SITE SUMMARY

1.0 SITE CONDITIONS

This section discusses the observed conditions on the Site, as defined as the properties (Tax

Parcels #’s 653704649865 and 653704649865) on which the Disposal Area is located. The

Disposal Area is defined as the area observed or reported to have been used for waste placement

or burial. The boundary (perimeter) of this area is the observed limit of waste material based on

field observations and the inferred limit based on a review of historical aerial photographs. The

site visit was conducted on October 13, 2009. Photographs illustrating site conditions are

included in Appendix D.

The Site is located in Stanly County, near Albemarle, NC. Driving directions to the Site from the

intersection of NC-138 and NC-24/27 Bypass are as follows:

1. Drive west on NC-24/27 Bypass for about ¾ mile.

2. Turn left onto Coble Avenue and drive to the security gate of the City of Albemarle

Disposal Facility.

3. The City of Albemarle Dump is located beyond the security gate along Long Lake Creek.

1.1 On-site Structures

Buildings associated with the City of Albemarle Sewage Disposal Facility are located on the

Site. The Facility consists of waste ponds, paved roads, two buildings, and numerous storage

sheds. An unused steel storage tank used for polymer is located on the southeastern part of the

Disposal Area, and a sludge dispenser pipe used to release waste into trucks is located on the

central part of the Disposal Area.

1.2 Current Site Usage

According to Raymond Allen, Albemarle City Manager, the Site is used as the Sewage Disposal

Facility for the City of Albemarle. The Utilities Department uses the northwestern part of the

Disposal Area to store wood telephone poles.

1.3 On-Site Water Supply Wells and Intakes

No on-site water supply wells were observed on the Site during the site visit. A water meter and

fire hydrants were observed on the Site during the site visit.

1.4 Surface Water Features

Poplin Creek flows from north to south along the southeastern boundary of the Disposal Area.

Long Lake Creek flows from northwest to south along the southwestern boundary of the

Disposal Area. Long Lake Creek and Poplin Creek were about 25 feet wide with slow flowing

clear water. Both creeks flowed on exposed boulders. Some disposal material was observed in

the stream beds including tires, water heaters, glass, and concrete. A drainage ditch was observed

along the northern boundary of the Disposal Area. The drainage ditch was dry with exposed

disposal material in the southern drainage ditch bank. Observed disposal material included glass,

plastic, clothing, tires, and 55-gallon drums.

1.5 Disposal Area

Access to the Disposal Area is from Coble Avenue and through a security gate with key pad

(Photo 1). The Disposal Area occupies 7.6 acres based on the estimated Disposal Area perimeter

shown on Figures 1 through 3.

The Disposal Area generally slopes to the southwest. A comparison of the topography from the

1978 USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle map (10 foot contours) with the 2005

Page 7: SITE SUMMARY REPORT City of Albemarle Dump NONCD 0000751 Stanly County · PDF file23-11-2009 · SITE SUMMARY REPORT City of Albemarle Dump NONCD 0000751 Stanly County Senate Bill

topographic map from NCDOT GIS Branch (20 foot contours) indicates that up to about 10 feet

of cut material may have been removed from the northwestern part of the Disposal Area. The

removed cut material is estimated based on a comparison of topographic maps of different

vintages constructed using different methods. The reported years of operation were from the

early to mid 1930’s to 1972, so the 1978 USGS map (based on 1977 aerial photographs) may

have represented the land surface at or near the end of the disposal period. Differences between

elevations on the maps may reflect actual elevation changes or may be apparent differences due

to the different map making methods. The elevation comparisons are approximate and

differences in scale and methods of mapping are not sufficient to evaluate some changes in

topography.

GPS coordinates were taken of the Disposal Area perimeter. The approximate Disposal Area

perimeter is illustrated on the figures and on aerial photographs in Appendix E. A table of GPS

coordinates for the Site entrance and the Site perimeter is presented in Table 1. The Disposal

Area perimeter location is approximate and is based on visual observations made at the time of

the site visit and interpretation of aerial photographs. Figures 4 and 5 show LiDAR shaded relief

superimposed on the Disposal Area.

1.6 Disposal Area Conditions

The Disposal Area was covered with a paved road, grass, and deciduous trees of two to four feet

in diameter. Disposal material was observed along the stream banks of Poplin Creek along the

southeastern boundary of the Disposal Area and Long Lake Creek along the southwestern

boundary of the Disposal Area. The observed disposal material along the stream banks included

concrete, corrugated metal, glass, tires, and water heaters. Exposed disposal material was also

observed along the northern boundary of the Disposal Area which included 55-gallon drums,

glass, plastic, tires, clothing, asphalt, concrete, and white goods. The northwestern part of the

Disposal Area was covered with dirt and stacked wooden telephone poles and the southeastern

part of the Disposal Area was covered with grass.

The observed Disposal Area was on two tax parcels, Parcel Numbers 653704649865 and

653704649865. The perimeter of the Disposal Area was visually evident with the majority of the

Disposal Area on Parcel No. 653704649865. The southeastern perimeter of the Disposal Area

extended onto Parcel No. 653704649865.

The southeastern and southwestern boundaries of the Disposal Area are located within the 100

year flood zone. No notable erosion, depressions or hummocky topography, offensive odors

associated with the old landfill, stained or discolored soils, or slope failures were observed

during the site visit.

1.7 Evidence of Human Activity

Activities associated with the operation of the Sewage Disposal Facility were observed during

the site visit.

1.8 Potential Landfill Gas Migration Pathways

Potential gas migration pathways observed on the Disposal Area included an underground pipe

from the steel storage tank used for polymer to Long Lake Creek, underground pipes from the

sewage disposal facility to the sludge dispenser pipe, and a sewer line along the southwestern

side of the Disposal Area. The pipeline locations to the steel storage tank and sludge dispenser

were not observed. The sewer line right-of-way and manholes were observed.

Potential gas migration pathways observed on the Site included buildings associated with the

sewage disposal facility, and underground sewer and water lines.

1.9 Physical Barriers

Site access is provided by Coble Avenue. Site access for vehicles is blocked by a security gate at

the entrance to the Sewage Disposal Facility. Access to the northern part of the Disposal Area is

October 9, 2009 Mr. Raymond Allen City Manager of Albemarle, NC 157 North Second Street Albemarle, NC 28001 Dear Mr. Allen: The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) has hired Schnabel Engineering to assess old unlined landfills in several North Carolina counties. This project consists of researching the past use and current conditions of hundreds of sites. The City’s property that currently is utilized as the sewer plant has been identified as a potential location of one of these old unlined landfills. We would like to visit your property and ask questions related to the history of the property to help prepare a report for the NCDENR. During the site visit our staff would walk over the property to observe the current conditions. No sampling or digging would be performed. After our site visit, we will prepare a report and submit it to NCDENR. During the next few days one of our staff will be calling you to answer any questions you might have and to request permission to visit your property. If you have questions prior to our call, feel free to call me at the phone number listed below. If you call after business hours or during the weekend, please leave me a message. If you have general questions about the program you may also contact the NCDENR staff listed on the attached letter. Thank you for your assistance.

Sincerely,

Misti S. Benchabbat Project Scientist Daytime phone: 919-847-2575
