RESOLVED: During the previous inspection, corrugated plastic pipes, electrical cords and glass were
observed in waste piles. Mr. Reeves, who was not present during the last inspection, stated that these
wastes are diverted from landfilling to either be reused on site or disposed of in an onsite dumpster.
2. 15A NCAC 13B .0566(3) states: "Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) landfills shall meet the
following operational requirements: (3) Solid waste shall be restricted to the smallest area feasible and
compacted as densely as possible into cells."
CORRECTIVE MEASURES IN PROGRESS: The facility was cited in that waste was not restricted
to the smallest area feasible. There is uncovered waste near the bottom of the southeast slope. During the
inspection, work was being done to bury the debris and grade the slope.
3. 15A NCAC 13B .0566(4) states: "Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) landfills shall meet the
following operational requirements: (4) Adequate soil cover shall be applied monthly, or when the active
area reaches one acre in size, whichever comes first."
CORRECTIVE MEASURES IN PPROGRESS: The active working face appears to be under one acre.
During the previous inspection, uncovered waste was observed on the southern slope. Waste was not
observed at the top of the southern slope during this inspection, but some yard waste is still at the bottom.
4. 15A NCAC 13B .0566(5) states: "Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) landfills shall meet the
following operational requirements: (5) 120 calendar days after completion of any phase of disposal
operations, or upon revocation of a permit, the disposal area shall be covered with a minimum of one foot
of suitable soil cover sloped to allow surface water runoff in a controlled manner."
CORRECTIVE MEASURES IN PROGRESS: Closed phases appeared to be adequately covered. The
southern slope is currently being covered and regraded. Corrective measures will need to continue before
this violation is resolved.
5. 15A NCAC 13B .0203(d) states `By receiving solid waste at a permitted facility, the permittee(s) shall be
considered to have accepted the conditions of the permit and shall comply with the conditions of the
permit." Attachment 3, Condition 14 (previously stated as Condition 7) of the Permit to Operate states
"Excavation, grading and fill material side slopes must not exceed a ratio of three horizontal feet to one
vertical foot (3:1)."
CORRECTIVE MEASURES IN PROGRESS: The western slope appeared to exceed the 3:1 grade.
Corrective measures will need to continue before this violation is resolved.
