1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Ten monitoring wells and two stream locations at the Rutherford County South Landfill were
sampled on May 5, 2017. All sampling was conducted according to North Carolina Solid Waste
Management Guidelines. The samples were submitted to a North Carolina certified laboratory and
tested for the Federal Appendix I list of volatile organic constituents for detection monitoring and
the eight RCRA metals.
Results from the monitoring well sample analyses show that the concentrations of five RCRA
metals (arsenic in 8102-MW-2A and 8102-MW-3; barium in 8102-MW-1 and 8102-MW-3;
chromium in 8102-MW-1, 8102-MW-2A, 8102-MW-3, 8102-MW-4A, 8102-MW-5, 8102-MW-7,
and 8102-MW-9S; lead in 8102-MW-1, 8102-MW-2A, 8102-MW-3, 8102-MW-5, 8102-MW-7,
and 8102-MW-9S; and mercury in 8102-MW-1 and 8102-MW-8) exceeded the 15A NCAC 2L (2L)
Standard for Class GA groundwater on the date that the samples were collected. Barium,
cadmium, chromium, lead, and mercury were detected in one or more of the monitoring well
samples at concentrations that did not exceed the 2L Standards.
Results from the monitoring well sample analyses show that the concentrations of five Appendix I
volatile organic constituents (1,1-dichloroethane in 8102-MW-1; 1,2-dichloroethane in 8102-MW-
1; benzene in 8102-MW-1 and 8102-MW-6; methylene chloride in 8102-MW-1; and vinyl chloride
in 8102-MW-2A, 8102-MW-5, and 8102-MW-6) exceeded the 2L Standards on the date that the
samples were collected. Fourteen Appendix I volatile organic constituents (1,1-dichloroethane;
1,1-dichloroethene; 1,2-dichlorobenzene; 1,4-diclorobenzene; benzene; carbon disulfide;
chlorobenzene; chloroethane; chloroform; cis-1,2-dichloroethene; methylene chloride;
tetrachloroethene; total xylenes; and trichloroethene) were detected in one or more of the
monitoring well samples at concentrations that did not exceed the 2L or NC Groundwater
Protection (NCGP) Standards.
May 2017 Sampling Report June 17, 2016

One RCRA metal (mercury in 8102-SW-1 and 8102-SW-2) was detected at concentrations that
exceeded the 15A NCAC 2B Standard for Class B/C Surface Waters (2B) in the surface water
samples collected from the creek that flows along the northeast boundary of the landfill property.
One RCRA metal (silver in 8102-SW-1) was detected at a concentration that exceeded the
recommended Action Level. One RCRA metal that does not have an established 2B standard
(barium) was detected in both surface water samples. Two RCRA metals (cadmium and
chromium) were detected in both surface water samples at concentrations below the 2B Standards.
No Appendix I volatile organic constituents were detected at in either surface water sample.
2.0 INTRODUCTION
Scarlett Geophysical Consulting, P.C. (SGC) was contracted by Rutherford County, North
Carolina, to sample the ground and surface water at ten monitoring well and two surface water
locations on or adjacent to the South Landfill property. The site location is shown on Figure 1.
3.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work for this sampling event was to sample ten monitoring wells and two stream
locations for Federal Appendix I volatile organic constituents as listed in 40 CFR, Part 258, and the
eight RCRA metals, and to prepare and submit reports to the client and NC Division of Solid
Waste Management documenting the sample collection procedures and analytical results.
4.0 METHODS EMPLOYED
4.1 Monitoring Well Sampling
Groundwater sampling took place on May 5, 2017. Water levels were measured in each well to
provide data for water volume calculations (Table 1). The wells were then purged by removing a
minimum of three well volumes or bailing the wells dry prior to obtaining water samples. The
water samples were collected using properly decontaminated Teflon bailers. Immediately upon
collection, the water samples were field tested for temperature, specific conductance, and pH.
May 2017 Sampling Report June 17, 2016
Rutherford County South Landfill Page 3
These data are summarized in Table 2. Field data sheets are included as Appendix A. S amples
were placed in laboratory cleaned and supplied containers, packed on ice, and placed under chain -
of-custody. Samples were shipped to the laboratory under chain-of-custody upon completion of
the field work. Analyses were conducted by Research & Analytical Laboratories, Inc., a North
Carolina certified laboratory. The monitoring well locations are shown on Figure 2.
4.2 Stream Sampling
Surface water sampling took place on May 5, 2017. Samples 8102-SW-1 and 8102-SW-2 were
collected from a stream that flows southeastward along the northeast boundary of the South
Landfill property. This stream flows into the Second Broad River, which bounds the landfill to the
east. All stream samples were analyzed for the same parameters as the ground water samples. The
stream sample locations are shown on Figure 2.
5.0 RESULTS
The results of the laboratory analyses are summarized in Tables 3 and 4, and the complete
laboratory reports are included as Appendix B.

The following constituents were detected in one or more of the wells at concentrations above the
method detection limits (MDL) but below the 2L or NCGP Standards. The analytical results are
documented in Table 3 and Table 4. Results that were above the MDL but below the Solid Waste
Section Limit (SWSL) are identified as estimated (J) values in the laboratory data (Appendix B)
and in Tables 3, 4, and 5.

• Lead
• Mercury
• 1,1-Dichloroethane

The volatile organic constituents present in the groundwater samples are likely due to past waste
disposal; however, contributions by ongoing farming activities immediately north and south of the
old property boundaries and vehicles involved in active maintenance of the landfill cover cannot be
ruled out. Groundwater flow direction data indicate that all groundwater from the disposal area is
intercepted by perennial streams to the north, south, and east. There is no evidence indicating that
volatile organic constituent concentrations resulting from waste disposal at South Landfill
currently exceed the 2L or NCGP Standards at locations beyond the property boundaries. The
interval since the last waste disposal suggests that significant impacts on groundwater
contamination from the source area are unlikely to increase in the future.
The inorganic constituents present in the groundwater samples may be influenced by past waste
disposal, but it is likely that local geology has an impact. 8102-MW-4A, which is upgradient from
the waste disposal area (see Figure 2), shows minimal volatile organic impact, yet historically has
shown inorganic constituent concentrations similar to those in the downgradient monitoring wells.
The presence of measurable concentrations of barium, cadmium, chromium, mercury, and silver in
the upgradient surface water sample for this event in addition to lead and selenium during prior
events suggests the likely influence of contributions from off site sources (lo cal geological and/or
cultural). Concentrations for barium, chromium, lead, and mercury were higher than the historic
averages in several wells. The extended dry period followed by prolonged heavy precipitation may
have caused some localized anomalies in shallow groundwater movement or the data may be

indicative of changes in the source/groundwater interaction at the site. These data will be further
evaluated when the Fall 2017 and Spring 2018 samples are analyzed.
5.2 Surface Water
The surface water sample analyses revealed one constituent with concentrations above the 2B
Standard and one constituent with a concentration above the Recommended Action Level. These
analytical results are listed below and shown in the Notification Table (Table 5).
• Mercury was detected in 8102-SW-1 at 0.06 ppb and 8102-SW-2 at 0.04 ppb. The 2B
Standard is 0.012 ppb.
• Silver was detected in 8102-SW-1 at 3.4 ppb. The Recommended Action Level is 0.06
ppb.
One RCRA metal (listed below) for which no standard has been established was detected at a
concentration above the MDL and below the Solid Waste Section limit.
• Barium concentrations exceeded the MDL (1.1 ppb) in 8102-SW-1 and 8102-SW-2. No 2B
Standard has been established for barium.
Two constituents were detected in the surface water samples at concentrations above the method
detection limits (MDL) but below the 2B Standards. Results that were above the MDL but below
the Solid Waste Section Limit (SWSL) are identified as estimated (J) values in the laboratory d ata
(Appendix B) and in Tables 3 and 5.
• Cadmium concentration exceeded the MDL (0.2 ppb), but was below the 2B Standard (2.0
ppb), in 8102-SW-1 and 8102-SW-2.
• Chromium concentration exceeded the MDL (0.7 ppb), but was below the 2B Standard
(50.0 ppb), in 8102-SW-1 and 8102-SW-2.
No volatile organic constituents were detected in either of the surface water samples.
