Five solid <br /> waste landfills and two other permitted solid waste facilities are located within one mile of the <br /> subject property. This property is adjacent to the closed Orange County MSW and construction and <br /> demolition landfills (6801-MSWLF-1982, 6801-CDLF-1993, 6801-MSWLF). Closed landfills have the <br /> potential to release contaminants into the environment and could affect groundwater. Additional <br /> information about these facilities can be found at the following links: 6801-CDLF-1993 6801- <br /> MSWLF-1982 6801-MSWLF 6801-MSWLF-1993 6804-CDLF-2005 6801-HHW-2003 6806-HHW- <br /> 2018 Otherwise, the review has been completed and has found no adverse impact on the <br /> surrounding community and likewise knows of no situations in the community, which would affect <br /> this project from a solid waste perspective. <br /> During the project, every feasible effort should be made to minimize the generation of waste, to <br /> recycle materials for which viable markets exist, and to use recycled products and materials in the <br /> development of this project where suitable. Any waste generated by this project that cannot be <br /> beneficially reused or recycled must be disposed of at a solid waste management facility approved <br /> to manage the respective waste type.The Section strongly recommends that any contractors are <br /> required to provide proof of proper disposal for all waste generated as part of the project. A list of <br /> permitted solid waste management facilities is available on the Solid Waste Section portal site at: <br /> https://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/waste-management/solid-waste-section/solid-waste-perm itted- <br /> facility-information-and-guidance/solid-waste-facility-lists <br /> Please contact Chuck Kirchner, Environmental Senior Specialist,for any questions regarding solid <br /> waste management for this project.
