1 Purpose and Background
1.1 Purpose
This report is being submitted in compliance with the requirements of the April 8, 2010
Certificate of Approval issued by the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (NCDENR) (now the Department of Environmental Quality, NCDEQ) Land Quality
Section for construction of Phases IV and V of the Roxboro Industrial Landfill, which is located
within the watershed of the East Ash Basin Dam. The East Ash Basin Dam (State ID PERSO-
033-L) is regulated by the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources, Land Quality
Section under the North Carolina Dam Safety Rules (15A NCAC 2K) and is classified as a low
hazard dam. The dam has not impounded water since the 1980s.

The Certificate of Approval is presented in Attachment 1, along with subsequent relevant
correspondence. Stipulation 3 of the Certificate of Approval requires the Engineer of Record to
submit an annual progress report indicating that construction of landfill Phases IV and V (now
referred to as Phases 4 and 5) is proceeding in accordance with “approved plans” (refer to
Section 1.3). This progress report is for calendar year 2015. Copies of these annual progress
reports are filed in the landfill’s operating record, along with construction certification reports,
permits to operate, environmental monitoring data, and other relevant documents.

1.2 Background
NCDENR Division of Waste Management Solid Waste Section (SWS) issued the original permit
for the Roxboro Industrial Landfill in 1988 (Solid Waste Permit No. 7302-INDUS), which began
as an unlined landfill. NCDENR SWS issued a Permit to Construct for lined Phases 1, 2 and 3
on June 22, 2002. The involvement of the North Carolina Dam Safety Program began
approximately at the time the permit application for lined Phases 4 and 5 was submitted to
NCDENR SWS. The Construction Plan for Phases 4 and 5 was reviewed and approved by the
State Dam Safety Engineer (documented in the April 8, 2010 Certificate of Approval) prior to
SWS issuing the Permit to Construct on May 28, 2010.

The construction and filling of Phase 6, in accordance with the currently permitted design, was
determined to fall outside the jurisdiction of the North Carolina Dam Safety Law of 1967 as
documented by a May 14, 2013 letter from the State Dam Safety Engineer (presented in
Attachment 1). The April 2013 Annual Engineer’s Progress Report states that this decision was
based in part on the assumption that the peak elevation of Phase 6 would not exceed the peak
permitted elevation of Phases 1 through 5, which at that time was 660 ft based on the 2010
approval of the Construction Plan for Phases 4 and 5 (refer to DIN 9106 in Section 1.3).

Phases 1 through 5 have a single geomembrane liner with a leachate collection system. Phase
6 has a double geomembrane liner with leachate collection and leakage detection systems.
More detailed descriptions of the engineering controls for Phases 1 through 5 and Phase 6 are
presented in previous annual progress reports.

1.3 Approved Plans
The purpose of this section is to document Amec Foster Wheeler’s understanding of “approved
plans.” The table below is copied from the “List of Documents for Approved Plan” in the current
Permit to Operate for the landfill, issued by NCDEQ on February 9, 2015, and includes the
NCDEQ document identification number (DIN) of each document. Correspondence in the

2 Quality Assurance and Slope
Stability
2.1 Introduction
Amec Foster Wheeler understands that the primary concern of the North Carolina Dam Safety
Program is the slope stability of the East Ash Pond Dam and a secondary concern is the slope
stability of the landfill. Slope stability analyses performed by Amec Foster Wheeler to directly
address the primary and secondary slope stability concerns are contained in the annual
progress report for calendar year 2014 (Reference 2). Section 2.2 of this report summarizes the
compaction QA activities performed in 2015. No additional field explorations, laboratory testing,
or slope stability analyses were needed for this report for calendar year 2015.

2.2 Quality Assurance
Ongoing quality assurance activities consist of annual topographic survey updates and
generally weekly compaction testing of coal combustion residuals (CCR) placed in the landfill.
An update of the topographic survey was performed on April 1, 2015 and consisted of an aerial
survey of the entire landfill. Compaction testing of landfilled CCR was performed generally
weekly throughout the year by ESP Associates as a subcontractor to Charah. Inc. Amec Foster
Wheeler reviewed the monthly reports prepared by ESP.
As specified in the current version of the Implementation Plan - Landfill Operations (Rev. 3)
dated August 2013, the compaction requirements differ for the outer shell and the interior landfill
area. The outer shell is defined as material within 100 feet of the outer slopes of the landfill and
this material is to be compacted to a minimum of 95% of the standard Proctor maximum dry
density (ASTM D698). Compaction testing was generally performed once per week in
accordance with the Implementation Plan (Reference 1). Within the area defined as the shell, in-
place density tests were performed at a spacing of approximately 100 feet on center during
each weekly visit. The interior CCR material is to be compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of
the standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D698). For the area defined as the interior,
in-place density tests were performed at a spacing of approximately 150 feet on center during
each weekly visit.

ESP performed a total of 261 in-place density tests for the 373,157 tons of CCR that were
landfilled, for an average rate of 1 in-place density test per 1,400 tons. For the 188 “interior”
density tests performed, the average degree of compaction was 95.2% of standard Proctor
maximum dry density, thus exceeding the required minimum of 90%. For the 73 “shell” density
tests performed, the average degree of compaction was 98.5% of standard Proctor maximum
dry density, thus exceeding the required minimum of 95%.

In accordance with the Implementation Plan - Landfill Operations, at least one standard Proctor
was performed for every 25,000 CY (or tons) of CCR placed. ESP performed 29 Proctors for the
373,157 tons of CCR that were landfilled, for an average rate of 1 Proctor per 13,000 tons.

Variability in coal mineral composition and in the performance of the boiler units results in
variability of the CCR materials and the resulting maximum dry density of material landfilled.
One point Proctor tests are routinely performed in the field to gain an indication of which
laboratory Proctor test corresponds with the material being tested. ESP performed a total of 46
one-point Proctors in 2015.

Monthly reports of in-place density testing and Proctor testing are included in Attachment 2. A
summary of in-place density test results is presented in Table 1 below.

2.3 Construction During 2015
Phase 6A (now referred to as Phase 6) construction was completed in October 2014. Upon
additional examination of record surveys, it was observed that the compacted soil liner in the
northwest corner of Phase 6, which was intended to overlap the existing liner system of Phases
3 and 4, stopped approximately 10 feet short of the intended overlap within an area
approximately 200 feet wide. To achieve full coverage of compacted soil liner within the non-
overlapping area of Phase 6, construction was performed in April and May of 2015. The
compacted soil liner was extended and the overlying layers of the liner system (i.e., primary and
secondary geomembranes and drainage geocomposites) were reinstalled in the affected area.
The construction work and associated quality assurance activities are documented in the
certification report for the project (Reference 3).
2.4 Remaining Capacity
In addition to the recently constructed Phase 6, there is permitted capacity remaining in Phases
1 through 5 as well. Phases 1 through 6 are expected to reach capacity as early as June 2018.
The actual disposal rate depends on plant operation and percentage of byproduct produced that
is beneficially reused in lieu of disposal.
2.5 Incremental Development
The owner’s representative provides incremental Operation and Construction Plans to the
contractor to guide the incremental filling of the landfill. The plans are prepared to avoid
temporary conditions that would be less stable than indicated by calculated factors of safety for
final conditions. The Phase 4H incremental development drawings are provided in Attachment
3. Drawings for Phase 6A, mentioned in Section 2.6, are not included because Phase 6 is not
under the jurisdiction of the North Carolina Dam Safety Law of 1967.
2.6 Operations During 2015
The location of landfill operations is referred to by the designation of the corresponding
incremental operation plan (or lift plan). At the beginning of 2015, landfill operations were being
completed in Phase 4G and beginning in Phase 4H. In June 2015, Phase 4H was completed at
an intermediate elevation of approximately 604 feet, and filling began in Phase 6A. Intermediate

Annual Progress Report for Dam Safety Certificate of Approval March 2016 Page 5 of 7
cover soil was placed on all areas of Phase 4H not yet covered, and an extension of downpipe
DP-5 was installed. Filling continued in Phase 6A for the remainder of 2015, resulting in the
majority of the Phase 6 floor being covered with an initial lift of CCR up to approximately 10 feet
thick. Since early 2011, the Phase 3 area has been at an intermediate elevation of
approximately 604 feet with intermediate soil cover and stormwater management features
installed and maintained. Based on site records, a total of 373,157 tons of CCR were disposed
in the lined landfill during 2015. At an estimated total unit weight of 1.2 tons per cubic yard, the
estimated landfill volume consumed in 2015 was 311,000 cubic yards.

3 Conclusions
As in previous years, a quality assurance program has been implemented for CCR landfilled
during 2015. The intent of the quality assurance program, to verify that slope stability is being
maintained and that the basis for the 2010 Certificate of Approval remains valid, has been
achieved. The results of in-place density testing performed throughout 2015 indicate compliance
with the compaction requirements contained in the Implementation Plan – Landfill Operations
for the Roxboro Industrial Landfill.

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
H 6-7.

Based upon the working area defined for this period, thirty one (31) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated February 2, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Three (3) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
January 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of January 1 through January 31,
2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed thirty-one (31)
field density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – January 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill February 2, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95
percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill shell and
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior.

Please note that on January 28, 2015, the result of our one-point Standard Proctor field test of ash
sample material obtained near the location of Test #102 indicated an interpreted maximum dry
density of 69.7 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) based on the Standard Proctor laboratory test (S-11)
previously performed by ESP. This interpreted maximum dry density was anticipated to be used for
the remainder of our tests on that date. The results of our subsequent field nuclear gauge density
tests and laboratory moisture content testing on that date resulted in calculated in-place dry densities
ranging from 68.6 to 76.0 pcf indicating compaction ranging from 98 to 109 percent of the materials
interpreted maximum dry density. Variability of the in-place ash materials indicating a change in
field conditions was not apparent until the results of the laboratory moisture contents were available.
The highest maximum dry density of ESP’s laboratory Standard Proctor testing was utilized for the
remainder of the tests as shown on the attached “Nuclear Gauge Test Report” indicating the ash
materials were compacted to 95 to 105 percent. Further analyzing the results and utilizing historic
Standard Proctor test results performed by others, the material represented by Test Nos. 103 to 110
may be better represented by Geotechnics Proctor 602-04-01 which had a maximum dry density of
76.6 pcf. If this Standard Proctor result is used to evaluate the results of ESP’s testing, it indicates
the material represented by Test Nos. 103 to 110 is compacted to 90 to 99 percent of the material’s
maximum dry density which is more consistent with the results of our previous testing at this site.

During this period, ESP obtained four (3) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations

and Northing/Easting coordinates were provided by Charah field personnel at the time of testing
with the exception of the testing on January 6, 2015 when locations were not available as the GPS
system at the site was not functioning. The coordinates and elevations of our other test dates during
this period are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

ESP appreciates the opportunity to be of service to you. If you should have any questions or need
additional information, please feel free to contact us at your convenience.
Sincerely,

ESP Associates, P.A.

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
H 6-7.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, thirty one (31) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated March 3, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Three (3) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
February 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of February 1 through February
28, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed thirty-one (31)
field density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – February 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill March 3, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95
percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill shell and
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior.

During this period, ESP obtained three (3) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were provided by Charah field personnel at the time of testing.
The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period are shown on the attached
“Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

ESP appreciates the opportunity to be of service to you. If you should have any questions or need
additional information, please feel free to contact us at your convenience.
Sincerely,

ESP Associates, P.A.

**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
H 6-8.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, fifty three (53) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

* Shell Test Location

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated April 2, 2015 attached to this report.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Four (4) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
March 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of March 1 through March 31,
2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed fifty-three field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – March 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill April 2, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95
percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill shell and
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior.

During this period, ESP obtained four (4) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were provided by Charah field personnel at the time of testing.
The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period are shown on the attached
“Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

ESP appreciates the opportunity to be of service to you. If you should have any questions or need
additional information, please feel free to contact us at your convenience.
Sincerely,

ESP Associates, P.A.

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
H 7-8.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, eleven (11) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated May 1, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Two (2) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
April 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of April 1 through April 30, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed eleven (11) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. The number
of tests during this reporting period was reduced with respect to previous reporting periods due to
the relatively low amount of ash placed. In addition, as reported by Charah personnel, ash material
was not placed within the shell area during this reporting period following our testing on April 9,
2015. Test locations were selected based on placement of ash each week as reported to ESP by on-
site Charah personnel. As a result of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard

Proctor values are reference points performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698
that determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The
one-point data are shown on the attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory
moisture content testing (ASTM D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test
and are the reported moisture values on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests
indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry
density within the landfill shell and equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard
Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill interior.

During this period, ESP obtained two (2) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

Monthly Activity Report May 2015

Roxboro Steam Station
Landfill Operations

Landfill operations at Roxboro Steam Station have been concentrated with waste placement in
the Industrial Landfill, Phase 4/5 for this reporting period.

Please reference the attached tonnage tracking spreadsheet for daily tonnage placement and
materials accepted. A brief snapshot of waste placement activities include:

**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sector
H-8.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, twenty-one (21) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

* Shell Test Location

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated June 1, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Two (2) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
May 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of May 1 through May 31, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed twenty-one (21)
field density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As reported
by Charah personnel, ash material was not placed within the shell area during this reporting period
prior to our testing on May 15, 2015. As a result of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-
point standard Proctor values are reference points performed in general accordance with portions of
ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the
material tested. The one-point data are shown on the attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition,
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – May 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305

oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM D2216) was performed for each field nuclear
density gauge test and are the reported moisture values on the attached “Nuclear Density Test
Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95 percent of the materials Standard
Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill shell and equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the
materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill interior.

During this period, ESP obtained two (2) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sector
H-8, I-10, and J-10.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, twenty (20) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated July 1, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Three (3) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
June 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of June 1 through June 30, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed twenty (20) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – June 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill July 1, 2015

on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95
percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill shell and
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior.

During this period, ESP obtained three (3) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

*Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period
Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid
sector I-10-11, and J-10-11, K-11, L-11-12, and M-10-12.

Based upon the working area defined for this period, thirty eight (38) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated August 3, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Three (3) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
July 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of July 1 through July 31, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed thirty-eight (38)
field density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values

on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding 95
percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the landfill shell and
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior.

During this period, ESP obtained three (3) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
K-10, K-11, L-10, L-11, M-10, and M-11.

Based upon the working area defined for this period, sixteen (16) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated September 1, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Two (2) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction).

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
August 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of August 1 through August 31,
2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed sixteen (16) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – August 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill September 1, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior. Please note that ash material was not placed within the shell area during this
reporting period.

During this period, ESP obtained two (2) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
L-10, M-10, and M-11.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, twenty (20) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

* Shell Test Location

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated October 2, 2015 attached to this report.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]
Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Three (3) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.
In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place
density (compaction). One point field test data is provided on pages 13-14 of the ESP
compaction report date October 2, 2015 (attached).
Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
September 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of September 1 through
September 30, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed twenty (20) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – September 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill October 2, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior. Please note that ash material was not placed within the shell area during this
reporting period.

During this period, ESP obtained three (3) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

Monthly Activity Report October 2015

Roxboro Steam Station
Landfill Operations

Landfill operations at Roxboro Steam Station have been concentrated with waste placement in
the Industrial Landfill, Phase 6 for this reporting period.

Please reference the attached tonnage tracking spreadsheet for daily tonnage placement and
materials accepted. A brief snapshot of waste placement activities include:

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the landfill facility at the Roxboro
Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet on center
on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is measured at
100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill shell is
required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
J-10, K-10, M-10, and M-11.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, thirteen (13) field density tests were
performed on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for
each test site are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at
elevations as presented below:

* Shell Test Location

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated November 3, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. Two (2) bulk samples of ash material were collected for laboratory Standard Proctor

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO
requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction) One point field test data is provided on page 10 of the ESP compaction report date
November 3, 2015 (attached).

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
October 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of October 1 through October 31,
2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed thirteen (13) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – October 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill November 3, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior. Please note that ash material was not placed within the shell area during this
reporting period.

During this period, ESP obtained two (2) bulk samples of ash material and transported them to our
office and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM
D698). The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor
moisture/density relationships performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field
density tests performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations
and Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

ESP appreciates the opportunity to be of service to you. If you should have any questions or need
additional information, please feel free to contact us at your convenience.

Sincerely,
ESP Associates, P.A.

Monthly Activity Report November 2015

Roxboro Steam Station
Landfill Operations

Landfill operations at Roxboro Steam Station have been concentrated with waste placement in
the Industrial Landfill, Phase 6 for this reporting period.

Please reference the attached tonnage tracking spreadsheet for daily tonnage placement and
materials accepted. A brief snapshot of waste placement activities include:

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the Industrial landfill facility at the
Roxboro Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet
on center on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is
measured at 100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill
shell is required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sectors
L-10, M-10, and M-11.

12601 Plantside Drive | Louisville, Kentucky 40299 |Phone: [phone] | Fax: [phone]

Based upon the working area defined for this period, five (5) field density tests were performed
on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for each test site
are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at elevations as
presented below:

Test
ID
Location Elevation Test
ID
Location Elevation
334 Cell M-10 549.0 337 Cell L-10 545.2
335 Cell M-11 548.0 338 Cell M-11 543.4
336 Cell L-10 545.5
* Shell Test Location

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated December 1, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. One (1) bulk sample of ash material was collected for laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-
density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction) One point field test data is provided on pages 9-11 of the ESP compaction report
dated December 1, 2015 (attached).

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
November 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of November 1 through November
30, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed five (5) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – November 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill December 1, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior. Please note that ash material was not placed within the shell area during this
reporting period. In addition, no tests were requested the week of November 16 as reportedly three
units were offline at the time.

During this period, ESP obtained one (1) bulk sample of ash material and transported it to our office
and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698).
The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor moisture/density
relationship test performed on the ash material and/or used to evaluate the field density tests
performed during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations and
Northing/Easting coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing
equipment provided by Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period
are shown on the attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.

Monthly Activity Report December 2015

Roxboro Steam Station
Landfill Operations

Landfill operations at Roxboro Steam Station have been concentrated with waste placement in
the Industrial Landfill, Phase 6 for this reporting period.

Please reference the attached tonnage tracking spreadsheet for daily tonnage placement and
materials accepted. A brief snapshot of waste placement activities include:

* Material from Mayo is no longer being placed in the Roxboro ILF
**Other materials included Decant waste for this reporting period

Compaction testing was performed on waste placed within the Industrial landfill facility at the
Roxboro Steam Station (RSS) as required. Testing is required at an interval of 1 test per 100 feet
on center on a weekly basis at the RSS Industrial Landfill. The outer shell of the landfill unit is
measured at 100 feet off the outside top of slope and the ash material placed within the landfill
shell is required to meet 95% of the Standard Proctor. The interior ash material is required to be
compacted to meet a minimum of 90% of the Standard Proctor and may be tested at a spacing
of approximately 150 feet on center. The working area for this period was defined as grid sector
N-10.

Based upon the working area defined for this period, two (2) field density tests were performed
on materials placed in the Industrial Landfill. Northing and Easting coordinates for each test site
are provided in the attached compaction test report. Tests were completed at elevations as
presented below:

Test
ID
Location Elevation Test
ID
Location Elevation
339* Cell N-10 544.5 340 Cell N-10 542.7
* Shell Test Location

All tests confirmed the compaction requirement of at least 90% of the materials Standard Proctor
maximum dry density with moisture content of +/- 5% of the materials optimum moisture
content or higher as required by the PTO conditions. Reference the compaction report from ESP
for further details, dated December 31, 2015 attached to this report.

Proctors are required to be tested 1 per 25,000 cubic yards (or tons)1 for the landfill facility at
RSS. One (1) bulk sample of ash material was collected for laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-
density relationship testing (ASTM D698) for this period thus meeting the PTO requirements.

In addition, one-point field tests (check plugs) are performed during every compaction testing
event to ensure the proper Proctor is being applied to determine the material’s in-place density
(compaction) One point field test data is provided on page 7 of the ESP compaction report dated
December 31, 2015 (attached).

1 Historic density ratios for ash placement indicate 1 cubic yard per ton is a conservative approach to determining
compaction test frequencies.

Dust control was provided throughout the monthly operations using water from the two onsite
water trucks. We maintain the capability of adding chemical dust suppressants (Eco-Green
products) as approved by Duke. No issues were noted with operational compliance at the time
of this report. All operational activities have been found to be compliant with the permitted
operations plans for each of the landfills at the Roxboro Steam Station.

Attention: Mr. Norman Divers
Reference: FIELD DENSITY AND LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES
December 2015
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill Semora, North Carolina ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
NC PE Firm C-0587

Dear Mr. Divers: ESP Associates, P.A. (ESP), is providing field density and laboratory testing services of ash placed
in landfill cells on a part-time, on call basis at the referenced project. This letter summarizes the
field density testing and laboratory testing services for the period of December 1 through December
31, 2015.

During this reporting period, an ESP representative visited the site and performed two (2) field
density tests on ash placed within the landfill using a nuclear density gauge (ASTM D6938), in
conjunction with a one-point Standard Proctor field test for each day’s density testing. As a result
of inherent variability of fill materials, the one-point standard Proctor values are reference points
performed in general accordance with portions of ASTM D698 that determine the maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content for the material tested. The one-point data are shown on the
attached “One Point Plot” sheet. In addition, oven laboratory moisture content testing (ASTM
Field Density and Laboratory Testing Services – December 2015 ESP Project No. E4-BP21.305
Duke Energy – Roxboro Steam Station Ash Landfill December 31, 2015
2
D2216) was performed for each field nuclear density gauge test and are the reported moisture values
on the attached “Nuclear Density Test Report”. All tests indicate densities equaling or exceeding
equaling or exceeding 90 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum dry density within the
landfill interior and equaling or exceeding 95 percent of the materials Standard Proctor maximum
dry density within the landfill shell. Please note that with the exception of the week ending
December 13, 2015, weekly testing was not requested this month as Charah reported units were
offline and no ash was hauled.

During this period, ESP obtained one (1) bulk sample of ash material and transported it to our office
and performed laboratory Standard Proctor moisture-density relationship testing (ASTM D698).
The results of the field density tests along with the laboratory Standard Proctor moisture/density
relationship test performed on the ash material and used to evaluate the field density tests performed
during this period are enclosed for your review. As requested, elevations and Northing/Easting
coordinates were obtained by ESP personnel at the time of testing utilizing equipment provided by
Charah. The coordinates and elevations of test locations during this period are shown on the
attached “Roxboro Ash Density Test Locations” sheet.
