Contact: C. Tyrus Clayton, Jr., PE [e-mail] 7. In the event of an emergency, 911 should be contacted immediately. The 911 operator will dispatch the appropriate emergency personnel based upon the
assessment of need. 8. This facility will be open normally Monday thru Friday from 7am to 5pm. During specific projects, the facility may extend its operating hours later during
the day, or be open on Saturday and/or Sunday. Refer to Item 9 below. 9. The Cieszko LCID Landfill will be for the private use of the Cieszko Construction Company. The site will be secured with a locked gate. Approved LCID waste will be brought through the locked gates to the appropriate disposal
area. Signs will be posted at the entrance to the facility showing the contact name and number and the permit number. Signs are also placed throughout the site giving information regarding allowable waste, procedures for dumping and traffic patterns.
The site is surrounded by a combination of fencing and natural barriers such as ditches and thick vegetation. The fencing and natural barriers should be maintained to discourage unauthorized entry into the site.
Access to the site shall be limited only to operational hours in order to prevent the following:
• Unauthorized and illegal dumping of waste materials
• Trespassing and possible injury resulting from the act
• Vandalism
Facility attendants should be present at all times during operational hours to enforce facility rules and restrict unauthorized access. 10. Access roads are of all-weather construction and will be properly maintained.

11. The Cieszko LCID Landfill will accept only waste as defined in 15A NCAC 13B .0563 (1)(a). No other waste shall be permitted in this area. The list of wastes accepted at the LCID landfill for disposal or processing is as follows: a. Stumps
b. Trees c. Limbs d. Brush or Yard Trash e. Other naturally occurring vegetative material f. Unpainted concrete
g. Unpainted brick h. Unpainted concrete block
Cieszko LCID Landfill-2016 Permit Renewal March 21, 2016 Operation Plan DAA PN# R16104N-01G Page 3 of 9
i. Uncontaminated soil, gravel or rock
j. Asphalt k. Untreated, unpainted wood i. Note that pallets, dimensional lumber, or any wood material that is considered to be construction and demolition debris (as defined
by G.S. 130A-290(a)(44a)) may not be disposed of within the LCID landfill. l. Other wastes as approved by the Division of Waste Management -NCDEQ.
12. The onsite attendant will visually check incoming loads for unauthorized waste and redirect the hauler as appropriate. Hazardous waste and liquids are not accepted. Other unacceptable waste such as waste tires, appliances, construction and demolition debris, and household garbage are acceptable at other locations
within the facility. Any unacceptable material found on the landfill will be removed, appropriately stored as necessary, and delivered to an approved/permitted facility or landfill for that type of waste. Standard procedures for waste handling and hauling, as dictated by state and federal laws, will be followed. Unacceptable wastes will be removed from the facility on a daily basis.
a. Attached is a Waste Screening Form that will be utilized by facility operational staff. 13. The following equipment will be utilized for operation of the LCID Landfill.
This equipment is either currently owned by CIESZKO CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, Inc. or will be leased or contracted for periodic operations. a. Excavator - for general soil or waste excavation
b. Bulldozer – for waste placement, grading, and compaction c. Dump Truck – for material hauling d. Grinder/Screening Equipment – for stored material or existing waste processing (contracted for periodic operation onsite)
14. Waste will not be disposed of in standing water. 15. The LCID will not permit “hot” loads or waste loads smoldering or on fire. In addition, no open burning is allowed at the landfill. For major fires, the primary
fire control policy for the Facility consists of notifying 911, and waiting for their response. A secondary fire control policy consists of utilizing onsite equipment, water, and soils to contain and control small fires if feasible, until the Fire Department can arrive.
If a burning load arrives on the entrance, the load is directed to and dumped on concrete or on an area of bare soil away from flammable materials once the general public has been evacuated from the area. The fire is to be extinguished by smothering with soil or by water pumped from the surrounding ponds. The
landfill facility has an ample supply of stockpiled borrow soils and impounded water within a short distance of all waste disposal areas. In accordance with Rule 15A NCAC 13B.0505(10)(c), fires that occur at the Cieszko LCID Landfill require verbal notice to the Division of Solid Waste
Cieszko LCID Landfill-2016 Permit Renewal March 21, 2016 Operation Plan DAA PN# R16104N-01G Page 4 of 9
within 24 hours and written notification shall be submitted within 15 days.
Written notification will consist of the DWM “Solid Waste Management Facility Fire Occurrence Notification” form (form attached). Verbal and written notification shall be submitted to the Raleigh Regional Waste Management Specialist:
Department of Environmental Quality Division of Waste Management 1646 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1646
[phone] 16. In order to maintain an orderly work area and to minimize erosion, the working face of the LCID will be kept as small as possible with a ½ acre maximum size.
Waste will be compacted as densely as practical. Waste will be deposited in the upper areas first until final grades are reached, thus ensuring that surface runoff is flowing away from the working face. a. Periodic Cover: On a weekly basis, or sooner as needed to maintain a ½
acre working face, a minimum of a 6-inch layer of soil or other material as approved by DWM will be placed over the exposed waste. This cover is intended to control vectors, fire, odors, and blowing debris. b. Intermediate Cover: In areas that have not received waste in the previous
30 days or the exposed waste reaches one acre in size, but are below the final grades of the LCID, shall be covered with a 12-inch layer of soil material. This cover should be graded properly to divert precipitation to the onsite storm water system and seeded/mulched immediately.
c. Final Cover: On or before 120 calendar days, or 30 working days after
completion of any phase of disposal operations, or upon revocation of a permit, the disposal area shall be covered with a minimum of one foot of suitable soil cover sloped to allow surface water runoff in a controlled manner. The soil cover shall be fertilized, limed and seeded. Erosion
control matting shall be applied to assist in achieving stabilization. Further actions in order to correct any condition which is or may become injurious to the public health or a nuisance to the community may be required by NCDEQ.
17. The site will be graded using a bulldozer to ensure that proper drainage of the area is maintained, thus diverting water away from the working face and eliminating any ponding of water on top of the waste. Grades shall be kept to a slope steep enough (suggested minimum of 5%) to encourage quick runoff and to
minimize infiltration. Leachate seeps can occur due to a variety of circumstances. The goal in dealing with leachate seeps is to prevent seepage from leaving the limits of waste disposal areas and to minimize the potential for reoccurrence. If evidence of leachate
seeps is observed, the Operator will take the following actions. Depending on the circumstances, various combinations of actions may be appropriate.
Cieszko LCID Landfill-2016 Permit Renewal March 21, 2016 Operation Plan DAA PN# R16104N-01G Page 5 of 9
a. If leachate is observed outside of the limits of waste disposal areas, notify
NCDEQ. b. Contain the flow of leachate using soil berms and/or excavation. c. Excavate the area of seepage to attempt to allow flow into the underlying layers (i.e. break-up barriers that may be causing the seep.).
d. Run-on Control: Surface water run-on, when identified will be re-routed
through the use of diversion berms and/or diversion ditches to prevent infiltration into the debris facility. e. Surface Grading: Filling operations shall include grading with positive slopes (>5%) to promote runoff over the debris. At the end of each day,
any low areas should be filled with debris and/or soil to prevent potential impounding of surface water. Furthermore, in the case of impending storms, periodic cover should be advanced to provide a “soil seal” to further promote runoff and minimize infiltration.
f. Facility Inspections: On a periodic basis, site personnel should conduct “walk-over” inspections to identify areas of settlement which may create additional areas of “ponding”. Any areas identified should be re-filled with debris and/or soil to further promote runoff. In the event, seeps are identified on the slopes or near the base of the facility, the area above the
seeps shall be inspected for signs of inadequate cover or settlement and re-grading by placement of additional debris and/or soil g. Leachate Diversion Trenches: In the event leachate seeps are identified along the outer slopes of the landfill or at the base, trenches are diverted
back into the limits of waste by excavating trenches at and around the location of the seeps. These trenches are filled with a granular material to encourage the leachate to re-enter the waste containment area. Then the trench and seep area are covered with an impermeable type soil material
(clay, silt, or clay mix) and compacted. h. For contained leachate that will not flow into underlying layers, a pump may be required to route the leachate to an existing leachate collection area (pump station) or to a tanker truck. i. The use of soil (particularly clay) to plug the seepage may also be
successful in the case where flows are minor j. Repair landfill cover as necessary.
18. Adequate erosion and sediment control measures, structures, and devices shall be employed and maintained to prevent silt from leaving the site and to prevent excessive erosion. The facility Erosion and Sediment Control Plan(s) as approved by NCDEQ shall be followed at all times.
19. The concentration of explosive gases, if generated by the facility, will not exceed the following: a. 25% of the lower explosive limit (LEL) for the gases in facility structures b. The LEL for the gases at the property boundary
20. All incoming LCID waste shall go directly to the Landfill or to a recycle stockpile until it can be processed for sale or reuse. There is to be no excessive stockpile of unprocessed material within the processing area. Stockpiled
Cieszko LCID Landfill-2016 Permit Renewal March 21, 2016 Operation Plan DAA PN# R16104N-01G Page 6 of 9
unprocessed Inert Debris and overage is to be covered with 6” of soil at least
every 30 days. 21. The Cieszko LCID facility will engage in material processing from time to time in order to divert and reduce the amount of waste disposed of in the LCID
landfill. The operations of the material processing will be as follows: a. Material determined to be acceptable for processing and diversion from the working face of the landfill or existing waste removed from the landfill shall be stored within the permitted limits of waste for the facility. This will be on the base grades of the cell or on areas of the landfill that
have received final or intermediate cover. b. Materials acceptable for grinding are as follows: i. Woody material ii. Untreated, unpainted, non-engineered wood
iii. Wood pallets c. Materials acceptable for crushing/screening: i. Unpainted concrete block ii. Unpainted brick iii. Unpainted and untreated concrete
iv. Uncontaminated soil, gravel or rock d. All grinding, crushing and/or screening activities will be conducted within the approved landfill footprint. The grinding, crushing, screening and recovery operations will be conducted as needed, on a periodic basis,
to facilitate landfill recovery and incoming waste operations by contracted equipment and operators. The contractor selected will be responsible for maintaining an adequate safety plan and procedures per current standards and the safety and maintenance literature of the equipment manufacturer.
e. Finished products anticipated to be produced from this process are as follows: i. Mulch ii. Amended Soil iii. Crushed aggregate
f. Final products are to be used onsite at the Cieszko Facility for operational uses such as, but not limited to: i. Road bed material ii. Drainage media
iii. Topsoil amendment for seeding and stabilization iv. Daily/Periodic cover of waste areas v. Other uses as permitted by DWM g. Processed materials will be stockpiled for use within the facility boundary in designated areas. A minimum buffer between stockpiles and other
operations will be 20 feet. For safety and fire protection, stockpiles will be monitored for size and temperatures of less than 110 degrees Fahrenheit. h. If the amount of stockpiled material is determined to exceed the quantity
required for onsite operations, the Owner may choose to market the material to residential customers and businesses. The Landfill will keep records of all materials sold and leaving the site.
Cieszko LCID Landfill-2016 Permit Renewal March 21, 2016 Operation Plan DAA PN# R16104N-01G Page 7 of 9
22. Periodically, the Operator will evaluate the overall landfill operations. At a
minimum of twice yearly, an evaluation of the general site conditions will look for problems with routine operations. A site inspection checklist is attached to the end of this document. Any deficiencies can be incorporated into a “punch list” for further action. After evaluation, any deficiencies noted should be
corrected and records kept of the correction. 23. Markers shall be placed to clearly delineate the edge-of-waste around the perimeter of every active, inactive and closed disposal area. All markers must be maintained throughout the life of the landfill and throughout the required period
of post-closure care. In addition, facility staff should be aware of and be able to show Division staff the permitted boundary of the facility. 24. Closure Activities: On or before 120 calendar days after completion of any phase
of disposal operations, or upon revocation of a permit, the disposal area shall be covered with a minimum of one foot of suitable soil cover sloped to allow surface water runoff in a controlled manner. The soil cover shall be fertilized, limed and seeded. Erosion control matting shall be applied to assist in achieving stabilization. Further actions in order to correct any condition which is or may
become injurious to the public health or a nuisance to the community may be required by NCDEQ. 25. Post Closure Activities: Due to the non-putrescible nature of LCID waste, it is anticipated that the post-closure activities for the LCID landfill will not extend beyond cover/site maintenance. Once the LCID landfill is closed, the
site will be stabilized with vegetation. Erosion and sediment control measures will be monitored and maintained throughout the post closure care period. Under post closure care, the Operator shall maintain the closure cap on the LCID landfill as necessary. It is important that the vegetative cover be retained
in a good condition and this task is accomplished through reseeding, fertilizing and mowing. The LCID landfill shall have a soil cap. The grass on the LCID landfill shall be mowed once a year. In addition, the access roads into and on the facility caps, and the stormwater conveyance system shall be maintained in good condition. These facilities shall be inspected periodically
and repaired as necessary. The LCID landfill property will be maintained as open space after completion of closure activities.
Should this location change, the Owner will notify the NCDEQ-DWM of the change.
