STATE HEALTH DIRECTOR April 28, 1983 On April 19, 1983, Mr. Julian Foscue, my supervisor, and I inspected the Clay County landfill. We found problems with handling waste for A.C.I. which involved the necessity of handling their waste in a separate area be- cause wire found within their waste cannot be spread and compacted with other waste due to damage which would result to the seals of track equipment. We understand that this company plans to increase production of wire which would worsen the problem. This situation can be resolved in one of two ways. Either require that all wire be brought to the landfill completely separate .from any other waste, in which case it could be placed separately from normal solid waste and covered weekly, or no longer allow A.C.I. to dispose of this wire at the landfill. If we can be of assistance, please contact me. Respectfully, gore, Jr./ (Waste Management Specialist J Z1/dgh / cc: fir.

A copy -:of that letter is attached. Mr. Moore conducted a follow-up inspection on August 8, 1983, and recorded the following violations of the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Rules: 1.

Attorney at Law Masonic Lodge Building P. 0. Box 660 Hayesville, NC 28904 Dear Mr. Patterson: This letter is in response to your request for a hearing dated October 21, 1983. The request will be forwarded to the Hearing Officer for the Division of Health Services and you will be notified of a hearing date and location. This Branch opposes your request that the hearing be held at the landfill in question. You are within your rights to request that the hearing officer view the site; however, it is this Branch's opinion that such a viewing would be irrelevant because the penalty was assessed for the condition of the site at the time of the September 20, 1983,.inspection and the present or future condition of the site is not at issue. I want to emphasize that Mr. Moore had inspected the site three times previously on June 14, 1983, July 7, 1983 and August 8, 1983 and found similar violations on all three inspections. Inspection reports were made on all three occasions and were received by George Anderson. Our records contain no letters from Mr. Anderson or anyone else claiming that these reports were erroneous. Furthermore, Clay County was requested to improve the ongoing operation of the site by letters from Mr. Moore (July 19, 1983) and Mr. Glenn Dunn (August 22, 1983), and no letters of protest were received. It is the practice of this Branch to inform landfill operators of violations and provide liberal opportunity for compliance. Such has been the case in this matter, but the Clay County landfill continued to be in violation of the operational standards according to Mr. Moore's September 20, 1983 inspection. You should receive in the near future a notice of the date, time and location of a hearing. If you have additional questions or wish to discuss the matter further, please don't hesitate to contact me at (919) 733-2178.

On June 14, 1983, July 7, 1983, and August 8, 1983, Mr. J. W. Moore, Jr., Waste Management Specialist for the North Carolina Solid and Hazardous ,Taste Management Branch, inspected the Clay County Landfill and observed two violations of the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Rules. By letter from Mr. Glenn Dunn dated August 22, 1983, you were notified of those violations and requested to correct the violations by September 5, 1983. (A copy of that letter is enclosed.) On September 20, 1983, Mr. Moore re -inspected the landfill and.observed the following violations: (1) The solid waste was not being restricted to the smallest area feasible, as required by 10 NCAC lOG .0505(3).

(3) No attendant was on duty while the landfill was open for public use, as required by 10 NCAC lOG .0505(9). The penalty assessed for the above violations is two hundred dollars ($200.00). The assessment of this administrative penalty is effective upon our mailing of this notice. Please be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130-166.21(E), each day that a violation continues constitutes a separate violation for which an additional penalty may be assessed. If the violations are not corrected by October 20, 1983, an additional penalty will be assessed for each subsequent day the -violation continues. James B Hunt, Jr Sarah T.
