 185 scfm, which is 62% of the maximum. The proposed rate is less than the requirement to conduct emissions testing at 90% or greater of the maximum process rate. Anson County Waste Management shall be responsible for ensuring, within the limits of practicality, that the gas collection system is operated at or near the maximum normal flow rate. The final test report should include the actual flow rate during the emission tests. In conclusion, the sampling protocol is approved.
