From 1979 to 1997, the Edgecombe County Municipal Solid Waste Landfill (MSWLF) operated on this property as a permitted MSWLF under Permit No. 33-01, with a disposal area of 68 acres. The landfill was not constructed with a liner below the waste. The unlined MSWLF was incrementally operated from the eastern section toward the western section. The eastern section, encompassing approximately 33 acres, began receiving waste in 1979 and was closed in 1991. The western section, encompassing approximately 35 acres, began receiving waste in 1991, stopped receiving wastes in 1997, and was closed in 2000. The size of the closed unlined MSWLF disposal area is 68 acres. The volume of the closed unlined MSWLF is approximately 340,618 tons or approximately 681,236 cubic yards. 2. In 1997, the transition plan for the MSWLF included a permit modification request to construct and operate a Construction and Demolition Debris Landfill (C&DLF) Unit on top of the closed unlined MSWLF. On December 30, 1997 the C&DLF Unit – Phase 1 began receiving waste. According to the Resolution of the Edgecombe County Board of Commissioners dated June 30, 2014, the C&DLF Unit consists of a 35.34-acre waste footprint and has a remaining waste capacity of 964,500 cubic yards (as of June 2013) and estimated service life of approximately 29.2 years, based on the average waste disposal rate of 13,000 tons per year (DIN 26597).
