recommendationsInitial

Begin discussions with regulators and surrounding property owners

Install landfill gas (LFG) probes between the refuse and proposed developments

Perform a grid pattern sweep for surface emissions of LFG (include adjacent structures and crawl spaces)

recommendationsSecondary

Determine groundwater status

Confirm the property lines by survey

Perform investigations for limits of refuse by test pits or borings

Post warning signs around perimeter

Place temporary cover on exposed waste

Evaluate the need (both from regulations and practical health and safety) for a landfill gas collectionand/or treatment

recommendationsFollowing

Clear trees and brush from waste areas

Delineate wetlands

Establish positive drainage and sediment and erosion control

All structures existing or proposed on or within 1000 feet of the landfill should have buildingprotection systems installed. These can be designed into the building with little impact.
