B-13 SELECTION PROCESS
Indian River County's Request for Proposal evaluation process was created for the purpose of
selecting contractors in a fair and uniform manner, that those selected for work are qualified and
experienced in operating and constructing the facilities desired and to provide every qualified
contractor an equal opportunity to be considered for providing services for the Project.
The annual Contract Operations price (Base Bid Item No. 1) and the Total Construction price
(Base Bid Item No. 2) will be evaluated by determining the lowest Present Worth and will be
calculated as follows:
• Assume CPI - 3% annually
• Assume Discount Rate - 6.41% annually
• The Present Worth of each Proposer will be the sum of:
Year 1: Base Bid Item No. 1 = $
Year 2: 0.939761 x (1+[0.75 x 0.03]) x Base Bid Item No. 1 = $
Year 3: 0.883151 x (1+[0.75 x 0.03])2 x Base Bid Item No. 1 = $
Year 4: 0.829951 x (1+[0.75 x 0.03])3 x Base Bid Item No. 1 = $
Year 5: 0.779956 x (1+[0.75 x 0.03])4x Base Bid Item No. 1 = $
Construction Capital Cost - Bid Item No. 2 = $
Total Present Worth of Operations for 5 years
and Construction Capital Cost = $
The Selection Committee shall evaluate the proposals using the rating scale below. The rating
scale consists of 0-1.0 by tenths of a point. The rating will be multiplied by the weighted factor

Alternate Bid Item No. 2
Alternate Bid Item No. 2 is for transfer of Indian River County's Class I Municipal Solid Waste
for disposal at Waste Management's Central Disposal Sanitary Landfill, in Broward County,
Florida.
THE UNDERSIGNED PROPONENT, having familiarized himself with the disposal
requirements of the County, provides this disposal alternative for the County's consideration,
consisting of the permitting and construction of a 500 tons per day capacity transfer station, to
be located on County owned property at the Indian River County Landfill, with loading and
transportation of Class I municipal solid waste to Waste Management's Central Disposal
Sanitary Landfill, located in Northern Broward County, Florida. WMIF hereby agrees for the
Alternate Bid Item No. 2 to perform all Work, including the assumption of all obligations, duties
and responsibilities necessary for the completion of a negotiated mutually agreeable Contract
and the furnishing of all materials and equipment required to be incorporated in and form a
permanent part of the Work; tools, equipment, supplies, transportation, facilities, labor,
superintendence, and services required to perform the Work (Transfer Station and disposal); and
Bonds, insurance and submittals, reimbursement of unamortized capital and other similar and
usual terms and conditions alt as indicated or specified in such Contract to be performed or

Alternate Bid
Item No. 2 Forty-four (Dollars and) Ninety-five (Cents)

County Transfer Station, at a minimum of 80,000 tons per year.
Indian River County will maintain responsibility for all other operations at the Indian River
County Landfill.
Alternate Bid Item No. 3
Alternate Bid Item No. 3 is for construction of a modified liner design for Class I Infill segment
lateral and vertical expansion, consisting of a single layer of geosynthetic clay liner (Bentofixo or
equivalent) to replace the current 2 feet of 104 cm/sec clay, which will provide better hydraulic
performance than the current design. In addition, this alternative will provide an increased
benefit by making available an additional 2 feet of disposal airspace within the infill footprint.
Waste Management proposes this alternative liner design as a "to be negotiated" cost savings to
"Total Base Bid Item No. 2". This Alternate Bid Item No. 3 will require a modified Florida
Department of Environmental Protection Construction Permit. WMIF estimates the
construction cost savings for this modified liner design to be approximately S200 000.00.
Further technical details on WMIF's Alternate Bid Item No. 2 (Transfer Station) and Alternate
Bid Item No. 3 (Bentofix® clay liner) are contained in our Class I Landfill Infill Segments I & II
RFP response. If accepted, the negotiated cost savings would be deducted from the infill
construction price provided in Base Bid Item No. 2. All other conditions set forth in Base Bid
Item No. 2 will apply.

or Sureties of said bond. All extra work shall be executed under conditions of the
original Agreement.
b. Except in an emergency endangering life or property, NO CHANGE SHALL BE MADE
BY THE CONTRACTOR EXCEPT UPON WRITTEN ORDER FROM THE
DIRECTOR AUTHORIZING SUCH CHANGE, AND NO CLAIM FOR

ARTICLE 20 - CORRECTION OF WORK AFTER FINAL PAYMENT
See Article 26 - Irrevocable Letter of Credit, and Article 31- Guarantee. Neither payment, nor
any provision of the Contract, nor any other act or instrument of the County, nor the Director
shall relieve the Contractor from responsibility for negligence, or faulty material or
workmanship, or failure to comply with the Contract Documents. He shall correct or make good
any defects due thereto and repair any damage resulting therefrom which may appear during the
period of the Contract. The County will report any defects as they may appear to the Contractor

of any of its obligations under the Contract Documents specifying the nature of the default and
the action required to cure such default, does not, within a period of five (5) days after such
notice, proceed in accordance therewith and prosecute the same to conclusion with due diligence,
then the County shall have the rights to enter upon the Class I Landfills and cure such default.
Provided, however, that if the default is of such a nature that the failure to cure it immediately
will result in the County's loss of the existing permit or will create a health or safety problem,
then County shall have the right to enter upon the Landfills immediately and cure such default,
but the County shall concurrently give notice thereof to Contractor. In any such case, the County
shall have the right to offset any cost and expenses incurred in curing any such defaults against
the payment to be made to the Contractor under the provisions of the Contract Documents or also
against the Irrevocable Letter of Credit, as provided in Article 32. In addition, then the County
may, after such event and without prejudice to any other right or remedy and after giving the
Contractor and his Surety three (3) days' written notice, terminate the services of the Contractor
and take possession of the landfill equipment, and of all materials, equipment, tools, and
machinery thereon owned by the Contractor, and complete the Contract by whatever method the
County may deem expedient. In such case, the Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any
further payment until the Contract is completed; however, the County will reimburse the
Contractor for the use of his equipment on a monthly basis. If the unpaid balance of the Contract
price exceeds the direct and indirect costs of completing the Contract, including compensation
for additional services, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If such costs exceed such
unpaid balance, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the County.
Where the Contractor's services have been so terminated by the County, said termination shall
not affect any rights of the County against the Contractor then existing or which may thereafter
accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys by the County due to the Contractor will not release
the Contractor from liability.
ARTICLE 23 - PAYMENTS FOR CLASS I LANDFILL OPERATIONS AND
MAINTENANCE
Payments will be made to the "Contractor" on a monthly basis. The "Contractor" shall submit to
the County on or before the 5th day of each month a request for payment covering solid waste

County may reasonably require. The County shall issue payment to the Contractor within 30
days from presentation to the County of request for payment. Payment for the Class I horizontal
and vertical infill expansion and the partial closure of Segment II will be under a separate
contract.

daily tonnage transported during the same month of the preceding year of operation or on any
other method mutually agreed upon by the County and the Contractor.

bpoesmoo-30 97
c. Daily Operations. All solid waste accepted at the landfill sites shall be thoroughly spread
and compacted by repeated passage of equipment of sufficient weight and capacity to
meet the requirements of the operational plan and permit. The Contractor is required to
achieve a minimum density of 1400 lbs./cubic yard for the solid waste fraction. This does
not include the borrow used for cover. Monthly estimates of cover used will be supplied
to the Owner. The unit weight of soil used as cover will be assumed to be 2700 lbs./cubic
yard. The density will be based on an annual survey performed in July of each year. If
the Contractor fails to meet the historical density of 1400 lbs./cubic yard, a penalty will
be assessed at the end of each fiscal year according to the following schedule.
Density Range Mon
1350 to 1399 lb/CY 0.50
1300 to 1349 lb/CY 1.00
1250 to 12991b/CY 1.50
1200 to 1249 lb/CY 2.00
The number of tons used in the penalty calculations will be the tonnage placed in the
Class I landfill during the preceding July 1 to June 30 period. Volume calculations will
be performed by the Engineer, and copies of the previous and present year's survey plus
the calculations will be provided to the Contractor by September 1 of each calendar year.
The first lift of waste shall be compacted in accordance with the operations to reach a
maximum density of 1000 LBS/CY. The first year's density requirements will be adjusted
according to the total tonnage of waste placed and the percentage of waste represented
by the first lift. Beginning the second full year of operation the density of 1400 LBS/CY
will be required. No bonus will be given for densities exceeding 1400 LBS/CY.
The Contractor is responsible for obtaining his own borrow material from offsite or onsite
sources for maintenance and/or for use as cover material. All soil materials available at
the existing landfill site within designated future borrow or future stormwater lake areas
may be available for excavation and use by the Contractor for a fee which may be
negotiated with the Owner.
d. Closure of Class I Landfill. Upon the completion of disposal operations to final contours,
the top surface will be contoured and finished in accordance with the permit as it exists at
the time of this Contract. Future final closure phases (after the initial closure of Segment

increase in the amounts charged to County equal to the amount of any fee, surcharge,
duty, tax or other similar changes (but excluding fines and penalties directly attributable

SECTION 1.3 - SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL PROCEDURES
1.3.1 General
Solid waste disposal procedures shall include unloading, inspecting for unacceptable waste,
spreading and compacting the wastes and applying soil cover. No intentional burning of waste
shall be allowed at the landfill.
The integrity of the liner and leachate collection system shall be maintained. Traffic on the liner
and leachate collection system will be permitted only if there is a minimum of 2 -feet of
additional sand soil over the two foot liner protective layer or a 4 -foot thick layer of waste is over
the protective sand layer and does not damage the compacted subgrade as determined by the
County.
To maintain the integrity of the liner and leachate collection system, the first lift of solid waste in
each phase of the landfill shall be placed from the top of the slope or thickened sand layer. Solid
waste transport vehicles, earth moving equipment, wheel compactors and other wheel equipment
shall operate only on the top of the lift or on a pad of compacted compressible municipal solid
waste except as otherwise specified.
1.3.2 Unloading Solid Wastes
Vehicles may discharge waste at either the top or bottom of the sloping working face of' the fill,
except vehicles shall not be permitted to operate on the landfill liner or protective layer until a
suitable layer of waste is in place. Suitable inert debris materials may be used for in -cell road
construction. The location of unloading shall be under the control of the Contractor at all times.
Unloading operations shall be managed so that they do not cause unnecessary delay of waste
hauling vehicles.
Vehicles shall unload solid waste as close as possible to the working face of the fill. Waste shall
then be spread and compacted by landfill equipment.
The working face, where wastes are unloaded, inspected, spread, and compacted, shall be wide
enough to prevent a backlog of vehicles waiting to unload and to allow adequate working space
for landfill equipment, but narrow enough to conserve cover soil and to minimize litter and
attraction of scavenger birds. The width of the working face shall not exceed 100 feet unless
approved by the County.
Special wastes which are mixed with Class I waste and are unloaded near the working face shall
be separated and removed to the area designated for these wastes. The cost for operations shall
include an allowance for normal amounts of special wastes such as tires, household hazardous
wastes or other special wastes. The Contractor shall have a plan to handle asbestos.
Indian River County receives other wastes as Class I which the Contractor should be prepared to
handle. Other wastes include large quantities of citrus waste when the processing plants are
working, and wastewater sludge.
1.3-1
l.Z•:o( .�i...ir�'F.i.��t:. tic .T;'.. !+147
ea16rnWtS47
The Contractor shall inform and coordinate with Local fire departments regarding the handling of
hot loads and landfill fires. A contingency plan shall be developed and distributed by the
Contractor. The contingency plan shall be equal to or more stringent than the current operational
plan for hot loads and landfill fires.
1.3.3 Compaction
After the solid waste is discharged from vehicles, it shall be spread and inspected on the sloping
working face in layers not to exceed 2 feet in thickness when compacted. Provided that the solid
waste accepted at the landfill is subject to being compacted to a minimum density of
approximately 1,400 pounds per cubic yard, all areas of each layer shall be compacted to at least
such density by a minimum of four passes of a wheel compactor. If the solid waste is not
compactable to such minimum density, Contractor shall promptly advise County of such fact
and, to the extent County so requests, take such action as County may request in order to
preclude the acceptance of solid waste at the landfill that is not compactable to such density.
The height of the sloping face and of each compacted lift of waste shall not exceed ten (10) feet.
The working face slope may be steepened at the end of the operating day to minimize the amount
of cover material used.
Immediately prior to placement of cover material, the surface of the solid waste to be covered
shall be leveled and compacted to the maximum extent practical to minimize the amount of soil
required to obtain the specified cover thickness.
1.3.4 Placement of Cover Material
a. Daily Cover - At the end of the day, 6 inches of compacted cover material shall be placed
on all exposed solid waste. The material shall be compacted to meet all applicable
federal and state laws and regulations governing solid waste management. Chapter 62-
701 also allows an operator to utilize a temporary removable cover over the working face
if additional Class I waste will be received and placed within 18 hours.
b. Intermediate Cover - An additional 6 inches of cover material shall be placed on all
surfaces of a cell where daily cover material will be exposed longer than 180 days or
where it will be subjected to vehicular traffic. The cover, which shall include the 6 inches
of daily cover and an additional 6 inches of intermediate cover, shall have a compacted
thickness of 12 inches. Intermediate cover will be seeded or sodded within 30 days after
placement of the intermediate cover soil layer. Seeding will be in accordance with
Section 2.4. Grass on intermediate cover shall be established and maintained. The top 6
to 12 inches of intermediate cover shall be stripped and used as daily cover on the
working face of the succeeding lift. All areas of the intermediate cover shall be inspected
monthly for the first year after it is installed and at least quarterly thereafter for evidence
of cracked, eroded, or uneven surfaces. Damaged surfaces shall be promptly regraded
and seeded.
1.3-2
b$SfI-1M.97
The top of each lift shall be graded and sloped for adequate drainage to prevent ponding of
precipitation on the cover. Cover material shall be compacted in layers not to exceed 6 inches of
compacted thickness. This material shall be compacted to meet all applicable Federal and State
laws and regulations governing solid waste management.
Additional factors to be considered for proper waste disposal procedures shall include the
following:
The Contractor shall manage his operation to minimize the use of cover material and
prevent waste of cover material. While the Contractor will be required to apply the
specified thickness of cover material, care shall be taken to prevent the use of excessive
cover material which would unnecessarily deplete the available air space.
The Agreement shall be based on obtaining all cover material from outside purchase of
operations borrow. The Contractor may purchase onsite or adjacent site borrow from the
County, if the County wishes to sell borrow material.
The County, at its discretion, will conduct surveys and analyses to determine the volume of the
solid waste fill, the rate of filling and degree of compaction, the quantity of cover material used,
the approximate ratio of cover to solid waste for the landfill, the approximate quantity of cover
material required to complete the landfill, and the approximate remaining quantity of cover
material available on the site or adjacent sites. If the County determines that excessive landfill
capacity or cover material is being utilized, the County shall have the right to require the
Contractor to modify his operation to achieve the specified cover with less cover material, and to
increase his compaction efforts.
c. Final Closure - Final closure of the Class I Landfill will be done in phases using an
impermeable barrier layer (geomembrane). The future closure of Class I areas will be
classified as a new project and may be performed by Contractor under a contract
amendment or competitively bid at the discretion of the County.
1.3.5 Diversion of Runoff from Working Face
The landfill shall be operated to minimize drainage of surface water across exposed solid waste
on the active working face. At all times when runoff from an area larger than one-half acre could
flow across the active working face, a temporary diversion berm shall be installed on the top of
the lift upgradient from the working face to divert surface runoff around the working face. The
drainage area between the diversion berm and the working face shall not exceed one-half acre.
The diverted water shall be spread as thinly as possible to minimize erosion of landfill cover.
Any erosion of cover shall be promptly repaired. Sections of temporary diversion berms that are
no longer needed to protect the working face shall be promptly removed and the area occupied by
the berm regraded to promote uniform runoff of surface water and to minimize erosion.
The Contractor shall develop and submit a plan to minimize leachate generation. This plan will
be incorporated as part of the Contractors methods of operation plan. Minimizing leachate
generation is an important part of Class I operations and the Contractor shall make every effort to
1.3-3
1
control it. Contractor shall pay sewer user charges to Indian River County for leachate treatment.
Any increase in user fees will be tied to Consumer Price Index, calculated using the methodology
in Section SC -2. No Contractor markup for overhead or profit will be allowed due to increased
user. rates.
1.3.6 Completion of Landfill Phases
The proposed closure plan for the Class I landfill is to install the closure cap system at specific
elevations. Partial closure of the Class I mound is proposed at 95 and 130 feet NGVD. In
anticipation of partial closure, the County shall contract for engineering design services. As
stated in 1.3.4(c), phased closure will be a new construction project, with construction negotiated
with the Contractor or competitively bid.
1.3.7 Operation During Inclement Weather
To minimize the adverse impact of wet weather on landfill operations, provisions shall be made
either to reserve a wet weather fill area readily accessible from the all-weather on-site road or to
provide crushed stone or other suitable surfacing on the temporary on-site road leading from the
all-weather road to the working face. In addition, an emergency stockpile of cover material
sufficient to provide cover for at least five days, shall be maintained near the wet weather fill
arca. The supply of emergency cover material shall be replenished as soon as weather and
ground conditions permit. Surface runoff shall be diverted around the stockpile to prevent
ponding of water on the landfill surface.
1.3.8 Special Waste Disposal
The types of wastes listed below shall not be accepted at the Class I Landfill. The list of
unacceptable wastes and handling procedures shall be periodically updated to reflect actual
operating experience.
If any hazardous, infectious, or unacceptable waste is detected in a delivery, the waste, truck, and
driver shall be isolated and the Contractor shall follow the County Waste Screening Plan to
notify the appropriate authorities.

SECTION 2
Overview of the Solid
Waste Management System
rIT
Indian River County's solid waste system is an organized dependent special district known
as the Indian River County Solid Waste Disposal District (SWDD). The solid waste system is
composed of franchised solid waste collectors, several collection centers, a disposal system,
a household hazardous waste management program, and a recycling program. This section
provides an overview of the SWDD management system and addresses the waste quantities
processed.
2.1 Solid Waste Collection System
Solid waste collection in the incorporated areas of Indian River County is the responsibility
of the respective cities. In the unincorporated areas, the SWDD Board has the legal authority
to award franchises to private haulers for collection of residential solid waste and
residential recyclables. Currently, the unincorporated areas of the County are served by two
private haulers through franchise agreements set forth in Resolutions 94-1 and 94-2. Copies
of the franchise agreements are provided in Appendix A.
Indian River County's franchise agreements divide the unincorporated area into two service
areas for residential collection. Harris Sanitation serves the northern part of the County, and
Treasure Coast Refuse Corporation serves the southern part of the County. The franchise
agreements include a provision that addresses the separate collection of yard trash in the
unincorporated areas to reduce the potential for such materials being disposed of in the
landfill.
SWDD operates five solid waste collection centers distributed throughout the County. The
collection centers serve as solid waste drop-off points for residential wastes, recyclable
materials, and household hazardous wastes (HHW). Use of the collection centers by
commercial establishments is limited to recyclable materials. Residential solid waste,
recyclables, and yard waste are collected in separate roll -off containers at each collection
center. Recyclable materials are collected in roll -off containers with separate bins for various
materials. Residential solid waste, yard waste, recyclables, and HHW are hauled by truck
from the collection centers to the landfill for disposal and/or processing. Residential solid

waste is disposed of in the landfill; yard waste is stored and processed at the landfill site;
and recyclables and HHW are stored at the landfill site until they are processed and
transferred to recycling firms or a disposal contractor. The locations of the collection centers
are shown in Figure 2-1.
Each collection center is fenced and has an attendant present during operating hours. The
collection centers are open 7 days a week. Operation hours are from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday and from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday.
2.2 Disposal System
Solid waste processing and disposal in Indian River County is conducted at the Indian
River County Landfill. Recyclable materials, land -clearing debris, yard waste, and tires are
processed at the landfill site. Saleable materials are shipped offsite to market while non -
saleable materials are processed for cover material or disposed of in the landfill. Garbage,
asbestos, sludge including grit and grease, and C&D debris go directly to the landfill for
disposal. Figure 2-2 shows the routing of waste at the landfill.
There are two active disposal areas at the County's landfill, a lined Class I disposal area and
a C&D disposal area. Garbage, sludge, and asbestos go directly to the County's Class I
disposal area. White goods (e.g., stoves, dishwashers, refrigerators, washers, dryers) and
scrap metal are segregated from the garbage and recycled when possible. White goods and
scrap metal removed from the waste stream and recycled provide a significant reduction
not only in weight but more importantly in volume. Because this type of waste is
voluminous and does not compact under normal compaction operations, it takes up a
relatively large amount of landfill space.
Prior to January 1994, C&D debris was placed in the Class 1 disposal area. Starting in
January 1994, contaminated C&D debris is placed in the lined disposal area and the
remainder of the C&D debris is placed in the CdtD disposal area. Contaminated C&D debris
consists of loads of C&D debris containing materials that do not meet the definition of C&D
debris. C&D debris are defined in Florida Administrative Code (FAC) 62-701.200(19) as:
Materials generally considered to be not water soluble and non -hazardous in nature,
including, but not limited to steel, glass, brick, concrete, asphalt roofing material, pipe,
gypsum wallboard, and lumber, from the construction or destruction of a structure as
part of a construction or demolition project or from the renovation of a structure. The

term includes rocks, soils, tree remains, trees, and other vegetative matter which
normally results from land clearing or land development operations for a construction
project.
The storage and handling of tires at the County's waste tire processing facility comply with
the rules and guidelines of state laws. A tire -shredding machine is currently in operation at
the facility. SWDD accepts automobile, truck, and heavy equipment tires from individuals
and businesses in Indian River County. In FY 1995, SWDD was awarded a Waste Tire Grant
from FDEP. A copy of the grant is included in Appendix B.
SWDD accepts tires from St. Lucie County through an interlocal agreement. Under the
interlocal agreement, SWDD processes and shreds waste tires generated in St. Lucie
County. The Agreement requires that the amount of waste tires transported to Indian River
County not exceed 170 tons per month and specifies that the shredded tires be returned to
the St. Lucie County landfill for disposal. A copy of the interlocal agreement is provided in
Appendix C.
In FY 1995, SWDD received 1,208 tons of tires and processed 1,531 tons of tires. Tires
shredded for St. Lucie totaled 604 tons; 649 tons of shredded tires were returned to St. Lucie
County. The total amount of tires shredded for disposal in the landfill was 625 tons. There
were 257 tons of tires used for fuel in FY 1995. The FDEP tire shredding permit allows
SWDD to dispose of the shredded material in a Class I landfill as needed.
Yard waste and land clearing debris are directed to an air -curtain incinerator or shredder.
The materials burned at the air -curtain incinerator are typically land -clearing wastes such as
trees and brush. The vegetative waste that is not incinerated is shredded onsite. This waste
is currently stored in an area just east of the Segment II landfill. Shredded vegetative waste
is sometimes used as temporary cover over the initial waste cover to keep dust levels low
and to protect soil cover from erosion. In FY 1995, approximately 39,446 tons of land -
clearing debris and yard trash were handled. Of this, 1,528 tons of burnable vegetative
debris were incinerated. Ash from the incinerator and dirt from the stockpile area are used
in the landfill as cover material.
2.3 Household Hazardous Waste Management
Indian River County SWDD's HHW program was created in FY 1989. The objective of the
HHW program is to maximize the removal of household hazardous materials entering the
Class I, C&D, and recyclable wastestreams, thereby minimizing the quantity of household

hazardous materials entering the County's landfill facility. In FY 1995, the County's HHW
program collected and processed approximately 46,256 pounds (23 tons) of hazardous
materials consisting of flammable liquids, combustibles, solvents, poisons, paints,
pesticides/herbicides, caustics and corrosives, oxidizers, and non-regulated materials.
The HHW program is supervised by an environmental chemist who is onsite weekdays.
The environmental chemist is responsible for various tasks, including inspecting,
separating, identifying and storing household hazardous wastes at the HHW facility at the
landfill. In addition, the County's environmental chemist educates the public in identifying
household hazardous materials, and maintains an inventory of materials stored and
processed by the HHW program.
The County's HHW program is financed in part by grants from FDEP. Grant funding has
been used to upgrade the current collection centers, support administrative and public
awareness activities, promote and facilitate HHW collections during local Household
Hazardous Waste Round -Up Days, and improve the HHW storage and processing facility
at the County's landfill. Improvement to the HHW storage and processing facility include:
• Construction of a 25- by 25 -foot wood deck and concrete slab area for refrigerant
reclamation from white goods
• Construction of a 24- by 12 -foot concrete block building to house the waste oil collection
tank and oil filter collection drum
2.3.1 Household Hazardous Waste Collection Centers
Unused and unwanted household hazardous materials are collected at the County's HHW
storage and processing facility at the landfill and at each of the County's five collection
centers. The HHW storage and processing facility at the landfill is open Monday through
Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The HHW facility is used by at least 25 people per
month.
An estimated average of 60 households per month brings household hazardous materials to
the County's collection centers. The collection centers are equipped with used oil collection
tanks, plastic tubs for household and automobile batteries, and biohazardous containers for
sharps (needles) that are enclosed in lock boxes. Fifty -five -gallon drums are available for
homeowners' oil filters. A contracted waste oil hauler collects the oil and oil filters for
recycling, a contractor collects the batteries for recycling, and a biohazardous waste hauler
collects the sharps containers. The remaining household hazardous wastes are inspected by
the County's environmental chemist and transferred to the HHW facility at the landfill for

storage and processing. Based on transfer personnel Logs and the log sheets at the landfill,
25,311 pounds of household hazardous materials were brought to the HHW transfer
stations by 657 homeowners in FY 1995. The majority of the weight is from automobile
batteries.
SWDD informs local businesses that are classified as small quantity generators (SQG) of the
monthly hazardous waste pick-up available to them at a reduced charge through the
County's contractor. A SQG is defined as a generator of hazardous waste in quantities
ranging from 100 to 1,000 kilograms per month depending on the type of waste generated.
SWDD sponsors an annual meeting with the County's hazardous waste contractor and the
County's SQGs. The County's SQGs are put in touch with the contractor to make
arrangements for time of visit and cost of disposal.
2.3.2 Household Hazardous Waste Round -Up Days
The SWDD sponsors HHW Round -Up Days for County residents. The HHW Round -Up
in 1995 was held on Saturday, April 29 from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the County
Administration Building parking lot. During the event, homeowners were allowed to drop
off household hazardous wastes for disposal, free of charge. A total of 2,720 pounds of
hazardous materials and 1,918 pounds of recyclable materials (used oil, automobile
batteries, and latex paints) were collected from 102 homeowners. Appendix D includes the
County's adopted formal protocol for handling HHW.
The County has contracted with a licensed hazardous waste transporter/disposer for
identifying, packing, and transporting of the collected hazardous wastes at the end of the
event. Posters describing the event were posted at various public locations. In addition, the
event was announced in two local newspapers, on four local radio stations, and during a
local television station interview.
2.3.3 Hazardous Waste Contracts
The following contracts supporting the HHW program were updated in FY 1995:
• HHW handling and disposal contract was renewed for an additional year with
Universal Waste and Transit.
• The laboratory analytical services contract with Environmetrics, Inc. was renewed for
one year.

OVERVIEW of THE SOUR WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
• In October 1994, FDEP approved a "unique and innovative projects" contract for
refrigerant reclaim from white goods at the landfill under an FAC 62-735 hazardous
waste collection center grant.
In addition, the following purchase orders were set up for FY 1995:
• Purchase order for collection/recycle of oil filters and anti -freeze by Cliff Berry, Inc.
• Purchase order for collection/recycle of fluorescent lamps at the landfill under State
Contract No. 991-705.95-1, with Mercury Technologies, Inc.
• Purchase order for collection/disposal of biomedical waste with Browning-Ferris, Inc.
• Purchase order for collection/recycle of auto batteries with Ed Hammond Enterprises.
The County receives compensation from Ed Hammond Enterprises for the recycling of
used auto batteries.
2.3.4 Training
Training programs in accordance with OSHA regulations regarding safety and operations is
ongoing and continued in FY 1995. In addition, a training course covering waste screenings
and identification was conducted by SWDD personnel for landfill operators and spotters.
Specific subjects addressed included biohazardous waste handling, spill handling and
reporting.
2.4 Recycling Program
The 1988 Solid Waste Management Act requires that counties in the State reduce by
30 percent the amount of solid waste refuse entering their landfills by the end of 1994. The
Act also requires that local governments initiate a material recycling program by July 1,
1989, as part of the effort to achieve the solid waste reduction goal. In response to this effort,
Indian River County authorized development of a recycling/recovery plan, and established
recycling facilities at its collection centers to achieve the goals of the Act. The adoption of
the recycling plan led to the establishment of Indian River County's recycling program,
which was designed to reduce the amount of solid waste entering the landfill.
Initially, the County's five collection centers were expanded to include collection facilities
for recyclables, and additional drop-off sites were established using igloo containers. In
April 1992, 18 -gallon blue -bins were provided by the County for the curbside residential

single-family recycling. Following the initiation of the single family residential curbside
program, curbside and Toter -station community drop-off points were added to the
recycling program at multi -family complexes. The 96 -gallon Toter containers were provided
by the haulers in accordance with the agreement with the haulers. Recyclables collected at
curbside and in Toter containers are newspapers and newspaper inserts; glossy magazines
and catalogs; telephone books; aluminum and bi-metal cans; plastic beverage containers
(high-density polyethylene [HDPE] and polyethylene terephthalate [PETE)); and green,
brown, and clear glass bottles and jars. Both of SWDD's recycling collection companies has
one designated neighborhood in which a mixed cardboard pilot recycling program is
underway.
A County -wide curbside multi -family recycling program started in January 1994. After
County -wide curbside recycling was completely established, most of the public igloo sites
were removed during September 1994. Igloo sites remain operative at two remote locations
in areas that do not receive other recycling service. These locations are the Blue Cypress
Lake Fishing Camp and the Sebastian Inlet State Park. The County collection centers con-
tinue to accept and process recyclables. Recyclables accepted at the collection centers are
plastic beverage containers (HDPE and PETE), newspapers and inserts, glossy magazines
and catalogs; telephone books; corrugated cardboard; yard waste; motor oil; household and
automobile batteries; white goods; scrap metal; aluminum and bi-metal cans; and green,
brown, and clear glass bottles and jars.
The igloo containers that were removed by the County from its public recycling sites were
offered to the County's schools for in -school recycling. Most of the County's schools have
igloos in place or on order. The majority of the recyclables collected from these are news-
paper, office and computer paper, and metal cans. During FY 1995, SWDD purchased
twelve 6 -cubic -yard dumpsters and placed them at County schools to collect corrugated
cardboard for recycling.
The curbside residential recycling services for the unincorporated areas of the County and
municipalities that are part of SWDD are provided by Hams Sanitation and Treasure Coast
Refuse within their franchise collection service areas. On September 28, 1993, SWDD
renewed and updated their interlocal agreements with the Cities of Fellsmere and
Sebastian, and the Towns of Orchid, Indian River Shores, and the City of Vero Beach to
address the submittal of a joint grant application to FDEP, and provision of curbside
recycling collection services for mobile home parks, multi -family, and single-family units.
Copies of the interlocal agreements are provided in Appendix E.

OVERVIEW OF THE SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Participation in the commercial recycling program has increased during FY 1995. A
business recycling seminar was conducted in June 1995 to inform the County's businesses
of recycling opportunities available to them. SWDD currently has an office paper recycling
program, which accepts white ledger and copier paper, white envelopes with no windows,
and green and blue bar computer paper. Each collection center accepts office paper. To
stimulate business recycling, SWDD offers assessment credits to those businesses that
document recycling activities. Furthermore, SWDD requires that its franchised haulers
provide recycling service to those businesses that request it.
In October 1994, the City of Vero Beach began a commercial recycling program using its
own solid waste vehicles and equipment, collecting recyclables from businesses within the
city on a scheduled basis. In FY 1995, SWDD renewed its recycling contract with Southeast
Recycling Corporation. The contract includes purchase of recycled newspaper, and the
option to sell telephone books, corrugated cardboard, glossy magazines and office paper,
and to collect such materials along with the newspaper.
A total of 44,071 tons of solid waste was recycled in FY 1995. The SWDD recycled
38,129 tons of this waste, while private companies recycled 5,942 tons. Materials processed
and marketed by SWDD include aluminum and bi-metal cans, white goods, scrap metal,
HDPE and PETE plastics, newspaper and inserts, corrugated cardboard, household and
automobile batteries, motor oil, glass, magazines, catalogs, telephone books, office and
computer paper, and mulch. Mulch was also used onsite for daily cover and for slope
stabilization. These are beneficial uses that earn recycling credit from FDEP. Motor oil,
copier cartridges, fishing line, wire clothes hangers, foam packing popcorn, newspapers,
plastic bags, automobile batteries, cardboard, scrap metal, and aluminum cans are recycled
by various private businesses and organizations.
Using FDEP procedures for calculating recycling credits, the County attained a 25.2 percent
recycling rate in FY 1995. SWDD does its own recyclables marketing, thus having an
opportunity to find the best available prices for a given material at a given time. Money
received from the sale of recyclables for FY 1995 was as follows:

OVERVIEW O: THE SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
In FY 1995, SWDD was awarded a Recycling/Education Grant and a Litter Control and
Prevention Grant. The Litter Control and Prevention Grant was used for beach clean-up, the
Adopt -A -Road Program, and the Keep Indian River Beautiful Program. The Recycling/
Education Grant was utilized for maintenance of recycling equipment, operational
expenses, promotional and educational materials, and curbside recycling collection service.
Copies of the grants are included in Appendix B.
2.5 Solid Waste Quantities
Solid waste quantities were taken from landfill scale reports generated by Indian River
County. For FY 1995, the total quantity of wastes processed by the County was 198,610 tons.
This includes garbage, special waste and animals, C&D, sludge, tires, land -clearing debris,
yard trash, household hazardous waste, and recyclables. Of the total processed by the
County, only 114,318 tons were landfilled in the County's Segment II landfill, the active
Class I fill area. The remainder was incinerated, recycled, stockpiled, shipped to St. Lucie
County, or landfilled in the County's C&D facility.
The C&D debris in FY 1995 totaled 49,979 tons. Of this, 37,195 tons were landfilled in the
C&D landfill and 10,391 tons were recycled as dean debris. The remaining 2,393 tons of
C&D were placed in the Segment II landfill. Figure 2-2 shows the solid waste stream
routing for FY 1995. Appendix G provides spreadsheets that show detailed information on
the total quantity of recyclables and waste processed by the County in FY 1995. The
characteristics of the waste stream are shown in Table 2-1. The percentages were derived
from the landfill scale reports.
The 1995 population of Indian River County was 100,261 (Source: Bureau of Economic and
Business Research, February 1996). Based on the FY 1995 total County population and the
total amount of waste received by the County in FY 1995, the County's waste generation
rate was calculated to be 10.85 pounds per capita per day (equal to 1.98 tons/person/year).
The actual waste landfilled was calculated at 6.25 pounds per capita per day (equal to
1.14 tons/person/ year). Actual waste landfilled in FY 1995 included garbage, shredded
tires, sludge including grit and grease, asbestos, ash from the air -curtain incinerator, wood
chips and mulch, and a portion of the total C&D debris.
2.6 Solid Waste Projections
Solid waste projections were prepared to estimate the remaining disposal capacity of the
lined Segment II landfill. Tables 2-2 and 2-3 show the current and projected amounts of

solid waste entering the County's Class I landfill and estimates available landfill capacity
with and without a proposed infill between Segments I and II. A permit application for the
infill has been submitted to FDEP. Construction of the infill is expected to begin in FY 1996,
if FDEP approves the permit. These analyses assume that current operating practices are
maintained, the effectiveness of the County's recycling program remains constant, and C&D
debris are diverted and landfilled in a dedicated C&D landfill. The County's historical
waste data show that C&D debris comprises approximately 26 percent of the total waste
landfilled. The effects of a natural disaster such as a hurricane are not considered.
2.6.1 Class !Landfill
Camp, Dresser & McKee (CDM) estimated that the original design capacity of Segment II
including daily, intermediate, and final cover was 1,621,000 cubic yards. This capacity will
increase by approximately 1,500,000 cubic yards if the permit application for the proposed
infill is approved by FDEP.

OVERVIEW OF THE SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
In order to estimate the remaining waste disposal capacity of Segment II, daily, interme-
diate, and final cover needs to be taken into account. For purposes of this evaluation, a
cover system composed of 6 inches of topsoil, an 18 -inch drainage layer, a composite
drainage net, a 40 -mil geomembrane limiting layer, and an 18 -inch intermediate soil layer
has been assumed as the final landfill cover system. This 3.5 -foot thick cover system will
occupy a volume of approximately 5,650 cubic yards per acre of landfill closed. For Segment
II without the infill, the cover system will occupy approximately 141,000 cubic yards
yielding a disposal capacity of 1,480,000 cubic yards. For Segment II with the infill, the
cover system will occupy approximately 218,000 cubic yards yielding a disposal capacity of
2,903,000 cubic yards.
2.6.1.1 Landfill Volume Surveys
Volume surveys have been conducted periodically throughout the operating life of
Segment II of the landfill to evaluate the rate of filling and to estimate remaining life (see
Tables 2-4 and 2-5). The most recent volume survey was conducted in July 1995 by
Masteller, Moler & Reed, Inc. (see Appendix G). The survey report indicated that
1,021,000 cubic yards of waste had been placed in Segment II as of July 1995. Based on this
survey information and deducting for the cover system volume, this left approximately
459,000 cubic yards of the original Segment II capacity available as of July 1995. If the infill
is permitted, the remaining capacity as of July 1995 would have been approximately
1,882,000.
2.6.1.2 Landfill Life
In order to estimate remaining landfill life, future waste tonnage had to be projected and
converted to volume. Waste tonnage was projected based on population projections from
the University of Florida, Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) assuming that
future per capita waste production remains constant at the average rate between FY 1992-93
and FY 1994-95 (1.18 tons per capita per year). As indicated in Tables 2-4 and 2-5, waste
density within Segment ll has been approximately 1,450 pounds per cubic yard (lbs/cy)
based on historical volume survey and waste disposal information. In order to project
future waste volume, a density of 1,200 lbs/cy has been used. A 20 percent allowance has
been factored into the projections to account for the volume loss due to application of daily
cover. Lower than historical compaction density and a daily cover allowance were used for
the future volume projections because:

OVERVIEW OF THE SOLID WASTE M WAGEMENT SYSTEM
• The high historical density is believed to be related to the quantity of organics
(primarily fruit and other food wastes) in the Indian River County waste stream. These
organics have biodegraded over the life of the landfill resulting in subsidence which
increases the airspace available for use. As the landfill approaches capacity, waste may
not have sufficient time to biodegrade, thus the capacity recovered due to subsidence
may not be available for waste disposal.
• Indian River County opened a C&D landfill in January 1994. C&D that had been
landfilled in Segment II now goes to the C&D landfill, thus changing the waste
characteristics of the waste landfilled in Segment II.
• Beginning in January 1994, more daily cover material has been placed in Segment II
because of changes in the FAC 62-701.500 requirements. Prior to the January 1994
amendments, the "18 -hour rule" had been in effect. This rule exempted areas that would
receive additional waste within 18 hours from the daily cover requirement.
Based on population projections and the FY 1995 Landfilled tonnage, the Class I waste
disposal rate was 1.18 tons per person per year. Using this disposal rate and the remaining
disposal capacity of 419,000 cubic yards, Segment II had approximately 21 months of
remaining capacity as of October 1,1995, without the infill. If the infill is permitted, the
remaining disposal capacity will increase to approximately 1,841,000 cubic yards with a
projected life of approximately 7 years.
2.6.2 C&D Landfill
CDM estimated that the original design capacity of the C&D landfill including weekly and
final cover was 1,186,000 cubic yards. In order to estimate the remaining waste disposal
capacity of the C&D landfill, weekly and final cover needs to be taken into account. For
purposes of this evaluation, a cover system composed of 6 inches of topsoil and an 18 -inch
drainage layer has been assumed as the final landfill cover system. This 2 -foot thick cover
system will occupy a volume of approximately 54,000 cubic yards, yielding a disposal
capacity of 1,132,000 cubic yards.
2.6.2.1 Landfill Volume Surveys
A volume survey was conducted in July 1995 by Masteller, Moler & Reed, Inc. (see
Appendix H). The survey report indicated that 76,900 cubic yards of waste had been placed
in the C&D landfill as of July 1995. Based on this survey information and deducting for the
final :cover system volume, this left approximately 1,055,000 cubic yards of the C&D landfill
capacity available as of July 1995.

OVERVIEW OF THE SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
2.6.2.2 Landfill Life
In order to estimate remaining landfill life, future waste tonnage had to be projected and
converted to volume. Waste tonnage was projected based on population projections from
the University of Florida, BEBR, assuming that future per capita waste production remains
constant at the FY 1994-95 rate (0.37 tons per capita per year). As indicated in Tables 2-6
and 2-7, waste density within the C&D landfill has been approximately 1,275 lbs/cy based
on volume survey and waste disposal information. In order to project future waste volume,
a density of 1,100 lbs/cy has been used. A 5 percent allowance has been factored into the
projections to account for the volume loss due to application of weekly cover.
Based on population projections and the FY 1995 landfilled tonnage, the C&D landfill waste
disposal rate was 0.37 tons per person per year. Using this disposal rate and the remaining
disposal capacity of 1,026,000 cubic yards, the C&D landfill had approximately 143 months
of remaining capacity as of October 1,1995.

METHOD AND SEQUENCING OF FILLING WASTES
Sequence of Filling Waste
Waste Filling
The Class I landfill shall be developed in accordance with the operations plan and the
operating sequence plan as described herein. The sequence of filling shall also be in
accordance with the phasing plan presented in the permit renewal application for
Segment 2.
Generally, Class I solid waste landfilling is accomplished in 8 to 10 foot high lifts, with
the working face progressing across the base of Segment 2 in an east to west direction.
A working face of about 100 feet width by 100 feet long is used. The working face area
is minimized to reduce infiltration, while providing adequate room for vehicles
unloading their solid waste. As of October 31,1995, the SWDD had completed filling
solid waste across the entire 26 -acre Segment 2 base, to an elevation of about 60 feet
National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD).
A terrace has been constructed at elevation 55 feet NGVD by moving the next lift
inward 20 feet from the edge. Lift 4 from elevation 55 to 65 has started in the northeast
corner of Segment 2, and will advance to the west. Filling of lifts sequence from north
to south, in accordance with the approved fill sequence. The working face will be
sloped at a 4:1 slope to maximize runoff from the cover material. Diversion berms to
route stormwater away from the working face area will consistently be used to
minimize infiltration. The Segment 2 top surface will generally be graded to the east
and south to route stormwater away from the infill. Additional terraces with a 20 -foot
width will be constructed at elevation 75 and 95 feet NGVD. This procedure will

continue until the infill segment is constructed and ready for filling. Areas of Segment 2
which will not be filled within 180 days (due to placing solid waste into the infill) will
receive intermediate cover material.
A formal weekly or monthly work plan for Class I solid waste landfilling shall be
prepared by the Landfill Supervisor or the Operations Supervisor. The plan should
include the area to be filled during the next period, the approximate grade to be
obtained, the type of cover materials(s) used, and the equipment and operators to
accomplish the task. The weekly or monthly work plan should follow the general
sequencing plan for filling the Segment 2 phase. The weekly or monthly plan must be
flexible enough to allow for weather conditions, changing volume of wastes, and to
accommodate all types of waste materials.
A lateral and vertical expansion is submitted in December 1995 as a substantial
modification to the Segment 2 operations permit. The filling sequence will change
significantly to fill the "infill" segment between Segment 1 and Segment 2. The change
in sequence is described below.
Following installation of the infill system (horizontal expansion), waste shall be placed
as quickly as possible in the valley of the infill expansion to provide some field capacity
storage for stormwater infiltration. The objective will be to place as much select waste
into the base of the infill as quickly as possible to fill it to at least the length of the north
and south berms. Filling will start at the north end, and proceed in 5- to 10 -foot lifts
until the infill area elevation becomes even with the Segment 2 mound. Stormwater
diversion techniques discussed in other sections of the operations manual will be critical
to the success of filling the infill without excessive leachate generation.

Method of Filling Wastes
ffelwargagiwgzsrs
The procedure for filling and compacting of the initial refuse lift over the infill liner will
be different than all remaining refuse lifts. In order to protect the integrity of the new
leachate collection system and infill liner, driving of vehicles directly over the protective
soil layer will be prohibited. All traffic will maneuver on compacted and covered
refuse, or on a compacted soil or shell rock access road. The initial lift over the infill
liner will be accessed by vehicles from the top of the north berm. At first, several truck
loads of carefully "selected" waste will be dumped over the north berm and an access
ramp will be constructed of solid waste. A small dozer will be used to spread and
compact the select waste. The refuse will be spread to a depth of at least five feet over
the full extent of the prepared base using rubber tire or tracked landfill equipment. The
initial lift shall be of select solid waste having no rocks, shafts, non-compressible items,
white goods, or materials which could be driven through the protective layer and
penetrate the liner.
The completion of the initial lift and all subsequent lifts will be built from the bottom of
the active working face, which is generally considered the most efficient and economic
means of landfill operation. Refuse shall be placed against the working face of the
previous face day's refuse, so that the first row shall act as a means of access and a berm
to guide the placement of refuse for the remaining rows. Refuse shall be spread in two
foot layers, and compacted with a minimum of three to five passes of the compaction
machines. The spreading and compacting is intended to be a continual operation. An
in-place density of at least 1,000 pounds per cubic yards shall be achieved. The
operation shall maximize compaction to achieve the most efficient use of airspace.
Large compressible bulky objects that cannot be recycled should be dumped to one side
of the active working face on the flat surface at either the top or bottom of the working

face. The bulldozer operator should then compact the bulky object on the flat solid
ground. The compacted objects should be moved to the active working face and
landfilled at the base of the lift being placed.
In each row, cells shall be constructed having a working face not greater than 75 to 100
feet in width (depending on volume of refuse vehicles and weather conditions) to
provide unhindered vehicle access while minimizing exposed areas. A small working
face decreases the cover material required, increases compaction efficiency, and
decreases the potential for litter problems. The working face slope shall be maintained
at a maximum slope of three (horizontal) to one (vertical). Each cell shall be constructed
to an approximate height of 8 to 10 feet. This height range is considered an optimum
height for compaction machinery and provides safe lines of sight for the equipment
operators and spotters at the top of the landfill face.
At the end of each day's operation, the active landfill working face shall be thoroughly
compacted, and cover material shall be spread and compacted to a depth of six inches
in accordance with FDEP requirements. The landfill currently uses shredded wood
wastes and shredded tires in addition to common fill to minimize the amount of earth
used for daily cover.

WASTE COMPACTION AND APPLICATION OF COVER
Waste Compaction
Individual solid waste cells shall be 8 to 10 feet high with maximum 3:1 sideslopes as
stated in the "Method and Sequence of Filling Wastes" section. Refuse shall be spread in
two foot thick layers, and compacted with a minimum of three to five passes of the
compaction machines. A minimum in-place density of 1,000 pounds per cubic yard
shall be achieved. The operation shall maximize compaction to conserve airspace. An
annual topographic survey shall be completed, and used to determine in-place solid
waste densities.

Cover Requirements 1
The SWDD has a competitive bid contract with an outside contractor for delivery of
common fill dirt and topsoil through September 1996. Additional soil material
contracts for provision of offsite borrow may be sought depending on landfill
development needs and economic feasibility. The SWDD maintains an onsite stockpile
of approximately 1,000 to 1,500 cubic yards to use in wet -weather situations.
Although cover soil is currently purchased offsite, the landfill is equipped to excavate
and haul cover material from onsite borrow areas\to the working face. Borrow can be
excavated by pan from a dewatered pit or borrow is removed from a partially
dewatered borrow pond by dragline and placed to the side to drain. The "dried"
borrow can be loaded onto an all terrain dump truck, or a scraper pan can be used to
pickup and haul cover material from the borrow area to the working face. At the

working face, it is spread by a bulldozer. As additional stormwater management areas
and ditches are developed onsite or offsite, these areas will yield a new source of cover
material for future operations.
Daily Cover
At the end of each working day, the Class I refuse will be covered with a minimum of
six inches of compacted cover material. The landfill currently uses imported soil
supplemented with shredded wood wastes and shredded tires for daily cover. Cover
material minimizes rodent and vector problems and helps to mitigate windblown litter
and the possibility of fires spreading in the fill. Two passes with the equipment is
normally sufficient to compact the soil. Any remaining litter and cleanings from
equipment should be placed at the bottom of the completed cell and covered. Drainage
of the working face area and the borrow stockpile area should be checked and corrected
to minimize erosion, if necessary. Stormwater drainage diversion berms and temporary
piping shall be consistently placed to divert stormwater from the active fill area, and
filled areas with daily or intermediate cover.
Intermediate Cover
Intermediate cover is defined as that material which is to be placed on the landfill
surface in areas that will not receive final cover or an additional lift within 180 days.
Intermediate cover should be placed to a minimum compacted thickness of 12 inches on
top of the six inches of compacted daily cover. Any intermediate cover areas that will
not be landfilled on or capped with final cover within 180 days should be seeded or
covered with wood chips, hay straw or other appropriate cover material to minimize
slope erosion. For areas to be exposed for longer periods, a vegetative cover of bahia

grass (Pensacola variety) should be applied. To conserve soil, the intermediate cover
may be scraped back immediately before placement of additional solid waste on top of
the lift. The scraped back soil can be reused as cover material.
Final Cover
The final cover layering from bottom to top will consist of 18 inches of daily and
intermediate cover, a 40 mil HDPE or LLDPE geomembrane, a fabric -backed geonet, 18
inches of load soil, and 6 inches of top soil. The top soil will be vegetated with
Pensacola Bahia grass placed as sod. This closure configuration meets Chapter 62-
701.600(5)(g), FAC, and 40 CFR Part 258 commonly known as the Subtitle "b" regulation
effective October 9,1993. The geomembrane barrier layer will have a permeability of
less than 1.0 (101' cm/sec, equal to the installed bottom liner geomembrane (Segment 2)
on the composite liner system used in the lateral expansion.

OPERATION OF GAS, LEACHATE, AND STORMWATER CONTROLS
Gas Mang m nt
As of October 31,1995, gas management consists of 13 passive vents installed on the
closed Segment 1 landfill, and monthly gas monitoring at six locations on the north,
west, and south edges of Segment 1. No gas control system is in-place on the active
Segment 2 landfill. The gas vents on Segment 1 are flared periodically when odor
control is necessary. Existing gas vents should be inspected monthly to determine any
damage. Damaged gas vents shall be repaired by replacing pipe or fittings, as
necessary. Four of the existing as vents will be modified due to the infill sideslope liner.
these four vents will be extended horizontally and turned upward outside of the top
anchor berm for the sideslope liner.
In the future, as development and closure of additional segments of the landfill produce
methane, and non -methane gases, it may be necessary to modify the gas management
system to conform to 40 CFR, Parts 51, 52, and 60, which were proposed on July 1,1992
and promulgated in the summer of 1994. The new regulations which require active gas
management systems are applicable if the landfill has:
• Accepted waste at anytime since November 8,1987, or has additional capacity
for future waste deposition;
■ A design capacity of 111,000 tons or more; and
• A non -methane organic compound (NMOC) emission rate of 167 tons per year or
more.
A three -tiered methodology is used to evaluate the mass of NMOC from a landfill. The
first tier utilizes an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) generated computer

program with typical "default" data for emission estimates. The second tier involves
sampling the gas at the landfill to determine its NMOC contact. The third tier method
entails installing a field testing program to determine site-specific parameters for use in
the EPA model. If the landfill exceeds the threshold NMOC emissions level of 167 tons
per year, the owner operator must install an active gas collection and control system.
The gas control system must be able to reduce the quality of NMOCs in the landfill gas
stream by 98 percent by weight. The type of gas management/odor control system
installed at closure will be determined by the amount and composition of the landfill
gas generated. Operating procedures will be provided when the gas management
system is installed. See "Landfill Gas Monitoring", Section 17-701.500(9) of this
document.
Leachate Management
w
Leachate is collected over the liner of Segment 2 by a leachate collection and
transmission system. The leachate is conveyed to a pump station/leachate sump
located at the northwest corner of Segment 2. Leachate from the infill sideslope liner
will be minimized by stormwater diversion techniques as discussed in Section 62-
701.500(10) of the operations plan. The stormwater section is expanded to include
stormwater diversion procedures for the infill segment.

The leachate which is collected by the sideslope liner and by the horizontal expansion
will be collected by one of two 8 -inch collection laterals, located over the composite
liner. The leachate collection laterals are sloped south to north, and connect to an 8 -inch
perforated header just inside the north berm of the horizontal expansion. A single pipe
penetration through the north berm allows collected leachate to flow to a new manhole
(Manhole No. 11). From manhole 11, the leachate flows through a 10 -inch pipe to the
existing pump station. Leachate quantities are expected to increase with the horizontal

expansion to a maximum leachate production of 16,000 gpd, and a total leachate flow of
23,000 gpd. The existing leachate pump station system with a capacity of 350 gpm (2
pumps each at 350 gpm, 27 feet total dynamic head) is sufficient to handle the lateral
expansion area.
Collected leachate is currently managed by forcemain conveyance to the Indian River
County Utilities West Subregional Wastewater Plant. The leachate forcemain was
installed in 1993. The leachate pump station and force main is manufactured by the
Indian River County Utilities Department. If wastewater treatment regulations become
more stringent or pretreatment is required, the SWDD will investigate and implement
appropriate pretreatment onsite. The SWDD has obtained a leachate surge tank, which
is currently stored onsite. The surge tank is not installed and could be used for
pretreatment, in the future, if necessary.

WATER QUALITY MONITORING
Current groundwater quality sampling consists of semi-annual sampling at 36 onsite
wells. These wells include wells installed as monitoring and detection wells during
October and November 1995. There are 12 shallow wells (less than 20 feet deep), 12
intermediate wells (30 feet to 40 feet depth), and 12 deep wells (50 feet to 80 feet depth).
Semi-annual sampling parameters include total dissolved solids, turbidity, total organic
carbon, ammonia -nitrogen, nitrates, organic nitrogen, pH, chlorides, sulfur, specific
conductive, bicarbonate ion, color, and water level. In addition, samples are analyzed
for magnesium, potassium, iron, manganese, zinc, and sodium. Data is submitted on
standard storet code sheets to the FDEP semi-annually in accordance with the approved
November 1994 comprehensive water quality monitoring plan. A bi-annual report is
being prepared to cover the last two years. An annual groundwater and surface water
quality report is prepared and submitted to FDEP. The location of monitoring wells
and surface water sampling points is shown on Figure 3-3 of the infill segment permit
application.
Field sampling and laboratory analysis are performed by an EPA -and -HRS certified
analytical lab, Envirometrics, Inc. of Vero Beach, Florida. Envirometrics, Inc. has an
approved field sampling quality assurance plan and an approved comprehensive
laboratory analysis quality assurance plan for groundwater, surface water, and leachate.
Surface water sampling is conducted quarterly at four locations at or near the discharge
points from the borrow pond and the stormwater pond. The locations are at the
discharge point from the sedimentation ponds, on the C-6 canal, an upstream location
on the C-6 canal, and a downstream location approximately 1,100 feet east of the
sedimentation pond outfall. The fourth location is at the discharge weir for the
stormwater pond conveyance ditch. This location has been dry (no discharge) during

Surface water sampling and analysis is conducted each quarter for the following
parameters:
Field: Temperature, Dissolved Oxygen, pH, Conductivity.
Laboratory: Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Turbidity, Total Dissolved Solids, Nitrate -
Nitrite Nitrogen, Ammonia, Alkalinity, Sodium, Arsenic, Cadmium, Chromium, Lead,
Selenium, Copper, Iron, Aluminum, Sulfate, and Chlorides. Surface water quality
results are sent to FDEP quarterly, and included in the annual comprehensive water
quality report.
The location of surface water discharge points will change as solid waste disposal areas
develop, and as additional stormwater facilities are constructed. Please refer to the
most recent approved water quality monitoring plan for updated information
regarding stormwater and groundwater sampling points and parameters.
Leachate is currently sampled semi-annually for volatile organic compounds, heavy
metals, and indicator parameters. EPA 601 and 602 organic parameters are analyzed.
Analytical results are forwarded to the FDEP. The parameters analyzed meet the
requirements of Chapter 17-701.510(6), FAC for quarterly sampling and Chapter 17-
701.510(8)(d), FAC for annual samples. Rainfall data is used to determine the efficiency
of leachate generation control methods. Landfill staff track daily rainfall and report
precipitation to FDEP monthly. In addition, the Indian River Farms Water Control
District has a small weather station at the scalehouse. Daily precipitation records are
available from this weather station.

ACCESS CONTROL
The Indian River County SWDD Landfill Facility is open for operation and acceptance
of waste Monday through Saturday. Operating hours are from 7:00 A.M. to 5:45 P.M.
The landfill is closed for acceptance of all wastes New Years Day, July 4th, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.
Facility access shall be controlled at all times. Access control discourages improper
disposal, illegal dumping practices, or inadvertent acceptance of unauthorized wastes.
The entire landfill perimeter is fenced to discourage unauthorized entry. In addition,
major canals are located outside of and along the entire north, south, and east property
boundaries. One entrance located off of Rangeline Road is utilized for all vehicles
entering or leaving the landfill. All vehicles delivering solid wastes, special waste,
recyclable, or other materials must enter through the main entrance and pass over the
scale north of the scalehouse.
The SWDD employs weighmasters and a nighttime watchman/security guard who
monitor the entrance and perimeter of the solid waste management facility site. In
addition, employees performing their normal work activities also identify and challenge
unauthorized persons or vehicles. The Indian River County Sanitary Landfill Facility is
located just north and immediately adjacent to the Indian River Correctional Institute.
Security for the south portion of the landfill is improved due to the presence of the
prison facility.

LEACHATE MANAGEMENT
Segment 2 Leachate Collection/Conveyance System
Leachate is a by-product of landfills, resulting from infiltration of rainfall and moisture
created by decomposition, consolidation, and compression of waste materials. It is
collected from the Segment 2 Class I landfill by a network of six inch diameter HDPE
pipes located at natural grade and above an impermeable liner. These pipes.are
perforated along the lower sections, and have been installed in ballast rock bedding
surrounded with filter fabric to collect liquid leachate and trap sediment. Solid debris is
blocked from entering the pipes by the rock and filter. The pipes connect with 8 and 10
inch diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) gravity lines, buried a minimum of three feet
below grade, which drain to a series of manholes located on the east and west sides of
Segment 2. The closed Segment 1 Class I disposal area is unlined except for an
intermittent natural clay layer just below natural grade.
Segment 2 leachate flows to a single pump station located at the northwest corner of
Segment 2. Since 1988, this pump station has primarily served as a sump for leachate
storage. The duplex pump system provides capacity for approximately 350 gpm/pump
against a total dynamic head of 27 feet. The pumps were used from 1988 to 1993 to
pump leachate to tanker trucks which transported leachate to the Indian River County
West Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility.
In late 1993, the SWDD entered into an agreement with the Indian River County
Wastewater Department for direct forcemain conveyance of leachate to the West
Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. The SWDD contracted to install a six-inch
diameter forcemain on Rangeline Road to Oslo Road, connecting into the existing Oslo
Road forcemain. Beginning in February, 1994, the SWDD began to pump an average of
F-15

190,000 gallons per month of leachate to the wastewater treatment plant. The onsite
leachate forcemain system consists of a 3,100 foot long four -inch diameter forcemain
from the Segment 2 pump station to a manhole near the new
maintenance/administration building. This manhole also collects sanitary waste from
the new maintenance/administration building. The four -inch forcemain is equipped
with a magnetic flow meter which will provides instantaneous flow readings and
totalizes flows. From the manhole, the leachate and sanitary waste flow to a regional
lift stations on Rangeline Road which repump the waste towards the regional
wastewater treatment plant.
The existing Segment 2 leachate collection/conveyance system includes twelve 6 -inch
diameter perforated leachate laterals with solid pipe end segments, eight leachate
collection manholes, an eight -inch diameter solid pipe header to drain the western half
of the system, eight -inch and 10 -inch diameter headers to collect leachate from the
eastern half, a header junction manhole, and the leachate pump station/sump. Each of
the collection manholes receive leachate from three laterals, and empty to the gravity
header system. The header pipes drain by gravity to a pump station wet well. The
manholes have grouted bottom surfaces for smooth flow-through. No valves are
located in the manholes for leachate shut-off.
The Segment 2 leachate collection system is currently accessible for cleaning through
the eight collection manholes (four to the east, four to the west) and the wet well. The
four western manholes will be removed due to the infill expansion. The collection pipes
will be connected directly to the leachate header without manholes. Until infill
construction begins, the manholes should be inspected as a preventative maintenance
practice to assess the amount of sediment collected in the manholes and the header
system. The manholes should be cleaned if sediment buildup impedes leachate
entering the manhole or leachate entering the header pipes. If leachate flow into one

manhole is absent or flow volume is noticeably decreased, the situation should be
investigated. Possible reasons for low or no flow are lateral collapse or more likely,
lateral blockage due to soil or sediment. Each of the three laterals entering the affected
manhole will need to be visually observed to determine which one(s) are blocked. If
pipe blockage is identified, the lateral can be power jetted to remove sediment buildup.
Power jetting or rodding should be done from the east end of the lateral, and the
influent and effluent header pipe at the manhole in which the rodding is taking place,
should be temporarily plugged. Any sediment should be pumped out of the manhole.
Removed sediment should be disposed in the landfill, and leachate/backwash water
should be pumped to a downstream manhole, or to the leachate pump station.
The Indian River County Utilities Department is responsible for maintenance of the
leachate pump station, meter, forcemain, and other onsite lift stations. They maintain
the float system for pump control, the electrical system, submersible pumps, and valves.
A flow meter has been installed on the discharge line from the leachate pump stations.
The Utilities Department shall insure that the leachate flow meter remains calibrated
and is in proper operating condition at all times. Leachate flows shall be read daily
with the amount of leachate recorded by landfill personnel. This will allow
determination of leachate production as a function of rainfall, and provide information
to assess the efficiency of cover and stormwater management practices. The monthly
leachate flow shall be reported with the monitoring facility report. Leachate
generation/flow records shall be kept at the landfill as part of the official operation
record.
If leachate volume exceeds the 190,000 gallon per month average flow limit, the SWDD
will have the option to purchase additional capacity at the subregional wastewater

treatment plant. The Indian River County Landfill shall be operated using proper cover
procedures and efficient stormwater diversion techniques to minimize the generation of
leachate.
Leachate is sampled and analyzed on a semi-annual basis, in order to determine the
concentration and type of leachate constituents discharged to the wastewater treatment
plant, and to meet Chapter 62-701 reporting requirements. If Indian River County
implements a wastewater pretreatment program, the SWDD will arrange for pilot plant
testing to determine the best treatment technology to meet pretreatment standards.
Most pretreatment ordinances or agreements state that the pretreatment standards shall
be met prior to discharge to the public system. If pretreatment is required, the
industrial wastewater pretreatment should occur at the landfill facility.
Lateral Expansion Leachate Collection/Conveyance System
This section provides a description of the leachate collection/conveyance system
designed for the lined lateral expansion area proposed to be located between existing
Segment 1 and 2. The footprint area of the new system will be approximately 200 feet
wide by 1,100 feet long or about 5.0 acres. The leachate collection system will also
collect and convey leachate from solid waste placed over a vertical expansion liner
placed on the eastern slope of Segment 1. The area protected by the Segment 1 slope
liner is approximately 300 feet by 1,100 feet (projected area) or 7.5 acres.
The sideslope leachate conveyance system shall consist of two feet of protective sand
having a permeability greater than 1.0 (10r cm/sec placed directly over the liner. The
leachate from the sideslope liner will sheet flow onto the geomembrane liner of the
horizontal expansion composite liner where it will be collected by an 8 -inch diameter
perforated pipe, located at the west edge of the horizontal expansion area. This
F-18
collection pipe will convey the flow to a header located at the north end of the infill
segment. An eight -inch diameter header will be also be located on the eastern edge of
the horizontal expansion area. All north -south collection laterals will be sloped to the
north at a minimum 0.4 percent pre -settlement slope to provide positive post -settlement
drainage. The geomembrane liner will be underlain by a layer of clay of adequate
thickness and permeability to meet the requirements of Table A of 62-701.400(3)(b)(2).
The proposed leachate collection system is depicted on Sheet C-5 of the infill segment
plan set. The header empties into a Segment 2 junction manhole, which empties to the
leachate pump station. The area served by the pump station increases from 27 acres to
39 acres. Preventative inspections will be done on an annual basis with cleaning of the
Segment 2 laterals performed on a bi-annual basis, if needed. Maintenance of the infill
segment leachate collection system will be similar to the procedures used for the
existing Segment 2 system. Cleanouts for each of the two leachates are provided on
upstream and downstream ends. A cleanout is provided for the collection system
manifold at the north berm of the lateral expansion area.
Construction of the lateral expansion liner will cover the western manholes of the
Segment 2 leachate collection system. The manholes will be replaced by a direct piping
system. These leachate collection laterals for Segment 2 can be cleaned by power
rod/power jet equipment from the eastern manholes, if necessary. Specialized
equipment is available on a contractual basis for cleaning six-inch perforated pipes up
to 1,200 feet in length. The following vendors are able to perform cleaning of the
collection laterals from one end:

truck leachate to the offsite wastewater treatment plant. If the West Subregional Plant
will not accept leachate, it will be trucked to the North County WWTP or the Gifford
septage treatment facility. Leachate can temporarily be stored in the landfill cells over
the liner with notification of an emergency to the FDEP.

LANDFILL GAS MONITORING
Gas monitoring and control systems shall be designed to prevent explosions and fires,
minimize offsite odors, and damage to vegetation. The explosive range of methane is 5
percent to 15 percent by volume. The lower explosive limit is generally accepted to be 5
percent. Chapter 17-701 regulations state that the concentration of methane and other
gases shall not exceed the LEL at the property boundary or exceed 25 percent of the
LEL (1.25 percent by volume) in onsite and offsite structures, excluding gas control or
gas recovery components.
Currently, gas management consists of 12 passive vents installed on the closed Segment
1 landfill and monthly gas monitoring at six locations on the north, west, and south
edges of Segment 1. The location of existing gas monitoring wells is shown on Figure 3-
4 of the infill segment permit application. Four wells located at 90 -foot elevations on
the east slope of Segment 1 will be modified and extended to the top surface of Segment
1. Gas under the infill sideslope liner is not expected to be a problem as the Segment 1
landfill is cleared with a clay cap which will be left intact under the sideslope liner.
As additional solid waste disposal areas are developed to the east of Segment 1, the
existing gas monitoring well system will be expanded. There is minimal potential for
gas migration since the landfill liners are installed at grade, and the Class I disposal area
is surrounded by ditches which intercept the groundwater table. The only way the gas
could migrate into surrounding soils is through a damaged liner or the leachate
collection system.
Although the potential for landfill gas migration is limited, state and federal regulations
require landfill gas monitoring at the landfill boundary. Ten gas monitoring wells are
currently installed. Four additional gas monitoring wells have been constructed, one
F-23
;VA,
m

along the north boundary of Segment 2, one along the south edge of Segment 2, and
two wells adjacent to and east of Segment 2. The location of existing gas monitoring
wells are shown on Figure 3-3 (plot plan) of the infill expansion permit application.
The south boundary of the landfill is approximately 1,200 feet from the Segment 1 and •
Segment 2 filled area. The stormwater management ponds located south of the filled
areas buffer the site boundary, and no gas monitoring wells are proposed along the
south border for the next 10 years. If a Class 1 landfill is constructed (10 plus years into
the future) in the south central part of the site, gas monitoring may be required due to
the proximity of the Indian River Correctional Facility.
Current state and federal regulations require quarterly monitoring of methane
concentration in enclosed structures located on the landfill. Enclosed structures on the
landfill include the existing scalehouse, landfill office, storage building (next to the
HHW facility) and enclosed sheds. The planned administration/maintenance building
will also require quarterly monitoring when completed, and occupied. Results of
methane monitoring shall be submitted to the FDEP quarterly.

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
A description of the existing stormwater system for Segment 1 and Segment 2 prior to
the infill expansion is provided in this section. The stormwater modifications required
for the infill expansion are discussed in detail. The existing stormwater management
system consists of a series of perimeter and internal ditches which are used to convey
surface water runoff from solid waste disposal and operational areas to a 16 -acre
stormwater pond. The ditches are generally shallow (2 to 5 feet) and vary in width
from 10 to 40 feet to provide adequate conveyance. Bottom ditch elevations are from 19
to 25 feet NGVD. Installed conduits consist of 12, 24, and 36 -inch diameter corrugated
metal pipe. Runoff from Segments 1 and 2 is conveyed through five sets of double
pipes (24 -inch) diameter into the stormwater pond. Runoff from the north central
portion of the site is conveyed by ditches to the northwest corner of the stormwater
pond. Runoff from the operations building area is routed southward, then westward
through an existing wetland area to the southeast corner of the stormwater pond.
Stormwater from the C&D debris is conveyed westward, then northward to the culvert
on the eastern bank of the stormwater pond.
The stormwater pond, located just south of Segment 1 is a former borrow pond. This
pond is 20 to 25 feet in depth and is steeply sloped due to its former use. The pond is
kept artificially low, compared to the surrounding groundwater table by the pumping
drawdown of an adjacent borrow pit pond, located south of the stormwater pond. The
stormwater pond runoff is filtered things to soil berm which separates the stormwater
pond from the borrow pond.
The borrow pond is mined to obtain soil material and shell material for landfill
operations and temporary onsite road construction. This pond initiated in 1988, has
41053

been excavated to a depth of 20 to 25 feet, and also has steep sideslopes. The easily
available borrow has been removed and only small quantities of soil and shell rock are
presently being excavated.
The borrow pond water surface is drawn down by pumping to an elevation of 10 to 15
feet NGVD to remove soil and shell rock. The borrow pond drawdown lowers the
adjacent stormwater pond to a water level in the range of 12 to 20 feet NGVD, resulting
in significant stormwater storage volume in the stormwater pond. The borrow
operation has been continuous since its inception, and the stormwater pond has never
discharged directly to the stormwater control weir located on the Indian River Farms
Water Control District C-6 canal.
Pump discharge from the borrow pump is routed through a series of sedimentation
basins, which allows turbidity to settle, prior to release to a culvert leading to the C-6
canal upstream of the stormwater pond discharge weir.
Construction and filling of the infill segment results in a significant modification to the
existing Segment 1 and Segment 2 stormwater systems. The modified stormwater
control system is comprised of an interim stormwater diversion system on the east
sideslope of Segment 1 and west sideslope of Segment 2; and permanent modifications
of perimeter ditches, and culverts. Permanent letdown structures and pipe will be
installed in phases on the north, east and south sideslopes of infill segment and
Segment 2.
•
Interim Stormwater Systems (Segment 1 east sideslope)
The proper upslope diversion of stormwater collected over the sideslope liner is crucial
in the success of solid waste filling operations in the infill segment and for the
minimization of leachate. The sideslope liner will be installed by a contractor, and a
minimum of two feet of protective sand will be placed over the HDPE liner to elevation
40 feet NGVD. The portion of the sideslope liner above 40 feet NGVD will not be
covered with sand during the initial construction project. The side anchor berms of the
sideslope liner will have pipe penetrations of approximate elevations 40, 50, 60, 70, 80,
and 90 feet NGVD for removal of collected stormwater. One pipe penetration will be
installed at north and south anchor berms of the sideslope liner at the above referenced
elevations. The Contractor will install a diversion dam made of interlocking concrete
traffic barriers at the lower edge of the 40 foot elevation 6:1 slope ledge. The traffic
barrier diversion dam is to be placed on a minimum 16 ounce geotextile or a friction
pad over the textured liner. The sand layer will be increased to a minimum height of 3
feet downslope of the traffic barriers to provide stability.
Precipitation falling in the sideslope liner will be collected in a north -south channel
immediately upslope of the traffic barriers. The channel will be sloped from the center
of the sideslope liner toward the north and south liner anchor berms. The channel will
discharge through the pipe penetrations located at the 40-, 50-, 60-, 70-, 80-, and 90 -foot
elevations. The pipes exiting the sideslope berm connect to letdown pipes buried in the
sideslope liner berm. The letdown pipes discharge to manhole structures which will
empty either to the north Segment 1 perimeter ditch or the stormwater pond.
A 24 -inch diameter smooth wall HDPE pipe is used for the Segment 1 northeast corner
letdown. The 24 -inch pipe letdown will be part of the permanent stormwater control
system following filling of the infill. A riser inlet will intercept stormwater runoff for a

small slope area between the north sideslope liner berm and the relocated Segment 1
access/maintenance road. A 30 -inch diameter smooth wall HDPE pipe is used for the
south letdown. This letdown pipe on the southeast corner of Segment 1 will remove
stormwater from the top surface of Segment 1, and from about 2.5 acres of the top
surface of the infill. This pipe will permanently drain these areas. The bottom
structures at the terminus of the northern letdown will be used for an additional future
letdown pipe which conveys stormwater from the south sideslopes of the infill.
Operational Procedure for Relocating Sideslope Liner Diversion Das
As filling progresses, the SWDD will relocate the diversion dams at 10 -foot vertical
intervals. The horizontal displacement will be 30 to 40 feet. Removal of the diversion
dam traffic barriers will require a crane. The crane should have at least a 40- to 50 -foot
reach and a minimum lifting capacity of 10,000 pounds. The weight of each traffic
barrier is approximately 5,000 pounds.
Relocation of traffic barriers should be scheduled for drier periods of the year (October
through June) if possible. If barriers must be relocated during the wet season, only one
side of the diversion dam (north or south half) should be relocated at a time. If
inclement weather is expected, only the width of barriers which can be relocated in one
day should be removed. Removal of barriers should be from the middle portion of the
existing line of barriers toward the sideslope anchor berm. Replacement should be
from the sideslope anchor toward the center portion of the sideslope liner. This
procedure will ensure that barriers on the lower terrace are in place adjacent to the pipe
penetrations, providing at least a partial diversion channel. The lower pipe penetration
must be properly removed from service and the pipe end cap secured with stainless
steel bands when the next upper diversion dam is ready for operation.

The relocation procedure should be performed in the following order:
1. When there is still a 6- to 8 -foot length of sand below the barrier, order sand to be
brought in by dump truck. Approximately 3,500 cubic yards will be needed for
the area between the 40- and 50 -foot elevation. Arrange for delivery a few days
in advance of removal of the traffic barriers. Dump sand along the length of
barriers to be relocated to provide a staging "ridge" 4 to 5 feet high.
2. Using a crane, remove the length of barriers to be relocated, placing them over
solid waste within the swing radius of the crane at the same length as the
transition length between barrier elevations (30 to 40 feet). Remove protective
geotextile (16 ounces geotextile or friction pad) if easy to remove. If difficult to
remove due to sand over geotextile, smooth geotextile manually as much as
possible.
3. Place 3 -foot long section of 12 -inch to 24 -inch diameter pipe with 6 -inch marked
intervals in a vertical position at 10 -foot intervals in one section of the sideslope
liner. The pipes will be used as temporary grading "stakes."
4. Using a small track -mounted dozer, begin spreading the sand ridge up the slope
achieving at least a 2.5 -foot thickness. Take sand off the working ridge for
spreading, never allowing the working ridge to be thinner in depth than 3 feet.
Replenish the working ridge with new dump truck loads as sand is being
worked up the ridge. Place sand up the slope in about 10 -foot extensions to the
previous edge of sand, then work laterally north to south or south to north.
Repeat this procedure until the upper edge of sand is approximately 30 feet
upslope from the last location of the traffic barriers. Carefully place sand to
provide a horizontal edge which can be used to butt against the traffic barriers.

5. When a sufficient length of sand (about 60 feet) has been spread 30 to 35 feet
above the previous barrier location, place 16 ounce geotextile or friction pad at
the edge of sand to protect the geomembrane. Prior to placing the geotextile,
clean any sand away which would be under the geotextile. The geotextile should
be placed parallel to and about a foot downslope of the upper penetration pipe
location.
6. Relocate the crane to the upslope edge of the solid waste filled area. Using the
crane with adequate spotters and placement personnel, gently set the traffic
barriers over the protective geotextile. The traffic barriers have interlocking
tongue and groove joints, and may need to be positioned using guide ropes.
7. Pipe sand behind traffic barrier to a minimum height of 3 feet. Remove end cap
from current level pipe penetration. Save cap for future use to permanently close
the penetration pipe.
Segment 2 Partial Closure Letdown System
As part of the infill segment construction, eight letdown pipes will be installed around
the perimeter of Segment 2 (north, east, and south sides) to deliver stormwater from the
bench terraces to the perimeter ditch. The ditch is being widened to a 12 -foot bottom
width on the north side of Segment 2 and to a bottom width of 15 feet on the east and
south sides.
The letdown system consists of two riser inlets at each terrace. These inlets connect to a
24 -inch HDPE letdown pipe (SDR 32.5) via 12 -inch HDPE pipe. Riser inlets are 30 -inch
diameter pipe, 36 inches high, and have aluminum edge frames for strength. Each riser
pipe is installed with a thrust block to provide stability. The area where the letdown
„O„ F-30
pipe crosses a terrace is bermed to provide at least two feet of protective cover over the
pipe. The berm over the letdown pipe is sloped so that stormwater runoff flows to the
riser inlets.
Initial closure phase letdown pipes will be installed to the 55 -foot terrace. The end of
the 24 -inch diameter HDPE letdown pipe will have an end cap to cover the upslope
pipe end. Future extension is accomplished by fuse -welding an additional section of
pipe to the next terrace.
Maintenance Procedures for Segment 1, Infill and Segment 2 Letdown Structures
To ensure proper performance, the stormwater letdown systems for the Segment
1/Segment 2 mound must be inspected at least on a quarterly basis and after each major
stormwater event (greater than three inches).
The letdowns on the northwest and southwest corner of Segment 1 are open flumes.
These flumes and the uniform section mat channels which convey stormwater should
be inspected for debris, possible blockage, and cracking. If debris which impedes flow
is located, it should be removed promptly. If the uniform section mat is damaged, it
should be grouted and repaired, or a new section should be "pieced" in. It is very
important to check the uniform section mat conveyance system for undermining and
erosion. Special attention should be given to the junction of terrace lateral ditches and
the letdown channel, and to the terminal end of the letdown at the perimeter ditch.
The Segment 2 letdown system and the infill segment letdowns use the same closed
pipe design. The entrance aprons to the riser inlets should be checked regularly for
744:4 'n kt7. isi�v}a1 IT Y t
F-31
undermining and erosion. The uniform section mat and riprap used as an apron to the
inlets may require periodic repair. The inlet area must be kept free of debris, soil
buildup, or grass clippings, which will tend to accumulate at these locations.
The surface of the landfill cap should be inspected at least on a quarterly basis to ensure
that the pipes remain covered with at least two feet of soil, and that the pipes have not
shifted. It is very important to pipe integrity that the pipe bedding soils remain intact.
A perimeter ditch terminal structure is located at the bottom of each letdown (except
the infill segment letdown pipes). These structures should be inspected on a monthly
basis in conjunction with normal landfill maintenance. The outfall structure apron
should be inspected for undermining and erosion. The FDOT energy dissipation
structure has a sump behind the baffle which should be inspected and cleaned as
needed. Due to the large velocities of the stormwater, only large rock or debris should
settle in the sump.
The existing stormwater management system needs to be maintained to assure efficient
renewal of runoff from solid waste deposition and operation/activity areas. Best
management practices (BMPs) and maintenance procedures are described below.
$tormwater Best Management Practices
The basis for any stormwater O&M plan is the implementation of accepted and proven
BMPs. BMPs are defined as a schedule of activities, prohibition of practices,
maintenance procedures, and other management practices to prevent the pollution of
surface and groundwater. BMPs also include treatment requirements, operating
procedures, and procedures to prevent site runoff, spillage or leaks, waste or sludge

until good grass cover or other vegetation is established. The SWDD schedules
"policing" of blowing solid waste on the site and on the property and roads in the
vicinity of the site. Litter fences are installed adjacent to the active area to limit the
amount of wind-blown solid waste outside of the working fence area. These measures
prevent the introduction of solid waste into the stormwater collection/conveyance
systems.
The importance of good vegetative cover on slopes of the Segment 1 the infill segment,
and the Segment 2 landfill to prevent erosion cannot be overemphasized. The final
cover layer components installed on the sideslopes at these segments are engineered to
limit the amount of infiltration and subsequent production of leachate. The sideslope
vegetation also retards the overland flow velocity of stormwater runoff. The top
vegetation is designed to hold the upper foot of soil (non -barrier layer soil) together,
protecting the barrier layer and geonet drainage system underneath. Vegetation also
transpires moisture from the drainage layer reducing subsurface saturation. The
vegetation cover layer, especially on the 3:1 to 4:1 slopes of landfill cells must be
maintained to encourage root development for erosion control. The slopes should be
mowed as needed to encourage vigorous growth and to limit the introduction of bushes
and other brush.
Conveyance ditches vary in size from terrace ditches on the Segment 1 solid waste cell
sideslopes (2 to 3 feet wide) to the perimeter ditches (12 to 30 feet wide) at the bottom of
the landfill. Conveyance ditch maintenance is necessary to assure that local runoff is
collected efficiently and routed to the perimeter ditches, internal ditches, and the
stormwater pond.
F-34
ice'.
v. ,.
Drainage ditches will be used during construction of cells and lifts. The filling of solid
waste in conformance with the lift sequence and the filling plan is an ongoing
construction project. Therefore, the drainage ditches near the active solid waste
deposition area will require greater maintenance to insure their continued efficient
operation. Ditches should be inspected at minimum intervals of one month or after a 4 -
inch
inch storm event. Stone, fill material, siltation, and plant growth should be periodically
cleared from all ditches to remove any obstruction to flow. If erosion occurs on the
sideslopes or bottom of the ditches, they should be repaired and reconstructed to their
original (design) configuration.
Culverts should be inspected monthly and after every rainfall event which exceeds four
inches. The inspection should include a visual check for undermining of aprons and
approach channels, undermining around the culvert, excessive erosion of the approach
section, and sedimentation near the exit of the culvert.
The stormwater management pond will require general maintenance to insure proper
operation. This general maintenance will include, but not be limited to, repairing any
portion of the pond which may become eroded due to extreme surface water runoff
flows, keeping discharge pipes clear of sediment or obstructions, and maintaining
vegetative growth on the sideslopes, where possible.
Surface Water Drainage Control System
The operation of a sanitary landfill requires that particular attention be paid to the
handling of surface runoff during initial site preparation and interim landfill phases, as
well as for the completed landfill. Water that percolates through the surface of a
sanitary landfill, and comes in contact with decomposing refuse, can result in the
generation of leachate. In order to reduce the amount of leachate that is generated and
vireo F-35

minimize the possibility of groundwater and surface water contamination at the
landfill, water from tributary drainage areas is diverted around solid waste deposition
areas.
The landfill surface is to be properly graded to avoid pockets of standing water which
could leach through the disposed waste, and should be adequately sloped to promote
surface runoff. A network of landfill surface drainage swales/berms has been shown
on the Operating Sequence Plans. These drainage swales/berms are to be constructed a
minimum of one-half percent grade on intermediate or final cover, as appropriate, as
soon as the designated area is brought to the grades shown. It is very important for
proper surface water runoff, that future landfill sideslopes be constructed with the
terraces shown on Figures 3-3 and 3-4 of the infill segment permit application. On
interim working surfaces between terraces, a minimum slope of 2 percent should be
used with daily cover to encourage surface runoff. Permanent letdown pipes and inlet
riser will be installed as each portion of the landfill undergoes formal closure.
Berms are an essential element in preventing stormwater runon from outside the
landfill, and to provide the sideslopes of many of the major ditches and ponds. Berms
also provide controlled storage within the stormwater pond and delineate the south,
north, and west perimeter ditches.
Minor berms are grassed on the top surface and sodded with Pensacola bahia grass on
the sideslopes from the top of the slope to the normal design water level. The top
surface of perimeter berms and other major berms are used as roads. Most sideslopes
are 3:1 slopes or 4:1 slopes. The berms should be closely inspected at least quarterly to
insure that no erosion, undermining, or sloughing has occurred. Any holes or breaks in
the soil cement roads should be promptly repaired.

Terraces are provided on the sideslopes of the Segment 1 and proposed for closure of
the infill segment and Segment 2 to minimize the length of overland flow and reduce
flow velocities. The terraces on the infill segment and Segment 2 are sloped inward
toward the upper sideslopes, creating shallow ditches. The terrace ditches convey
stormwater runoff to the inlet risers and down the letdown pipes. The grassed terraces
must be well maintained with vigorous growing grass to retard sideslope flow and to
hold the transitional edge to steeper sideslopes. The terraces should be inspected at
least quarterly, or after a four -inch rainfall event and repaired as needed. Terrace
mowing should be performed as needed to maintain a vigorous Pensacola bahia grass
cover.
Letdown Structure Inspection and Maintenance
Stormwater management for the north, south, and east sideslopes closed Segment 1 is
accomplished by terrace ditches on the benches located at elevation 40, 60, and 80 feet
NGVD. The terrace ditches flow to two open flume letdown channels located on the
northwest nd southwest corners. The top surface is drained by the closed conduit
system located on the southeast corner. Eight closed conduits will be used for the
closure of Segment 2. An additional two closed conduit letdown pipes will be installed,
one on each of the north and south slopes of the lateral expansion area between
Segment 1 and Segment 2.
Section -mat -lined terrace ditches on Segment 1 flow to the open flume letdown
channels. The flumes, located on the northwest and southwest corners of Segment 1 are
lined with concrete filled soil mat for erosion protection. The Segment 1 flume letdown
structures terminate at the bottom ditch. The bottom ditch is also lined with concrete -
filled section mat and riprap for erosion protection.

Inspections of the terrace ditches, and open flumes should be conducted on a quarterly
basis and after a major storm event (four inches or more). Maintenance consists of the
repair of erosion near the riser inlet structure and removal of sediment accumulation
near the entrance area from the sideslope ditches to the flume and closed conduit
letdowns.
Inspections should also be conducted at the terminal end of the Segment 1 letdown
pipes at the lined energy dissipation area in the bottom ditch. The bottom ditch lining
should be checked for undermining, settlement, and structural integrity. Inspection
should be done quarterly and after a four -inch rain event. Appropriate repairs should
be implemented as needed. The energy dissipation area of the ditch should also be
checked for sediment, especially if there is evidence of slope erosion, washout, or soil
sloughing on the upper slopes or terraces. Maintenance of the infill segment interim
and permanent stormwater management systems is discussed earlier under "Infill
Segment Modifications to Existing Stormwater Systems."
