(ERM) has been contracted by Green Recycling Solutions, LLC of Jacksonville, North Carolina to perform services to complete a Site Suitability Study for the proposed site in accordance with NCDENR regulations 15A NCAC 13B .0536(a) through (c). Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536(b) SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (b) (b) Scope. The site is the land which is proposed for the landfill facility. The site study presents a characterization of the land, incorporating various investigations and requirements pertinent to suitability of a C&DLF facility. The scope of the site study includes criteria associated with the public health and welfare, and the environment. The economic feasibility of a proposed site is not within the scope of this study. The information in the site study must accurately represent site characteristics and must be prepared by qualified environmental professionals as set forth in Subparagraph (a)(3) of Rule .0202 of this Subchapter. New C&DLF unit(s) and lateral expansions must comply with the siting criteria set forth in Paragraph (c) of this Rule, Subparagraphs (4) through (10). In order to demonstrate compliance with specific criteria for each of the respective location restrictions, documentation or approval by agencies other than the Division of Waste Management, Solid Waste Section may be required. The scope of demonstrations including design and construction performance must be addressed in the site study. Discussion ERM NC, Inc. (ERM) has been contracted by Green Recycling Solutions, LLC of Jacksonville, North Carolina to perform services to complete a Site Suitability Study for the proposed site in accordance with NCDENR regulations 15A NCAC 13B .0536(a) through (c). The Site Study was performed under the supervision of ERM’s David W. Wasiela, P.E., a Professional Engineer registered in North Carolina (Registration #20770), and Thomas M. Wilson, P.G., a licensed Professional Geologist registered in North Carolina (Registration #1113). The results of ERM’s study are presented in this Site Suitability Report. Local and State agencies have provided individual approval for components of this study as needed. Individual approvals are referenced within the study pertaining to the specific regulation requiring such approvals. Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 2 Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(1)(A-I) (c) The site study prepared for a C&DLF facility must include the information required by this Paragraph. (1) Characterization study. The site characterization study area includes the landfill facility and a 2000foot perimeter measured from the proposed boundary of the landfill facility. The study must include an aerial photograph taken within one year of the original submittal date, a report, and a local map. The map and photograph must be at a scale of at least one inch equals 400 feet. The study must identify the following: (A) the entire property proposed for the disposal site and any on-site easements; (B) existing land use and zoning; (C) the location of residential structures and schools; (D) the location of commercial and industrial buildings, and other potential sources of contamination; (E) the location of potable wells and public water supplies; (F) historic sites; (G) state nature and historic preserves; (H) the existing topography and features of the disposal site including: general surface water drainage patterns and watersheds, 100-year floodplains, perennial and intermittent streams, rivers, and lakes; and (I) the classification of the surface water drainage from landfill site in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0300. Discussion The site characterization map, including the proposed landfill facility boundary and a 2,000- foot perimeter study area is presented in Appendix I. Topography on the site ranges from a high elevation of 40.0 MSL to 37.0 MSL based on the most recent Lidar data available from the North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Program updated through 2010. There is no predominant direction of topographic relief; the site is relatively flat. Within the 2,000-ft characterization limits, the following items do not exist: Private residences with water supply wells Water supply intakes Natural surface waters 100-yr Floodplain Commercial or Industrial Buildings Historic sites State Nature or historic preserves The nearest surface water is an unnamed tributary to the White Oak River beyond the limits of this characterization study. In this area, the White Oak River is classified as class “C” Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 3 waters. The definition of a class “C” water provided by NCDENR – Division of Water Quality follows: “Class C Waters protected for uses such as secondary recreation, fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, aquatic life including propagation, survival and maintenance of biological integrity, and agriculture. Secondary recreation includes wading, boating, and other uses involving human body contact with water where such activities take place in an infrequent, unorganized, or incidental manner.” Due to the sandy soil conditions within this area of Jones County, rainfall generated runoff typically infiltrates into the underlying soils within unpaved or built upon areas. In the event that storm water generated from the landfill facility traveled to the White Oak River, the Division of Water Quality does not require special provisions for landfill development for this water quality classification (See Below). Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 4 Current Zoning of the property is I-1 in accordance with the Maysville Zoning Ordinance. a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Construction and Demolition Debris (C&D) Landfill and Recycling Center in 1-1 zoning district as a permitted use under §7.07C of the Maysville Zoning Ordinance was approved on August 4, 2011. A copy of the Conditional Use Approval is included in Appendix IX along with other Local Government approvals. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(2) (2) Proposed Facility Plan. A conceptual plan for the development of the facility including drawings and a report must be prepared which includes the drawings and reports described in Subparagraphs (d)(1), (e)(1), (e)(2), and (e)(3) of Rule .0537 of this Section. Discussion A Facility Plan Report was prepared for the Franchise Agreement with the Town of Maysville and is included in Appendix II. The Facility Plan includes discussions pertaining to the proposed recycling & recovery center that will be permitted separately with the Division of Waste Management. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(3) (3) Site Hydrogeologic Report. The study must be prepared in accordance with the requirements set forth in Paragraph (a) of Rule .0538 of this Section. Discussion A Site Hydrogeologic Study has been completed for the proposed Green Recycling Solutions LLC, C&D Landfill and is included in Appendix III. This study was prepared as a “stand alone” document to document the specific requirements of regulations 15A NCAC 13B .0538(a). Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(4)(A-B) (4) Floodplain Location Restrictions; (A) C&DLF units or constructed embankments used to construct a C&DLF unit must not be located in a 100-year floodplain unless a variance for the facility has been issued in accordance with G.S. 143- 215.54A. (B) C&DLF units must not be located in floodplains unless the owners or operators demonstrate that the unit will not restrict the flow of the flood, reduce the temporary water storage capacity of the floodplain, or result in washout of solid waste so as to pose a hazard to human health and the environment. Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 5 Discussion The 100-yr floodplain does not encroach on any portion of the proposed C&D Landfill facility based on the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map Number 3720542200K, Panel 5422, which is presented in Appendix IV. The closest mapped floodplain area is on the west side of White Oak River Road and has a base flood elevation of 27.0 MSL; nine (9) feet lower than the proposed sites lowest elevation. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(5)(A-H) (5) Wetlands Location Restriction. New C&DLF units and lateral expansions must not be located in wetlands, unless the owner or operator can make the following demonstrations to the Division: (A) Where applicable under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act or applicable State wetlands laws, the presumption that a practicable alternative to the proposed landfill facility is available which does not involve wetlands is clearly rebutted. (B) The construction and operation of the C&DLF unit(s) will not cause or contribute to violations of any applicable State water quality standards and will not violate any applicable toxic effluent standard or prohibition under Section 307 of the Clean Water Act. (C) The construction and operation of the C&DLF unit(s) will not jeopardize the continued existence of endangered or threatened species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of a critical habitat, protected under the Federal Endangered Species Act of 1973. The construction and operation of the C&DLF unit(s) will not violate any requirement under the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act of 1972 for the protection of a marine sanctuary. (D) The construction and operation of the C&DLF unit(s) will not cause or contribute to significant degradation of wetlands. (E) The owner or operator must demonstrate the integrity of the C&DLF unit(s) and its ability to protect ecological resources by addressing the following factors: (1) erosion, stability, and migration potential of native wetland soils, muds and deposits used to support the C&DLF unit; (2) erosion, stability, and migration potential of dredged and fill materials used to support the C&DLF unit; the volume and chemical nature of the waste managed in the C&DLF unit; (3) impacts on fish, wildlife, and other aquatic resources and their habitat from release of the solid waste; (4) the potential effects of catastrophic release of waste to the wetland and the resulting impacts on the environment; and (5) any additional factors, as necessary, to demonstrate that ecological resources in the wetland are sufficiently protected to the extent required under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act or applicable State wetlands laws. (F) The owner or operator must demonstrate that steps have been taken to attempt to achieve no net loss of wetlands (as defined by acreage and function) by first avoiding impacts to wetlands to the maximum extent practicable as required by Part (c)(5)(A) – (D) of this Rule, then minimizing unavoidable impacts to the maximum extent practicable, and finally offsetting remaining unavoidable wetland impacts through all appropriate and practicable compensatory mitigation actions (e.g., restoration of existing degraded wetlands or creation of man-made wetlands). (G) The owner or operator must also demonstrate that sufficient information is available to make a reasonable determination with respect to each of the demonstrations required by this Rule. (H) For purposes of this Rule, wetlands means those areas that are defined in 40 CFR 232.2(r). Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 6 DiscussionA comprehensive wetlands delineation was performed for the Green Co Land, LLC property including the proposed C&D Landfill facility limits. The delineation was performed by Mr. Haywood Pittman of Pittman Soil Consulting in Richlands, North Carolina. Following original identification and field designation/flagging of wetland areas, Mr. Pittman met with Army Corp of Engineers (ACOE) Representatives on site to review the results of the delineation. Following approval of the field delineation by ACOE, surveying of the limits of wetland areas identified in the field was surveyed by Parker & Associates, Inc. of Jacksonville, North Carolina. A surveyed sealed plat was prepared and submitted to the ACOE by Parker & Associates, Inc. for final approval. ACOE signed the surveyed plat for wetland delineation on November 30, 2011. A copy of the final wetlands survey plat signed by ACOE is included in Appendix V. The surveyed wetland limits have been incorporated into proposed Facility Plans for the proposed C&D Landfill facility. A copy of the Facility Plan submitted with the Town of Maysville Franchise Agreement including these wetland limits is included in Appendix V. As shown on the Facility Plan, development of the proposed C&D Landfill will not impact any of the areas designated as wetlands by ACOE. The proposed limits of landfill have been defined on the facility plan to maintain a 50-ft buffer between proposed landfill and wetland areas. Maintaining a buffer between the landfill units and wetland areas allows for installation of appropriate erosion and sedimentation control devices to restrict the transport of sediments into wetland areas. Such devices will be incorporated into the erosion and sedimentation control plan during the design permitting phase of the project for approval by NCDENR – Division of Land Quality. The proposed final slopes for the C&D Landfill will be 4H:1V to allow for ample slope stability during operation and following closure to avoid a catastrophic release of waste into wetlands. The proposed C&D Landfill will be constructed with a base liner system and storm water control measures designed for the 25-year, 24-hour storm event to further protect impacts to surrounding wetland areas. This C&D Landfill will be unique since all waste received will be processed at the neighboring proposed C&D recycling and recovery center. The processing of the waste will allow for inspection of all incoming waste to the facility and only acceptable C&D waste as defined under NCDENR regulation that is not deemed a recyclable or recoverable material will be directed to the landfill for disposal. Unacceptable waste by C&D waste definition will be identified and removed during the processing. The coupling of these two facilities allows for an additional level of environmental protection. Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 7 In summary, development of the proposed facility has been designed to avoid all wetland impacts identified within the facility limits. Further measures will be incorporated into the final design of the landfill facility to avoid impacts due to storm water runoff, sediment transport or catastrophic release of waste into wetlands. Protection of endangered or threatened species and their habitats is addressed later in this study (Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(10) and Appendix VIII). Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(6)(A-C) (6) Unstable Area Location Restrictions. Owners and operators of new C&DLF unit(s) and lateral expansions proposed for location in an unstable area must demonstrate that engineering measures have been incorporated in the C&DLF unit's design to ensure that the integrity of any structural components of the C&DLF unit will not be disrupted. The owner and operator must consider the following factors, at a minimum, when determining whether an area is unstable: (A) On-site or local soil conditions that may result in significant differential settling; (B) On-site or local geologic or geomorphologic features; and (C) On-site or local human-made features or events (both surface and subsurface). Discussion No unstable areas have been identified within the proposed landfill limits during this site study and site hydrogelogic investigation. Some “low blow count” soils were identified during the installation of soil test borings at depths well below ground surface that will be evaluated further during the design permitting phase for this project. In all cases these materials are below the ground water table and may be accounted for by predicting long term settlement and increasing the slope of landfill floor elevations. Unstable areas may exist within the delineated wetland limits. These areas are not included within proposed C&D Landfill units or ancillary development. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(7) (7) Cultural Resources Location Restrictions. A new C&DLF unit or lateral expansion must not damage or destroy a property of archaeological or historical significance which has been listed or determined eligible for a listing in the National Register of Historic Places. To aid in making a determination as to whether the property is of archeological or historical significance, the State's Historic Preservation Office in the Department of Cultural Resources may request the owner and operator to perform a site-specific survey which must be included in the Site Study. Discussion ERM submitted a letter and site plan to Ms. Renee Gledhill-Earley of the State of North Carolina Deputy State Historic Preservation Office to request information concerning the probability of significant sites on March 24, 2011 (a copy of the letter is included in Appendix Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 8 VI). Ms. Gledhill-Earley responded via letter dated April 11, 2011 that her office reviewed the project and “are aware of no historic resources which would be affected by the project. Therefore we have no comment on the project as proposed.” A copy of Ms. Gledhill-Earley’s letter is included in Appendix VI. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(8) (8) State Nature and Historic Preserve Location Restrictions. A new C&DLF unit or lateral expansion must not have an adverse impact, considering the purposes for designation of the Preserve lands and the location, access, size and operation of the landfill, on any lands included in the State Nature and Historic Preserve. Discussion ERM submitted a letter and site plan to Ms. Renee Gledhill-Earley of the State of North Carolina Deputy State Historic Preservation Office to request information concerning the probability of significant sites on March 24, 2011 (a copy of the letter is included in Appendix VI). Ms. Gledhill-Earley responded via letter dated April 11, 2011 that her office reviewed the project and “are aware of no historic resources which would be affected by the project. Therefore we have no comment on the project as proposed.” A copy of Ms. Gledhill-Earley’s letter is included in Appendix VI. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(9)(A-B) (9) Water Supply Watersheds Location Restrictions; (A) A new C&DLF unit or lateral expansion must not be located in the critical area of a water supply watershed, or in the watershed for a stream segment classified as WS-I, or in watersheds of other water bodies which indicate that no new landfills are allowed in accordance with the rules codified at 15A NCAC 02B Section .0200 entitled "Classifications and Water Quality Standards Applicable To Surface Waters Of North Carolina." (B) Any new C&DLF unit or lateral expansion, which proposes to discharge leachate to surface waters and must obtain a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit from the Division of Environmental Management pursuant to Section 402 of the United States Clean Water Act, must not be located within watersheds classified as WS-II or WS-III, or in watersheds of other water bodies which indicate that no new discharging landfills are allowed, in accordance with the rules codified at 15A NCAC 02B Section .0200. Discussion This item was previously discussed in the Site Characterization discussion for Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(1)(A-I) and is repeated below. Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 9 The nearest surface water is an unnamed tributary to the White Oak River beyond the limits of this characterization study. In this area, the White Oak River is classified as class “C” waters. The definition of a class “C” water provided by NCDENR – Division of Water Quality follows: “Class C Waters protected for uses such as secondary recreation, fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, aquatic life including propagation, survival and maintenance of biological integrity, and agriculture. Secondary recreation includes wading, boating, and other uses involving human body contact with water where such activities take place in an infrequent, unorganized, or incidental manner.” Due to the sandy soil conditions within this area of Jones County, rainfall generated runoff typically infiltrates into the underlying soils within unpaved or built upon areas. In the event that storm water generated from the landfill facility traveled to the White Oak River, the Division of Water Quality does not require special provisions for landfill development for this water quality classification (See Below). Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 10 At the time of this study, it has not been determined if the site will contain a discharge. The Facility Plan submitted with the Franchise Agreement has set aside an area that may include temporary storage tanks for pumping and hauling of leachate if needed. A final determination will be made during the design permitting portion for this project. Additionally we have included the Environmental Sensitive Areas Map for Jones County made available by the NCDENR – Division of Water Quality in Appendix VII. There are no “environmentally sensitive areas” noted within the immediate vicinity of the proposed site. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(10) (10) Endangered and Threatened Species Location Restrictions. A new C&DLF unit or lateral expansion must not jeopardize the continued existence of endangered or threatened species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of a critical habitat, protected under the Federal Endangered Species Act of 1973. Discussion ERM submitted a letter and site plan to Mr. Pete Benjamin of the US Fish & Wildlife Service, Raleigh Ecological Services Field Office to request information concerning the probability of endangered or threatened species that may be impacted by the proposed project on March 24, 2011 (a copy of the letter is included in Appendix VIII). Mr. Benjamin responded to ERM on April 12, 2011 via a letter stating “Based on the information provided and other information available, it appears that the proposed action is not likely to adversely affect any federally-listed endangered or threatened species, their formally designated critical habitat, or species currently proposed for listing under the Act at these sites.” A copy of Mr. Benjamin’s letter is included in Appendix VIII. Mr. Benjamin did note in his letter that his office is concerned about aquatic resources susceptible to sedimentation. The design will include appropriate erosion and sedimentation control devices for permitting purposes and development is not located in the immediate vicinity of surface water bodies. Regulation 15A NCAC 13B .0536 SITE STUDY FOR C&DLF FACILITIES (c)(11)(A-E) (11) Local government approvals for C&DLFs. (A) If the permit applicant is a unit of local government in which jurisdiction the proposed C&DLF site is located, the approval of the governing board shall be required. Approval may be in the form of either a resolution or a vote on a motion. A copy of the resolution or the minutes of the meeting where the vote was taken must be submitted to the Division as part of the site study. (B) A permit applicant other than the unit of local government with jurisdiction over the proposed landfill site must obtain a franchise in accordance with G.S 130A-294(b1)(3) from each unit of local government in whose jurisdiction the site is located. A copy of the franchise must be submitted to the Division as part of the site study. (C) Prior to issuance of approval or a franchise, the jurisdictional local government(s) where the landfill is to be located shall hold at least one public meeting to inform the community of the proposed waste Site Suitability Report December 16, 2011 Green Recycling Solutions LLC Maysville, North Carolina 11 management activities as described in the proposed facility plan prepared in accordance with Subparagraph (2) of this Paragraph.

Appendix II Facility Plan Report This Facility Plan Report was submitted to the Town of Maysville for Franchise Agreement Approval. 1 CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION DEBRISRECYCLING AND LANDFILL FACILITY PLAN Prepared for: Division of Solid Waste, NC Dept. of Environment and Natural Resources Town of Maysville Prepared by: ERM NC, Inc. 8000 Corporate Center Drive Suite 200 Charlotte, North Carolina 28226 On behalf of: Green Recycling Solutions, LLC Maysville, North Carolina Regulatory Authorities: North Carolina General Statutes – G.S. 130-294 NCDENR Division of Waste Management Rules 15ANCAC 13B .0536 & .0537 Maysville Franchise Ordinance for Construction Debris Landfills May 27, 2011 2 I.IntroductionGreen Recycling Solutions, LLC (“Green Recycling”) proposes to construct andoperate a construction and demolition debris recycling and disposal facility on a58 acre site, on Highway 17 near White Oak River Road, in Jones County. GreenRecycling is petitioning to have the property annexed into the Town ofMaysville, and has applied for the requisite conditional use permit and franchise from Maysville. The site location is shown on the property annexation boundary survey prepared by Parker & Associates, Inc. and attached with this report. The facility would receive waste from within the limits of Jones County and surrounding counties including Craven, Carteret, Onslow, Duplin and Lenoir. Only waste that is initially received and processed at the recycling center will be disposed of in the proposed C&D Landfill. Per the requirements of 15 NCAC 13B.0537 and Maysville’s Franchise Ordinance for Construction Debris Landfills, this Facility Plan focuses on the proposed landfill. II.Facility Drawings ( Rule 13B .0537(d)(1)(A-F)) A site plan prepared by ERM NC, Inc. is attached with this report in accordance with NCDENR – Division of Waste Management Rule 15A NCAC .0537(d)(1)(A- F). In accordance with rule requirements, that site plan illustrates aerial limits of landfill units and buffer requirements. The site plan includes limits of grading and proposed borrow areas located on-site. As required, the site plan illustrates the proposed final contours at 2-ft intervals reaching a maximum elevation of 88.0 feet above mean seal level utilizing 4H:1V slopes during landfilling operations. The site plan was developed utilizing topographic data supplied by the North Carolina Flood Plain Mapping Program (2005) and available for public use. The property annexation boundary survey shown on the site plan was performed by Parker & Associates, Inc. A copy of the sealed survey and legal description is attached for reference. The site plan also includes locations for the proposed recycling facility and site access to US Highway 17. A potential leachate storage area is shown adjacent to the proposed C&D Landfill if deemed necessary during the permitting process. Scales and scale house are shown at the recycling center. Asshownonthesiteplan,therearesix,5-year phases of development and use of the landfill, for a total operational life of 30 years. 3 Floodplains do not encroach on lands within the proposed site propertyboundary according to the FEMA NC FIRM Panel 5422 dated November 3, 2005.Cultural resources will not be impacted by development of the C&D Landfill asconfirmed by NC Department of Cultural Resources letter dated April 11, 2011(copy attached). Wetlands located on site will not be impacted by development of the proposed C&D landfill. A wetland delineation was performed by Pittman Soil Consulting, confirmed by United States Army Corp of Engineers and surveyed by Parker & Associates, Inc. as shown on the Facility Plan. Additionally, US Fish & Wildlife confirmed that project development will not impact endangered or threatened species or their habitat (letter dated April 12, 2011 – attached). III.Facility Report (Rule 13B .0537(e)(1)(A-E)) The proposed C&D Landfill will receive waste as defined by North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), Division of Waste Management as Construction & Demolition Debris, Yard Waste and Land Clearing & Inert Debris only. All waste received at the facility will first be processed at the recycling center where it will be determined if it can be recycled. Waste will be thoroughly inspected by processing through a tipping floor and sorting lines at the recycling center. This will greatly reduce the potential for unacceptable waste to reach the landfill. (The desired recycling recovery rates are discussed below.) Any acceptable waste that is not recycled will be transported from the recycling center to for deposit in the landfill. Unacceptable waste, i.e., any waste the facility is not permitted to accept, will be identified at the recycling center and either returned to the hauler delivering the waste or transported to and disposed of at a permitted facility followed by invoicing the hauler for permitted disposal. The facility will serve the population, businesses, municipalities and industry within the counties of Jones, Craven, Carteret, Onslow, Duplin and Lenoir. The C&D Landfill will be operated utilizing a bulldozer for spreading waste in manageable lifts and equipment for deliveringcoversoils;eitherapanexcavator or combination of trackhoe and dump truck. If permitted by NCDENR, the C&D 4 Landfill will utilize a tarp system to reduce the amount of cover soils placed inthe landfill.IV.Facility Report – Landfill Capacity (Rule 13B .0537(e)(2)(A-B))As noted, the proposed C&D Landfill is anticipated to have an operational life of30 years operating 6, 5-year phases. A “Preliminary Facility Capacity & Assumptions” is attached with this report for reference. As illustrated in this attachment, the anticipated annual waste stream arriving at the facility is 300 tons per day and reaches a maximum of 575 tons per day for years 24 through 30. As the facility begins operation an anticipated recycling/recovery rate of 63% is utilized based on facility start up. The recycling rate steadily increases to a maximum of 87% of waste received at year 9 and continues through year 30. Therefore, as the waste received increases the efficiency of recycling and recovering materials increases. This study is based on results seen at similar facilities in operation in Florida utilizing the same equipment and recycling facility plan. (The anticipated waste received at the facility is based upon current disposal rates of C&D waste by the larger construction and contracting companies in the proposed service area.) Based on the results of our analysis, the maximum waste anticipated to be received at the C&D landfill will be 31,635 tons per year. With an operating year consisting of 285 days, this tonnage equates to an average of 111 tons per day. The proposed waste stream is anticipated to be less in the years following initial start-up of the recycling facility. Refer to the “Preliminary Facility Capacity & Assumptions” attachment for detailed information concerning anticipated waste stream. The proposed C&D landfill as shown on the site plan has a gross capacity of 831,516 cubic yards. Given the recycling component of the operation, waste material delivered to the landfill will lack heavier constituents such as metals, concrete and wood. As a result, the density of waste will be less than typically seen at C&D landfills. Therefore, we have assumed an in place waste density for this facility of approximately 0.5 tons per cubic yard. This rate also includes the use of soil cover during operations at a rate of 7.9 percent. Based on our study included in the “Preliminary Facility Capacity & Assumptions”, the landfill will require 318,614 cubic yards of clean fill soils to provide for construction of landfill Phases, cover soils and final cover soil. Construction of the C&D landfill will require 58,806 cubic yards of low 5 permeable soil for permitting requirements concerning a base liner system.These soils are present on site within the proposed landfill footprint based onpreliminary test pits performed under the supervision of Pittman Soil Scientists(copy attached). Depth to ground water is included in the test pit logs andindicate that a 4-ft vertical separation from groundwater and minimum postsettlement landfill floor grade of 2 percent may be achieved with minimal sitegrading. Borrow soils are available from on-site and adjacent properties owned by Green Co Land, LLC. Additionally, non-select cover soil will be available to the C&D landfill from the recycling facility process. V.Facility Report – Special Engineering Features (Rule .0537(e)(3)(A-D)) The site plan includes an area designated for leachate storage tanks that would utilize a pump and haul operation for delivery to a permitted waste water treatment plant. This area is shown as “potential” on the site plan, and will be dependent upon final design and the State permitting process. By design, the facility will minimize leachate generation by constructing small Cells within each Phase that shall be approximately one acre in size. Each Phase will contain three of these Cells. Once a new Cell is constructed, approximately every 18 months, the first waste lift may be quickly placed across the Cell floor and above the surrounding 6-ft perimeter berm height to promote runoff and reduce leachate generation. There will be a low permeable barrier across the floor of the proposed C&D landfill. According to the attached test pit reports performed by Pittman Soil Scientists, low permeable soils are in place within the footprint of the proposed landfill (Raines) and could be left in place or reworked to provide a low permeable barrier. These soils will require additional laboratory testing during the permitting process to verify adequacy. Based on the outcome of these studies, an alternative base liner equivalent may be selected if necessary. The recycling center is a special engineering feature. By virtue of that center, the process of waste presentation and inspection at that center as described above, unacceptable waste may be more readily identified, minimizing the chances of it being deposited in the landfill. Once the landfill operating capacity is reached, a low permeable cap will be installed across the entire waste disposal limits. The cap will be designed to meet 6 or exceed the minimum requirements per NCDENR regulations at the time ofpermitting the landfill. For the purpose of this report, a landfill cap including a40-mil linear low density polyethylene liner is proposed. Timing of capinstallation will be determined during the permitting process.The C&D landfill facility will include ground water and landfill gas monitoringwell networks to meet or exceed the NCDENR regulations at the time of permitting. The number of wells and depths of wells will be determined based on the design hydrogeologic study performed during permitting. Typical operations of the C&D Landfill will include the following (all items will need approval from NCDENR following review of an operations plan): Acceptance of waste solely from the Green Recycling Solutions, LLC recycling facility where waste is weighed and recorded at facility’s scales. Equipment operators will direct hauler where to place load within the operational landfill Cell. The delivered waste will be spread evenly in lifts not to exceed 8 feet in vertical height and visually inspected by the equipment operator for unacceptable waste. Waste shall be covered with a minimum six-inch thick soil layer weekly at a minimum frequency provided the working face does not exceed 1/3 of an acre requiring cover placement sooner. A tarp system may be considered on a routine basis to reduce the amount of cover soils placed in the landfill.

Box 33726 Raleigh NC 27636-3726 Mr. Pete Benjamin Subject: Proposed C&D Recycling Center & Landfill Site Preliminary Studies US Hwy 17, Jones County, North Carolina Dear Mr. Benjamin: In accordance with NCDENR, Division of Waste Management Rule NCAC 13B .0536 (c)(10), a new Construction & Demolition Debris (C&D) Landfill must not jeopardize the continued existence of endangered or threatened species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of a critical habitat protected under the Federal Endangered Species Act of 1973. We have begun preliminary siting studies for a proposed C&D Recycling Facility and Landfill in Jones County, North Carolina located between US Highway 17 and White Oak River Road approximately 1 mile north of Maysville. This property is currently in the process to be annexed into the Maysville jurisdictional limits. A site location plan identifying the two land parcels along with proposed areas of land development activities is attached for reference. We are requesting correspondence from your office to confirm the probable absence of threatened or endangered species, habitats that would be impacted or specific needs for further investigations based on identifiable species or habitats within the project site area.

Thank you in advance for your time and I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, David W. Wasiela, P.E. Senior Project Engineer Cc: Mr. James Maides – Green Recycling, LLC Attch: Site Location Plan Preliminary Site Reconnaissance Preliminary Site Reconnaissance – Proposed Maysville, NC Site Endangered and Threatened Species Based on a review of the current listings of Endangered and Threatened Species for Jones County, North Carolina (copy attached), two species of concern beyond the Bald Eagle exist within the County; the Red-cockaded woodpecker and American alligator. Based on our reconnaissance while at the proposed Maysville site the following is noted: Bald Eagle The Bald Eagle was not physically observed during our previous site visits. The site is not located near a large body of water (river, lake or tidal area) that typically supports Bald Eagle habitat. American Alligator The proposed Maysville site does not contain supporting habitat; primarily ponds, lakes, swamps, etc. to support the American alligator. Red-Cockaded Woodpecker The red-cockaded woodpecker was not observed during our previous site visits. Current site conditions contain young growth pines along with young growth hardwoods (appears to have been timbered within the last 10 years) lacking the large old pines typically needed to support the red- cockaded woodpecker habitat. The site is bordered to the north by a large tract of Weyerhauser property that may contain more suitable habitat. The following is taken from the “Recovery Plan for the Red-Cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis), Second Revision, Approved April 11, 1985, US Fish & Wildlife Service”: HABITAT REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITING FACTORS Red-cockaded woodpeckers require open pine woodlands and savannahs with large old pines for nesting and roosting habitat (clusters). Large old pines are required as cavity trees because the cavities are excavated completely within inactive heartwood, so that the cavity interior remains free from resin that can entrap the birds. Also, old pines are preferred as cavity trees, because of the higher incidence of the heartwood decay that greatly facilitates cavity excavation. Cavity trees must be in open stands with little or no hardwood midstory and few or no overstory hardwoods. Hardwood encroachment resulting from fire suppression is a well-known cause of cluster abandonment. Redcockaded woodpeckers also require abundant foraging habitat. Suitable foraging habitat consists of mature pines with an open canopy, low densities of small pines, little or no hardwood or pine midstory, few or no overstory hardwoods, and abundant native bunchgrass and forb groundcovers.

A taxon under consideration for official listing for which there is sufficient information to support listing. (Formerly "C1" candidate species.) BGPA =Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. See below. FSC = federal species of concern. A species under consideration for listing, for which there is insufficient information to support listing at this time. These species may or may not be listed in the future, and many of these species were formerly recognized as "C2" candidate species. T(S/A) = threatened due to similarity of appearance. A taxon that is threatened due to similarity of appearance with another listed species and is listed for its protection. Taxa listed as T(S/A) are not biologically endangered or threatened and are not subject to Section 7 consultation. See below. EXP = experimental population. A taxon listed as experimental (either essential or nonessential). Experimental, nonessential populations of endangered species (e.g., red wolf) are treated as threatened species on public land, for consultation purposes, and as species proposed for listing on private land. P = proposed. Taxa proposed for official listing as endangered or threatened will be noted as "PE" or "PT", respectively. Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA): In the July 9, 2007 Federal Register( 72:37346-37372), the bald eagle was declared recovered, and removed (de-listed) from the Federal List of Threatened and Endangered wildlife. This delisting took effect August 8,2007. After delisting, the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (Eagle Act) (16 U.S.C. 668-668d) becomes the primary law protecting bald eagles. The Eagle Act prohibits take of bald and golden eagles and provides a statutory definition of "take" that includes "disturb". The USFWS has developed National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines to provide guidance to land managers, landowners, and others as to how to avoid disturbing bald eagles. For mor information, visit http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/baldeagle.htm Threatened due to similarity of appearance(T(S/A)): In the November 4, 1997 Federal Register (55822-55825), the northern population of the bog turtle (from New York south to Maryland) was listed as T (threatened), and the southern population (from Virginia south to Georgia) was listed as T(S/A) (threatened due to similarity of appearance). The T(S/A) designation bans the collection and interstate and international commercial trade of bog turtles from the southern population. The T(S/A) designation has no effect on land management activities by private landowners in North Carolina, part of the southern population of the species. In addition to its official status as T(S/A), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service considers the southern population of the bog turtle as a Federal species of concern due to habitat loss. Definitions of Record Status: Current - the species has been observed in the county within the last 50 years. Historic - the species was last observed in the county more than 50 years ago. Obscure - the date and/or location of observation is uncertain. Incidental/migrant - the species was observed outside of its normal range or habitat. Probable/potential - the species is considered likely to occur in this county based on the proximity of known records (in adjacent counties), the presence of potentially suitable habitat, or both.

PUBLIC HEARING ON ANNEXATION PETITION BY WOODROW AND JOYCE LASSITER, I-1 INDUSTRIAL ZONING APPLICATION BY JAMES E MAIDES AND GREEN RECYCLING SOLUTIONS LLC’S FRANCHISE ORDINANCE Commissioner Flowers recused himself from all discussion on the annexation petition, zone ordinance and franchise ordinance. Mr. James Maides addressed the Board concerning the operation of a construction and demolition debris recycling and landfill facility known as Green Recycling Solutions, LLC. Town Planner Bob Clark and retired Planning Board Chairman Wayne Sayland 3 presented the report and recommendations of the Planning Board. In consideringannexation, the Board saw that the location is remote from the town itself, and that any future annexation connected to the location would have to go through the petition process. The area was not zoned so a public meeting of the Planning Board was held on June 27, 2011. The Planning Board had to consider the potential uses for the area if it became zoned. They also had to consider what is in the area. This area is a remote location surrounded by woodland and forest with only a small portion being connected to Highway 17 and some homes. The traffic impact was another consideration. The Planning Board found the traffic situation consistent with local plans. The Planning Board voted to recommend approval of the conditional use permit, subject to the property being annexed, zoned I-1 Industrial District, and with conditions with a vote of 3-0 with one member abstaining. (The report outlining the Planning Board recommendations and conditions is attached.) Commissioner Baker made a motion to exit the public hearing with Commissioner Brown seconding. Motion carried unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. The regular meeting resumed at 7:29 p.m. Commissioner Ryan made a motion to adopt an ordinance to extend the corporate limits of the Town of Maysville, North Carolina. Commissioner Baker seconded the motion and motion carried unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. (Copy of Ordinance No. 2011-003 is attached hereto.) Commissioner Ryan made a motion to adopt an ordinance to amend the official zoning map of the Town of Maysville to apply I-1 industrial zoning to 58.2+- acres of annexed property located on the west side of U.S. Highway 17, approximately 1.4 miles north of Old White Oak River Road with Commissioner Baker seconding. Motion carried unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. (Copy of Ordinance No. 2011-004 is attached hereto.) Commissioner Ryan made a motion to leave the regular Board session to go into a Quasi-Judicial Hearing on James E. Maides conditional use permit application with Commissioner Baker seconding. Motion carried unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. The meeting moved into the Quasi-Judicial Hearing at 7:31 p.m. QUASI-JUDICIAL HEARING ON JAMES E MAIDES CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT APPLICATION Town Attorney Beth Faleris explained to the Board that the Quasi-Judicial hearing on the conditional use permit would have those witnesses providing information on the business in question sworn in as in a court of law. In the absence of a Zoning Board of Adjustment, the Board of Commissioners would serve as “Judge” over the proceedings. 4 The Attorney for James E Maides/Green Recycling Solutions LLC was Mr. Keith Johnson, who directed questions to the witnesses. Witnesses sworn in were John Parker of Parker and Associates of Jacksonville, NC, an engineering and consulting firm; Dave Wasella, a registered professional engineer from Charlotte, NC who will be the Sr. engineer for the recycling center and Richard Howard of Metal Tech Systems, a designer of solid waste recycling center facilities. The witnesses gave the definition and workings of a C&D Landfill and Recycling Center. C&D stands for construction and demolition and deals only with that waste that is connected to the construction and/or demolition of a structure. No household waste will be taken into the facility. It would include vegetative yard debris. All waste will be delivered to the recycling center first. There the waste will be spread and inspected to identify and take out inappropriate waste to be delivered to the correct facility. The screening device is semi-automatic and the recovery rate for recycled materials is from 60-93%. There are very few of these unique facilities where landfill and recycling are performed at the same location within the state of North Carolina. Those existing facilities include Raleigh, Concord and Winston-Salem. These landfills serve as waste reduction projects. The facilities do not impact wetlands, endangered species or historical areas. The landfill will be at least four feet above the water table. Layered waste ten to twelve feet high would be covered with soil. Rain water is collected and tested to determine if treatment is necessary. A two hundred feet undisturbed buffer will be developed. No clear cutting of the area surrounding the facility will be done. Upon performing traffic analysis and review, it was determined that no further improvements should be made other than the proposed turn lanes on Highway 17 from either direction. The noise from the equipment meets OSHA regulations, although a noise decibel level could not be given. There have been no major catastrophes from the operations of these facilities. Evidence presented during these proceedings included Exhibit #1: the Site Map: showing the feet above sea level, that existing surrounding trees are above the proposed height and that the distance from the facility to the nearest home is 1,777 feet; Exhibit #2: a digital map showing the dimensions of the facility and location of the wooded area showing vegetation that will serve as a buffer; Exhibit #3: a Traffic Analysis and Review conducted by Ramey Kemp & Associates and Exhibit #4, the franchise agreement. Mr. Johnson made a motion to have the Board accept Exhibits 1- 4. Commissioner Ryan made a motion to accept Exhibits 1-4 with Commissioner Baker seconding. Motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. After the evidence was presented, Commissioner Ryan made a motion to close the evidentiary phase of the hearing with Commissioner Brown seconding. Motion carried unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. Ms. Faleris explained the state requirements considering the general findings for conditional use. 5 #1. Commissioner Ryan made a motion to find that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety, if located where proposed and developed according to the plan submitted and approved. Commissioner Brown seconded and the motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. #2. Commissioner Ryan made a motion to find that the applicant has met all the requirements and specifications of the Town of Maysville Zoning Ordinance regarding Conditional Use Permits within an I-1 Zoning Classification. Commissioner Brown seconded and motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. #3. Commissioner Ryan made a motion that the use will not substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property, or that the use is a public necessity. Commissioner Brown seconded and motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. #4. Commissioner Ryan made a motion that in granting the Conditional Use Permit, the use will be in conformity with the general plans for the development of the Town of Maysville. Commissioner Brown seconded and motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. #5. Commissioner Ryan made a motion that the proposed use will not constitute a nuisance or hazard because of the number of persons who will attend or use such facility, vehicular movement, noise, waste or fume generation, drainage, type of physical activity or hazardous-by-products or other materials on site. Commissioner Brown seconded and motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. #6. Commissioner Ryan made the motion that the proposed use will not be adversely affected by the existing uses. Commissioner Brown seconded and motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. #7. Commissioner Ryan made a motion that the proposed use will be placed on a lot of sufficient size to satisfy the space requirements of said use. Commissioner Brown seconded and motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Flowers recused. Commissioner Ryan made a motion to accept the conditional use permit application for James E. Maides. Commissioner Baker seconded and motion carried by unanimous vote. Commissioner Ryan made a motion to move from the Quasi-Judicial phase of the meeting back to a regular meeting.

The Police Department has purchased a patrol vehicle from the Bridgeton Police Department with funds from asset seizures from drug trafficking. The department is continuing to wok with other agencies on crime issues and is continuing with the Community Oriented Policy.

Nineteen seats were given out and instructions given on how to properly fasten the seats and when to replace them. MAINTENANCE REPORT/WATER SEWER REPORT Commissioner Baker deferred to Interim Town Manager Hogg. Mr. Hogg reported that one wastewater blower was down leaving three to carry the load. These three were running well at this time. He is concerned that there are currently no guard rails or covers around open pits at the sewer plant. Mr. Hogg suggested that OSHA be called for a free inspection. The town would then have eighteen months to correct any issues discovered during the inspection. He also stated that a dumpster is needed at the same location for solid wastes. Addressing the I and I issue, he believes that continued smoke tests and inspections after rainy periods with follow-up repairs could make the current capacity sufficient for future expansion. STREETS REPORT Commissioner Chapman reported that stop signs are down near the school and at the corner behind town hall. He has had a request from a citizen for a speed bump on First 8 Street.
