1.o OVERVIEW
Smith Gardner, Inc. (S+G) was retained by GFL Environmental, Inc. (GFL) to prepare an
assessment report for the Deep Run Transfer Station (NCDEQ Solid Waste Permit No. 54-08-
Transfer-2014) in accordance with recently adopted Solid Waste Rules'.
This report was prepared in response to Rule 15A NCAC 13B .0401(b), which requires a
licensed professional engineer or geologist to perform an assessment of the condition of
buildings (if any), access roads, parking, and leachate collection systems of the current
operations compared to the Rule. S+G's review was limited to the facility's conformance with
the documents identified in Section 1.2 and did not include a review of Operating Records and
Recordkeeping requirements.
This report addresses each rule through photo documentation noting if action is necessary /i. e.,
no action, monitor, or repair], photo location, and observations made. Unless otherwise noted,
items identified for monitor or repair do not impose an immediate threat to the safety or
integrity of the facility or the controls in place. Rather, they point out deficiencies, where, if no
action is taken, additional damage may have a significant impact on facility operations and the
surrounding environment. S+G "s recommendations included at the end of the report are based
on the photo documentation and observations provided.

4.0 BUILDINGS
Observations made during the on -site inspection related to buildings are described below and
correlated to a representative photo. Photograph locations were georeferenced using ArcGIS
and are included on Figure 1.
15A NCAC 13B. 0403 fblf IJ and 0 Sites shall be designed and constructed so that all solid waste
receiving, handling, transfer, and storage occurs on an impervious surface, such as concrete or
asphalt, unless otherwise stated in the site permit. Tipping floors shall be located within an
enclosed building or covered area to prevent precipitation from coming into contact with waste,
and all waste shall be managed on the tipping floors unless otherwise stated in the site permit.
For the purpose of the rules of this Section, "tipping floor" means the area where waste is
offloaded from residential or commercial vehicles, and staged and consolidated for transport to
its intended disposal location.
The Deep Run transfer station is a bi-level prefabricated metal building. The building's upper
level includes an approximate 4,500 square foot tipping floor, with push walls along the interior
sides that are used to direct waste to feed hoppers for loading transfer trailers. The lower level
is a drive through access for transfer trailers loading.

5.0 PLANNED PROJECTS
Following the site inspection S+G met with facility personnel to discuss observations. At this
time, facility personnel identified the following project planned for 2021:
1. Preventative maintenance will be performed on portions of the access roads, where
wear is most prominent.
6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
In general, the Deep Run Transfer Station was in good condition. Below is a list of action items
identified during the site inspection.
• Monitor apron transition and apron itself. Minor damage includes surface cracks and
more significant cracking of the apron.
• Replace sign at entrance to include the correct emergency contact information.
• Monitor tipping floor for surface wear and exposed aggregate on pad and at joints.
Resurfacing may be required within five (5) years.
• Monitor push walls for additional damage. Some concrete chipping at joints. Repair if
damage persists.
• Repair steel plate on push wall to prevent additional damage.
• Monitor damaged siding panels as well as tipping floor foundation. If damage persists,
consider repairing.

2.4 PROHIBITION OF OPEN BURNING
Open burning of waste is prohibited at the transfer station.
2.5 WASTE SCREENING PROGRAMS
2.5.1 Trained Personnel
In order to assure that prohibited wastes are not entering the facility, screening programs
have been implemented. Trained personnel will be on duty during all hours of operation.
These individuals have been trained to spot indications of suspicious wastes, including:
hazardous placarding or markings, liquids, powders or dusts, sludges, bright or unusual
colors, drums or commercial size containers, and "chemical' odors. Screening programs
for visual and olfactory characteristics of prohibited wastes are an ongoing part of the
facility operation.
2.5.2 Waste Receiving and Inspection
All vehicles carrying waste or recovered materials crust stop at the scale located in the
northeast corner of property behind transfer station. All transportation vehicles are
weighed and the content ❑fthe load assessed. Municipal solid waste (MSW) and recycle
load tickets are maintained separately. The scale attendant(s) requests from the driver of
the vehicle a description of the waste it is carrying to ensure that unacceptable waste is not
allowed into the facility. The attendant(s) then visually checks the vehicle as it crosses the
scale. Signs informing users of the acceptable and unacceptable types of waste are posted
at the scale house. Once passing the scales, recycle collection vehicles are directed to the
separate material recover facility (MRF) on an adjacent lot. MSW collection vehicles are
routed to the transfer area. Scales may also use an automated attendant. While the
automated system is operating the transfer station attendant shall be responsible for
assessing loads prior to and upon dumping. Waste Industries LLC shall communicate
with customers to ensure all drivers understand the automated system and location of
transfer facilities.
Vehicles are randomly selected for screening on a regular basis, depending on personnel
availability. At least one vehicle per week will be randomly selected by inspection
personnel. A random truck number and time will be selected (e.g., the tenth load after
1 U:tl4 a.m.) on the day of inspections. However, if something suspicious is spotted in any
waste load, that load is inspected further.
Vehicles selected for inspection are directed to an area on the tipping floor where the
vehicle will be unloaded. Waste is carefully spread using suitable equipment. An
attendant trained to identify wastes that are unacceptable inspects the waste discharged at
Deep Run Transfer Station Operations Manual
January 2014 Page 2-2

DocuSign Envelope ID:41675089-B1D7-4D4A-B1DC-EFBB8CB01807
the screening area. If unacceptable waste is found, the load will be isolated, reloaded, and
the generator/hauler will be logged and escorted out of the facility. Far unacceptable
wastes that are non -hazardous, the Owner will then notify officials of the DWM (see
Section 1.2.3) within 24 hours of attempted disposal of any waste the facility is not
permitted to receive in order to determine the proper course of action. The hauler is
responsible for removing unacceptable waste from the facility property. If no
unacceptable waste is found, MSW loads will be pushed into a transfer trailer and/or
equipment. All random waste inspections will be documented by operations staff using
the waste screening form provided in Appendix B.
In addition to random waste screening described above, waste unloaded on the tipping
floor will be inspected by the equipment operators, trained to spot unacceptable wastes,
betare and during pushing into the transfer trailers. Any suspicious looking waste is
reported immediately to the designated primary inspector for further evaluation. Facility
operators are also trained to recognize hot loads. If a hot load is discovered upon
approach to facility local fire department shall be notified and the vehicle operator shall be
directed to position vehicle on paved area south west of transfer station where the load may
be off loaded and extinguished by the fire department.

SECTION 3
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
3.1 OVERVIEW
This section reviews the overall environmental management tasks required for the successful
operation of the facility.
3.2 SURFACE WATER CONTROL
As used herein, the definition of"surface water" is water which results from precipitation or site
run-on that has not contacted the waste.
Proper control of surface water at the transfer area will accomplish the following goals:
Prevent the run-on of surface water into waste handling areatsy;
Prevent the run-off of surface water that has come into contact with the waste (i.e.
leachate);
Limit the erosion caused by surface waters; and
Limit sediments carried off -site by surface waters.
Separate erosion and sedimentation control plans are were provided to the North Carolina Division
of Land Resources. These plans describe both short and long term engineered features and
practices for preventing erosion and controlling sedimentation at this site.
3.2.1 Erosion Control
Erosion control measures have been taken within the drainage channels and at points of
stormwater discharge. All site features should be inspected regularly for erosion damage
and promptly repaired.
3.2.2 Sedimentation Control
Stormwater run-off from the site is conveyed to through grass lined drainage ditches to
Horse Branch. Grass lined slopes and ditches minimize sediment levels leaving property.
3.3 LEACHATE MANAGEMENT
The leachate management system for the transfer station consists of the concrete tipping floor,
collection trenches and leachate transmission piping, pumps, and 2100 gallon polyurethane above
ground storage tank (AST) within a secondary containment structure. Upon reaching 70%
capacity water shall be hauled to the City of Kinston POTW by M & C Septic Tank Services, 520
Mary Beth St, Kinston, NC 28504.
Deep Run Transfer Station Operations Manual
January 2014 Page 3-1

DocuSign Envelope ID:41675089-B1D7-4D4A-B1DC-EFBB8CB01807
3.3.1 Leachate Collection
The tipping floor is graded to drain away from the building entrance. Leachate
Gam the tipping floor is collected in floor drains in receiving trench which drain to
a central leachate sump. From the sump, leachate is pumped via a s sump pump to
the AST.
3.3.2 Operation and Maintenance of Leachate Pumps
Operation and maintenance of leachate pumps shall be in accordance with the
appropriate manufacturer's recommendations. The Solid Waste Manager or his
designee shall be responsible for following and documenting, as required, these
activities.
3.4 VECTOR CONTROL
Waste Industries shall provide effective vector control measures for the protection of human
health. Disease vectors are any rodent, insect, or other animal capable of transmitting disease to
humans. Disease vectors will be controlled by implementation of a daily cleaning program
including removal of waste, leachate, and wash water from the operations area. Waste Industries
shall use wash water to keep the tipping floor and drive-thru areas clean and tree of rodents, flies,
and other animals. Stagnant ponded water will be prevented to control mosquito breeding. Full
or partially filled transfer trailers will be covered if left on site overnight. Waste will not be stored
on the tipping floor overnight. If vector control becomes a problem, additional measures will be
taken to ensure the protection of human health.
3.5 ODOR CONTROL
Odorous or potentially odorous materials will be pushed into a transfer truck and covered as soon
as possible to avoid odor problems. Additionally, the transfer areas will be cleaned and swept
daily and washed down weekly, at a minimum. If odor control becomes a problem, additional
measures will be taken to ensure odor control.
3.6 DUST CONTROL
Dust related to waste hauler traffic on the access roads will be minimized by using a sprinkler
system to limit dust on the gravel portion of the road-
3.7 WINDBLOWN WASTE CONTROL
All incoming vehicles with waste are required to have their loads covered upon arrival at the site or
be fully enclosed. Outbound transfer trailers are also required to be covered. On a daily basis,
site personnel will police the site for windblown litter. Since the transfer station is enclosed on
three sides, windblown waste should not be a major concern. If needed, litter fences will be
installed to intercept windblown waste.

EPA Method 9095
Paint Filter Liquids Test

DocuSign Envelope ID:41675089-B1D7-4D4A-B1DC-EFBB8CB01807
METHOD 90956
PAINT FILTER LIQUIDS TEST
1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION
1.1 This method is used to determine the presence of free liquids in a representative
sample of waste.
1.2 The method is used to determine compliance with 40 CFR 264.314 and 265.314.
2.0 SUMMARY OF METHOD
2.1 A predetermined amount of material is placed in a paint filter. If any portion of the
material passes through and drops from the filter within the 5-min test period, the material is
deemed to contain free liquids.
3.0 INTERFERENCES
3.1 Filter media were observed to separate from the filter cone on exposure to alkaline
materials. This development causes no problem if the sample is not disturbed.
3.2 Temperature can affect the test results if the test is performed below the freezing
point of any liquid in the sample. Tests must be performed above the freezing point and can,
but are not required to, exceed room temperature of 25 °C.
4.0 APPARATUS AND MATERIALS
4.1 Conical paint filter -- Mesh number 60 +1- 5% Mine meshed size). Available at local
paint stores such as Sherwin-Williams and Glidden.
4.2 Glass funnel -- If the paint filter, with the waste, cannot sustain its weight on the
ring stand, then a fluted glass funnel or glass funnel with a mouth large enough to allow at least
1 in. of the filter mesh to protrude should be used to support the filter. The funnel should be
fluted or have a large open mouth in order to support the paint filter yet not interfere with the
movement, to the graduated cylinder, of the liquid that passes through the filter mesh-
4-3 Ring stand and ring, or tripod.
4.4 Graduated cy finder or beaker -- 100-mL.
5.0 REAGENTS
5.1 None.

November 2004

DocuSign Envelope ID:41675089-B1D7-4D4A-B1DC-EFBB8CB01807
6.0 SAMPLE COLLECTION, PRESERVATION, AND HANDLING
A 100-mL or 100-9 representative sample is required for the test. If it is not possible to
obtain a sample of 100 mL or 100 g that is sufficiently representative of the waste, the analyst
may use larger size samples in multiples of 100 mL or 100 g, i.e., 200, 300, 400 mL or g.
However, when larger samples are used, analysts shall divide the sample into 100-mL or 100-9
portions and test each portion separately. if any portion contains free liquids, the entire sample
is considered to have free liquids. If the sample is measured volumetrically, then it should lack
major air spaces or voids.
7.0 PROCEDURE
7.1 Assemble test apparatus as shown in Figure 1.
7.2 Place sample in the filter. A funnel may be used to provide support for the paint
filter. If the sample is of such light bulk density that it overflows the filter, then the sides of the
filter can be extended upward by taping filter paper to the inside of the filter and above the
mesh. Settling the sample into the paint filter may be facilitated by lightly tapping the side of the
filter as it is being filled.
7.3 In order to assure uniformity and standardization of the test, material such as
sorbent pads or pillows which do not conform to the shape of the paint filter should be cut into
small pieces and poured into the filter. Sample size reduction may be accomplished by cutting
the sorbent material with scissors, shears, a knife, or other such device so as to preserve as
much of the original integrity of the sorbent Fabric as possible. Sorbents enclosed in a fabric
should be mixed with the resultant fabric pieces. The particles to be tested should be reduced
smaller than 1 cm (i.e_ should be capable of passing through a 9.5 mm (0.375 inch) standard
sieve). Grinding sorbent materials should be avoided as this may destroy the integrity of the
sorbent and produce many "fine particles" which would normally not be present.
7.4 For brittle materials larger than 1 cm that do not conform to the filter, light crushing
to reduce oversize particles is acceptable if it is not practical to cut the material. Materials such
as clay, silica gel, and some polymers may fall into this category.
7.5 Allow sample to drain for 5 min into the graduated cylinder.
7.6 if any portion of the test material collects in the graduated cylinder in the 5-min
period, then the material is deemed to contain free liquids for purposes of 40 CFR 264.314 and
265.314.
8.0 QUALITY CONTROL
8.1 Duplicate samples should be analyzed on a routine basis.
9.0 METHOD PERFORMANCE
9.1 No data provided.
10.0 REFERENCES
10.1 None provided.
