The purpose of this inspection was to do a routine inspection and follow up on the closure of this facility. The gate was open upon arrival, and Section staff drove onto LCID. Mr. Casavant has previously been contacted and asked to submit the required documentation for closure and information to resolve the previous violations. Please do so ASAP once corrective actions have been addressed. Also, please ensure the LCIDLF has the required depth of soil cover for closure, which should be reflected in the engineering document that will be submitted to Section Permitting. 2. The permit for the Stump Hole LCID landfill expired in September of 2018. Annual fees are still required until closed according to the rules. Post Closure Care will now also be required for ten years. 3. Upon receiving all required documents and returning for final closure follow up inspection, there should be nothing on the landfill or inside EOW markers. It was noted during a previous inspection that new EOW markers had been added. T-posts were still visible and represented the EOW, according to Mr. Casavant previously. It should be determined if all these markers are EOW markers and in correct locations. Inspector will need to revisit for closure and verify the distance of buffers using these EOW markers. Permit Condition No. 10, Part 1 of Attachment 3 of the Permit to Operated dated September 16, 2013 (DIN 18927) - The permanent markers that accurately delineate the waste disposal boundary must be maintained. The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility.

If not already done so, landowner should communicate with the Sections Permitting Branch Head Sherri Stanley at 919-707-8235 or sherri.stanley@deq.nc.gov, and with Moore County, to ensure all requirements that are needed for closure.

Also, DEMLR should be contacted, (910-433-3300 Tim LaBounty) in regards to any mining, sedimentation and erosion control and storm water requirements. 6. The Section has not received the required documentation to close the site. Once the property is sold, the new owner can apply for a permit at that time if they wish, but the site must be properly closed and in compliance per the rules before submitting a new application for permit. Please bring this site into compliance and submit the required closure documentation. Once the issues at this site have been addressed then the Violations can be resolved. 7. Corrective measures are necessary to bring the landfill into compliance. Confirm EOW markers/location and that site is compliant with buffer rules.

All Equipment removed from landfill and inside EOW markers. Check with Moore County Solid Waste/Planning and Zoning on closure requirements. Check with DEMLR on closure requirements.
