The project includes both closure of the Salem Landfill and redevelopment of the Salem Transfer Station, including a capacity increase of the transfer station from 100 tons/day to 400 tons/day. The attached locus plan shows the location of the project site at 12 Swampscott Road, Salem, MA. The proposed project consists the following: Demolition of Existing Building The former incinerator building including the smokestack will be demolished. The construction and demolition debris will be used as backfill for the incinerator building foundation hole and also to re-grade the area surrounding the existing foundation (See DEP Conditional Approval Letter included as Attachment D). Capping of Closed LandSll The waste at the site consists of ash,C&D Debris,and municipal solid waste. The proposed landfill cap will likely consist of re- grading the existing soil cap to proposed grades, followed by installation of a flexible membrane liner (FML) of 11DPE, or equivalent. The FML will be covered by a 12-inch sand drainage layer of topsoil and turf. A geotextile membrane with integral drainage layer may be installed in lieu of the sand drainage layer. After final placement of topsoil and grading to final elevations is completed,the surface of the entire landfill cap will be covered with jute erosion mats held in place with soil nails. An approved meadow and/or slope seed mix will be spread over the upper portions ol'the cap and a wetland seed mix will be used on the lower, river bank portions of the cap. The contours of the proposed capped landfill will be designed such that slopes to the Forest River will not exceed three feet horizontal by one foot vertical(3:1). Construction of New Transfer Station Building Construction The proposed new transfer station will include an enclosed metal building on a pile-supported poured-concrete foundation with proposed dimensions of approximately 75 feet by 100 feet. The new building footprint will not exceed by more than 10%the footprint of the current incinerator building, including the stack. 7'he building will be approximately two stories high(35 feet at the eaves). The building will contain two upper level truck bays designed for off-loading(dumping)waste into open top trailers parked immediately below in the lower level. A 1,500-square foot office and break room will also be included in the building. The construction of this proposed building will be permitted through a minor modification to the existing site assignment for this facility. .Z- Repaving The driveways associated with the new transfer station will be similar in layout to the existing paved driveways. All existing pavement will be removed and replaced as part of the transfer station upgrade. Additional paved driveways will be added to allow for the smooth flow of truck traffic within the site. A portion of the paved area at the transfer station will be used for parking—one area for employee parking and three parking spots for trucks used in the transfer station operations. Operations NSC proposes to operate the transfer station at a capacity of 400 tons per day. The waste will consist of construction and demolition debris,municipal solid waste,and commercial solid waste. Relocation of Leaf and Yard Waste Composting/Recycling Area Paving Limited project in accordance with 310 CMR 10.53(3)(e). The current leaf and yard waste composting area is an unpaved handling area that is used only by NSC trucks. In order to make this area useable by resident's automobiles,the travel lanes will be paved to the extent shown"Site Plan—West Side of Forest River" included The paving will include an access road that will connect the leaf and yard waste composting/recycling area to the Transfer Station site, as well as to existing site access and egress points(curb cuts) to Swampscott Road. This access road meets one of the definitions of a limited project, i.e.,"the construction and maintenance of a new roadway or driveway ...where reasonable alternative means of access from a public way to an upland area"of the site is unavailable. Concrete Block Push Walls A 22,000+/- square foot area will be graded and leveled for the Yard Waste Drop-Off/Recycling Area. A posh wall will be constructed of monolithic concrete blocks to facilitate loading of the leaf mulch and yard wastes for off-site transport. Note that the proposed Leaf and Yard Waste Composting/Recycling Area has been situated to minimize the amount of activity within the 100-foot buffer zone. Operation NSC proposes to continue the operation of the leaf and yard waste composting area on a 6-day per week, year round basis. Sunday hours will be added during three week periods in the spring and fall. Leaf and yard wastes will be loaded and shipped from the Site, as required. During periods of heavy usage,the leaf and yard wastes may be shipped as frequently as daily. However,[luring most times of the year,shipments will be on the order of one to four times a month. Site Improvements Partial Removal of Forest River Culvert The proposed plan includes the removal of approximately sixty (60) linear feet of the upstream portion of the concrete culvert that conveys the Forest River under the existing access road to the composting area located on the west side of the Site. The material excavated to allow removal of that portion of the culvert will be placed on-site within the limits of the waste and incorporated into the capped portion of the landfill. Before any disturbance of soil and/or waste occurs, a continuous row of staked hay bales and silt fence will be installed along the water's edge. During any excavation along river bank, temporary silt curtains will be installed where the depth of the river makes their use possible, After the culvert removal is completed,the remaining material forming the banks of the Forest River will be landfill solid waste and/or ash and will thus be cupped as part of the landfill closure. The pre-capping grade of the waste/ash will be altered such that(1) no slope is steeper than three horizontal to one vertical and(2)sufficient room is created to allow the placement of the landfill cap (proposed to consist of a leveling layer of soil or sand, followed by a flexible membrane liner constructed of IIDPE, or equivalent, covered by a sand drainage layer and a 12-inch layer of topsoil and turf). As final grading and placement of topsoil to final elevations is completed, landfill slopes leading down to the Forest River will be covered with jute erosion mats held in place with soil nails. An approved wetland seed mix will be spread over the newly- created landfill cap. Rernoval of Debris from the Forest River Visible debris from the Forest River will be removed through the use of an extended boom on an excavator. The excavator will be located at the top of the embankment, so as to minimize damage during debris removal. The removed material will either be incorporated into the capped portion of the landfill or transported off site for recycling or disposal. Note:The remaining culvert will be cleaned, inspected and replaced,as deemed necessary by a registered Professional Engineer.

As discussed, this project is the result of years of negotiations with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, including various forms of agreements between MA DEP, the City of Salem and Northside Carting, Inc. Currently, there is an amended Administration Consent Order between the three parties that sets forth a schedule for implementation of the landfill closure and expansion of the existing transfer station- Both the City of Salem and Northside Carting are considered proponents of this project- Site Background The City of Salem originally constructed a municipal incinerator at the subject site in the early ' 1960's. It operated kir approximately five years before it was taken out of service. During that time, a significant quantity of ash was generated and disposed in a landfill at the site- ' The site was generally abandoned from 1968 until 1975 when a portion of the incinerator building was converted to a transfer station, with permission to operate at up to 50 tons per day. ' The station was operated for several years by the City and then abandoned in the late 1980s or early 1990'x- In 1994, the DEN issued a permit to operate the transfer station at up to 100 tons per day and Northside Carting was selected as operator of the transfer station under a lease arrangement with the City. Northside Carting has been the transfer station operator since that tune. ' In early 2007, the City issued a Request for Proposals to develop the site, giving the respondents significant latitude •.kith respect to the future use of the site, provided that the respondent assume the responsibility for closure of the landfill and all associated groundwater monitoring and ' maintenance of the landfill cap- Two proposals were submitted: both were from respondents who wetted to expand the existing transfer station operations in exchange for closure of the landfill and redevelopment of the site. In the full of 2007, tire City selected Northside Carting for redevelopment of the snc, mcluduig expansion of the transfer station fan 100 to 400 loll~ per !fncoln,R! I'lormod,MA Rec),v Hill.Cr Mr. Richard Bourre lime 2, 2008 Page 2 of 2 day. As part of the purchase and sales arrangement, Northside Carting has agreed to pay the City a host community fee and real estate taxes related to ongoing operation of the transfer station. In ' addition, Northside will assume responsibility for closure of the landfill, including long term monitoring requirements under the DEP's solid waste management regulations. ' Environmental Permitting Preliminary engineering related to design of the expanded transfer station and closure of the 1 landfill has been performed and the Notice of Intent was filed with the Salem Conservation Commission earlier this year. An Order of Conditions was issued by the Salem ConCormn it) March 2008. A minor permit modification request is expected to be submitted to the Salem Board of Health later this month. That request will include the various supplemental studies conducted to date that have addressed several concerns that have been raised during meetings with the Board of Health, local residents, the Conservation Commission and others. Specifically, ' they include the following: ➢ Traffic Impact Study; ' ➢ Drafl Air Quality Impact Study, ➢ Noise Study; and ➢ Method 3 Human Health Risk Characterization. ' Copies of the first three studies are included herewith; the human health risk characterization will be submitted under separate cove later today. ' MEPA Thresholds tThe only identified threshold exceeded by the project is the increase in the permitted tonnage rate from 100 to 400 tons per day. Since the original site assignment preceded the current permitting process, the project proponents elected to file this ENT for your review. ' We trust this submission meets you requirements; please call me if you have any questions or ' need any further information to address public comments.

The Department contras that the C&D materials-both from demolition of the existing building and from relocation of materials from the culvert area- may be used to backfill the building foundation hole and m-grade the area around the existing foundation. ' The application proposes to effect the use of the C&D debris as backfill pursuant to a Beneficial Use Determination(a BUD,310 CMR 19.060). The Department has determined that a BUD is not the appropriate mechanism for the effecting the use of the C&D as proposed by this project In consideration of the origin and ' character of the C&D debris,the debris must be placed as part of the waste materials in the landfill,and the landfill cap extended to include the transfer station foundation. The Department will entertain disposal of the C&D materials in this manner as an integral component of the site remediation and landfill closure design. ' Based on the site use history and the soil conditions identified by the Comprehensive Site Assessment (CSA),the Department has determined that the construction of the salt shed does not require Department approval. ' The Department approves the CAAA and concurs with the selection of Option 4 for the design of closure of the landfill subject to the following conditions: 1. The closom design shall: ' a. Extend the limits of the cap to cover the C&D waste materials. In accomplishing this extension of the cap,either the FML may be extended under the new building with the ' FML and related layers designed to accommodate the loads,or the building foundation shall be integrated into the impervious layer of the cap. b. Design the new building foundation to protect the building and its occupants from ' explosive gases. 2. The Corrective Action Design(CAD,i.e.the closure plans)application shall be signed by the appropriate official of the City of Salem Reports,plans,etc.,shall be signed and sealed by the ' engineer of record. Each shall include certification pursuant to 310 CMR 19.011,as required. 3. The Department reserves the right to amend,modify,suspend or revoke this approval as necessary to ' protect the public health, safety or the environment, or as otherwise necessary to insure compliance with applicable law and/or regulation. 4. The City shall obtain and comply with the requirements of all applicable state,federal and local laws, ' regulations, and permits. Concurrently with submitting the CAD application the City shall submit documentation that the applications for such other permits and approvals as may be required have been applied for. ' 5. In conside*_ation of the commercial operating nature of the transfer station by Northside Carting Inc. and the interdependence of the reconstruction of the transfer station on the corrective action design,the Department's review of the CAD shall not be subject to the exemption from application ' fees granted to municipalities. The application shall be subject to payment of the applicable fees for privately owned/operated facilities as established at 310 CMR 4.00. 6. The Department reserves the option to require Northside Carting,Inc.to obtain a permit,issued to ' Northside Carting,Inc.,for future operation of the facility,and/or otherwise pay an annual compliance fee as applicable to privately operated facilities. 1 s1ti0412apv.doc 04/12/05 1 ' Salem Page 3 Salem Landfill Conective Action Alternative Analysis ' Conditional Approval - - ' NOTICE OF RIGHT TO APPEAL The City of Salem(the"City")is hereby notified that it may within twenty-one(21)days file a request that this decision be deemed a provisional decision under 310 CMR 19.037(4)(b),by submitting a written statement of the basis ' 3 on which the City believes it is aggrieved,together with any supporting materials.

The City has not signed the Corrective Action Alternative Analysis (CAAA) application. In consideration of the need to proceed to design of this project and the degree of conformity of the selected option to a standard design,the Department has elected to waive the signatory requirement for this application. It will be necessary that the appropriate "responsible ' official' of the City of Salem sign the application for review of the Corrective Action Design. ' The CAAA reviews 5 options. The first 2 options ([Option 1] the need for"more stringent closure actions" than defined in 310 CMR 19.112 and [[Option 2] the ability to allow a "less stringent closure actions"than defined in 310 CMR 19.112) and the "DO 1 SILJO4Or5 t)pC CL/lL/C'S ' FACT SHEET File Number: W062414 Salem Landfi &Transfer Station Page 3 of 4 Corrective Actions Alternatives Analysis build" option [Option 51 are only summarily described and examined. The focus of the ° report is a "standard" option [Option 3] and a"modified" option[Option 4]. Options 2 and 5 are rejected as not meeting the goals of the regulatory standards for ^ landfill closures. Option 1 is rejected as the results of the Comprehensive Site Assessment(CSA) did not ' indicate a need. The City's engineers recommend the selection of Option 4 for the closure of the landfill. ' Under Option 3: ' * The existing landfill would be capped with a low permeability soil or FML cap. All waste would be retained within the existing waste limits. * The River Front of the Forest River would be remediated by: ' i. excavating the waste from the edge of the river, ii_ constructing a concrete bin type retaining wall along the edge of ' the river, iii. backfilling the retaining wall with the excavated waste. This option would not make any changes to the existing transfer station or other improvements to the site outside of the existing limits waste. ' Option 3 describes using an FIML to construct the cap along the slopes facing the river. As describedthe FNM would be placed at a gradient of 3:1, and excavated waste would be "stored"behind a retaining wall constructed next to the river. The Departcmeot ' assumes it is meant that the excavated waste will be used as permanent backfill behind the retaining wall. The described River Front remediation would result in waste materials being placed above the cap. This element of the design does not comply with minimal regturements for the capping of the waste material. However,the design is amenable to alterationto correct this deficiency. Under Option 4 the landfill would be capped with a low permeability soil or FML cap as' - included sincluded at Option 3. In addition: * The old incinerator building(of which part is used as the existing transfer ' station)would be razed. si�04�Ts.doc Oc/14/05 t FACT SHEET File Number:W062414 Salem Landfill &Transfer Station Page 4 of 4 Corrective Actions Alternatives Analysis * The River Front of the Forest River would be remediated by excavating ' waste from along the river and regarding the landfill slope, (currently varying from 1:1 to 2:1)to a gradient of 3:1- ' * Forest River will be further remediated by removal of the C&D waste materials from the area of the culvert and reconstructing the river crossing with clean fill. * The C&D debris from razing the incinerator, along with the waste excavated from the River Front would be used to backfill the area of the incinerator building- Anew uilding- Anew transfer station,with access driveways and aprons,would be ' constructed. * A new salt shed would be constructed on the portion of the property on the ' opposite side of the Forest River(the area currently used for the Town's leaf&yard waste composting area.). As proposed the new building would retain the same setback from the street side property line as the current building(circa 40 feet). ' Option 4 proposes to use the C&D debris and excavated waste as fill under the new transfer station pursuant to a Beneficial Use Determination (BUD). This type of approval willnot likely be appropriate. However,the design will likely be amenable to extension ' of the waste area and cap to beneath the new transfer station building. Option 4 includes construction of a new salt shed on the property. As identified in the ' plans available at this time,the area where the salt shed is proposed has not been used for solid waste (ash,MSV) disposal. The area is currently being used for leaf&yard waste composting an activity exempt pursuant to 310 CMR 16.05 4 As described in the P g- tY P P ( )�)- CSA and noted on the plan included with the CAAA,waste disposal at the site was ' limited principally to the portion of the site east of Forest River. Some construction& demolition waste(C&D debris) disposal also occurred within the immediate vicinity of the Forest River as part of establishing access across the Forest River to the portion of the ' west of the river- an approximately 160 foot reach of the river was placed into a culvert and the river channel at the culvert was filled with C&D debris materials. ' The Department, therefore, deems the portion of the site west of the Forest River(not including the area of C&D disposal)to be a separate and distinct area from the waste disposal area of the site. Therefore,the area where the salt shed is to be located is not subject to review and approval as a post closure use for the purpose of constructing a salt shed as proposed.

However. minor temporary alteration of the wetland ' resource area(450+/- square feet)will be required to accommodate installation of the landfill cap. For mitigation. at the Cormnission's option; we propose to eliminate flic 60-'/-foot upstream section of the existing culcen. thereby creating ' approximately 600 square leet of resource area to compensate for the temporary alteration of the rivers edge during construction of the cap. Protection of Rare Species 10.58(4)(b) ' The Site has not been identified as the habitat of any rare species and;therefore; meets this performance standard. ' ➢ Practicable and Substantially Equivalent Economic Analysis I0.58(4)(c) The Site is an existing landfill that is required to be closed under MassDEP Solid Waste Regulations at 310 CMR 19.00 The City of Salem has entered into an ' Administrative Consent Order with MassDEP which provides for certain deadlines to be met to achieve closure. There are no viable alternatives to closure of the landfill. In addition. the site has a Site Assignment under DEP Solid waste ' regulations and a minor modification to the Site Assignment will be submitted to the Board of Health. No other site in Salem is currently permitted to serve as a transfer station. :- No Significant Adverse Impact 1058(4)(d) The purposes of the work proposed under this NO1 are as follows: I o terminate current composting operations within the Riverfront Area: ' • To complete the required landfill closure in accordance with applicable state regulations; ' • To replace the existing incinerator building (retrofitted for use as a transfer station)with a new transfer station: and ' • To install new recycling and yard waste composting facilities for use by residents of the City of Salem By achieving these purposes, the project will have a netosp itive impact on the ' nverfront Brea The proposed eonstnicuon will include landfill capping and slope 1 ' l:once o^,m.nr tZ S..omysmrr Raad Salem NF I�Nn,;n rt 'ila$ ' stabilization provisions that will substantially reduce the current landfill leachate(storm water infiltrating through the landfill) entering the Forest River, site erosion and ' ongoing siltation of the river- In addition,wastes and debris currently located along the river's edge will be removed and incorporated into closure of the landfill. All of these activities will result tri a significant improvement in the water quality of the Forest ' River at and downstream of the Site. In order to minimize the impact of the work to the wetlands and riverfront, the ' Applicants propose to remove the upstream portion of the existing culvert so that approximately 60 linear feet of the river is returned to open channel flow. All slopes along the river will be stabilized with dumped rip-rap and, it necessary, geotexnle ' fabric and stone for stability. In addition, the yard waste drop-off and recycling area has been located as far away from the resource areas as possible. ' The following site-specific information is provided to show that the riverfmnt area of the Site will not have an adverse effect on the following interests. Private or Public Water Supplies There are no public water supplies within the City of Salem. The water supply for ' the City of Salem is provided from surface water reservoirs operated by the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority, none of whose reservoirS are located in the Cit) of Salem. No private water supplies are know to exist within a half- mile radius if the Site. Tberelure. it is BE-TA-s opinion that the proposed project will not have an adverse effect on this interest. ➢ Groundwater BETA has reviewed the on-line MassGIS Priority Resource Map which shows that the site is not within or within the vicinity of a mapped Zone 11 or interim ' wellhead protection area, productive or potentially productive aquifer, or othei area indicating the current or future potential use of the Site as a groundwater supply. Therefore, it is BSTA's opinion that the proposed project will not have an ' adverse effect on this interest. 7 Flood Control ' BETA has reviewed the August 15, 1985 Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency Managenic,u Agency rational Flood; Insurance Program. Map number 250102 0005 B shows the site and area within at least a 2,000-foot radius to be in Zone C — an area of minimal flooding. On the basis of this 1 12 R.J, Ic ll,'G9f classification, it is BETA's opinion that the proposed project will not have an adverse effect on this interest. ' Also note that the proposed design of the landfill cap includes the removal of visible waste material within the river.The purpose of this removal is to enhance ' the aesthetics of the river and to increase the stability at the toe of the landfill cap. The effect of the removal of this material, along with removal of the upsteam portion of the existing culvert. will result in a slight increase in flood storage ' capacity at the Site. Careful consideration will also be given to clearing the existing culvert of ' obstructions. Currently. due to debris accumulation. the culvert appears to be serving as a controlled orifice outlet for the upstream reach of the river. The obstructed culvert appears to effectively attenuate peak rates of storm water nmoff to downstream areas. S' Land Containing Shellfish ' The Site is approximately two miles from the Atlantic Ocean Surface water at the Site consists of a very small river (Forest liver) and a portion of an associated unnamed pond. Neither of these surface water bodies are tidally influenced or support any shellfish. Therefore, it is BETA s opinion that the proposed project ' will not have an adverse effect on this interest. a iiIAMIRVAIL 1 The remaining interests may be affected by the proposed project • Pollution prevention; ' • Prevention of storm damage; • Fisheries; and ' • Wildlife habitat. For each of these interests. BETA presents the e�rdence in the following sections that there are no practicable and substantially equivalent economic alternatives to the ' proposed project with less adverse effects on the [remainine] interests listed in M.G L- c.131 § 40 (i.e., flood control, prevention o`,storm damage, prevention of pollution, and wildlife habitat) and that the work, including proposed mitigation, will have no ' significant adverse impact on the riverfront area tc protect the interests identified in I A'ai re nJlmrnr I:$nmip Sv 1v ROOD Salem,11.9 4&v" it 700b ' M.G.L.c.131 § 40. ' > Prevent Pollution Approximately 60%of the Site is located within the Riverfront Area of the Forest River--The Site contains an operating transfer station.. The purpose of the work ' proposed to be performed under the anticipated OOC will result in the mrmmizatron of leachate entering the Forest River (by capping), mingauon of debris currently in the river(by its removal). and reduction of siltation and erosion ' into the river (by the capping and slope stabilization). Each of these proposed activities will result in an improvement in the water quality of the Forest River at the Site. ' It is BETA'S opinion that the work will have no adverse impact on the riverfront area's ability to protect the Interest of'pollution prevention identified in M G.L c.131 § 40. Conversely, completion of the work proposed under this NOI will significantly curtail leachate migration to the Forest River and greatly enhance the interest of pollution prevention. ' > Prevent Storm Damage For similar reasons to those described above- the permanent closure of the ' existing landfill and the rehabilitation of the transfer station activities will improve Site conditions including the prevention of storm damage. Currently. portions of the Site have minimal or no vegetative cover and erosion of Site soil ' and/or waste into the Forest River may be occurring during storm events. The presence of a properly capped and vegetated landfill cover will prevent such erosion, and act to absorb stormwater, minimizing direct overland flow of ' sturmwater into the river. > Wildlife Habitat ' In addition to the environmental improvements to the Forest River and its banks described above, the project will provide a permanent cap to the solid waste and ash currently in-place at the Site. The cap will be finished with topsoil and seeded ' with a meadow seed mix. The presence of the cap will prevent exposure to the waste and ash and substitute grass and other low, shallow-rooted vegetation for the exposed soil and brush currently at the site. it is BETA's opinion that the work ' will have no significant adverse impact on the riverfront areas ability to protect the interest of wildlife habitat identified in M.6-L. c.131 § 40. In fact. completion of the work proposed under this NOI will ldcely increase the ability of the riverfront area at the Site to protect the interest of wildlife. It is BETA's I ' 4 1 t t ]our /loam is.A,mryemr Suled em,AM Fer�mn 11 :""A experience that capped landfills provide habitat for numerous plant and animal species including birds and small ground ammals. These species typically will ' return or expand their h:bnai into a capped landfill shortl} after the completion of construction. tFisheries The Site is approximately two miles from the Atlantic Ocean. Surface water at the ' Site is at an elevation of approximately 70 feet above sea level and consists of a small liver (Forest River) and a portion of an associated unnamed pond. Neither of these surface water bodes is tidally influenced. According to the Octobcr 4, ' 2001 USGS quadrangle for the area, the Forest River flows into Thompson's Meadow approximately 'i;-mile southeast of the Site before discharging onto Salem Harbor.No river channel is shown within Thompson's Meadow. ' As previously described; the presence of the cap will prevent exposure to the waste and ash and will greatly reduce rnoff from the landfill into the Forest River It is 13ETA's opinion that the work will have no significant adverse impact ' on the forest River and will likely increase the ability of the riverfront area to protect the interest of fisheries identified in M.G.L. c.131 §40 1 1 PRECISION EA iS`OA I llae tnvor.:e8 f INOLSIP{I S.LtC 5/12/2003 i 8;582 YO&M1]OI BedIn.MA 01503 f)fire50A g8)3S9$AeSCB te£ili< wzJ pa¢rmuras@polktcm B)hro BETA Group Inc 5 Blackstone Valley place - - - - - - - 1-mcoln,RI 02865 - -- ' Engineer Client Job:t Terms Job Locatron 7.Mirabito 3622 2%10 NN 60 rauhavcn,IQ, Desr;Cvrsn Hourst{mmWy Rate Amount (11)7am 7pm TMCs Wrd 5/7 thru Tburs 5!8/08 132 60.00 '7,920 00 (12)48 HR ATRs Cvolume)Wed an thru nun 5/9108 17 200.00 2,400.00 (1)7-9auI44pni IAC Wed 5!7/08 A 0.00 260A0 ,TE REC'_ -- ' PROJECT #: TASK#' OM APPROVAL: F "Traffic Counts with Precisiou'r Thank you for your business Total 510,5e0 00 Balance Due 510,5eo.00 ' ATTACHMENT F Stormwater Management Report S T®Rl WA TER MANAGEMENT REPORT CLOSURE OF THE SALEM LANDFILL ILL AND ' REDEVELOPMENT OF THE SALEM TRANSFER STATION ' SWAMPSCOTT ROAD SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS ' Applicants: CITY OF SALEM, MA 93 Washington Street Salem, MA 01970 NORTHSIDE CARTING, INC. 210 Holt Road ' North Andover,MA 01845 1 1 ' ; cs; rl o BETA Group,Inc.

Stormwater will sheet flow off pavement areas and be collected, treated and infiltrate in the swale. This will 1 mitigate the impacts associated with the addition of impervious area. Standards for peak rate of runoff, infiltrations and water quality will be met with the design as 1 proposed. 1 COMMENTS AND CONCLUSIONS 1 This analysis has demonstrated that there will be no measurable increase in peak rate of stormwater runoff or stormwater runoff volume due to the proposed 1 development of this site. The proposed stormwater management system has been designed in accordance with DEP's Stormwater Management Policy and will be a 1 significant improvement over the existing condition. Although any site construction can impact local hydrology and water quality, the 1 plans as presented incorporate many design features intended to mitigate adverse effects to downgradient wetlands and aquifers. i 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 ' ATTACHMENT G t Photograph Log 1 r r \ a COMPOST — \ AREA CITY N/p \ MAP 7 9,20 P4 SALE68 ARCEL ACRES �NO 78 _ - --'- -- _. _ ' H LOCATION REFEREN - MAP 7 70.2 ARCEL 66 PFBa . ,....., - .""- - ACR ..-".

On behalf of Northside Carting, Inc. and the City of Salem, we have provided the following responses in hold text Copies of the referenced documents are included as Attachments. ➢ Use of filter baes in lieu of bay bales and silt fence for erosion control at limits of work. We agreed to the use of Straw Wattles'M and/or Filtrex)Jm filter socks in lieu of hay bales and silt fence, to avoid introduction of invasive species of plants. See attached product sheet in Attachment A. What will be done with resuect to eeneral site cleanup. includine stockpiled nines, curbs and miscellaneous building materials? All existing surface debris around the property,including the shoreline along the western boundary of the property,will be cleaned up and disposed off-site, or incorporated under the DEP-approved landfill cap at this site. To the extent that the miscellaneous pipes, curbs and other stockpiled materials are desired by the City, they will be relocated by City forces to an alternative storage location. Otherwise, they will become the property of Northside Carting,Inc.upon transfer of the property and the materials will either be relocated for re-use, or demolished for placement under the landfill cap or under paved areas in accordance with DEP's conditional approval of the CAAA Report and the DEP's Asphalt,Brick and Concrete(ABC)Reuse Policy. Lincoln,RI Norwood,MA Rocky Hill,CT Ms.Carey I3uques,Agent March 7, 2008 Page 2 of 3 ➢ What will haoven with the construction debris eenc'rated from demolition of the existing incinerator building and stack? In accordance with DEP's conditional approval of the CAAA Report, re-use of — - — - the demolition debris(after abatement of regulated building materials)will be permitted under the paved areas of the site to help achieve final grades. Care will be taken during placement of the C&D debris, including embedded gravel layers and compaction,to avoid future settlement. ➢ Have the banding materials, ash and other "snsvect"materials inside the incinerator buildine and stack been sampled for hazardous residuals? The answer is that most of the materials were sampled during a pre-demolition survey conducted in July 2005. The primary contaminants of concern include: • Asl)e5t4s con*� s� g bndd:szg mate-r'.al a ii 3vf�^'�, matei ials,iYali piiii2ls, gaskets, duct insulation, mastics and floor tiles); • Lead based painted surfaces; and • Pigeon guano. The ash within the chimney has not yet been tested,but we plan to test the ash for heavy metals prior to demolition. In most cases,the ash will be similar to all of the other ash on the site and will be suitable for placement under the engineered cap. In the event the total metals exceed certain threshold values, we will perform toxicity characteristic leaching procedure tests to assess management requirements. ➢ Where will the, drainage vices be installed with resvect to the engineered can for the isite? All drainage pipes will be installed above the engineered impervious liner; however,the drainage structures will be provided with a "geotextile skirt" sealed with bentonite to prevent infiltration of rainwater around the periphery of the drainage structures. The skirt will be similar to that illustrated on the guardrail detail included in Attachment C. Reference is also made to the Detail Sheet included in Attachment B. ➢ Will the guard rail supports be installed above or below the geatextile ban ier? Reference is made to the detail included in Attachment C which illustrates the guard rail installation detail. The support will penetrate the geotextile fabric to an approx➢roated depth of 4 to 6 feet below grade. A sleeve filled with a "geotextile skirt" will be installed over each support and the annular spaces will l ,j Ms. Carey Duques, Agent March 7, 2003 Page 3 of 3 Ibe filled with bentonite chips to seal the connection_ ➢ Provide a drawing showing the nronosed location of a new concrete inlet headwall on the existing culvert, or on a new culvert. as may be necessary. Reference is made to the new Site Plan included ui Attachment D. ➢ A hvdrolo eic analvsis should be urovided to substantiate sizing of a new culvert_ and/or installation of an inlet control device for flow attenuation. BETA has performed a preliminary hydrologic analysis and determined that the existing 48-inch diameter culvert is oversized for the drainage basin. Furthermore, restoring its full flow capacity could result in worsening downstream flooding problems. Based upon the initial modeling results, we will likely recommend installation of a concrete headwall/structure with an inlet control device_ In the event the existing culvert is not suitable for re-use, replacement with an 18-inch or 24-inch diameter reinfnreodrnncrete nine will i r r- be recommended. Final modeling results will be available for the next public hearing on Thursday night(3/13)_ ➢ Details of the nronosed Stormceotor® and manholes should be movided.- r Details of the drainage manholes and inlet structures were included on the detail I sheet submitted with the Supplemental NO] package submitted at the public bearing on February 28, 2008. We have, at the request of DEP,provided a complete copy of the Stormwater Management Report in Attachment E. That report includes a section of the proposed STC 900 Stormeeptor in lieu of the originally proposed 450i unit.

As ' discussed, this project is the result of years of negotiations with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, including various forms of agreements between MA DEP, the City of Salem and Northside Carting, Inc. Currently, there is an amended Administration Consent Order between the three parties that sets forth a schedule for implementation of the landfill closure and expansion of the existing transfer station. Both the City of Salem and Northside Carting are considered proponents of this project. ' Site Background The City of Salem originally constructed a municipal incinerator at the subject site in the early 1960's. It operated for approximately five years before it was taken out of service. During that time, a significant quantity of ash was generated and disposed in a landfill at the site- The site was generally abandoned from 1968 until 1975 when a portion of the incinerator building was converted to a transfer station, with permission to operate at up to 50 tons per day. ' The station was operated for several years by the City and then abandoned in the late 1980s or early 1990's. In 1994, the DEP issued a permit to operate the transfer station at up to 100 tons per day and Northside Carting was selected as operator of the transfer station under a lease ' ar angement with the City. Northside Carting has been the transfer station operator since that time. ' In early 2007, the City issued a Request for Proposals to develop the site, giving the respondents significant latitude with respect to the future use of the site, provided that the respondent assume the responsibility for closure of the landfill and all associated groundwater monitoring and ' maintenance of' the landfill cap. Two proposals were submitted-, both were from respondents who wanted to expand the existing transfer station operatwns in exchange for closure of the landfill and redevelopment of the site. In the fill of2007, the City selected Northside Carting for ' redevelopment of the snit; inCluchne expansion ofthe transfer slatwn from 100 io 406 tons per tLincoln,RI Pio;mod,MA Rocky Hill,Cr ' Mr. R chard Bourre June 2, 2008 Page 2 of 2 ' day. As part of the purchase and sales arrangement, Northside Carting has agreed to pay the City a host community fee and real estate taxes related to ongoing operation of the transfer station. In ' addition, Northside will assume responsibility for closure of the landfill, including long term monitoring requirements under the DEP's solid waste management regulations. Environmental Permitting Preliminary engineering related to design of the expanded transfer station and closure of the ' landfill has been performed and the Notice of Intent was filed with the Salem Conservation Commission earlier this year. An Order of Conditions was issued by the Salem ConContm in March 2008- A minor permit modification request is expected to he subrtvtted to the Salem ' Board of Health later this month. That request will include the various supplemental studies conducted to date that have addressed several concerns that have been raised during meetings with the Board of Health, local residents. the Conservation Commission and others. Specifically; ' they include the following: ➢ Traffic Impact Study, ' ➢ Draft Air Quality Impact Study, ➢ Noise Study; and ➢ Method ') Human Health Risk Characterization. Copies of the first three studies are included herewith: the human health risk characterization will be submitted under separate cover later today. ' 1VIEPA Thresholds ' The only identified threshold exceeded by the project is the increase in the permitted tonnage rate from 100 to 400 tons per day.

' The project includes both closure of the Salem Landfill and redevelopment of the Salem Transfer Station, including a capacity increase of the transfer station from 100 tons/day to 400 tons/day. The attached locus plan shows the location of the project site at 12 Swampscott Road, Salem,MA. The proposed project consists the following: Demolition of Existing Building The former incinerator building including the smokestack will be demolished. The construction and demolition debris will be used as backfill for the incinerator building foundation hole and also to re-grade the area surrounding the existing foundation (See DEP Conditional Approval Letter included as Attachment D). Capping of Closed Landfill ' The waste at the site consists of ash, C&D Debris, and municipal solid waste. The proposed landfill cap will likely consist of re-grading the existing soil cap to proposed grades, followed by installation of a flexible membrane liner(FML) of HDPE,or equivalent. The FML will be covered by a 12-inch sand drainage layer of topsoil and turf. A geotextile membrane with integral drainage layer may be installed in lieu of the sand drainage layer. ' After final placement of topsoil and grading to final elevations is completed, the surface of the entire landfill cap will be covered with jute erosion mats held in place with soil nails.An approved meadow and/or slope seed mix will be spread over the upper portions of the cap and a wetland seed mix will be used on the lower,river bank portions of the cap. The contours of the ' proposed capped landfill will be designed such that slopes to the Forest River will not exceed three feet horizontal by one foot vertical(3:1). Construction of New Transfer Station ' Building Construction The proposed new transfer station will include an@nclosed-metal-building,on a pile-supported poured-concrete foundation with proposed dimensions of approximately�5_feet by 100 feet: The'_new-building-footprint_will-not-exceed-by mcre_tharIJ0%the. ffoo_tprintof the current=incinerator-building,-including the-stack?k?-Th' building will be approximately two stories high (35 feet at the eaves). The building will contain two upper level truck bays designed for off-loading (dumping) waste into open top trailers parked immediately below in the lower level. A 1,500-square foot office and break room will also be included in the building. The construction of this proposed building will be permitted through a minor modification to the existing site ' assignment for this facility. n � q �,te Repaving ' The driveways associated with the new transfer station will be similar in layout to the existing paved driveways. All existing pavement will be removed and replaced as part of the transfer station upgrade. Additional paved driveways will be added to allow for the smooth flow of truck traffic within the site. A portion of the paved area at the transfer station will be used for ' parking-one area for employee parking and three parking spots for trucks used in the transfer station operations. Operations NSC proposes to operate the transfer station at a capacity of 400 tons per day. The waste will consist of construction and demolition debris,municipal solid waste,and commercial solid waste. Relocation of Leaf and Yard Waste Composting/Recycling Area Paving ' Limited project in accordance with 310 CMR 10.53(3)(e). The current leaf and yard waste composting area is an unpaved handling area that is used only by NSC trucks.In order to make this area useable by resident's automobiles,the travel lanes will be paved to the extent shown"Site Plan-West Side of Forest ' River" included. The paving will include an access road that will connect the leaf and yard waste composting/recycling area to the Transfer Station site, as well as to existing site access and egress points(curb cuts)to Swampscott Road. This access road meets one of the definitions of a limited project,i.e.,"the construction and maintenance of a new roadway or driveway ...where reasonable alternative means of access from_a public way to an upland area"of the site is unavailable. _ ' Concrete Block Push Walls A 22,000+/- square foot area will be graded and leveled for the Yard-Waste-Dropffff/Recycling Area. A push wall will be constructed of monolithic concrete blocks to facilitate loading of the leaf mulch and yard wastes for off-site transport. Note that the proposed Leaf and Yard Waste Composting/Recycling Area has been situated to minimize the amount of activity within the 100-foot buffer zone. Operation ' NSC--proposes-to=continue-the_operation=of-th-e�Ieaf-and-yard-waste-composting_acea-on a 6-day per week, year round basis. Sunday hours will be added during three week periods in the spring and fall. Leaf and yard wastes will be loaded and shipped from the Site, as required. During periods of heavy usage,the leaf and yard ' wastes may be shipped as frequently as daily. However,during most times of the year,shipments will be on the order of one to four times a month. Site Improvements ' Partial Removal of Forest River Culvert The proposed plan includes the removal of approximately sixty (60) linear feet of the upstream portion of the concrete culvert that conveys the Forest River under the existing access road to the composting area located on the west side of the Site. The material excavated to allow removal of that portion of the culvert will be placed on-site within the limits of the waste and incorporated into the capped portion of the landfill. Before any disturbance of soil and/or waste occurs, a continuous row of staked hay bales and silt fence will be installed along ' the water's edge.During any excavation along river bank,temporary silt curtains will be installed where the depth of the river makes their use possible. After the culvert removal is completed,the remaining material forming the banks of the Forest River will be landfill solid waste and/or ash and will thus be capped as part of the landfill closure. The pre-capping grade of the waste/ash will be altered such that(1)no slope is steeper than three horizontal to one vertical and(2)sufficient room is created ' to allow the placement of the landfill cap (proposed to consist of a leveling layer of soil or sand, followed by a flexible membrane liner constructed of HDPE,or equivalent, covered by a sand drainage layer and a 12-inch layer of topsoil and turf). As final grading and placement of topsoil to final elevations is completed, landfill slopes leading down to the Forest River will be covered with jute erosion mats held in place with soil nails. An approved wetland seed mix will be spread over the newly- created landfill cap. Removal of Debris from the Forest River Visible debris from the Forest River will be removed through the use of an extended boom on an excavator. The excavator ' will be located at the top of the embankment, so as to minimize damage during debris removal. The removed material will either be incorporated into the capped portion of the landfill or transported off-site for recycling or disposal. Note: The remaining culvert will be cleaned, inspected and replaced, as deemed necessary by a registered Professional ' Engineer.

The City has not signed ' the Corrective Action Alternative Analysis (CAAA) application. In consideration of the need to proceed to design of this project and the degree of conformity of the selected option to a standard design,the Department has elected to waive the signatory ' requirement for this application. It will be necessary that the appropriate "responsible official" of the City of Salem sign the application for review of the Corrective Action Design. ' The CAAA reviews 5 options. The first 2 options (;Option 1] the need for"more stringent closure actions" than defined in 310 C-MR 19.112 and [Option 2] the ability to allow a "less stringent closure actions° than defined m 310 CMR 19.112) and the"no 1 si50409fs-uac O4/14/05 1 FACT SHEET File Number: W062414 Salem I•andfli R, Transfer Station Page 3 of 4 Corrective Actions Alternatives Analysis build" option [Option 5] are only summarily described and examined. The focus of the ' report is a"standard" option [Option 31 and a"modified" option[Option 4]. Options 2 and 5 are rejected as not meeting the goals of the regulatory standards for landfill closures. - Option 1 is rejected as the results of the Comprehensive Site Assessment(CSA) did not ' indicate a need- The City's engineers recommend the selection of Option 4 for the closure of the landfill. Under Option 3: * The existing landfill would be capped with a low permeability soil or FML cap. * All waste would be retained within the existing waste limits. The River Front of the Forest River would be remediated by: ' i. excavating the waste from the edge of the river, H. constructing a concrete bin type retaining wall along the edge of ' the river, iii. backfilling the retaining wall with the excavated waste. This option would not make any changes to the existing transfer station or other ' improvements to the site outside of the existing lirris waste. t Option 3 describes using an FML to construct the cap along the slopes facing the river. As described the FML would be placed at a gradient of 3:1, and excavated waste would be "stored"behind a retaining wall constructed next to the river. The Department ' assumes it is meantthat the excavated waste will be used as permanent bacIdill behind the retaining wall. The described River Front remediation would result in waste materials being placed above the cap. This element of the design does not comply with minimal requirements for the capping of the waste material. However,the design is amenable to alteration to ' a correct this deficiency. ' Under Option 4 the landfill would be capped with a low permeability soil or FML cap as included at Option 3. In addition: The old incinerator building(of which part is used as the existing transfer ' station)would be razed. s;So4os_"s.d"c 04114/05 1 ' FACT SHEET File Number:W062414 Salem Landfill &Transfer Station Page 4 of 4 Corrective Actions Alternatives Analysis ' * The River Front of the Forest River would be remediated by excavating waste from along the river and regarding the landfill slope' (currently varying from 1:1 to 2:1)to a gradient of 3:1. * Forest River will be further remediated by removal of the C&D waste materials from the area of the culvert and reconstructing the river crossing with clean fill. ' * The C&D debris from razing the incinerator, along with the waste excavated from the River Front would be used to backfill the area of the incinerator building. A new transfer station,with access driveways and aprons,would be constructed. * A new salt shed would be constructed on the portion of the property on the ' opposite side of the Forest River(the area currently used for the Town's leaf&yard waste composting area.). ' As proposed the new building would retain the same setback from the street side property line as the current building(circa 40 feet). Option.4 proposes to use the C&D debris and excavated waste as fill under the new transfer station pursuant to a Beneficial Use Determination(BUD). This type of approval willnot Iikely be appropriate. However,the design will likely be amenable to extension of the waste area and cap to beneath the new transfer station building. Option 4 includes construction of a new salt shed on the property. As identified in the ' plans available at this time, the area where the salt shed is proposed has not been used for solid waste (asb,MSR) disposal. The area is currently being used for leaf&yard waste composting an activity exempt pursuant to 310 CMR 16.05 4 As described in the P g- n P P Oro)- CSA and noted on the plan included with the CAAA,waste disposal at the site was ' limited principally to the portion of the site east of Forest River. Some construction& demolition waste(C&D debris) disposal also occurred within the immediate vicinity of the Forest River as part of establishing access across the Forest River to the portion of the ' west of the river- an approximately 160 foot reach of the river was placed into a culvert and the river channel at the culvert was filled with C&D debris materials. ' The Department, therefore, deems the portion of the site west of the Forest River(not including the area of C&D disposal)to be a separate and distinct area from the waste disposal area of the site. Therefore,the area where the salt shed is to be located is not subject to review and approval as a post closure use for the purpose of constructing a salt shed as proposed.

However- minor temporary alteration of the wetland ' resource area (450+/- square feet) will be required to accommodate installation of the landfill cap. For mitigation, at the Commissions option; we propose to eliminate the 601/-foot upstream section of the existing cuhen, thereby creating ' approximately 600 square feet of resource area to compensate for the temporary alteration of the rivers edge during construction of the cap. i Protection of Rare Species 10.58(4)(b) ' The Site has not been identified as the habitat of any rare species and,therefore; meets this performance standard. ➢ Practicable and Substantially Equivalent Economic Analysis 10.58(4)(c) ' The Site is an existing landfill that is required to be closed under MassDEP Solid Waste Regulations at 310 CMR 19.00. The City of Salem has entered into an ' Administrative Consent Order with MassDEP which provides for certain deadlines to be met to achieve closure. There are no viable alternatives to closure of the landfill. In addition. the site has a Site Assignment under DEP Solid waste ' regulations and a minor modification to the Site Assignment will be submitted to the Board of Health. No other site in Salcm is currently permitted to serve as a transfer station. ' No Significant Adverse Impact 10.58(4)(d) The purposes of the work proposed under this NOI are as follows: T o terminate current composting operations within the Riverfront Area: ' • To complete the required landfill closure in accordance with applicable state regulations; ' • To replace the existing mcmerator building (retrofitted for use as a transfer station)with a new transfer station: and t • To install new recycling and yard waste composting facilities for use by residents of the City,of Salem By achieving these purposes; the project will have a netosp itive impact on the ' neerfront arca The proposed construction will include landfill capping and slope Nmn. Rind Solem .M.4 F.ho"'.i 700 stabilization provisions that will substantially reduce the current landfill leachate(storm water infiltrating through the landfill) entering the Forest River. site erosion and ' ongoing siltation of the river- In addition,wastes and debris currently located alone the river's edge will be removed and incorporated into closure of the landfill. All of these activities will result in a significant improvement in the water quality of the Forest ' River at and downstream of the Site. In order to minimize the impact of the work to the wetlands and riverfront, the ' Applicants propose to remove the upstream portion of the existing culvert so that approximately 60 linear feet of the river is returned to open channel flow All slopes along the river will be stabilized with dumped rip-rap and. if necessary, geotexule ' fabric and stone for stability. In addition; the yard waste drop-off and recycling area has been located as far away from the resource areas as possible. The following ste-specific information is provided to show that the fierfront area of ' the Site will not have an adverse effect on the following interests: S- Private or Public Water Supplies There are no public water supplies within the City of Salem.The water supply for ' the City of Salem is provided from surface water reservoirs operated by the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority, none of whose reservoirs are located in the City of Salem. No private water supplies are know to exist within a halt= ' mile radius if the Site. Therefore- it is BETA's opinion that the proposed project will not have an adverse effect on this interest. ' > Groundwater BETA has reviewed the on-line Mass GIS priority Resource Map which Shows that the site is not within or within the vicinity of a mapped 'Zone 11 or interim ' wellhead protection area, productive or potentially productive aquifer, or other area indicating the current or future potential use of the Site as a groundwater supply. Therefore,it is BEI A's opinion that the proposed project will not have art ' adverse effect on this interest. 7 Flood Control ' BETA has reviewed the August 15, 1935 Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the federal Emergency Managemetn Agency National Flood Insurance Program. Map number 250102 0005 B shows the site and area within at least a 2.000-foot ' radius to be in Zone C — an area of minimal floodme. On the basis of this ' A'ance o'/menr II Reed, a!nn V9 Fz b>ricr-: ?106 classification; it is BETA's opinion that the proposed project will not have an adverse effect on this interest. ' Also note that the proposed design of the landfill cap includes the removal of visible waste material within the river. The purpose of this removal-is to enhance ' the aesthetics of the river and to increase the stability at the toe of the landfill cap. The effect of the removal of this material. along with removal of the upsteam portion of the existing culvert. will result in a slight increase in flood storage ' capacity at the Site. Careful consideration will also be given to clearing the existing culvert of ' obstructions- Currently; due to debris accumulation. the culvert appears to be servmg as a controlled orifice outlet for the upstream reach of the river. the obstructed culvert appears to effectively attenuate peak rates of storm water ' runoff to downstream areas. ➢ Land Containing SheLfish ' The Site is approximately two miles from the Atlantic Ocean Surface water at the Site consists of a very small river (Forest River) and a portion of an associated unnamed pond. Neither of these surface water bodies are tidally influenced or ' support any shellfish. Therefore- it is BE]A's opinion that the proposed project will not have an adverse effect on this interest 'rhe remaining interests may be affected by the proposed project. • Pollution Prevention; • Prevention of storm damage; • Fisheries; and ' • Wildlife habitat For each of these interests. BETA presents the evidence in the following sections that there are no practicable and substantially equivalent economic alternatives to the ' proposed project with less adverse effects on the [remaining] interests listed in M.G.L. c.131 § 40 (i.e., flood control, prevention o; storm damage, prevention of pollution, and wildlife habitat) and that the work. including proposed mitigation. will have no tsignificant adverse impact on the riverfront area to protect the interests identified in 1 1 , 1 4oere nJlnrem 1: Rood, S.ke AIA r rnneary ii 2v05 ' M G.L.. c.131 § 40. Y Prevent Pollution Approximately 60%of the Site is located within the Riverfront Area of the Forest River. 'Fhe Site contains an operating uaitsfer station:The purpose of-the work ' proposed to be performed under the anticipated OOC will result in the minimization of leachate entering the Forest River (by capping). mtugation of debris currently in the river(by its removal). and reduction of siltation and erosion ' into the river (by the capping and slope stabilization). Each of these proposed activities will result in an improvement in the <<:ater quanty of the Forest River at the Site. ' It is BETA's opinion that the work will have no adverse impact on the riverfront area's ability to protect the interest of pollution prevention identified in M.G.L. ' c.131 § 40. Conversely, completion of the work proposed under this NOI will significantly curtail leachate migration to the Forest River and greatly enhance the interest of pollution prevention. ' Prevent Storm Damage For similar reasons to those described above; the permanent closure of the ' existing landfill and the rehabilitation of the transfer station activities will improve Site conditions including the prevention of storm damage. Currently, portions of the Site have minimal or no vegetative cover and erosion of Site soil ' and/or waste into the Forest River may be occurring durine storm events. 'fhe presence of a properly capped and vegetated landfill cover will prevent such erosion, and act to absorb stormwater, minimizing direct overland flow of stormwater into the river. Wildlife Habitat ' In addition to the environmental iinpmvements to the Forest River and its banks described above, the project will provide a permanent cap to the solid waste and ash currently in-place at the Site. The cap will be finished with topsoil and seeded ' with a meadow seed mix. The presence of the cap will prevent exposure to the waste and ash and substitute grass and other low, shallow-rooted vegetation for the exposed soil and brush currently at the site. It is BETA's opinion that the work ' will have no significant adverse impact on the riverfront area's ability to protect the interest of wildlife habitat identified in KG L. c.131 § 40. In fact.completion of the work proposed under this NOI will likely increase the ability of the riverfront area at the Site to protect the iniciest of wildlife. It is BETA's 1 doanjLuun I.S.ampxor!fwd, Srinn,MA Ftnmm��r ZiiOE experience that capped landfills provide habitat for numerous plant and animal species including birds and small ground animals These species iVpicallv will ' return nr expand their habitat into a capped landfill shortly after the completion of construction. Fisheries 7 he Site is approximately two miles from the Atlantic Ocean Surface water at the Site is at an elevation of approximately 70 feet above sea level and consists of a ' small river (Forest River) and a portion of an associated unnamed pond. Neither of these surface water bodies is tidally influenced. According to the October 4; ' 2001 USGS quadrangle for the area. the Forest River flows into Ihompson's Meadow approximately '/,-mile southeast of the Situ before discharging onto Salem I larbor.No river channel is shown within Thompson-s Meadow. ' As previously described. the presence of the cap will prevent exposure to the waste and ash and will greatly reduce runoff from the landfill into the Forest River. It is BETA's opinion that the work will have no significant adverse impact ' on the Forest River and will likely increase the ability of the nverfront area to protect the interest of fisheries identified in M.G.L. c.131 40. t 1 t ' —5— tltl bEJev�..

The objective of this analysis is to show that the net peak rate and volume of stormwater discharge from the site in the Proposed Conditions will be equal to or less than the discharge under the Existing Conditions for the two, ten, and one hundred year rainfall events Accordingly, development of the site as it pertains to stormwater runoff will not ' adversely impact adjacent or downgradient properties. ' CALCULATION METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS Stormwater runoff is analyzed using the following ' • "HydroCADTU Stormwater Modeling System," by Applied Microcomputer Systems based upon SCS Technical Releases No. 55 and 20 for generating ' hydraulic calculations including peak flows and runoff volumes. Rational Method (Q = CIA) used to size pipes for the 10 year storm EQUATIONS AND SOURCES OF DATA USED ' • Q = 1 A86(A)/n(R)2f3(S)12 - Manning's Equation for Rational Method 24 Hour Rainfall data- Technical Release No. 40. t 2yr= 310 in 10 yr =4.55 in. 100 yr = 650 in Soils information from the Middlesex County from the Natural Resources ' Conservation Service (NRCS) formally SCS. Soils within the construction limits is predominately Hinckley, loamy sand within the A hydraulic group. t POINT OF ANALYSIS ' This entire project site is located within the Forest P,iver watershed The analysis point is the river. 1 1 Z 1 1 ' PROJECT DESCRIPTION ' The proposed project includes demolishing the incinerator building, capping the landfill, building a new transfer station, paving access drives. loading and parking ' areas It also includes constructing an area to allow for yard waste transfer ' For the land fill site, stormwater will be collected in a system of catchbasins and pipes, routed through a water quality unit (Stormceptor) to obtain 80% TSS removal ' and be discharged to the Forest River For the yard waste transfer site, the entire area will be surrounded by a vegetated treatment swale Stormwater will sheet flow off pavement areas and be collected, treated and infiltrate in the swale. This will ' mitigate the impacts associated with the addition of impervious area. Standards for peak rate of runoff, infiltrations and water quality will be met with the design as proposed. 1 ' COMMENTS AND CONCLUSIONS tThis analysis has demonstrated that there will be no measurable increase in pealk rate of stormwater runoff or stormwater runoff volume due to the proposed ' development of this site. The proposed stormwater management system has been designed in accordance with DEP's Stormwater Management Policy and will be a signrficant improvement over the existing condition. ' Although any site construction can impact local hydrology and water quality, the plans as presented incorporate many design features intended to mitigate adverse effects to downgradient wetlands and aquifers. 1 ' ATTACHMENT G Photograph Log r \ = COMPOST - \ AREA - -- - - \ I r \ .MAPT� F SALEM ----------- H LOCA l`J PHOTOGRAP •:Bo — _.._.._.._.._.

Copies of the referenced documents are included as Attachments. r v How will the material exposed during the Process of day-liphting the river be handled? Will it be capped? The waste materials will be removed from the subject portion of the river and placed under the area to be capped to the east of the Forest River. All materials will be capped in accordance with the detail presented as Attachment A. ' r New plans to reflect the removal of the 60 feet of culverted river. Reference is made to Attachment B. ' v Width of the roadway leading,to the rear of the site.Proposed drop-off area for residents,can it accommodate two cars? The width or the roadway to the yard waste and recyclable drop-off area will be a minimum of 26 feet to accommodate two-way traffic and large vehicles used to ship the yard wastes and recyclables from the site. That change will be reflected ' in updated site plans to be submitted to the Commission. Detail of guardrails to be located along roadwav leading to the rear of the site- Reference is made to the Details Sheet included as Attachment C. r Lincoln,RI Norwood,MA Rocky Hill,CT r Ms.Carey Baques,Agent I ebruary28,2008 Page 2 of 3 Profile showing layers that make up the cap.

Y Concerns about existing catch basins)on site and procedure to discontinue it/them All existing catch basins will be removed and the associated drainage lines will either be crushed and placed under the cap of the landfill or removed and disposed of off-site_ Y Location of proposed guardrails throughout entire site,retaining walls are noted but not guardrails. 1 Reference is made to the Site Plan included as Attachment B which illustrates the location of the guard rail. > Lack of curbs;how will cape cod berms hold up to the plows during winter;what is outlined in the O&M plan? The O&M plan will include a provision for annual spring inspection and repair i of any damaged sections of the Cape Cod berm. I ➢ Phase 11 Comprehensive Site Assessment,mentioned that you could bring a map to the next meeting showing the location of the test pits. We have included to location plans for test borings (not test pits) as Attachments A and F. They illustrate the locations of all test borings taken at the site; copies of boring logs are included in the Appendix to this submittal. Section otproperty that is outside of the property line—How to handle? The City Solicitor has contacted the Property Owner(North Shore Self Storage) and a tentative agreement to execute a construction easement to allow site access for purposes of landfill closure has been reached. That agreement is currently 1 under development and twin be execated seen. Northside Carting,Inc.may, at its discretion, acquire that portion of the adjacent parcel after transfer of the City-owned property to Northside Carting,Inc_ ➢ Final restoration plans, details about plantings,what and how restoration woidd occm along river bank and other sections of the site. No plantings will be permitted on any portions of the capped landfill and no other adjacent areas will be disturbed_ The slopes of the landfill,including those along the river,will be re-seeded with a"slope mix" specifically developed with i 1 �� Ms.Carey Duques,Agent Febmary 28,2008 _ Page 3 of 3 deep rooted grasses that will hold the embankment from sloughing oft to the river.

On behalf of Northside Carting, Inc. and the City of Salem, we have provided the following responses in bold text Copies of the referenced documents are included as Attachments. ➢ Use of filter baps in lieu of bav bales and silt fence for erosion control at limits of work. We agreed to the use of Straw Wattles"',, and/or FiltreWm filter socks in lieu of hay bales and silt fence, to avoid introduction of invasive species of plants. See attached product sheet in Attachment A. ➢ What will be done with reSDect to general site cleanum including stockpiled nioes. curbs and miscellaneous building materials? ' All existing surface debris around the property, including the shoreline along the western boundary of the property,will be cleaned up and disposed off-site, or incorporated under the DEP-approved landfill cap at this site. To the extent that the miseeflaneous pipes, curbs and other stockpiled materials are desired by the City,they will be relocated by City forces to an alternative storage location. Otherwise,they will become the property of Northside Carting, Inc.upon ' transfer of the property and the materials will either be relocated for re-use, or demolished for placement under the landfill cap or under paved areas in accordance with DEP's conditional approval of the CAAA Report and the DEP's Asphalt, Brick and Concrete (ABC) Re-use Policy. 1 Lincoln,Ri Norwood,MA Rocky Hill,CT Ms-Carey Duquez, Agent March?, 2008 Page 2 of 3 Y _ ➢ What will haouen with the construction debris venerated from demolition of the existing incinerator buildine and stack? In accordance with DEP's conditional approval of the CAAA Report,re-use of -_; - the demolition debris(after abatement of regulated building materials)will be permitted under the paved areas of the site to help achieve final grades. Care will be taken during placement of the C&D debris, including embedded gravel layers and compaction,to avoid future settlement. ➢ Have the buildina materials. ash and other"susnect"materials inside the incinerator building and stack been sampled for hazardous residuals? The answer is that most of the materials were sampled during a pre-demolition survey conducted in July 2005. The primary contaminants of concern include- Asbestos containing buildingmaterials (ruo .ng materials,wail panels, gaskets, duct insulation,mastics and floor tiles); • Lead based painted surfaces; and • Pigeon guano. The ash within the chimney has not yet been tested,but we plan to test the ash for heavy metals prior to demolition. In most cases,the ash will be similar to all of the other ash on the site and will be suitable for placement under the engineered cap. In the event the total metals exceed certain threshold values, we will perform toxicity characteristic leaching procedure tests to assess management requirements. ➢ Where will the drainaac nipes be installed with respect to the engineered can for the site? All drainage pipes will be installed above the engineered impervious liner; 1 however, the drainage structures will be provided with a "geotextile skirt" sealed with bentonite to prevent infiltration of rainwater around the periphery of the drainage structures. The skirt will be similar to that illustrated on the guardrail detail included in Attachment C. Reference is also made to the Detail Sheet included in Attachment B. ➢ Will the i4uard rail supports be installed above or below the geotextile barrier? Reference is made to the detail included in Attachment C which illustrates the guard rail 'installation detail. The support will penetrate the geotextile fabric to an approximated depth of 4 to 6 feet below grade. A sleeve f-rlled with a 1 "geotextile skirt" will be installed over each support and the annular spaces will 11 Ms.Carey Duques, Agent March 7, 2008 Page 3 of 3 ' be filled with bentonite chips to seal the connection. ➢ Provide a drawine showine the uronosed location of a new concrete inlet headwall on the existine culvert.or on a new culvert. as may be necessary. -- _ -- - Reference is made to-the new Site Plan miaiaded in Aftacbinent D. ➢ A hvdrolo eic analvsis should be Drovided to substantiate sizing of a new culvert and/or installation of an inlet control device for flow attenuation.- BETA has performed a preliminary hydrologic analysis and determined that the existing 48-inch diameter culvert is oversized for the drainage basin. Furthermore, restoring its full flow capacity could result in worsening downstream flooding problems. Based upon the initial modeling results,we will likely recommend installation of a concrete headwall/structure with an inlet control device. In the event the existing culvert is not suitable for re-use, replacement with an 18-inch or 24-inch d-iameter reinforced concreto pipe w.n be recommended. Final modeling results will be available for the next public hearing on Thursday night(3/13). ➢ Details of the nronosed Stormcentor® and manholes should be nrovided- Details of the drainage manholes and inlet structures were included on the detail sheet submitted with the Supplemental NO] package submitted at the public hearing on February 28, 2008. We have, at the request of DEP, provided a complete copy of the Stormwater Management Report in Attachment E. That report includes a section of the proposed STC 900 Stormceptor0 in lieu of the originally proposed 450i unit. 1 We trust that these responses adequately address the concerns of the Commission at this time- Please call me with any further questions w concerns.
