RE: Status of Collins & Aikman Industrial Landfill, Haywood County, Permit Number 56-03
Dear Mr. Davis:
The purpose of this letter is to inform the owner/operator of the referenced facility of their
responsibilities under the recently adopted industrial waste rules.
Rule .0503(d)(iii) of the solid waste management rules codified at 15A NCAC 13B requires that
operators of new industrial waste landfills (ILFs), lateral expansions of existing ILFs, and ILFs
operating on or after January 1,1998, shall submit to the Division a design that satisfies one of
the following criteria:
(A) a design that will ensure that the ground water standards established under 15A
NCAC 2L will not be exceeded in the uppermost aquifer at the compliance boundary
established by the Division in accordance with 15A NCAC 2L. The design shall be
based upon modelling methods acceptable to the Division, which shall include at a
minimum the following factors:
(1) the hydrogeologic characteristics of the facility and surrounding lands;
(II) the climatic factors of the area; and
(III) the volume and physical and chemical characteristics of the leachate, or
(B) a design with a leachate collection system, a closure cap system, and a composite
liner system consisting of two components: the upper component shall consist of a
minimum 30-mil flexible membrane (FML), and the lower components shall consist of at
least a two -foot layer of compacted soil with a hydraulic conductivity of no more than
lx10-' cm/sec. FML, components consisting of high density polyethylene (HDPE) shall
be at least 60-mil thick.
An existing landfill is defined as a landfill that is receiving waste on October 1, 1995, the
effective date of this rule and is not a new landfill. A lateral expansion of an existing landfill is

Carpet Scrap Landfill
SITE DESCRIPTION
June 21, 1996
S&ME Job No. 1356-96-355
The Collins & Aikman Carpet.Scrap Landfill is operating under Permit No. 56-03. The
landfill is located on approximately 86 acres of land owned by Collins & Aikman. The site
is located on State Road 1240 in Old Fort, North Carolina. Among the 86 acres of land,
approximately 18 acres located between the north boundary of the landfill and State Road
1240 was purchased in late 1989. The surveyed property description and updated
topography is presented on the Existing Site Conditions Plan (Sheet 1) in the Appendix.
The landfill site is located approximately five miles from Collins & Aikman's plant. Carpet
scrap from their manufacturing process is baled and hauled to the landfill by a contracted
hauler. The bales are stacked a few bales high prior to being covered with six inches of
soil on a weekly basis.
The landfill was operated in three phases as shown on the Existing Site Conditions Plan
(Sheet 1). The original landfilling operations (Phase 1) were along the central western
portion of the site as shown on Sheet 1. Phase 1 was operated during a period from
1981 to late 1982. Phase 2 was operated from late 1982 to 1985 south of the drainage
feature along the central eastern portion of the site. Since 1985, the existing operations
(Phase 3) have been over the drainage feature north of Phase 2.
COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY AND WATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS
The compliance boundary for the landfill will be within 50 feet to 150 feet from the
property line downgradient of the landfill. Based on the Existing Site Conditions Plan
(Sheet 1) in the Appendix and the anticipated groundwater flow directions within and in

Collins & Aikman June 21, 1996
Carpet Scrap Landfill S&ME Job No. 1356-96-355
the vicinity of the landfill, S&ME proposes the addition of one groundwater monitoring well
for compliance monitoring. The location of the well was selected based on the layout of
the landfill, topographic and site constraints, and anticipated groundwater flow directions.
The existing upgradient monitoring well (MW-1) is located approximately 500 feet east of
Phase 3 as indicated in the site plan. This well is constructed within a 6-inch diameter
borehole with a screen interval from 175 to 185 feet below land surface (BLS) and a sand
pack interval from 66 to 185 feet BLS. The depth to groundwater has ranged from 48.5
to 54.5 feet BLS, based on monitoring data from January 1989 to April 1995.
The existing downgradient monitoring well (MW-2) is located approximately 220 feet west
of Phase I, on the opposite side of a sediment basin. The basin rarely contains water,
and as such, should not significantly impact the ability of the monitoring well to be used
to monitor groundwater migrating from beneath the landfill. This well is constructed with
screen interval from 13.5 to 23.5 feet BLS and a sand pack interval from 9 to 23.5 feet
BLS. The depth to groundwater has ranged from 9.5 to 11.1 feet BLS, based on
monitoring data from January 1989 to April 1995. Well construction records for MW-1 and
MW-2 are included in the Appendix for reference.
S&ME proposes the addition of one groundwater monitoring well. Proposed monitoring
well MW-3 would be located approximately 50 feet northeast of Phase 1 along an access
road, as shown on the Water Quality Monitoring Plan (Sheet 2) in the Appendix. Due to
site topographic constraints, locating this well further downgradient is not feasible.
The well will be constructed of 2-inch diameter PVC with 10 to 15 feet of screen with the
top of the screen placed at approximately the seasonal low groundwater surface. The
estimated completion depth of the well is approximately 30 feet, although the final depth
2

Collins & Aikman June 21, 1996
Carpet Scrap Landfill S&ME Job No. 1356-96-355
will be dependant on the depth to groundwater observed during drilling. The screen
length will be based on the hydrogeologic conditions encountered during the drilling of
the soil boring. The well shall be constructed in accordance the North Carolina Well
Construction Standards (15 NCAC 2C) by a North Carolina licensed driller and approved
by a North Carolina licensed geologist.
In addition to groundwater monitoring, S&ME proposes two additional surface water
monitoring locations as shown on the Water Quality Monitoring Plan. The existing surface
water monitoring locations are located along Brevard Creek, upstream (SW-1) and
downstream (SW-2) of the confluence of the tributary from the landfill property. One
proposed additional surface water monitoring location (SW-3) would be located within the
tributary at the downstream side of the access road west of Phase 1. The other
proposed additional surface water monitoring location (SW-4) would be located at the
discharge point of the underdrain system beneath landfill Phase 3.
MODELING PLAN
S&ME proposes to utilize a fate and transport model to predict compliance with the
groundwater standards associated with leachate generated from the Collins & Aikman -
Carpet Scrap Landfill. The use of the model will be limited to the uppermost aquifer at
the site, and S&ME assumes that this aquifer is composed of unconsolidated materials,
(i.e., saprolite, alluvium, residuum, etc.). The following steps will be used to predict
concentrations of constituents that may leach from the carpet scrap at the downgradient
landfill boundary and at the Compliance Boundary. The equations to be used in the
model are attached for reference.

Collins & Aikman June 21, 1996
Carpet Scrap Landfill S&ME Job No. 1356-96-355
1) Constituent Concentrations in Leachate: The model will utilize the results of the
TCLP analyses of carpet scrap samples performed by Collins & Aikman. The
constituents with concentrations above the laboratory quantitation limits will be
evaluated in the model. If there are no constituents detected, only groundwater
flow directions and rates will be presented in the modeling report.
2) Leachate to Groundwater Dilution Factor (LDF): As leachate enters the
groundwater from the source (carpet scrap), constituents are diluted in the
groundwater mixing zone and the LDF accounts for this dilution. The predicted
steady-state concentrations of the constituents in the groundwater within the
mixing zone directly beneath the downgradient limit of the waste will be estimated
by dividing the leachate concentrations by the LDF.
Data Requirements:
Hydraulic conductivity: Based on in -situ permeability tests to be performed by
S&ME in MW-2 and the new well.
Hydraulic gradient: Based on groundwater levels measured by S&ME in
shallow wells (MW-2 and MW-3) and the adjacent
perennial streams.
Groundwater Mixing Zone: Estimated from soil boring data from new wells,
based on the upper permeable zone of the
aquifer.
Infiltration Rate: Range of 0.5 to 5 % of the annual precipitation,
although the actual may be less in areas of low
permeable cap overlying the landfill.
3) Concentration of constituent at the downgradient landfill boundary: The predicted
concentrations of the constituents in groundwater at the downgradient limits of the
4
a

Collins & Aikman
Carpet Scrap Landfill

S&ME Job No. 1356-96-355
carpet scrap landfill within the mixing zone will be estimated by dividing the
constituent concentrations in milligrams per liter (mg/L) for each constituent
detected following the TCLP extraction method (Item 1) by the LDF (Item 2).
4) Concentration of constituent at the Compliance Boundary: The predicted
concentrations of the constituents in groundwater at the compliance boundary will
be estimated using a solute transport model (Domenico equation), incorporating
first -order decay and natural attenuation. The model accounts for the attenuation
of constituents in the groundwater due to 1) mixing with groundwater downgradient
of the landfill (dispersion), 2) adsorption onto naturally occurring organics in the
soil (retardation), and 3) hydrolysis and biodegradation (first -order decay). Each
constituent detected in Item 1 will be evaluated using the Domenico equation.
Data Requirements:
Compliance Boundary: To calculate groundwater travel distance and predict
constituent concentrations at the boundary.
Porosity: Total porosity of aquifer, based on S&ME laboratory
analyses of two undisturbed soil samples collected
during the soil borings for MW-3.
Grain Size: Grain size of soil samples based on S&ME laboratory
analyses of undisturbed soil samples from MW-3.
Effective porosity: Estimated from total porosity and grain size analyses.
Soil Bulk Density: Based on S&ME laboratory analyses of undisturbed
soil samples from MW-3.
Fraction Organic Carbon: Based on S&ME-subcontracted laboratory analyses of
undisturbed soil samples from MW-3.
First Order Decay Rate: Obtained from published data.
Organic -carbon partition coefficient: Obtained from published data.

5) Evaluation of constituent concentrations: S&ME will compare the predicted
concentrations of the constituents with the 15A NCAC 2L .0200 groundwater
standards. For constituents without standards, the predicted constituent
concentrations will be compared to the laboratory method detection limits.
In the event that constituents with predicted concentrations exceed the standards
or laboratory detection limits at the compliance boundary, additional fate and
transport modeling may be necessary. For organic constituents, a modified
Domenico equation may be used that incorporates electron -limited biodegradation
rates. The applicability and use of this model will be evaluated at that time.

Re: Preliminary Evaluation, Collins & Aikman Industrial Landfill, McDowell County,
Permit Number 56-03
Dear Mr. Moore:
The North Carolina Division of Waste Management, Solid Waste Section (Section) has
completed its preliminary evaluation of the Compliance Boundary and Modeling Plan for the
above referenced facility submitted by S&ME on behalf of the owner/operator, Collins &
Aikman. As of this time, the Section will require the following additional information in order to
make a final determination with respect to the facility's operations past January 1, 1998.
Future Facility Development
The submittal does not indicate what the facility's future development plan will be. Based upon
our telephone conversation of August 26, 1996, you indicated that operations in Phase 3 would
continue for approximately 5 years at which time you would look into developing the southern
portion of the permitted area for waste disposal. A Construction Plan detailing the continued
development of Phase 3 along with a revised groundwater sampling and analysis plan (see
below) will need to be submitted in order to continue operating in Phase 3 for 5 years after
January 1, 1998. The Section will also need a comprehensive facility drawing including the
permitted facility boundary, the location of all solid waste management facilities and related
infastructure, the limits of all waste disposal areas (both existing and proposed) including borrow
and stockpile areas, the location of all sedimentation and erosion control features and the
proposed final unit closure contours.
Please note that waste disposal activities outside of Phase 3 will constitute a "lateral expansion"
for which the issuance of a permit amendment will be necessary. Collins & Aikman will need to
submit a permit amendment application to the Section satisfying all of the provisions of NCAC
13B .0503 through .0505 prior to the development of any additional portions of the subject site.
