Greene County Active C&D and Closed Unlined Landfill
MESCO Project No. G16010.0
Permit No. 40-02
Event Date: September 7, 2016
Dear Ms. Drummond:
Introduction
On behalf of Greene County, Municipal Engineering Services Company, P.A. (MESCO) is pleased to present this
Semi-Annual Water Quality Report with Corrective Action Update for fall 2016 at the active Construction and
Demolition (C&D) Landfill and closed Unlined Sanitary Landfill. NCDEQ Solid Waste Rules 15ANCAC13B.1630
through .1637 requires that Greene County provide this report to the SWS on a semi-annual basis. This report
documents the quality of the ground and surface waters during this monitoring event performed on September 7, 2016.
A brief corrective action update and qualitative evaluation comparing current and historical data is also presented.
Constituents detected in concentrations above North Carolina Groundwater Standards (2L) were benzene and vinyl
chloride in sample MW-4 which is located within the compliance boundary.
Background
The Greene County Active Construction and Demolition (C&D) Landfill and Closed Unlined Sanitary Landfill is
located off Fire Tower Road (SR 1239), Walstonburg, Greene County, North Carolina and operates under permit #40-
02. A topographic map showing the facility location is included as Figure 1.
Prior to operating as a C&D landfill, the site operated as an approximate 13-acre unlined sanitary landfill which
stopped receiving waste prior to January 1, 1998 in accordance with the Greene County Transition Plan. The C&D
landfill is operating on a portion of the top of the MSW unit which are monitored together.
Water quality has been monitored at this facility on at least a semi-annual basis since 1994. MESCO submitted an
Assessment and Corrective Action (ACM) [DIN:8776] report dated August 30, 2007. MESCO then developed a
Corrective Action Plan (CAP) which was revised on February 12, 2010 (CAP-Rev. 5) [DIN:9670] and subsequently
approved on February 16, 2010 [DIN:671]. Groundwater remediation using monitored natural attenuation (MNA)
was initiated on March 30, 2010 and has continued on a semi-annual basis ever since. A Corrective Action Evaluation
Report (CAER) was submitted to the SWS on October 16, 2012 (DIN:17502) which was reviewed by the SWS and
responded to on December 6, 2012 (DIN:17837).
As specified within rule 15A NCAC 13B.1632(i), the SWS Environmental Monitoring Report Form, and SWS
memorandums this report contains sampling procedures, field and laboratory results, corrective action update,
groundwater and surface water characterization, and findings. Well construction summary table, sampling and
analysis summary table, detections compared to Standards tables, a groundwater flow directions/rates table,
potentiometric map, natural attenuation screening matrix score table, quality assurance/quality control data, and
field/laboratory analytical data results are enclosed herein.
Sampling Procedures
Environment 1 (E1) of Greenville, NC, reportedly performed this monitoring event utilizing portable monitoring
methodology in accordance with the approved Sampling & Analysis Plan (SAP) contained in the CAP-Rev.5. E1
reportedly collected groundwater samples from all locations designated in the SAP which includes five
downgradient groundwater monitoring wells (MW-4, MW-5, MW-6, MW-7 and MW-8), one background well
(MW-1R) and both surface water points (Upstream and Downstream). Quality control measures included submittal
and analysis of an equipment blank (EB), field blank (FB) and trip blank (TB). Surface water and groundwater
monitoring locations are depicted on Figure 1 and Figure 2 respectively. A summary detailing the construction of
the water monitoring wells is presented on Table 1.
Static water levels in each well were measured electronically prior to purging. Samples were transported under C-
O-C protocol and analyzed within the hold times specified for each method.
Field Parameter Data
E1 recorded the field parameters pH, specific conductance, temperature, turbidity, oxidation reduction potential
(ORP) and dissolved oxygen (DO) which are presented in the laboratory analysis report in Appendix A.
Laboratory Results
E1 performed analysis of groundwater samples for the constituents listed in Appendix II of 40 CFR 258. Both total
and dissolved metals listed in Appendix II of 40 CFR 258 were reported as requested by the SWS in the CAER
response (DIN 17837). In addition, samples from MW-4 and background well MW-1, were analyzed for the full
suite of MNA performance parameters as part of corrective action. MNA analysis was conducted for volatile fatty
acids, methane, ethane, ethene, and dissolved hydrogen by Microseeps Inc. of Pittsburgh, PA. A sampling and
analysis table summarizing the locations, constituents, and methods is presented on Table 2. Laboratory results and
C-O-Cs are contained in Appendix A.
Water samples were analyzed to the laboratory-established Method Detection Limits (MDL), which are at or below
current Solid Waste Section Limits (SWSL). Table 3 summarizes Appendix I constituents detected in groundwater
and surface water samples above the current SWSL, Groundwater Protection Standards (GWP), North Carolina
Groundwater Standards (2L), the applicable Class C North Carolina Surface Water Standards (2B) and Maximum
Contaminant Levels (MCL) also known as “Federal Primary Drinking Water Standards”. Table 4 summarizes the
few detections of tin which was the only parameter detected that is listed in Appendix II but not also listed in
Appendix I.
Quality Control Samples
Four of the seventeen (24%) targeted total metals, including tin, were detected in low non-quantifiable (“j”
qualified) concentrations in the FB. Since no metals were detected in excess of the SWSL and a regulatory
Standard, any lab or field induced artifact contamination is inconsequential.
2
Groundwater Samples
Total vanadium was detected in sample MW-7 at 6.6 ug/L which is above the GWP Standard (3.5 ug/L) but below
the SWSL (25 ug/L) thus “j-qualified”. Dissolved phase vanadium was not detected in sample MW-7.
Sample MW-4 contained the VOCs benzene (2.6 ug/L) and vinyl chloride (1.8 ug/L) which are above their
respective 2L Standards (1.0 ug/L and 0.03 ug/L). These VOCs have consistently been detected in concentrations
above their respective 2L Standards in samples collected from MW-4 since the detection levels were reduced in
March 2007.
Tin, the only Appendix II exclusive parameter, defined in this report as not also listed in Appendix I, was detected in
sample MW-8 below the SWSL, below the applicable regulatory compliance Standard and lower than in the quality
control blanks EB and FB.
A site map spatially depicting contaminants detected in excess of the 2L Standard during this event is presented on
Figure 2.
Surface Water Samples
No constituents were detected in excess of applicable 2B Standard in the surface water sample collected upstream or
downstream of the facility.
Groundwater Characterization
A single-day potentiometric map of the uppermost aquifer is presented on Figure 2, using ground water elevation
data reported by E1 for this event. Reported groundwater elevations were all within their respective historically
identified range. Groundwater flow direction and rates were calculated based on reported data and are included in
Table 5. Estimated flow flow rates during this event, quantified through modified Darcy's equation, ranged from
about 4 ft/yr (MW-4) to 281 ft/yr (MW-8) for a site-wide average of approximately 71 ft/yr.
Corrective Action Update
Semi-annual MNA monitoring of MW-4 was initiated on March 30, 2010 and has consistently been performed for
the full suite of SWS recommended parameters for 14 consecutive semi-annual events. The most recent MNA data
is presented in Table 5. The MNA data for this event at MW-4 was entered into the Biochlor natural attenuation
screening protocol matrix developed by the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The screening matrix
score for this event was 18 which is between 15-20 which the USEPA interprets as adequate evidence of anaerobic
biodegredation of chlorinated organics (Figure 3). Interpretation of geochemical data indicates that most of the
biodegredation capacity near MW-4 is due to methanogensis, the final terminal electron acceptor, which should
degrade the chlorinated solvents.
Findings
The laboratory results indicate the uppermost aquifer near MW-4 remains impacted by low level dissolved phase
Appendix I VOC(s) in concentrations above the 2L Standard. Quantitative evaluations reveal concentrations of
constituents detected above the 2L Standard during this event remain within their own respective historically
identified range and an increasing trend is not evident.
