Dear Mr. Bell:
The Solid Waste Section has completed a review of the Request for Time Extension dated August 17, 2017
(DIN 28407) submitted on your behalf by Amec Foster Wheeler for Phase I and Phase II of the C&D Landfill,
Solid Waste Permit Number 7407. In a letter dated January 30, 2017 (DIN 27312), C&D Landfill, Inc. was
instructed to begin the groundwater corrective action process by submitting an Assessment of Corrective
Measures for the landfill within 180 days (six months) of receipt of the letter in accordance with 15A NCAC
13B .0545(b)(10) and 15A NCAC 13B .0545(c). To date, the Solid Waste Section has not received the
Assessment of Corrective Measures, and the document is past due.
The Request for Time Extension was submitted in response to the non-submittal of the Assessment of
Corrective Measures by the deadline, in response to an exchange of emails with you and your
environmental consultant, and in response to a phone conversation with your environmental consultant.
Within the Request for Time Extension, C&D Landfill, Inc. is requesting a 30 day extension to submit the
Assessment of Corrective Measures.
The Solid Waste Section approves the Request for Time Extension as described. Please submit the required
Assessment of Corrective Measures within 30 days of receipt of this letter.
C&D Landfill, Inc. must take all necessary steps to ensure the protection of public health and the
environment. If the Assessment of Corrective Measures is not submitted, C&D Landfill, Inc. may be
entered into Tiered Enforcement in order to come into and/or to maintain compliance with the Statutes,
Rules, and/or other regulatory requirements applicable to this facility. Be advised that pursuant to N.C.G.S.
130A-22, an administrative penalty of up to $15,000 per day may be assessed for each violation of the
Solid Waste Laws, Regulations, Conditions of a Permit, or Order under Article 9 of Chapter 130A of the
N.C. General Statutes. Further, the facility and/or all responsible parties may also be subject to
enforcement actions including penalties, injunction from operation of a solid waste management facility
or a solid waste collection service and any such further relief as may be necessary to achieve compliance
with the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Act and Rules.
