The site must be maintained <br /> ~ to prevent erosion, maintain drainage if subsidence <br /> : ~ occurs and minimize infiltration. The current proposal <br /> suggests the site might ultimately be utilized as a <br /> gol! course. Appropriate alternatives might include <br /> a wildlife refuge or recreational field. T~e effec~ <br /> ~ of supplemental watering should be evaluated for the <br /> golf course alternative. <br /> <br /> O$,erational Alternatives <br /> <br /> T~e EIS should evaluate whether there will be adverse impacts <br /> , title to the operatic, hal methods, filling sequence, or the <br /> ~ O])erating hours proposed for the expansion. If adverse is- <br /> ,, Pa~CtS are identified in such areas as noise, litter, dust, <br /> ir!'d traffic, the EiS should evaluate how much improvement <br /> w( uld result from alternative methods or restrictions on <br /> ~ ~ ti e landfill operating hours. The EIS should further <br /> j e~aluate existing and recommended local regulatory actions <br /> W,hich are appropriate to control nuisance impacts such as <br /> ~ ~ noise, litter, dust, and traffic· <br /> <br />A(l~it~onal Drillin~ Around Existin~ Landfill Organics Investi$a~i~ <br /> <br />Metropolitan Council should be aware of recent drilling and <br />p!~nn~d installations at the landfill which will b~ of use in <br />th~ E~S. Eight soil borings, £-12 through K-19, have recently <br />be~~ ~ompleted. K-16 and K-19 are through the methane barrier <br />ihiith~ southeast part of the existing landfill. K-18 is nor.~h <br />o~f~ th~ scale house just northwest of the existing landfill. The <br />OtherI five are all east of the existing fill, along the east <br />edge .~f the proposed expansion. Six of the eight (all-but K-16 <br />~n~ l~-19) have narrow-diameter piezometers installed in them. <br /> <br /> Will be installing two additional monitoring wells, W-9 and <br /> W-~O,! required by the permit east of the landfill. They will <br /> i~st~ll another monitoring well, presumably to be named W-II, <br /> al.!on~ Highway 169 in the extreme northwest corner of the pro- <br /> per~. <br /> <br /> <br />
