5. Waste seemed to be in proper footprint. Water was standing in the area where yard waste was recently stored. Be careful with putting waste in water and managing leachate. The land somewhat slopes from entrance toward yard
waste storage and processing areas. Storm water management needs to be addressed better. There is a small drainage feature, whether natural or intentional, that seems to be used to divert storm water from the yard waste but it needs cleaning out.
6. Just inside entrance, to the left, yard waste material is being allowed to encroach into a buffer. There is a water feature just inside reeds. Rules state in part, “…50‐foot buffer to perennial streams/rivers, and a 25‐foot buffer to

ditches and berms…” This feature is closer to a ditch but either way the site needs to meet the buffer requirements and ensure no waste or leachate can leave site or enter surface waters. Please rake back this material and mark the buffers along this feature so onsite staff will be aware of the limits of their operating area.
