Community Waste Solutions – Landfill Hydrology Design

This project required design of interception systems to divert clean surface and subsurface water from contact with garbage. To minimize costs the design was installed by landfill personnel and supervised by Elijah.  Test pits were advanced throughout the facility to determine substrate composition. A series of 25-foot deep ditches were filled with tires covered with concrete and rock to facilitate passage of clean water.   The design has been quite successful over the past 2 years and was instrumental to reaching compliance for the facility.
