ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. The facility is fenced and is secured by a locking gate when it is not open for operations.
2. The correct signage is at the entrance of the facility listing the facility name, permit number and emergency contact
information as well as materials accepted at the facility.
3. The facility accepts yard waste, white goods, electronics, and scrap tires Monday through Friday from 0800 to 1630
and Saturday from 0800 to 1200.
MSWLF (Closed
4. No overgrown vegetation was observed on the closed MSWLF. Continue to mow the MSWLF as often as necessary
to allow for proper inspection.
5. No areas of standing water or subsidence were observed during this inspection. Continue to monitor the closed
MSWLF and repair areas as needed.
6. Edge of waste markers were observed around the Closed MSWLF.
7. A leachate seep was identified near a drainage area near the top of the southern side slope. Ms. Thompson did not
observe the leachate leaving the adjacent drainage area of the leachate seep nor did it leave the edge of waste
markers. Ms. Thompson notified Mr. Falls of the leachate seep following the inspection. Mr. Falls stated that the
leachate seep would be investigated and repaired. Continue to inspect the closed MSWLF for additional leachate
seeps and repair as needed.
Yard Waste
8. The yard waste area consisted of two large static piles. It is recommended that the yard waste be windrowed to
allow for additional drainage and accessibility for fire fighting vehicles.
9. Several areas of standing water were observed adjacent to the yard waste stockpiles. However, the organic leachate
was contained on -site and did not leave the yard waste area. Continue to monitor and grade the yard waste area
as needed to continue to shed water from the yard waste storage area and ensure that leachate is contained
on -site.
10. Some unacceptable wastes were observed within the yard waste area. The unacceptable wastes are removed from
the waste stream as they are encountered and properly disposed of. Continue to monitor incoming loads and
remove any unacceptable waste as needed.
11. The yard waste piles were accessible on all sides.
White Goods and Scrap Tire Area
12. The large concrete pad for the white goods and scrap tires was in good condition and properly sloped to prevent
ponding water.
13. The white goods were upright and neatly stored on the concrete pad. The refrigerants are removed by the contractor.
14. The electronics are palletized and wrapped prior to transportation to the recycler.
15. Scrap tires are stored at the opposite end of the concrete pad from the white goods. The scrap tires are picked up
once or twice a week.
16. Digital photographs were taken during the inspection.
