Closed_Blackberry_Valley_Landfill.pdf

This document is a closure report for the Blackberry Valley Landfill prepared by Greenville County, South Carolina. The report documents the final status and closure procedures for the landfill facility, which is associated with the County's solid waste operations. The closure process involves compliance with environmental regulations and proper management of the facility to ensure safe decommissioning. The report outlines the steps taken to prepare the landfill for closure, including final cover installation, monitoring protocols, and environmental assessments required to meet state and federal regulatory standards.

The closure of Blackberry Valley Landfill is directly relevant to the concurrent timber management consulting services contract opportunity, as the 1,765 acres of County property managed under the forestry services contract includes land associated with solid waste facilities. Contractors must coordinate timber management activities with landfill closure schedules and ongoing operational requirements, including maintenance of vegetative buffers established through regulatory agreements, protection of stormwater infrastructure and MS4 features, and preservation of landfill monitoring wells. The timber management consultant will need to balance forest stewardship objectives with the operational constraints imposed by the landfill closure process and long-term site management needs.
