RE: 14-DAY NOTIFICATION
FIRST SEMI-ANNUAL WATER QUALITY MONITORING EVENT OF 2017
HANES MILL ROAD LANDFILL, PERMIT NO. 34-02
WINSTON-SALEM, NORTH CAROLINA
Dear Jackie:
On behalf of Winston-Salem/Forsyth County City/County Utilities Commission (CCUC), Golder Associates NC, Inc. (Golder) is submitting this 14-Day Notification as required by North Carolina Solid Waste
Management Regulation (NCSWMR) 15A North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) 13B .1633(c)(1). The 14-Day Notification of Groundwater Protection Standard Exceedance(s) form is included as
Attachment 1.
Tables 1 through 3 (shown below) summarize the NC Appendix I constituents that were detected at
concentrations above their respective Solid Waste Section Reporting Limits (SWSLs) and NC 2L Groundwater Standards or Solid Waste Section Groundwater Protection Standards (SWS GPSs) during
the first semi-annual water quality monitoring event of 2017 conducted at the closed unlined landfill, the closed Subtitle D landfill, and the active Subtitle D landfill at the above-referenced facility between March
5, 2017, and April 6, 2017. The laboratory certificates-of-analyses are included as Attachment 2. It is noted that the Closed Unlined Landfill is in corrective action for volatile organic compounds (VOCs); therefore no
notifications for groundwater standard exceedances for VOCs are required for this facility.
Table 1: 14-Day Notifications for the Closed Unlined Landfill
Constituent: Location: Result (µg/L): SWSL (µg/L): NC2L or SWS GPS

Barium OW-3 1200 700 100 12000
Cobalt OW-3 17.4 10 1 800
Notes: µg/L = micrograms per liter
The proposed GPSs are based on statistical analyses presented in the 14-Day Notification and
Alternate Source Demonstration, dated November 3, 2016, for the second semi-annual water quality monitoring event of 2016.

explanation if flags should be removed. If flags need to be added for samples, also list below.

MG It is clear from the laboratory report that samples have or have not been diluted during
analysis, and if the samples have been diluted, the result is reported as a multiple of the dilution (e.g., a sample diluted 10x resulting in an analytical detection of 1.0 should be reported as 10). Those that have been diluted are listed below with the dilution
factor. MG The report provides the reporting limit for each constituent.
MG The results were reported at or below their proper reporting limits (e.g., NC Solid Waste
Section Reporting Limits-SWSLs). Those that are not reported correctly are listed below (by constituent) with the proper reporting limit listed beside them. State if the reporting limit error is due to dilutions.

detects for blanks are listed below by constituent. All laboratory method blanks, if any, have been ‘flagged’ with a ‘B’ where detected in other samples as appropriate and a
laboratory narrative was provided. If the sample was flagged by the laboratory and is not within 5X of the concentration in the blank (or 10X for commonly detected laboratory contaminants-acetone, methylene chloride and phthalates), list below with explanation
if flags should be removed. If flags need to be added for samples, also list below.

be reported as 10). Those that have been diluted are listed below with the dilution factor.
MG The report provides the reporting limit for each constituent.
MG The results were reported at or below their proper reporting limits (e.g., NC Solid Waste Section Reporting Limits-SWSLs). Those that are not reported correctly are listed
below (by constituent) with the proper reporting limit listed beside them. State if the reporting limit error is due to dilutions.
