NARRATIVE INSPECTION REPORT DOCUMENT
Date of Inspection
: 02/28/2007
Inspector : Joy Bliton
Site Code : 1418210001
County : Ogle
Site Name : Davis Junction Landfill
Time: 8:55 a.m. - 10:20 a.m.
General Remarks
I arrived at the Davis Junction landfill at 8
:55 a .m
. Jim Hitzeroth arrived at 9 :26 a.m. and we
started our inspection of the site .
I had called Jim on February 23, 2007 to set up an appointment for an inspection on February 28,
2007
. During that phone conversation, I informed him that we had not received a 2005 Annual
Report from them. He said that he would send me a copy
. At our inspection on February 28,
2007, Jim said that Weever Boos consultants were going to Fed Ex a copy to me and it has
probably already been sent.
We drove over to the leachate tanks
. Leachate was being pumped from the #2 tank to the tanker
truck. Jim and I then walked onto the landfill
. We stopped at various extraction wells
. Some of
the wells will need well boot repairs as the boots have settled
. One extraction well had a vacuum
leak and will need to be repaired
.
We walked along, stopping at various extraction wells
. We noted ponded water south of EW
#30 and northwest of EW #18
. These low areas will need to be filled to facilitate drainage, as
required by the permit and post closure care plan
. According to 35 Illinois Administrative Code,
Section 811
.322(b), all slopes shall be designed to drain run off away from the cover and which
prevents ponding
. No standing water shall be allowed anywhere in or on the unit
.
By March 30 of each year, annual inspections shall be conducted of the vegetative cover until
settling has stopped and there are no eroded or scoured areas
. Any rills, gullies, crevices, eroded
and scoured drainage channels, holes, depressions created by settling, failed or eroded vegetation
in excess of 100 square feet cumulatively must then be repaired
.
I looked at two ground water monitoring wells
. They were only labeled with the Applicant's
designation
: # 179D and # 1711
. The Illinois EPA designations for these two wells are G79D and
G71 M, respectively. The caps were on and padlocked
. The gas probe # 09 also had a cap on and
was padlocked .
We walked back to the vehicles
. I left the site at 10 :20 a
.m.
I had contacted the IEPA a number of times during February and early March to discuss whether
they had received the Davis Junction Landfill, 2005 Annual Report. They checked their records
and were unable to locate it.
I received a copy of the 2005 Annual Report from Weever Boos Consultants on March 9, 2007
.
The cover letter was missing
. I called Jim Hitzeroth on March 12, 2007 . I told him that I
received a copy of the 2005 Annual Report but the dated cover letter was omitted
. I asked him if
he knew when it was submitted . He said he did not know . He would check on it
. I then
received a call from Beth Steinhour of Weever Boos Consultants who said that the report was
just submitted to the IEPA last week
. She said it had been completed but was never submitted .
On March 16, 2007, the OCSWMD received from Weever Boos Consultants the cover letter for
the 2005 Annual Report . The letter was not dated .
On April 2, 2007, the OCSWMD received the IEPA date-stamped cover letter from the IEPA
(dated March 7, 2007) . This confirms the 2005 Annual Report was not received by the IEPA by
the required date of May 1, 2006 .
