Subject: Disposal of Approximately 40 Yd3/Three Weeks of Cured
Thermoset Molding Waste at the Madison County Landfill,
(Permit #58-02).
Dear Mr. Kunde:
The Solid Waste Management Division has received a request for
characterization of the subject waste. Based upon the submitted
information, the waste appears to be non -hazardous. The Solid
Waste Management Division has no objection to the sanitary landfill
disposal of this waste, if in accordance with the conditions listed
below:
1. The owner/operator of the landfill approves the disposal.
2. The waste contains no free liquids and can be confined,
compacted, and covered in accordance with the Solid Waste
Management Rules (15A NCAC 13B).
3. Renewal of this approval will require resubmittal of a
Waste Determination Form and current supportive
analytical data. Renewal is required prior to subsequent
disposal if the process generating the waste changes or
if the waste composition changes significantly.
Failure to meet these conditions may result in revocation of
this approval, and subsequently, an administrative penalty. The
approval is subject to change if new rules and/or regulations were
to prohibit this practice. If the process which generates the
waste changes or if the composition of the waste changes
significantly, this approval is void and re-evaluation of the waste
will be required prior to subsequent disposal. If you have further

The Solid Waste Management Division reserves the riot to request additional
information or waive score of the requirements based on the type of waste if it deems
rosary. The Division may also r,all,;ra some wastes to be treated or altered to render
the wastes OwirmMentally immobile prior to disposal at a sanitary landfill. Wastes
disposed at sanitary landfills must be rim -liquid which can be properly shed in

Re: Implementation Of Subtitle 'D' Ground -water Monitoring Program
Dear Mr. Brown,
The purpose of this correspondence is to provide information and
clarification on the changes in ground -water monitoring requirements
for MSWLF facilities that remain in operation after October 9, 1993.
The proposed North Carolina Solid Waste Management Rules reflect
significant changes for ground -water monitoring based on requirements
of the E.P.A. Subtitle D Rules.
Attachment A to this letter provides a summary of important
dates and significant activities that must be accomplished in order
to be in compliance with the new rules. Attachment B contrasts
existing and proposed ground -water monitoring and assessment
requirements based on changes in the rules. Because of significant
increases in costs that will be incurred in order to operate a MSWLF
under the new Subtitle D Rules, including financial assurance and
increased costs for ground -water monitoring and assessment, you may
wish to seriously consider closing your sanitary landfill prior to
October 9,1993, when the new rules become effective.
When the new rules take effect, MSWLF facilities that have
violations of the North Carolina Groundwater Quality Standards or
facilities that show a significant statistical increase in the level
of any Appendix I constituent will quickly be required to implement
assessment monitoring for all Appendix II constituents. Since the
Groundwater Quality Standards are also used in establishing the
ground -water protection standards, MSWLF facilities with violations
may also rapidly move into assessment of corrective action
alternatives based on a full-scale ground -water investigation to
determine the nature and extent of contamination at the site.

If Madison County chooses to continue to operate their MSWLF
facility after October 9, 1993, then you need to begin planning and
budgeting immediately for the activities outlined in Attachment A. A
revised Water Quality Monitoring Plan must be submitted as part of
the Transition Plan on or before April 9, 1994. The present
monitoring system at the facility will require upgrading to meet the
requirements of the new N.C. Solid Waste Management Rules for MSWLF
facilities. All background sampling and related activities for the
upgraded monitoring system must be completed and reported to the
Division in order to demonstrate compliance with the new water
quality monitoring requirements on or before October 9, 1994.
Please note that the goals and objectives for ground -water
assessment monitoring and ground -water contamination investigations
are the same under both the current and the proposed rules and shall
be accomplished in a way that is protective of human health and the
environment. However, current rules allow for greater flexibility in
the assessment and investigation activities and the sample analytical
costs could be substantially less using the constituent list required
under current rules and policy as compared to analytical costs
required by the new rules based on Subtitle D, which require sampling
for the Appendix II list of constituents.
I hope this letter has been helpful in providing you more
insight into the actions that will be required by Madison County to
maintain compliance with the water quality monitoring requirements of
the Solid Waste Management Rules as we make the transition to the new
rules growing out of the E.P.A. Subtitle D Regulations. If you have
any questions or comments regarding this letter, please contact the
Solid Waste Section at [phone].

Bobby Lutfy, Hydrogeologist

Reference: Madison County Landfill Closure
Permit No. 58-02
Dear Ms. McHarque:
Madison County has ceased solid waste disposal activities at its landfill
on September 30, 1993. The landfill facility will no longer be used as a
transfer site or disposal area for solid waste generated within the
county.
A closure plan for both the Category 1 and Category 2 MSWLF Units is being
prepared by Jensen Engineering. The plan will include the site specific
details of the proposed closure including erosion control and final cover,
meeting the requirements of Rules .0510 and criteria set forth in
Subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule .1627 as applicable.
The following information is provided in accordance with DEHNR memo
updated August 1, 1993, page 5:
A. The solid waste generated by residences and businesses in the county
will be directly taken by the private and county haulers to the newly
permitted Madison County landfill on Sweetwater Road (Permit No. 58-03).
B. There is no transfer facility anticipated to be sited on this
property.
C. No Other waste management activities are planned for this property.

Ms. Jan McHarque
