Mr. Himanshu Mehta 11 July 2008 Page 3 design and permit the closure system for the C &D placement on Segment 1 slopes in order to meet the closure requirements of the solid waste regulations . In June 2006 , FDEP issued the SWDD with a permit for the vertical expansion that includes the construction of a liner system over the top deck of Segment 1 and raising the final elevation of the entire lined area of the Class I landfill to elevation 185 ft NGVD (Permit Modification No . 5031 -0128769- 012) . This additional permitted capacity extends the life of the Class I landfill until January 2011 , based on projected waste acceptance rates . As previously discussed, the current FDEP permits for C&D placement on Segment 1 with 5 percent top deck slopes is projected to reach final grades in March 2009 before the Class I landfill vertical expansion can be constructed . However, the vertical expansion represents the next phase of the scheduled capacity additions to the Class I landfill . Its projected delay due to the decline in the deliveries of C&D debris for landfill disposal , places it on the critical path of the capacity addition schedule . Geosyntec prepared a Minor Modification Permit Application for the reduction in slope of the overlay liner on top of Segment 1 to expedite construction of the vertical expansion . The application is currently on file with the FDEP and is under review . Also , Geosyntec has begun the construction procurement services for the vertical expansion . On 10 April 2008 , an inspection conducted by the FDEP at the IRCL noted the seepage of leachate from the south slope of the Class I landfill . Subsequent inspections also discovered leachate seepage on the north slope of Segment 2 . In response to the FDEP ' s concerns, Waste Management (WM) informed the FDEP that a final cap would be constructed following the completion of the north slope of Segment 2 to El . 95 ft NGVD . On 19 June 2008 , the SWDD requested , via email , that Geosyntec submit a proposal to provide engineering services for the construction of the partial closure of the north and south slopes of Segment 2 and the Infill Area to be executed concurrently with the construction of the vertical expansion . This proposal describes services to be provided in fulfillment of that request . PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK This project includes professional engineering services for design, permitting, and construction of the partial closure of the north and south slopes of the Infill and Segment 2 of the Class I landfill at the IRCL facility. The scope of work is based on the requirements of Chapter 62 - 701 , Florida Administrative Code ( FAC ) and Geosyntec ' s understanding of the project based on information provided by the SWDD .
