Meyer Director Subject: One Time Disposal of One Ton of Waste Water Treatment Sludge at the Clay County Landfill (Permit #22-01) Dear Mr. Williams: The Solid Waste Management Division has received a request for characterization of the subject waste. Based upon the submitted information, the waste is non -hazardous. The Solid Waste Management Division has no objection to the sanitary landfill disposal of the waste if in accordance with the conditions listed below. 1. The owner/operator of the landfill approves the disposal. 2. The waste contains no -free liquids. 3. The sludge is used as a soil conditioner and incorporated within the final two feet of earthen cover at agricultural rates. 4. Approval for sanitary landfill disposal is explicitly limited to a "one-time" basis. Further approval by this office will require submittal of a new Waste Determination form, and (if applicable), new analytical data. The landfill may place limits on the amount of sludge received based upon available capacity and weather conditions. Failure to meet these conditions may result in revocation of this approval and subsequently, an administrative penalty. If you have further questions concerning this matter, please contact this office at (919) 733-0692. cc: James Patterson Calvin Ashley Sincerely, e William R.

This permit is issued for a period not to exceed five years from the date of issuance. Upcoming amendments to the solid waste management rules, in accordance with EPA Subtitle D revisions, may necessitate the modification of the construction and operation plans or even closure of this facility prior to that date. CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION 1. This permit is for construction according to the attached plans with the following conditions: a. The least permeable soil, as identified in the engineering report, will be stockpiled and utilized for final cover. Additional conditions and revisions of the approved plans shall be approved by the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Division. 2. All sedimentation/erosion control activities will be conducted in accordance with the Sedimentation Control Act (15 NCAC 4). 3. A closure and post -closure plan must be submitted for approval at least 90 days prior to closure or partial closure. The plan must include all steps and measures necessary to close and maintain the facility in accordance with all rules in effect at that time. The final cover will be evaluated based upon performance and upgraded if necessary. MONITORING REQUIREMENTS 1. One additional ground water monitoring well shall be located as shown on the construction plans. Existing MW #1 will be replaced in accordance with construction standards included in the Water Quality Guidance Document. a. The location of the wells shall be verified in the field and approved by the Solid Waste Management Division (SWMD) prior to the well being constructed. Conditions of Permit Page 2 b. Installation shall conform to SWMD well standard (Attachment 1). C. A well completion record shall be submitted to SWMD for each well constructed (Attachment 2) within 30 days upon completion. 2. Clay County shall sample all monitoring wells and surface waters semi-annually for the first year, and annually thereafter as per the N.C. Water Quality Monitoring Guidance Document. 3. A readily accessible, unobstructed path shall be initially cleared and maintained so that four-wheel drive vehicles may access the monitoring wells at all times. 4. Ground water quality at this facility is subject to the classification and remedial action provisions referenced in Rule .0503(2)(d) of 10 NCAC 10G. �j'�w STAif ,i aa� a ejY yunM vn nV.

Martin, Governor William W. Cobey, Jr., Secretary February 19, 1990 Mr. Carl Moore Clay County Manager P.O. Box 118 Hayesville, N.C. 28904 William L. Meyer Director Re: Evaluation of Ground and Surface Water Monitoring at the Clay County Landfill (Permit #22-01) Dear Mr. Moore, The field inspection of the monitoring system at the Clay County Landfill this past week confirmed a couple of problems. Several of the monitoring wells are not constructed properly. There is a need to establish a surface water monitoring program. Most of the monitoring wells at the landfill are too deep to be effective for detection monitoring purposes. The upgradient well (MW-4), while not constructed exactly to the proper specifications, is sufficient to be used for sampling. The downgradient well by the road (MW-1) according to the well completion record was constructed to a depth of 45 feet, however our field measurement recorded a depth of only about 18.5 feet. This more shallow depth is confirmed by the measurement taken at the time the well was sampled; the depth being recorded at 18.91 feet. This discrepancy in well depths for MW-1 would indicate some serious problem with the well construction. Therefore this well needs to be replaced. Since the static water table for this well is only about six feet below ground surface, a relatively shallow well (of from 15 to 20 feet in depth) would be desirable at this location. The old well should be abandoned according to the abandonment procedures outlined in NCAC Title 15, Subchapter 2C, Section .0113(a)(2), except the well should not be disinfected. The other two downgradient wells (MW-2 and MW-3) are deeper than is desirable for detection monitoring purposes. Our office would recommend that these two wells also be replaced with wells that penetrate the water table by 12 to 15 feet. These more shallow wells would be easier and less expensive to sample, and they would enable an earlier detection of potential contamination. Early detection of contamination is the key to reducing potential costs associated with assessments and corrective action should contamination have the potential to move offsite. Page 2 In recent years surface water monitoring has been overlooked at many solid waste management facilities. The Solid Waste Section is now in the process of re-establishing surface water. monitoring at all sanitary landfills in North Carolina. Surface water sampling should include a sample taken immediately upstream of the landfill facility as well as a sample taken immediately downstream of the facility. The streams should be sampled at the same time and for the same parameters as the ground -water monitoring wells. Please include the surface water data along with the ground -water analysis for all future water quality samplings. You may replace the existing downgradient well(s) at the same time the new well is installed below the new area to be utilized for waste disposal. All monitoring wells should be designed and installed according to the specifications in the "North Carolina Water Quality Monitoring Guidance Document For Solid Waste Facilities". If you have any questions or comments please contact our office at (919) 733-0692.

Meyer Director Re: Conditional Approval of the Ground Water Monitoring Plan For The Clay County Sanitary Landfill (Permit #22-01) Dear Mr. Owens, This letter is in response to the Ground Water Monitoring Plan that was recently submitted to our office by the CSL Group on behalf of Clay County. Proposed monitoring wells numbered MW-5 and MW-6 are to be constructed at the approximate locations as submitted in the plan. Existing monitoring well number MW-1 should be abandoned according to the proper well abandonment procedures, NCAC Title 15, Subchapter 2C, Section .0113(a)(2), except the well should not be disinfected. This monitoring well should be replaced with another shallow monitoring well in the same general area. Conditional approval of the Monitoring Plan is granted according to the following conditions: 1. The wells are to be placed about 50 to 100 feet from the waste boundary in areas free of garbage, refuse, or debris, and in areas not subject to flooding. 2. The wells should be drilled to a depth (and likewise, the screens placed at vertical locations) that will ensure that future drought conditions, which may lower the water table, will not render the monitoring system ineffective. The top of the well screen should be placed just above the level of the seasonal high water table. The wells should be designed so that the water table will always fall within the screened interval. 3. The monitoring wells are to be constructed according to the specifications in the "North Carolina Water Quality Monitoring Guidance Document for Solid Waste Facilities" as illustrated by the "Typical Monitoring Well Schematic" enclosed. An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Page 2 4. The screen should be a maximum of 15 feet in length. The sand pack should extend no more than 2 feet above the screen. A bentonite seal of at least 1.0 foot should be installed above the screened interval. 5. Another site map needs to be submitted that accurately depicts the property boundaries, the waste boundaries, the surface water monitoring sites, and the monitoring well locations. Within 15 days of completion of well installation, a complete and accurate Well Completion Record (DHS 3342) and Typical Well Schematic should be submitted to this office for each of the ground -water monitoring wells. In addition, please provide a summary of the hydrogeological data accumulated from the boring operation. Include boring logs and other pertinent subsurface information. If you have any questions or comments, please contact our office at (919) 733-0692. Sincerely, Bobby futry Hydrogeologist Solid Waste Section cc: Carl Moore ,.,&im Patterson Attachments
