Western Carolina University County operated a MSWLF on a 31.5 acre tract of land located within two and one half miles of its campus (see location map, on the plan.) The current landfill consists of a Category 2 (the landfilling of municipal solid waste ceased prior to October 9, 1993), discrete landfill area as delineated on the attached plans. II. LANDFILL CLOSURE A. Final contours for this portion of the landfill have essentially reached the proposed final contours of the original plan. B. Final cover and cap system will be provided to have an 18 inch low -permeability layer of soil with a permeability of no greater then 1 x 10 - 5 which is available on site in quantities sufficient to cover the entire category (2) two MSWLF. A minimum of (6) six inches of soil will be placed above the low permeability cap system to encourage growth of native planting and provide for erosion protection and to protect root penetration into the cap system. C. Permanent erosion control measures will be implemented as shown on the attached plan which includes a riprap ditch line and drainage directed to the ditch line by diversion berms. D. Drainage Control will be accomplished with the use of diversion berms and controlled cross slope of the landfill surface. E. Vegetative cover will be provided upon completion of all cover operations. The seeding, fertilizing and mulching will be in accordance with the vegetative cover specifications on the plans which include native grasses as included in the original operational plan. Page 2 II. con't F. Leachate control will be provided if conditions warrant for containment on site and properly disposed of —but at present there is no evidence that there is a leachate problem from the operation. G. Written notification and certification of the facility compliance with the closure conditions will be provided by the owner/operator and his N.C. Registered Professional Engineer. H. An inspection by the NCDEHNR Division Representative concerning compliance with the closure conditions will be requested as soon as practicable and prior to the October 9, 1994 deadline. III. POST -CLOSURE CONDITIONS Post closure care will consist of maintaining all erosion control storm drainage measures and vegetative cover in compliance with the closure conditions as approved. A comprehensive water quality monitoring program will be continued during the post closure time period as required by the Division in accordance with the N.C. Water Quality Monitoring Guidance Document for Solid Waste Facilities. During the period of post -closure care attention will be given to the potential for concentrations of explosive gases and if conditions warrant measures will be designed to mitigate any adverse effects. Access to the closed MSWLF will be controlled by fencing and or gate structures at the access road preventing unauthorized access by the public. The final grading of the site is designed to prevent ponding and any excessive settlement which appears to provide a potential ponding situation will be dealt with as part of the post closure care of the MSWLF. During Post -closure care the Owner/operator will comply fully with current ground water regulations. t I - IV. POST -CLOSURE OPERATIONS To provide for solid waste collection and disposal after closure 1 the MSWLF, the University has applied for a temporary construction permit for a transfer station to transfer MSW from the proposed station sited within the boundary of the landfill property to a remote permitted MSWLF. The above operation will be sited a minimum of 100 feet from the closed MSWLF and will in no way affect the closure/post-closure operations of the discrete MSWLF unit. A. TRANSFER STATION 1. Source of transferred waste will be 100% University generated waste including office, academic, dormitory and cafeteria All recycling is accomplished at the source. Destination of transferred waste will be the Jackson County, Dillsboro (Public Landfill.) 2. Proposed location within landfill facility; including buffer distances to waste, property boundary, dwellings, wells, streams, etc., as shown on attached plan. 3. There are no proposed management activities in addition to the transfer of solid waste at this site. Recycling operations are conducted at the source and yard waste is composed at a different site. Total solid waste volume to be transferred is estimated to be 400 tons per year. 4. Operational procedures to manage waste in a sanitary manner; including wastewater, windblown waste, vector control, fire control, etc. Waste will be dumped directly into watertight containers. Transfer Station Con't _- -A. No wash down facilities areplanned for this site since the majority of the solid waste is dry paper and plastic materials with very little liquid and the waste hauling containers have water tight seals. B. The area is policed daily to collect any wind blown trash. C. Containers are hauled away daily at 4:00 P.M. so there will be no problem with vector control. D. Each truck hauling solid waste is equipped with a fire extinguisher and the Cullowhee Volunteer Fire Department is only three miles from the site. 5. Transition schedule; there are no additional waste management activities planned for this site. 6. Determination that operation of these facilities will not interfere in any way with the closure and post -closure requirements of the MSWLF unit; Transfer of solid waste within the MSWLF unit following closure will not interfere with post closure cover operations because of its remote location. V. Addition Information From Western Carolina A. Letter of Intent concerning landfill closure and request for a temporary permit to operate a transfer station on the landfill property. B. Letter from Jackson County indicating that there is no zoning at the landfill. Page 5 C. Soils reports from LAW ENGINEERING TESTING COMPANY concerning the density and perme-abil-it-y of the-avaia-bl-e--- soils to be used for final cover. While the soil testing shows a permeability in the range of 4.5 to 2.7 x 10 -5, the geotechnical consultants believe that by using two to three percent moisture over optimum and or using a modified proctor that the soil will be suitable for final cover providing a permeability of 1.0 x 10 -5 or less. OFFICE OF THE PHYSICAL PLANT (704) 227-7442 September 27, 1993 Ms. Jan McHargue North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources 3025 North Point Boulevard, Suite 100 Winston-Salem, NC 27106-3203 Reference: Western Carolina University Landfill Closure (Permit No. 50-01) Dear Ms. McHargue: The University will cease solid waste disposal activities at its landfill on October 5, 1993. However, the landfill facility will continue to be used as a collection site for solid waste generated by the University. The solid waste will be collected in 40 cubic yard containers rented from and hauled away by a solid waste collector. A closure plan is being developed by Jensen Engineering and will include the siting of a convenience facility for placement of 40 cubic yard containers for deposit of University generated wastes. As an interim, we request temporary approval to continue use of the landfill facility for a waste management activity. The following information is provided in accordance with DEHNR memo updated August 1, 1993, page 5: A. The solid waste is generated by activities in administrative, academic, dormitory and cafeteria facilities. It also includes litter that is collected around the campus. The collected waste will be disposed of at a permitted MSWLF. A request for proposals will be opened on October 1, 1993. We anticipate the contract hauler will utilize Jackson County's landfill. B. The location of the convenience facility is shown on the ,attached plan. C. No other waste management activities are planned for the landfill facility. Recycling/product separation is accomplished at the source. CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA 28723 Western Carolina University is one of the sixteen senior restitutions of The University of North Carolina and an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. Ms. Jan McHargue September 27, 1993 Page 2 D. Operational procedures will be addressed in the permanent application, if necessary, within 180 days of temporary approval. Windblown waste will be policed daily by both the operator and hauler. E-. A -permanent app-lic-ation will be prepared (see par-agr-aph-D- ) . F. The convenience facility is located in the borrow area, well clear of the disposal area and will not interfere with closure or post -closure activities of the MSWLF.

Turk on June 6, 1994, and referencing our Ce,ifirming Proposal, dated June 20. 1994, Law Engineering has performed permeability and fielt density testing on the soil cap placed over Landfill No. 50-01. This report summarizes t;ie work performed and presents the results of our testing. Permeability Testing Two samples of the soil cap were obtained for permeability testing. These samples were obtained by driving a four inch diameter tube into the soil cap after removing 2 to 6 inches o organic material. These samples were marked with identifying sample numbers and then sealed t, prevent disturbance and loss of moisture. The samples were then transported to our Charlotte, North Carolina laboratory. Upon arrival at the Charlotte laboratory, the samples were prepared and tested for permeability in accordance with ASTM D 5084, "Test Method for Hydraulic Conductivity of Saturated Porus Materials Using a Flexible Wall Permeameter". LAW ENGINEERING, INC. 1308-C PATTON AVENUE • ASHEVILLE, NC 28806 (704) 252-8130 • FAX (704) 251-9690 b ONE OF THE LAW COMPANIES Western Carolina Landfill - Report of PenneabiMy and Field Density Testing July 15, 1994 Law Engineering Job 2430227902 One -of the -samples, P-2, could not be tested as the soil layers were not bound together, and - - d-when-rem d-from-the-samglertube.- The permeability result of the sample tested is 6.2 x 10-1. The results of our testing are shown on the attached "Summary of Laboratory Permeability Testing" sheet. Field Density Testffij Kline field density tests were performed in addition to the permeability test to determine the in -place density of the soil cap. These tests were performed in general accordance with ASTM D 2937. "Standard Method for Density of Soil In Place by the Drive Cylinder Method". The moisture content was determined in accordance with ASTM D 2216 except that the soil was dried to a constant weight using a hot plate instead of an oven. The dry density as determined by this method was compared with the maximum dry density as determined by test method ASTM D 698, "Test Method for Laboratory Compaction Characteristics of Soil using Standard Effort", performed on representative samples of the soil. This comparison is expressed as percent compaction. The results of these field density tests are shown on the attached "Report of Field Density Tests" sheets. Standard Proctor Tests One sample representing the soil type encountered was obtained and returned to our labora,ory for standard Proctor testing. This sample was prepared and tested in accordance with ASTM D 698. The results of this test are shown on the attached "Proctor Test Report" sheet. 2 Western Carolina Landfill - Report of Penneability and Field Density Testing Jul 15, 1994 Law Engineering Job 2430227902 Law Engineering appreciates the opportunity to provide our services on this project.
