2.0 Description of Proposed Project <br />2.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br />The ERL proposes to develop an additional approximately 13 acres of MSW landfill <br />space on the southern-most portion of the existing landfill property. The proposed <br />expansion will provide approximately 1,671,000 cubic yards of additional MSW <br />capacity. Depending on waste flow quantities, the proposed expansion would extend the <br />operational life of the landfill approximately 4 to 7 years by providing additional landfill <br />capacity. <br />2.2 CURRENT FACILITIES AND OPERATIONS <br />Landfill operations are performed under the direction and oversight of licensed landfill <br />operators. In addition to t~~pical utilities such as water, sewer, electricity, and phone <br />service, infrastructure requirements special to the landfill are: leachate and gas <br />condensate storage facilities and their associated leachate and gas piping components. <br />As far as landfill facility structures, the ERL currently has the following on-site <br />buildings: <br />• Scalehouse: Located on the east side of the facility with scales on both sides. <br />Landfill Office and Maintenance Building: Precast concrete building located <br />northeast of the existing MSW area. The building houses the landfill offices, <br />maintenance area, including the oil storage facility. <br />• Gas-to Energy Plant: Precast concrete building on the northeast end of the <br />current MSW facility just east of the landfill office.
