ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. At this facility there are two notified LCID landfills, N1089 upfront, and N1104 in rear. Site has been closed to the public and no waste dumped in sometime. Closure activities have begun onsite. The notified sites were located on separate parcels and meet all required property line buffers back in 2019. Mr. Harris previously
confirmed that a surveyor is pending to confirm all Harris trucking NLCIDS proper size, corner markers installed, buffers etc. No current signage at site since not accepting waste and has begun closure.
N1089 north side slope.
2. According to the new LCID Rule 15A NCAC 13B .0563(6), effective January 1, 2021, the notification facilities have to be either closed out or converted into a permitted facility by January 1, 2026.
3. Since the last visit much work has been done at the NLCIDs. Soil has been added across the NLCID, compacted, and sloped. This has addressed the need for additional waste cover and erosion previously identified. 4. Road access is now available around the perimeter of the NLCID. Grass has been seeded across much of the NLCID and the road around perimeter. 5. The limits of the N1089 NLCID were measured with a laser range finder. One side measured ~ 351ft and the other ~ 225 ft. This puts the current size of the NLCID under 2 acres. EOW markers are needed at the four corners.

6. Upon review of Moore County GIS tax records/mapping, it seems the two NLCIDs are not meeting pre-2021 rules in their original siting or placement. First, the pre-2021 rule not met is 15A NCAC 13B .0563, by having more than 2 contiguous acres of disposal on one parcel. Second, is not meeting pre-2021 rule 15A NCAC 13B .0564 buffers to property lines. N1089 Front NLCID is on parcel #00013973 and N1104 Back NLCID is on both parcel #00013973 and adjacent parcel # 00990775. See screenshot image below, taken from county tax GIS website by David Powell on 12/8/2023. It’s possible the county online tax records are not up to date and
do not reflect the most up to date information regarding maps, parcel info. and property lines etc. Current LCID rules, since 2021, 15A NCAC 13B .0563 (5) require owner or operators to have one site per parcel. Buffers from property lines have not changed from new rules, 15A NCAC 13B .0564, and require 100 ft from property lines. N1089 NLCID seems to be placed correctly with regard to property lines but N1104 is not. This issue will need to be addressed by either moving waste onto the two different parcels to meet buffers/new rules or separating the property to allow for the two NLCIDs to be on separated parcels meeting buffer/rule. The site is going through closure and can address these issues and then provide the documentation with closure or can provide documents confirming that this issue has already been fixed and the counties information is just not as accurate. Contact David Powell, 919-280-5135, should further explanation be needed to understand this situation and needs for closure.

7. All NLCIDs should be fully closed according to rule by January 1, 2026 or permitted. The closure requirements are in the rules, .0567, but here is a generalization: Once site meets rule requirements, then to finalize closure, the Section requires:
• A cap survey and PLAT map is required to be completed, by a land surveyor, with their name and company name, official stamp and signature, certifying that at least one foot of suitable soil cover has been placed over the entire landfill, utilizing 4 random test holes per acre.
• Photos of test holes, GPS location of each bore hole, also referenced on the cap survey/PLAT map.
• The survey should be recorded with the County Register of Deeds and documentation provided.
• A letter to the Section stating that the owners, “Request closure and have completed the corrective actions in recent inspections.” In addition, this letter should include the name of the facility, notification number, owners name, return mailing address and contact information and be signed by the landowner.
• Digital copies of all these items should be emailed to Section/David Powell. 8. Please submit closure documents ASAP. A follow-up inspection will be needed to confirm all corrective actions and closure activities are completed per rule. Post Closure Care will be needed according to Rule
15A NCAC 13B .0567 for ten years following closure. 9. Corrective measures are necessary as a result of this inspection and should be met within 30 days receipt of this inspection. Failure to meet the conditions for compliance may result in Compliance Actions. If additional time is needed, please communicate with Mr. Powell, and discuss before the end of the deadline timeframe.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report. _________________________________________ Phone: 919-280-5135_____ David Powell Environmental Senior Specialist Regional Representative
