SITE SUMMARY

1.0 SITE CONDITIONS

This section discusses the observed conditions on the Site, as defined as the properties (Tax

Parcels 7578-00-44-3252 and 7578-00-44-8118) on which the Disposal Area is located. The

Disposal Area is defined as the area observed or reported to have been used for waste placement

or burial. The boundary (perimeter) of this area is the observed limit of waste material based on

field observations and the inferred limit based on a review of historical aerial photographs. The

site visit was conducted on February 17, 2010. Photographs illustrating site conditions are

included in Appendix D.

The Site is located in Montgomery County, near Biscoe, NC. Driving directions to the Site from

the intersection of US-220 and NC Highway 27/24 are as follows:

1. Drive east on NC Highway 27/24 approximately 0.7 mile.

2. Turn right onto Martin Road and drive approximately 0.5 mile.

3. The entrance to the Disposal Area is located to the south of the residence at 303 Martin

Road.

1.1 On-site Structures

The McIntyre family owns a single-family residence and garage located on the northern portion

of the Site. The residence is a single-wide mobile home with crawlspace and the garage is on a

concrete slab. The residence is approximately 80 feet north of the Disposal Area boundary in an

apparent up-gradient direction from the Disposal Area.

1.2 Current Site Usage

The McIntyre residence is located on the north central part of the Site approximately 80 feet

from the Disposal Area in an apparent up-gradient direction. According to Ms. Lori McIntyre,

the Disposal Area is no longer used for disposal. However, observed evidence of recent human

activity included the disposal of trash and wood debris on the northern part of the Disposal Area.

1.3 On-Site Water Supply Wells and Intakes

A water supply well was not observed on the Site. Ms. McIntyre stated that her residence was

served by a public water supply system. Residences in the vicinity of the site appeared to have

private water wells in addition to access to public water.

1.4 Surface Water Features

An unnamed intermittent stream is located along the eastern portion of the Disposal Area. The

stream is approximately three feet wide with a muddy stream bed and was slowly flowing to

the south into a pond. The pond located south of the Site was approximately 5.5 acres in size

with cloudy water at the time of the site visit. Standing water was observed on the

southeastern part of the Disposal Area. The standing water was approximately four feet by six

feet wide. The water was cloudy and had a film on the surface of the water at the time of the

site visit.

1.5 Disposal Area

Access to the Disposal Area is from Martin Road to the south of the residence (Photo 1). The

Disposal Area occupies 2.5 acres based on the estimated Disposal Area perimeter shown on

Figures 1 through 3.

Biscoe Old Town Dump

NONCD 0000672

The ground surface of the Disposal Area slopes generally toward the southeast. A comparison of

the topography from the 1983 USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle map (10 foot contours,

based on 1977 aerial photography) with the 2005 topographic map from NCDOT (4 foot

contours), indicates that the topography on the eastern part of the Disposal Area has increased in

elevation up to 5 to 10 feet. The LiDAR Shaded Relief Map (Figure 5) shows an anomalous

mound to the north of the pond and a relatively flattened area on the west side of the Disposal

Area. The depth of waste is estimated based on a comparison of topographic maps of different

vintages constructed using different methods. Differences between elevations on the maps may

reflect actual elevation changes or may be apparent differences due to the different map making

methods. The elevation comparisons are approximate and differences in scale and methods of

mapping are not sufficient to evaluate some changes in topography.

The reported years of operation were from the mid 1950’s to 1980, so the 1983 USGS map may

have represented the land surface at or near the end of the disposal period. The pond was not

constructed before 1983, according to the historical aerial photographs. The land surface in 1983,

near the end of the disposal period, consisted of two drainages sloping gradually to the southeast,

located to the north and south of the Disposal Area.

GPS coordinates were taken of the Disposal Area perimeter on the McIntyre property. The

approximate Disposal Area perimeter is illustrated on the figures and on aerial photographs in

Appendix E. A table of GPS coordinates for the Site entrance and the Site perimeter is presented

in Table 1. The southeastern part of the Disposal Area was not accessed because we did not

receive permission by Mr. John Gregory Shuping to go onto his property. The southeastern

perimeter of the Disposal Area was delineated based on aerial photographs and observations

taken from Ms. McIntyre’s property. The Disposal Area perimeter location is approximate and is

based on visual observations made at the time of the site visit and interpretation of aerial

photographs. Figures 4 and 5 show LiDAR shaded relief superimposed on the Disposal Area.

1.6 Disposal Area Conditions

The Disposal Area was covered with tall grasses, briars and deciduous trees approximately 4 to

10 inches in diameter. Exposed disposal material consisted of recent trash and wood debris on

the northern part of the Disposal Area, and bricks and concrete on the southeastern portion of the

Disposal Area. A berm was located along the southwestern boundary of the Disposal Area. A

vegetation covered mound approximately seven feet in height and about 225 feet in diameter was

present on the Disposal Area.

The observed Disposal Area was on multiple tax parcels, Parcel Numbers 7578-00-44-3252 and

7578-00-44-8118. The perimeter of the Disposal Area was visually evident with the majority of

the Disposal Area on Parcel Number 7578-00-44-3252.

Hummocky topography with mounds approximately six feet in height were observed on the

southeastern part of the Disposal Area. No notable erosion, depressions, offensive odors, stained

or discolored soils, or slope failures were observed during the site visit.

1.7 Evidence of Human Activity

During the site visit evidence of recent dumping of trash and wood debris was observed on the

northern portion of the Disposal Area (Photo 3 and 4).

1.8 Potential Landfill Gas Migration Pathways

There were no visible or evident potential gas migration pathways such as stormwater drain

systems, underground utilities, septic systems, or drain fields on the Disposal Area.

1.9 Physical Barriers

Site access is provided by a gravel driveway from Martin Road. The Disposal Area is located to

the south and east of the residence. Physical barriers were not observed on the Site or Disposal

Area during the site visit.

1.10 Other Pertinent Information

Some history of the Site was obtained during conversations with persons familiar with the Site.

The information obtained indicates that:

• Mr. David Asbill, Town of Biscoe Public Works Department Superintendent, was aware

of the location of the Biscoe Old Town Dump. He said it was near the intersection of

Martin Road and Post Office Road and was willing to take Schnabel to the Site.

• Mr. Asbill stated that the Site is located on Mr. John McIntyre’s property.

• Mr. Asbill stated that Mr. John McIntyre no longer resides at 303 Martin Road, Biscoe,

NC 27209, but his ex-wife Ms. Lori McInytre now owns the property.

• Mr. Asbill stated that the Town of Biscoe did not own this Disposal Area. He stated that

local residences and mills were allowed to dump at this Site that used to be owned and

operated by Mr. Tom Hurley. Mr. Asbill stated that Tom Hurley is deceased.

• Mr. Asbill stated that the Disposal Area was opened between 1963 and 1965 and was

closed in 1980. He stated that Mr. McIntyre later bought the property from Mr. Tom

Hurley.

• Mr. Asbill stated that nearby residences are served by a public water supply but may also

have private drinking water wells.

• Ms. Lori McIntyre, property owner, stated that the Disposal Area is located on her

property behind her residence. She gave verbal permission for Schnabel staff to access

the Site.

• Ms. McIntyre did not have any knowledge about the history of the Site.

Notes from conversations with people familiar with the site are included in Appendix C. The

information obtained from these conversations has not been verified or confirmed.
