RE: Notice of Waste Boundary Exceedance
Avery County C&D Landfill
Solid Waste Permit No. 06-03
Dear Ms. Aja:
We have prepared this letter to provide notice that our waste areas have exceeded our permitted
boundaries. Our consultant, Richardson Smith Gardner & Associates, Inc. (RSG) has identified
through field topographic survey and test pit survey that the existing Phase II area of the landfill
has exceeded the approved waste limits as shown in Figure 1. Avery County intends to resolve
this issue through one or a combination of the following options:
• Additional Property Purchase;
o Adjacent Owner Waivers;
6 Waste Relocation; and/or
• Engineering Controls (ie. improved cover systems, etc.);
The airspace study prepared by RSG further revealed that our permitted facility has no remaining
capacity. However, we are currently preparing an updated Site Study Report for expansion of the
existing C&D landfill and plan to submit the report to the department for review.
We are currently reviewing our options regarding the above discovery and would like to meet
with the Division at its earliest convenience to receive your input and discuss a final solution.

RE: Request for Permit Modification
Avery County C & D Landfill Expansion
NC Solid Waste Permit No. 06-03
Dear Mr. Gaither:
On behalf of Avery County, Richardson Smith Gardner & Associates (RSG) would like to
submit an application to expand their existing construction and demolition debris (C&D) landfill
disposal area at the existing Avery County Landfill facility in Ingalls, North Carolina.
Project Background
The existing Avery County C&D landfill property was originally permitted to contain both a
C&D landfill and an LCID landfill. Currently, two (2) phases of the C&D landfill have been
constructed. An MSW transfer station is also located on the site (NC Solid Waste Permit No.
06-02T). In the original permit, the C&D landfill was to be constructed over approximately
11.2 acres. The permit also included approximately 29 acres of LCID landfill. To our
knowledge, the LCID landfill was never constructed.
Proposed Modifications
Avery County would like to expand their C&D landfill. The maximum limits of the proposed
expansion are shown on Drawing S3 in the Preliminary Facility Plan included in Appendix H of
the Revised Site Study. The expansion will add approximately 1.2 million cubic yards of gross
volume to the landfill facility.
Local Government Approval
The Avery County Board of Commissioners have held a preliminary vote to expand the landfill
which passed unanimously on September 4, 2007 (a copy of these meeting minutes are included
in Appendix G). However, this was a preliminary step by the County and did not meet the local
government approval process. This submittal includes a draft Local Government Resolution and
Construction/Demolition Landfill and Land Clearing and Inert Debris Permit Application
prepared by Municipal Engineering Services Company dated October 1995.
