Title

Waring's Dump Soil Cap Project

Description

The proposed project would result in grading and compaction of the existing hummocky terrain and the importation of select fill soils for placement as a compacted soil cap over the existing waste footprint. Existing ground elevations vary from 29 feet to 33 feet above mean sea level (MSL). Preliminary surface grading and compaction would be conducted to stabilize the project site into a uniform surface, graded to drain stormwater off the waste mound. The depth to which preliminary grading would occur would be minimized so as to leave buried wastes undisturbed and in place to the extent possible. Any debris unearthed during the grading would be reburied such that no materials protrude from the graded surface. No debris or soil is intended to be exported offsite. However, if there are some bulky items, such as car bodies or refrigerators, unearthed that cannot be graded within the proposed waste mound, they would be removed and either recycled or disposed of at a proper disposal site.
