July 2007
No odor complaints received by APAC, Johnson County or KDHE.
- No detectable readings at the ambient air monitors.
- Heavy rains at the end of June and beginning of July amounted to more than 10
inches at the APAC site causing high water at the lower pond. The
telemetry system at the West Seep location was impacted by water.
The hydrogen sulfide monitor was cleaned and checked and continued
to log data. The telemetry system that transmits data from the
monitor to the safety building was removed, rebuilt, and
reinstalled. During the time that the system was being rebuilt the
remaining seven monitors and two telemetry systems continued to
operate properly. The monitor at the West Seep was checked
regularly by Stinson Environmental Group personnel and no hydrogen
sulfide was recorded.
- Average landfill gas concentration in July: Methane 35.5%; hydrogen sulfide 35-40
parts per million (ppm).
- An estimated 2,008,800 cubic feet of landfill gas was removed and treated in
July.
- An estimated 2,688,000 gallons of contact water (water that has
seeped through the landfill and accumulated underneath the landfill)
and 188,866 gallons of well water (installed in April, 2007 in the
southwest corner of landfill) were removed and treated in July.
