available for inspection and examination by any person upon request (NC General Statute 132-6).
Instructions:
• Prepare one form for each individually monitored unit.
• Please type or print legibly.
• Attach a notification table with values that attain or exceed NC 2L groundwater standards or NC 2B surface water standards. The notification
must include a preliminary analysis of the cause and significance of each value. (e.g. naturally occurring, off -site source, pre-existing
condition, etc.).
• Attach a notification table of any groundwater or surface water values that equal or exceed the reporting limits.
Attach a notification table of any methane gas values that attain or exceed explosive gas levels. This includes any structures on or nearby the
facility (NCAC 13B .1629 (4)(a)(i).
• Send the original signed and sealed form, any tables, and Electronic Data Deliverable to: Compliance Unit, NCDENR-DWM, Solid Waste

Third Quarter 2022 Landfill Gas Monitoring Report
Project 2212740.00, Phase 04
Dear Mark:
LaBella Associates (LaBella) is submitting the attached methane monitoring results for the Johns
River Landfill, Permit Number 12-03. The 2022 third quarter landfill gas monitoring event was
performed on August 9, 2022. During this event, gas probes GP-1S, GP-1D, GP-2S, GP-21, GP-2D,
GP-4, GP-5, GP-6, GP-7, and GP-8 were monitored in accordance with the facility's Landfill Gas
Monitoring Plan. The gas vents in the old C&D-over-MSW waste unit (GV-1 through GV-7) were also
monitored.
The facility buildings, including the scale house (GMP-1), the shop (GMP-2), the office (GMP-3), the
shed (GMP-4), the shooting range (GMP-13), and the Recycling Center (GMP-14) were also monitored
on August 9, 2022, as were ambient air monitoring points GMP-5 through GMP-12. The locations of
the gas probes and monitoring points are depicted in Drawing 1. The monitoring data for the gas
probes and buildings are summarized in the attached Landfill Gas Monitoring Data Forms.
The lower explosive limit (LEL) for methane is 5% by volume and the LEL for hydrogen sulfide is 4%
by volume. Methane was detected above the LEL in gas probe, GP-2S (28.9%); however, the GP-2
probes are not considered boundary probes, they are located between the old, closed landfill and the
active C&D landfill. Neither methane nor hydrogen sulfide were detected above the LEL in any other
gas probes or ambient air locations, nor were they detected above 25% of the LEL in any of the
buildings. Methane and hydrogen sulfide detections are summarized in Table 1. Exceedances of
the LEL are summarized in Table 2.
Hydrogen sulfide was not detected above 1 part per million (ppm) in any of the gas probes,
monitoring points, or structures; however, it was detected above 5 ppm in gas vents, GV-2, GV-5, and
GV-7. Hydrogen sulfide was detected in exceedance of the short-term exposure limit (STEL) in gas
vent, GV-7 at 44 ppm. Note that the OSHA STEL for hydrogen sulfide is 15 ppm. These are
potentially dangerous concentrations of hydrogen sulfide, so precautions should be taken by any
person working near the gas vents.

We have included a NCDEQ Environmental Monitoring Report Form (EMRF) and will forward a copy of
this report to Jaclynne Drummond with the NCDEQ Solid Waste Section. A copy of this report should
be maintained in the facility's records. The next quarterly monitoring event is scheduled for the
fourth quarter of 2022. If we can provide any additional information, please do not hesitate to call
me at [phone].
