At the time of this inspection, windblown waste was observed outside of the transfer station building, within the trailer loading area, and within the trailer staging area. All of the windblown waste must be collected and returned to the transfer station prior to close of business daily. 9. During this inspection, several large areas of cracks and holes were observed in the tipping floor. Some of the concrete has come loose and been removed during daily operations. The holes in the concrete did not go all the way through the tipping floor. During a phone call with Mr. Chad Beane, Harnett County Solid Waste Director, after the inspection, Mr. Beane stated that he was budgeting to replace the tipping floor during the next year. Monitor the tipping floor daily to ensure that the holes do not grow in size and that leachate is not coming in contact with the soils below the tipping floor. Modification of where waste is placed on the tipping floor may be required to avoid the damaged areas. The sampling of soils beneath the tipping floor may be required to determine if leachate has come in contact with the soils. 10. During this inspection, one trailer was found to be dripping leachate from the trailer gate. No leachate was leaving the pavement area. Mr. Holland had a trough placed underneath the leak to collect the leachate. The trucking company also utilized chains and bars to tighten the seal of the trailer. Once the seal was tightened, no leachate was observed leaking from the trailer. Mr. Holland told the trucking company that the trailer would need to be repaired. Ensure that the trailers are frequently inspected to identify potential points for leakage. Trailers may also be parked in a manner to reduce the potential for leakage from the gate of the trailer. 11. During this inspection, numerous televisions within the electronics recycling area were stored face down and some glass was broken. The electronic goods should be stored upright to prevent glass breakage and under cover to protect the recycling value. 12. The white goods were stored upright on the concrete.
