ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
1. This inspection was conducted to determine that the new Phase 2, Area 3, Cell 2 is ready to accept waste.
2. Photos included in this report were taken by Susan Heim on April 22, 2021 unless otherwise noted.
3. Facility access roadways were observed to be well -maintained.
4. Some ponding water was visible near the southern end of the new cell; however, the amount of water observed
was considerably less than that found during the previous inspection on March 11, 2021.
5. Windblown litter that had been noted in Cell 2 during the previous inspection had been collected and disposed
of properly. Windblown litter appeared to be well managed during this inspection, and litter collection was
taking place on the southeast side slope of the active landfill, which will serve as the tie-in slope, connecting the
new Cell 2 to the remainder of the active landfill.
6. The interior and exterior slopes of the new cell were found to be in good condition, with vegetative cover still in
place. The exception was the tie-in slope, where recurring heavy rain events had washed away portions of the
vegetative cover, and the stormwater flow had created large erosion rills leading downhill toward the new cell.
Several of these erosion rills had exposed waste, mainly in the vicinity of the two parallel rows of silt fence that
had been installed above the toe of the slope. However, the fencing still appeared to be intact and functioning
properly, blocking the sediment from reaching Cell 2.
7. Repairs were observed to be underway on the tie-in slope during the inspection. Clean soil cover had been
applied to the upper third, and trucks were observed staging soil piles along the top of the slope sufficient to
complete the remaining repairs in advance of seeding. Mr. Phelps provided photos of the tie-in slope following
the inspection to confirm that the repairs had been finished as planned. Additional grading work will continue to
prepare the slope for seeding.
8. Mr. Brushwood stated that plans were in the works for pumping out the remaining water from the bottom of the
new cell.
9. Please notify the Solid Waste Section prior to moving operations to the new Cell 2.
10. Ensure that the initial lift is composed of a fluff layer to afford some protection for the liner before other waste
is disposed of in the new cell.
11. Ensure that the pneumatic plug is removed prior to accepting waste in the new cell so that leachate can flow to
the sump as designed.

water.
Erosion rills containing
exposed waste can be seen on
an area of the tie-in slope. The
white material below the silt
fencing is the temporary plastic
cover placed over the exposed
waste during the new cell
construction.
