Dear Mr. Hunter:

The Solid Waste Section has completed a review of the Appendix I Inorganic Constituent Exceedances
letter dated August 23, 2016 (DIN 26687) and submitted on behalf of Buncombe County by SCS Engineers,
PC for the Buncombe County Subtitle D MSW Landfill, Solid Waste Permit Number 1107. The letter was
submitted in response to a Solid Waste Section letter dated August 8, 2016 (DIN 26545).

Buncombe County is requesting an extension to submit the ASD by January 5, 2017.
