a hard copy of the LCID notification form that needed to be completed by the new owner, Mr. Daniel Britt and

OBSERVED VIOLATIONS:
A. 15A NCAC 13B .0566 (2), "Solid waste in the landfill shall be compacted. Slopes shall not exceed a ratio of
three horizontal to one vertical at any time." As previously identified in the September 2020 and June 2021
inspection reports, the side slopes of the working face were observed to be mainly vertical and uncovered during
the inspection. The side slopes need to be properly graded and waste covered with soil. The side slope of the
excavation along the southwestern side of the LCID was identified to be nearly vertical. The excavation side
slopes also need to be graded to a three horizontal to one vertical ratio. The waste must be properly compacted,
covered with a minimum of 12-inches of soil and sloped, not to exceed a three horizontal to one vertical
ratio.
The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance
with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22, an
administrative penalty of up to $15,000 per day may be assessed for each violation of the Solid Waste Laws, Regulations, Conditions of a Permit,
or Order under Article 9 of Chapter 130A of the N.C. General Statutes. Further, the facility and/or all responsible parties may also be subject to
enforcement actions including penalties, injunction from operation of a solid waste management facility or a solid waste collection service and
any such further relief as may be necessary to achieve compliance with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Act and Rules.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. The total disposal area for this facility will be under 2 acres in size.
2. 15A NCAC 13B .0201 (g), "Disposal area boundaries for landfills permitted in accordance with Section .0500
or .1600 of this Subchapter shall be delineated with stationary markers affixed to the ground. The markers
shall be of height and spacing so that they are distinguishable from the surrounding landscape, and so that the
adjacent markers are visible when standing at a marker." One edge of waste marker was observed near the
northeastern corner of the waste disposal area. A presumed second marker, flagging in a tree even with the previously
identified EOW marker, was identified near the northwestern corner Permanent edge of waste markers need to be
installed and visible around the entire limits of the LCID.
3. The waste stream was relatively clean. Several pieces of dimensional lumber were observed near the eastern working
face. Ensure that the dimensional lumber is not treated and that all nonconforming wastes are removed and properly
disposed of at a facility permitted to receive that waste type.
4. Ensure that the waste is covered with a minimum of six inches of soil monthly or when the working face reaches 1
acre in size.
5. The access roads are constructed of all-weather material and properly maintained.
6. Recovered material must not be stored within the LF footprint. The concrete waste pile appeared to be clean
concrete, block. and brick. As stated in § 130A 309.05 (c)(1), "Seventy-five percent (75%), by weight or volume,
of the recovered material stored at a facility at the beginning of the calendar year commencing January 1,
shall be removed from the facility through sale, use or reuse by December 31 of the same year." The concrete
waste MUST be reduced by 75% by December 31, 2021. The previously identified plastic sheeting and painted
concrete had been removed. Please provide the Section with weigh tickets for the proper disposal of the plastic
sheeting and painted concrete.
7. The area of previously identified piles of sawdust like waste, possibly containing chicken litter, had grown in size.
The facility is not permitted to receive this type of waste. The sawdust like waste needs to be disposed of at a
facility which is permitted to receive this waste type. Please provide the Section with the origin of the waste and
how the waste will be disposed of.
8. Corrective measures are necessary at this facility and must be completed within 30 days' receipt of this report.
The Solid Waste Section will conduct a follow-up inspection in 30 days to ensure issues noted in this inspection
report have been addressed.
9. Failure to bring the site into compliance will result in enforcement actions.
10. Photographs were taken during the inspection.
