July 2009
-
An estimated 2,008,800 cubic feet of landfill gas removed and
treated in July.
-
An estimated 1,948,166 gallons of contact water (water that has
seeped through the landfill and accumulated underneath the landfill)
and well water were removed and treated in July.
-
The
operation of the hydrogen sulfide monitoring system was evaluated in
July by Detection Instruments personnel. A modem had been replaced
earlier in the year and the settings were modified to more precisely
correspond with the new modem. A plan is being prepared to replace
certain components of the system based on estimated life. There
were two issues with the perimeter monitors in the past month. The
infrared communications port went down on one of the monitors and
the battery went flat on one of the monitors. Two replacement
monitors were obtained and installed so these issues could be
resolved. Operating procedures are being modified to use a volt
meter to check batteries before installation to make sure the
batteries are good. If the monitor indicates dead battery, that
battery will be removed and checked again to determine if there was
an issue with the battery or the monitor.
