Instructions:
Prepare one form for each individually monitored unit.
• Please type or print legibly.
Attach a notification table with values that attain or exceed NC 2L groundwater standards or NC 2B surface water standards. The notification
must include a preliminary analysis of the cause and significance of each value. (e.g. naturally occurring, off -site source, pre-existing
condition, etc.).
Attach a notification table of any groundwater or surface water values that equal or exceed the reporting limits.
Attach a notification table of any methane gas values that attain or exceed explosive gas levels. This includes any structures on or nearby the
facility (NCAC 138 .1629 (4)(a)(i).

RE: Burke County, East Burke Landfill,
Permit Number 12-02
Landfill Gas Monitoring Report - First Quarter of 2020
Project No. 2912621, Phase 04
Dear Miles,
LaBella Associates (LaBella) is submitting the attached methane monitoring report for the East
Burke Landfill, Permit Number 12-02. The 2020 first quarter landfill gas monitoring event was
performed on February 7, 2020. During this event, LaBella monitored seven gas probes (GP-1,
GP-1B, GP-2, GP-3, GP-4, GP-5, and GP-6). The approximate locations of the gas probes are depicted
in Drawing 1. The monitoring data for the gas probes and buildings are summarized in the attached
Landfill Gas Monitoring Data Log.
Methane was detected above the lower explosive limit (LEL) in gas probes GP-1, GP-3, and GP-4. No
methane was detected in any of the other probes. These detections and exceedances are consistent
with previous results and are summarized in Table 1 and Table 2, respectively.
We have included an EMRF and will forward a copy of this report to Jaclynne Drummond with the
NCDEQ Solid Waste Section. This report should be added to the facility's records. The next quarterly
monitoring event is scheduled for the second quarter of 2020. If we can provide any additional
information, please do not hesitate to call me at [phone].
Respectfully submitted,
LaBella Associates
