Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22, an administrative penalty of up to $15,000 per day may be assessed for each violation of the Solid Waste Laws, Regulations, Conditions of a Permit, or Order under Article 9 of Chapter 130A of the N.C. General Statutes. Further, the facility and/or all responsible parties may also be subject to enforcement actions including penalties, injunction from operation of a solid waste management facility or a solid waste collection service and any such further relief as may be necessary to achieve compliance with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Act and Rules. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS C&D Landfill 1. The facility is permitted to receive C&D waste generated in Harnett County. 2. The working face was approaching the '/2 acre size limit. Six (6) inches of earthen material should be properly applied once weekly or when the working face reaches %2 acre. 3. At the time of this inspection, the waste type was identified to be construction and demolition waste. No unacceptable wastes were observed within the waste stream. 4. At the time of this inspection, areas of thick mulch with sparse vegetation and erosion rills were identified along the northern and western side slopes of the C&D landfill. Mulch should be applied no more than 4- 6 inches thick for slope stabilization. The thick mulch can impede the growth of vegetation. The thick mulch should be mixed with soil to promote vegetative growth and stabilization of the side slopes. The erosion rills need to be repaired prior to the establishment of vegetative growth. Dark tannic colored water was observed at the base of the side slopes. The erosion rills need to be repaired and the side slopes monitored to ensure that there are no leachate seeps. On November 18, 2020, Chad Beane provided photographs of the removal of the mulch and repair of the erosion rills along the northern and western side slopes. Mr. Beane's photographs can be found at the end of this report. 5. An area of standing water was identified on top of the C&D landfill Phase I and 11. The area should be regraded to promote drainage away from the top of the landfill. 6. At the time of this inspection, the side slopes of the future C&D landfill Phase IV were found to have numerous erosion rills. The sediment from the future Phase IV was identified to be flowing to the west and into the sediment basins. The side slopes of the sediment basins were identified to almost vertical with little to no vegetative stabilization. The side slopes of the future Phase IV and sediment basins need to be properly graded and seeded for stabilization. It is also recommended that the sediment basins be cleaned out and returned to plan dimensions in order to function properly. 7. Edge of Waste (EOW) markers were not observed around the C&D landfill. Mr. Thomas stated that the markers were removed for the recent mowing event. Based on correspondence with Mr. Beane on November 19, 2020, the EOW markers were to be reinstalled by the end of the week. 8. Waste stored on top of the landfill should be removed and used or disposed of properly. 9. The facility is fenced and is secured by a locking gate when it is not open for operation. 10. The correct signage is at the entrance of the facility listing the facility name, permit number and emergency contact information as well as materials accepted at the facility. 11. The facility accepts waste Monday through Saturday from 7:30 am until 4:30 pm, with the exception of Wednesday from 7:30 am until 12:00 pm. 12. The permit, and operations plan, and records were reviewed during this inspection. 13. The facility has certified personnel on site during the hours the site is open to the public. The certified personnel on site are: David Baker, Certified Manager of Landfill Operations, 1529839, exp. 6/14/21 Clifford (Duke) Harrington, Certified Manager of Landfill Operations, 1529890, exp. 6/14/21 David Baker, Certified Landfill Operations Specialist, LF-2004126, exp 2/3/22 James Haney, Certified Landfill Operations Specialist, LF-2004127, exp. 2/3/22 Larry Thomas, Certified Landfill Operations Specialist, LF-2009046, exp. 4/14/21 Duke Harrington, Certified Landfill Operations Specialist, LF-2018094, exp. 3/20/21 Bridget Tew, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist, TS-2020028, exp. 2/27/23 Page 2 of 5 FACILITY COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT D_E Q�� Division of Waste Management NORTH CAROLINA o"—t0E-!�'m""lW'Ift Solid Waste Section James Haney, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist, TS-2006066, exp. 11/17/21 David Baker, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist, TS-2006061, exp. 11/17/21 Duke Harrington, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist, TS-201824, exp. 3/21/21 14. The facility had recently been mowed and the woody vegetation has been removed. Good job! 15. One monitoring well (CDMW-2) was observed to have been damaged, casing broken and unable to be locked, with no lock on the cap. Another monitoring well (MW-5) was not properly labeled. Mr. Thomas stated that CDMW-3 was damaged and had not been sampled. Monitoring wells must be designed and constructed in accordance with the applicable North Carolina Well Construction Standards as codified in 15A NCAC 02C (15A NCAC 13B .0544 (2)). Monitoring wells that have been damaged and/or are no longer sampled, need to either be repaired or properly abandoned in accordance with 15A NCAC 02C. 16. A perimeter road has been established around the entire footprint of the landfill. 17. Digital pictures were taken during the inspection. Yard Waste 18. Per the March 31, 2020 Permit to Operate, Attachment 3,Part VII (72) (a) states," the yard waste is to be stockpiled in separate windrows with a maximum 15 feet and the width of 50 feet in size at any time." At the time of this inspection, the yard waste appears to be exceeding the maximum 15-foot height and wider that the allowed 50-foot width. The northern side slope of the yard waste processing area was also located close to the adjacent tree line and not accessible via a vehicle. The yard waste needs to be windrowed in accordance with the Permit and accessible on all sides via vehicle for fire suppression purposes. 19. Unacceptable wastes (i.e. plastic bags, a pool noodle) were observed along the northern edge of the yard waste area. Several tires were located within the tree line adjacent to the northern edge of the yard waste processing area. The unacceptable waste needs to be removed from the yard waste and properly disposed of. 20. An area of standing water was observed near the southeastern corner of the yard waste. The yard waste processing area should be graded to promote drainage away from the waste. 21. This area must be managed in accordance to the permit and approved operations plan. Closed MSWLF 22. The drainage pipe along the central roadway on the top of the closed MSWLF, near Leachate Sump C, was broken and had created a hole. The drainage pipe and the resulting hole need to be properly repaired. Corrective measures are necessary, as a result of this inspection and should be complete within 30 days' receipt of this report. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report.
