We considered the possibility that it may be desirable to provide C &D disposal capacity on the same property, in order to conserve airspace in the lined disposal unit, and avoid the cost of lining the C &D disposal area. 8.1 Siting Requirements The siting requirements for a MSW landfill are provided in the Solid Waste Management Rules, Section .1600. The siting criteria are substantially the same as those listed in Section 4.0 of this report. 8.2 Permitting Requirements The permitting requirements for a MSWLF are provided in the Solid Waste Management Rules, Section .1600. The permitting process is generally a three -stage process, with the Site Study being the first portion. The Site Study is intended to address the entire landfill site, while the second and third stages of permitting must be repeated for each five -year phase of the landfill. Components of the Site Study are as follows: • Local Characterization Study • Regional Characterization Study • Site Hydrogeologic Report • Location Restrictions • Local Government Approvals • Facility Plan The second stage of permitting is the Application for Permit to Construct, comprised of the following components (for a five year phase): • Engineering Plan • Design Hydrogeologic Report • Construction Quality Assurance Plan • Operation Plan • Monitoring Plan • Closure and Post - Closure Plan The third stage of permitting would involve submitting the necessary documentation to indicate that the facility had been constructed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, resulting in a Permit to Operate the landfill. 8.3 Conceptual MSWLF Design Plan Conceptual design plans for a MSWLF are based on digitized USGS topography and the available Study of Solid Waste Management Options JOYCE ENGINEERING, INC. for the Greene and Neville Tracts February 4, 1998 Orange County, North Carolina 12
