Week ending April 15, 2006
The landfill gas collection and treatment is operating efficiently.
The gas is being used to run the asphalt hot oil heat transfer burner,
which is used to keep the asphalt mixture melted.
The contact water collection and treatment at the two seep areas
continues to flow at 15 gpm each, but plans are to increase the flow
rate to 40 gpm to increase the rate of landfill de-watering.
The five hydrogen sulfide meters for landfill perimeter air
monitoring showed no hydrogen sulfide detections above 10 parts per
billion (lowest detection level for the sensors) the last 10 days. The
three source interior hydrogen sulfide meters have not detected any
hydrogen sulfide levels at or near the 10 parts per million (lowest
detection level for the sensors) threshold alarm level.
