Box 18149 Asheville, North Carolina 28814 Dear Mr, Conner: A letter from your office dated 29 April, 1986 to Mr. Keith Masters regarding proposed operations and expansion of the McDowell County Land- fill discusses several measures concerning future operation of the site. Upon closer review of the plans, we recommend the installation of a new down --gradient monitoring well and the relocation of the "background" monitoring well as shown on the enclosed map. The implementation of these changes will significantly enhance the groundwater monitoring of this site. If you have further questions or concerns, please contact this office at (919) 733-2178.
