FACT SHEET
SOLID WASTE PERMIT NUMBER 6301-CDLF-1992

FACILITY: Moore County Construction and Demolition Debris Landfill
(CDLF)
COUNTY: Moore
CITY: Carthage, North Carolina
OWNER & OPERATOR: Moore County
P.O. Box 1927, Carthage N.C. 28357
FILE ID NO. (FID): XXX

DESCRIPTION
Moore County requested a permit to construct a new Cell 6 immediately adjacent to the
existing Moore County CDLF. The existing CDLF consists of a five (5)-phase waste disposal
area encompassing 21.7 acres with a gross capacity of 1,870,000 cubic yards. According to
the permit application, the construction of the Cell 6 of the landfill will include:
• A 5.6-acre lateral expansion (Phase 6) which is not included in the original landfill
disposal boundary but is within the landfill property boundary. This expansion will
increase the landfill waste boundary to 27.3 acres.
• Vertical expansions (Phases 7 & 8) over Phases 5 and 6 of the landfill. The
expansions will not increase the 27.3-acre waste boundary but will increase the
approved landfill final grade to approximately 475 feet above mean sea level.
• The combined lateral and vertical expansions will increase the landfill gross
capacity to 2,500,000 cubic yards.

Per North Carolina General Statute 130A-294(a3)(1)b(ii) and (1)(c), the proposed lateral
expansion and increase of 10 percent or more in the quantity of solid waste to be disposed
of in an existing sanitary landfill requires a new permit. This draft permit reflects the
request made by Moore County. This draft permit doesn’t change the landfill service area
and characteristics of the landfill’s acceptable waste stream that have been approved in the
previous permit.

Moore County owns and operates this CDLF which is located at 456 Turning Leaf Way in
Aberdeen, North Carolina. The CDLF is within the 215-acre landfill property which is also
occupied by a closed MSWLF unit, an active MSW transfer station, and other non-disposal
waste management units. The landfill service area is Moore County including all
municipalities within the county.
