Coffey, Supervisor Permitting Branch Solid Waste Section Division of Solid Waste Management PO Box 27687 Raleigh, NC 27611-7687 Dear Mr. Coffey, County Manager. C. Jack Horton Clerk to the Board: Gwen S. Chambers In reference to our telephone conversation of August 27th, Haywood County requests an extension of permit expiration date for the Haywood County Sanitary Landfill Permit #44-03 to October 8, 1993. You, and much of the Solid Waste Section staff, are aware that the construction contract for the new White Oak facility has been extended until September loth, and the state inspection has been scheduled for September 13th. Given this time frame it will be necessary to remain at the current Francis Farm Road site until the operational permit is granted for White Oak. In no case will Haywood County be using the current site after October 8, 1993. I appreciate your timely response to this request as Haywood County has no desire to be in violation of state solid waste management rules. If I can answer any questions you may have, please contact me at (704)452-6625 or Fax #(704)452-6725. Sincerely, C.

Hunt, Jr., Telephone (919)733-0692 Jonathan R Howes, Secretary July 27, 1993 Mr. C. Jack Horton County Manager, Haywood County Courthouse Annex Waynesville, N.C. 28786 Re: Implementation Of Subtitle 'D' Ground -water Monitoring Program Dear Mr. Horton, The purpose of this correspondence is to provide information and clarification on the changes in ground -water monitoring requirements for MSWLF facilities that remain in operation after October 9, 1993. The recently adopted North Carolina Solid Waste Management Rules reflect significant changes for ground -water monitoring based on requirements of the E.P.A. Subtitle D Rules. Attachment A to this letter provides a summary of important dates and significant activities that must be accomplished in order to be in compliance with the new rules. Attachment B contrasts existing and new ground -water monitoring and assessment requirements based on changes in the rules. Because of significant increases in costs that will be incurred in order to operate a MSWLF under the new Subtitle D Rules, including financial assurance and increased costs for ground -water monitoring and assessment, you may wish to seriously consider closing your sanitary landfill prior to October 9, 1993, when the new rules become effective. Based on past ground -water monitoring data for the Haywood County landfill, there are already documented violations of North Carolina Groundwater Quality Standards at some of the detection monitoring wells. A copy of recent sampling analytical data is attached on which highlighting has been done for the Appendix I constituents that exceed the Groundwater Quality Standards. Therefore, when the new rules take effect, Haywood County may quickly be required to implement assessment monitoring for all Appendix II constituents. Since the Groundwater Quality Standards are also used in establishing the ground -water protection standards, you may also rapidly move into assessment of corrective action alternatives based P.O.

If Haywood County chooses to continue to operate their MSWLF facility after October 9, 1993, then you need to begin planning and budgeting immediately for the activities outlined in Attachment A. A revised Water Quality Monitoring Plan must be submitted as part of the Transition Plan on or before April 9, 1994. All background sampling and related activities for the upgraded monitoring system must be completed and reported to the Division in order to demonstrate compliance with the new water quality monitoring requirements on or before October 9, 1994. Please note that the goals and objectives for ground -water assessment monitoring and ground -water contamination investigations are the same under both the current and the proposed rules and shall be accomplished in a way that is protective of human health and the environment. However, current rules allow for greater flexibility in the assessment and investigation activities and the sample analytical costs could be substantially less using the constituent list required under current rules and policy as compared to analytical costs required by the new rules based on Subtitle D, which require sampling for the Appendix II list of constituents. I hope this letter has been helpful in providing you more insight into the actions that will be required by Haywood County to maintain compliance with the water quality monitoring requirements of the Solid Waste Management Rules as we make the transition to the new rules growing out of the E.P.A. Subtitle D Regulations. If you have any questions or comments regarding this letter, please contact the Solid Waste Section at (919) 733-0692.
