ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. The facility is a closed unlined Industrial Landfill that ceased receiving waste in December 2002 and had been
used for the disposal of fly ash from R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company's manufacturing operations.
2. In September 2012 the facility completed the installation of a new cap system for the landfill to help with the
stormwater runoff.
3. In February 2020 the facility discovered a sediment boil that had developed on the side slope of the closed
landfill. Mr. Snow stated that the sediment boil was repaired and has not returned since the repairs were
completed. During the inspection no evidence of the sediment boil was observed.
4. The facility ceased submitting monthly reports to the Section in regard to the sediment boil on March 22, 2022.
5. The facility transitioned to conducting an annual groundwater monitoring as of May 31, 2022. The most recent
annual groundwater monitoring report was provided by Mr. Scott Snow and was reviewed.
6. The facility access is secured by a locking gate located at the roadway entrance with a secondary locking cable
strung between two bollards located further down the access roadway.
7. The facility roadways are of all-weather construction and were in good condition.
8. Edge of waste markers were observed to be in place.
9. The landfill side slopes were observed to be in good condition with no trees or woody vegetation. The landfill
side slopes were observed to have well -established vegetative cover. No evidence of leachate seeps were
observed.
10. The landfill cap was observed to have an established vegetative cover and was observed to be in good
condition. No ponding water was observed.
11. Drainage ditches were observed to be clear and in good condition.
12. The site stormwater control devices were observed and found to be in good condition and functioning properly.
13. All of the facilities monitoring wells were inspected and found to be properly tagged and locked. During the
inspection monitoring wells MW-1, MW-2, and MW-6 were observed to be missing the protective concrete
pad. After the inspection Mr. Snow provided pictures with the monitoring wells with a new concrete pad
installed around the steel casings.
