Subject: One Time Disposal of Approximately 8 Yd3 of Carbon Steel
Pipe Sandblast Residue at the Henderson County Sanitary
Landfill, (Permit #45-01).
Dear Mr. Young:
The Solid Waste Management Division has received a request for
characterization of the subject waste. Based upon the submitted
information, the waste appears to be non -hazardous. The Solid
Waste Management Division has no objection to the sanitary landfill
disposal of this waste, if in accordance with the conditions listed
below:
1. The owner/operator of the landfill approves the disposal.
2. The waste contains no free liquids and can be confined,
compacted, and covered in accordance with the Solid Waste
Management Rules (15A NCAC 13B).
3. Approval for sanitary landfill disposal is explicitly
limited to a "one-time" basis. Further approval by this
office will require submitted of a new Waste
Determination form, and (if applicable), new analytical
data.
Failure to meet these conditions may result in revocation of
this approval, and subsequently, an administrative penalty. If you
have further questions or comments concerning this matter, please
contact this office at (919) 733-0692.
Your letter of June 3, 1993 which accompanied the request for
waste determination asked that consideration be given for two
alternatives to landfilling this waste. Those other options were

Re: Review Of Ground Water Monitoring Program At The Henderson
County Sanitary Landfill (Permit #45-01)
Dear Mr. Thompson,
This past November Larry Rose of the Solid Waste Section made a
site visit to the Henderson County Landfill in order to inspect the
ground -water monitoring wells, split ground and surface water samples
with PACE, Inc., and take some soil samples from an area where ground
water had been seeping from a road cut. This letter is to report our
evaluation of the monitoring program at the Henderson County Landfill
based on the field observations and a review of the data from the
sampling event.
The sample results did not indicate any significant violations
of State Groundwater Standards. Iron and Manganese were reported at
some sampling locations at levels that exceed the water quality
standards. However, since these are secondary drinking water
standards that relate to taste, odor, and staining rather than to
increased health risks, these elevated levels do not appear to pose
any threat to the public health or the environment. The slightly
elevated levels of some inorganic parameters and trace amounts of
some organic constituents do indicate some degradation of water
quality. Based on existing data, there are no violations of ground
water quality standards that would mandate further investigation.
The soil samples from the road cut where some ground water
seepage has occurred do not indicate the presence of ground water
contamination. The constituents reported are present at levels that
fall within the normal range for sediments in this geologic
environment.
After the field inspection of the monitoring system, more
serious questions were raised regarding the adequacy of the present
monitoring wells to effectively monitor the effect of the landfilling
activities on the ground water of the area. There are significant
problems with the location, depth, and design of the existing

monitoring wells. The wells are located too far away from the waste
boundary and are installed too deep to be effective in monitoring the
impact of the landfill on the uppermost aquifer. Also, there are
some problems with the design and construction of the wells. For
example, the annular space around each well is not grouted to the
ground surface.
Henderson County should obtain a consultant to evaluate the
existing monitoring system and propose an upgraded monitoring system
that will effectively monitor the impact of the landfilling activity
on the uppermost aquifer in the area. It is also important that the
monitoring wells conform to the North Carolina Well Construction
Standards (15A NCAC 2C). If the facility will still be in operation
on October 9, 1993, there are additional requirements that will be
necessary to .fulfill new State and Federal rules resulting from the
RCRA Subtitle D regulations.
The County or its consultant should contact the Solid Waste
Section for technical assistance in determining what is necessary for
the upgraded ground -water monitoring system. Within the next few
months a monitoring plan should be submitted to the Section for our
approval, and then the approved new wells should be installed.
We appreciate Henderson County's interest in the water quality
monitoring program at the landfill. Thank you for your cooperation
in improving the monitoring system in order to provide effective
protection of public health and the environment. If you have any
questions or comments regarding this letter, please contact the Solid
Waste Section at (919) 733-0692.

Subject: Henderson County Landfill

In reference to the water quality violations below the Henderson
County Landfill, Division of Environmental Management representatives
have taken follow-up samples at tributaries originating at the
landfill. The contamination leaving the site was at an acceptable
level based on recent stream samples. We will continue to monitor the
water quality in this area. Please be aware that further violations
may result in enforcement actions.
As you know, the upper pond at the landfill provides a less than
ideal method of controlling sediment. The upper pond is of concern
due to the tributary running through the pond. Given the problems
with the design of the sediment ponds, it is recommended that the
County make improvements to the design and operation of the ponds to
prevent further water quality violations. We would like to receive a
copy of the planed improvements and an opportunity to provide comments
prior to construction or implementation of the improvements.
Your cooperation in dealing with the sedimentation ponds in the
past and in the future is greatly appreciated by this Division. If
you have any questions concerning this matter, or would like to
discuss plans for improvement, do not hesitate to contact the Division
of Environmental Management, Water Quality Section, the Division of
Land Resources, Land Quality Section, or the Division of Solid Waste
Management, Solid Waste Section at the phone number and address listed

Mr. Jim Patterson with your staff has requested this letter to
address the current status with the Henderson County Stoney
Mountain Road Landfill. It is our intention to continue operating
this landfill past October 9, 1993 in accordance with applicable
State, Federal, and County rules and regulations. We have
requested our consultant William G. Lapsley and Associates, P.A. to
develop a proposal for the preparation of the Transition Plan. It
is our understanding the Transition Plan is due by April 9, 1994.
At this time a specific closure date for the landfill has not been
established. Henderson County is in the process of siting a new
landfill and we do plan to close the Stoney Mountain Road Landfill
on or before the required January 1, 1998 closure date. At this
time with the current solid waste load and operating conditions we
should be able to remain in the current site until at least mid to
late 1996. As you are aware conditions in the solid waste industry
are constantly changing and the 1996 expected closure date could be
extended. We intend to try and pin point a more exact closure date
with the development of the Transition Plan.
We hope this information is sufficient as requested by Mr.
Patterson. It should be noted that your staff has not responded to
our request to utilize an alternative daily cover and return to the
1982 approved fill contours allowing filling of the air space above
our recycling center. It is our intention to proceed with this
plan of action unless directed otherwise. Should there be any
questions do not hesitate to contact our office at 704-697-4505.

Dear Mr. Owen:
SafeWaste is currently offering our mobile microwave medical waste treatment service to several
hospitals in Henderson County. This service consists of utilizing the ABB Sanitec Microwave
Disinfection System to shred and disinfect medical waste into a safe confetti -like material ready for
landfill disposal. As we have discussed, we are seeking your approval to dispose of the treated waste
in the Henderson County Landfill.
The microwave process has been examined carefully by the State of North Carolina and has recently
been written into the North Carolina Administrative Code as an acceptable treatment technology.
Attached is a letter from the Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources that explains
those rules.
Recently, we signed a contract with Memorial Mission Hospital in Asheville and the Buncombe
County Landfill has confirmed that they will accept the treated waste.
Enclosed is some information about our treatment process for your review. We look forward to the
opportunity to bring to Henderson County a progressive and environmentally sound method for
dealing with the medical waste problem. Please let us know if it is acceptable to dispose of the
treated waste in your landfill, so we can advise the hospitals that are potential users of our service. If
you require any other information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.
Best regards

area ° currently being used _'.`as ' the 1. recycling. center for .continued
'fill area under ` there current :permit,'.
The current permit' issued in 1982 approved.a landfill base
which includes the current recycling center. -The recycling center
was constructed on top of,existing waste. Recent borings in this
area revealed waste at.,
12 .feet below the current surface:. Iri 1986'
a lateral expansion 'on the north•face of the ,landfill was approved
extending the base slightly to the north;and._allowing,.a haul road
to be constructed around the north :face. The combined base. line is
shown on attached site plan -which reflects the 1982 approved'base
and the 1986 expansion. .By locating the recycling center and haul.
road within the base of the landfill -the County is losing available
fill space originally, approved in ,1982 . That being 'the 'air space
above. the recycling center since side .slopes 'have been:shifted
inward from the '1982 approved plan:. The top,elevation,of the 1982

expansion permit modification.
It is planned to -relocate the recycling center and haul road
freeing up the space approved in 1982 for continued fill area. We
have estimated that the.County could gain an-additional'year beyond
current mode of operation with the use ,of this area. The,current

Dear ,Ms . i�ioytt
In follow up to our meeting of 'April'23, 1993, I would like to
summarize those areas that we discussed., with respect to the
Henderson County Solid Waste Programs Our meeting was very
informative and the ' information 'gathered. will be helpful. to our
firm assisting Henderson,County.with their 'solid waste programs.
The • two areas which 'we discussed . were,,the ;,selection: of a ,new solid
.waste "landfill and the utilization` of , the existing landfill site on
Stoney Mountain Road.
NEW'SITE SELECTION PROCESS
William G. Lapsley and Associates, P.A., has completed a site
selection study for a new landfill.,site. ,The entire County was
reviewed and siting criteria' applied resulting in five of the top
.sites being presented,to the Henderson County Commissioners in a
final report. `The County has taken this 'information and will soon
be contacting property owners.on at least two of the top sites for
permission to conduct further on -site, evaluations.,. It is
anticipated that we"will be .ready for the State. Task Force to look
at these sites in early July, 1993.., It is requested that time be
scheduled. for a visit by the Task Force to. Henderson County in
early July. By that time we fee'l that information will be
available on the proposed 'sites such that' the Task Force 'can make
recommendations concerning the suitability, . of these 'sites for the
new._solid waste disposal facility..
SITE UTILIZATION STUDY

Phase I Initial Monitoring
Dear Mr. Thompson:
Our staff has had several conversations with Lapsley & Associates concerning the scope of the
gas migration problem and the investigation to define the problem. The Section generally agrees
with the scope of the initial monitoring plan as described in Lapsley's 16 Dec 92 letter with the
following additions:
1. The area of investigation should be expanded to include the subject property line
from A -A', the monitoring zone, as illustrated on the attached map.
2. Monitoring probes should be established at or inside the existing property line and
equally spaced to measure gas concentrations along the monitoring zone. It may
be useful to install probes in the landfill near, the hot area to assess the gas
generating potential of the landfill.
3. Data gathered from the probes at each monitoring event should include:
♦ barometric pressure and weather conditions
♦ probe pressure (inches of water)
4. Soil boring investigations should extend to the depth of the water table, landfill
excavation (if known), or bedrock, whichever is encountered first.

5. The scope of investigation should identify any potential preferred paths (natural
and man-made) for gas migration, i.e. pipeline or utility trenches, continuous gas
permeable soil zones, etc. Boring logs, probe completion records, and other
pertinent information should be documented and submitted with the proposed
remediation or corrective action plan.
6. The recommendations in Mr. Patterson's 16 Feb 93 letter should be included in
this investigation.
The option of adding property along the monitoring zone discussed previously could be
considered as part of a corrective action plan, but would not affect the current requirement to
define the scope of the migration problem. Please advise Mr. Patterson as you proceed with this
investigation.

On December 16, 1992, a proposed phase I monitoring plan to begin a landfill
gas remediation 'plan at the Henderson County Landfill was submitted to your
Division with request that it be reviewed and authorization issued to proceed.
To date there has been no response to the proposed plan of action by the Division
of Solid Waste Management. We have discussed this with Mr. Jim Patterson of your
office and advised him of our plans to proceed with the Phase I monitoring.
We have recommended to the County that they purchase a landfill gas monitor.
It is our understanding that they are proceeding with the acquisition of a
monitor. We have received quotes on the installation of landfill gas monitoring
probes from one Company and are planning to obtain additional quotes. Once final
costs are determined for the monitoring probes, we are recommending that the
County proceed with their installation as planned. In addition to the plan
submitted December 16, 1992, we are planning to install an additional probe in
the ,area of the animal shelter which is experiencing some detection of gas. The
site of the animal shelter is such that it maybe above old waste fill areas.
Borings into this area are to be conducted to determine the location of waste,
if any.
The input from your Division on our landfill gas remediation plans is
needed: The County feels that they need to proceed with remediation and would
like your input prior to installation of the monitoring probes. It is requested
that the Division provide comments on the proposed plan of action by March 14,
1993. Should there be any questions.regarding this matter, do not hesitate to
contact our office at 704-697-7334.

In response to your letter of December 11, 1992, requesting
additional time to complete the Phase I methane monitoring and
proposed remediation plan at the Henderson County Landfill, we are
clarifying the "Compliance Order Without Administrative Penalty" as
follows:
1. Phase I is an initial monitoring program which will
assess the magnitude of the violation. The monitoring
program is to be evaluated and verified by a licensed
professional engineer. The professional Engineer's
proposals for probe locations and testing protocol shall
be submitted to Gary Ahlberg, Environmental Engineer,
N.C. Solid Waste Section, P.O. Box 27687, Raleigh, NC
27611 for review/approval not later than February 15,
1993.
2. Phase III will constitute the development and
implementation of a remediation plan based on Phase I
data. A compliance date for Phase II will be established
at the time Phase I data is reviewed by the Section.

Dear Mr. Patterson:
DAVID F. THOMPSON
COUNTY MANAGER
This office is in receipt of your November 2, 1993 letter concerning approval of the
Phase I Landfill Gas Remediation Study. However, your approval of plans for
construction, we feel, is premature.
As you were informed by our consultant Mr. Gary T. Tweed, P.E. on November 16,
1993, the preliminary site plan for a gas collection system and flare station is not the full
system design. The County is just now finalizing contractual agreements with Cargan
Resources, Inc. and as indicated in their September 29, 1993 letter (copy attached) to Mr.
Gary Ahlberg with your Raleigh .office, it is not expected to have the system designs
completed, approved, and construction completed before the second quarter of 1994.
On November 15. 1993, our staff held a full day meeting with Cargan Resources;
Inc. to finalize agreements. It was stated at this meeting that Cargan Resources, Inc.
plans to submit final design plans to your office very soon and, assuming approvals come
quickly, have the system under construction in January, 1994. It is hoped to have the
system completed and remediation underway by the end of April, 1994. This schedule
is contingent upon receipt of approvals, air permits, weather, etc. The County is pursuing
the installation of this project as quickly as possible. Substantial funds ($12,000 per
month for the first five years) are to be expended by the County for the construction and
operation of this system. We feel that this landfill gas remediation system could become
a model for future projects by other communities and care is being taken to insure the
installation of the best system possible.

Ref: Phase I, Landfill Gas Migration Assessment and
Monitoring Program, Landfill Gas Remediation Plan,
Stony Mountain 'Road Landfill, Henderson County, NC.
Dear Mr. Ahlberg:
We have concluded the captioned Phase I Program and
would like to provide you with a copy of our report and
supportive field data. This package of material includes
the following:
1. Our engineers report on the program with recommendations
for corrective action;
2. A report of two weeks continuous monitoring of the
landfill;
3. A report of well monitoring for the months of July and
August. September's report will be ready In one week, and
results will be forwarded to your office;
4. A permeability report of core samples taken from five
perimeter wells, provided by Core Labs;
5. A Landfill Gas generation model projecting emission
rates for the next 15 years;
6. A specification sheet on the Landfill Gas testing
equipment employed in our program; and,
7. A conceptual plan Indicating three landfill zones
requiring active migration control to achieve compliance
limits at specific perimeter monitor points.
There are several important aspects of our work which I
would like to briefly highlight.
POST OFFICE BOX 1078 CAMDEN, SOUTH CAROLINA 29020 PHONEIFAX: (803) 432-7501
1. Three areas on the landfill have been identified which
exceed the compl,.iance limits of 40 CFR 258.23, of the
Federal Code, and 15A NCAC 13B .1626 paragraph (4), of the
North Carolina Code, both dealing with Explosive Gases
Control. The affected areas include the northern boundary
centered on perimeter monitor well MP-5, the northwest
perimeter at MP-4, and the area underlying the Animal
Shelter at MP-2.
2. The estimiated daily Landfill Gas (LFG) generation rate
is 450,000 Standard Cubic Feet (SCF) per day from
approximately 770,000 tons of impounded waste. This LFG
rate should peak in the year 2000 at 650,000 SCF per day.
If another 300,000 tons of waste is added over the next
three years, then the LFG rate should peak at 1,000,000 SCF
per day by the year 2006.
3. Vacuum pressure tests were used to calculate impoundment
permeability at well site LP-6 (3.2*10 to -3 power). This
information together with core analysis (enclosed) from 5
monitor wells indicate sufficient permeability to allow for
relative ease of gas migration, unless inhibited by surface
features or subsurface structures.
4. To affect control of gas migration at the specified
zones and to reduce perimeter gas concentrations to
compliance limits, protective vacuum barriers under the
influence of LFG wells should be installed. Gas production
from these wells should equal approximately 60% of the
generation rate of the landfill to achieve desired control.
The primary means of destroying the gas should be with a
flare. Produced liquids should be destroyed by spray
injection into the flare shroud. Once control has been
established and compliance limits achieved, gas marketing
may prove feasible as a means of remediation cost subsidy.
5. The remediation system should initially employ a
variable speed electric motor and controls powering a
Positive displacement blower with output In the 500 CFM

Subject: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Henderson County Landfill
Henderson County
Dear Mr. Thompson:
The Henderson County landfill has beendocumented violating North
Carolina Water Quality Standards for the following parameters:
Cadmium, Chromium, Lead, Mercury and Turbidity. On March 18, 1993,
representatives from this Agency investigated potential water quality
violations from the Henderson County landfill. Three of the
sedimentation/erosion control ponds were inspected, the two lower ponds
as you enter the landfill and the upper pond on the far side of the
landfill away from DOT'S property. The two lower ponds were full of
sediment and were discharging turbid water into the creek. The upper
pond's valve at the bottom of the riser was completely open, and
discharging turbid water even though this pond still had sediment holding
capacity. Water Quality representatives discussed these conditions with
the Landfill Supervisor and requested immediate action. Considering the
potential water quality problems that were occurring, Land Quality
Section and Solid Waste Management Division were notified.
Two months later on May 11, 1993, hither investigation revealed
that the problem was not corrected and waF-r_ samples were obtained.
Samples were obtained on and below tribiitaries that originate at the
landfill. The samples taken _indicate se rirn,q water quality violations.
The existence of the above described water quality violations,
subjects the responsible party to enforcement procedures. Section
143-215.6 of the General Statutes of North Carolina details enforcement
procedures which may be implemented. Each day this violation occurs
constitutes a separate offense for which penalties up to $10,000.00 per
day per water quality standard violation can be assessed.

The landfill needs serious attent-.i-n in order to satisfy water
quality considerations now and in the fnt-m-e. Given that this Agency
plans to continue water quality sampling, fines can continue to be
assessed for each violation. It is recommended that renewed
attention be directed to the sedimentation/erosion control program so
that the permanent control of sediment and contaminants from the landfill
can be addressed and that further contaminati-on of water quality can be
avoided.

The referenced notice of violation was received August 5, 1993
from your Department concerning water quality violations for
Cadmium, Chromium, Lead, Mercury, and Turbidity. We are very
concerned that you feel that the landfill is in violation and offer
the following information:
1. As required by the Division of Solid Waste and the Division of
Earth Resources, the sediment control aspects of the landfill
require periodic dredging of sediment control basins on the site.
These basins were in the process of being cleaned during the visits
by your staff. Currently, the basins are being dredged as needed
on the order of two to three times per year. Since the basins are
impoundments of surface water drainage courses on the site there
will be some increase in turbidity during these cleaning
activities. Since only the two lower ponds are requiring cleaning,
it is felt that these basins can be cleaned in such a manner as to

dredged and functioning very well in maintaining sediments on site.
2. As part of the site monitoring program, there are four on -site
ground water monitoring wells and four streams which are sampled
twice per year for various parameters including those addressed in
your notice., None of the self -monitoring data indicate any levels
of contamination as indicated in the notice. It is requested that
copies of this monitoring data be sent to our office for review
along with specific sampling locations identified. In addition, it
would be helpful to know if samples were filtered for sediment
prior to analysis. Our current self -monitoring program has shown

Phase I Initial Monitoring
Dear Mr. Thompson:
Our staff has had several conversations with Lapsley & Associates concerning the scope of the
gas migration problem and the investigation to define the problem. The Section generally agrees
with the scope of the initial monitoring plan as described in Lapsley's 16 Dec 92 letter with the
following additions:
1. The area of investigation should be expanded to include the subject property line
from A -A', the monitoring zone, as illustrated on the attached map.
2. Monitoring probes should be established at or inside the existing property line and
equally spaced to measure gas concentrations along the monitoring zone. It may
be useful to install probes in the landfill near. the hot area to assess the gas
generating potential of the landfill.
3. Data gathered from the probes at each monitoring event should include:
♦ barometric pressure and weather conditions
♦ probe pressure (inches of water)
4. Soil boring investigations should extend to the depth of the water table, landfill
excavation (if known), or bedrock, whichever is encountered first.

5. The scope of investigation should identify any potential preferred paths (natural
and man-made) for gas migration, i.e. pipeline or utility trenches, continuous gas
permeable soil zones, etc. Boring logs, probe completion records, and other
pertinent information should be documented and submitted with the proposed
remediation or corrective action plan. r
6. The recommendations in Mr. Patterson's 16 Feb 93 letter should be included in
this investigation.
The option of adding property along the monitoring zone discussed previously could be
considered as part of a corrective action plan, but would not affect the current requirement to
define the scope of the migration problem. Please advise Mr. Patterson as you proceed with this
investigation.

Dear Mr. Thompson:
William L. Meyer
Director
In response to your letter of December 11, 1992, requesting
additional time to complete the Phase I methane monitoring and
proposed remediation plan at the Henderson County Landfill, we are
clarifying the "Compliance Order Without Administrative Penalty" as
follows:
1. Phase I is an initial monitoring program which will
assess the magnitude of the violation. The monitoring
program is to be evaluated and verified by a licensed
professional engineer. The professional Engineer's
proposals for probe locations and testing protocol shall
be submitted to Gary Ahlberg, Environmental Engineer,
N.C. Solid Waste Section, P.O. Box 27687, Raleigh, NC
27611 for review/approval not later than February 15,
1993.
2. Phase IIJI will constitute the development and
implementation of a remediation plan based on Phase I
data. A compliance date for Phase II will be established
at the time Phase I data is reviewed by the Section.

This office is in receipt of your November 2, 1993 letter concerning approval of the
Phase I Landfill Gas r;emediation Study. However, your approval of plans for
construction, we feel, is premature.
As you were informed by our consultant Mr. Gary T. Tweed, P.E. on November 16,
1993, the preliminary site plan for a gas collection system and flare station is not the full
system design. The County is just now finalizing contractual agreements with Cargan
Resources, Inc. and as indicated in their September 29, 1993 letter (copy attached) to Mr.
Gary Ahlberg with your Raleigh office, it is not expected to have the system designs
completed, approved, and construction completed before the second quarter of 1994.
On November 15, 1993, our staff held a full day meeting with Cargan Resources,
Inc. to finalize agreements. It was stated at this meeting that Cargan Resources, Inc.
plans to submit final design plans to your office very soon and, assuming approvals come
quickly, have the system under construction in January, 1994. It is hoped to have the
system completed and remediation underway by the end of April, 1994. This schedule
is contingent upon receipt of approvals, air permits, weather, etc. The County is pursuing
the installation of this project as quickly as possible. Substantial funds ($12,000 per
month for the first five years) are to be expended by the County for the construction and
operation of this system. We feel that this landfill gas remediation system could become
a model for future projects by other communities and care is being taken to insure the
installation of the best system possible.

Dear Mr. Ahlberg:
We have concluded the captioned Phase I Program and
would like to provide you with a copy of our report and
supportive field data. This package of material includes
the following:
I. Our engineers report on the program with recommendations
for corrective action;
2. A report of two weeks continuous monitoring of the
landfill;
3. A report of well monitoring for the months of July and
August. September's report will be ready In one week, and
results will be forwarded to your office;
4. A permeability report of core samples taken from five
perimeter wells, provided by Core Labs;
5. A Landfill Gas generation model projecting emission
rates for the next 15 years;
6'. A specification sheet on the Landfill Gas testing
equipment employed in our program; and,
7. A conceptual plan Indicating three landfill zones
requiring active migration control to achieve compliance
limits at specific perimeter monitor points.
There are several important aspects of our work which I
would like to briefly highlight.
POST OFFICE BOX T078 CAMDEN, SOUTH CAROLdNA 2<9020 PHONEIFAX: (303) 432.7501
1. Three areas on the landfill have been identified which
exceed the compliance limits of 40 CFR 258.23, of the
Federal Code, and 15A NCAC 13B .1626 paragraph (4), of the
North Carolina Code, both dealing with Explosive Gases
Control. The affected areas include the northern boundary
centered on perimeter monitor well MP-5, the northwest
perimeter at MP-4, and the area underlying the Animal
Shelter at MP-2.
2 The estimated daily Landfill Gas (LFG) generation rate
is 450,000 Standard Cubic Feet (SCF) per day from
approximately 770,000 tons of impounded waste. This LFG
rate should peak in the year 2000 at 630,000 SCF per day.
If another 300,000 tons of waste is added over the next
three years, then the LFG rate should peak at 1,000,000 SCF
per day by the year 2006.
3. Vacuum pressure tests were used to calculate impoundment
permeability at well site LP-6 (3.2'r10 to -3 power). This
information together with core analysis (enclosed) from 5
monitor wells indicate sufficient permeability to allow for
relative ease of gas migration, unless inhibited by surface
features or subsurface structures.
4. To affect control of gas migration at the specified
zones and to reduce perimeter gas concentrations to
compliance limits, protective vacuum barriers under the
influence of LFG wells should be installed. Gas production
from these wells should equal approximately 60, of the
generation rate of the landfill to achieve desired control.
The primary means of destroying the gas should be with a
flare. Produced liquids should be destroyed by spray
injection into the flare shroud. Once control has been
established and compliance limits achieved, gas marketing
may prove feasible as a means of remediation cost subsidy.
5. The remediation system should initially employ a
variable speed electric motor and controls powering a
Positive displacement blower with output in the 500 CF1rf
range at 10-12 psig. The gas flare should be sized with
turn down capability to accommodate the entire range of
blower output. Maximum operating temperature of the flare
should be 1850 degrees Fahrenheit, and allow sufficient
retention time to achieve 98% destruction of Volatile
Organic Compounds.
6. Flared gas should be measured by digital flow meter.
Several additional monitor wells should be sited and
installed. All 'monitor wells should be tested daily at the
commencement of remedial operations until monitor wells are
within limits. Thereafter monitor wells should be tested
weekly to assure continued compliance.
We are concluding our agreements with Henderson County
before beginning the actual design and construction of the
proposed system. When our first draft of plans and
specifications is completed, we will provide same to you for
comment. We hope to commence remedial operations early In
the second quarter of 1994. Should you have any question
or comments on our work thus far, or with what has been
outlined above, please advise.

-Dear Mr. Ahlberg:
On December 16, 1992, a proposed phase I monitoring plan to begin a landfill
gas remediation *plan.'.at the Henderson County, Landfill was submitted to your
Division with request that it be reviewed and authorization issued to proceed.`
To date there has been no response to the proposed plan of action by the Division
of Solid Waste Management. we have discussed this with Mr. Jim Patterson of your
office and advised him of our plans to proceed with the Phase I monitoring.
We have recommended to the County that they purchase a landfill gas monitor.
it is our understanding that they are proceeding with the acquisition of a
monitor. We have received quotes on the installation of landfill gas monitoring
probes from one Company and are planning to obtain additional quotes.. Once final
costs are determined for the monitoring probes, we are recommending that the
County proceed .with their installation as planned. In addition to the plan
submitted December 16, 1992, we are planning to install an additional probe in
the•area of the animal shelter which is experiencing some detection of gas. The
site of the animal shelter is such that it may be above old waste fill areas.
Borings into this area are to be conducted to determine the location of waste,
if any.
The input from your Division on our landfill gas remediation plans is
needed' The County feels that they need to proceed with remediation and would
like your input prior to installation of the monitoring probes. It is requested
that the Division provide comments on the proposed plan of action by March 14,
1993. Should there be any questions regarding this matter, do not hesitate to
contact our office at 704-697-7334.

RE: ' Combustible Gas Monitoring at Henderson Co. Animal Shelter
Dear Mr. Thompson:
In response to a request by Mr. Eldon Owen, Henderson County Solid Waste Director,
I conducted combustible gas monitoring inside the Henderson County Animal Shelter (located
on property at the Henderson County Landfill location) on the afternoon of February 11,
1993. No combustible gases were detected in any of the rooms of the shelter "proper," but
combustible gas was detected at levels up to 40 % lower explosive limits in the two rooms on
either side of the main lobby of the building where the plumbing pipes come through the
concrete slab. Readings indicating the presence of combustible gases were obtained only
when the monitoring probe was placed directly on the pipes.
Additional monitoring should be continued at the Animal Shelter on a regular basis and
efforts should be taken to ensure that the building is well ventilated for employee safety.
Remediation of any combustible gas problems will be based on an assessment derived
from the monitoring data obtained at this location.
Please call should you have any questions.
Sincerely,
James E. Patterson

Ref: Phase I Landfill Gas Investigation
Stoney Mountain Road Landfill
Henderson County, N.C.
Dear Mr. Ahlberg:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Phase I Landfill Gas Investigation of the
Henderson County ..Stoney Mountain Road Landfill to be conducted by Cargan
Resources, Inc:It is anticipated that Cargan Resources will soon be installing
the landfill gas monitoringwell probes and begin the Phase I monitoring. This
plan of action has been developed over the past few months and expanded to cover
a much larger` area of the landfill than originally anticipated. Subsequent
investigations of the landfill migration indicated that landfill gas movement at
the site is over a larger area than indicated by the vegetation damage .on the
northeast portion of the site. The planned investigation is to take in the
northern side of the landfill from the animal shelter to beyond the upper zone
where original migration was detected.
Cargan Resources, Inc. will conduct the investigation under review of this
firm 'and develop the Phase II remediation plan of action. It is felt that the
Phase I remediation monitoring will be completed by the end of June, 1993, with
a final report to be completed by August, 1993. It is felt that with concurrence
of your office that a Phase II remediation plan can be developed and in place by
early 1994.
It is requested that you review the planned Phase I ,landfill gas
investigation plan. Should you feel that any area of concern has not been
addressed and the plan is not adequate, then please contact us immediately.
Otherwise, Henderson County and Cargan Resources, Inc. plan to proceed with this
plan of action. Should there be any questions or if you need assistance, please
contact our office at 704-697-7334.
Since ely yours,
ii� v '�
