1.0 GENERAL FACILITY OPERATION
1.1 Overview
This Operations Manual was prepared for the WI High Point Landfill Facility, which
operates as a construction and demolition debris (C&D) landfill (Permit No. 41-16) and is
owned by WI High Point, LLC (a subsidiary of Waste Industries USA, Inc.). The WI High
Point LF is located at 5830 Riverdale Road in Jamestown, North Carolina; as shown on
the Site Vicinity Map, included as Figure 1. This document discusses C&D landfill unit
operations and other solid waste management activities:

 Scales and scale house facilities;
 Construction and Demolition Debris (C&D) landfill;
 Reclamation Activities.

Figure 2 presents existing and proposed landfill units and other solid waste
management activity locations.

The information contained herein was prepared to provide facility with a clear
understanding of how the Design Engineer assumed that the completed facility would be
operated. While deviations from the operations outlined here may be acceptable, they
should be reviewed and approved by the Design Engineer. Please refer to the
appropriate permit application for a detailed discussion and calculations for the
individual components of each landfill unit, including phasing plans.

1.3 Facility Operations
1.3.1 Facility Operating Hours
Normal hours of operation will be 7:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. Monday through Friday
and occasionally on Saturdays as needed. The facility will be closed on holidays
as designated by the Owner. The Owner may elect to modify these hours from
time to time.
1.3.2 Operating Capacity
The WI High Point LF is approved to accept approximately 315 tons per day,
assuming 285 operational days per year, or 98,600 tons per year, per the
franchise amendment granted by the High Point City Council on May 18, 2009.1
1.3.3 Service Area
The WI High Point facility is permitted to receive solid waste generated within the
following Counties of the State of North Carolina (Figure 3) consistent with the
franchise amendment approved by the City of High Point: Guilford, Randolph,
Davidson, Forsyth, Rockingham, Caswell, Alamance, Orange, Cabarrus, Rowan,
Davie, Yadkin, Surry, and Stokes.
1.4 Access Control
Limiting access to the WI High Point LF facility is important for the following reasons:

 Unauthorized and illegal dumping of waste materials is prevented.
 Trespassing, and injury resulting therefrom, is discouraged.
 The risk of vandalism is greatly reduced.

Access to active areas of the landfill will be controlled by a combination of fences and
natural barriers, and strictly enforced operating hours through the landfill entrance off
of Riverdale Road. A scalehouse attendant will be on duty at all times when the landfill
facility is open for public use to enforce access restrictions.
1.4.1 Physical Restraints
The site is accessed by an entrance road that intersects Riverdale Road on the
eastern edge of the property. Scales and a scale house are provided along the
entrance road where all refuse trucks entering the facility are weighed when
entering and exiting the facility.

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 4
1.4.2 Security
The entrance, on Riverdale Road, has a gate that is securely locked during non-
operating hours. Frequent gate and fence inspections will be performed by
landfill personnel. Evidence of trespassing, vandalism, or illegal operation will
be reported to the Owner.
1.5 Signage
A prominent sign(s) containing the information required by the DWM is located
immediately inside the main entrance to the facility. This sign(s) will provide information
on operating hours, operating procedures, acceptable wastes and/or information as
required under the facility permit. Additional signage will be provided as necessary
within the waste disposal complex to distinguish the roadways to the active waste
disposal areas, manage and direct traffic, regulate speed limits, identify groundwater
monitoring wells, and define waste boundaries. Service and maintenance roads for use
by operations personnel will be clearly marked and barriers (e.g., traffic cones, barrels,
etc.) will be provided as required. Landfill personnel will routinely inspect the conditions
of the posted signage to ensure that they are clearly visible and intact. Damaged or
missing signage will be replaced.
1.5.1 Waste Limit Markers
During construction of new phases, expansion of the facility, or following closure
of areas, waste limit markers will be used to identify the permitted limits of
waste. The waste markers will be constructed of non-degradable material and
will clearly state “waste limit” or “edge of liner” in bold lettering. Offsets are
acceptable such that all wording is clear to DWM and operational staff. The waste
markers will be maintained and replaced when damaged.
1.6 Communications
Two way radio communications is maintained between the landfill and reclamation
operations, the landfill manager, and the scale house and office. The scale house and
site office have telephones in case of emergency and for the conduct of day-to-day
business. Emergency telephone numbers are displayed in these locations. Cellular
phones are available for key operating staff (i.e. managers, operators).
1.7 Fire Control
Although no open burning of waste is allowed at the facility, the possibility of fire within
the processing and storage areas, the landfill, or a piece of equipment must be
anticipated in the daily operation of the facility. Potential fire hazards include both
surface conditions and subsurface conditions. Surface conditions include equipment
operations and newly placed waste. Subsurface conditions include existing waste
previously landfilled.

May 2016 Page 6

 Accelerated high temperature combustion (displacing fuel);
 Covering of the landfill burn area with soil (reduce oxygen);
 Covering of the burn area with foams (reduce oxygen);
 Flooding the burn area with water (reduce heat);
 Injecting an inert gas such as CO2 (reduce oxygen);
 Excavating the burning material (displacing fuel) and then extinguishing it
in small controlled areas; and
 Applying extinguishing agents that will interfere with and inhibit the
combustion process at the molecular level (break the chemical reaction).
1.7.5 Fires Within Disposal Areas
Fires within the landfill disposal areas will be limited by the use of periodic cover
as a fire break and control of "hot" loads entering the landfill. Trained personnel
at the scale house will turn away trucks containing waste that is suspected to be
hot. If a hot load is placed on the working face, then the load will be spread as
thin as possible and cover soil will be immediately placed on the waste to
extinguish the fire.

In general, fires that break out close to the surface of the disposal area should be
excavated and smothered with cover material. Deep fires should be smothered
out by placing moist soil on the surface and by constructing soil barriers around
the fire. Where the smothering technique fails, the burning material must be
excavated and smothered or quenched with water once the burning material is
brought to the surface. Water is usually not effective unless it can be directly
applied to the burning material.
1.7.6 Notification
The Operator will verbally notify the DWM (Section 1.2.3) within 24 hours of
discovery of a fire within any landfill disposal area. In addition, written
documentation describing the fire, the actions carried out to extinguish the fire,
and a strategy for preventing future occurrences will be provided to the DWM
within 15 days following any such occurrence on the Fire Occurrence
Notification Form included in Appendix A.
1.7.7 Coordination With Local Fire Department
A copy of this Operations Manual will be filed with the local fire department
including all contact information for the facility.
1.8 Severe Weather Conditions
Unusual weather conditions can directly affect the operation of the facility. Some of
these weather conditions and recommended operational responses are as follows.
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 7
1.8.1 Ice Storms
An ice storm can make access to the facility dangerous, prevent movement or
placement of cover soil, thus, may require closure of the landfill and reclamation
area until the ice is removed or has melted. The determination to discontinue
activities due to inclement weather conditions will be made by the Landfill
Manager.
1.8.2 Heavy Rains
Exposed soil surfaces can create a muddy situation in some portions of the
facility during rainy periods. The control of drainage and use of crushed stone on
unpaved roads should provide all-weather access for the site and promote
drainage away from critical areas. In areas where the aggregate surface is
washed away or otherwise damaged, new aggregate should be used for repair.

Intense rains can affect newly constructed drainage structures such as swales,
diversions, cover soils, and vegetation. After such a rain event, inspection by
facility personnel will be initiated and corrective measures implemented to
repair any damage found before the next rainfall.
1.8.3 Electrical Storms
The open area of a landfill is susceptible to the hazards of an electrical storm. If
necessary, facility activities will be temporarily suspended during such an event.
Refuge will be sought as necessary in on-site buildings or in rubber-tired
vehicles.
1.8.4 Windy Conditions
Facility operations during a particularly windy period may require that the
working face be temporarily shifted to a more sheltered area. When this is done,
the previously exposed face will be immediately covered with cover materials.
1.8.5 Violent Storms
In the event of hurricane, tornado, or severe winter storm warning issued by the
National Weather Service, facility operations may be temporarily suspended until
the warning is lifted. Equipment will be properly secured. A radio capable of
tuning to NOAA Weather Radio-Providence shall be periodically monitored by
landfill personnel.

1.11 Health and Safety
Facility operations were developed with the health and safety of the operating staff,
customers, and neighbors in mind. Prior to commencement of operations of the facility,
a member of the operating staff will be designated site safety officer. This individual,
together with the facility's management will modify the site safety and emergency
response program to remain consistent with SWANA and Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) guidance.

Safety equipment provided includes equipment rollover protective cabs, seat belts,
audible reverse warning devices, hard hats, safety shoes, and first aid kits. Facility
personnel will be encouraged to complete the American Red Cross Basic First Aid
Course. Other safety requirements may also be implemented as designated by the
Owner and Operator.

Facility employees training in health and safety by supervisory staff will be documented.
All on-the-job injuries are required to be reviewed by a doctor.

The following are some general recommendations for the health and safety of workers:
1.11.1 Personal Hygiene
The following items are recommended as a minimum of practice:

 Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking.
 Wear personal protective equipment as described in Section 1.11.2.
 Wash, disinfect, and bandage ANY cut, no matter how small. Any break in
the skin can become a source of infection.
 Keep fingernails closely trimmed and clean (dirty nails can harbor
pathogens).
1.11.2 Personal Protective Equipment

2.0 WASTE HANDLING OPERATIONS
This section describes the required waste handling operations for the WI High Point LF.
2.1 Acceptable Waste
The WI High Point LF will only accept waste that is generated from the approved service
areas (Figure 3) and is consistent with the North Carolina solid waste regulations and
general conditions established in the operating permit. The acceptance of waste
materials must satisfy the following definitions:

 Construction and Demolition Debris Waste: as defined in G.S. 130A-290 (a)(4)
means solid waste resulting solely from construction, remodeling, repair or
demolition operations on pavement, buildings, or other structures, but does not
include inert debris, land-clearing debris or yard waste.
 Inert Debris Waste: as defined in G.S. 130A-290 (a)(14) means solid waste which
consists solely of material that is virtually inert and that is likely to retain its
physical and chemical structure under expected conditions of disposal, materials
such as unpainted rock, brick, concrete, concrete block, uncontaminated soil,
rock, and gravel.
 Land Clearing and Inert Debris Waste: as defined in G.S. 130A-290 (a)(15) means
solid waste that is generated solely from land-clearing activities, such as yard
trash, stumps, and tree trunks.
 Asphalt: in accordance with G.S. 130-294 (m).
 Asbestos: as defined by 40 CFR 61.
 Other Waste: other solid waste as approved by the Solid Waste Section of the
Division of Waste Management.

In addition, the special wastes described in Section 2.4.3 may also be accepted at this
facility.
2.2 Prohibited Wastes
In accordance with 15A NCAC 13B .0542(e), municipal solid waste (MSW), liquid or
industrial waste and yard trash will not be accepted at the facility. Shingles identified as
asbestos containing materials (ACMs) as defined by 40 CFR 61 will not be processed at
the reclamation pad. Shingles will be managed in accordance with the procedures
described in Section 3.4. Hazardous waste as defined by 15A NCAC 13A including
hazardous waste from conditionally exempt small quantity generators will not be
accepted at the facility. Wastes as described within NC General Statute §130A-309.10(f)
shall not be accepted, except wooden pallets which may be disposed in construction and
demolition debris per §130A-309.10(f)(12). Barrels and drums shall not be accepted
unless they are empty and perforated with no materials or wastes contained within. No
polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) waste will be accepted. WI High Point Landfill, LLC will
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 14
implement a waste screening program described in Section 2.3, to prohibit these types
of waste.

WI High Point Landfill, LLC will not knowingly dispose of C&D waste from areas by which
local government ordinances prohibit the disposal of C&D waste.

Asbestos waste may be accepted by the facility if handled according to Section 2.4.3.1.
2.3 Waste Screening Programs
To assure prohibited wastes are not entering the landfill facility, screening programs
have been implemented. Waste received at the scale house entrance and directed to the
working face or reclamation area is inspected by trained personnel. These individuals
have been trained to spot indications of unacceptable and suspicious wastes, including:
hazardous placarding or markings, liquids, powders or dusts, sludges, bright or unusual
colors, drums or commercial size containers, and "chemical" odors. Screening
programs for visual and olfactory characteristics of prohibited wastes are an ongoing
part of the facility operation.
2.3.1 Waste Receiving and Inspection
Vehicles must stop at the scale house located near the entrance of the facility
and visitors are required to sign-in. Waste transportation vehicles are weighed
and the content of the load assessed. The scale attendant(s) requests a waste
description from the vehicle driver to ensure that unacceptable waste is not
allowed into the landfill. The attendant(s) then visually checks the vehicle as it
crosses the scale. Signs informing users of the acceptable and unacceptable
waste types are posted at the scale house or in the vicinity of the entrance to the
site. Once passing the scales, the vehicles containing recyclable materials are
routed to the recovery area and vehicles containing C&D wastes are routed to the
landfill.

Vehicles are randomly selected for screening on a regular basis, depending on
personnel availability. At least one vehicle per week, but not less than 1% by
weight of the waste stream entering the facility (based on the previous week’s
total), will be randomly selected by inspection personnel. A random truck
number and time will be selected (e.g., the tenth load after 10:00 a.m.) on the day
of inspections. However, if something looks suspicious is spotted in any waste
load, that load is inspected further.

Selected vehicles are directed to an area of intermediate cover adjacent to the
working face where the vehicle will be unloaded. Waste is carefully spread using
suitable equipment. An attendant trained to identify wastes that are
unacceptable at the landfill inspects the waste discharged at the screening site.
If unacceptable waste is found, the load will be isolated and secured by flagging,
barrels, cones or flags around the area. All random waste inspections will be
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 15
documented by landfill staff using the waste screening form provided in
Appendix B.

Unacceptable wastes that are nonhazardous will be removed from the C&D area
and removed from the facility. For unacceptable wastes that are hazardous, the
Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan outlined in Section 3.0 will be followed.
Written notification will be provided to DWM within 15 days following the incident.
To determine the liquid content of the waste, a liquid determination will be
performed by the paint filter test (see Appendix C for apparatus and
procedures). The hauler is responsible for removing unacceptable waste from
the landfill property. If no unacceptable waste is found, the load will be pushed
to the working face and incorporated into the daily waste cell.

The removal of solid waste from any landfill unit is prohibited except upon
notification of the DWM (see Section 1.2.3). Regardless, the general public is
prohibited from any waste removal activities from any landfill unit.
2.4 Periodic Cover
Wastes will be covered with a 6 inch layer of earthen material or approved alternate
daily cover (listed below) when the waste disposal area exceeds one-half acre and at
least once weekly. This daily cover is intended to control vectors, fire, odors, and
blowing litter. If the Owner or Operator should desire to use an alternate daily cover, a
formal request will be made to the DWM.
2.4.1 Alternate Daily Covers (ADC)
The site utilizes wood mulch and C&D process fines as ADC. Additional ADC
materials may be utilized in accordance with the Approved Alternate Daily Cover
Materials for use at Sanitary Landfills3 subject to Notification by the Owner.
Other ADC materials, not approved by the above referenced document, may be
used following successful demonstration by the Owner or Operator and approved
by the DWM.
2.4.2 Intermediate Cover
Cover soil should be placed on waste surfaces which will not have additional
wastes placed on them for three months or more, but where final termination of
disposal operations has not occurred. This intermediate cover should be seeded
and graded such that precipitation run-off is channeled to the surface water
systems.

3.0 HAZARDOUS WASTE CONTINGENCY PLAN
In the event that identifiable hazardous waste or waste of questionable character
is detected at the recovery center or landfill, appropriate equipment, protective
equipment, personnel, and materials as necessary will be employed to isolate
the wastes. DWM will be notified immediately (see Section 1.2.3) that an
attempt was made to dispose of hazardous waste at the facility. If the vehicle
attempting disposal of such waste is known, all attempts will be made to prevent
that vehicle from leaving the site or, if the vehicle has left the site, immediate
notice will be served on the owner of the vehicle that hazardous waste, for which
they have responsibility, has been disposed of at the facility.

The facility staff will assist the DWM as necessary and appropriate in the removal
and disposition of the hazardous waste and in the prosecution of responsible
parties. If needed, the hazardous waste will be covered with either on-site soils
or other tarping material until such time when an appropriate method can be
implemented to properly handle the waste. The cost of the removal and
disposing of the hazardous waste will be charged to the owner of the vehicle
involved. Any vehicle owner or operator who knowingly dumps hazardous waste
in the landfill may be barred using the landfill.

Should an incident where hazardous waste is found at the landfill occur, the
event will be documented by landfill staff using the waste screening form
provided in Appendix B.

Records of information gathered as part of the waste screening programs will be
maintained at the landfill site during its active life and as long as required by WI
High Point, LLC and DWM.
3.1 Waste Disposal
3.1.1 Access
Access road location during waste placement will be determined by operations
personnel to reflect waste placement strategy.
3.1.2 General Procedures
Waste transportation vehicles will arrive at the working face at random intervals.
There may be a number of vehicles unloading waste at the same time, while
other vehicles are waiting. To maintain control over the unloading of waste, a
certain number of vehicles will be allowed on the working face at a time. The
actual number will be determined by the truck spotter or equipment operator.
This procedure will be used to minimize the potential of unloading unacceptable
waste and to control disposal activity. Operations at the working face will be
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 17
conducted in a manner which will encourage the efficient movement of
transportation vehicles to and from the working face, and to expedite waste
unloading.

The approach to the working face will be maintained such that two or more
vehicles may safely unload side by side. A vehicle turn-around area large enough
to enable vehicles to arrive and turn around safely with reasonable speed will be
provided adjacent to the unloading area. The vehicles will back to a vacant area
near the working face to unload. Following completion of the unloading
operation, the transportation vehicles will immediately leave the working face
area. Personnel will direct traffic necessary to expedite safe movement of
vehicles.

Waste unloading at the landfill will be controlled to prevent disposal in locations
other than those specified by site management. Such control will also be used to
confine the working face to a minimum width, yet allow safe and efficient
operations. The width and length of the working face will be maintained as small
as practical to maintain the appearance of the site, control windblown waste, and
minimize the amount of cover required each day. Normally, only one working
face will be active on any given day, with deposited waste in other areas covered
by either periodic or final cover, as appropriate.

Solid waste placement and compaction procedures include: vehicle unloading,
waste spreading into adequately sized lifts, and compaction on relatively flat
slopes (i.e. 5H:1V max.), in two-foot intervals, using a minimum number of three
full passes.

The use of portable signs with directional arrows and portable traffic barricades
will facilitate waste unloading to the designated disposal locations. These signs
and barricades will be placed along the access route to the landfill working face
or other designated disposal areas which may be established.
3.1.3 Special Waste Management
3.1.3.1 Asbestos Management
WI High Point, LLC may dispose of regulated asbestos containing
materials (RACM) within the C&D landfill. RACM means:

(a) Friable asbestos material;
(b) Category I nonfriable asbestos-containing material (ACM) that has
become friable;
(c) Category I nonfriable ACM that will be or has been subjected to
sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading; or
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 18
(d) Category II nonfriable ACM that has a high probability of becoming
or has become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by the
forces expected to act on the material in the course of demolition
or renovation operations regulated by this subpart.

Asbestos containing materials are further defined as:
 Category I nonfriable asbestos-containing material (ACM) means
asbestos-containing packings, gaskets, resilient floor covering, and
asphalt roofing products containing more than 1 percent asbestos
as determined using the method specified in appendix E, subpart E,
40 CFR part 763, section 1, Polarized Light Microscopy.
 Category II ACM means any material, excluding Category I
nonfriable ACM, containing more than 1 percent asbestos as
determined using the methods specified in appendix E, subpart E,
40 CFR part 763, section 1, Polarized Light Microscopy that, when
dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand
pressure.
 Nonfriable Asbestos-containing material means any material
containing more than 1 percent asbestos as determined using the
method specified in appendix E, subpart E, 40 CFR part 763, section
1, Polarized Light Microscopy that, when dry, cannot be crumbled,
pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. This material is
non-regulated.

Asbestos will only be accepted if it has been processed and packaged in
accordance with State and Federal (40 CFR 61) regulations. Disposal of
asbestos waste must be in accordance with 15A NCAC 13B .0542(c).
Asbestos will arrive at the site in vehicles that contain only the asbestos
waste and only after advance notification by the generator.

Once the hauler brings the ACM to the landfill, the hauler will be directed
to the designated asbestos disposal area by operations personnel. The
designated disposal area will be prepared by operations personnel by
leveling a small area using a dozer or loader. Prior to disposal, the
landfill operators will stockpile cover soil near the designated asbestos
disposal area. The volume of soil stockpiled will be sufficient to cover the
waste and to provide any berms, etc. to maintain temporary separation
from other landfill traffic.

Once placed in the prepared area, the asbestos waste will be covered with
a minimum of 18 inches of daily cover soil placed in a single lift. The
surface of the cover soil will be compacted and graded using a tracked
dozer or loader. The landfill compactor will be prohibited from operating
over asbestos disposal areas until at least 18 inches of cover are in-place.
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 19

The landfill staff will use the Waste Placement Grid (Figure 4) to record
the approximate location and elevation of the asbestos waste once cover
is in-place. The Landfill Manager or other supervisory staff will review
pertinent disposal and location information to assure compliance with
regulatory requirements and enter the information into the Operating
Record.

Once disposal and recording for asbestos waste is completed, the
disposal area may be covered with waste. No excavation into designated
asbestos disposal areas will be permitted.
3.1.4 Periodic Cover
When the waste disposal area exceeds one-half acre or at the completion of
waste placement each week or sooner, a 6 inch layer of earthen material will be
placed over the exposed waste. This periodic cover is intended to control vectors,
fire, odors, and blowing debris.
3.2 Height Monitoring
The landfill staff will monitor landfill top and side slope elevations. When such
elevations approach the grades shown in the facility Permit Drawings- S3 (Phase 3 -
Final Grading Plan), the final top of waste grades will be staked to limit over placement
of waste.
3.3 Recordkeeping
The facility will maintain an accurate record of the amount of solid waste received at the
landfill. On or before August 1 annually, the operator will submit a facility report to the
DWM and to each county from which waste was received. Minimally, the facility report
will document the waste in tons received on a monthly basis, the waste origin, the waste
type received, the tons diverted, and the tons disposed. A measurement of the volume
utilized in the landfill cells must be performed during the first and second quarter of
each calendar year.

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 20
4.0 RECOVERY AREA OPERATIONS
The facility’s material recovery operation is intended to segregate co-mingled recyclable
and/or reusable materials from the site’s waste stream and temporarily store these
materials within the permitted facility. The material recovery operation will occur within
the reclamation area and recovered materials will be relocated within this area due to
space constraints from time to time. Temporary material storage (prior to the end use)
may be necessary in adjacent areas where waste processing has not yet begun, but still
within the permitted limits of active area. The Asbestos Operations Plan for the
Recycling of C&D Building Materials is included as Appendix D.

In the event a load is tipped on the working face that was intended for the recovery area,
the operator and Waste Industries reserve the right to retrieve recyclable materials
from that load.
4.1 Access
Traffic will be clearly directed to the appropriate processing or recovery area. The
traffic speed on the site should be less than 10 MPH. Rutting of gravel roadway surfaces
must be repaired by the placement of additional gravel on the roadway and not solely by
grading the rut. This will maintain the separator geotextile placed below most gravel
roadway surfaces.
4.2 Recovered Material Management
Only waste loads which are predominantly recyclable materials will be diverted to the
sorting area. Recovered materials that are removed from the waste stream for re-use
on-site (i.e., processed wood waste/mulch, crushed concrete, etc.) will be re-weighed on
the site’s scales prior to being used on-site. Materials that are not recoverable, but
which were received within the sorting area, will be reloaded and hauled to the landfill
for proper disposal.
4.3 General Procedures
The processing and recovery operations will be conducted in accordance with the
approved Operation Plan and conditions of the Solid Waste Permit issued by the DWM.

Refer to Figure 6 for a flowchart outlining overall facility operations.

Facility operations are anticipated as follows:

1. Collection vehicles delivering waste to the facility will enter through the main
entrance on Riverdale Drive;
2. Vehicle will pass over the scales, be weighed, and inspected;
3. Vehicles will be directed to the tipping area or storage area;
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 21
4. Source separated wood pallets and cardboard from non-C&D waste sources
must not be unloaded onto the tipping floor. Wood pallets must be unloaded
onto the sorted clean wood pile or into a container. Cardboard must be
unloaded into a storage container.
5. By-pass materials directed to the storage area will include untreated wood,
brick/block, shingles, metal, and other miscellaneous materials. With the
exception of shingles, by-pass materials will not be subjected to secondary
screening at the tipping floor or the pick line. Shingles will not be processed
until asbestos-free testing verification results are received.
6. Clean wood materials will be sold off-site or stockpiled for on-site wood
grinding. Ground wood will be stockpiled on-site for offsite sales.
7. The attendant will direct vehicles to a designated area of the tipping floor.
8. Once the vehicle is in position, the waste load will be discharged directly onto
the tipping floor. A spotter will inspect the discharged waste. If no
unacceptable materials are identified in the load, the materials will be
processed as recyclable materials.
9. Heavy equipment will load the materials onto the screener where metals, fine
materials, and unacceptable content can be removed. Unacceptable materials
and fines recovered by the screening equipment will be transported to the onsite
landfill. Recovered metals will be sold off-site.
10. Recoverable materials will be conveyed to the pick line. Hand separation of
materials will occur, as needed. Sorted recoverable materials will be
transferred to the storage areas or directly into trailers for off-site sales.
11. Discarded materials will be segregated and stockpiled for re-loading and
hauling to the on-site landfill.
4.4 Shingles Management
WI High Point Landfill, LLC accepts source separated shingles at the recycling facility.
No grinding or physical manipulation of shingles other than sorting and reclaiming
metals from these materials occurs at the facility.

Each transportation vehicle delivering shingles for recycling is weighed and inspected at
the scale house. A secondary screening occurs at the processing area. Vehicles
containing source-separated shingles are directed to the shingles storage area. Testing
for ACM is provided by S.T. Wooten. WI High Point Landfill, LLC does not process any
loads containing shingles until the ACM content is known and verification from S.T.
Wooten is received confirming that the shingles do not contain asbestos. Shingles that
cannot be processed due to possible ACM content are reloaded and transported to the
landfill for disposal.

Tested and asbestos-free shingles delivered to the storage area are reloaded and
transported to the screener and conveyor. Metals and fines are removed from the
shingles as the material is conveyed to the pick line. A water line is available to control
dust and keep the shingles moist, as needed. The shingles are sorted and placed into
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 22
containers or stockpiled for off-site sales. The recovered metal materials are placed
into containers for off-site sales. The fines are reloaded into containers and transported
to the on-site landfill for disposal.

A shingle supplier certification form is included as Appendix E.
4.4.1 Shingle Asbestos Management
WI High Point Landfill, LLC does not process any known or recognized shingles
containing asbestos materials. For unacceptable waste that is discovered, the
Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan outlined in Section 3.0 will be followed.

At least one individual trained in the provisions of the National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) as an Asbestos Abatement
Contractor/Supervisor will be present during facility operating hours. This
individual will receive annual refresher training with respect to Asbestos
Hazardous Emergency Response Act (AHERA). In addition, site employees will
receive annual training on asbestos awareness and the identification of ACMs.
4.4.2 Air Quality
Air quality and dust control for the materials processing operation are controlled
by a water line located near the conveyor system. This water line will be utilized
as needed to adequately dampen the material to control air borne particles.

A water truck will be used to control the generated dust and overall site
appearance.
4.5 Recovered Material Storage
Except for wood, concrete, and inert material, recovered materials must be placed in
containers by the end of each operating day unless covered by a tarp to prevent leaching
by rainfall. Recovered materials placed in containers must be removed from the site
once the container is full.

Non-recoverable materials must be placed in storage containers or in trucks at the end
of each operating day. Windblown materials must be collected at the end of the day and
no material may be allowed to leave the facility boundary. Storage containers containing
non-recoverable materials must be disposed in the on-site landfill at the end of the
operating day.

If unsorted materials remain on the sorting pad at the end of the day, they will be placed
in containers for storage overnight and covered with tarps or placed under the sorting
roof to prevent litter or possible leaching if it rains.

Based on permitted site tonnage, up to 3 site personnel, including equipment operators,
are anticipated for operations within the reclamation area of the site.
4.10 Recordkeeping
The facility will maintain accurate records of daily waste and recovered material
activities. Daily records will document the weight of waste received and recovered and
the origins of the loads. Additionally, the operator will maintain monthly records of the
amount of recovered materials sold or used on-site and the amount of waste
transported for disposal.

On or before August 1 annually, the operator will submit a facility report to the DWM and
to each county from which waste was received. Minimally, the facility report will
document the tons of waste received on a monthly basis, the origin of the waste, the type
of waste received, the tons diverted, and the tons

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
This section reviews the overall environmental management tasks required for the successful
operation of WI High Point LLC.
5.1 Erosion and Sedimentation Control
A separate erosion and sedimentation control plan is provided in the Erosion and
Sedimentation Control Plan (Attachment E) of the Permit Application. This plan
describes the engineered features and practices for preventing erosion and controlling
sedimentation at this site. The erosion and sediment control system consists of the
following major components:

1. Drainage Channels,
2. Diversion Berms (Side Slope Swales and Cap Diversion Berm),
3. Down Pipes, and
4. Sediment Basins/Traps.

The landfill side slopes are designed with 3H:1V slopes and diversion berms placed
along the slope. The berms are designed to keep water volumes and velocities low
enough to minimize erosion of the landfill cover. Maintenance of the cover system will
involve periodic mowing and repair of any erosion problems and bare spots. These
items will be inspected at least once a month and after any significant rainfall events.

The down pipes are designed to carry concentrated flows of surface water off of the
landfill. The down pipes will be inspected at least once a month and after any significant
rainfall event.

Additional erosion control measures have been implemented within the drainage
channels and at points of stormwater discharge. Final cover should be inspected
regularly for erosion damage and promptly repaired.

Stormwater run-off from the C&D landfill is conveyed to sediment basins and traps.
These structures should be inspected regularly for sediment build-up or erosion
damage and should be cleaned out, at a minimum, when sediments fill the lower half of
each structure.
5.1.1 Stormwater Diversion in Constructed Cells
In accordance with 15A NCAC 13B .0542(l) surface water shall be diverted from
the operational area or not be impounded over or in waste and waste shall not be
placed in standing water. Collected stormwater within the cell shall be removed
by pumping low areas.

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 26
Particular care is required to ensure that surface water coming from the active
face, e.g. having potential contact with the waste is allowed to percolate into the
underlying waste. Only run-off from waste surfaces that have received adequate
cover is not considered leachate and should be directed to the stormwater
drainage system, where practical.
5.2 Groundwater Monitoring
A separate water quality management plan has been prepared for the site under a
separate cover (Attachment L). Groundwater monitoring and regulatory reporting will
be completed in accordance with this plan.
5.3 Landfill Gas Control
A landfill gas control and monitoring plan has been prepared for the site and is
presented in Landfill Gas Management Plan (Attachment M). Landfill gas monitoring
and regulatory reporting will be completed in accordance with this plan.
5.4 Litter Control
The vegetative trees/brushes act as a barrier to keep litter contained within the site and
a litter control crew will pick up litter around the site and on access roads routinely as
required.
5.5 Vector Control
Due to the nature of the waste disposed in this landfill, vector control is not expected to
be of concern.
5.6 Odor Control
Due to the nature of the waste disposed in this landfill, odor is not expected to be of
concern.
5.7 Dust Control
Dust related to waste hauler traffic on the access roads will be minimized by using a
water truck to limit dust on the gravel portion of the road. Dust generated by excavation
of cover soil will be limited by watering the cut soil areas if accessible to the water truck.
5.8 Interim Cover
In addition to the occasional placement of the 6 inches of earthen material over the
exposed waste, an additional 12 inches of earthen cover should be placed on waste
surfaces that have not received waste in 30 days but are below final elevation. This
DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

WI High Point C&D Landfill Operations Manual
May 2016 Page 27
intermediate cover should be graded and seeded such that precipitation run-off is
channeled to the stormwater collection system.
5.8.1 Interim Cover Monitoring
Routine inspections of the entire site will include monitoring the interim cover to
ensure the adequacy of the vegetative protective cover and to identify potential
erosion concerns. Corrective actions will be implemented to address identified
areas of concern.

DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

METHOD 9095
PAINT FILTER LIQUIDS TEST
From EPA SW-846

1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION
This method is used to determine the presence of free liquids in a representative sample of
waste and to determine compliance with 40 CFR 264.314 and 265.314.
2.0 METHOD SUMMARY
A predetermined amount of material is placed in a paint
filter. If any portion of the material passes through and
drops from the filter within the 5 minute test period, the
material is deemed to contain free liquids.
3.0 INTERFERENCES
Filter media were observed to separate from the filter
cone on exposure to alkaline materials. This
development causes no problem if the sample is not
disturbed.
4.0 APPARATUS AND MATERIALS
Conical paint filter: Mesh number 60 (fine meshed size).
Available at local paint stores and other retailers.

Glass funnel: If the paint filter, with the waste, cannot
sustain its weight on the ring stand, then a fluted glass
funnel or glass funnel with a mouth large enough to
allow at least 1 inch of the filter mesh to protrude should
be used to support the filter. The funnel is to be fluted or
have a large open mouth to support the paint filter yet
not interfere with the movement, to the graduated cylinder, of the liquid that passes through the
filter mesh.

Ring stand and ring or tripod

Graduated cylinder or beaker: 100-mL
5.0 REAGENTS
None

DocuSign Envelope ID: B2FF3BCF-B5DF-4CA7-826E-6B067EBD5027

6.0 SAMPLE COLLECTION, PRESERVATION AND HANDLING
Samples must be collected according to the directions in Chapter Nine of EPA SW-846.

A 100 mL or 100 g representative sample is required for the test. If it is not possible to obtain a
sample of 100 mL or 100 g that is sufficiently representative of the waste, the analyst may use
larger size samples in multiples of 100 mL or 100 g, i.e., 200, 300, 400 mL or g. However, when
larger samples are used, analysts shall divide the sample into 100-mL or 100-g portions and
test each portion separately. If any portion contains free liquids, the entire sample is
considered to have free liquids.
7.0 PROCEDURE
1. Assemble test apparatus as shown in Figure 1.

2. Place sample in the filter. A funnel may be
used to provide support for the paint filter.

3. Allow sample to drain for 5 minutes into the
graduated cylinder.

4. If any portion of the test material collects in
the graduated cylinder in the 5-min. period,
then the material is deemed to contain free
liquids for purposes of 40 CFR 264.314 and
265.314.
8.0 QUALITY CONTROL
Duplicate samples should be analyzed on a
routine basis.
9.0 METHOD PERFORMANCE
No data provided.
10.0 REFERENCES
None required.

WI High Point C&D Landfill Asbestos Operations Plan for the Recycling of C&D Building Materials
November 2016 Page 1
1.0 OVERVIEW
This plan is written for the recycling/recovery area of the WI High Point Landfill Facility
(Facility), which operates as a construction and demolition debris (C&D) landfill (Permit No. 41-
16) and is owned by WI High Point, LLC (a subsidiary of Waste Industries USA, Inc.). This plan is
an Appendix to the Facility’s Operations Manual and, as such, will reference certain sections of
this Operations Manual.

2.0 DEFINITIONS
As used herein, the following terms are defined:

2.1 Adequately Wet (40 CFR §61.141)
To sufficiently mix or penetrate with water to prevent the release of particulates. If
visible emissions are observed coming from asbestos-containing material, then that
material has not been adequately wetted and represents an EPA NESHAP Violation.

2.2 Asbestos (40 CFR §61.141)
The asbestiform varieties of serpentinite (chrysotile), riebeckite (crocidolite),
cummingtonite-grunerite, anthophyllite, amosite, and actinolite-tremolite.

2.3 Accredited Asbestos Supervisor (AAS)
A person who, at a minimum, has completed a five (5) day asbestos abatement
contractor/supervisor training course as outlined in the EPA’s Asbestos Model
Accreditation Plan (40 CFR §763, Subpart E, App. C (B)(2)). Full accreditation is
required for this position.

2.4 Trained Asbestos Supervisor (TAS)
A person who, at a minimum, has completed a five (5) day asbestos abatement
contractor/supervisor training course as outlined in the EPA’s Asbestos Model
Accreditation Plan (40 CFR §763, Subpart E, App. C (B)(2)). Full accreditation is not
required for this position.

2.5 Asbestos Awareness Trained (AAT)
A person who, at a minimum, has completed a two (2) hour asbestos awareness
training course, as outlined by OSHA (1926.1101). Full accreditation is not required for
this position.

3.0 RECYCLING/RECOVERY AREA ACTIVITIES
Recycling/recovery of asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM) has the potential of
releasing airborne asbestos fibers, leading to human exposure. For this reason, waste
transportation vehicles carrying demolition or construction debris that contain suspected ACBM
are not allowed to unload in the Facility’s recycling/recovery area. By prohibiting this suspect
ACBM from entering the recycling/recovery area, exposure to Facility employees, downstream
recyclers, and the general public can be controlled.

Note that over 3,000 building materials, used now or in the past, contain some form of asbestos.
The below list of potential ACBM (provided by the North Carolina Department of Health and
Human Services) is only provided for example and is in no way intended to be complete:

 insulation on boilers, tanks, steam pipes, water pipes and ducts;
 cement water pipes;
 cementitious siding or roofing shingles;
 ceiling tile (all forms);
 asphalt shingles and asphalt and felt roofing applications;
 wallboard (sheetrock) and mud joint compound;
 sprayed-on or troweled-on surfacing materials on walls or ceilings;
 insulation on/in walls, ceilings, decks, or beams (including vermiculite);
 floor tiles and sheet vinyl floor coverings;
 and many more.

3.1 Recycling/Recovery Area Personnel
 It is required to have at least one (1) Trained Asbestos Supervisor (TAS) at the
Facility during all operating hours.

 All site personnel that work in the recycling/recovery area, or which inspect
loads for the Facility must be Asbestos Awareness Trained (AAT), at a minimum.

3.2 Safety Measures
The posted and/or advertised list or signs of unacceptable items for
recycling/recovery shall include any asbestos or asbestos-containing materials.
Additionally, water from a water truck, or another Facility source, shall be
immediately available to eliminate dust production and migration. Additional safety
measures are discussed in Section 3.4.

3.3 Screening of Waste Transportation Vehicles
As discussed in Section 4.3 of the Facility Operations Manual, all waste transportation
vehicles are inspected after passing over the scales and, subsequently, are directed to
either the Facility landfill disposal area or the recycling/recovery area. This inspection

WI High Point C&D Landfill Asbestos Operations Plan for the Recycling of C&D Building Materials
November 2016 Page 3
shall include an ACBM screening by asbestos trained personnel (either TAS or AAT).
During the ACBM screening process, any loads which include recognizable suspect
ACBM shall not be allowed to enter the recycling/recovery area, but instead, directed to
the C&D landfill for proper disposal. Additional screening in the recycling/recovery area
is discussed in Section 3.4.

3.4 Recycling/Recovery Area ACM Contingency Plan
Further screening of unloaded waste, at the recycling/recovery area, shall be conducted
by trained personnel (AAT) as sorting/processing of recovered materials begins. If
potential ACBM is observed, the following steps shall be followed:

 If the AAT determines that a small incidental amount of suspect asbestos
containing waste is present, the suspect waste must be maintained adequately
wet by AAT personnel and immediately be properly contained and disposed of in
either a designated cell or another location determined by the landfill
operator/manager as discussed in Section 3.1.3.1 of the Facility Operations
Manual.

 If the AAT determines an amount of ACM is greater than an incidental amount or
is in a condition such that an immediate risk of exposure is likely, he shall notify
the TAS. If the TAS agrees with this determination, all work MUST
IMMEDIATELY STOP and the area cleared of all personnel. The TAS shall notify
an AAS (a third party contractor) to provide oversight to any abatement activities,
in accordance with all Federal, State and Local laws, to be performed by a
contractor or sub-contractors. Work may commence at another location
determined by the AAS to be a safe distance away from significant suspect waste
area. Work may continue at this location after the AAS determines that
abatement has occurred and the suspect waste has been properly contained and
disposed of in either a designated cell or another location determined by the
landfill operator/manager as discussed in Section 3.1.3.1 of the Facility
Operations Manual.
