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 13B .1629 (4)(a)(i).
• Send the original signed and sealed form, any tables, and Electronic Data Deliverable to: Compliance Unit, NCDENR-DWM, Solid Waste

values and explosive methane gas limits.
Certification
To the best of my knowledge, the information reported and statements made on this data submittal and attachments are true and correct.
Furthermore, I have attached complete notification of any sampling values meeting or exceeding groundwater standards or explosive gas
levels, and a preliminary analysis of the cause and significance of concentrations exceeding groundwater standards. I am aware that there
are significant penalties for making any false statement, representation, or certification including the possibility of a fine and imprisonment.

RE: Burke County, Johns River Landfill
Permit Number 12-03
Third Quarterly Landfill Gas Monitoring Report of 2019
Project No. 2192621
Dear Mr. Champion:
On behalf of Burke County, North Carolina, LaBella Associates (LABELLA) is submitting the attached
methane monitoring results for Johns River Landfill, Permit Number 12-03. The 2019 Third quarter
landfill gas monitoring event was performed on August 28, 2019.
During this event, gas probes GP-1S, GP-1D, GP-2S, GP-21, GP-2D, GP-4, GP-5, GP-6, GP-7, and GP-8
were monitored in accordance with the facility's Landfill Gas Monitoring Plan. Additionally, gas
monitoring points GMP-1 through GMP-7, GMP-7A, GMP-8, GMP-9, GMP-10, GMP-11, GMP-12,
GMP-13 and GMP-14 were monitored. GP-3S and GP-3D were abandoned in February 2018 for
construction of new landfill Phases 2A and 4. The locations of the gas probes and monitoring points
are depicted in Drawing 1. The monitoring data for the gas probes and buildings are summarized in
the attached Landfill Gas Monitoring Data Logs.
Methane was detected above the lower explosive limit (LEL) in gas probes GP-2S, GP-21, GP-2D, GP-4
and GP-5. Gas probes GP-2S, GP-21, and GP-2D are a nested set located in close proximity to waste
in the old C&D-over-MSW landfill and are not considered boundary probes. GP-4 is located between
the two landfills and is also not a boundary probe. GP-5 was in exceedance of the LEL for the third
time during this event. GP-5 is located over 500 feet from the nearest property boundary, and since
it is only slightly above the LEL, it is unlikely to indicate an exceedance at the property boundary. GP-
5 is located next to a building which was monitored but showed no methane detections.
In attempt to monitor gas probes for hydrogen sulfide, most gas probes were reading low or non -
detect; however possible calibration error was noted. Therefore, we did not include those results in
this report.
No exceedances were recorded for any of the other probes, monitoring points, or structures.
Respectively, the methane detections and exceedances are summarized in Table 1 and Table 2.
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 tentatively scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2019. If we can provide any
additional information please do not hesitate to call me at [phone].
