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 213 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).

Landfill Gas Monitoring Report - Third Quarter of 2023
Project 2233479, Phase 04
Dear Mark,
LaBella Associates (LaBella) is submitting the attached methane monitoring report for the East
Burke Landfill, Permit Number 12-02. The 2023 third quarter landfill gas monitoring event was
performed on August 29, 2023. During this event, LaBella monitored seven gas probes (GP-1,
GP-113, GP-2, GP-3, GP-4, GP-5, and GP-6). The approximate locations of the gas probes are depicted
in Drawing 1. The monitoring data for the gas probes and buildings are summarized in the attached
Landfill Gas Monitoring Data Log.
Methane was detected above the lower explosive limit (LEL) in gas probes GP-3 (52.9%) and GP-4
(55.8%). These exceedances are consistent with previous results. The detections and exceedances
are summarized in Tabie 1 and Table 2, respectively.
We have included a NCDEQ Environmental Monitoring Reporting 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 2023. If we can provide any additional information, please do not hesitate to
call me at [phone].
Respectfully submitted,
LaBella Associates
