Hydrogeologic study of the landfill expansion in Montgomery County, North Carolina
Abstract
A hydrogeologic exploration of the Montgomery County, North Carolina, landfill property was conducted. site soils were characterized in terms of hydrology, stratigraphy, engineering parameters, and general suitability for landfill liner or daily cover material. In addition, a search of available literature was made to relate regional geologic characteristics to the hydrologic regime at the site. The initial scope of this study included hydrogeologic modelling of a hypothetical contaminant plume. During the course of my research, however, the fact became apparent that insufficient information was available to conduct a meaningful analysis.
