Attention Mr John Weichsel L
m Dear Mr Weichsel
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA GeoEnviroimiental Inc and GZA Remediation Inc have conducted a pilot methane extraction program to assess the potential feasibility of extracting methane from soil gas above the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (aka Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut The purpose of this report was to assess whether extraction via a trench system is a potentially viable technology to limit potential methane migration into existing structures from the subsurface in the event that such actions become warranted Results of this pilot program are discussed below This report is subject to the limitations contained in Appendix Ashy
BACKGROUND
Methane gas is generated primarily by decomposition of organic matter in a low oxygen enviroimient Normally the methane gas diffuses through the pervious soils above the disposed organic material eventually dispersing into the atmosphere However if a low permeability or an impervious layer of soil pavement concrete or ^ gtshyother structures restricts the migration of the gas it can become trapped below this ^ ^ layer pr-
Previous Gas Testing by DEP
CAn investigation of gases at the former Old Turnpike Road Landfill was initially c conducted on January 18 1982 by Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) officials Measurements of combustible gas were taken in and aroimd four buildings located on the landfill utilizing a Scott D-15 Gas Tester calibrated on natural gas No gas was detected within the four buildings tested however readings ranging from 2 to 3-V2 gas were recorded beneath the concrete floor slab located at 455 Old Tmnpike Road The DEP report notes that these values are below the lower explosive limit of methane

Gas Testing by GZA
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA performed a two phase gas testing program at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill First readings of methane concentration were taken on November 27 and December 3 1985 by GZA personnel using a Scott Model D-15 Model Gas Tester calibrated to methane Readings were taken in the interiors of 455 477 and 495 Old Turnpike Road Southington These readmgs summarized on Table 1 did not indicate detectable quantities of methane in open areas of any building tested However within the RV amp Sons welding shop (455 Old Turnpike Road) air-borne concentrations of methane up to 23 were detected m a floor crack in the southwest comer of the building In addition readings of 12 and 02 methane in air were obtained from a (previously closed) closet and a bathroom area respectively These readings were taken after the buildmg had been empty and locked for approximately 36 hoiu-s The highest detected air concentration of methane (23) is below the lower explosive limit (LEL) of methane in air (LEL = 53) The presence of methane vapors beneath the RV amp Sons welding shop agreed with past DEP findings
As a second phase of methane assessment four borings (B-1 B-2 B-3 B-4) were drilled on March 201986 by East Coast Drilling Inc of Wallingford Connecticut at locations designated by GZA Borings were drilled using hollow-stem augers and a gas monitoring well was installed in each boring Gas monitoring wells consist of a 2-inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) screen and casing Each well screen was placed from 3 feet below ground to the base of the boring The screens are located such that gases viithin both saturated and unsaturated material can enter the well screen Each gas monitoring well was capped with a PVC push-on cap to limit atmospheric influence in the well and promote a confined environment
Measurements of explosive gases including methane were taken at these gas monitoring wells and in nearby groundwater monitor wells Readings were initially taken by GZA on four occasions in 1986 Results are presented on Table 2 along with the instrumentation used to measure methane
The results presented on Table 2 show that methane was not detected in groimdwater (S- ^ n^onitoring wfllii Invntfid beyond the Ijinits of the landfill Methane was detected at l Cconcentration of 01 in air within gas momtormg well B-1 at concentrations of 5 to 20 in gas monitoring well B-2 and at concentrations of 21 to 32 and 61 to 66 in gas monitoring wells B-3 and B-4 respectively The methane readings within the B-series gas monitoring wells represent the concentration of methane present in the soil pore space under conditions measured at the time of testing
The concentrations of methane detected in the B-series wells are similar or higher ozv than methane concentrations reported by DEP during sampling performed in November 1981 While the method of sampling by DEP was not specified and likely differed from GZAs procedure the results in generaL-indkate--tbat a prevalent condition of gas entrapment methane generation or both is present beneath the gr^Hgimface at least in the_arfia-teste4- lt^^nr jh jjx m wgc rinsed and capped sinceabout 1967 results seemed to indicate that methane was notfireely venting to the atmosphere
Based on the studies conducted and observations made in 1985 to 1986 GZA concluded that measurable concentrations of meplusmnane were present in floor crack in one building on the former landfill and was present within the pore space in soils beneath the land surface ^
It is om understanding that the Town of Southington had advised land owners on the landfill to include venting systems within each building constructed in this area
Based on the findings discussed above GZA recommended that a test system consisting of one recovery trench initially be installed at the landfill area to assess methane recovery methodology via a trench and efficiency and carbon canister breakthrough patterns
A conceptual design for a pilot system was prepared by Environmental Applications Inc (now GZA Remediation) in June of 1987 as presented in Appendix B
J PILOT VENT SYSTEM SUMMARY
Between June of 1987 and June of 1990 land owner permissions to install the trench J and pilot systems were obtained In addition permissionfirom the Connecticut DEP
Solid Waste Management Division was sought and obtained to disturb the landfill siuface and install the system (see Appendix C for related documentation) The need for an air discharge permit related to pilot system operations was also investigated and was determined to be unnecessary by DEPs Air Compliance Unit (see Appendix C)
In JulyAugust 1990 the extraction trench was installed behind 493 Old Turnpike Road Southington a facility now used by the Town Parks and Recreation

Department The trench location is shown on Figure 1 The system design was substantially the same as that first proposed to the Town in June 1987 by Environmental AppUcations Inc (now QuLK Remediation Inc)
The design consisted of an arc-shaped trench approximately 300 feet in length The trench was excavated with the approval of the Coimecticut Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Unit to the top of the refuse layer As shown in Photographs 1 and 2 in Appendix D refuse and debris are evident in the excavated materials
Approximately six inches of gravel was placed in the base of the trench as shown in Photograph 2 Perforated piping and vent risers were then installed as shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Twelve to twenty-four inches of gravel was placed on top of the piping and the surface of the gravel was sealed with 6 mil polyethylene sheeting The sheeting was extended up the sides of the trench and approximately ten feet to either side of the trench to limit short circuiting of air from the ground surface Finally excavated cover soils materials were used to backfill the trench to grade and cover the sheeting on either side
Pilot System Venting Test
The pilot system consisted of the extraction trench approximately 300 feet in length extending across the rear of 493 Old Turnpike Road to the edge of 477 Old Turnpike Road and an extraction system (vacuum blower activated carbon controls etc) located in a small enclosure nearby to draw a vacuum on the center of the trench The trench mcluded ten vertical access ports and three nearby sets of piezometers to measure methane concentrations (as LEL) and vacuum at different depths and at different distances (0 5 10 and 15 feet) fi-om the trench A schematic
system layout is shown on Figure 2 attached
Controls built into the pilot system included gauges to continuously measure combustible gases as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL)^ before and after the system blower and a controller to monitor LEL levels and automatically shut
the system down in the event that LEL levels exceeded a specified limit The unit was calibrated to shut-down extraction at 30 LEL as a conservative safety precaution
1 Measurements of combustible gas are reported as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of pentane which is the gas to which the device is calibrated Dividing these readings by a conversion factor of 17 veilos provides approximate concentrations for methane The explosive concentration range of methane in air is between 5 and 15 percent 5 percent represents the LEL and 15 percent represents the upper explosive limit (UEL)
GZV
Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Attention Mr John Weichsel L
m Dear Mr Weichsel
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA GeoEnviroimiental Inc and GZA Remediation Inc have conducted a pilot methane extraction program to assess the potential feasibility of extracting methane from soil gas above the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (aka Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut The purpose of this report was to assess whether extraction via a trench system is a potentially viable technology to limit potential methane migration into existing structures from the subsurface in the event that such actions become warranted Results of this pilot program are discussed below This report is subject to the limitations contained in Appendix Ashy
BACKGROUND
Methane gas is generated primarily by decomposition of organic matter in a low oxygen enviroimient Normally the methane gas diffuses through the pervious soils above the disposed organic material eventually dispersing into the atmosphere However if a low permeability or an impervious layer of soil pavement concrete or ^ gtshyother structures restricts the migration of the gas it can become trapped below this ^ ^ layer pr-
Previous Gas Testing by DEP
CAn investigation of gases at the former Old Turnpike Road Landfill was initially c conducted on January 18 1982 by Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) officials Measurements of combustible gas were taken in and aroimd four buildings located on the landfill utilizing a Scott D-15 Gas Tester calibrated on natural gas No gas was detected within the four buildings tested however readings ranging from 2 to 3-V2 gas were recorded beneath the concrete floor slab located at 455 Old Tmnpike Road The DEP report notes that these values are below the lower explosive limit of methane

Gas Testing by GZA
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA performed a two phase gas testing program at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill First readings of methane concentration were taken on November 27 and December 3 1985 by GZA personnel using a Scott Model D-15 Model Gas Tester calibrated to methane Readings were taken in the interiors of 455 477 and 495 Old Turnpike Road Southington These readmgs summarized on Table 1 did not indicate detectable quantities of methane in open areas of any building tested However within the RV amp Sons welding shop (455 Old Turnpike Road) air-borne concentrations of methane up to 23 were detected m a floor crack in the southwest comer of the building In addition readings of 12 and 02 methane in air were obtained from a (previously closed) closet and a bathroom area respectively These readings were taken after the buildmg had been empty and locked for approximately 36 hoiu-s The highest detected air concentration of methane (23) is below the lower explosive limit (LEL) of methane in air (LEL = 53) The presence of methane vapors beneath the RV amp Sons welding shop agreed with past DEP findings
As a second phase of methane assessment four borings (B-1 B-2 B-3 B-4) were drilled on March 201986 by East Coast Drilling Inc of Wallingford Connecticut at locations designated by GZA Borings were drilled using hollow-stem augers and a gas monitoring well was installed in each boring Gas monitoring wells consist of a 2-inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) screen and casing Each well screen was placed from 3 feet below ground to the base of the boring The screens are located such that gases viithin both saturated and unsaturated material can enter the well screen Each gas monitoring well was capped with a PVC push-on cap to limit atmospheric influence in the well and promote a confined environment
Measurements of explosive gases including methane were taken at these gas monitoring wells and in nearby groundwater monitor wells Readings were initially taken by GZA on four occasions in 1986 Results are presented on Table 2 along with the instrumentation used to measure methane
The results presented on Table 2 show that methane was not detected in groimdwater (S- ^ n^onitoring wfllii Invntfid beyond the Ijinits of the landfill Methane was detected at l Cconcentration of 01 in air within gas momtormg well B-1 at concentrations of 5 to 20 in gas monitoring well B-2 and at concentrations of 21 to 32 and 61 to 66 in gas monitoring wells B-3 and B-4 respectively The methane readings within the B-series gas monitoring wells represent the concentration of methane present in the soil pore space under conditions measured at the time of testing
The concentrations of methane detected in the B-series wells are similar or higher ozv than methane concentrations reported by DEP during sampling performed in November 1981 While the method of sampling by DEP was not specified and likely differed from GZAs procedure the results in generaL-indkate--tbat a prevalent condition of gas entrapment methane generation or both is present beneath the gr^Hgimface at least in the_arfia-teste4- lt^^nr jh jjx m wgc rinsed and capped sinceabout 1967 results seemed to indicate that methane was notfireely venting to the atmosphere
Based on the studies conducted and observations made in 1985 to 1986 GZA concluded that measurable concentrations of meplusmnane were present in floor crack in one building on the former landfill and was present within the pore space in soils beneath the land surface ^
It is om understanding that the Town of Southington had advised land owners on the landfill to include venting systems within each building constructed in this area
Based on the findings discussed above GZA recommended that a test system consisting of one recovery trench initially be installed at the landfill area to assess methane recovery methodology via a trench and efficiency and carbon canister breakthrough patterns
A conceptual design for a pilot system was prepared by Environmental Applications Inc (now GZA Remediation) in June of 1987 as presented in Appendix B
J PILOT VENT SYSTEM SUMMARY
Between June of 1987 and June of 1990 land owner permissions to install the trench J and pilot systems were obtained In addition permissionfirom the Connecticut DEP
Solid Waste Management Division was sought and obtained to disturb the landfill siuface and install the system (see Appendix C for related documentation) The need for an air discharge permit related to pilot system operations was also investigated and was determined to be unnecessary by DEPs Air Compliance Unit (see Appendix C)
In JulyAugust 1990 the extraction trench was installed behind 493 Old Turnpike Road Southington a facility now used by the Town Parks and Recreation

Department The trench location is shown on Figure 1 The system design was substantially the same as that first proposed to the Town in June 1987 by Environmental AppUcations Inc (now QuLK Remediation Inc)
The design consisted of an arc-shaped trench approximately 300 feet in length The trench was excavated with the approval of the Coimecticut Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Unit to the top of the refuse layer As shown in Photographs 1 and 2 in Appendix D refuse and debris are evident in the excavated materials
Approximately six inches of gravel was placed in the base of the trench as shown in Photograph 2 Perforated piping and vent risers were then installed as shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Twelve to twenty-four inches of gravel was placed on top of the piping and the surface of the gravel was sealed with 6 mil polyethylene sheeting The sheeting was extended up the sides of the trench and approximately ten feet to either side of the trench to limit short circuiting of air from the ground surface Finally excavated cover soils materials were used to backfill the trench to grade and cover the sheeting on either side
Pilot System Venting Test
The pilot system consisted of the extraction trench approximately 300 feet in length extending across the rear of 493 Old Turnpike Road to the edge of 477 Old Turnpike Road and an extraction system (vacuum blower activated carbon controls etc) located in a small enclosure nearby to draw a vacuum on the center of the trench The trench mcluded ten vertical access ports and three nearby sets of piezometers to measure methane concentrations (as LEL) and vacuum at different depths and at different distances (0 5 10 and 15 feet) fi-om the trench A schematic
system layout is shown on Figure 2 attached
Controls built into the pilot system included gauges to continuously measure combustible gases as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL)^ before and after the system blower and a controller to monitor LEL levels and automatically shut
the system down in the event that LEL levels exceeded a specified limit The unit was calibrated to shut-down extraction at 30 LEL as a conservative safety precaution
1 Measurements of combustible gas are reported as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of pentane which is the gas to which the device is calibrated Dividing these readings by a conversion factor of 17 veilos provides approximate concentrations for methane The explosive concentration range of methane in air is between 5 and 15 percent 5 percent represents the LEL and 15 percent represents the upper explosive limit (UEL)
GZV
Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Attention Mr John Weichsel L
m Dear Mr Weichsel
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA GeoEnviroimiental Inc and GZA Remediation Inc have conducted a pilot methane extraction program to assess the potential feasibility of extracting methane from soil gas above the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (aka Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut The purpose of this report was to assess whether extraction via a trench system is a potentially viable technology to limit potential methane migration into existing structures from the subsurface in the event that such actions become warranted Results of this pilot program are discussed below This report is subject to the limitations contained in Appendix Ashy
BACKGROUND
Methane gas is generated primarily by decomposition of organic matter in a low oxygen enviroimient Normally the methane gas diffuses through the pervious soils above the disposed organic material eventually dispersing into the atmosphere However if a low permeability or an impervious layer of soil pavement concrete or ^ gtshyother structures restricts the migration of the gas it can become trapped below this ^ ^ layer pr-
Previous Gas Testing by DEP
CAn investigation of gases at the former Old Turnpike Road Landfill was initially c conducted on January 18 1982 by Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) officials Measurements of combustible gas were taken in and aroimd four buildings located on the landfill utilizing a Scott D-15 Gas Tester calibrated on natural gas No gas was detected within the four buildings tested however readings ranging from 2 to 3-V2 gas were recorded beneath the concrete floor slab located at 455 Old Tmnpike Road The DEP report notes that these values are below the lower explosive limit of methane

Gas Testing by GZA
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA performed a two phase gas testing program at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill First readings of methane concentration were taken on November 27 and December 3 1985 by GZA personnel using a Scott Model D-15 Model Gas Tester calibrated to methane Readings were taken in the interiors of 455 477 and 495 Old Turnpike Road Southington These readmgs summarized on Table 1 did not indicate detectable quantities of methane in open areas of any building tested However within the RV amp Sons welding shop (455 Old Turnpike Road) air-borne concentrations of methane up to 23 were detected m a floor crack in the southwest comer of the building In addition readings of 12 and 02 methane in air were obtained from a (previously closed) closet and a bathroom area respectively These readings were taken after the buildmg had been empty and locked for approximately 36 hoiu-s The highest detected air concentration of methane (23) is below the lower explosive limit (LEL) of methane in air (LEL = 53) The presence of methane vapors beneath the RV amp Sons welding shop agreed with past DEP findings
As a second phase of methane assessment four borings (B-1 B-2 B-3 B-4) were drilled on March 201986 by East Coast Drilling Inc of Wallingford Connecticut at locations designated by GZA Borings were drilled using hollow-stem augers and a gas monitoring well was installed in each boring Gas monitoring wells consist of a 2-inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) screen and casing Each well screen was placed from 3 feet below ground to the base of the boring The screens are located such that gases viithin both saturated and unsaturated material can enter the well screen Each gas monitoring well was capped with a PVC push-on cap to limit atmospheric influence in the well and promote a confined environment
Measurements of explosive gases including methane were taken at these gas monitoring wells and in nearby groundwater monitor wells Readings were initially taken by GZA on four occasions in 1986 Results are presented on Table 2 along with the instrumentation used to measure methane
The results presented on Table 2 show that methane was not detected in groimdwater (S- ^ n^onitoring wfllii Invntfid beyond the Ijinits of the landfill Methane was detected at l Cconcentration of 01 in air within gas momtormg well B-1 at concentrations of 5 to 20 in gas monitoring well B-2 and at concentrations of 21 to 32 and 61 to 66 in gas monitoring wells B-3 and B-4 respectively The methane readings within the B-series gas monitoring wells represent the concentration of methane present in the soil pore space under conditions measured at the time of testing
The concentrations of methane detected in the B-series wells are similar or higher ozv than methane concentrations reported by DEP during sampling performed in November 1981 While the method of sampling by DEP was not specified and likely differed from GZAs procedure the results in generaL-indkate--tbat a prevalent condition of gas entrapment methane generation or both is present beneath the gr^Hgimface at least in the_arfia-teste4- lt^^nr jh jjx m wgc rinsed and capped sinceabout 1967 results seemed to indicate that methane was notfireely venting to the atmosphere
Based on the studies conducted and observations made in 1985 to 1986 GZA concluded that measurable concentrations of meplusmnane were present in floor crack in one building on the former landfill and was present within the pore space in soils beneath the land surface ^
It is om understanding that the Town of Southington had advised land owners on the landfill to include venting systems within each building constructed in this area
Based on the findings discussed above GZA recommended that a test system consisting of one recovery trench initially be installed at the landfill area to assess methane recovery methodology via a trench and efficiency and carbon canister breakthrough patterns
A conceptual design for a pilot system was prepared by Environmental Applications Inc (now GZA Remediation) in June of 1987 as presented in Appendix B
J PILOT VENT SYSTEM SUMMARY
Between June of 1987 and June of 1990 land owner permissions to install the trench J and pilot systems were obtained In addition permissionfirom the Connecticut DEP
Solid Waste Management Division was sought and obtained to disturb the landfill siuface and install the system (see Appendix C for related documentation) The need for an air discharge permit related to pilot system operations was also investigated and was determined to be unnecessary by DEPs Air Compliance Unit (see Appendix C)
In JulyAugust 1990 the extraction trench was installed behind 493 Old Turnpike Road Southington a facility now used by the Town Parks and Recreation

Department The trench location is shown on Figure 1 The system design was substantially the same as that first proposed to the Town in June 1987 by Environmental AppUcations Inc (now QuLK Remediation Inc)
The design consisted of an arc-shaped trench approximately 300 feet in length The trench was excavated with the approval of the Coimecticut Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Unit to the top of the refuse layer As shown in Photographs 1 and 2 in Appendix D refuse and debris are evident in the excavated materials
Approximately six inches of gravel was placed in the base of the trench as shown in Photograph 2 Perforated piping and vent risers were then installed as shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Twelve to twenty-four inches of gravel was placed on top of the piping and the surface of the gravel was sealed with 6 mil polyethylene sheeting The sheeting was extended up the sides of the trench and approximately ten feet to either side of the trench to limit short circuiting of air from the ground surface Finally excavated cover soils materials were used to backfill the trench to grade and cover the sheeting on either side
Pilot System Venting Test
The pilot system consisted of the extraction trench approximately 300 feet in length extending across the rear of 493 Old Turnpike Road to the edge of 477 Old Turnpike Road and an extraction system (vacuum blower activated carbon controls etc) located in a small enclosure nearby to draw a vacuum on the center of the trench The trench mcluded ten vertical access ports and three nearby sets of piezometers to measure methane concentrations (as LEL) and vacuum at different depths and at different distances (0 5 10 and 15 feet) fi-om the trench A schematic
system layout is shown on Figure 2 attached
Controls built into the pilot system included gauges to continuously measure combustible gases as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL)^ before and after the system blower and a controller to monitor LEL levels and automatically shut
the system down in the event that LEL levels exceeded a specified limit The unit was calibrated to shut-down extraction at 30 LEL as a conservative safety precaution
1 Measurements of combustible gas are reported as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of pentane which is the gas to which the device is calibrated Dividing these readings by a conversion factor of 17 veilos provides approximate concentrations for methane The explosive concentration range of methane in air is between 5 and 15 percent 5 percent represents the LEL and 15 percent represents the upper explosive limit (UEL)
GZV
Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Gas Testing by GZA
At the request of the Town of Southington GZA performed a two phase gas testing program at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill First readings of methane concentration were taken on November 27 and December 3 1985 by GZA personnel using a Scott Model D-15 Model Gas Tester calibrated to methane Readings were taken in the interiors of 455 477 and 495 Old Turnpike Road Southington These readmgs summarized on Table 1 did not indicate detectable quantities of methane in open areas of any building tested However within the RV amp Sons welding shop (455 Old Turnpike Road) air-borne concentrations of methane up to 23 were detected m a floor crack in the southwest comer of the building In addition readings of 12 and 02 methane in air were obtained from a (previously closed) closet and a bathroom area respectively These readings were taken after the buildmg had been empty and locked for approximately 36 hoiu-s The highest detected air concentration of methane (23) is below the lower explosive limit (LEL) of methane in air (LEL = 53) The presence of methane vapors beneath the RV amp Sons welding shop agreed with past DEP findings
As a second phase of methane assessment four borings (B-1 B-2 B-3 B-4) were drilled on March 201986 by East Coast Drilling Inc of Wallingford Connecticut at locations designated by GZA Borings were drilled using hollow-stem augers and a gas monitoring well was installed in each boring Gas monitoring wells consist of a 2-inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) screen and casing Each well screen was placed from 3 feet below ground to the base of the boring The screens are located such that gases viithin both saturated and unsaturated material can enter the well screen Each gas monitoring well was capped with a PVC push-on cap to limit atmospheric influence in the well and promote a confined environment
Measurements of explosive gases including methane were taken at these gas monitoring wells and in nearby groundwater monitor wells Readings were initially taken by GZA on four occasions in 1986 Results are presented on Table 2 along with the instrumentation used to measure methane
The results presented on Table 2 show that methane was not detected in groimdwater (S- ^ n^onitoring wfllii Invntfid beyond the Ijinits of the landfill Methane was detected at l Cconcentration of 01 in air within gas momtormg well B-1 at concentrations of 5 to 20 in gas monitoring well B-2 and at concentrations of 21 to 32 and 61 to 66 in gas monitoring wells B-3 and B-4 respectively The methane readings within the B-series gas monitoring wells represent the concentration of methane present in the soil pore space under conditions measured at the time of testing
The concentrations of methane detected in the B-series wells are similar or higher ozv than methane concentrations reported by DEP during sampling performed in November 1981 While the method of sampling by DEP was not specified and likely differed from GZAs procedure the results in generaL-indkate--tbat a prevalent condition of gas entrapment methane generation or both is present beneath the gr^Hgimface at least in the_arfia-teste4- lt^^nr jh jjx m wgc rinsed and capped sinceabout 1967 results seemed to indicate that methane was notfireely venting to the atmosphere
Based on the studies conducted and observations made in 1985 to 1986 GZA concluded that measurable concentrations of meplusmnane were present in floor crack in one building on the former landfill and was present within the pore space in soils beneath the land surface ^
It is om understanding that the Town of Southington had advised land owners on the landfill to include venting systems within each building constructed in this area
Based on the findings discussed above GZA recommended that a test system consisting of one recovery trench initially be installed at the landfill area to assess methane recovery methodology via a trench and efficiency and carbon canister breakthrough patterns
A conceptual design for a pilot system was prepared by Environmental Applications Inc (now GZA Remediation) in June of 1987 as presented in Appendix B
J PILOT VENT SYSTEM SUMMARY
Between June of 1987 and June of 1990 land owner permissions to install the trench J and pilot systems were obtained In addition permissionfirom the Connecticut DEP
Solid Waste Management Division was sought and obtained to disturb the landfill siuface and install the system (see Appendix C for related documentation) The need for an air discharge permit related to pilot system operations was also investigated and was determined to be unnecessary by DEPs Air Compliance Unit (see Appendix C)
In JulyAugust 1990 the extraction trench was installed behind 493 Old Turnpike Road Southington a facility now used by the Town Parks and Recreation

Department The trench location is shown on Figure 1 The system design was substantially the same as that first proposed to the Town in June 1987 by Environmental AppUcations Inc (now QuLK Remediation Inc)
The design consisted of an arc-shaped trench approximately 300 feet in length The trench was excavated with the approval of the Coimecticut Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Unit to the top of the refuse layer As shown in Photographs 1 and 2 in Appendix D refuse and debris are evident in the excavated materials
Approximately six inches of gravel was placed in the base of the trench as shown in Photograph 2 Perforated piping and vent risers were then installed as shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Twelve to twenty-four inches of gravel was placed on top of the piping and the surface of the gravel was sealed with 6 mil polyethylene sheeting The sheeting was extended up the sides of the trench and approximately ten feet to either side of the trench to limit short circuiting of air from the ground surface Finally excavated cover soils materials were used to backfill the trench to grade and cover the sheeting on either side
Pilot System Venting Test
The pilot system consisted of the extraction trench approximately 300 feet in length extending across the rear of 493 Old Turnpike Road to the edge of 477 Old Turnpike Road and an extraction system (vacuum blower activated carbon controls etc) located in a small enclosure nearby to draw a vacuum on the center of the trench The trench mcluded ten vertical access ports and three nearby sets of piezometers to measure methane concentrations (as LEL) and vacuum at different depths and at different distances (0 5 10 and 15 feet) fi-om the trench A schematic
system layout is shown on Figure 2 attached
Controls built into the pilot system included gauges to continuously measure combustible gases as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL)^ before and after the system blower and a controller to monitor LEL levels and automatically shut
the system down in the event that LEL levels exceeded a specified limit The unit was calibrated to shut-down extraction at 30 LEL as a conservative safety precaution
1 Measurements of combustible gas are reported as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of pentane which is the gas to which the device is calibrated Dividing these readings by a conversion factor of 17 veilos provides approximate concentrations for methane The explosive concentration range of methane in air is between 5 and 15 percent 5 percent represents the LEL and 15 percent represents the upper explosive limit (UEL)
GZV
Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a

oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

The results presented on Table 2 show that methane was not detected in groimdwater (S- ^ n^onitoring wfllii Invntfid beyond the Ijinits of the landfill Methane was detected at l Cconcentration of 01 in air within gas momtormg well B-1 at concentrations of 5 to 20 in gas monitoring well B-2 and at concentrations of 21 to 32 and 61 to 66 in gas monitoring wells B-3 and B-4 respectively The methane readings within the B-series gas monitoring wells represent the concentration of methane present in the soil pore space under conditions measured at the time of testing
The concentrations of methane detected in the B-series wells are similar or higher ozv than methane concentrations reported by DEP during sampling performed in November 1981 While the method of sampling by DEP was not specified and likely differed from GZAs procedure the results in generaL-indkate--tbat a prevalent condition of gas entrapment methane generation or both is present beneath the gr^Hgimface at least in the_arfia-teste4- lt^^nr jh jjx m wgc rinsed and capped sinceabout 1967 results seemed to indicate that methane was notfireely venting to the atmosphere
Based on the studies conducted and observations made in 1985 to 1986 GZA concluded that measurable concentrations of meplusmnane were present in floor crack in one building on the former landfill and was present within the pore space in soils beneath the land surface ^
It is om understanding that the Town of Southington had advised land owners on the landfill to include venting systems within each building constructed in this area
Based on the findings discussed above GZA recommended that a test system consisting of one recovery trench initially be installed at the landfill area to assess methane recovery methodology via a trench and efficiency and carbon canister breakthrough patterns
A conceptual design for a pilot system was prepared by Environmental Applications Inc (now GZA Remediation) in June of 1987 as presented in Appendix B
J PILOT VENT SYSTEM SUMMARY
Between June of 1987 and June of 1990 land owner permissions to install the trench J and pilot systems were obtained In addition permissionfirom the Connecticut DEP
Solid Waste Management Division was sought and obtained to disturb the landfill siuface and install the system (see Appendix C for related documentation) The need for an air discharge permit related to pilot system operations was also investigated and was determined to be unnecessary by DEPs Air Compliance Unit (see Appendix C)
In JulyAugust 1990 the extraction trench was installed behind 493 Old Turnpike Road Southington a facility now used by the Town Parks and Recreation

Department The trench location is shown on Figure 1 The system design was substantially the same as that first proposed to the Town in June 1987 by Environmental AppUcations Inc (now QuLK Remediation Inc)
The design consisted of an arc-shaped trench approximately 300 feet in length The trench was excavated with the approval of the Coimecticut Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Unit to the top of the refuse layer As shown in Photographs 1 and 2 in Appendix D refuse and debris are evident in the excavated materials
Approximately six inches of gravel was placed in the base of the trench as shown in Photograph 2 Perforated piping and vent risers were then installed as shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Twelve to twenty-four inches of gravel was placed on top of the piping and the surface of the gravel was sealed with 6 mil polyethylene sheeting The sheeting was extended up the sides of the trench and approximately ten feet to either side of the trench to limit short circuiting of air from the ground surface Finally excavated cover soils materials were used to backfill the trench to grade and cover the sheeting on either side
Pilot System Venting Test
The pilot system consisted of the extraction trench approximately 300 feet in length extending across the rear of 493 Old Turnpike Road to the edge of 477 Old Turnpike Road and an extraction system (vacuum blower activated carbon controls etc) located in a small enclosure nearby to draw a vacuum on the center of the trench The trench mcluded ten vertical access ports and three nearby sets of piezometers to measure methane concentrations (as LEL) and vacuum at different depths and at different distances (0 5 10 and 15 feet) fi-om the trench A schematic
system layout is shown on Figure 2 attached
Controls built into the pilot system included gauges to continuously measure combustible gases as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL)^ before and after the system blower and a controller to monitor LEL levels and automatically shut
the system down in the event that LEL levels exceeded a specified limit The unit was calibrated to shut-down extraction at 30 LEL as a conservative safety precaution
1 Measurements of combustible gas are reported as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of pentane which is the gas to which the device is calibrated Dividing these readings by a conversion factor of 17 veilos provides approximate concentrations for methane The explosive concentration range of methane in air is between 5 and 15 percent 5 percent represents the LEL and 15 percent represents the upper explosive limit (UEL)
GZV
Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a

oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Department The trench location is shown on Figure 1 The system design was substantially the same as that first proposed to the Town in June 1987 by Environmental AppUcations Inc (now QuLK Remediation Inc)
The design consisted of an arc-shaped trench approximately 300 feet in length The trench was excavated with the approval of the Coimecticut Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Unit to the top of the refuse layer As shown in Photographs 1 and 2 in Appendix D refuse and debris are evident in the excavated materials
Approximately six inches of gravel was placed in the base of the trench as shown in Photograph 2 Perforated piping and vent risers were then installed as shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Twelve to twenty-four inches of gravel was placed on top of the piping and the surface of the gravel was sealed with 6 mil polyethylene sheeting The sheeting was extended up the sides of the trench and approximately ten feet to either side of the trench to limit short circuiting of air from the ground surface Finally excavated cover soils materials were used to backfill the trench to grade and cover the sheeting on either side
Pilot System Venting Test
The pilot system consisted of the extraction trench approximately 300 feet in length extending across the rear of 493 Old Turnpike Road to the edge of 477 Old Turnpike Road and an extraction system (vacuum blower activated carbon controls etc) located in a small enclosure nearby to draw a vacuum on the center of the trench The trench mcluded ten vertical access ports and three nearby sets of piezometers to measure methane concentrations (as LEL) and vacuum at different depths and at different distances (0 5 10 and 15 feet) fi-om the trench A schematic
system layout is shown on Figure 2 attached
Controls built into the pilot system included gauges to continuously measure combustible gases as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL)^ before and after the system blower and a controller to monitor LEL levels and automatically shut
the system down in the event that LEL levels exceeded a specified limit The unit was calibrated to shut-down extraction at 30 LEL as a conservative safety precaution
1 Measurements of combustible gas are reported as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of pentane which is the gas to which the device is calibrated Dividing these readings by a conversion factor of 17 veilos provides approximate concentrations for methane The explosive concentration range of methane in air is between 5 and 15 percent 5 percent represents the LEL and 15 percent represents the upper explosive limit (UEL)
GZV
Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Prior to start-up of the system measurements were made at the ten access ports for volatile organic compoimds using an 117 eV lamp HNx model photoionization detector (PID) and explosive gases and oxygen using a MSA Model 260 Combustible Gas Meter as percentages in the atmosphere tested Table 4 provides the results of those measurements
During the time between trench installation and system start-up methane accumulated in the trench to the point where the levels of methane extracted exceeded 100 of the lower explosive limit LEL when the system was started up on August 10 1990 Since the system could not operate safely when extracting soil gas from the trench only a bypass valve was opened to mix ambient air into the soil gas for dilution From August 10 to September 4 the extraction trench was flushed until equihbriiun conditions were reached at which time the vacuum blower was extracting air from the trench directiy without ambient air bypass At that time the LEL meters on the system read 3-5 of LEL consistently
The system was monitored frequently during initial start-up and throughout the period of the pilot-test program Field summaries containing system operating parameters during the pilot test are presented in Appendix D
On August 201991 soil vapor samples were obtainedfi-om a system mfluent port and an effluent port located after the carbon treatment system just prior to discharge to ambient air Samples were obtained m two tedlar bags from the ports using a small sampling pump The samples were delivered to Ceimic Corporation of Narragansett Rhode Island for analysis of EPA Method 6248240 compounds An ambient air sample blank prepared by the laboratory accompanied the samples The laboratory report is provided in Appendix E The ambient air sample bljink contained 02 mgm^ of methylene chloride The Air Influent sample reportedly contained 07 mgm^ of acetone the air effluent sample reportedly contained 11 mgm^ of trans-13shydichloropropene and 05 mgm^ of 2-hexanone No other compounds were reportedly detected Detected values are well below (gt 90 less than) short-term (STEL) and long-term (TWA) threshold limit values (TLVs) established as exposure guidelines by ACGIH Glues used in construction of the extraction system may have contributed to detected levels At the reported levels VOC emissions were approximately 00005 poimds per hour well below the allowable discharge limit of 04 lbhour for detected compounds by Connecticut DEP Air Regulations During system operations VOC emissions were monitored periodically with a photoionization detector no PID meter response was noted
At equilibrium the extraction system operated at approximately 75 cubic feet per minute (cfm) with a suction of -28 to -32 inches of water ( H2O) On September 21 a complete set of piezometer readings was taken using a sensitive inclined manometer to measure vacuum with plusmn0005 HjO accuracy The readings indicated that the vacuum in the manifold was maintained at -013 HjO At piezometer points A B

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

|gtmdashlaquo^j^Bmiwnpi
Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

and C located at five ten and fifteen feet from the trench respectively there was decreasing vacuum with increasing distance from the extraction piping as expected However the values were relatively low typically -002 to -02 HjO These data are presented in Table 5 This level of vacuum provided a hmited driving force for vapor flow so a larger vacuum blower was installed
A second set of piezometer readings was taken on December 51990 using the larger vacuimi blower This unit generated almost double the suction (-5 HjO) and more than three times the previousflow rate (260 cfm) Therefore the vacuum in the trench and piezometers increased about fivefold to approximately -01 to -10 H2O These data are presented in Table 6
CONCLUSIONS
The data developed during the pilot testing (extraction at 2 to 5 HjO) indicates that relatively low vacuum extraction systems should be sufficient for venting the on-site soils above the landfill This is fortuitous in that systems capable of higher vacuums typically have significantly increased capital and operating costs The pilot test also demonstrated that low vacuum systems are sufficient to establish a zone of influence (vacuum greater than -01 HjO) extending at least to 15 feet from the extraction point This zone of influence was achieved during pilot testing with only a partial cap extending 12 feet out from the extraction trench As such it appears that extractioninlet point spacing can be increased beyond 15 feet in areas with a low permeability cover such as existing building floors Therefore developing extractioninlet point spacings which are practical given the geometry of the existing structures appears feasible
lt gt The pilot test results indicate that the surface soils above the landfill are relatively porous This would suggest that methane gas generated by the landfill debris should migrate relatively freely through the fill to the surface As such much of the methane generated in the past has already been removed via natural passive venting
REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN
Methane when present in sufficient quantities can typically enter a building through cracks in floor slabs and building foundations Typical pathways for methane migration are shown on Figure 3
There are basically three means of preventing methane gas from seeping into buildings through foundations
1
GZ
1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

1 Sealing ie provide an unpermeable barrier
2 FaciUtating venting ie passive methane gas flow from under the foimdation using piping and naturally occurring pressure gradients and
3 Active venting ie usmg mechanical means such as a vacuum blower to increase sub-slab ventilation carrying methane gas away from the foundation diluted in an airstream
Gas generation rates in available published literature for municipal landfills vary widely between 006 and 150 cubic feet per day per square foot of landfill area GZA understands that this area of the landfill has been inactive for almost twenty-five years This suggests that the generation rate is probably at the lower end of the range Typical landfill gas data also indicates that landfill gas is approximately half methane and half carbon dioxide with minor constituents of other gases
The first step in selecting an appropriate remedial action alternative is to determine which structures if any are affected by methane in interior atmospheres at unacceptable levels The structures then need to be examined to determine slab conditions and other constraints such as interior layout which may make certain alternatives unpractical In addition the type of structure residential or commercial and its use may also affect the choice of an appropriate remedial alternative Most importantiy remedial action should not be initiated before a clear definition of the problem exists
In solving problems caused by methane gas seepage generally one would try sealing first and resort to passive and subsequently active venting only if required to do so All three systems may include the sealing of the foundation slab as an integral part of their design although active systems are often installed without sealing These solutions also become progressively more costly and regulatorily burdensome and thus it is desirable to adopt the simplest solution that will solve the problem The three alternatives are discussed below in more detail
I ALTERNATIVES
A Sealing
A first step in stopping the seepage of methane gas into the enclosed space(s) of structures is to provide as tight a gas barrier as possible in the lowest level of the structure in contact with the soils methane is rising up from The typical procedure is to identify all cracks joints etc and patch them to render the floor or slab relatively impermeable Cracks in concrete slabs are typically saw cut and filled with non-shrinking grout other joints can be grouted or caulked as appropriate
8
ozv
For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4
B Passive Venting
If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

For example a flexible caulk or seal must be used for structural expansion joints which must be free to move If the floor or slab is permeable or severely cracked then applying a new surface coat of cement or polymeric sealant may be called for
Open joints or cracks where slabs abut walls should be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealer resistant to gas flow Preparation of surfaces to which the sealer is intended to adhere is critical as a minimum measure surfaces should be free from dirt oil and grease Cracks should first be sawcut to provide uniform clean surfaces
Methane gas which finds its way under the foundation will thus build up until the excess moves away from the foundation along sidewaUs or through surface soils If the methane gas seepage rate is low seaUng is probably adequate since the redirected methane flow will be very dispersed and not hkely to be mtroduced into the building A typical mstallation is shown m Figure 4

If slab sezding cannot be performed reliably or economically the next step is to provide a path to redirect accumulated methane away from the structure Passive venting accomplishes this by utilizing the natural concentration and pressure gradients resultingfi-om the relative densities of methane and air
A passive venting system could be unplemented by saw cutting the slab and installing perforated piping in a crushed stone bedding below it or by driving well points through the frost walls Thus a pathway for methane collecting under the slab is created This piping is then connected to a vent stack nearby that exhausts the methane above the roof line of the structure Since methane is less dense than air of the same temperature it tends to rise away from the structure However groimd temperature is usually lower than ambient air temperature in the simimer decreasing dispersion of methane
Passive venting can often be employed to solve the problem of methane re-entering the building by rising along the foundation walls and being drawn in through vents or window However if methane concentrations are high enough it will be difficult to redirect all the methane flow passively and prevent undesirable concentrations of methane appearing in unwanted areas As with slab seaUng concentrations of methane will still build up under the slab A typical mstallation is shown in Figure 5
oz
Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a
10
oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Active Venting
Active venting is generally employed where methane gas accumulates in tmdesirable concentrations due to high rates of methane gas flow up through the soil Site specific factors such as obstructions located beneath the foundation may prevent passive venting from providing sufficient methane withdrawal Likewise a badly cracked slab or one which continues to settle and crack (common in slabs placed on landfills) is not likely to remain sealed and sealing alone will not reliably prevent methane intrusion into the building
The advantages of a well designed active venting system are that it prevents the accumulation of high concentrations of methane by ventilating the soils under the building and that it provides for better dispersion and dilution of the vented gasair mixture
Additional engineering efforts might include estimating the generation and flow rates of methane although the induced air flow is usually sufficient to overcome the slower methane generation rate
For residences which typically have a smaller footprint ie fotmdations are of lesser area typical designs involve installing air inlet points on one side of the foundation and air outiets on the other side By pulling a vacuum on the air outlets air is drawn in the inlet points sweeps through the soils beneath the foundation and is collected at the outiets and exhausted through the vacuum blower to a suitable stack typically above the structures roof line
In New England slab-on-grade buildings are constructed with frost walls andor grade beams below the slab A typical installation would require shallow excavation (two to four feet below grade) along the frost wall to lay an air mlet manifold pipe At intervals along the manifold holes are drilled through the frost wall and perforated pipes or well points are driven into the soils beneath the foundation slab The openings on the suction (vacuum) side of the frost wall are then sealed tightly to prevent short circuiting of the airflow Depending on the frost wall construction the entire surface might be sealed with a suitable polymeric or tar coating
This process is repeated on the other side of the foundation for the air outlet manifold This manifold is connected to a vacuum blower of sufficient capacity to induce the necessary air flow As with any venting system it is usually desurable to have some means of monitoring air in the soils below the foundation using piezometers to provide both a

oz
means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

means of sampling of the air to check methane content and a means of measuring the induced vacuum and thus the amount of air flow imder the foundation in that location The soils beneath fotmdations are not usually homogeneous and various obstructions to air flow are usually present so it is important to eliminate dead spots under the foundation A typical installation is shown in Figure 6
The situation for commercial buildings differs primarily because of the larger area of the foimdation Slabs wider than twenty to forty feet depending on soil porosity are usually too wide to vent from the edges alone This is dependent on the sub-slab construction such as depth and type of crushed stone base for example Another significant factor is the presence of sub-slab structures such as grade beams which can channel or block air flow For these reasons it is very important to understand the sub-slab configuration Costs for blowers capable of producing greater vacuums rise quickly and a more practical solution is to add additional inlet andor extraction points under the foimdation
A typical installation for a commercial building might involve saw cutting a trench down the center of the foundation slab and installing perforated air inlet piping in a suitable bed of crushed stone just beneath the slab The slab is then repaired and sealed and extraction manifolds are installed along opposite sides or even the perimeter of the building Fresh air is thereby drawn in underneath the center of the slab and withdrawn along with methane gas at the periphery For even wider slabs additional extraction and air inlet manifolds might need to be installed under the slab Typical installations are shown in Figure 7
n RECOMMENDATIONS
GZA recommends a program of periodic monitoring for structures thought to be potentially impacted by seepage of methane gas from the Old Southington Landfill to determine what if any problems exist in which structures and to what extent Such a program should be conducted throughout at least one calendar year so that seasonal effects such as frosts can be accounted for
At the conclusion of such a study G21A could then recommend the appropriate remedial alternatives for impacted structures based on information collected specific to each structure Until the conclusions of such a monitoring program are detennined GZA cannot recommend an appropriate remedial alternative if any

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call
Your very truly

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

|gtmdashlaquo^j^Bmiwnpi
Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call
Your very truly

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary

It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

PILOT METHANE EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
The following document contains an outline specifically developed for the installation of a Pilot Methane Extraction System to be installed at the Southington Landfill Southington Connecticut
100 PURPOSE
The purpose of the pilot system is to evaluate the effectiveness of a forced soil venting system to control methane accumulation at the above referenced site It is understood that if the pilot program yields positive results a more extensive Methane Management System may be instituted
200 PILOT TEST OBJECTIVES
Environmental Applications Inc (EA) has identified the following objectives as a basis for the pilot system design
1 Determine the permeability of the soil to air so that a reasonable pressure gradient can be established to induce methane migration towards the collection trench
2 Determine the lateral extent of this pressure gradient to identify the area of influence of the trench as well as the potential impact of surface breakthrough
3 Determine the usage rates of vapor phase carbon canisters to control odors
300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

300 VACUUM EXTRACTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Pilot Test System is composed of three basic components a vacuum extraction pump a moisture barrier and a vapor phase carbon filter The vacuum extraction pump selected for use at the Southington Landfill is a vortex type blower In operation the vortex blower will generate a high suction medium volume air flow through the perforated pipe in the trench This air stream will then pass through a moisture barrier to minimize the amount of water vapor entering the carbon filters The vapor phase carbon filter system is used for odor control of off-gas
400 PILOT TEST PROCEDURES
Once the trench and vacuum extraction system is installed a series of tests will be conducted to evaluate system performance The tests include varying the vacuum pressure applied to the extraction lines while measuring the pressure gradient adjacent to the trench It is anticipated that this pilot test will require several days to complete The data will be reviewed and the system will be adjusted to achieve maximum performance
In the event that a reasonable area of influence cannot be achieved due to of surface breakthrough additional measures may be required to extend the area of influence One such measure would be the placement of a polyethylene sheet over the ground surface as a temporary impermeable boundary limiting surface breakthrough immediately adjacent to the trench It is recommended that a supplier ofpolyethylene be located as soonshould this option be necessary
construction as possible
grade to avoid delays
(6 mil)
410 Monitoring
It is EAs understanding that the Southington Landfill has been closed since 1967 Prior to 1967 both municipal and industrial wastes were buried at the facility Because of the relatively high methane concentrations observed and the possibility of encountering toxic waste during construction EA recommends that the area around the trench be monitored with a photoionizing vapor analyzer (HNu Model PI-101) during the construction phase The HNu will readily detect a variety of volatile organic compounds but will not respond to methane
The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call
Your very truly

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

The vacuum extraction system is designed to induce methane flow towards the trench therefore an increase in methane concentration in the immediate vicinity of the trench is likely to occur Methane concentrations in this area should be monitored during the pilot testing The vacuum sampling lines can also be used as methane monitoring wells with minor adjustments
420 Design Parameters
Based on the information made available to EA the following parameters have been incorporated in the pilot system design
Trench Dimensions
Overall length - 300 +
Depth (may vary) - 8 assumed
Width 20 - 25
Depth to 16 + Groundwater
Depth to top 8 - 1 1 + of Refuse
Refer to Figure 1 for trench and equipment location plan
500 TRENCH CONSTRUCTION
Depending upon the site conditions two options exist for trench construction If the soil is stable enough to allow the entire trench to be excavated prior to installation of the subsurface venting system this method will be employed as the preferred method of construction However if the excavation becomes unstable or the slope of the side walls becomes excessive a progressive installation of the subsurface venting system will be conducted The perforated pipe specified is corrugated allowing installation from the ground surface Figure 2 depicts a cross section of the completed trench
The construction sequence will be as follows
1 Excavate the trench 20 to 25 Ft wide to the top of the refuse or until groundwater is encountered
2 Assemble the vertical riser sections on to the tee couplings at the proper locations A detail of this is presented as Figure 2
3 Place 4 to 6 inches of gravel uniformly on the bottom of the trench
4 Lower the corrugated vent line onto the gravel and center it in the trench
5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

5 Use the bucket of the backhoe to place 18 to 20 inches of gravel backfill on the vent line In order to avoid crushing the vent line the gravel must not be dropped onto the pipe from the top of the trench
6 Place a minimum of 1 layer of 6 mil poly over the gravel prior to backfilling the remainder of the trench Compact the backfill to the same degree as its initial state prior to excavation
NOTE Extra care should be used when backfilling and compacting around the vertical PVC riser pipe
7 Installation of the vacuum sensors (methane wells) will be at the approximate locations shown on the drawings The vacuum sensors will be driven up to a maximum depth of 7 using a driving rod attachment (provided by EA) A cross section of the completed vacuum sensor is shown as Figure 3

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

|gtmdashlaquo^j^Bmiwnpi
Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call
Your very truly

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

|gtmdashlaquo^j^Bmiwnpi
Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John Weichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 2 0 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases off-gaqpg --j-i 11 then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
bullthe test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently available to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

Mr Bill Howard Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Management Division 122 Washington Street Hartford Connecticut 06106
Re Apprqvaj tin Hi^mrt fraquon1 Id Waste Disposal Area Pilot Methane Extraction System Southington Connecticut
Dear MrHoward
As we discussed at the request of the Town of Southington Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates Inc of Bridgeport Connecticut and Environmental Applications of Waltham Massachusetts intend to install a pilot methane extraction system at the Old Turnpike Road Landfill (AKA Old Southington Landfill) in Southington Connecticut A map of the area is provided as Figure 1 Sheet 1 of 2 shows the area planned for the pilot system
Based on past soil gas testing methane is present within the closed landfill In building monitoring has not indicated levels of explosive gases within general building confines although methane has been detected within concrete floor cracks The purpose of the pilot extraction system is to provide data necessary to reevaluate methane migration and field conditions for extraction so that a more permanent installation can be developed as may be warranted by site conditions We understand that prior to any excavation to install the test section written approval must be obtained from the Department in accordance with section 22A-209shy7(u) of the Solid Waste Management Regulations
Field activities will be accomplished by Environmental Applications a copy of their intended methane extraction system is attached The landfill encompasses about ten acres of land Based on our current information a two to eight foot thick layer of cover material (fine to medium sand) overlies decomposing refuse mixed with sand Up to 20 feet of refuse was noted in one on-site boring The groundwater table varies from four to fifteen feet below ground surface in the landfill area and is believed to be about twelve to fourteen feet below land surface in the area to be excavated The area of excavation will be plusmn300 feet long by plusmn25 feet wide by an anticipated depth of about 5 to 8 feet The

Mr Bill Howard - Julv 21 1989 - File No 6-50359 - Page Two
excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call
Very truly yours

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

excavation will not extend into groundwater nor will significant refuse excavation be performed We anticipate that the maximum amount of material excavated will be 225 cubic yards of that less than 100 cubic yards of refuse is expected Excavated material will be placed adjacent to the trench and covered daily with plastic in order to reduce odors dust and blowing trash Existing cover soil and refuse will be stock piled separately if possible After system installation all refuse will be placed back into the excavation and the soil cover re-established Existing topography in the area of the system is expected to remain generally similar although a slight mound (plusmn1 foot high) along the length of the trench due to the addition of trench materials may result No exposed refuse will be left on-site and no off-site disposal of refuse is intended
Excavation activities will be monitored with an MSA combustible gas indicator and with a photoionization detector (PID) If gas readings of 25 of the methane lower explosive limit (LEL) or PID readings exceeding 25 ppm are encountered within breathing (and motorized equipment) zones excavation will stop until conditions stabilize If significant odors are notable in the vicinity of the excavation or if unstable trench conditions are encountered excavation procedures will be modified so that the excavation is performed in shorter increments and backfill occurs daily We anticipate that excavation pipe placement and backfill will be completed within five working days
If you require additional information in order to approve this activity please do not hesitate to call

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call
Your very truly

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Attention Mr William Howard
Re Methane Pilot Test Old Turnpike Road Landfill Southington Connecticut
Dear Bill
As you requested by telephone on January 30 1990 I have attached a copy of a letter sent to Mr Joe Ulevicus of DEP Air Compliance on July 14 1989 As you will note the letter was based on a June 26 1989 meeting with Joe to discuss the need for air permits for pilot testing of methane extraction It was our understanding from the meeting that an air permit was not necessary
Since we did not receive comment to the contrary from Joe regarding the letter we believe our understanding was correct
If you need additional information please feel free to call
Your very truly

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Attention Mr Joseph Ulevicus
Dear Mr Ulevicus
Thank you for meeting with me John VJeichsel and Joe Foglio on June 26 1989 regarding the Old Turnpike Road Landfill in Southington Connecticut
As we explained during our meeting a pilot test for methane extraction will be conducted at the portion of the Old Turnpike Road site to assess the need for and scope of a more permanent installation The pilot system will extract soil vapor over a period of about 20 weeks The soil vapor will be passed through a moisture barrier to minimize water vapor and then through a carbon filter system to control odor in off-gases Off-gases will then discharge to the atmosphere
Based on our conversation with you we understand that a discharge permit is not necessarily provided
the test system discharges less than 5 tons per year of any particular air pollutant
no flaring or burning occurs
an odor control system is in-place and effective and
potential emissions are below 01 pounds per hour (Ibhr) of section 22a-174-29 Table 29-1 parameters 02 Ibhr of Table 29-2 parameters and 04 Ibhr of Table 29-3 parameters
Based on data currently availr ble to us we do not anticipate that any of the above conditions will occur On that basis we will proceed with the test pilot system However after system startshyup air sampling (pre-and post-carbon) will be conducted to verify atmospheric loading rates

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Dear Mr Weichsel
In accordance with Section 22a-209-7(u) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies the Town of Southingtons request to disrupt the closed solid waste disposal area located on property at 477 and 493 Old Turnpike Road is hereby approved with the following conditions
(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

(1) The proposed pilot methane gas extraction system shall be installed in conformance with plans and specifications prepared by Environmental Applications Incorporated of Waltham Massachusetts and dated June 1987
(2) The pilot methane gas extraction system shall be maintained in such a condition so as to minimize odor emissions therefrom at a l l times during its use and until such time as the system is either permanently discontinued or upgraded to a more pemicinent landfill gais management system
(3) If results from the testing performed in conjunction with the installation of the pilot methane gas extraction system indicate that a permanent landfill gas management system is unnecessary the Tovn of Southington shall cause the use of the pilot system ani each of its components including the electric services supplying the vacuum extraction pump and its controls to be permanently discontinued Each system component shall be either removed from the site (ievacuum extraction pump and its controls and vapor phase carbon filter canisters) or abandoned in place (ie gas collection trench) A system component that is abandoned in place shall be rendered completely inoperable and inaccessibla
(4) The area used as a base for the vacuum extraction pump and landfill gas treatment equipment shall be secured against unauthorized access at all times when the pilot methane gas extraction system is left unattended

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Work Accomplished and Observations Made
a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

a Completed final preparations prior to system startup Dave Swetland of GZA assisted in setting up peizometers for measurement The two LEL units were calibrated to methane Le 50 LEL = 25 methane The GZA portable LEL (previously calibrated to propane) read approximately 85 LEL = 25 methane
b Kathie Cyr and Dave Swetland of GZA and the undersigned measiured the gas concentration in three vents (see attached figure) prior to startup LEL concentrations ranged from near 0 LEL up to 100 LEL and over Trace levels of organic vapor^ were also observed by GZA
c System startup was at 1130 hrs Automatic system shut- off occurred within 5 minutes due to methane levels above 30 Methane levels from the trench were measured using the portable LEL unit to be 87 LEL or approximately 25 methane It was necessaiy to completely open the fresh air dilution valve to the system for system operation

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

Mr David Swetland Goldberg-Zoino amp Associates 140 Broadway Providence RI 02903
Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory

Dear Mr Swetland
Enclosed are the analytical results for the analysis of two sets of air samples which were received at CEIMIC on August 20 1990
Please note that due to the lacl^of sample concentration procedures method reporting limiCsare tabulated at the mgm3 lSVeplusmni ~to reflect instrumental detection limits of 5 to 10 nanogram for the target analytes For several of the nontarget analytes including carbon dioxide -metJiane and sulfor dioxide the method reporting limits are estimated values as indicated in the data reports While we did not pick up~ ny odor for the Influent Scunple we did observe a slight aroma for the Effluent sample
Please call if you have any questions
Sincerely
Kin S Chiu Manager Organic Laboratory
