University of Massachusetts, Columbia Point Campus, Boston/Landfill Gas Migration Control

The University of Massachusetts, Columbia Point Campus, was under construction in 1970 when it was discovered that the entire site was underlain by a former municipal landfill, dating back to the early 1900's. After Mr. Nosanov met with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and University's agencies, the project management consultant and the representatives of the five architectural/engineering teams, his employer firm was selected and Mr. Nosanov was made project manager.

The campus includes a peripheral road, an underground utilities building, which provides heat and air conditioning, and four major structures, including one that is 94-feet high.

Mr. Nosanov directed in situ investigations and landfill gas testing, criteria development, engineered details, construction safety, technical observation. As work proceeded, an old Coke production plant was discovered and an extensive piling relocation was required. The landfill gas migration control hardware included liner, landfill gas piping, an infra-red sensor and relay system which activated electrically operated valves and blowers, permanent monitoring facilities and an operations and maintenance manual. The hardware was integrated into the otherwise normal construction. The facility has been safely occupied since 1974.

E-2

City of Mountain View (California) Golf Course Landfill Gas Extraction and Flares and Condensate Control System

Mr. Nosanov was Chief Civil Engineer and Project Manager for Design of the subject landfill, performed the structural design of the flare station and designed the condensate control fields. Project design was completed in 1988.

The subject landfill had been closed, capped and was used as a municipal golf course. Design included surveying so as to minimize low points in the gas collection lines requiring condensate traps. Mr. Nosanov and a design engineer performed the fieldwork and personally reviewed and approved locations of all wells, lines and traps. A flare station to which landfill gas is now piped from three sources replaced an existing flare station, which burned off landfill gas. The flare station was allocated space partly atop the landfill; the geologic substrata are bay mud. Mr. Nosanov designed the concrete block walls, foundation slab, grade beams, and piling supports. The structure was designed to support three flares, two of which were to be 60 feet high. During and after Loma-Prietta earthquake, there was no damage to the structure and no services were interrupted.

E-3

Parlier Road Landfill/Fresno County, California/Polluted Groundwater Extraction System

Mr. Nosanov was Project Manager and engineer of record for the design of the subject system (circa 1982). Down gradient wells had previously been made unusable by the chemicals monitored therein, TCE, PCE, and others.

The remediation system is comprised of low flow extraction wells, spaced at 50 feet on center, extending into the plume of pollution and extracting water at the down gradient side of the landfill. Water is pumped through a surge tank and a treatment facility, and then is discharged into a channel. Design parameters included determination of groundwater depths, transmissivity, physical contents of the pollutants, hydraulic characterization of the total system and a draw down configuration at the groundwater table.

The system was constructed in phases accompanied by monitoring in wells, which were included in the design. All reports to date indicate that the system is successful.

E-4
Coyote Canyon Landfill Leachate Extraction System

The Coyote Canyon Landfill Leachate Extraction System was constructed in 1987 by M&A Constructors, Inc., a companion firm of Mandeville & Associates. The work was performed, under Mr. Nosanov's direction, for the Orange County Waste Management Division; it included eight extraction wells, monitoring and piezometer wells, electrical controls, sumps, pumps, and a 40-feet high earthen embankment to support four 10,000-gallon retention tanks on concrete foundations.

The entire pumping operation is fully automated. The well screens were engineered to be of very fine mesh (0.010 inches). Pumps were deep-well submersible Gould pumps. Electrical controls include Coyote, Franklin, and multiple operating float switches, which respond to liquid levels in the wells, the detention sump, and the retention tanks. Orange County personnel detent the tanks manually. The liquid is returned to and sprinkled atop the Coyote Canyon Landfill.





E-5

West Contra Costa County Sanitary Landfill/Landfill Gas Extraction System; Design and Construct for Richmond Sanitary Services

Mr. Nosanov was Chief Civil Engineer of Mandeville & Associates and General Manager of its affiliate, M&A Constructors for design and construction of the subject system, circa 1986 and 1987.

The landfill was operating at the time of construction, some of which was performed during the winter. Landfill gas extraction wells, lateral piping to collection piping and outfall piping was installed in phases to meet landfilling operational constraints. Design of well and piping details proceeded in accordance with field decisions on design and phasing; phasing was subject to approval by the client's field superintendent. The landfill had previously accepted hospital and asbestos waste, which influenced design and procedures.

Gas was piped to a flare, also designed by Mandeville & Associates, and installed under Mr. Nosanov's direct supervision. Leachate was collected in blow pots and piped to a Baker-type collection tank disposal by pump-out and off-site haul.

The system was installed on time and on budget; the budget had been prepared prior to execution of the agreement to proceed.

E-6
Smithtown Landfill Gas Extraction and Recovery System/Long Island, New York; Design and Construction (Turnkey)


Pacific Lighting Energy Services (PLES), now known as Pacific Energy, which did business with Mandeville & Associates and M&A Constructors, owned Smithtown Landfill. Mr. Nosanov was Vice President of both, Chief Civil Engineer of the former, and General Manager of the latter.

In 1986, M&A Constructors negotiated and was awarded the contract based on a predetermined estimate (fixed fee).

The work included an evaluation of the gas field production, and extraction well and piping design and construction, and construction safety procedures. Design and construction parameters included high early differential settlement, climatic conditions and early immature landfill gas production. The landfill has been capped recently.

Work was completed on time and budget; the landfill then was sold by PLES to another firm. Mr. Nosanov met with the president of that firm in 1991 and was advised that the Smithtown Landfill Gas Facility is one of their most productive (financially) facilities.

E-7
Burbank Landfill Debris Basin Liner

In 1987 the City of Burbank, after receipt of a fixed price, retained Mandeville & Associates and its companion company, M & A Constructors to prepare drawings and specifications, obtain all agency approvals, and construct a drainage and liner system for a debris basin at the Burbank Landfill. The landfill contained and received municipal waste. Work was completed on time and under budget. The City had completed 80 percent of grading. Liner on the 2:1 side lopes was PVC and vented so as not to trap landfill gas being generated beneath it. Above the bottom of the lower layer of PVC was a double layer of piping connected to a monitoring well. The piping was overlain by low-density polyethylene above that was a protective layer of earth.

A roadway to the bottom, sloped at 5:1 included a HDPE net and sandbags for stability.
