ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. Purpose of this inspection was to follow up on the closure of this facility and also to provide technical assistance to Mr. Casavant. 2. The permit for the Stump Hole LCID landfill expired in September of 2018. Allan Casavant, owner, decided to begin closure process at the landfill instead of applying for a permit renewal. There has been recent communication with Mr. Casavant about submitting the completed final paperwork for closure but it has yet to
be submitted. Please do so ASAP once corrective actions have been addressed. Also, please ensure the LCIDLF has the required depth of soil cover for closure, which should be reflected in the engineering document that will be submitted to Section Permitting. 3. Be sure and continue to remove unapproved wastes. Most items at this time seem to be outside Edge of
Waste (EOW). Nothing should be on the landfill or inside EOW markers. New EOW markers have been added. T-posts were visible and represented the EOW, according to Mr. Casavant. It should be determined if all these markers are EOW markers and in correct locations. Inspector will need to revisit for closure and verify the distance of buffers using these EOW markers. Permit Condition No. 10, Part 1 of Attachment 3 of the Permit to Operated dated September 16, 2013 (DIN 18927) - The permanent markers that accurately delineate the waste disposal boundary must be maintained.
The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. 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.

4. Some areas were recently seeded after soil was brought in and spread. Good job. Mr. Casavant stated that a water truck was to be brought in to irrigate the seeded areas previously. This seems to have worked on most of the bare areas. The more difficult areas of seeding, a matting was brought in and better soil was added and reseeded. Shrubs have been removed and most of the area has been mowed. Good job.
Matting and reseeded.

Waste picked up from landfill to be removed. Document disposal.
6. During last visit a couple pallets of motor oil in five gallon buckets were being stored just outside EOW. These waste have been removed, good job.
7. If not already done so, landowner should communicate with the Sections Permit Engineer, Ming Chao, and with Moore County, to ensure all requirements that are needed for closure. Owner should communicate with Moore County Planning and Zoning for any permits or actions they may require. Also, DEMLR should be contacted, (910-433-3300 Tim LaBounty) in regards to any mining, sedimentation and erosion control and storm water requirements. 8. The Section has not received the require documentation to close the site. Once the property is sold, then new owner can apply for a permit at that time if they wish, but the site must be properly closed and in compliance per the rules before submitting a new application for permit. Please bring this site into compliance and submit required closure documentation. Once the issues at this site have been addressed then the Violations can be resolved.
9. Corrective measures are necessary to bring the landfill into compliance and should be completed within 30 day’s receipt of this inspection report. Confirm EOW markers/location and that site is compliant with buffer rules. Requested final closure documents need to be submitted to Section Permitting. Ensure
proper cover and finish establishing grass cover. Cover or remove exposed wastes inside landfill. All Equipment removed from landfill and inside EOW markers. Check with Moore County Solid Waste/Planning and Zoning on closure requirements. Check with DEMLR on closure requirements.
