How long will the landfill gas and leachate systems be monitored?
It is anticipated that it will take a minimum of thirty years before garbage decomposition is complete, associated gas production and settlement cease, and leachate fully drains from the site. As these processes occur, there will be a continuing need for regular maintenance, monitoring, and evaluation of the site and systems that have been put into place, primarily the final cover, landfill gas (LFG), and leachate systems, as well as the extensive network of monitoring wells. It is essential that access to these systems be preserved during this time for inspection, maintenance, and repair.
