Box 27687 - Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687 James G. Martin, Governor William W. Cobey, Jr., Secretary July 5, 1990 Mr. Chester Crisp Graham County Manager P.O. Box 575 Robbinsville, N. C. 28771 Re: Surface Water Monitoring at the Graham County Landfill Permit #(38-01). Dear Mr. Crisp: William L. Meyer Director Section .0602 (Surface Water Monitoring) of The Solid Waste Management Rules (10 NCAC 10G) states that "The division shall require a solid waste management facility to provide such surface water monitoring capability as the division determines to be necessary to detect the effects of the facility on surface water in the area." As a result of the focus on ground -water monitoring 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 a surface water monitoring program at all sanitary landfills in North Carolina. Surface water monitoring should include a sample taken immediately upstream of the landfill facility as well as a sample taken immediately downstream of the facility. Each significant stream adjoining (or within) the landfill facility should be sampled. All ground and surface water monitoring should be performed according to the specifications in the "North Carolina Water Quality Monitoring Guidance Document for Solid Waste Facilities". Within the next 30 days, please submit to our office a surface water monitoring plan. This plan should include a map of the permitted landfill facility showing all streams within or adjoining the landfill property. Proposed stream monitoring locations should be indicated on the map with designations that can be correlated with future sample analytical data (e.g. SW-1, SW-2, etc.). You should also indicate which are upstream sampling locations, and which are downstream locations. 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 the next scheduled sampling episode and all future water quality samplings. Page 2 Thank you for your cooperation in re-establishing surface water monitoring along with the ongoing ground -water monitoring program at your landfill facility.

Dear Mr. Teglas: The Solid Waste Management Division has received a request for characterization of the subject waste. Based upon the submitted information, the waste appears to be non -hazardous. The Solid Waste Management Division has no objection to the sanitary landfill disposal of this 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 and can be confined, compacted, and covered in accordance with the Solid Waste Management Rules (10 NCAC 10G) . 3. If the waste is delivered in drLms and the drums are to be disposed, they will be perforated with small holes prior to delivery to ensure that no liquids are present. 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. Failure to meet these conditions may result in revocation of this approval, and subsequently, an administrative penalty.

The types of wastes that will be evaluated by this procedure are primarily, but not exclusively, industrial and commercial wastes and sludges, and Publicly Owned Treatment Works Sludges. The Solid Waste Management Division reserves the right to request additional information or waive some of the requirements based on the type of waste if it deems necessary. The Division may also require some wastes to be treated or altered to render the wastes environmentally immobile prior to disposal at a sanitary landfill. Wastes disposed at sanitary landfills must be non -liquid which can be properly managed in accordance with the "Solid Waste Management Rules". APPROVAL TO DISPOSE OF THE WASTE SHALL ALSO BE OBTAINED FROM THE OWNER OR OPERATOR OF THE LANDFILL PRIOR TO DISPOSAL. The following information is required for an evaluation.

Meyer Director Mr. Julian Foscue, Solid Waste Supervisor, and I visited the Graham County Landfill, Permit No. 38-01, on November 7, 1990. During our visit, we observed several problem areas at the landfill. Listed below are areas of concern requiring attention: 1. The new sedimentation basin required on the landfill expansion plan permit needs to be installed. 2. Solid waste is not being properly compacted. 3. The drainage ditch running from near the landfill entrance all the way to the top of the landfill needs re -working. All solid waste accumulated in the ditch line must be removed. 4. Surface water is being impounded over waste in the disposal area at the top of the landfill. 5. The disposal area at the top of the landfill needs to be completed, closed out and seeded. 6. The borrow area located at the top of the landfill needs to be graded and seeded. Only a small section of this area should be utilized for cover. A notice of violation has been issued to Graham County for failure to install the new siltation basin. A compliance inspection will be conducted soon, and if this basin is not installed, administrative action may be pursued. An Equal Opportunity Aflim-ottve Action Employer Mr. Chester Crisp November 19, 1990 Page two The other problem areas discussed also require immediate attention. Graham County should take all actions necessary to ensure that compliance with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Rules is maintained on a con- tinuing basis.

They appeared this week in the Federal Register and I am enclosing a copy of them. In this new policy, the Forest Service is laying down the following conditions: o The Forest Service will be phasing out all existing landfills and not allowing any new permits for landfills. O Communities needing more time to use their existing landfills can request interim permits but all permits will end after December 31, 1999. o In order to get an interim permit, the county will have to post a bond, purchase insurance or show in some other way that it will be responsible to the Forest Service for costs of restoring the site and correcting any environ- mental damage. This last requirement will probably hit your county the hardest. Both businesses and local governments have found it particularly hard to find insurance on the market for such environmental risks. If bonds and insurance are going to be firm requirements of continuing to use a landfill on Forest Service property, then this may have the result of forcing your county to give•up its landfill prematurely. ' Letter to Ms. Kelly Shuler June 29, 1990 Page 2 Furthermore, for some communities, Forest Service or other public land is the only land available nearby for landfill operations. The general decision by the Forest Service to discon- tinue landfill sites in the future could force such communities to transport their solid waste over a long distance at far greater cost and inconvenience. At this point these Forest Service regulations are only a proposal. The public now has a period of comment that will expire August 27. If these regulations would cause a hardship in your community, the period between now and August 27 is the time to let the Forest Service know about it, before the agency adopts them as its final policy. The Forest Service will give weight to your comments during this open period. If you wait to raise these questions later, the rules will have become final and therefore much harder to change, if not impossible. My interest in this matter stems from my recent background with the Forest Service. From 1981 to 1987 I served as 'Deputy Assistant Secretary of Agriculture for Natural Resources and Environment, a position in which I worked day to day with the Forest Service here in Washington on its policy matters. Since 1987 I have had my own private law practice specializing in matters before the Forest Service. From this experience, I know that the Forest Service does listen to well -reasoned comments, especially from communities that are neighbors to National Forests. I believe I can give you valuable help with the following: o Developing with you the prepared written comments you would submit before the August 27 deadline. o Assuring that your comments not only reflect your local situation but also relate to the national policies on municipal landfills now under consideration by Congress and EPA. o Bringing your concerns to the attention of your Senators and Congressman at the time you register your comments. o Maintaining contact with Forest Service officials after the August 29 deadline and advising you of further steps, if needed. 0 Letter to Ms. Kelly Shuler June 29, 1990 Page 3 If you wish to discuss this further, I invite you to call me as soon as possible at my office, 202/234-0500.

ACTION: Notice of proposed policy; request for -comments. SUMMARY: The Chief of the Forest Service is proposing a revision of the policy governing solid waste disposal on National Forest System lands. The proposal would prohibit the authorization of new solid waste disposal sites (sanitary landfills), except st isolated locations in Alaska, would phase out existing sites by December 31, 1999, and would establish criteria for determining termination dates for existing authorizations. To protect the Covernment from potential liability in event of hazardous aubstance releases on National Forest System lands, the policy would prohibit sale or exchange of existing solid waste disposal sites. he proposal would allow sufficient time for operators of solid waste disposal facilities to acquire or develop alternative sites and also would provide direction for the safe operation of existing sites to ensure compliance with Federal and State law and regulations and the terms of the special use authorization. The intended effect of the proposed policy is to eliminate the potential sources and risk of pollution associated with operation of solid waste disposal sites on National Forest System lands. DATES: Comments must be received in writing by August 27,1990. ADDRESSES: Send written comments to F. DaIe Robertson, Chief (2720), Forest Service, USDA, P.O. Box 96090, Washington, DC 20090-6090, The public riay inspect comments received on this proposed policy in the Office of the Director, Lands Staff, Room 4 South. Auditors Building, 20114th Street, SW, Washington, DC between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mark Scheibel, Lands Staff, (202) 453- 9358. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:. Background. In the past, many open -pit garbage dumps and solid waste disposal sites were permitted on National Forest System lands. For example, 538 sites were under special use permit in 1985. As a result of increased awareness and concern over environmental pollution and the risks of hazardous waste, the Forest Service, working in coordination with local governments over the past two decades, has eliminated open pit dumps and significantly reduced the number of solid waste disposal sites. Currently, most communities located within or near National Forests and National Crasslands operate sanitary landfills on private lands. However, there remain 110 solid waste disposal sites authorized on National Forest System lands. All of'the sites are operated by county and municipal governments and are used for the disposal of residential and non- hazardous commercial waste. Terms of the authorizations prohibit the dumping of hazardous wastes and require measures to protect Forest resources. A recent review of the agency's current solid waste management policy indicated that the policy and practices currently authorized are inconsistent with the principles of multiple -use and sustained -yield management of National Forest System lands which are mandated by statute. The concerns which surfaced during this review included: The inability of most permit holders to meet the terms and conditions of the adthorization, including the Environmental Protection Agency reo Cations for solid waste disposal; the high potential for contamination of soil, ground water, and other resources; and the possibility that the Forest Service would have to provide the funding for site cleanup. As a result of the review, the Forest Service has concluded that it cannot effectively administer authorizations for solid waste disposal sites and meet the statutory resource management goals for the National Forest System. Accordingly, the agency is proposing that no new solid waste disposal sites be authorized that no expansion of existing sites be authorized, and that existing sites be eliminated by December 31,1999. The proposed policy will not result in the immediate closure of any site except for breach of the terms and conditions of a permit that cannot be corrected. The proposal would give affected communities up to December 31,1999, to find alternative sites and specifically provides for reissuance of permits during the phase out period to allow communities reasonable opportunity to find alternative sites or disposal methods. The result of this policy will be the eventual closure of all solid waste disposal sites on National Forest System lands. The agency anticipates that most sites will remain in operation. reach capcity, and be reclaimed prior to the required closure date of December 31. 1999. Upon closure of these sites, communities whicli have historically used sites on the National Forests for community landfills will be required, for community landfill purposes, to obtain sites on private lands or find alternative methods of disposal. This may change the current methods of collection and disposal or could be more expensive than their current method of disposal In addition to phasing out all solid waste disposal sites, the Forest Service has discovered an administrative error in many existing solid waste disposal authorizations that needs to be corrected in the interim. Special use authorizations should be issued for these sites pursuant to regulations at 36 CFR part 251, subpart B. under the authority of the Act of September 3,1954 (43 U.S.C. 931c and 931d). However, through administrative error, many local Forest Service officers have authorized solid waste disposal sites under the Act of June 4, 1897, an authority that is limited to short term. temporary facilities which are removed upon expiration of the special use permit. The Forest Service intends to correct this problem by replacing those authorizations issued under the Act of June 4, 1897 with term special use permits issued under the Act of September 3,1954. Solid waste transfer stations (containers used for temporary storage) which comply with the Forest Plan and applicable regulations may continue to be authorized on National Forest System lands. Transfer stations are limited to the temporary storage of nonhazardous waste. The transfer station facilities must be constructed and operated to avoid the contamination of soil, ground water, and other resources. An Environmental Assessment (EA) has been prepared on the proposed policy. Copies of the EA may be obtained by writing or calling the office or person listed under ADDRESS and FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT located at the beginning of this document. The proposed policy for solid waste disposal would be issued as direction to Forest Service personnel by amendment to section 2723.41 of the Forest Service Manual. The text of the proposal, as it would appear in the manual, is set out at the end of this notice. Public comment is invited and will be considered in development of the final notice of policy which will be published in the Federal Regis ter. j . r Federal R- -tster / Vol. 55.

Forest Servico Manual Chapter 2720-Special Uses hfanagement 2723.41-Sulid Waste Disposal Sites. This category of special use includes disposal sites for garbage, trash, and other nonhazardous solid waste. See FSM 2725.2 for guidance concerning storage of scrap, junk, and other reusable materials. 2723.41a-Administration. Authorized officers shall issue and administer special use authorizations for solid waste disposal sites on all National Forest System land in accordance with the requirements of this section. except for Alaska, where this section applies to community solid waste disposal sites only. See $ 2723.41d of this chapter for direction on issuing and administering solid waste disposal sites for remote and isolated facilities in Alaska. 1. Do not authorize new solid waste disposal sites or expansion of existing sites. 2. Terminate the use of existing disposal sites when the site is filled, when the special use authorization expires, when the holder fails to correct a breach of the special use authorization, or upon mutual agreement with the holder. Do not allow any use of existing sites beyond December 31, 1999. 3. For the interim period, revise or reissue existing special use authorizations as needed. Authorizations shall require the holder to meet current Federal and State standards and requirements for solid waste disposal sites, shall contain an expiration clause, and, if needed, shall include provisions for monitoring, maintenance, and restoration of the site after closure of the site an many cases, a separate authorization ►nay be necessary for post -closure activities). 4. Reissue authorizations of existing sites only as necessary to provide holders the opportunity to locate alternative solid waste disposal sites or to develop alternative methods of disposal. a. Use the Act of September 3. 1954 (U.S.C. 931c and 931d) as the authority for authorizing all solid waste disposal site reissuances or amendments to such authorizations. The tern of the authorization should not exceed the anticipated life of the existing facility or December 31, 1999. whichever occurs first. b. Amend or reissue those special use authorizations for solid waste disposal sites that were improperly authorized under the Act of June 4,1897. c. Establish a rental fee for authorization holders which reflects fair market value of the rights and privileges authorized (30 CFR 251.57). Fair market value may be determined through appraisal or other sound business management principles. Fees cannot be waived or reduced for term permits issued under the Act of September 3,1954. d. As a condition of reissuance of an authorization for a solid waste disposal site. require a bond, insurance, or some other reliable means, if necessary, to assure indemnification of the Forest Service from costs associated with environmental damage and restoration of the site. e. Development or modification of operating plans, closure plans, or site monitoring plans requires site specific analysis in accordance with NEPA. I. Consult the Office of the General Counsel in unusual or potentially controversial situations. 5. When a solid waste disposal site is in noncompliance with terms and conditions of th"uthorization, determine the magnitude or extent of noncompliance, the feasibility of continued operation. and the presence of any hazardous material on the site. In a noncompliance situation, it is the holder's responsibility to complete a plan of action and take corrective measures which brings the site into compliance. Sites which cannot be brought into compliance shall be closed and cleaned up by the holder. 2723.41b Termination. The authorization officer shall determine the timing of termination of existing authorizations. Base termination dates on the following factors: 1. The remaining useful life of the site. 2. The holder's current and past compliance with the terms and conditions of the authorization. 3. The impacts of use of the site for solid waste disposal on other forest resources. 4. Availability of alternative sites off National Forest System lands. 5. bfanagement guidelines and prescriptions for the area as established in the Forest Plan. 8. Expiration date of current authorization. If the authorized officer determines that an authorization should be terminated prior to its expiration date. that officer shall give timely notice to the affected holder that the termination date must be adjusted, shall openly consult with the holder, and shall seek to reach an agreement on the termination date. 21--.'.41c-Exchange or Sale of Existing Solid Waste Disposal Sites. Where solid waste disposal has occurred on National Forest System land, the United States may be liable after a conveyance of the land for releases of hazardous substances disposed of at the time the United States owned the lard. Therefore, the exchange or sale of National Forest System lands with solid waste disposal sites is prohibited. 2723.41d-Special Situations -Alaska Region. Issue and administer authorizations for community solid waste disposal sites on National Forests in Alaska in accordance with'the requirements of section 2723.41 a and b. The Alaska Region shall work with and enccurage the State of Alaska to select suitable areas for solid waste disposal near existing and proposed communities under the authority of the Statehood Act, Section 6(a), PL 85--SM July 7, 1958. If no non -Federal land is available, non - community solid waste disposal sites may be authorized for the following types of uses of National Forest System lands in Alaska: 1. Remote lodges permitted under special use authorizations. 2. Mining activities in remote forest locations. 4. Remote Forest Service administrative sites. 5. Forest Service contractors working in remote locations. 6. Aquaculture sites in remote locations. 7. Use by other Federal Agencies located in remote National Forest locations. 8. Remote area is defined as an island and/ or mainland location with access only by aircraft or boat. The Alaska Region shall develop a supplemental policy which minimizes the environmental risk and and possibility that the Forest Service would have to provide the funding for site cleanup for any of these sites. 2723.45�-Solid Waste Transfer Stations. Solid waste transfer stations are small areas where the holder places covered or closed containers used for the temporary storage of nonhazardous solid waste. Solid waste transfer stations may be authorized on National Forest System land when other suitable sites are not available and the use is not in conflict with the approved Forest Plan. Issue special use permits. for transfer stations under the Act of September 3. 1954 (U.S.C. 931c and 931d) and, as part of the permit, require measures which will ensure resource protection and protect visual quality of the area. Do not allow waste to be stored at the site for more than seven days. Management and design of solid waste transfer stations shall comply with FSM 7462, and current State and local regulations.
