Status
Corrected (No NOV)
Status Detail
The landfill has been inspected the morning of 11-21-14, and no unusual odors were observed in the Timbercrest area at that time. A small plume of gas/steam was observed rising out of the side slope of the current cell where Al dross waste is landfilled.
A follow up investigation was conducted on the morning of 11-25-14. No odor was observed in the Timbercrest area at that time. At the landfill the area where gas/steam emissions had previously been observed was not active. Inspection of the tarp used for daily cover in this area did reveal there were tears in the tarp. It is possible the gas/steam emissions observed were related to water infiltration through tears in the tarp resulting in a chemical reaction. The landfill manager was instructed to repair or replace all damaged tarps.
