Pagel of 3 FACILITY COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT D_E Q�� Division of Waste Management NORTH CAROLINA OepaNnent W Environnrenbl puelily Solid Waste Section ADDITIONAL COMMENTS 1. The Life of Site Permit was issued October 23, 2023. The Facility is required to submit an annual facility report on or before August 1 annually. 2. Waste screening reports were reviewed and verified. The facility does not accept many unacceptable waste items. All prohibited/unacceptable items are loaded back onto the incoming truck and hauled out of the facility. 3. The following are facility certified personnel: Brittany Holt, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist, TS-2012079; exp: 07/18/2025 Anthony Bess, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist; TS-2015065; exp: 08/12/2027 Spencer Pernell, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist; TS-2021082; exp: 11/2/2024 Stephen Lowe, Certified Transfer Station Operations Specialist; TS-2022061; exp: 08/18/2025 4. Windblown waste is being well managed at the facility. Windblown waste is picked up throughout the day and properly disposed of in the transfer station. 5. Fencing had been installed along the curbing of the transfer trailer bays to assist in catching windblown waste from the transfer trailer bays. Continue to ensure that the windblown waste is removed from the fencing at the end of the operating day. 6. The curbing that had been installed along the transfer trailer loading bay has become damaged. Mr. Deming stated that the new curbing would be approximately knee high and flush with the edge of the side wall of the transfer trailer loading bay. Mr. Deming also stated that the rock and soil adjacent to the curbing would be removed during the installation of the "push" wall. It is recommended that that the facility collect a confirmation soil sample after the removal of the soil to ensure that any soils, possibly contaminated by leachate, have been removed. Please contact Christine Ritter, (919) 707-8254, Christine.ritter&deq.nc.gov, for sampling protocol. 7. Some areas of standing water were observed on the apron and within the leachate containment area. Mr. Deming stated that the apron would be repaired so that the standing water would drain into the leachate collection system. Additional areas around the scale and parking area would be concreted as well. 8. The waste within the transfer trailer loading bay is consistent with daily operations. The waste is removed from the loading bay between trailer loads and at the end of the day. The recyclable trailer loading bay was free of debris and had recently been washed. Continue to remove waste from the transfer trailer bays as needed throughout the day and at the end of the day. 9. The condition of the tipping floor is consistent with the daily operations of the facility. All waste is removed from the tipping floor at the end of the operating day. The tipping floor is also washed at the end of the operating day. 10. The previously identified standing water area, outside of the fence for the facility, has dried. Mr. Deming and Mr. Pemell had dug down and completed the repaired the water leak. 11. Digital photographs were taken during the inspection.
