OBSERVED VIOLATIONS: No new violations were observed. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS 1. GWM-9A, the flush-mount groundwater monitoring well located adjacent to the access roadway on the north side of the active landfill, was inspected. During previous inspections, this well could not be located. Mr. Brushwood stated that staff had located the well using a metal detector. The well was observed to be in good repair. County staff had mown the area surrounding the well, and had also marked the location with orange cones to ensure that it would not be damaged during mowing or maintenance operations. 2. The slopes of the active landfill were observed from the perimeter access roadway and found to be in good condition. One small area of the southern slope had erosion rills from the heavy rains that resulted from Hurricane Florence. Mr. Brushwood stated that this was the last area requiring repair from the storm. He explained that staff had been proactive ahead of the storm, and that this had been helpful in limiting the damage to the slopes. 3. Access roadways were found to be in good condition, with only a few small areas where ruts had developed. Mr. Brushwood stated that, again, staff had been working proactively to keep up with the repairs necessitated by the storm water damage and the heavy truck traffic going in and out of the facility. 4. Windblown litter was also observed to be well-controlled. A small amount of trash was observed just below the working face, and Mr. Brushwood stated that the temporary worker assigned to do litter pick-up would be taking care of that before the end of the day. The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22, an administrative penalty of up to $15,000 per day may be assessed for each violation of the Solid Waste Laws, Regulations, Conditions of a Permit, or Order under Article 9 of Chapter 130A of the N.C. General Statutes. Further, the facility and/or all responsible parties may also be subject to enforcement actions including penalties, injunction from operation of a solid waste management facility or a solid waste collection service and any such further relief as may be necessary to achieve compliance with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Act and Rules.
