Task 4.1 - Airport Safety Criteria Rule .1622 (1) states that a new MSWLF unit shall not be located closer than 5,000 feet from any airport runway used only by piston-powered aircraft and no closer than 10,000 feet from any airport runway used by turbine-powered aircraft. Owners/operators proposing to site a new MSWLF unit within a five-mile radius of any airport runway shall notify the affected airport and the Federal Aviation Administration prior to submitting the Site Study. CDM will contact the Federal Aviation Administration to verify that the proposed landfill is not within 5,000 feet of any airport runway used only by piston-powered aircraft, or 10,000 feet of any runway used by turbine-powered aircraft. CDM will also contact the FAA to detemfine ff there are any airport runways used by turbine- powered or piston-powered ak~aft located within a five-mile radius of the proposed sites. If there are any airports within five miles, CDM will notify the FAA and the affected airport as required. Task 4.2 - Floodplains Rule .1622 (2) states that new MSWLF units shall not be located in 100-year floodplains unless it can be demonstrated that the unit will not restrict the flow of the 100-year flood, reduce the temporary water storage capacity of the floodplain, or result in washout of solid waste so as to pose a hazard to human health and the environment. It is assumed that the Solid Waste Section will accept a copy of the FEMA (or similar) map covering the proposed landfill property as demonstration that the proposes site does not fall in a 100-year floodplain. This Amendment does not cover any other information that might be requested by the Solid Waste Section to demonstrate compliance with the floodplain restriction, nor any additional work if a FEMA or similar map does not exist for the area of the landfill. Task 4.3 - Wetlands Rule .1622 (3)(a) states that new MSWLF units and lateral expansions shall not be located in wetlands unless the proper permits and demonstrations can be made. CDM will contact at ' least two f'mns and solicit proposals for completing a wetland delineation on the Option A and B sites. CDM will review the proposals with County staff who will choose the preferred proposal. The work will include scheduling a visit by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to review and approve the delineation, surveying of all of the wetland flags, and the preparation of a wetlands delineation survey/map. An allocation has been made in Section 4 of this Amendment to cover the cost of retaining a wetlands subconsultant. The actual cost will be passed through to the County with no additional markup. The cost will not exceed the allowance without prior written approval by the County. Once the delineation has been approved in the field, CDM will submit it to the U.S. gamy Corps of Engineers for approval. This Amendment does not include the preparation or Page 10 of 18
