1.0 INTRODUCTION
Nash County proposes to build an approximately 17 acre expansion of their currently permitted
11-acre Construction & Demolition debris landfill (CDLF), located at 3057 Duke Road (S.R.
1411) in Nashville, Nash County, North Carolina (Figure 1). The expansion and future
operations at this facility will be conducted in accordance with Solid Waste Rules 15A NCAC
13B .0531 et seq., which became effective January 1, 2007. This CDLF is an “existing” facility
as of August 31, 2007, with respect to the 2007 Solid Waste Act, and the facility meets the
vertical separation requirements of the Rules; as such the proposed expansion of this facility does
not require a synthetic liner; however, the soil-type requirements prescribed by the Rules for the
upper two (2) feet beneath the base grade do apply for proposed expansion, as do the final cover
requirements.
The permitted facility boundary encompasses approximately 84 acres (Figure 2). In 1998, the
NC Solid Waste Section (NCSWS) reviewed the Site Application for the Nash County CDLF.
The 1998 Site Application, prepared by Camp Dresser and McKee and submitted on behalf of
Nash County, studied the suitability of the approximately 84-acre site proposed for development
as a CDLF. The 1998 Site Application was reviewed and approved by the NCSWS in a
September 17, 1998 letter, subject to terms and conditions outlined in the letter. The Nash
County CDLF is currently operating Phase 3 of the currently permitted 11-acre landfill. The
proposed 17-acre expansion will be permitted as a substantial amendment in accordance with
15A NCAC 13B .0533 (a) (3) Substantial amendment to the permit. The portion of the landfill
property previously studied in the 1998 Site Application is the same portion of the landfill
property on which the proposed expansion of the C&D landfill will be located.
This volume presents the Design Hydrogeologic Report for the proposed CDLF expansion in
accordance with 15A NCAC 13B .0538 (b). The report is focused on the proposed 17-acre
expansion and supplements information presented in the Site Hydrogeologic Report submitted as
part of the original Site Application in 1998.

2.0 REGIONAL GEOLOGY AND HYDROGEOLOGY
2.1 Regional Geology
The Nash County CDLF is located within the Eastern Slate Belt of the Piedmont physiographic
province. More specifically, the site is located within the Spring Hope terrane, a Neoproterozoic
suprastructural volcanic arc complex that, in the vicinity of the site, is bounded to the west by
granitoid plutonic rocks of the Castalia Pluton and to the east by the Hollister Fault.1 An excerpt
of the 2009 Preliminary Bedrock Geologic Map of the Gold Sand, Centerville, Castalia and
Justice 7.5-minute quadrangles on which the Nash County CDLF location is shown is presented
below as Figure 3.

Bedrock within the Spring Hope terrane is largely composed of greenschist facies mafic to felsic
metavolcanic rocks and volcanogenic metasedimentary rocks.3 The volcanogenic
metasedimentary rocks have protoliths of siltstone, sandstone and mudstone, with rare
conglomerate, that occur in sequences and are interpreted as being deposited as turbidites and
reworked pyroclastic-epiclastic sediments.1 In the area of the site, bedrock is largely composed
of metamorphosed siltstone (argillite, phyllite, schist). Widely spaced vertical to steeply dipping
Mesozoic diabase dikes are present within the Spring Hope terrane which generally strike
northwest-southeast; however, none have been mapped in the area of the Nash County CDLF. In
addition, small, isolated intrusive metadiorite and metabasalt sills and dikes occur within the
mapping unit where the Nash County CDLF is located. However, none were observed during
this or previous investigations.
Major lithologic units near the site (Figure 3) include2:
CZfmv – felsic metavolcanic rocks; includes distinctive bluish, gray or white weathering,
thinly layered and locally strongly fissile fine grain rocks consisting predominantly of
very strongly recrystallized mosaic matrix of very fine quartz + sodic plagioclase +/-
microcline grains.
CZmmv – mafic volcanic rocks; includes massive fine to medium-grained epidote +
chlorite + actinolite + albite greenstone, chlorite phyllite and schist; weakly to non-
foliated medium to coarse-grained amphibolite consisting of hornblende and
intermediate plagioclase, with or without epidote/clinozoisite and Fe-Ti oxide
minerals; and metabasalt with relict igneous texture and common quartz +/- epidote
amygdules.
CZmgs – undivided metasedimentary rocks; predominantly metagraywacke and
metasiltstone; also includes minor metamudtone and metaconglomerate.
PPga – granitoid facies a; moderately K-feldspar porphyritic, medium to coarse-grained,
buff weathering, white or pink and white, unfoliated biotite granite and monzogranite.
The Nash County CDLF is located within the CZmgs mapping unit, which is consistent with the
few PWR exposures observed at the site as well as the lithology and texture of the saprolite and
PWR encountered during drilling.
Geologic evidence infers a complex sequence of three or more separate fold events in the eastern
Piedmont. South-plunging map-scale folds manifest the most recent folding event, the most

prominent of which in the Spring Hope terrane is the Spring Hope synform, the axis of which
lies immediately west of the Nash County CDLF site. Where bedding planes can be inferred,
beds appear to be vertical to sub-vertical in all cases.1 Bedding plane and axial plane foliation is
closely spaced, steeply dipping and generally strikes approximately N20W to N20E. Joints are
likewise steeply dipping, are widely spaced and generally strike N15E to N35E and N35W to
N60W based on measurements made at outcroppings of PWR in the borrow area at the Nash
County CDLF. This is consistent with the attitude of joints mapped in the area of the site.
2.2 Regional Hydrogeology
The Piedmont Province is generally underlain by a complex, two-part, regolith-fractured
crystalline rock aquifer system. The regolith (residuum and saprolite) varies in thickness up to
150 feet and generally consists of an unconsolidated or semi-consolidated mixture of clay and
fragmental material ranging in size from silt to boulders formed by the in-situ weathering of the
bedrock4. The regolith acts as a groundwater reservoir that slowly recharges the underlying
bedrock aquifer by drainage in the Piedmont groundwater system4. Relict structures and
directional properties controlling permeability or hydraulic conductivity are generally retained
within the saprolite. A highly permeable transition zone occurs at the base of the regolith where
saprolite grades into unweathered bedrock. The transition zone is commonly referred to as
partially weathered rock (PWR) and is characterized by standard penetration test resistance of
greater than 100 blows per foot while still allowing penetration by hollow stem auger drilling.
The thickness and texture of the transition zone depends largely on the texture and composition
of the parent rock, with more well-defined zones usually associated with highly foliated
metamorphic parent rock4. The high permeability of the transition zone is most likely the result
of incomplete weathering in the lower regolith such that chemical alteration of the bedrock has
not progressed to a stage where clay and other weathering by-products have been formed in
sufficient quantities to fill fractures and other secondary openings. Groundwater movement
within the fractured bedrock occurs primarily within secondary openings that were formed
during deformation and unloading. These secondary openings are primarily joints, faults and/or
bedding-plane and axial plane partings that form an interconnected system of channels through
which groundwater can flow.
Based on the current and previous hydrogeological studies conducted at the site, and past
experience with similar sites in the Piedmont region, the area groundwater flow regime appears
to follow the general model for Piedmont aquifer systems as described above. The shallow
aquifer in the area appears to be associated with relatively short segmented drainage features that

regional ground-water resource investigation of the Blue Ridge and Piedmont provinces of North Carolina.

developed along regional jointing and/or foliation. Shallow groundwater occurs within the
weathered metasiltstone regolith and PWR and serves as a reservoir for recharging the
underlying bedrock aquifer. Recharge to the regolith occurs via infiltration of precipitation.
Annual precipitation in the Nash County area is approximately 43 inches (State Climate Office
of North Carolina), of which approximately 13 inches provides recharge to aquifers. A portion of
the groundwater moves through the regolith and into interconnected fractures in the underlying
bedrock while another portion flows through the regolith parallel to the bedrock surface.
Groundwater discharges as seepage into perennial streams and associated wetlands, lakes or
other surface water bodies that occupy broad incised drainages. Evapotranspiration also
accounts for a significant portion of groundwater discharge. At the Nash County CDLF site, the
major drainage feature is Pig Basket Creek which flows from northwest to southeast to the east
of the landfill.
The movement of groundwater through the bedrock aquifer and the overlying saprolite aquifer is
strongly influenced by topography which generally controls the location of recharge and
discharge zones. Groundwater within the Piedmont generally moves from topographically high
areas (recharge zones) to topographically low areas within and along stream valleys (discharge
areas). The flow of groundwater is also influenced by fracture zones and foliation within the
bedrock and which may be retained as relic features within the saprolite and PWR. In the
Piedmont, productive fractures generally occur at depths above 300 to 350 feet below the
bedrock surface.5 Depending on the degree of fracturing, well yields generally range from less
than 1 gallon per minute (gpm) to 60 gpm in the Piedmont.
Typically, hydraulic conductivities in the regolith range from 2 x 10-3 feet per minute (ft/min) [1
x 10-3 centimeter per second (cm/s)] to 5 x 10-5 ft/min (3 x 10-5 cm/s). Hydraulic conductivities in
the bedrock aquifer typically range from 1 x 10-2 ft/min (5 x 10-3 cm/s) to nonconductive.

3.0 FIELD OBSERVATIONS
3.1 Topographic Setting and Drainage
The proposed CDLF expansion encompasses approximately 17 acres and is located more than
two miles northwest of the city of Nashville, North Carolina (Figure 1). The proposed CDLF
expansion area, along with topographic contours, is depicted in Figure 2. The topography in the
area of the site is characterized by uplands having gentle to moderate, rounded slopes separated
by broad, incised drainages that are commonly fringed with wetlands, typical of Piedmont
terrain. Ground surface elevations within the boundaries of the proposed CDLF expansion area
range from approximately 200 feet msl (mean sea level) in the northeast area to approximately
242 feet msl near the southwest corner of the active landfill (Figure 2). Overall, the topography
at the site generally slopes to the east and southeast toward Pig Basket Creek, located
approximately 350 feet east of the proposed CDLF expansion area, and an unnamed tributary to
Pig Basket Creek, located approximately 500 feet southeast of the CDLF expansion area. The
upper reach of a drainage swale is located in the southeast corner of the expansion area, and a
larger, better defined drainage swale is located approximately 200 to 300 feet south of the
southern border of the expansion area. Surface runoff follows the topographic contours and
generally drains to the east and southeast from the expansion area.
Approximately 50% of the land area within the borders of the proposed CDLF expansion is
covered with coniferous forest and the remaining land is open, having undergone extensive
reworking as the result of soil borrowing. A relatively steep topographic slope exists along the
east margin of the active soil borrow area down to the forested area in the south-central portion
of the proposed expansion area. Another relatively steep topographic slope exists along the east
margin of the forested area down to the former soil borrow area in the northeast portion of the
proposed CDLF expansion.
3.2 Springs, Streams and Other Groundwater Discharge Features
No springs, seeps, wetlands, perennial streams or other groundwater discharge features are
present within the boundaries of the proposed CDLF expansion area. The closest groundwater
discharge features to the expansion area are Pig Basket Creek and associated wetlands to the east
and the unnamed tributary to Pig Basket Creek to the south of the proposed expansion area
(Figure 2). These surface water bodies are the principal groundwater discharge features in the
area of the site.
3.3 Bedrock Characteristics
No bedrock outcrops were identified within or near the proposed CDLF expansion area.
Moreover, bedrock was not encountered in any of the boreholes drilled at the site during this or
7
previous investigations. The deepest borehole drilled at the site to date (P-18D) extended to 68
feet below grade or approximately 167 feet msl (see Figure 2 for boring locations). Limited
outcroppings of PWR are present within the active soil borrow area to the south of the active
CDLF landfill. The PWR appears to originate from meta-argillite or bedrock and is
characterized by closely spaced, steeply dipping foliation and widely spaced joints. Bedding
plane and axial plane foliation is closely spaced, steeply dipping and generally strikes
approximately N20W to N20E. Joints are likewise steeply dipping, are widely spaced and
generally strike N15E to N35E and N35W to N60W based on measurements made at the
outcroppings of PWR. The lithology and characteristics of the PWR at the outcrops are
consistent with those observed during drilling at the site and with the description of bedrock
mapping unit CZmgs (see Section 2.1). It is noted that green, weathered phyllite with wavy
sub-vertical foliation and abundant rock fragments was encountered in the borehole of
piezometer P-19D below weathered meta-argillite beginning at a depth of approximately 52 feet
below grade or approximately elevation 175.5 msl (see Figure 2 for boring locations). The
weathered phyllite is consistent with the description of bedrock mapping unit CZmmv (see
Section 2.1).

4.0 TEST BORINGS AND PIEZOMETERS
Fifteen soil borings were drilled within and immediately adjacent to the proposed 17-acre
expansion area for the Nash County CDLF. Eleven of the borings were completed as shallow
piezometers and four were completed as deep piezometers. Pairs of shallow and deep
piezometers were installed at four drilling locations for assessment of vertical potentiometric
gradients in the surficial aquifer. In addition, eleven piezometers installed as part of the 1998
Site Suitability Study (including three shallow/deep pairs), and six monitoring wells installed for
monitoring groundwater quality in the area of the active CDLF were used as part of this
investigation to characterize the hydrogeology of the site. Seven of the previously installed
piezometers and monitoring wells are located within or immediately adjacent to the proposed
CDLF expansion area. Consequently, the number of boring locations included in this
investigation exceeds the requirement of one boring per acre for the Design Hydrogeologic
investigation. The locations and designations of the piezometers and monitoring wells are shown
in Figure 2. A summary of test boring data, including depths to PWR and termination depths, as
well as piezometer/monitoring well construction specifications, is presented in Table 1. Test
boring logs and piezometer completion records for borings drilled as part of this investigation are
presented in Appendix A.
Test boring locations were selected based on topographic features for the purpose of
characterizing the lithology of the materials encountered during drilling and ground water
conditions within the planned disposal unit footprint and buffer area. The test borings represent
subsurface conditions at ridge lines and knolls (high elevations), along drainage bottoms (low
elevations) and intermediate slopes (mid-elevations). Piezometer screen intervals were selected
to represent the saprolite and PWR formations. As noted in Section 3.3, bedrock was not
encountered in soil borings drilled during this or previous investigations.
The fifteen test borings drilled during this investigation were drilled with a track-mounted
drilling rig equipped with hollow-stem augers (Mobile B-57). Soil samples were collected from
the test borings to document the lithology of the subsurface materials penetrated during drilling.
The samples were collected in 2-foot intervals at selected depths (generally every five feet)
within each boring using 2-feet long, 2-inch inside diameter (ID) steel split-spoon samplers in
accordance with standard penetration test (SPT) protocols (ASTM D 1586-84) to provide an
index for estimating soil strength and relative density. In conjunction with the penetration
testing, thirty split-spoon soil samples were retained for geotechnical laboratory testing (see
Section 5.0). The depths from which soil samples were collected from the test borings,
lithologic descriptions of the soils penetrated during drilling, as well as piezometer construction
details are indicated on the drilling logs included in Appendix A.
9
Each piezometer was installed through the augers to ensure proper construction and placement,
and is constructed of 2-inch ID Schedule 40 PVC solid casing and factory slotted well screen
(0.01 inch slots) connected by threaded, flush joints. The piezometers were completed to total
depths ranging from 30 to 68 feet below grade with 10 feet of well screen equipped with a PVC
bottom cap. The solid PVC casing of each piezometer extends from the top of the well screen to
approximately 2.5 feet above grade. The annular space of each piezometer is packed with
washed sand to a level of approximately 2 feet above the top of the well screen. A minimum
one-foot-thick bentonite seal rests on top of the sand pack, above which a Portland cement grout
extends to approximately 6 inches below grade. The PVC casing of each piezometer is equipped
with a sealed, locking cap to prevent unauthorized access. In addition, each piezometer casing is
protected with a steel, stick-up well protector with a hinged, locking cap. Each piezometer was
installed and constructed in accordance with North Carolina Well Standards.
Following installation, the piezometers were developed using a submersible pump to remove
sediment from within the piezometer and annular gravel pack, and to facilitate hydraulic
connection between the piezometer and surrounding aquifer material. At each piezometer, the
pump was lowered below the water table and was periodically raised and lowered through the
water column to agitate the water in the piezometer and induce trapped sediment to be released
from the sand pack into the piezometer. This process was repeated until the discharge water
appeared to be free of suspended sediments.
A piezometer survey was conducted by James G. Strickland Land Surveying, P.A. of Nashville,
NC, a licensed North Carolina surveyor in September 2013. The survey included measuring the
casing elevations and horizontal positions of the piezometers. Vertical elevations were
measured to an accuracy of 0.01-feet relative to North American Vertical Datum (NAVD) 88.
The points on the PVC casings at which the elevations were measured were permanently marked
for future reference. The horizontal positions of the piezometers were measured to the nearest
0.1-foot relative to the North Carolina State Plane (NCSP) coordinate system. Well elevation
data are included in Table 1.

5.0 LABORATORY GEOTECHNICAL TESTING
Laboratory testing of soil samples collected during drilling was conducted as part of the Design
Hydrogeologic investigation. The laboratory testing program consisted of the following tests.
Test Description ASTM Standard Number of Samples
Atterberg Limits D 4318 9
Grain Size w/Hydrometer D 422, D 1140 30
Moisture Content D 2216 9
Of particular relevance to the Design Hydrogeologic investigation are the results of the grain size
analyses, which were used to estimate specific yield of the unconsolidated sediments in the
surficial aquifer. Laboratory data sheets for the grain size analyses are included in Appendix B.
Grain size distribution and soil classification data are presented in Table 2.
The soils were classified in the laboratory according the Unified Soil Classification System
(USCS). These descriptions were matched to the boring logs to verify the visual soil
classifications. Based on the laboratory data, a majority of the on-site soils classify as silt, sandy
silt and silt with sand (SM), with occasional elastic silt (MH). Some of the laboratory tested
soils exhibited clay content in the range of 5 to 20 percent, which is consistent with field
observations (the soils are generally variably clayey silt and sandy silt). Most of the soils
submitted for Atterberg Limits testing exhibited low plasticity. One exception is the sample
collected from 3.0 to 5.0 feet below grade at boring P-22 which exhibited high plasticity. The
sample included significant clay content and is classified as clayey silt.
11
6.0 SITE GEOLOGY AND HYDROGEOLOGY
The evaluation of subsurface geology and hydrogeology presented in the following sections is
based on published information regarding the regional geological and hydrogeological
framework (discussed in Section 2.0) in conjunction with the descriptions of subsurface
materials recorded in the drilling logs (Appendix A) and the results of rising-head permeability
(“slug”) tests (Section 6.2.1).
6.1 Site Geology
Natural subsurface materials encountered during drilling of the piezometer borings are consistent
with descriptions of the regional geology presented in the published literature (see Section 2.0) ,
as well as borings drilled during the previous Site Suitability investigation conducted in 1998 and
during installation of groundwater monitoring wells for the currently active CDLF. Four distinct
lithologic units were identified at the site during this investigation and the 1998 Site Suitability
investigation, each of which is described below.
SILT and CLAY: The uppermost unit over most of the study area is comprised of a mixture of
low to medium plasticity silt and clay with minor sand which varies in color from red-brown to
orange and ranges in thickness from approximately 2 to 12 feet. The silt and clay unit is missing
in those areas where extensive soil borrowing has been conducted, in particular in the areas of
borings P-20/P-20D, P-22 and P-23 (Figure 2). The silt and clay appears to be soil formed by
extensive in-place weathering of the original bedrock, but may also include minor colluvial soils
formed on uplands and redeposited on slopes.
Silty CLAY: The silty clay unit was not encountered during drilling for this investigation;
however, the unit was encountered in piezometer borings drilled in the northwest portion of the
study area (P-5D, P-9, P-11D and P-13) during the 1998 Site Suitability investigation. The silty
clay unit is generally described as having low to medium plasticity, is red-purple and yellow,
orange and tan in color, and is characterized by closely spaced sub-vertical foliation with
common black mineralization along foliation and fracture planes. The silty clay unit generally
exhibits SPT values ranging from approximately 5 to 60 blows per foot, depending on the degree
of weathering and crystalline mineralization along fracture and foliation planes. Where present,
the unit ranges in thickness up to 30 feet.
Clayey SILT: The clayey silt unit either underlies the silty clay unit or is the uppermost unit in
the study area, and was encountered at all drilling locations except P-23 where extensive soil
borrowing has been conducted. The unit is distinctly saprolitic with generally conspicuous relict
rock fabric and structure that becomes more distinct with depth as the degree of weathering
decreases and it transitions to PWR. The unit appears to originate from extensive physical and
12
chemical weathering of the underlying meta-argillite bedrock and is characterized by closely
spaced, steeply dipping relict foliation and widely spaced relict joints. Rock fragments are
commonly present within the deeper portion of this unit, and well-indurated healed fractures are
present throughout the profile, often exhibiting dark mineral staining along the fracture faces at
depths below the water table. Horizontal partings are commonly observed superimposed on the
sub-vertical foliation, which are likely dynamic fractures formed from unloading processes.
Weathered black, brown, white and rust-orange mineral grains are common within this unit. The
upper portion of the unit is generally mottled red-brown-orange-tan-gray. Deeper portions of the
unit, where relict foliation is more distinct, is generally characterized by alternating, thin red,
red-brown, orange, tan and gray laminations in varying combinations. The clayey silt unit
generally exhibits SPT values ranging from approximately 20 to 50 blows per foot. Where
present, the unit ranges in thickness from 4 (P-26) to greater than 50 feet (P-20D).
Partially Weathered Rock (PWR): The PWR unit was encountered in all soil borings except P-
20S, P-20D and P-27. The PWR unit represents a transition zone at the base of the regolith
where saprolite grades into unweathered bedrock. As defined herein, the PWR unit is
characterized by SPT resistance of greater than 100 blows per foot while still allowing
penetration by hollow stem auger drilling. The PWR formed as the result of incomplete
weathering in the lower regolith such that chemical alteration of the bedrock has not progressed
to a stage where clay and other weathering by-products have been formed in sufficient quantities
to completely fill fractures and other secondary openings. Most of the PWR encountered at the
site is dense weathered meta-argillite (manifested as clayey silt) characterized by closely spaced
sub-vertical foliation, widely spaced relict high angle fractures, horizontal partings superimposed
on the foliation, and abundant rock fragments which increase in abundance with depth. The unit
is generally variably colored brown, gray, orange, red and/or tan, with some sections exhibiting
alternating gray-red-orange or gray-brown-tan laminations. The PWR was encountered at depths
ranging from the ground surface (P-23) where extensive soil borrowing has been conducted to 43
feet below grade (P-21D) near the northeast area of the proposed CDLF. The PWR unit was not
encountered at P-20D where drilling extended to 50 feet below grade. The thickness of the PWR
unit was not determined during this investigation because the surface of unweathered bedrock
was not encountered during drilling.
A change in lithology of the PWR to weathered meta-phyllite (manifested as silt) was
encountered in boring P-19D beginning at a depth of 52 feet below grade and extending to the
total depth of the boring (60 feet below grade). The weathered meta-phyllite is emerald green in
color and is characterized by a high chlorite content, closely spaced wavy sub-vertical foliation
manifesting relict flow texture, and abundant rock fragments. The lithology and characteristics
of the meta-phyllite encountered during drilling are consistent with the description of bedrock
mapping unit CZmmv (see Section 2.1).
13
Generalized geologic cross-sections in which graphical representations of the lithologic units
encountered during drilling are depicted are presented as Figures 4, 5 and 6. The locations of
the cross section lines are shown in Figure 2. The cross sections depict the subsurface
distribution of the lithologic units based on drilling logs from piezometer/well borings drilled
during this investigation and the 1998 Site Suitability investigation. The cross sections illustrate
a generally undulating contact between saprolite and the underlying PWR indicating differential
degrees of weathering that are likely the result variations in mineralogy and resistance to
weathering of the original parent bedrock. A subsurface pinnacle of PWR appears to be located
in the area of boring P-26 where the surface of PWR was encountered at a depth of 8 feet below
grade. Similarly, PWR was encountered beginning at the ground surface at the location of
boring P-23 where extensive soil borrowing has been conducted. The surface of competent
bedrock was not encountered during drilling in this investigation or the 1998 Site Suitability
investigation. The deepest borehole drilled at the site to date (P-18D) extended to 68 feet below
grade or approximately 167 feet msl (see Figure 2 for boring locations).
6.2 Site Hydrogeology
As determined in previous investigations and confirmed as part of this investigation, the surficial
aquifer at the site is comprised of the silty clay and clayey silt saprolite and PWR. Groundwater
within the surficial aquifer at the site generally occurs under water-table (unconfined) conditions
within the interstitial pore spaces and relict foliation and fractures of the saprolite and PWR. The
depth to groundwater in the surficial aquifer within the study area during the period of April
through September 2013 varied between approximately 5.8 (P-27) and 38.4 (P-26) feet below
ground surface. It noted that, with the exception of P-27, which is located outside the boundaries
of the planned CDLF expansion area, the depth to groundwater at all other piezometer locations
was greater than 14 feet below grade during the observation period. Based on the designed final
subgrade of the proposed CDLF expansion depicted in the geologic cross sections (Figures 4, 5
and 6) and the engineering plans included in the accompanying permit documents, the minimum
vertical separation requirements in 15A NCAC 13B .0540 (2) (a) between the seasonal high
water table as determined herein (see Section 6.2.4) and the final landfill grades are satisfied by
the engineering design of the landfill expansion.
6.2.1 Results of Aquifer Tests
Rising-head permeability (“slug”) tests were conducted in all of the piezometers installed for the
Design Hydrogeologic investigation to estimate the horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the
saturated lithologic units within the screen intervals of the piezometers. The slug tests were
conducted using a submersible pump in accordance with ASTM D 4044.
14
Static water level measurements were made at each piezometer prior to beginning the slug tests.
The slug tests were conducted by placing a combined data recorder/pressure transducer (In-Situ
Level Troll™) at the bottom of the piezometer and rapidly lowering the level of water below the
level measured at static conditions. The data logger was used to measure the rate of influx of
groundwater until water levels reached a minimum of approximately 80% of the static level
measured prior to testing. The measured rate of recovery of the water level is a function of the
horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer material in the vicinity of the well. The slug test
data was analyzed using the HydroSOLVE, Inc. AQTESOLV for Windows™ program according
to the Bouwer-Rice procedure.
Estimates of the hydraulic conductivity (K) of the aquifer materials at the locations of the
piezometers installed for the hydrogeological characterization were made based on analyses of
the water level versus time data collected during the slug tests. The data output and graphs
generated by AQTESOLV™ are provided in Appendix C. Calculated values of K based on the
slug test data are presented in Table 3.
Estimated values of hydraulic conductivity for the shallow surficial aquifer based on the results
of the slug tests performed in the 11 new shallow piezometers installed as part of this
investigation ranged from 2.26 x 10-5 cm/sec (0.064 ft./day) at piezometer P-25 to 6.51 x 10-3
cm/sec (18.5 ft./day) at piezometer P-27. The geometric mean K for all the shallow piezometers
is 5.90 x 10-4 cm/sec (1.67 ft/day). Estimated values of hydraulic conductivity for the deep
surficial aquifer based on the results of the slug tests performed in the four new deep piezometers
ranged from 3.82 x 10-4 cm/sec (1.08 ft./day) at piezometer P-21D to 2.01 x 10-3 cm/sec (5.71
ft./day) at piezometer P-20D. The geometric mean K for all the deep piezometers is 8.02 x 10-4
cm/sec (2.27 ft/day). The values of hydraulic conductivity determined for the surficial aquifer
are similar to those determined by slug tests performed during the 1998 Site Suitability
investigation. It is noted that the geometric average K determined for the deep surficial aquifer
is approximately five times greater than the geometric average K for the shallow surficial
aquifer. This difference is likely due to the lesser degree of weathering and infilling of secondary
openings in deeper zones of the surficial aquifer in resulting higher intrinsic permeability.
6.2.2 Short and Long Term Groundwater Elevations
Table 4 presents a summary of short-term ground water levels observed at the end of drilling and
24-hours after installation of the piezometers, as well as stabilized groundwater level readings
obtained a minimum of seven days after completion of the piezometers.
Table 5 presents a summary of long-term groundwater level observations at the piezometers
installed for this study, existing piezometers installed for the 1998 Site Suitability investigation,
15
as well as nearby monitoring wells installed to monitor groundwater quality in the vicinity of the
currently active CDLF.
The groundwater elevation data presented in Table 5 indicate that the majority of the highest
groundwater elevations recorded during the monitoring period at the new and previously
installed piezometers (23 of 26 locations) occurred during July 2013. This corresponds with
unusually high rainfall totals during July in Nash County and surrounding areas. Although only
one of the groundwater monitoring wells (MW-3) had a historical high groundwater elevation
recorded during July 2013, the historical high groundwater elevations for the remaining
monitoring wells average only approximately 1 foot higher than the groundwater elevations
measured in July 2013. Moreover, the database of groundwater elevations for the monitoring
wells covers a period of 6 ½ years. Therefore, the groundwater elevations measured at the
piezometers and monitoring wells during July 2013 are considered good approximations of
historical high water-table conditions.
Historical climatic trends are published using regional climatic data from the NOAA National
Climatic Data Center. A key parameter of interest is the Palmer Hydrologic Drought Index
(PHDI), shown below, which is compiled for 15 years of weather records for the northern
Coastal Plain region of North Carolina, which includes Nash County. The PHDI represents an
overall moisture balance within a region, compiled from multiple weather stations for average
precipitation, temperature, evapotranspiration, leaf indices (growing season), wind velocities,
and solar radiation. Palmer indices provide a more complete description of climatic trends than
precipitation data alone, since evapotranspiration effects are factored into the overall moisture
balance in the atmosphere and at the ground surface (i.e., the water availability for ground water
recharge).
The PHDI graph indicates that drought conditions persisted from mid-1998 through mid-1999
followed by a period of wet conditions ending in early 2001. Drought conditions once again
persisted from early 2001 through early 2002 followed by generally wet conditions through mid-
2007. Extreme drought conditions persisted from mid-2007 through late-2009 followed by a
period of alternating wet and dry conditions through October 2013. The PHDI graph clearly
illustrates the above average moisture conditions which have persisted at the since June 2013.
This wet period corresponds to the period during which the highest groundwater elevations at
most of the site piezometers were recorded.
16
Approximately 50% of the land area within the borders of the proposed CDLF expansion is
devoid of vegetation, having undergone extensive reworking as the result of soil borrowing.
These open areas provide recharge zones to the surficial aquifer resulting in a more marked
response of the water table to precipitation events than in those areas covered with vegetation
where evapotranspiration constrains aquifer recharge. The currently active CDLF lies to the
north and west of the proposed CDLF expansion area. The relatively impervious cover soils
placed on the active CDLF effectively inhibit infiltration of precipitation thereby greatly
inhibiting aquifer recharge. Pig Basket Creek and associated fringing wetlands located east of
the proposed CDLF expansion area serve as ground water discharge features at the site, which
tend to stabilize groundwater levels.
6.2.3 Horizontal and Vertical Groundwater Flow
A water-table elevation contour map for the study area based on groundwater elevation gauging
data collected in September 2013 from the shallow piezometers installed as part of this
investigation, as well as existing shallow piezometers installed as part of the 1998 Site Suitability
investigation and water-table monitoring wells installed to monitor the currently active CDLF, is
presented as Figure 7. The geometric configuration of the water-table elevation contours
presented in Figure 7 indicate that bulk flow of shallow groundwater at the site is generally to
the east-northeast toward Pig Basket Creek, which is consistent with previous delineations of
shallow groundwater flow at the site. Based on the groundwater elevation contour map shown in
Figure 7, the hydraulic gradient of the water table ranged from approximately 0.002 ft/ft to 0.03
17
ft/ft in September 2013. The geometric mean hydraulic gradient of the water table was
approximately 0.011 ft/ft. (see Table 6).
Estimates of the horizontal interstitial groundwater flow velocity in the shallow surficial aquifer
are presented in Table 6. The flow velocity estimates are based on hydraulic conductivity values
derived from slug tests conducted in the piezometers (Section 6.2.1), groundwater elevation data
collected on September 30 2013 from the shallow piezometers and monitoring wells, and
estimates of effective porosity derived from visual classifications and grain size distribution
analyses of selected samples of soil collected from the surficial aquifer.
Effective porosity values for soils and sediments are commonly derived using the method of
Johnson (1967)6 based on grain size distribution. This method relies on the assumption that
specific yield is numerically equivalent to effective porosity. However, not all water-filled pores
or secondary openings are interconnected (e.g. “dead-end” or isolated pores) or significantly
contribute to bulk flow, but may still be drainable in tests to determine specific yield. More
recent research has shown that estimates of effective porosity based on grain size analysis tend to
overestimate the numerical value of effective porosity by approximately 80%.7 Consequently,
effective porosity values estimated using the method of Johnson (1967) should be considered
maximum estimated values. Calculated values of effective porosity are included in Tables 2, 3,
and 6.
The bulk average interstitial groundwater flow velocity (vw) can be expressed according the
relation vw = Ki/ƞe, where K is the horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer material, i is
the hydraulic gradient, and ƞe is the effective porosity of the aquifer material. Calculations of the
horizontal groundwater flow velocity are presented in Table 6. Based on the calculations
presented in Table 6, the interstitial groundwater flow velocity in the shallow aquifer is
estimated to range from 0.004 ft/day (1.46 ft/yr) to 2.59 ft/day (946 ft/yr), with a geometric mean
of 0.29 ft/day (65.75 ft/yr). The wide range of groundwater flow velocities calculated for the
surficial aquifer (approximately three orders of magnitude) is likely a reflection of differential
degrees of weathering within the saprolite and PWR and thereby the abundance of secondary
openings available for groundwater flow.
It is noted that the majority of groundwater flow occurs through interconnected zones exhibiting
the highest permeability. Calculations of average bulk groundwater flow velocity using the

18
method applied herein are not based on a weighted average of volumetric flow through zones of
varying permeability. Consequently, the bulk average groundwater flow velocities calculated
using this method should be considered minimum values. Moreover, the velocity of groundwater
flow through zones of highest permeability may significantly exceed the average calculated
values.
Vertical potentiometric gradients denote the potential for groundwater to move vertically through
an aquifer. Vertical gradients are calculated by dividing the difference in groundwater elevation
between two adjacent piezometers with screens installed at different elevations in the saturated
interval of interest by the vertical distance between the midpoints of the saturated interval of the
well screens. Positive values denote downward vertical gradients whereas negative values
denote upward vertical gradients.
Table 7 presents estimated vertical groundwater potentiometric gradients for the surficial aquifer
based on groundwater gauging data collected during the period of April to September 2013 for
piezometer couplets P-18S/18D, P-19S/19D, P-20S/20D, P-21S/21D, P-11/11D and P-15/15D.
A comparison of groundwater elevation data between adjacent piezometers provides an
indication of vertical groundwater movement within the surficial aquifer.
The results of the vertical potentiometric gradient analysis indicate that slight upward gradients
were measured during all gauging events for piezometer pair P-18S/18D, ranging in magnitude
from 2.21 x 10-2 ft/ft to 3.57 x 10-2 ft/ft. For piezometer pair P-19S/19D, slight downward
vertical gradients were measured during all gauging events, ranging in magnitude from 5.64 x
10-3 ft/ft to 4.58 x 10-2 ft/ft. For piezometer pair GM-23/23D, vertical potentiometric gradients
were observed to fluctuate from slight downward gradients in April, May and July 2013 (1.47 x
10-3 ft/ft to 2.45 x 10-3 ft/ft) to slight upward gradients in June, August and September 2013 (4.89
x 10-4 ft/ft to 1.47 x 10-3 ft/ft). At piezometer pair P-21S/21D, slight downward vertical
gradients were measured during all gauging events, ranging in magnitude from 1.64 x 10-2 ft/ft to
3.68 x 10-2 ft/ft. At piezometer pair P-11/11D, vertical potentiometric gradients were observed to
fluctuate from slight downward gradients in April and September 2013 (4.66 x 10-3 ft/ft and 2.66
x 10-2 ft/ft, respectively) to slight upward gradients in June, July and August 2013 (7.59 x 10-3
ft/ft to 1.35 x 10-2 ft/ft). At piezometer pair P-15/15D, slight downward vertical gradients were
measured during all gauging events, ranging in magnitude from 1.49 x 10-2 ft/ft to 3.43 x 10-2
ft/ft.
The results of the horizontal and vertical potentiometric gradient analyses indicate that bulk
groundwater flow within the surficial aquifer is dominated by lateral flow toward Pig Basket
Creek and associated fringing wetlands, which are the major groundwater discharge features in
19
the study area. Vertical potentiometric gradients are slight and appear to have little influence on
bulk groundwater flow within the proposed CDLF area.
6.2.4 Estimated Seasonal High Water Table
As discussed in Section 6.2.2, the groundwater elevation data presented in Table 5 indicate that
the majority of the highest groundwater elevations recorded during the monitoring period (April
through September 2013) at the new and previously installed piezometers (23 of 26 locations)
occurred during July 2013. This corresponds with unusually high rainfall totals during July in
Nash County and surrounding areas. Although only one of the groundwater monitoring wells
(MW-3) had a historical high groundwater elevation recorded during July 2013, the historical
high groundwater elevations for the remaining monitoring wells average only approximately 1
foot higher than the groundwater elevations measured in July 2013. Moreover, the database of
groundwater elevations for the monitoring wells covers a period of 6 ½ years.
The highest groundwater elevation recorded at each shallow piezometer and monitoring well was
selected from the database included in Table 5, regardless of date, to establish the seasonal high
water table. A groundwater elevation contour map for the shallow surficial aquifer using the
highest groundwater elevation recorded at each piezometer and monitoring well is presented in
Figure 8, and is considered to graphically depict the estimated seasonal-high water table for the
site. In addition, the seasonal high water table is also graphically depicted in the geologic cross
sections in Figures 4, 5, and 6 to depict the vertical relationship between the seasonal high water
table and the engineered final subgrade of the proposed CDLF expansion. Based on the designed
final subgrade of the proposed CDLF expansion depicted in the geologic cross sections (Figures
4, 5 and 6) and the engineering plans included in the accompanying permit documents, the
minimum vertical separation requirements in 15A NCAC 13B .0540 (2) (a) between the seasonal
high water table as determined herein and the final landfill subgrade are satisfied by the
engineering design of the landfill expansion.
6.2.5 Special Geologic Considerations
No unusual geologic features have been determined which would affect groundwater flow or the
ability to effectively monitor groundwater quality at the site, including faults, mines or dikes.
Site conditions appear typical of the North Carolina Piedmont region.

Notes:Ground Water Velocity Calculated from Equation
V=KI/n where K = Hydraulic Conductivity in units of ft/day
I = Hydraulic Gradient in units of ft/ft
n = Effective Porosity (unitless)
Hydraulic Conductivity values from aquifer slug testing using the Bouwer-Rice method
Hydraulic Conductivity Conversion Factor: 1 ft/day = 3.59E-04 cm/sec
Hydraulic Gradient values were calculated from the potentiometric surface map
Effective Porosity values derived from Table 2
