STATUS OF PERMIT:
A Land Clearing and Inert Debris Notification was submitted to the Solid Waste Section in January 2011. Notification
was recorded with Davie County Register of Deeds on January 2, 2011.
PURPOSE OF SITE VISIT:
Complaint Inspection
STATUS OF PAST NOTED VIOLATIONS:
1. CORRECTIVE MEASURE IN PROGRESS: 15A NCAC 13B .0566(4) states: `Adequate soil cover shall be
applied monthly, or when the active area reaches one acre in size, whichever occurs first ".
During the inspection on May 1, 2018, Mr. Charlie Bailey explained he was working diligently applying adequate
soil cover to all exposed waste. Mr. Bailey started on the northeast slope with cover and is working in a clockwise
direction around the landfill. Mr. Bailey was not aware of the location of the edge of waste markers. It was
explained to Mr. Bailey the importance for the edge of waste markers. Mr. Bailey stated that he will discuss the
edge of waste marker locations with Mr. Summers.
During the inspection on April 18, 2019, David Giachini and I spoke with Chase Hicks. Chase explained to us that
Mr. Jimmy Summers walked away from the business October 2018. I explained to Chase the reason for the
inspection and we walked around the site. Chase pointed out two edge of waste markers and I explained the

exposed waste needed to be covered. Chase called his dad William Hicks to meet us at the facility. Once Mr.
William Hicks arrived I explained the rules for cover on a notified LCID and mentioned more edge of waste
markers needed to be installed to clarify the boundary clearly. Mr. William Hicks stated he would have a surveyor
mark the two -acre boundary and provide a copy of the survey by May 18, 2019 and continue to cover the waste.
All exposed waste must be covered by at least 6" of soil by June 18, 2019.

Edge of waste markers.
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.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. Access to the site is secured by a gate.
2. The access road into the site was in good condition at the time of the inspection.
3. Ensure all edge of waste markers are visible and maintained.
4. Attached is a copy of an August 10, 2010 letter to First Citizen's Bank (FCB) noting the existing conditions of the
landfill at the time of foreclosure of the property from the previous owner, and future landfill operational conditions.
Upon acquisition of this property from FCB, an onsite meeting occurred on January 7, 2011 involving Mr. Billy
Hicks with Williams Landworks and Jason Watkins, Central District Supervisor for the Field Operations Branch,
Solid Waste Section. The notification of the landfill under Williams Landworks was filed the same day.
5. Based on site observations and through reviewing aerial photos since 2011, it appears the landfill has continued to
accept waste. Therefore, to ensure that the facility remains in compliance with the letter noted in item 4 above as
well as the rules outlined in the notification document filed with the Davie County Register of Deeds and signed by
you, please provide a copy of the original survey map of the landfill footprint that noted the disposal area was
at/near 1.99 acres by May 18, 2019. Please note that if the survey indicates that the disposal footprint exceeds the
allowed 2 acres or that buffers to property lines, etc. are not being maintained, additional actions will be required by
the facility to comply with all laws and rules.

Re: Summers LCID Landfill — N0599
Davie County, North Carolina
Dear. Mr. Schorsch:
Division of Waste Management
Solid Waste Section
Winston-Salem Regional Office
Natural Resources
Beverly Eaves Perdue, Governor
Dee Freeman, Secretary
The Solid Waste Section (Section) has been notified that First Community Bank has acquired (via foreclosure)
property previously owned by James W. III and Kim E. Summers located at 1075 Main Church Road near
Mocksville, North Carolina. The property contains a Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) Landfill, recorded
in the Davie County Registry of Deeds, Book # 461, Pages # 863-65.
Based on a site visit conducted by Section staff on July 28, 2010, the landfill was not closed in accordance with
NC Administrative Code prior to Mr. and Mrs. Summers being relieved of ownership.
During a meeting on August 2, 2010 in the Winston-Salem Regional office with Tim Latham and Matt Osborne
of the Division of Land Resources, Land Quality Section, Brent Morris with ReMax Realty and yourself, as
well as an on -site meeting on August 3, 2010, we discussed several options for the property in terms of proper
closure of the landfill and marketing the property. Based on those discussions, a request was made that I
summarize the requirements for closure and further use as it pertains to Solid Waste issues. The following will
provide that summary.
The approval to operate an LCID landfill that Mr. Summers maintained limited his total disposal area to
two (2) acres in accordance with 15A NCAC 13B .0563. On the survey provided to you, it was noted
that Mr. Summers was at/near 1.99 acres in surveyed disposal area. Therefore, the continued operation
of the current disposal area would be contingent upon approval by the Section and limited only to
acceptance of material to fill out existing slopes and potentially expand vertically if allowed by County
ordinances. The 2 acre surveyed area footprint would remain intact and only the slopes could be
extended upward. Otherwise the landfill area must be closed as described below.
Any future disposal and/or other solid waste management activity on this property would require
approval of the Section prior to beginning that activity in accordance with the statutes and rules in place
at the time of the application.

2. The procedures for proper closure of the LCID area are as follows:
a. A minimum of one foot of suitable soil must be applied to the entire disposal area.
b. All slopes must be graded to no greater than a 3:1 ratio to allow for proper drainage and long term
maintenance.
c. Establishment of a permanent stand of grass and/or other groundcover suitable to prevent erosion
must occur. Groundcover must meet the requirements of the Erosion and Sedimentation Plan on file
for this landfill.
Be advised that .0563(2)(d) requires that "when the land on which the Land Clearing and Inert Debris Landfill
is sold, leased, conveyed, or transferred in any manner, the deed or other instrument of transfer shall contain
in the description section in no smaller type than that used in the body of the deed or instrument a statement that
the property has been used as a Land Clearing and Inert Debris Landfill and a reference by book and page to the
recordation of the notification."
It is noted that some existing waste material may need to be moved to allow for placement of soil cover.
Therefore by December 3, 2010, the landfill must be properly closed in accordance with item #2 above. Please
notify this office upon completion of the activities needed for closure. As we discussed, improper closure of
a landfill would be deemed a violation of the NC Solid Waste Rules and would be subject to civil penalty
assessment of up to $15,000 per day per violation.
Should a buyer be identified prior to December 3rd, a follow-up meeting prior to closing is requested to ensure
all parties are understanding of the legal requirements of owning this property and any needed paperwork that
may need to be completed at that time.
If you have any further questions, please contact me directly at (336) 771-5092.
Sincerely,
Jason M. Watkins
