RE: 2016 FIRST QUARTER LANDFILL GAS MONITORING
PIEDMONT LANDFILL & RECYCLING CENTER
JOYCE PROJECT NO. 392.1601.12, TASK 02

Dear Al:

Attached to this letter is the landfill gas migration monitoring results for the first quarterly
monitoring event of 2016 at the Piedmont Landfill in Kernersville, North Carolina. Ten
permanent gas probes, eighteen bar-hole probes, and one on-site structure were monitored on
January 20, 2016. Gas Probe GP-10 was exempted from the compliance monitoring network in a
letter from North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) – Solid Waste
Section dated January 21, 2014. There was no exceedence of the LEL in the compliance network
or on-site structure. The results are presented on the NCDEQ format Landfill Gas Monitoring
Data Form dated January 20, 2016. The Piedmont Landfill monitoring results were also uploaded
to the WM LGMS on January 20, 2016. NCDEQ notification is not required at this time based
on no detections of methane and no exceedences of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) in the
compliance monitoring locations during the event.

A copy of this report should be kept on file for the facility. If you require anything else
please let me know [phone], or contact Mousa Maimoun at (704)-837-2005.

Sincerely,
