12. The landfill access roads are constructed of concrete, asphalt and gravel and were in good condition at the time
of inspection.
13. The Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) Disposal Area is located on the east side of the facility. The facility
received asbestos in January and April 2019. The ACM area was observed to have good soil and groundcover
and was well managed at the time of inspection.
14. Edge of Waste Markers (EOW) were installed on all fill areas of the landfill.
15. Closed areas F, G, & H were observed to have good vegetative cover and are cut for hay by local farmers. The
areas had not been cut at the time of inspection due to wet weather.
16. The facility has three interconnected leachate ponds located to the south of Area B — Lower and no visual
deficiencies were observed. The facility was pumping leachate and there was approximately six feet of
freeboard at the time of inspection. Roughly one third of the leachate in the pond closest to the pump house had
a pink tint. Facility staff stated that the color was due to iron content.
17. The facility is currently filling fly ash from multi -boilers, lime waste, wastewater treatment plant sludge, wood
waste debris and cinders in Area D. Multiple working faces were being utilized at the time of inspection
depending on the consistency of material.
