Engineering Surveying Environmental Services <br />Draper Aden Associates <br />Section Seven <br />Approach and Understanding <br />38 <br />Our approach to the environmental monitoring and control programs at OCSWM landfills has been, and <br />continues to be, based on historical knowledge of conditions at the facility, assessment of data derived from the <br />groundwater monitoring program, and economic conditions. <br />For example, the concentrations of certain regulated constituents in groundwater, in certain monitoring wells <br />at the facility, exceed their respective “Groundwater Protection Standards.” As a result, NCDEQ required that the <br />North landfill enter a Groundwater Corrective Action program. During the several years in which the facility has <br />been in Corrective Action, our strategy for managing the program has been based on two key concepts: (1) the <br />quality of groundwater underlying the landfill represents negligible risk to human health and (2) the economic <br />recession of the last several years has placed severe constraints on the budgets of local governments. For these <br />reasons, our strategy has been to expend only enough effort on Corrective Action to prevent NCDEQ from <br />pressing the OCSWM to embark on a more aggressive program of groundwater remediation. <br />Another example is our Alternate Source Demonstrations (ASDs) that we have prepared on behalf of OCSWM. <br />Draper Aden Associates has prepared ASDs for arsenic, cobalt, lead, selenium, and vanadium, each of which was <br />subsequently approved by NCDEQ. ASDs are one of the available regulatory mechanisms to address “suspect” <br />groundwater exceedances over site-specific background levels or groundwater protection standards. As a <br />results, our successful demonstrations that sources other than the landfill have caused the apparent exceedance <br />have allowed OCSWM to avoid unnecessary escalation in the groundwater monitoring program as they pertain <br />to arsenic, cobalt, lead, selenium, and vanadium. <br />Below is a brief overview of our experience, as a firm, specifically working on OCSWM environmental <br />management programs. <br />Orange County Regional Landfill: North (Closed) Facility <br />Corrective Action Program (background). In a letter from Mr. Gayle Wilson (OCSWM) to Mr. Ervin Lane <br />(NCDEQ; dated May 28, 2009), OCSWM accepted the corrective measures remedies presented in the ACM report <br />(prepared by Draper Aden Associates; submitted October, 2008). The selected remedies include: monitored <br />natural attenuation (MNA), enhanced bioremediation, direct oxidation. <br />In a letter from Mr. Ervin Lane to Mr. Mike Meagher (OCSWM; dated September 11, 2009), NCDEQ approved the <br />Groundwater Corrective Action Permit Modification Application. OCSWM implemented the following measures <br />at the facility: institutional controls, engineering controls. In order to accelerate the remediation schedule, <br />Draper Aden Associates assisted OCSWM in advancing from monitored natural attenuation to the more active <br />components of the primary (phase 1) remedy: direct oxidation, enhanced biodegradation. <br />Groundwater Injection Program - Hydrogeochemical Assessment. On behalf of OCSWM, Draper Aden <br />Associates prepared an application to renew a permit to inject potassium permanganate into the groundwater <br />in selected areas of the North landfill. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 09434BEC-1F7E-41E5-A9D1-4CA5D7ECE339DocuSign Envelope ID: 41BC5C93-0D4F-4535-B939-248B032E3585
