I) L"oration: Anson Coonly Waste Management Facility is located at 375 Allied Rd, near I ollcton,NC:
Anson;Coutity,
Directions: Froni FRO,jakeRaeford Load; Hwy 401 south to Wagram, 32 Wailes.'lustpast
Wagram, turn right onto Old Wire Road,(SR 744) to Laurel Hill. Turn-right(west) on Highway74
>and g6,approx 41 mites. Turn right b6tween"NO DMA office building:and bridge ovef'Brown Creek. -
Go approx�0,4 mile and the landfill office is on the right.
,Safety'"I{cl nel, safety boots and safety vest is 1"Naired-wheh'near the working face-of the landfill -
�" The principal hazardsare from ta'iack traffic'and falls/spraiits from walking;on"the uneven grout tt,,
2) Dpseriptlon,Anson County Waste Management Facility(ACWMF) is a awhieipalsolid waste
(MSW i'landfill. ,The facility,was not regilir¢cl to iavo u permit because 2Q .6102(c)(1)(K) exempts
MSW-LF from-air permit until Title V threshold as reactied,or exceeded. ACWMF applied fora`
synfGetic minor permit to install"and operate a landfill;gas capture and control system}with a
candlestick flare.
ACWMF first accepted waste in(Y 2001.-,During CX2012, the amount of in plaeo waste is projected to exceed both 2.5 million megagrams and 2.5 inihiort cubic moteas. Ilowevet;when these limits arc "
exceeded in an operational permit(PTO)issued by NO Solid Waste,the facility ryust,apply within 90
days for a Title V air permit: Presently AC,VJMF has a,solid waste permit to construct(PT.C) for a
-- capacity of4.67 n"' yd3:,NOTL+: I"yd3—10.7646,W and 1�ton=0.9072 MR. The next issued SW"
PTO will most likely initicate the Wpermit roquir6ments and NSPS WW W and,MACT AAAA
requirements. The,facility alreadylias a gas collection and control system;(GCCS)required by NSPS
W WW. Faeility,ch4se to install a GCCS;bef6ic the required date.,This allowed them to buil&carbon

5), Preinspection Conference: On,24 Juty 2009,t,Mitchell'Revels'ruet with the complianee contact,I
Tyter Fitzgerald; We discussed the following: ,
a) Verified the contacts based on FAC INDER printout,
- b) ,'We discussed the desigtr capacity of the facility and the TV.perinit-roquircnients when
uiodification;of SW,PTQ increases t¢or greater than 2.5-MM,cuhic meters and2.5 MM Mg.
c) We discussed that facility presently holds astateonly permit,
A The,faedity is itr the proee$s,of an ownership change.
Cs) Inspection Summary: Mr.T,itzge,ratd and I,Mitchell Revels tour the LF, The flare was observed .
. ,operating with no opacity above S%; Mr.Fitzgerald indicated that the control�systcm is engineered to
i 'cluse,and-not vent to atmosphere(bypassing control,device) during flare downtime:-.This was verified
1 by obserying.the physicaldcsign.of the system (no bypass vent and auto shut-off valve)."The,
wellheads,appeared to be well mairrtained and no LE gas odor.was detected,,a good indication"of' no
leaks. The,LF flow recorder was observed"and recordhtg'around 200 ofin..: l indicated that when the
GCCS is;requh•ed by T4SPS the complete system-will need to meet a
all regrurcrneuts and gas flow
recording is included as requirement. Presently the facility holds apermit-for the flare,however
when Title V N,SPS WW W and,NESIL P AAAA;requirement began the facihty,will need to comply"
accordingly,
