Approximately 3,000 Yd3 Stockpiled Municipal POTW Wastewater Treatment Sludge at the Henderson County Sanitary Landfill, (Permit ##45-01). Dear Mr. Cooper: The Solid Waste Management Division has received a request for characterization of the subject waste. Based upon the submitted information, the waste is non -hazardous. The Solid Waste Management Division has no objection to the sanitary landfill disposal of the 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. 3. The sludge is to be incorporated into the top six inches (maximum) of the landfill side slope and or dike soil surfaces at agrinomic (7-9 tons/acre) rates. 4. In no case is this sludge to be incorporated into soil which has already been stabilized with plant growth or on areas above disposed wastes which will receive capping at a future time. S. Approval for sanitary landfill disposal is explicitly limited to a "one-time" basis. Further approval by this office will require submittal of a new Waste Determination form, and (if applicable), new analytical data. Please note that this approval will provide only a temporary solution to the disposal of this POTW sludge. A permanent solution would be to restart a land application program not utilizing the landfill. The landfill may place limits on the amount of sludge received based upon available capacity and weather conditions. P.O.

Hunt, Jr., Governor Jonathan B, Howes, Secretary William L. Meyer, Director Mr. teary Corn July 26, 1994 802 Stony Mountain Road Hendersonville, N.C. 28739 ML R RE: Interim Review of Water Quality Monitoring Transition Plan Henderson County Landfill, Permit # 45-01 Dear Mr. Corn, There is limited time available for the Solid Waste Section to review and evaluate the Water Quality Monitoring Plan submitted as part of the Transition Plan. It is not possible to do a full technical review of this plan in time to allow for the upgrading of the monitoring system and the initial sampling episode of the baseline sampling event. Therefore the Solid Waste Section is giving interim authorization for Henderson County to proceed with the upgrade of the ground- water monitoring system at the Henderson County MSWLF facility in general accordance with the proposal submitted in the monitoring plan included as part of the Transition Plan. However, the monitoring system upgrade must meet the following conditions: In addition to the three new monitoring wells proposed, several additional wells are needed to effectively monitor the site. A new background monitoring well needs to be installed that is upgradient of the MSWLF unit. A possible location would be the head of the drainage feature on the north property line above the tub grinder operation. An additional well is needed along the west property boundary just north of the sediment pond. An additional well is needed east of the MSWLF unit, between the MSWLF unit and the drainage feature separating this unit from the old TVA disposal area. An additional well is also needed to monitor the TVA disposal area. This well should be located south of the TVA disposal area, between the disposal area and the drainage feature, in the area between the 2230 and 2240 topographic elevation contours. None of the existing monitoring wells are to be abandoned. However the existing monitoring wells are no longer required to be monitored as part of the detection monitoring system. T'he middle well proposed in the Transition Plan should be moved to a location about 100 feet southeast of the proposed location. P.O.

The monitoring wells are to be constructed according to the specifications in the North Carolina Well Construction Standards (15A NCAC 2C .0108). The monitoring wells are to be constructed according to the specifications in the "North Carolina Water Quality Monitoring Guidance Document For Solid Waste Facilities" as illustrated by the Typical Monitoring Well Schematic" diagram enclosed. The monitoring wells are to be placed in the approved locations in areas free of garbage, refuse, or debris, and in areas not subject to flooding. The monitoring wells are to be drilled to a depth, and the screens placed at vertical locations, that will ensure that future drought conditions, which may lower the water table, will not render the monitoring system ineffective. Generally shallow monitoring wells shall be installed with a 15 foot screen, with the top of the screen set just above the seasonal high water table, unless hydrogeologic conditions justify changes in this design. The sand pack should extend no more than 2 feet above the screen and no more than 1 foot below the screen. A bentonite seal of at least 1.0 foot should be installed above the screened interval. The bentonite shall be allowed adequate time to hydrate prior to grouting up the annular space of the well above the bentonite seal. Monitoring wells shall be thoroughly developed after construction in order to reduce suspended solids, flush out the well, and re-establish equilibrium with the aquifer. In addition to the water quality analytical data, the initial baseline sampling report must include for each monitoring well the following information: a Well Completion Record, Well Schematic Diagram, boring log, hydraulic conductivity value, porosity value, effective porosity value, and the direction and rate of ground- water flow. This initial baseline sampling report must be received in the Solid Waste Section office on or before October 9, 1994. The technical review and determination of adequacy of the Transition Plan Water Quality Monitoring Plan will not be completed until after the initial baseline sampling document has been received and reviewed by the Solid Waste Section. Page 3 The water quality sampling and analysis for the baseline sampling must be done according to the directives in the June 24, 1994, memorandum from the Solid Waste Section to MSWLF owners and operators. If you have any questions or comments regarding this conditional interim authorization to install monitoring wells as necessary to upgrade the monitoring system at the Henderson County Landfill, please contact the Solid Waste Section at (919) 733-0692.

Henderson County 100 North King Street Hendersonville, N.C. 28739 Ref: Erosion Control Improvements Henderson County Stoney Mountain Road Landfill Henderson County, N.C. Dear Mr. Thompson: At the request of Mr. Eldon Owen, Solid Waste Director, an evaluation of erosion control was made July 20, 1994 at the Henderson County Stoney Mountain Road Landfill. In addition an evaluation was conducted of the Levi property. The following observations were made: Levi Property The existing stream that leaves the landfill property which enters the Levi• property crosses under two driveways through drainage culverts on the Levi property. In our opinion both culverts are undersized for the existing stream. The culverts are also partially blocked. The driveway culverts are in the order of 30" to 36". The culvert under Stoney Mountain Road which is upstream is elliptical in shape approximately 48" by 60". Since the culverts are small and blocked they are not carrying the stream flow causing the stream to jump its channel during heavy rains. With the stream carrying sediment from the landfill, sediment has been deposited on the Levi property. It is recommended that 48" culverts at minimum 4% slopes be placed adjacent to the existing driveway culverts on the Levi property. The existing culverts and the stream channel should be cleaned. All vegetation which is blocking the stream channel should be removed. The sediment which has deposited on the Levi property should be covered with suitable soil and reseeded. Sediment along the stream banks should be pulled back where practical. In order for the culverts and stream channel to carry the water flow it will be necessary for the Levi's to maintain the channel and culverts to prevent blockage. Enclosed is a map showing the location of the proposed culverts. Iy �® a• Printed on Recycled Paper Mr. David Thompson July 20, 1994 Page Two Landfill Property The existing sediment basin which was recently repaired appears to be. functioning properly. Even with the recent heavy rains the. basin was, able to handle the storm water flow and is trapping significant sediment. The sediment that has made its way to the Levi property appears to be coming from the Southeast side of the site. The erosion control in this area is minimal and improvements are needed. Enclosed is a site drawing on which additional erosion control measures are proposed. It is recommended that three sediment traps be constructed at the base of the borrow area to aid trapping sediment and improve efficient of larger sediment basins down slope. The flat area at the base of the borrow slope is an ideal area for two sediment traps. Currently drainage from the borrow area is in two directions at each end of the flat area. Sediment traps labeled No. 1 and 2 will provide erosion control from this area. In addition a long wide trench could be extended between the two traps to provide'extensive sediment storage. A third sediment trap is needed to the south of the site to control drainage from the upper reach of.the borrow area which drains in this direction. Below proposed traps 2 and 3 it is recommended that a sediment. basin be installed similar to the existing basin just to the North. The two sediment basins will serve as the primary control for the borrow area.. The proposed new sediment basin has been sized as large as possible for the area not exceeding a dam height of 15 feet. The installation of the smaller sediment traps will aid the operation of the sediment basins. All disturbed areas not under active construction should be seeded. It is recommended that the County immediately install the sediment traps 1, 2, and 3. In addition the work could proceed on the Levi property. The construction of the larger sediment basin should not proceed until State approval has been obtained. I have discussed this plan with the Mr. William C. Beck with the N.C. Division of Earth Resources. We are preparing the necessary designs for the sediment basin for the submittal to the State.

Patterson, Waste Management Specialist N. C. Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources 59 Woodfin Place Asheville, NC 28801 Dear Mr. Patterson: I would like to bring you up to date on the Henderson County landfill gas remediation project and inform you why this project has been delayed. Our last correspondence to you by Mr. Samual Logan of Cargan Resources, Inc. dated June 14 was requesting a certification from you that no permit was required for landfill gas wells. At that time we were planning to begin construction of wells in July. This schedule was contingent upon Cargan Resources obtaining financing. After construction of the preliminary wells on site, Cargan lost a business partner and design engineer causing his company to become financially insecure and finances were not obtained. Mr. Logan sought alternate financing and was denied for several reasons: his company is located in South Carolina; banks would not finance a project located in North Carolina; and the bank wanted Mr. Logan to tie up all his assets in other projects which he could not do. Mr. Logan continued to negotiate with lending institutes unsuccessfully. The County notified him in November that we had to consider his contract with the County null and void and had to consider alternative methods. William G. Lapsley & Associates was hired to oversee the project and our Board approved and set aside $259,000 to finance the perimeter wells, animal shelter and Trace property on a weekly basis and operate the flare station.

NIPPY PAGE INTEGRATED SOLID WASTE PLANNER 697-4877 As you are aware, Henderson County has been operating the Stoney Mountain Road Landfill under a notice of violation from the North Carolina Department of Health, Environment and Natural Resources (NCDEHNR) for methane gas migration. It was for this reason, that Henderson County proposed to enter into a contract for methane gas remediation with Cargan Energy Associates, a Georgia Partnership. A schedule for the remediation project was submitted by you for this project. The remediation project is grossly behind schedule. Site construction was to begin in April with start-up of operations in September. The County has been placed in a situation because of delays in the start-up of the project which could result in further notices of violation from NCDEHNR. It is my understanding from my conversations with you that the reason for the delays has been your inability to obtain financing for the remediation project. As it is now September, 1994, the contracts were sent to you for execution on February 4, 1994, the contracts have never been executed by Cargan Energy Associates, and as of today's date you have still not secured financing for the project, Henderson County can draw only one conclusion: that Cargan Energy Associates is unable to perform the terms of the contract. Henderson County must proceed with this project immediately. We can sustain no further delays. Therefore, please consider this letter your notice that we consider our contracts with you to be null and void. Henderson County must proceed with the project through alternative methods. We appreciate your efforts on our behalf, but we must move ahead. Thank you for working with the County.

The recovered gas will be consumed in an air—inspirated flare as a control method. This flare shall not present an undue nuisance to residents located near the landfill site. A secondary objective of this design is to provide for the on —site disposal of gas condensate which may collect within the headers and manifolding of the gas collection lines, in an environmentally —acceptable manner. Another objective is to provide sufficient flexibility in the system to eventually accommodate Closure requirements once the landfill ceases operations, as well as to prepare the system for beneficial use of the gas when the need arises and when appropriate agreements have been made. 1.2 Methodology The system will be designed in general agreement with federal requirements described in 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW, concerning active landfill gas extraction facilities (expected to be promulgated by the state for conformance in North Carolina). This design will also satisfy operational requirements concerning gas migration control at municipal solid waste landfills, as defined by North Carolina's Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources (DEHNR) under its Subtitle D regulations. Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas Remediation System at Henderson. NC 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal P9422 Page 1 Specific characteristics of the impoundment and cover, as revealed in the test program conducted in the summer of 1993, will be accommodated in the design in order to enhance the capture and control of the generated gas. In particular, the well head and casing will be designed so as to minimize air intrustion in the immediate vicinity of each well. However, if high vacuum levels are needed to ensure effective gas migration control, resulting in the intrusion of some air into the gas stream, nevertheless, the flare will maintain stable combustion as a control method, 1.3 References (1) Memorandum, dated 17 July 1993, SCHRANZE to CARGAN RESOURCES, INC., in which the requirements for the gas remediation program were defined (Report J9325-01);, topographic drawings, provided by LAPSELEY AND ASSOCIATES, (2) to Closure be used as the basic plot plan. 2.0 SCOPE OF ACTIVITIES TASK 1 — ENGINEERING AND DESIGN Gas well and Gas Line Location: The parameters used in to design the wellfield will be: well depth, well casing perforation length, to be introduced at the wellhead, and well —to —well displacement distances. The wellfield will be configured so as to reduce air intrusion potential through the landfill cover, particularly since final cover has not been constructed on —site. When final cover is subsequently tly installed, nstauum le conditions in wellfield may then be operated ato�lgears g ne=aped at that time. In keeping with the actual quantity cause overlap of the zones of addition, specified well —to —well spacing may influence of the wells. This will tend to minimize underground passage of gas through the well "barrier". Gas header line and collection manifold "run" designs will be constrained by the need to minimize "water —lock" potential of gas passageways. The topographic (elevation) information rovilidedlocatthe LAPSELEY drawings will be used to assist in defining g Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas Remediation System at Henderson, NC 9 September 1994 Page 2 SCIRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal P9422 Well Design: A design for the proposed new wells will be developed. The configuration and materials selected for these wells will be in accord with the requirements defined in 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW. Since subsequent drilling operations may reveal unexpected "refusal" conditions, tolerances in well location, well depths, and lengths of perforated well casing, will be defined. It is intended to provide well drilling contingency information, in advance, in order to facilitate the implementation of the wellfield. Each well will be provided with a wellhead fixture containing sampling and monitoring ports to permit the ready measurement of methane, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and flow rate, as well as to permit the installation and use of a flow balancing valve. A design will be provided which will minimize the gas flow disturbances which may occur in the vicinity of the monitoring ports and which will. permit accurate sampling conditions, in order to produce valid measurement results during operation. Blower Facility:_ The extracton blower will accommodate a flow rate range of .Prom three hundred thousand standard cubic feet per day (300,000 sefd) to more than one million sefd. A positive —displacement type blower will be used which will apply vacuum to the wellfield, acting through the gas manifolding and header lines. The pressure of the discharged gas will be sufficiently greater than the ambient level so as to allow unhindered transport of the gas to the flare, as well as to support stable burning of the gas within the flare under all operating conditions. Appropriate manual adjustment of induced vacuum, actual gas flow rate, and discharge pressure, will be provided in the design. A constant speed blower motor will be used, but provision to adjust rotational speed of the blower will be provided by the use of changes in blower and motor sheaves, and driving fan belts during the operations and maintenance phase of the program. This feature minimizes the cost of the blower assembly. The same blower will be capable of providing discharge pressures up to 10 psi (gage) at flow rates exceeding 400 scfm, for subsequent beneficial use of the gas off —site, when needed. The blower will be silenced using a discharge silencer, and will also be protected from operating at undue low flow conditions by the use of an adjustable, spring —loaded recirculation gas line, coupled to a high vacuum cutoff switch. Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas Remediation System at Henderson, NC 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal P9422 Page 3 Flare Facility: An air-inspirated flare will be used to provide stable burning of the landfill gas under a wide range of gas flow and methane content conditions. In addition, the flare will provide stable and safe operation for air intrusion levels up to 25%, by volume, and for a corresponding reduction in methane content from 55% to less than 40%, by volume. For this purpose, a continuous pilot flame facility will be incorporated into the flare and will use propane fuel on start-up, but will switch -over to landfill gas during steady-state conditions in order to allow economic operation. The flare will- not contain any moveable air control shutters, thus simplifying operation. It will include a high -voltage ignition unit to allow ready start-up. Gas Condensate Management: It is planned to capture any gas condensate which may develop in the gas header and manifold lines in order to minimize the potential for water lock in the lines, as well as to protect the blower and flare equipment. This condensate will then be disposed of by introducing it into the flare flame, using an appropriately designed water injection unit.. It is to be noted that federal and state regulations do not permit the reinjection of such condensate back into an unlined landfill, such as is the case for Stoney Mountain. A single condensate trap is planned which will allow gas condensate to drain by gravity from the gas manifolding and header lines, assisted by the applied vacuum induced by blower operation. The trapped water will then be transported by pump action into the flare for thermal disposal. Control System: The design will allow for both on -site and remote startup via telephone control, and will contain sufficient sensors and controls so as to assure safe and environmentally -acceptable operation. Included in the sensing and control functions will be: Vacuum sensing and high vacuum cutoff, Flare pilot ignition and pilot flame sensing, Startup timer control in order to limit the startup sequencing to an acceptably small time increment, _ Automatic startup delay timing control in order to assure a sufficient line purging interval, in case of intermittent electrical power failures, Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas Remediation System at Henderson, NC 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal P9422 Page 4 Flare flame sensing using a combination of pilot flame and main flame sensing as feedback control elements, to perform: pilot gas switchover (propane to landfill gas), high temperature cutoff, and flame quench control (coupled with condensate injection control), . Blower safety provisions via: motor controller electrical current cutoff control, motor bearing thermal cutoff control, and high blower gas discharge temperature cutoff, Condensate sump level control (to activate/deactivate the water sump pump). A telephone Gallup unit will be specified which will allow for remote diagnostic readout; remote reset/restart, and telephone annunciator Gallup capability. The control logic and controllers will be mounted in suitable NEMA 4 control cabinets which will allow for all—weather operation outdoors. Design Submission: Draft construction specifications and drawings will be prepared and submitted to LAPSLEY for review and comment. This information will include: (1) Wellfield design, presented on a topographical plan view of the landfill, which will include well and gas line locations and sizing, blower and flare station location; (2) Gas well construction details, including bore —hole sizing, gas sealing design, and well —head fixture design; (3) Details of the gas condensate capture system, control, and pumping elements, plus the integration of the water injection facility into the flare; (4) Electric line diagram, including service entrance, all related operating controls, ignition system, measurement devices and related control relays, recording and communication facilities, flare safety controls, and pilot gas mixing controls; (5) Flare details, including materials of construction, gas and pilot discharge nozzle configurations, flash supressors, igmition transformers and igniters, pilot gas mixer and pilot gas handover controls; and Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas Remediation System at Henderson, NC 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal P9422 Page 5 (6) Blower and flare pad configuration, including site preparation details, control cabinet locations, startup propane storage and site fencing and security requirements. All drawings will be digitized and configured in the Auto/Cad, or equivalent drawing system. The LAPSELEY topographic drawings will also be digitied via scanning and. used as reference for the wellfield and gas collection line configuration. Once approval is made, the drawings will be finalized and sealed for construction, archiving, and permit submission purposes. TASK 2 — PERMIT SUBMISSIONS Permit requirements will be reviewed with LAPSLEY and HENDERSON COUNTY (COUNTY) to determine the type of permit submissions required for the construction (and subsequent operation) of the gas remediation system. Required "modules" or forms will be executed by SCHRANZE and will be accompanied by technical descriptive information in order to facilitate permit reviews by the regulatory organizations involved. It is planned to extract such information from the design drawings and specifications prepared in Task 1 of this program. However, flare emissions estimates will also be prepared, based on operation and testing information derived from other, similar programs which have been implemented by SCHRANZE. It is anticipated that a state air permit submission and well —drilling permits will be required as a minimum. It is also expected that a submission may be required to be made to the solid waste division of the state regulatory group in order to satisfy the landfill closure requirements, under the existing landfill permit. Since gas condensate disposal is to be made using the flare, information regarding the condensate management design scheme will be executed along with the other information developed for the air permit submission. It is possible that the state may require public notification (or possibly one or more hearings). SCHRANZE will be prepared to participate and serve as the COUNTY's technical advisor, when required. Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal Remediation System at Henderson, NC P9422 Page 6 Bid Evaluation: SCHRANZE will provide support in reviewing each bid package, comparing costs with estimated values, and in screening and assessing the technical capability of candidate contractors. If the bidders offer alternatives to any design feature, SCHRANZE will also provide necessary technical reviews and advise LARSLEY if such alternatives are acceptable. Since LAPSLEY has indicated that specific parcels of woric may be awarded outside the bid process (such as for electrical wiring and service entrance work), SCHRANZE will be prepared, if necessary, to examine sample facilities which have been fabricated by the candidate contractor for other installations in order to evaluate his quality of work. This will also be the suggested procedure for chosing contractors available to perform specialized work elements, such as gas well drilling and casing installation, outside the bid process. TASK 4 — CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SUPPORT Contractor Meetings: SCHRANZE will assist LAPSLEY in conducting job conferences with selected contractors in order to define the final work plan, schedule, field acceptance criteria, and cost reimbursement and related cost control procedures. Information from these meeting will be documented by SCHRANZE for incporporation into a construction and quality assurance acceptance report. Work Inspection Support: SCHRANZE will prepare a quality assurance (QA) report which will contain field acceptance specifications for each of the elements of the gas extraction and control facility. This information will be used by LAPSLEY in performing requisite checking of the various elements of the system during construction. . SCHRANZE plans to be provide on —site inspection support: At the completion of well drilling and casing installation of all gas wells, When the gas gathering lines have been installed, When the blower, flare, and control cabinet have been installed, and At the completion of the construction of the entire system. Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal Remediation System at Henderson, NC P9422 Page 8 In the QA report, procedures for inspection of equipment and subassemblies will be used during unloading. Any damage will be documented and a decision as to the disposition of the affected equipment will be made on —site. Well drilling and gas line installation activities and findings will be recorded by the constractors, using formats acceptable to LAPSLEY and SCHRANZE. Also in the QA report, SCHRANZE will provide documentation relative to safety standards, protection requirements, and remedial action which may be required because of undue exposure to landfill gas. Field Acceptance Testing: Gas flow and quality testing will be performed by SCHRANZE at each wellhead assembly, at selected points in the gas transmission lines, and fore and aft of the blower. The operation of the system will be verified under a variety of flow conditions, using the manual throttling valve which will be incorporated into the design and implemented in the construction of the system. Upset or abnormal conditions will be simulated in order to verify the action of key shut—off equipment This will include: Electrical power interruption, High vacumm condition upstream of the blower, High temperature cutoff conditions, and Startup timer cutoff. SCHRANZE also plans to be present during inspection by state regulatory personnel. The system will be energized in the presence of state personnel and copies of the QA report and construction logs will be made available, as required. Proposal to Design a Landfill Gas Remediation System at Henderson, NC 9 September 1994 SCHRANZE & ASSOICATES Proposal P9422 Page 9 TASIC 5 — OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE TRAINING O&M (Operations and Maintenance) Manual:_ SCHRANZE will provide an 0&M manual which will contain: "As built" drawings, Design specification of the system, Equipment description, nameplate and manufacturer information, and required maintenance procedures, Operating procedures, and Consumable listings and waste (e.g., used oil) disposal requirements. In addition ,SCHRANZE will provide a list of operating equipment required by on —site personnel in their operating checks of the system. Such equipment will include:, Methane meter, Oxygen meter, Boost sampling compressor (for use in sampling under vacuum conditions), Manual flow measuring devices (for individual a pitot/magnehelic gage assembly, Vacuum gages, and Multimeter. gas wells and gas lines well testing), such as Training: SCHRANZE will tutor COUNTY personnel in the operation and maintenance of the system. Part of the O&M procedure will be to execute visitation logs so that operating personnel may have a structured method to use in the program. It is suggested that visitation logs and monthly progress reporting be instituted as a method of maintaining a historical record of operations, encountered problems, and remedial work experienced with the gas extraction system. Such progress reporting is a structured way of proving conformance of the operation of the system to regulatory guidelines and permit requirements.

REPORT ON: Landfill Gas Migration and Its Impact on Trace Property at Northern Boundary of Stony Mountain Road Landfill. << ABSTRACT >> Landfill Gas, which constituents are primarily Methane (generally 56% by volume) and Carbon Dioxide (generally 45% by volume), is known to migrate from its point of specific formation within a Landfill impoundment. Subsurface movement is opportunistic, taking place down a concentration gradient and down a pressure gradient. Current North Carolina Solid Waste Regulations prohibit such uncontrolled gas movement beyond Landfill property boundaries in concentrations greater than 5% Methane, characterized as 100% Lower Explosive Limit. Physical evidence indicates that migration events are ongoing at Stoney Mountain Road Landfill, Henderson County, NC, along the northern Landfill boundary, effecting adjacent property owned by the Trace family. A study was conducted to determine the extent and impact of this migration on Trace buildings and grounds. 1 1. Installation of Landfill Gas Monitor Wells. On May 27, 1994, the day following a site visit with Ms. Nippy Page, Henderson County Solid Waste Planner, Cargan personnel installed 6 Landfill Gas monitor wells on Trace property as indicated on the enclosed diagram. Well. identification and data are as follows: (a) DOCT 001. 4 inch well bore, 10 feet deep. First 6 inches of top soil, followed by 4 feet of dark grey clay, then 5.5 feet of loosely consolidated sandy material. Well completed with 1 and 1/2 inch perforated PVC casing in bottom six feet, with top four feet of solid wall 1 and 1/2 inch PVC casing. The well head was completed with an 18 inch by 1 and 1/2 inch PVC riser and cap. Cavity around casing was filled with 1/2 inch crush stone surrounding the perforated section, then backfilled with well material to within 1 foot of surface then sealed with a 1 foot bentonite plug. (b) DOCT 002. 4 inch well bore, 10 feet deep. First 6 inches of top soil, followed by 4 feet of dark grey clay, then 5.5 feet of loosely consolidated sandy material. Well completed with 1 and 1/2 inch perforated PVC casing in bottom six feet, with top four feet of solid wall 1 and 1/2 inch PVC casing. The well head was completed with an 18 inch by 1 and 1/2 inch PVC riser and cap. Cavity around casing was filled with 1/2 inch crush stone surrounding the perforated section, then backfilled with well material to within 1 foot of surface, then sealed with a 1 foot bentonite plug. (c) DOCT 003. 4 inch well bore, 10 feet deep. First 4 inches of top soil, followed by 3 feet of lighter grey clay, then 6.6 feet of loosely consolidated sandy material. Well completed with 1 and 1/2 inch perforated PVC casing in bottom six feet, with top four feet of solid wall 1 and 1/2 inch PVC casing. The well. head was completed with an 18 inch by 1 and 1/2 inch PVC riser and cap. Cavity around casing was filled with 1/2 inch crush stone surrounding the perforated section, then backfilled with well material to within 1 foot of surface, then sealed with a 1. foot bentonite plug. (d) DOCT 004. 4 inch well bore, 10 feet deep. First 10 inches of top soil, followed by 9.2 feet of loosely consolidated sandy material. Well completed with ]_ and 1/2 inch perforated PVC casing in bottom six feet, with top four feet of solid wall 1 and 1/2 inch PVC casing. The well head was completed with an 18 inch by 1 and 1/2 inch PVC riser and cap. Cavity around casing was filled with 1/2 inch crush stone surrounding the perforated section, then backfilled with well material to within 1 foot of surface, then sealed with a 1 foot bentonite plug. (e) DOCT 005. 4 inch well bore, 10 feet deep. First 10 inches of top soil, followed by 9.2 feet of loosely consolidated sandy material. Well completed with 1 and 1/2 inch perforated PVC casing in bottom six feet, with top four feet of solid wall 1 and 1/2 inch PVC casing. The well head was completed with an 18 inch by 1 and 1/2 inch PVC riser and cap. Cavity around casing was filled with 1/2 inch crush stone surrounding the perforated section, then backfilled with well material to within 1 foot of surface, then sealed with a 1 foot bentonite plug. (f) DOCT 006. 4 inch well bore, 10 feet deep. First 5 inches of top soil, followed by 9.4 feet of loosely consolidated sandy material. Well completed with 1 and 1/2 inch perforated PVC casing in bottom six feet, with top four feet of solid wall 1 and 1/2 inch PVC casing. The well head was completed with an 18 inch by 1 and 1/2 inch PVC riser and cap. Cavity around casing was filled with 1/2 inch crush stone surrounding the perforated section, then backfilled with well material to within 1 foot of surface, then sealed with a 1 foot bentonite plug. 2. Testing and Analysis. After allowing the test wells to aspirate for 24 hours, the wells were sampled at 1700 hours on May 27, 1994 with the Landtech Gem 500 Landfill Gas Test Unit. The test unit was calibrated with a gas standard of 48% methane, 48% carbon dioxide, and 2% oxygen. The unit was allowed to draw gals from a point 24 inches below the well head with the following results for each well: 5/27/94 METHANE CARBON DIOXIDE OXYGEN DOCT0001: 4.9% 4.1% 17.0% DOCT0002: 3.4% 3.1% 17.3% DOCT0003: 12.9% 11.80 14.2% DCOT0004: 22.194 24.7% 8.8% DOCT0005: 0.9% 2.3% 17.3% DOCT0006: 0.0% 0.5% 1.8.8% Please refer to the enclosed well site diagram for well ID locations. Analysis of the data indicates that on May 27, 1994 DOCT0003 and DOCT0004 tested significantly above 100% LEL, 5% methane. DOCT0003 tested 258% LEL, and DOCT0004 tested 442% LEL. The data also confirms that a significant Landfill Gas subsurface pressure gradient has extended some 100 feet into the Trace property from the northern landfill perimeter. The loss of border, trees and deep rooted foliage opposite DOCT0001-0004 would indicate an effective gradient width of some 400 feet at this location. (See diagram) 4 At the conclusion of the May 27, 1994 test, all wells were capped in preparation for the next phase of testing which took place on June 3, 1994 and. again on June 9, 1994. Prior to sample testing, the Gem 500 Landfill Gas Unit was calibrated as discussed above. Test result from those two dates are as follows: METHANE CARBON DIOXIDE OXYGEN DOCT0001: 6/3/94 35.7% 43.2% 5.8% 6/9/94 23.5% 31.8% 10.1% DOCT0002: 6/3/94 44.8% 54.6% 0.6% 6/9/94 48.6% 49.1% 0.0% DOCT0003: 6/3/94 45.8% 51.9% 2.3% 6/9/94 45.6% 44.3% 3.0% DOCT0004: 6/3/94 33.6% 44.1% 5.2% 6/9/94 37.1% 41.5% 3.9% DOCT0005: 6/3/94 10.5% 23.7% 5.0% 6/9/94 12.1% 28.3% 1.9% DOCT0006: 6/3/94 0.00% 2.2% 17.0% 6/9/94 0.00% 0.0% 19.3% The conditions of these tests differed from the May 27, 1994 testing because the wells remained capped during the one week intervals between each testing event. This was done to allow methane to accumulate Within the well chamber. At the time of testing, the cap of each well was removed and the test sample was withdrawn from a point 24 inches below the well head. In all wells except DOCT006, the tests revealed that the intensity of the LFG pressure gradient is sufficient to support high methane concentrations, in confined spaces, at distances of up to 100 feet from the landfill boundary, within the observed gradient. (see diagram). Note that the western most boundary of the gradient extends north from the site of Landfill Monitor Well MP5. This well has been under observation since July of 1993, with methane concentrations continually in excess of 55%. The eastern most boundary of the gradient runs north from the landfill perimeter passing just to the left of DOCT0005 , and running midway between the round paddock and the barn. With only one exception, methane concentrations within the gradient have tested at 33% or greater, with the highest reaching 48.6%. Methane concentrations appearing in DOCT0005 are significantly lower than gradient well concentrations and at DOCT0006 there is no evidence of methane at all. On June 9, 1994 the buildings and other improvements on the Trace property were also tested for evidence of methane accumulation. Again the Gem 500 Landfill Gas test unit was employed for there tests. Every building and enclosed structure, including the Trace residence, pool area, gazebo, drainage culverts, small barn, large barn, small cottage adjacent to large barn, and small. equipment shed next to round paddock were closely tested for evidence of methane. The sampling was performed in all enclosed or confined spaces within these structures, either in direct contact with the ground or in contact through floor drains, duct work or other likely channels. No methane was discovered at any of the sample points. 3. Conclusions and Recommendations. (1) The loss of border trees and deep rooted foliage along a section of Trace property at the northern boundary of Stoney Mountain Road Landfill is visual evidence of offsite Landfill Gas migration into that property. (2) Data from this test has determined the existence of an intrusive Landfill gas pressure/concentration gradient, which has been measured at a distance of 100 feet from the landfill boundary. The northerly gradient movement is underlying property dedicated to grazing pastures and horse paddocks. (3) Methane concentrations as high as 48.60 or 972% Lower Explosive Limit have been encountered during testing within the gradient. (4) All buildings and improvements on the Trace property have been tested and are free and clear of methane intrusion. (5) Wells on the Trace property should be included in the weekly monitor program at Stony Mountain Road Landfill to track the movement of the gradient. The buildings and improvements on the Trace property should be checked quarterly unless there is a significant change in the gradient. (6) The data gathered from this project will be used in planning the final design of the Landfill Gas Remediation System to eliminate methane intrusion into the Trace property. Once a vacuum barrier has eliminated gas migration into the Trace property, its monitor wells may be removed. (7) County should clear the deadfall at the northern boundary from the property fence and repair that section of the fence. New border trees should be planted by County to restore Trace privacy once active migration control is in place. 7 > T, s� h r n� -n m011` f c Cl) m Drj ��� Z �, o :np La 0=o oo J U- n loom D L N O 3� 24-• 21 •� � ---�.- �" D a pn A Ti n 7 3 n D n 7 !0� JUl1- 2-34 THU Z3: fU Y.

PARTNER May 27, 1994 Ms. Nippy Page Henderson County Solid Waste Planning Facsimile Transmission Re: Nippy Page, Memorandum, May 6, 1994 Landfill Gas Monitoring, Trace Property, Plans and Specifications, Cost Estimate Dear Nippy, After discussing your memorandum with Jim Patterson, and after visiting the Trace property with you on May 25, 1994, I have developed the following plans to accomplish the captioned tasks: 1. Install 6 Landfill Gas (LFG) monitoring wells at discrete locations, on the Trace property, to measure the magnitude and possible hazards of gas migration from Stony Mountain Road Landfill. 2. Wells will be drilled to a depth of 10 feet using a 4 inch hand auger tool. Wells will be cased with 1 and 1/2 inch perforated PVC pipe to within four feet of the surface. The perforated section will be backfilled with 1/2 inch crushed stone. The upper section will be filled with well material with the final two feet sealed with bentonite clay. The well head will be fitted with an 18 inch riser section of 1 and 1/2 inch PVC and fitted with a removeable PVC cap. 3. Following a 24 hour period of normal aspiration the wells will be sampled using a Landtech Gem 500 portable Landfill Gas field testing unit. The unit will be calibrated with a gas standard consisting of 48% Methane, 48% Carbon Dioxide, and 2% Oxygen prior to testing. Each well will receive a discrete "ID" with its information stored in the Gem 500 unit. Following the test procedure the wells will be capped until the next test. The wells will be tested once each week thereafter in the routine test cycle of the Landfill Gas Monitoring wells at Stoney Mountain Road Landfill. 4. In addition to the six wells, the Trace residence will be tested for the presence of Landfill Gas, using the Gem 500 unit. Depending upon the results of all the test data, a recommendation will be made as to the necessity of continuing to monitor the Trace residence. POST OFFICE BOX 1078 • CAMDEN, SOUTH CAROLINA 29020 PHONE/FAX: (803) 432-7501 5. Following completion of all field testing, a report will be drafted summarizing the field work, the data collected, and the implications of the information, together with certain conclusions and recommendations for additional action, if required. 6. Estimated costs for the project will be: (a) Install and complete 6 Landfill Gas Monitor wells, in accordance with paragraph 2 above, including installation and materials, at $195.00 per well, (b) Initial sampling and testing of wells at $15.00 per test times 12 tests. (c) Test Trace residence for evidence of Landfill Gas, at $80.00 dollars, (d) Project Report, estimated at $400.00 dollars, and (e) Incorporating Trace wells in future weekly test cycle, add $360.00 per month to normal invoice. Total estimated project cost, $1850.00 An invoice will be included with the normal billing cycle for each of the following: (a) Following completion of the well installation, two week observation period, and testing Trace residence, and (b) Following submission of the project report. Paragraphs 1 through 5 have been incorporated into a letter to Jim Patterson, as requested, with copy enclosed. If you have any questions, comments or modifications to this plan, please advise.

NIPPY PAGE INTEGRATED SOLID WASTE PLANNER 697-48 7 7 As you are aware, Henderson County has been operating the Stoney Mountain Road Landfill under a notice of violation from the North Carolina Department of Health, Environment and Natural Resources (NCDEHNR) for methane gas migration. It was for this reason, that Henderson County proposed to enter into a contract for methane eras remediation with Cargan Energy Associates, a Georgia Partnership. A schedule for the remediation project was submitted by you for this project. The remediation project is grossly behind schedule. Site construction was to begin in April with start-up of operations in September. The County has been placed in a situation because of delays in the start-up of the project which could result in further notices of violation from NCDEHNR. It is my understanding from my conversations with you that the reason for the delays has been your inability to obtain financing for the remediation project. As it is now September, 1994, the contracts were sent to you for execution on February 4, 1994, the contracts have never been executed by Cargan Energy Associates, and as of today's date you have still not secured financing for the project, Henderson County can draw only one conclusion: that Cargan Energy Associates is unable to perform the terms '.of the contract. Henderson County must proceed with this project immediately. We can sustain no further delays. Therefore, please consider this letter your notice that we consider our contracts with you to be null and void. Henderson County must proceed with the project through alternative methods. We appreciate your efforts on our behalf, but we must move ahead. Thank you for working with the County.

We have not observed any methane intrusion into buildings or enclosed spaces on the property, though methane continues to register above LEL in the monitor wells in open areas. We have commenced Landfill Gas project mobilization at Stoney Mountain Road Landfill, and we again request clarification on DEHNR regulations concerning the installation of Landfill Gas wells. Prior to the installation of test wells in May of 1993, we were informed by your office that the State did not require a permit for such well installation. Please reconfirm, or provide guidance if there are new LFG well permit requirements with the State of North Carolina.

Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources 59 Woodfin Place Asheville, NC 28801 Dear Mr. Patterson: I would like to bring you up to date on the Henderson County landfill gas remediation project and inform you why this project has been delayed. Our last correspondence to you by Mr. Samual Logan of Cargan Resources, Inc. dated June 14 was requesting a certification from you that no permit was required for landfill gas wells. At that time we were planning to begin construction of wells in July. This schedule was contingent upon Cargan Resources obtaining financing. After construction of the preliminary wells on site, Cargan lost a business partner and design engineer causing his company to become financially insecure and finances were not obtained. Mr. Logan sought alternate financing and was denied for several reasons: his company is located in South Carolina; banks would not finance a project located in North Carolina; and the bank wanted Mr. Logan to tie up all his assets in other projects which he could not do. Mr. Logan continued to negotiate with lending institutes unsuccessfully. The County notified him in November that we had to consider his contract with the County null and void and had to consider alternative methods. William G. Lapsley & Associates was hired to oversee the project and our Board approved and set aside $259,000 to finance the perimeter wells, animal shelter and Trace property on a weekly basis and operate the flare station. Subject to the receipt of the appropriate North Carolina permits and weather related site conditions, the schedule should proceed as follows: 1. November 1994 - Schranze & Associates to finalize design, produce plan and specifications, submit permits for approval. 2. December 1994 - Award bid and install gas wells. 3. February 1995 - Complete foundation for flare station 4. March 1995 - Flare station completed. James E. Patterson October 31, 1994 Page 2 5. April 1995 - Start up operation, train landfill staff. 6.

Based on circumstances outlined in your correspondence, the dates specified are agreed to. Please keep in mind that directives outlined in 15A North Carolina Administrative Code 13B .1626(c)(i) concerning taking all steps necessary to ensure protection of public health and the environment are always applicable. Also, Henderson County will be required to continue monitoring and record keeping for methane gas levels on the Trace property and inside the Trace residence. Since the methane gas migration has been an ongoing problem for over two years, the Solid Waste Section is accepting the schedule submitted as a "firm schedule" and no further extensions will. be granted. A new compliance date of May 1, 1995 is therefore established for installation and operation of the methane gas migration control system.

The results indicate an increase in turbidity from 80 NTU at the dam overflow to 450 NTU just prior to the confluence of the next stream. This represents a violation of the turbidity standard which states that ". . the turbidity of the receiving water will not exceed 50 Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU) in streams not designated as trout waters; . . . if turbidity exceeds these levels due to natural background conditions, the existing turbidity level cannot be increased." This is referenced from Administrative Code Section T15A: 02B .0211 (b)(3)(K). This standard further states that compliance can be met when land management activities are in full compliance with all specifications governing the installation, operation, and maintenance of Best Management Practices. An inspection report on March 9, 1994, by the Land Quality Section of the NC Department of Environment Health, and Natural Resources indicated several violations of Sedimentation Pollution Control Act rules. On February 23, 1994, following a period of rain, the stream near the school bus garage, the east sedimentation basin discharge, and the stream draining the area east of the landfill were all turbid in appearance. Metals samples were taken at this time. The east sedimentation basin was found to be overflowing the dam, resulting in a washout on the back side of the dam. Mr. Eldon Owen later stated that a stump had plugged the overflow standpipe on the sedimentation basin.

As the sample results indicate, the dam overflow was 80 NTU and a short distance downstream, the turbidity had increased to 450 NTU. This was attributed to sediment previously deposited in the stream being re -suspended. Additional metals samples were taken on February 28, 1994. Results of these samples will be forwarded when available. The Asheville Regional Office of the Division of Environmental Management is considering a recommendation for enforcement action for submittal to the Director of the Division of Environmental Management. The recommendation concerns the violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-214.1 and for violation of a water quality standard. If you have justification that this violation was caused by events or circumstances beyond the County's control which you wish us to consider, you should reply in writing to the Asheville Regional office within ten (10) days after receipt of this Notice.

Davis, Regional Supervisor N.C. Division of Environmental Management 59 Woodfin Place Asheville, N.C. 28801 Ref: Notice of Violation Henderson County Landfill Dear Mr. Davis: NIPPY PAGE INTEGRATED SOLID WASTE PLANNER 697-4877 Reference is made to your March 18, 1994 letter notice of violation concerning the operation of the Henderson County Stoney Mountain Road Landfill. This response is offered to update your office on current activities to improve the control of sediment and erosion from the site. Our office has been working with the N.C. Division of Earth Resources on improvements to our sediment and erosion control measures at the site. In addition to repairing damage caused by two recent major storm events we are planning to install an additional sedimentation basin to aid in trapping sediment. Over the past few weeks there have been major storm events resulting in damage to the erosion control measures on the site. A summary of these events and actions taken by our staff is as follows: During February all slopes and sedimentation basins were in excellent condition. A few days before the March 9th inspection by the Division of Earth Resources, a major storm practically destroyed many of our slopes and filled all ponds with sediment. One sediment trap dike was washed out after the stand pipe was clogged with a stump. Arrangements were made to rent a track hoe on the llth of March which was received March 18th to clean sediment basins and assist with repairs. We repaired our slopes on the 14th and 15th of March. On the 17th of March we sowed 150 lbs. of Kentucky 31, 100 lbs. of Rye Grass, and 30 lbs. of weeping love grass on the damaged slopes. This slope area encompasses approximately 10 to 15 acres. The standpipe was unclogged and the dike repaired that same week.. All sediment ponds were Mr. Roy Davis March 30, 1994 Page Two cleaned the week of March 21-25. Again on the weekend of March 26th and 27th another major storm hit the area and totally destroyed all of the previous repair work. The storm completely filled all sediment ponds again. This week we are starting the repairs to the slopes, cleaning of the sediment basins, and restoration of the damaged areas. The storm event of this past weekend resulted in significant flooding in the area. The storm event dumped 4.5 inches of rain in less that 36 hours in this area. Many streams in the area flooded. The repairs that we had made earlier had not established a ground cover and were not capable of handling the recent storm. We are proceeding with repairs this week. We are beginning on the installation of an additional sediment trap as requested by Mr. Owenby with the Division of Earth Resources. We hope to have all repair work completed within the next two weeks and have the new sediment trap constructed by the end of May. When these projects are completed, I will contact the various North Carolina offices dealing with these so that they can come to inspect and advise me on any other necessary procedures. The upper slopes above the borrow area are now being seeded and trees planted as part of our overall site restoration. We hope that this information is of benefit to you and your staff. Should there be any questions, please contact our office at 704-697-4505.

The results of metals analysis indicate that the water quality standards for lead, copper, zinc, and iron were violated. The results of turbidity samples were forwarded March 18 as a notice of violation. The full results of the analyses are enclosed. The lead violation occurred on February 23, 1994, below the confluence of the tributary flowing through the east sedimentation basin and the tributary east of this basin. The sedimentation basin was overflowing its dam at the time due to the overflow pipe being plugged. The water quality standards for copper, zinc, and iron were also exceeded on this date at this location and in the tributary by the school bus shop entrance. A sample collected on February 28, 1994 from the east sedimentation basin overflow indicated that only zinc and iron standards were being exceeded at that time. The Asheville Regional Office of the Division of Environmental Management is considering a recommendation for enforcement action for submittal to the Director of the Division of Environmental Management. The recommendation concerns the violation of North Carolina General Statute 143-214.1 and for violation of a water quality standard.

Based on circumstances outlined in your correspondence, the dates specified are agreed to. Please keep in mind that directives outlined in 15A North Carolina Administrative Code 13B .1626(c)(i) concerning taking all steps necessary to ensure protection of public health and the environment are always applicable. Also, Henderson County will be required to continue monitoring and record keeping for methane gas levels on the Trace property and inside the Trace residence. Since the methane gas migration has been an ongoing problem for over two years, the Solid Waste Section is accepting the schedule submitted as a "firm schedule" and no further extensions will be granted. A new compliance date of May 1, 1995 is therefore established for installation and operation of the methane gas migration control system. Please let me know if you have questions. incerely(, ,,mot James F.

Patterson, Waste Management Specialist N. C. Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources 59 Woodfln Place Asheville, NO 28801 Dear Mr. Patterson: I would like to bring you up to date on the Henderson County landfill gas remediation project and inform you why this project has been delayed. Our last correspondence to you by Mr. Samual Logan of Cargan Resources, Inc. dated June 14 was requesting a certification from you that no permit was required for landfill gas wells, At that time we were planning to begin construction of wells In July. This schedule was contingent upon Cargan Resources obtaining financing. After construction of the preliminary wells on site, Cargan lost a business partner and design engineer causing his company to become financially insecure and finances were not obtained. Mr. Logan sought alternate financing and was denied for several reasons., his company is located in South Carolina; banks would not finance a project located in North Carolina; and the bank wanted Mr. Logan to tie up all his assets In other projects which he could not do. Mr. Logan continued to negotiate with lending Institutes unsuccessfully. The County notified him in November that we had to consider his contract with the County null and void and had to consider alternative methods, William G, Lapsley & Associates was hired to oversee the project and our Board approved and set aside $259,000 to finance the Perimeter wells, animal shelter and Trace property on a weekly basis and operate the flare station. Subject to the receipt of the appropriate North Carolina permits and weather related site conditions, the schedule should proceed as follows: 1. November 1994 - Sohranze & Associates to finalize design, produce plan and specifications, submit permits for approval. 2. December 1994 - Award bid and install gas wells. 3. February 1995 - Complete foundation for flare station 4. March 1996 - Flare station completed. FROM EHNR. HRU • I James E. Patterson October 31, 1994 Page 2 5.

A schedule for the remediation project was submitted by you for this project. The remediation project is schedu,l,e. Site construction was to begin in April withosslstart-upiof operations in September. The County has been placed in a situation because of delays in the in further notices of vistart-up of the project which could result olation from NCDEHNR. Yt is my understanding. from my conversations with you that the reason for the delays has been your inability to obtain financing for the remediation project. As it is now September, 1994, the contracts were seat to you for execution on February 4, 1994, the contracts have never been executed by Cargan Energy Associates, and as of today's date you have Still not ,secured financing for the Project, Henderson County can draw only one conclusion; that . Cargan Energy AssoCitttes is unable to perform the terms .of the contract. Hettdersoa County must proceed with this project .immediatsly. We can sustain ao further delays.

Patterson, Waste Management Specialist N. C. Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources 59 Woodfin Place Asheville, NO 28801 Dear Mr. Patterson: 1 would like to bring you up to date on the Henderson County landfill gas remedlatlon project and Inform you why this project has been delayed. Our last correspondence to you by Mr. Samual Logan of Cargan Resources, Inc. dated June 14 was requesting a certification from you that no permit was required for landfill gas wells, At that time we were planning to begin construction of wells In July. This schedule was contingent upon Cargan Resources obtaining financing. After construction of the preliminary wells on site, Cargan lost a business partner and design engineer causing his company to became financially insecure and finances were not obtained. Mr. Logan sought alternate financing and was denied for several reasons: his company Is located In South Carolina; banks would not finance a project located In North Carolina; and the bank wanted Mr. Logan to tie up all his assets In other projects which he could not do. Mr. Logan continued to negotiate with lending Institutes unsuccessfully. The County notified him In November that we had to consider his contract with the County null and voici and had to consider alternative methods. William G. Lapsley & Associates was hired to oversee the project and our guard approved and set aside $259,000 to finance the perimeter wells, animal shelter and Trace property on a weekly basis and operate the flare station. Subject to the receipt of the appropriate North Carolina permits and weather related site conditions, the schedule should proceed as follows; 1. November 1994 - Sohranze & Associates to finalize design, produce plan and specifications, submit permits for approval, 2. December 1994 Award bid and Install gas wells. 3. February 1995 - Complete foundation for flare station 4. March 1996 - Flare station completed.
