Page 1 of 3 FACILITY COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT Division of Waste Management NORTH CAROLINA Solid Waste Section ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: 1. All photos included in this report were taken by Susan Heim during the inspection on March 18, 2022. 2. The facility is permitted as an LCID landfill, a small Type 1 compost facility, and a treatment and processing facility for wood waste and used concrete. It is permitted to accept only land clearing debris, untreated wood, yard trash, and inert debris that is strictly limited to untreated/unpainted concrete, brick, concrete block, uncontaminated soil, rock, and gravel. Current wood waste operations do not include composting. 3. The purpose of this inspection was to view the completed construction of Phase 3, prior to allowing landfill operations to begin in this new phase. The landfill is currently operating in Phase 2, which Mr. Boyles estimated to be approximately 75% filled at the time of this inspection. No waste may be accepted in Phase 3 prior to Mr. Chao's approval to begin Phase 3 operations. (See Comment 10 below for additional information.) 4. In general, the facility appeared to be well -maintained, and operations were observed to be well managed. No windblown litter was noted, and no unacceptable waste was identified in the landfill or in the wood waste operations areas. 5. Mr. Boyles stated that construction of Phase 3 is complete, even though the finished depth is shallower than that shown on the approved plans. He explained that the wet weather had made it impossible to complete excavation in a timely manner so that the new phase would be available for use this spring. Mr. Boyles added that he understands no further excavation will be allowed after the as -built drawings have been submitted and approved. 6. Erosion control measures were observed to be in good condition and the new basin appeared to be functioning properly. Mr. Boyles pointed out the completed drainage swale that conveys surface water from the south side of the facility to the basin, located in the facility's northwest corner. The swale is accessible from the interior facility roadway, so that cleaning and repairs can be accomplished easily. 7. Edge of waste markers were observed around the perimeter of the entire landfill as well as around the outside boundary of Phase 3. Markers were spaced so that the perimeter of the fill area is easily discernable along each side of the landfill, as required. 8. The excavated area of the newly constructed Phase 3 aligned with the edge of waste markers that had been installed prior to the original facility permit being issued. The excavated slopes appeared to be stable, and no signs of erosion were visible, and no ponding water was noted on the floor of the new cell. 9. Several piles of soil from the new cell construction were staged in Phase 3 for use as cover on the northern side slopes as fill operations proceed. 10. Based on this inspection, Phase 3 appears to have been constructed as shown on the approved plans. Please provide as -built drawings and a construction certification to Permit Engineer Ming-Tai Chao (ming.chao(&ncdenr.gov) when they are completed. Mr. Chao will then review these materials and, once they are approved, he will provide approval for the facility to begin accepting waste in Phase 3.
