OBSERVED VIOLATIONS: None FACILITY COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT Division of Waste Management Solid Waste Section Page 2 of 5 ADDITIONAL COMMENTS 1. All photos were taken by Lee Hill on November 1, 2016 2. The facility is currently filling in Phase 5 of the landfill. 3. Minimal windblown litter was observed and was being well managed at the time of inspection. 4. The working face was small, compact and appeared to be able to be covered with approved alternative daily cover. 5. No unacceptable waste was observed on the working face at the time of inspection. 6. The addition of intermediate cover to Phases 1-4 has been completed. The phases have been seeded, mulched and some vegetation has begun to emerge. The facility only received 0.4 inches of rain during the month of October and due to the lack of rain the germination of groundcover has been slower than expected. 7. Portions of the slopes in Phases 1-4 have been matted to help prevent erosion. 8. Slope drains and berms have been installed in Phases 1-4. 9. The facility is in the process of upgrading Edge of Waste Markers in Phases 1-4. 10. Significant progress has been made to address the issues noted in the August 3, 2016 Notice of Violation. When groundcover sufficient to restrain erosion is established in Phases 1-4 the outstanding issues can be resolved. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report. _________________________________ Phone: 828-296-4700__ Lee Hill Environmental Senior Specialist Regional Representative Sent on: November 4, 2016 to Jeff Brookshire by X Email Hand delivery US Mail Certified No. [ _] Copies: Jason Watkins, Field Operations Branch Head Deb Aja, District Supervisor - Solid Waste Section Jessica Montie, Compliance Officer - Solid Waste Section Jaime Laughter, Transylvania County Manager David McNeill, Assistant Transylvania County Manager The item(s) listed above were observed by Section staff and require action on behalf of the facility in order to come into or maintain compliance with the Statutes, Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility.
