ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. David Powell met with Moore County staff to conduct a comprehensive inspection. Inspection was also for Section Staff to meet new faces that are involved with landfill at Moore County, now that Mr. David Lambert is no longer Solid Waste Director. In addition, Interim Director Philip Boles is soon leaving for retirement again and Mr. Jimmy
Brown about to retire, with potential of returning part time. Roads were of all-weather construction, and facility is behind gate/fence beyond entrance. Signage at entrance to landfill and additional inside facility controlling traffic onsite. A dust vehicle is being purchased and should arrive around February. Current operations are in Cell 6.

Entrance to landfill with Scalehouse and signage. Fence and gate.

2. At the time of this inspection, the CDLF working face appeared to be within one-half acre or less. Two roll offs
were near by for unapproved wastes. Nothing should be stored on the landfill or inside the Edge of Waste (EOW). If roll off are to be used, then they should be removed everyday and brought back the following working day. The working face shall be maintained in accordance with the rules 15A NCAC 13B .0542 (f) and .0542 (g).
Cell 6 – Working face, roll offs not to be stored inside EOW.

3. Working face didn’t have nay unapproved waste during inspection. Good job.

4. Visible from the access road, are some rills and eroded areas along with some possible seeps. Stay on top of these
issues or may have exposed waste, or worse issues which are harder to bring back into compliance. Erosion on slopes shall be repaired before seeding and establishing vegetation.

Cell 5 meets Cell 6, wet area, possible seep.
5. Along perimeter of EOW of Cell 6 there is some older mulched waste left long western edge, just barely outside EOW for the new cell. Mr. Lambert indicated they left this to use with soil as 50/50 ADC when new cell starts. This material was placed in this location originally as a temporary storage, not permanent. It should be utilized and not left in place. This should be utilized or removed. Follow ADC guidance. Also, off to side of working face of cell 6, some C and D waste that’s mostly soil, is being accepted and stored. If accepting this waste, separate the waste from the soil, otherwise it is considered waste that should be covered and isn’t so its exposed waste. The loads coming in that are not worth the County’s time separating, should perhaps just be taken to the working face and covered upon acceptance.
Older composted YW berm in background, C and D waste soil separation visible also.

6. Be sure and keep all Cell 6 structures to design, plan and operational specifications. Keep the remaining area of the cell vegetated to keep erosion and damage from occurring to new cell, as well as sediment filling up storm water ponds again. Outfalls for the storm water ponds, also sampling points, should be mowed, and maintained. 7. Atop Cell 5 looking into new cell 6, there was some erosion rills on that side slope. Mulch was onsite, still needing spreading, but soil should be paced first. Keep mulch to a maximum thickness of 4 inches and be sure not to use for Beneficial Fill. Slopes looked good but there was some soil cover needed on top of older cells of CDLF. Once rills have been fixed and mulch applied and spread, please reestablish vegetation. Note: ADC 50/50 Soil Mulch cannot be used for intermediate cover, this must be soil. Mulch can be used on top for erosion control and to help establish vegetative cover.
15A NCAC 13B .0542 (f) (3) - Areas that will not have additional wastes placed on them for three months or more, but where final termination of disposal operations has not occurred, shall be covered and stabilized with vegetative ground cover or other stabilizing material as provided for in Subparagraph (4)
of this Paragraph.

8. Records reviewed consisted of: waste screening Scalehouse docs, several monthly volume analysis, waste and
recycling records tracking costs and tonnages, operations plan and permits, previous inspections, new contact information for staff, weekly staff logs, cover logs, vendor lists for waste removal and haulers, scrap tire certifications, methane monitoring for 4th quarter, groundwater monitoring for October 2022.
Cover logs should indicate what type of cover is used and date and time, per rule. If ADC is sued, it should indicate. Please be sure and have this information in cover logs going forward. Follow ADC guidance, emailed on 12/30/2022, if using ADC 50/50 Mulch is approved at CDLF only. 15A NCAC 13B .0542 (f)(2) - Except as provided in Subparagraph (4) of this Paragraph, the owners and operators of all C&DLF units shall cover the solid waste with six inches of earthen material when the waste disposal area exceeds one-half acre and no less than once weekly. Cover shall be placed at more frequent
intervals if necessary to prevent the escape of waste and the attraction of vectors and scavenging, and to minimize fires and the generation of odors. A notation of the date and time of the cover placement shall be recorded in the operating record as specified in Paragraph (n) of this Rule.
Certified Transfer Station Operators: Jonathan Ferguson, expires November 12, 2025; Jimmy Brown, expires March 9, 2024; Christopher Patterson, expires August 24, 2023; Harry Hoyt, expires March 9, 2024; Charlie
Marks, expires June 22, 2024.
9. There seems to be some exceedances with methane at landfill. Any gas exceedances must be reported and have several corrective actions that need to be addressed at that point. Please work with Ms. Jaclynne Drummond on gas/water monitoring onsite. She is the Hydrogeologist assigned to your landfill. She may need to see more data from this past year’s gas monitoring. Be sure and follow her guidance on any corrective actions or additional sampling that may be needed onsite. All groundwater and gas monitoring should be sent to Jaclynne Drummond [e-mail] or (828-296-4706). Upon discussion with Mr. Boles, he has informed Mr. Powell, “that the County’s consulting engineer, Ed Henriques of S&ME, works very closely with Ms. Drummond on Moore County’s behalf regarding the exceedances. Active remediation and MNA are
currently be implemented in coordination with Ms. Drummond’s office.” 15A NCAC 13B .0544 (d)(3) - If explosive gas levels exceeding the limits specified in Subparagraph (1) of this Paragraph are detected, the owner and operator shall: (A) upon discovery of detection, notify the Division and take any steps that may be necessary to ensure
protection of human health, such as evacuation or monitoring of offsite structures for explosive gases; (B) within seven days of detection, place in the operating record the explosive gas levels detected and a

description of the steps taken to protect human health; and (C) within 60 days of detection, implement a remediation plan for the explosive gas releases, place a copy of the plan in the operating record, and notify the Division that the plan has been implemented. The plan shall describe the nature and extent of the problem and the proposed remedy. 10. Wells were visited while onsite, which consisted of : GW 3576, (gray well beside this one had no information on the label and should be updated to show correct information), GP-20, GP-21, MW6 (BD1). All wells inspected had covers with locks and were in good shape.
Located just north of CDLF along access road. Needs label updated on left well in photo.

11. White goods waste area still being staged outdoors and not on a pad. One big, comingled pile with some
separation of newer units that have not had CFCs removed. It was recommended that a concrete pad be constructed, or the site graded properly, and the waste be sorted and kept orderly, separating by items ready for Freon to be removed and the items that already had the Freon removed. A 300-foot by 300-foot gravel pad was going to be built for this area to sort and separate. A method of marking the items with gas removed should be implemented as well.
Scrap metal up front, white goods with CFCs to side.

12. Glass storage between scrap metal and Transfer Station along access road to Station. Area surrounding glass has standing water and should be addressed. Any water comingling with glass or leaving glass area would be considered leachate and should not be allowed to discharge or soak into ground.

13. Corrective measures are necessary at this site based on observations during inspection. Continue to work on the issues mentioned onsite and this inspection. Failure to meet the conditions for compliance may result in additional Compliance Actions. Also, continue to communicate with the Section and updating David Powell.
