N.H. Admin. Code § Env-Sw 805.11

Current through Register No. 45, November 7, 2024
Section Env-Sw 805.11 - Other Landfill Design Requirements
(a) The sequencing of facility development shall be planned based on subdividing the footprint into areas separated by berms.
(b) The subdivisions of a footprint shall be referred to as phases, stages and cells, each term being used as defined in Env-Sw 102-104.
(c) A facility shall be comprised of one or more phases, within which may exist one or more stages, within which may exist one or more cells, depending on the size of the facility and the design of the leachate management system.
(d) The layout and the configuration of, and the sequence for developing the phases, stages and cells shall, by design:
(1) Limit leachate generation by controlling the amount of area open to active operation and otherwise placing waste in a controlled manner consistent with the requirements in Env-Sw 806.02;
(2) Limit the length of time unused cells remain inactive; and
(3) Avoid the need to decommission groundwater monitoring wells as facility development proceeds and new stages or phases are constructed.
(e) Fill sequencing plans shall be prepared as part of the facility operating plan to show clearly the sequencing of facility development.
(f) Fill sequencing plans shall:
(1) Show elevations and placements of lifts, as well as general access points;
(2) Be compatible with the facility's leachate management system design capabilities and limitations;
(3) Be compatible with the facility's stormwater management system design capabilities and limitations;
(4) Be compatible with the facility closure design; and
(5) Provide information and detail sufficient to allow a facility operator to operate the landfill in accordance with the approved design.
(g) Main access roads within the property boundary of a landfill leading to and from the working face of the landfill shall be designed and maintained to support the required loading, as well as limit to the extent practicable traffic congestion, road safety hazards and dust production.
(h) Main access roads onto or into property shall be fenced if necessary to catch blowing paper.
(i) Landscaping features shall be incorporated in conformance with Env-Sw 1103.04.
(j) Final grades at the facility shall be designed to blend with surrounding features to the greatest extent practicable.
(k) Perimeter and interior berms shall be analyzed for stability.
(l) The vegetated buffer zone required by Env-Sw 804.04(c) shall be:
(1) Established and maintained to minimize impacts to abutting properties; and
(2) Designed to minimize the impact of ingress and egress access roads on abutting properties.
