Mr. Robert McClellon November 1, 2010 Page 4 Implementation Procedure In summary, the following procedure is recommended for the LFG and SVE well evaluation and implementation: • Installation of the vertical LFG extraction wells and connection to the Landfill Gas Collection and Control System(GCCS); • Installation of the SVE wells and connection to the GCCS as proposed in the Work Plan and this document; • Evaluation of the proper vacuum at each SVE well to obtain the ideal ROI and LFG quality as described in this document. The evaluation period is estimated to be three (3) months to one year in order to properly assess what the ideal vacuum and ROI will be under varying seasonal conditions (monitoring probe data indicate that LFG migration varies with seasonal variations such as precipitation, barometric pressure, and temperature. Therefore, the term of the evaluation period must capture seasonal variations); • Submission of an evaluation report within 60 days of the end of the evaluation period demonstrating the field procedures utilized during the evaluation period, estimated ROI of each SVE well, the impact of the SVE wells on reducing LFG migration, and the recommended approach for the utilization of the SVE wells based on the evaluation. This report will also demonstrate the effect of the SVE wells on the LFG concentrations observed in perimeter probes GP-10, GP-11, and GP-12; and • Implementation of the long-term SVE well operational procedure as documented in the evaluation report and as discussed above. The operation of the SVE wells will be combined with long-term monitoring of the LFG wells, SVE wells, and perimeter probes as described above to obtain the best results possible. Changes to the procedure will be made as needed to maintain optimal effectiveness of the operations and monitoring plan.
