Re: Sampling Plan In Response To Leachate Release
Hanes Mill Road Landfill
Forsyth County
Solid Waste Permit Number 3402
DIN 26454

Dear Mr. Gibson:

The Solid Waste Section has completed a review of the Sampling Plan In Response To Leachate Release
dated July 11, 2016 (DIN 26453) and submitted on behalf of the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County
City/County Utilities Commission by Golder Associates NC, Inc. for the Hanes Mill Road Landfill, Solid
Waste Permit Number 3402. The plan was submitted in response to a leachate release that occurred at
the landfill.

The Sampling Plan In Response To Leachate Release includes subsurface soil sampling and surface water
sampling at specific locations. Five subsurface soil samples will be collected. A background sample will
be collected to characterize the native soils and baseline concentrations at the facility. The subsurface
soil samples will be analyzed for Appendix I of 40 CFR 258 (Volatile Organic Compounds and Metals) and
pH. In addition, two surface water samples will be collected from Grassy Creek. The surface water
samples will be analyzed for Appendix I of 40 CFR 258 (Volatile Organic Compounds and Metals), BOD,
COD, and chloride. A report of the results will then be submitted to the Solid Waste Section.
As a result, the Sampling Plan In Response To Leachate Release is approved as described. Please
implement the plan within seven days of receipt of this letter. If you have any questions or concerns
regarding this letter, please feel free to contact me by email at [e-mail] or by
phone at 828.296.4706. Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.

Sincerely,
