Dear Mr. Layton:
Collins & Aikman has been operating the Old Fort carpet scrap landfill
successfully for over four years. Mr. W. C. Black, our landfill
contractor, has done an excellent job following the operation plan,
placing the carpet bales and utilizing the available space. In order
for C&A to continue maximizing the space available, we must modify our
existing plan and pipe a small branch which initiates on our property.
As indicated on the attached print, a branch initiates on the north-
east portion of our property and flows from east to west. Field
studies indicate that the branch is spring fed at the rate of approxi-
mately 8 gal/min. The study also indicates that the flow is main-
tainetl at about 8 gal/min for the first 400 feet of the branch and
then begins to pick up due to another spring or side seepage. At the
point where the branch leaves our property, the flow is approximately
30 gal/min.
In order for us to utilize the space indicated on the attached print,
C&A proposes the installation of a pipe and headwall downstream of the
spring which heads up the branch. In essence, we would install 400
feet of pipe and landfill over the existing branch. Details would
include (1) the pipe would be sized to handle the spring and a 100
year rainfall run-off for the area in question, (2) the pipe would be
water tight to avoid infiltration, (3) we would place gravel around
the pipe as a safety factor should the pipe fail and (4)we would place
4 feet of fill material over the pipe as a safety factor for possible
landfill leachate.

We believe that our proposal is the best long term approach for
handling our waste carpet for both C&A and the State. It will un-
doubtedly add several years to the life of our present landfill which
may alleviate the need for C&A to purchase and permit another site in
McDowell County. C&A is committed to reducing the quantity of waste
carpet landfilled and extending the life of the existing site. In
1984-1985 we spent over $600,000 to reclaim a portion of our waste
carpet and are presently considering another reclaim line for addition
waste savings.
C&A would like feedback on this proposal as soon as possible. Should
you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact
me at [phone] ext. 2253.
Sincerely,
COLLINS & AIKMAN CORPORATION

SUBJECT: Collins & Aikman Old Fort Landfill
Dear Mr. Layton:
On January 29, 1986 Collins & Aikman submitted a proposal to best
utilize the remaining area at the Old Fort landfill. On April
23, 1986 you verbally requested additional information on con-
struction details.
Attached are two drawings which illustrate our construction plans
in detail. Drawing one was originally prepared in 1981, revised
in 1983 and revised again to illustrate this proposal. This
drawing shows existing and proposed site topography, pertinent
site features, designated buffer zones, the diversion of surface
water with steel pipe, brush barriers for erosion control and
site development. Drawing two illustrates pipe construction
details and site cross sections. The cross sections indicate the
original elevations, the proposed excavation depths and the
proposed final elevation of 500 feet.
Landfill operational specifications and general conditions as
previously submitted and approved will not change. W. C. Black,
our landfill contractor, will also install the pipe and headwall.
Based on the excellent operational record of W. C. Black and the
information prepared, Collins & Aikman has a high degree of
confidence that this proposal is the best to utilize the space
available. Since the area we are presently working will soon be
full, any immediate attention you can give this matter will be
greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
COLLINS & AIKMAN CORPORATION
