Looking (E) over the top of the "new" sediment basin at eroded slope leading to the barrow area. 4. Looking (W) along the southem limits of the landfill at exposed waste. AREAS OF CONCERN AND COMMENTS: 1. A search of the NC Secretary of State's corporation's web page confirms that International Automotive Components (IAC) is now registered to do business in NC. 2. The permit that expired on 9/19/07 was issued to the Collins and Aikman Products Company. This permit is not transferable. (See Item (6) of Part I.• Industrial Landfill Facility General Conditions of the December 19, 2002 Permit.) Please complete the permitting process in accordance with 15A NCAC 13B .0200. 3. The limits of waste have been staked with 3 to 4-foot steel rods that are flagged with surveyor's tape. Jack Davis (IAC Plant Engineer —retired) placed the stakes approximately 100 to 150-feet apart. (See photo #5 below.) The property lines of the landfill must also be staked out with permanent markers. (See the attached May 29, 2009 Memorandum "Permanent Edge -of -Waste Markers at Construction and Demolition Debris Landfills, Industrial Solid Waste Landfills and Municipal Solid Waste Landfills".) 5. Waste limits marker: 4-foot steel florescent surveyor's tape. topped with 6. Looking (W) into the "new" sediment basin. 1. A "new" sediment basin was put in place at the head of the access road to in an effort to control on -site erosion. (See photo #6 above.) 2. Heavy rains this past year have badly eroded the access road. New sediment traps at the top of the access road were installed. (See photos #7 and #8 below.) The road needs to be repaired. FACILITY COMPLIANCE AUDIT REPORT Division of Waste Management Solid Waste Section Page 5 of 5 3. Due recent snow and ice storms, the access road was blocked in multiple places by downed trees. (See photo #9 below.) The access road needs to be cleared so that it is passable to vehicular traffic. 7, Looking (W), near the top, at the eroded access road. 9. Looking (W) at one of many trees blocking the accessroad. 8. Looking (E), from the top of the access road at the new sediment traps. (The "new" sediment basin is in the background, behind the orange construction fence.) 10. Sign at entrance to the landfill. 4. Due to the ice and snow conditions on 1115110, the groundwater monitoring wells were not located. On January 27, 2010, Bill Wagner returned to the site to locate the two groundwater monitoring wells. The up - gradient well MW-1 could not be located. The down -gradient well MW was located on the north side of the access road, that skirts the southern side of the site. (See Photo #1 lbelow.) The well is approximately 75- yards south of where the access road crosses over an un-named stream that flows west from the landfill and empties into Brevard Creek. MW-2 was locked but it did not have the required "well contractor identification plate" as required by 15A NCAC 2C .0107(i)(2). 5. The last groundwater and surface water sampling event that was submitted to the Division occurred on April 28, 2008. Four groundwater wells (MW 1, MW-2, MW-3 and MW-4) and two surface water locations (SW-1 and SW-2) were sampled. Please locate and mark all of the groundwater monitoring wells with FACILITY COMPLIANCE AUDIT REPORT Division of Waste Management Solid Waste Section Page 6 of 6 permanent identification plates, and flag or otherwise mark the approximate locations were the surface water samples were collected. 11.
