Cell 3A is rectangular in shape as illustrated in Figure 2. Site preparation for Cell 3A began in early January 2019. Site preparation activities began in the northern portion of the cell. Site preparation activities consisted of the following:  Stripping of vegetation and topsoil.  Excavation of overburden soil materials to meet excavation grades.  In a small area of the cell, a hydraulic hammer was used to remove bedrock formations to a depth of at least 4 feet below top of structural fill design elevations. Following the mass excavation and hammering activities, the cell subgrade surface was surveyed by Survey Carolina, PLLC. This information was reviewed by SCS to verify that there was at least a 4-ft separation between exposed bedrock and the top of structural fill design elevations. Following this review, the cell floor was proof-rolled to verify suitable foundation for the placement of structural fill.

STRUCTURAL FILL LABORATORY TESTING 3.1 Structural fill (designated as “Type S1” in the Technical Specifications) material was stockpiled on site during the site preparation and subgrade construction activities. Prior to placement, quality assurance soil samples were obtained by SCS. Ten bulk samples of structural fill material were collected (SF-1 through SF-9 and SF-1-18) from on site; SF-1-18 was collected and laboratory tested during Cell 2 construction in 2018. Nine of the bulk samples were transported to the geotechnical laboratory at Geotechnics located in Raleigh, North Carolina. One sample (SF-7) was shipped to TRI Environmental, Inc. (TRI) located in Austin, Texas. The following tests were performed:  Natural Moisture Content (ASTM D2216)  Atterberg Limits (ASTM D4318)  Standard Proctor (ASTM D698)  Particle Size Analysis (ASTM D6913)(D422 old version) The samples collected were classified according to USCS as CL or ML with maximum dry density (MDD) ranging from 97.5 to 121.3 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). The results of the standard Proctor test, Atterberg Limits, and natural moisture content tests are summarized in Table 1. The complete laboratory test results are provided in Appendix A-1. Testing the placement of structural fill for Cell 3A was performed in accordance with the CQA Plan and Technical Specifications at a frequency of one test per 10,000 cubic yards (CY). Over the 8.46-acre cell footprint, the depth of structural fill ranged from 1 to 5 feet, averaging an estimated 2 feet. Therefore, we estimate approximately 27,400 CY of structural fill was placed and compacted to construct the subgrade. Based on this volume, a minimum of three (3) bulk structural fill samples are needed to satisfy the sampling frequencies in the CQA Plan and Technical Specifications. As stated above, ten (10) bulk soil samples were collected. Cell 3A Construction Certification Report Great Oak Landfill www.scsengineers.com 9 Table 1.

The structural fill layer was constructed in several lifts ranging from 6-inch to 10-inch thick (loose measure). Placement and compaction of the structural fill layer was achieved using the following equipment:  Cat D6N (GPS) Dozer  Volvo 380 Excavator  Volvo 250 Excavator  John Deere 470 Excavator  Volvo A40G Articulating Truck  Catepillar 12M2 Motor Grader  Volvo SD115B Sheepsfoot Compactor  Volvo SD115B Smooth Drum Compactor Structural Fill Field Testing 3.2.1 Structural fill materials within the footprint of Cell 3A were compacted to a density of at least 95 percent of the standard Proctor density (ASTM D698). The in-place compaction (density) and moisture content of structural fill material was monitored and tested in accordance with the CQA Plan in accordance with ASTM D2922 and D3017 (Nuclear Gauge). Field density testing was performed at a minimum frequency of 1 test per 1,500 cubic yards for placement of structural fill in accordance with the CQA Plan. Testing was performed by SCS’s subcontracted geotechnical testing firm Atlantic Coast Consulting, Inc. (ACC). A total of 37 density tests (SF-1 to SF-37) were conducted using a nuclear gage. Cell 3A Construction Certification Report Great Oak Landfill www.scsengineers.com 10 Results of the field density testing for the structural fill material are provided in Appendix A-2. Based on these results, all structural fill materials were placed in accordance with the Technical Specifications and CQA Plan. It should be noted that some density tests indicated a moisture content above 3 percent of optimum. These tests however were approved by the CQA Certifying Engineer. An as-built survey drawing of the Top of Structural Fill was produced by Survey Carolina, PLLC. This survey shows that the subgrade and structural fill elevations reached prior to installation of the leak detection zone (secondary geomembrane liner and geocomposite), and the approximate locations of soil compaction testing. The as-built drawing is located in Appendix J. Subgrade Certification and Bedrock Separation 3.2.2 In accordance with the Landfill’s Permit to Construct, No. 7607-MSWLF-2015, Part I, Condition 7, the subgrade was inspected by a licensed geologist prior to any placement of structural fill. Based on these inspections and review of survey data, it was concluded that the 4-ft separation from bedrock was achieved, where bedrock was observed. A report (May 31, 2019) summarizing the subgrade certifications was prepared and submitted to NCDEQ for Cell 3A. A copy of this report is provided in Appendix B. Cell 3A Construction Certification Report Great Oak Landfill www.scsengineers.com 11 HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE (HDPE) GEOMEMBRANE 4.0 LINER SCS and its subcontracted consultant (ACC) provided full-time monitoring and testing for the installa- tion of the 60-mil HDPE geomembrane liners for the Cell 3A project. As previously stated, there are three layers of geomembrane liners on this project – secondary, primary, and tertiary. The 60-mil HDPE geomembrane (Super GripNet) was supplied by Agru-America, Inc. and included 104 rolls. Installation of the HDPE geomembrane liner was performed by Environmental Services, Inc. (ESI). Cell 3A will include approximately 818,738 square feet (sf) of geomembrane liner (secondary, primary, and tertiary). MANUFACTURER’S QUALITY CONTROL TESTING 4.1 In accordance with Table 0519.16A in the Technical Specifications, the following manufacturer’s quality control (MQC) testing was performed on the HDPE geomembrane liner:  Thickness (ASTM D5994)  Asperity Height (ASTM D7466)  Density (ASTM D792)  Tensile Properties (ASTM D6693)  Tear Resistance (ASTM D1004)  Puncture Resistance (ASTM D4833)  Stress Crack Resistance (ASTM D5397)  Carbon Black Content (ASTM D4218)  Carbon Black Dispersion (ASTM D5596)  Oxidative Induction Time (ASTM D5885)  Oven Aging (ASTM D5721) The above tests were performed on each roll with the exception of stress crack resistance (which is one test per lot), and oxidation induction time (OIT) and oven aging (which is discussed below). The manufacturer provided a certification letter for OIT, oven aging, and Ultraviolet (UV) resistance. The October 31, 2017 certification letter from Chevron Phillips illustrates that the HP-OIT, Oven Aging and UV aging test results meet the durability requirements of the geomembrane to be used at Great Oak Landfill using the same resin identified as Marlex K307 Polyethylene. As shown in Appendix C-1, one of the resin types used is shown as Marlex K307 Polyethylene by Chevron Phillips. Based on Note 12 in Table 1 in the CQA Plan, pages 48-49, the manufacturer may provide certification letter to show meeting durability requirements when using the same resin type, even when the roll or lot number tested previously differs from the geomembrane roll list provided for Great Oak Landfill. Therefore, the information included in Appendix C-1 is acceptable. The project specification calls for textured geomembrane. However, for the oven aging and UV aging test, there is no difference in the test result, whether it is smooth or textured portion of geomembrane being used in the test, so long as the resin type is the same. It is the basis of why TRI certification letter was accepted. The MQC test results were reviewed by SCS; and based on our review, the HDPE geomembrane liner met or exceeded the project requirements. A copy of the MQC certifications and resin testing is included in Appendix C-1. Cell 3A Construction Certification Report Great Oak Landfill www.scsengineers.com 12 QUALITY ASSURANCE MATERIAL TESTING 4.2 Following review and approval of the HDPE geomembrane liner MQC test results, material samples were shipped from Agru to Waste Management’s third party geosynthetics testing laboratory, TRI, for quality assurance (QA) testing. QA conformance sampling and testing for the HDPE geomembrane liner was conducted in accordance with the CQA Plan. Testing was conducted at a frequency of one test per 100,000 sf of liner. Fourteen (14) rolls of HDPE geomembrane liner were sampled and sent to TRI. The following tests were performed by TRI located in Austin, Texas:  Thickness (ASTM D5994)  Asperity Height (ASTM D7466)  Density (ASTM D1505)  Tensile Properties (ASTM D6693)  Puncture Resistance (ASTM D4833)  Carbon Black Content (ASTM D4218)  Carbon Black Dispersion (ASTM D5596) A copy of the QA conformance testing results from TRI is included in Appendix C-2. These results indicate the 60-mil HDPE geomembrane meet or exceed the requirements of the project specifications and CQA Plan. HDPE GEOMEMBRANE PANEL DEPLOYMENT 4.3 Geomembrane liner deployment began on the southwest slope of Cell 3A. HDPE geomembrane panels were deployed using a boom and spear mounted on a front end loader; pulling the sheet off of the roll using an ATV four-wheeler and manpower. The secondary liner geomembrane panels were deployed directly on top of the structural fill or prepared subgrade. The subgrade was inspected by CQA personnel and ESI personnel and approved for liner acceptance by ESI prior to deployment. Certificate of Acceptance of Soil Subgrade forms are provided in Appendix C-5. Each panel was inspected by CQA personnel during deployment, assigned a sequential panel number and measured for dimensions. Deployments of secondary liner HDPE geomembrane panels started May 29, 2019 and were completed on June 5, 2019. Deployments of primary liner HDPE geomembrane panels started June 4, 2019 and were completed on June 20, 2019. Deployment of tertiary liner HDPE geomembrane panels started June 24, 2019 was completed on June 26, 2019. The Geomembrane Panel Deployment Logs and Geosynthetics Installation Monitoring Reports are included in Appendix C-4. HDPE GEOMEMBRANE PANEL SEAMING AND NON-4.4 DESTRUCTIVE SEAM TESTING At the beginning of each work day during HDPE geomembrane installation, trial seams were performed (fusion and/or extrusion) to test the integrity of the welding machine and welding technician. Following completion of the trial seams, destructive testing specimens were cut from the trial seams and tested using the Installer’s tensiometer. Specimens were tested for peel adhesion and for shear strength. In order to accept a trial seam, the failure mode for both peel adhesion and bonded shear strength must be Film Tear Bond (FTB). Subsequent trial seams were performed Cell 3A Construction Certification Report Great Oak Landfill www.scsengineers.com 13 throughout the day for approximately every 4 hours of seaming or if a new welder or technician was used. A copy of the Geomembrane Trial Weld Log is included in Appendix C-5. CQA personnel provided full-time monitoring during seaming of HDPE geomembrane panels. The majority of field seaming was accomplished using double hot wedge fusion welding equipment and techniques. Each seam was assigned a sequential number in accordance with the project specifications. A copy of the Geomembrane Seam Log is included in Appendix C-5. SCS provided full- time monitoring for non-destructive testing of field seams; air pressure testing for double hot wedge fusion welds and vacuum box testing for extrusion welds. The Non-Destructive Test Logs documenting non-destructive seam testing results are provided in Appendix C-5. The perimeter of the primary liner was extrusion welded to the secondary liner. The perimeter of the tertiary liner was welded to the primary liner. DESTRUCTIVE SEAM TESTING 4.5 Destructive testing of the field seams was performed on each panel seam at approximately 500-foot intervals for each welding machine. Field destructive samples were obtained in accordance with the specifications at locations selected by the Geosynthetics’ CQA Monitor. Laboratory testing of the destructive test samples was conducted by TRI. The locations of the destructive samples were determined by ACC and are shown on the Geomembrane Repair and Destructive Seam Location Plan in Appendix C-6. Four 1-inch wide specimens were taken from each destructive test sample (two from each end) in the field and tested using the Installer’s tensiometer for Peel and Shear Strength, using FTB and passing criteria. Table 2 summarizes the destructive seam testing frequencies and seam lengths. Table 2.

Four additional destructive tests were conducted around each of the failed tests. The additional tests are designated at DXS-3A1, DXS-3B1, DXS-9A1, and DXS-9B1, each of the additional tests passed. A copy of the laboratory destructive testing results is included in Appendix C-3. REPAIRS 4.6 Repairs were performed during the HDPE geomembrane installation. The majority of the repairs were performed at panel corner intersections and at destructive testing sample locations. Documentation of the repair size, repair type (patch, cap strip) and non-destructive testing results is included on the Geomembrane Defect Log, Geomembrane Repair Log, and Geomembrane Repair Vacuum Test Log provided in Appendix C-4. All repairs were monitored and tested in accordance with the CQA Plan and Technical Specifications. Record drawings for the secondary, primary, and tertiary liners showing the locations of HDPE geomembrane panels, seams, and location of destructive tests are included in Appendix C-5. Cell 3A Construction Certification Report Great Oak Landfill www.scsengineers.com 14 GEOCOMPOSITE 5.0 SCS CQA monitoring personnel provided full-time monitoring and inspection for the geocomposite materials and installation. The leak detection geocomposite was manufactured by Agru (8-200-8), and the leachate collection geocomposite material was manufactured by Skaps Industries TN-350-2-8. The geocomposite is comprised of an HDPE geonet core in between two layers of 8-ounce geotextile. Installation was performed by ESI.

Temperatures, reported in degrees Fahrenheit, ranged from the low 60’s to mid 70’s in the mornings, and upper 70’s to mid 90’s in the afternoons. Approximately 0.4 inches of rain was reported in Asheboro, NC and surrounding areas during this time period. Summary of Work: From 7/29/2019 thru 8/01/2019: New Generation Grading (NGG) continued placing protective cover (PC) soil inside Cell 3A using screened material per the specification. NGG also continued screening additional PC soil. NGG piping subcontractor was onsite to continue construction of leachate collection system (LCS) piping. From 8/02/2019 thru 8/04/2019: NGG equipment problems caused a delay in PC placement in Cell 3A. NGG continued screening protective cover material, material was stockpiled in preparation for placement on 8/06/2019. Also during this time NGG continued work on the stormwater piping outside of Cell 3A. From 8/06/2019 thru 8/07/2019: New Generation Grading (NGG) continued placing protective cover (PC) soil inside Cell 3A using screened material per the specification. Construction of the intermediate soil berm, separating future Cell 3B from Cell 3A, began during this period. NGG also continued screening additional PC soil. NGG continued placement of drainage aggregate around the LCS piping per specification. NGG piping subcontractor welded 3/6-inch dual contained forcemain piping in preparation for installation outside of Cell 3A at a later date. On 8/08/2019: NGG continued construction of the intermediate berm per the design and specification. Due to weather delays and screening equipment breakdowns, NGG purchased screened material from Martin Marietta Rock quarry in Asheboro, NC. An additional PC soil sample was collected and sent to SCS 3rd party laboratory for testing. NGG piping subcontractor continued placement of LCS piping in Cell 3A. All LCS piping was installed with 8 oz. geotextile fabric wrap per design and specification. From 8/09/2019 thru 8/10/2019: NGG completed construction of the intermediate berm per the design and specification. After completion of the temporary intermediate berm, the previously installed HDPE rain flap panels were laid over top of the soil berm. The HDPE rain flap was anchored into the PC soil berm per design and specification, seams were left uncovered to allow for extrusion welding at a later date. NGG piping subcontractor continued placement of LCS piping in Cell 3A. All LCS piping was installed with 8 oz. geotextile fabric wrap per design and specification. NGG continued placement of drainage aggregate around the LCS piping. .
