Landfill Inspection Report Narrative
Robert Mileur and Jay Winters representing the Agency inspected this site on April 21,
2005. The inspection consisted of a records check at the scale house followed by an
inspection of the landfill by walking and photographing the site
.
Inspection Findings
We arrived at the site at around 9:20am and met with Jackie Burlison who operates the
scale house. We reviewed the load check sheets, leachate records, daily cover log, and
landfill inspection checklist at that time . Manifest for special waste were checked as well
and it was noted that the facility has not taken any special waste since my last inspection
on December 16,2005 . Hauling records indicated that 71,906 gallons of leachate was
hauled the month of March . The rest of the records were in order and I did not see any
other discrepancies at that time .
Jay Winters and I then drove to the wheel wash and leachate collection tank area of the
landfill. We visually checked the condition of both structures and they appeared to be in
good condition at the time of the inspection
.
We then traveled to the active face of cell #1 and observed conditions, as they existed at
that time. We noted that, upon our arrival at 9 :20am to the landfill, we could see that the
trash from the previous day had not been covered . When we talked with Rick Lane up at
the active face, he told us that their only dirt hauling vehicle had broken down on the
previous day and that was the reason the trash was not covered . The landfill did have
their truck back in service at that time and had just started hauling dirt to cover the trash
.
Mr. Lane also told us that they were completely out of space in cell #1 and desperately
needed permit approval to start using cell #2. We could see by the amount of space they
had to work with on top and the side slopes that, they were close to running out of room
.
We did check the side slopes with a hand held slope meter and found a range of 2 :1 to 3 :1
on both the south and west facing slopes. The North Slope, which is a finished slope, did
meet the 3:1 slope as indicated in their permit. The east slope angle was good until you
got up to the access road which had a much steeper slope than the rest of the east side
.

 
There was very little wind at the time of inspection. The litter fences were sitting on the
east side of the active face and were located down grade . We did observe trash on the
north side of cell #1 as well as the south and east drainage ditches . The litter problem
seems to be an on going problem at the landfill
.
We did walk the perimeter of cell #1 and did not observe any leachate seeps at that time
.
We then returned to there scale house and met briefly with Rick Lane before exiting the
site .
We concluded our inspection at around 10:30am
