Closure and Postclosure Care Cost - Cabarrus County Landfill Facility <br />Federal and state laws and regulations require Cabarrus County to place a final cover on its landfill facility when <br />it stops accepting waste and to perform certain monitoring functions at the site for thirty years after closure. <br />Although closure and postclosure care costs are typically paid near or after the date that the landfill stops <br />accepting waste, the County reports an annual capital reserve operating expense as an estimate of these <br />closure and postclosure care costs. Actual Costs may be higher due to inflation, changes in technology, or <br />changes in regulations. The $3,573,272 reported as the landfill's closure and postclosure liability at June 30, <br />2011 represents a cumulative amount reported to -date. This amount is based on what it would cost to perform <br />all closure and postclosure care in Fiscal Year 2011. The change in the closure /postclosure liability from FY <br />2010 to FY 2011 resulted in a net decrease of $418,993. The decrease is due to the use of funds for the <br />closure of the C &D over MSW portion of the Landfill and annual monitoring expenses as required by the NC <br />Department of Natural Resources. <br />The County's liability is set aside for the closure and postclosure of the following: <br />• The Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) reached capacity in 1997 and was covered in 1998. <br />55 Attachment number 1 <br />1 -3 Page 177 <br />
