                                     EXECUTIVE SUMMARY


        The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is currently developing a rule addressing non-
municipal facilities (industrial waste facilities, including construction and demolition waste landfills) that
may receive hazardous wastes from conditionally exempt small quantity generators (CESQGs), or
generators of less than 100 kilograms per month of hazardous waste.  This report, prepared in support of
EPA's rulemaking, presents information on construction and demolition (C&D) waste landfills, i.e.,
landfills that receive materials generated from the construction or destruction of structures such as
buildings, roads, and bridges. C&D waste landfills are being examined because the Agency believes that
the largest potential impact from this rulemaking will be on these facilities.

BACKGROUND

        The 1984 Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) to the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA) required EPA to revise the existing standards and guidelines governing the
management of household hazardous wastes and hazardous wastes from small quantity generators.  EPA
responded in 1991 by revising the existing criteria for solid waste disposal facilities and practices (40 CFR
Part 257). In 1991 EPA issued revised criteria in 40 CFR Part 258 for municipal solid waste landfills
(MSWLFs) that receive household hazardous wastes and CESQG wastes.  EPA did not  establish revised
criteria for non-municipal facilities and subsequently was sued by the Sierra Cub.  A consent agreement
was reached in January 1994, and EPA is now fulfilling the remainder of the HSWA mandate by regulating
non-municipal facilities that may receive CESQG wastes.  The final rule must be signed by the EPA
Administrator by May 15,1995. The rule will require facilities receiving CESQG wastes to have adequate
ground-water monitoring, corrective action requirements, and location restrictions.

COMPOSITION OF C&D WASTE

        Information on the composition of C&D waste is  presented below. Most of this information was
compiled from the  literature  by the National Association of Demolition Contractors (NADC); a small
number of other readily available sources were used as well. These source documents provide only
snapshots of the C&D waste  stream in specific locations and at specific points (e.g., generation) rather
than providing a complete cradle-to-grave picture of C&D wastes nationwide, or of the portion landfilled.

        C&D waste is generated from the construction, renovation, repair, and demolition of structures
such as residential and commercial buildings, roads, and bridges. The composition of C&D waste varies
for these different activities and structures.  Overall, C&D waste is composed mainly of wood products,
asphalt, drywall, and masonry; other components often present in significant quantities include metals,
plastics, earth, shingles, insulation, and paper and cardboard.

        C&D debris also contains wastes that may be hazardous.  The source documents identify a number
of wastes that are referred to using such terms as "hazardous," "excluded," "unacceptable," "problem,"
"potentially toxic," or "illegal." It is not necessarily true that all of these wastes meet the definition of
"hazardous" under Subtitle C of RCRA, but they provide an indication of the types of hazardous wastes
that may be present in the C&D waste stream.  They can be divided into  four categories:

        •      Excess materials used in construction, and their containers. Examples: adhesives and
               adhesive containers, leftover paint and paint containers, excess roofing cement and roofing
               cement cans;
                               *** February 7, 1995 Draft Report ••*                           ES-1

-------
        •       Waste oils, grease, and fluids. Examples: machinery lubricants, brake fluid, form oil, engine
               oil;

        •       Other discrete items.  Examples: batteries, fluorescent bulbs, appliances; and

        •       Inseparable constituents of bulk items. Examples: formaldehyde present in carpet, treated or
               coated wood.

Some of these components are excluded from C&D landfills by state regulations.

C&D LANDFILL LEACHATE QUALITY

        Construction and demolition landfill leachate sampling data were collected from states and from
the general literature by NADC. Leachate sampling data for 305 parameters sampled for at one or more
of 21 C&D landfills were compiled into a database.

        Of the 305 parameters sampled for, 93 were detected at least once. The highest detected
concentrations of these parameters were compared to regulatory or health-based "benchmarks," or concern
levels, identified for each parameter.  Safe Drinking Water Act Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) or
Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels (SMCLs) were used as the benchmarks if available.  Otherwise,
health-based benchmarks for a leachate ingestion scenario were identified; these were either reference
doses (RfDs) for non-carcinogens, or 10"6 risk-specific doses (RSDs) for carcinogens.  Benchmarks were
unavailable for many parameters because they have not been studied sufficiently.

        Of the 93 parameters detected in C&D landfill leachate, 24 had at least one measured value above
the regulatory or  health-based benchmark.1  For each of the parameters exceeding benchmarks (except
pH), the median leachate concentration was calculated and compared to its benchmark.  The median value
was  first calculated among the samples taken at each landfill, and then across all landfills at which the
parameter was detected. Due to anomalies and inconsistencies among the sampling equipment used at
different times and at different landfills, non-detects were not considered in determining median  values;
i.e., the non-detects were discarded before calculating both individual landfill concentration medians and
medians across landfills. Thus,  the median leachate concentrations represent the median among the
detected values, rather than the median among all values. The median concentration among all values
would in most cases have been lower than those calculated here.

        Based on (1) the number of landfills at which the benchmark was exceeded and  (2)  a comparison
between the median detected  concentration and the benchmark, seven constituents emerge as being
potentially problematic.  They are listed in the table below. Also shown are the number of landfills at
which the constituent was sampled, the number of landfills at which  the constituent was  detected, the
number of landfills at which the constituent was detected above its benchmark,  and the ratio of the median
detected concentration to the benchmark.

        For three of the seven parameters listed in the table (iron, manganese,  and TDS), the benchmarks
are secondary MCLs (SMCLs), which are set to protect water supplies for aesthetic reasons (e.g., taste)
rather than for health-based reasons.  None of the remaining four parameters exceeds its benchmark by a
factor of 10 or more, indicating that concentrations in ground water where monitoring wells or drinking
water wells may be located are likely to fall below  the health-based benchmarks.
    1In the case of pH, the "exceedances" were actually pH values below the regulatory range.

        Conclusions regarding C&D landfill leachate quality must be viewed with an understanding of the
data limitations.  The most important limitation is that the 21 landfills represented in this report comprise
just over one percent of the approximately 1,800 C&D landfills in the United States. Thus, the
representativeness of the sample is questionable.  Other limitations are discussed in the body of the report.

STATE REGULATIONS

        State statutes and regulations for C&D landfills were summarized, and similarities and differences
between current state requirements for C&D landfills and federal requirements for MSWLFs were
evaluated. The following summarizes the key findings:

        •      All states regulate off-site C&D landfills to some extent Thirteen states require off-site
               C&D landfills to meet state MSWLF requirements (in many states, these requirements are
               not as stringent as the federal MSWLF requirements  found in 40  CFR Part 258), while
               the remaining 37 have developed separate regulations that are specific to off-site C&D
               landfills.2

        •      Only seven states exempt on-site C&D landfills from regulatory requirements. Of the
               remaining 43 states, 11 require on-site C&D  landfills  to meet state sanitary landfill
               requirements (in many states, these requirements are not as stringent as 40 CFR Pan
               258), 8 have developed separate regulations applicable to only on-site  landfills, and the
               remaining 24 have extended the regulations for off-site landfills to on-site landfills.

        •      Sixteen states mandate location restrictions,  ground-water monitoring, and corrective
               action for off-site C&D landfills. These requirements, however, vary in stringency relative
               to 40 CFR Pan 258.  For example, only two states have location restrictions, ground-
    2Ohio expects to have specific C&D management requirements effective by the end of 1995.

                               *** February 7,1995 Draft Report ***                           ES-3

-------
                water monitoring, and corrective action requirements for off-site C&D landfills that are
                at least as stringent as 40 CFR Part 258.

                The most common 40 CFR Part 258 location restrictions that states apply to C&D
                landfills relate to: airports and bird hazards, wetlands, and floodplains. Several states
                have moved beyond federal requirements and prohibit the siting of on-site (eight states)
                and off-site (nine states) C&D landfills in floodplains. Fewer states have adopted the 40
                CFR Part 258 requirements regarding faults, seismic zones, and unstable areas.

                A majority of states impose additional location restrictions on C&D  landfills. The most
                common additional restrictions are: near ground and surface waters, and near endangered
                species habitats.

                Twenty-nine states (nearly 60 percent) require off-site C&D landfills to monitor ground
                water.  Of these 29 states, 5 have requirements substantially similar to 40 CFR Pan 258,
                while 24 have requirements that are less stringent.3 The remaining 21 states do not
                require ground-water monitoring requirements. Of these 21, however, 12 "may" require
                ground-water monitoring if the regulatory authority deems it necessary.

                Twenty-four states (nearly 50 percent)  require on-site C&D landfills to monitor ground
                water.  Of these 24, only 4 have requirements substantially similar to 40 CFR Part 258,
                while 20 have requirements that are less stringent  The remaining 26 states do  not
                require ground-water monitoring.  Of these 26, 9 states "may" require ground-water
                monitoring if the regulatory authority deems it necessary.

                Twenty-two states have corrective action requirements for off-site C&D landfills.  These
                states either require the permit applicant to submit a corrective action plan with the
                permit application, or require the facility owner/operator to submit a plan after a  release
                to ground water is detected.

                Sixteen states have corrective action requirements for on-site C&D landfills. Again,  these
                states either require the permit applicant to submit a corrective action plan with the
                permit application, or require the facility owner/operator to submit a plan after a  release
                to ground water is detected.

                States also have mandated permit,  design and operating, post-closure, and financial
                assurance requirements for both on-site and off-site C&D landfills.  The most common of
                these is permitting requirements. Respectively, 45 and 38 states require off-site and on-
                site C&D  landfills to obtain a permit   Thirty-four states require some post-closure time
                period  for off-site landfills (11  require at least 30 years and 23 require less than 30 years).
                Additionally, 33 states require off-site C&D landfills to obtain financial assurance for
                closure, while 32 require it for post-closure care.

                Twenty-four states prohibit all hazardous wastes from disposal at off-site C&D landfills.
                In addition, three and four states require that only inert waste and C&D waste be
    3Ohio currently does not have ground-water monitoring, but monitoring is expected to be pan of C&D
management regulations that should be finalized by the end of 1995.

    4Ohio requires a permit for C&D landfills.

disposed, respectively.  Fourteen states do not specifically prohibit disposal of all
hazardous wastes at off-site C&D landfills.  In general, the regulations for these states
note that only waste specified in permit may be accepted, or only "regulated" or
"controlled" hazardous waste is prohibited.  Finally, five states do not specifically identify
any restrictions on waste disposal at off-site C&D landfills.

                                        INTRODUCTION


       This report presents information on construction and demolition (C&D) waste landfills.  These
are landfills that receive materials generated predominantly from the construction or destruction  of
structures such as buildings, roads, and bridges. There are currently over 1,800 C&D waste landfills
operating in the United States.

       This report was written in support of a rulemaking currently being developed by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).  This chapter provides a background discussion of this
rulemaking, and then discusses the purpose and organization of this report.

REGULATORY BACKGROUND

       The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), passed in 1976, required the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to promulgate standards and guidelines for the management of
solid wastes. In response to this mandate,  EPA promulgated regulations for the management of hazardous
wastes under Subtitle C of RCRA, and for non-hazardous wastes under Subtitle D. The Subtitle C
standards applied to all facilities generating more than 1,000 kg/mo of hazardous wastes, but conditionally
exempted from full regulation facilities generating less than this amount. Subtitle D guidelines address the
management of all other solid wastes, such as municipal wastes and non-hazardous industrial wastes
(including construction and demolition wastes).

       In 1984, Congress passed the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA), which  made
several changes to RCRA  One important change was the creation of two categories of small quantity
hazardous waste generators: generators of 100 to 1,000 kg/mo, and generators of less than  100 kg/mo.
HSWA added specific provisions for the first category, but gave EPA discretion as to whether to
promulgate new requirements for the second.  EPA has since defined generators of less than 100 kg/mo as
conditionally-exempt small quantity generators, or CESQGs. CESQGs are responsible for the proper
management of their wastes, but are not required to comply with many of the Subtitle C regulations
specified  for larger hazardous waste generators.

       Another important change imposed by HSWA was the addition of Section 4010 to Subtitle D,
requiring EPA to promulgate revised criteria addressing the management of household hazardous wastes
and hazardous wastes from small quantity generators.  EPA responded in October 1991 by promulgating
the revised Municipal Solid Waste Landfill (MSWLF) Criteria (40 CFR Part 258).  This partially fulfilled
the HSWA mandate by addressing household hazardous wastes and CESQG wastes that are disposed in
MSWLFs. After a consent agreement with the Sierra Club on January 28,1994, EPA is now fulfilling the
remainder of the HSWA mandate by regulating CESQG wastes that are disposed in non-municipal
facilities.  The final rule must be signed by the EPA Administrator by May 15,1995.  The rule will require
non-municipal facilities receiving CESQG wastes to have adequate ground-water monitoring, corrective
action requirements, and location restrictions.

FOCUS ON  C&D LANDFILLS

       CESQGs currently send their wastes to many different types of Subtitle D waste management units
other than MSWLFs, including the following:

       •       Commercial Subtitle D industrial waste landfills;


                               *** February 7,1995 Draft Report •»*                           1-1

-------
        •      On-site Subtitle D industrial waste management units such as landfills, surface
               impoundments, land treatment units, and waste piles; and

        •      C&D waste landfills.

        EPA believes that the only waste management units that may be impacted significantly by this
rulemaking are the C&D landfills.  The Agency believes that most of the 10 to 20 commercial Subtitle D
industrial waste landfills in existence today already have adequate ground-water monitoring, corrective
action requirements, and location restrictions. EPA also believes that CESQGs currently disposing of
their wastes in on-site Subtitle D waste management units will simply start sending the hazardous portion
of their waste stream off site, at relatively low cost.

        On the other hand, the rulemaking will have an impact on C&D landfills. C&D landfills are
therefore the focus of this report.

SCOPE AND ORGANIZATION OF THIS REPORT

        This report examines C&D waste characteristics, C&D landfill leachate quality, and state
regulations addressing C&D waste management facilities.

        •      Chapter 2 discusses the composition of C&D wastes, including any hazardous materials or
               constituents that are found;

               Chapter 3 presents information on the quality of C&D landfill leachate, based on
               sampling data taken from landfills around the country; and

        •      Chapter 4 presents a detailed summary of state regulations pertaining to C&D facilities.
               It identifies states that have regulations related to ground-water monitoring; corrective
               action; location restrictions; and facility design, operation, closure, andA>r post closure
               care; and provides the specifics of those requirements.

The first two chapters are based predominantly on information supplied to EPA by the National
Association of Demolition Contractors (NADC), supplemented with a small number of other readily
available studies.  The chapter on state regulations is based on original research performed for this report.

              CHARACTERISTICS OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTES


       This chapter presents information on the composition and characteristics of the C&D waste
stream based on four source documents:

               The National Association of Demolition Contractors's (NADCs)  C&D Waste
               Characterization Database: Volume 1 - Compilation of Report Excerpts (1994);

       •       NADCs C&D Waste Characterization Database: Volume 1 - Compilation of Articles
               (1994);

       •       Hawaiian's Construction and Demolition Debns Disposal Issues: An Alachua  County
               Perspective (1994); and

       •       Lambert and Domizio's Construction and Demolition Waste Disposal: Management
               Problems and Alternative Solutions  (1993).

       The source documents provide only snapshots of the C&D waste stream in specific locations (e.g.,
Vermont) and at specific points (e.g., at generation) rather than providing a complete cradle-to-grave
picture of the nationwide C&D waste stream, or of the portion that is landfilled.  This report reflects that
segmented characterization of the waste stream and includes waste characterization information based on
generated wastes.  In some areas, a large portion of the complete C&D waste stream may be  recycled,
burned, left on site,  or illegally disposed (Apotheker, 1990; Piasecki et al., 1990; Spencer, 1991; Lambert
and Domizio, 1993;  McGregor et al., 1993); thus, the characterizations presented in this report may be
somewhat different from those of the landfilled portion of the waste stream.  In Vermont, for example,
only about one-third of the waste stream went to landfills in 1989 (Spencer, 1991).

       The first section of this chapter discusses factors that influence C&D waste composition and
characteristics. The second section provides information on components and their proportions in the
C&D waste stream.  The final section focuses specifically on the components and constituents of C&D
waste that the source documents characterize using the terms "hazardous," "excluded," "contaminants,"
"chemical constituents that could affect the use of the waste as fuel," "special," "unacceptable," "problem,"
"potentially toxic," "nonhazardous restrictive," or "illegal." Throughout this chapter these components are
referred to as "problematic."  These "problematic" wastes are not necessarily wastes that are classified as
hazardous under RCRA Subtitle C

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE C&D WASTE COMPOSITION

       C&D wastes are categorized in a variety of ways, and each category produces wastes with different
composition and characteristics.  For example, road C&D waste differs from bridge waste, which differs
from building waste.  Whereas road C&D generates large quantities of just a few different waste items
(mainly asphalt and  concrete), building C&D generates many different waste items in smaller amounts
(with wood as the largest single item).  Within the  category of building C&D waste, the size and type of
the building (e.g., an apartment building versus a single-family house) affects the composition of the  waste.
Even for one  building type (e.g., a single-family house), the waste generated depends on the activity
conducted (i.e., new construction, renovation, or demolition).  For example, construction generally
produces "clean," unaltered, and separate waste items (e.g., unpainted wood, new concrete) (MVC, 1992).
                                 *** May 4, 1995 Draft Report ••*                               2-1

In contrast, demolition wastes may include more items that have been altered or mixed (e.g., wood painted
with lead-based paint, concrete with hazardous waste spilled on it) (MVC, 1992).

        Thus, three main factors affect the characteristics of C&D waste (MVC, 1992):

        •       Structure type (e.g., residential, commercial, or industrial building, road, bridge);
        •       Structure size (e.g., low-rise, high-rise); and
        •       Activity being performed (e.g., construction, renovation, repair, demolition).

        Additional factors that influence the type and quantity of C&D waste produced include (MVC,
1992; McGregor et al., 1993):

        •       Size of the project as a whole (e.g., custom-built residence versus tract housing);
        •       Location of the project (e.g., waterfront versus inland, rural versus urban);
        •       Materials used in  construction (e.g., brick versus wood);
        •       Demolition practices  (e.g., manual versus mechanical);
        •       Schedule (e.g., rushed versus paced); and
        •       Contractors' "housekeeping" practices.

        Other factors do not affect the type  and quantity of C&D waste produced, but do affect the type
and quantity reported in the source documents and therefore in this report  These include:

        •       How state regulations define what is and is not acceptable as C&D waste;
        •       Where in the waste stream the C&D waste is measured (e.g., generation point, recycling
                station, landfill); and
        •       How the C&D waste  is measured (e.g., by volume or weight).

        The next section provides  information on the components of C&D waste and their proportions  in
the waste stream.

COMPONENTS OF C&D WASTE

        Overall, C&D waste streams are comprised mainly of wood products, asphalt, drywall (gypsum)5,
and masonry (e.g., concrete, bricks). Other notable components include metals, plastics, earth, shingles,
and insulation. In one county, waste identified by the source document as "hazardous" has been estimated
to comprise 0.4 percent of construction waste by weight (Triangle J Council of Governments, 1993)6; this
is discussed further in the final section of this chapter. Table 2-1 provides a complete list of components
of C&D wastes mentioned in the source documents.  The bold print denotes the "problematic"
components, i.e., components that  the source documents refer to as "hazardous," "excluded,"
"contaminants," "chemical constituents that could affect the use of the waste as fuel," "special,"
"unacceptable," "problem," "potentially toxic," "nonhazardous restrictive," or "illegal."

        In  general, wood comprises one-quarter to one-third of the C&D waste stream.  Other
generalizations are hard to make because (1) different studies address different segments of the nation's
    5    Drywall is excluded from some C&D landfills because anaerobic breakdown of gypsum produces
        hydrogen sulfide.

    6    Hazardous waste percentage estimate is for the 1990 Orange County, North Carolina construction
        waste stream (SCS Engineers, 1991 as cited in Triangle J Council of Governments, 1993).

C&D waste stream (e.g., road and bridge waste may be excluded from some studies; information in another
study may be for waste from construction only or demolition only) and (2) C&D waste composition varies
greatly from one category to another.  The graphs and tables in this section provide examples of the
composition of portions of the C&D waste stream.  Note that they vary with location (e.g., Florida versus
Vermont) and category of waste (e.g.,  construction versus demolition). Viewed together, they provide a
good overall picture of the North American C&D waste stream, and show important differences among
different categories of C&D waste.

C&D Waste Including Road and Bridge Waste (Vermont)

        Figure 2-1 provides a picture of the composition of Vermont's complete C&D waste stream by
weight, based on a comprehensive C&D generation study. Asphalt comprises approximately one-half of
the waste stream, wood one-quarter, and concrete one-sixth (Cosper et al., 1993).

C&D Waste Excluding Road and Bridge Waste (Florida)

        Figure 2-2 provides an example of the composition by volume of the C&D waste stream received
at a C&D recycling facility in Florida.  Although the source document (Cosper et  al., 1993) states that the
facility accepts "the complete C/D waste stream," it appears that the facility receives the complete  building
C&D waste stream, but does not receive wood or bridge waste, because asphalt is  not listed as a
component of the waste.  Approximately one-third of the waste volume is wood (Cosper et al., 1993).
Drywall comprises one-sixth and paper and cardboard together comprise one-sixth of the total volume
(Cosper et al., 1993).

Construction-only Waste Versus Demolition-only Waste

        Approximately one-third of the construction waste volume in Toronto is wood, and masonry and
tile comprise less than one-sixth of  the construction waste (Figure 2-3) (THBA, 1991).  Demolition waste
is also comprised of approximately one-third wood (in the U.S.), but concrete  makes up over one-half of
demolition waste (Figure 2-4) (Chatterjee-U.S. Army as cited in SPARK, 1991).

C&D Waste by Housing Type

        Table 2-2 compares residential construction waste to commercial construction waste in the Twin
Cities, Minnesota.  Wood comprises one-fifth to one-third of the waste stream in both cases. Concrete,
brick, and steel waste are greater from commercial construction than from residential, as would be
expected.

COMPONENTS OF C&D WASTE  THAT ARE POTENTIALLY "PROBLEMATIC"

        Hazardous wastes comprise a small percentage of the C&D waste stream  (McGregor et al.,  1993),
and can potentially cause adverse effects to human health and ecosystems (Lambert and Domizio, 1993).
For example, inhalation of urea formaldehyde (a resin used in insulation and as a wood preservative) has
caused a health syndrome called "ultra-sensitive allergies" in demolition workers (Lambert and Domizio,
1993).  Creosote (a wood preservative) can potentially leach into ground water and discharge into surface
water, possibly adversely affecting drinking water or aquatic life if concentrations reach high enough levels
(Lambert and Domizio, 1993).

        This section describes the "problematic" components and constituents of C&D waste and, where
information was available (i.e., for treated and coated wood), the proportion of those constituents in the

waste item.  Table 2-3 lists "problematic" components and constituents of C&D waste.  These "problematic"
wastes are not necessarily wastes  that are classified as hazardous under RCRA Subtitle C.  Some may be
"problematic" simply because they are recyclable (e.g., cardboard) or because they are outside the definition
of C&D waste as defined by a particular jurisdiction (e.g., garbage).

        It is also important to note that wastes that some jurisdictions exclude from C&D landfills or recycling
centers are sometimes brought to the  C&D disposal areas nonetheless.  In  some cases these wastes are
detected and rejected (Cosper et  al., 1993; Lauer, 1993), but in other cases they may not be screened out
(Gates et al., 1993), and evidence  shows that they are found in C&D landfills (Piasecki et al., 1990).

        For discussion purposes, the "problematic" C&D wastes are divided into four categories:

        •      Excess hazardous  materials used in construction and their containers;

        •      Waste oils and greases  and other fluids from machinery;

        •      Other discrete items; and

        •      Incidental constituents that are inseparable from bulk C&D  wastes (e.g., wood treatment
               chemicals).

Excess Potentially Hazardous Materials

        Construction activities can produce excess "hazardous" materials and "empty" containers containing
small quantities of "hazardous" materials. (The source, McGregor et al., 1993, does not define "hazardous,"
so these wastes may or may not be defined as hazardous  under RCRA Subtitle C)  Adhesives and adhesive
containers, leftover paint and paint containers, and excess roofing cement and roofing cement cans are a few
examples. In some cases construction workers dump leftover paints or solvents on the ground (McGregor et
al., 1993).  Others may use sawdust, kitty litter, or masking tape to "dry" up empty paint cans and solvent
containers (McGregor et al., 1993).  "Hazardous" wastes may be disposed of in  a dumpster, left at the
construction site for a cleanup contractor, self-hauled to a landfill, or returned to the shop7 (McGregor et
al., 1993).  Table 2-4 characterizes the 46 pounds of wastes referred to as "hazardous" from  construction of
a typical 1,850 square-foot single-family residence in Portland, Oregon. Assuming that the total waste weight
produced by construction of some 1,810 square-foot houses  in  Oregon is typical, the 46 pounds would
comprise less than 1 percent by weight of the total construction waste (including recycled waste), and less than
10 percent of the landfilled waste.

Machinery Lubricants

        Waste oils, greases, and machine fluids are also generated by C&D activities. Examples include brake
fluid, form oil, and engine oil (McGregor et al., 1993).
        Based on a survey of twenty builders and subcontractors in Oregon, (many of whom are
        conditionally-exempt small quantity generators (CESQGs)), some CESQGs want more
        information on how and where to dispose of small quantities of hazardous wastes (McGregor et
        al., 1993).

Other Discrete Items

        Other discrete items may be problematic for a variety of reasons and may be excluded from C&D
landfills by state or county regulations.  Batteries and fluorescent light bulbs may be excluded because they
contain heavy metals (lead and mercury, respectively). Other items, such as cardboard, may be excluded
because they are recyclable. As noted above, supposedly "excluded" items are found at C&D landfills, although
some items are spotted and rejected during visual inspections (Cosper et al., 1993; Lauer, 1993; Piasecki et
al., 1990).

Inseparable Constituents of Bulk Items

        Many C&D wastes contain inseparable hazardous constituents. Examples include carpeting that can
leach formaldehyde and  treated or coated wood and wood products.  Extensive information is available on
wood treatments and coatings and their constituents.  Wood products may leach hazardous constituents into
ground water or release  them into the air during landfill fires.  In some states, fire suppression capabilities
are not required at C&D landfills, and C&D landfill fires have occurred in a number of states (Connelly et
al., 1991 as cited in Hanrahan, 1994). Table 2-5 provides the information available from the source documents
on the concentrations of some of the "problematic" constituents found in wood products. The  proportion of
the chemical constituent  to  the wood product ranges from less  than  10 parts  per million (ppm)  for
pentachlorophenol in pallets and skids, to 20 percent for creosote in railroad ties, utility poles, pilings, and
docks.

SUMMARY

        As noted  earlier, this report characterizes segments of the C&D waste stream based on information
provided in the source documents. Much information on the waste composition is based on generated C&D
wastes, which may differ from the composition of landfilled C&D wastes. Additionally, various factors affect
the characteristics of C&D waste that were reported, including structure type and size, and the activity being
performed.

Lead level is highly dependent on the age of the paint; before 1950 lead comprised as much as 50% of the
paint film. Legislation in 1976 reduced standard to 0.06% by weight.
Plywood may be surface-coated with fire retardants, preservatives and insecticides, or pressure-treated with

May be sealed with polyurethane or other sealant to prevent offgassing of formaldehyde.
Dominant wood preservative; actual levels will be lower due to evaporation or leaching after treatment.
Restricted use due to industry change and concern over dioxm linkage; not permitted for residential uses.
Losses after treatment estimated to be 20-50% over 10-25 years; not recommended for residential use.
        Overall, C&D waste streams are comprised mainly of wood products, asphalt, drywall, and
masonry.  Other notable components include metals, plastics, earth, shingles, and insulation.  Most of the
source documents did not provide information on the percentage of C&D waste that is "hazardous."
Those that did indicated that "hazardous" waste comprised a small percentage of the total C&D waste
stream (e.g., 0.4 percent of construction waste in one county in North Carolina).  The source documents
did not define "hazardous" or other "problematic" wastes as wastes that are classified as hazardous under
RCRA Subtitle C.

        The source documents did note that although C&D wastes have traditionally been considered inert
and harmless, they have become an issue of concern in the 1990s.  This is largely because some C&D
wastes that were previously considered harmless are now considered to be "toxic" or to contain "hazardous"
materials, such as wood that is coated with lead paint (Piasecki et al., 1990; Lambert and Domizio, 1993).
"Problematic" wastes  cited by three or more of the reports or articles in the source documents are:
adhesives, caulk, paint, wood preservatives, formaldehyde resins, stains and varnishes, appliances, batteries,
mercury-containing switches and lights, PCB-containing transformers and capacitors. Again, these
"problematic" wastes  may or may not qualify as hazardous wastes under RCRA Subtitle C. More attention
has also focused on C&D landfills because they may be used  to dump hazardous wastes illegally (Piasecki
et al., 1990; Lambert and Domizio,  1993).

                                 LEACHATE QUALITY ANALYSIS

       This chapter summarizes available information on construction and demolition (CAD) debris
landfill leachate. The methodology is discussed first, followed by the results of the analysis.

METHODOLOGY

       This analysis is based on construction and demolition debris landfill leachate sampling data
presented in two documents assembled by Gershman, Brickner & Bratton, Inc. (GBB) for the National
Association of Demolition Contractors (NADC).  One document, "C&D Waste Landfills, Leachate Quality
Data, Volume 1, Specific State-by-State Responses," presents the results of GBB's efforts to obtain
leachate data from state officials. The second document, "C&D Waste Landfills, Leachate Quality Data,
Volume 2, Copies of Reports, Articles, and Other Related Data," is a compilation of several reports
germane  to C&D landfill leachate quality.

       In addition to  the information compiled by NADC, other studies  of C&D debris landfill leachate
have been performed.  Selected studies are reviewed, and the results compared to this study, in Attachment
3-A.

       The methodology for using NADCs data as a basis for characterizing C&D landfill leachate
quality comprised the following steps:

       •      Selecting C&D landfills to include in the analysis;

       •      Developing a C&D landfill leachate database;

       •      Compiling parameter-specific regulatory and health-based "benchmarks" to use as a basis
               for screening potential risks;

       •      Screening out parameters that were never detected in C&D landfill leachate, or that never
               exceeded the benchmark;

       •      Calculating median values (using only detected values) for each parameter detected at a
               concentration above the benchmark; and

       •      Calculating the ratio of the parameters' median concentrations to the benchmarks.

Each step is discussed below.

Selecting C&D Landfills

       The two reports prepared for NADC  by GBB present leachate sampling data for numerous
landfills in many states. While much of the information is landfill-specific, some is presented in different
formats such as average parameter concentrations across landfills in a given state, or as ranges of
concentrations across groups of landfills.  To develop the leachate database for this report, only landfill-
specific sampling data were used. Thus, this report is based on leachate sampling data for 21 C&D
landfills,  listed in Table 3-1. For ease in reviewing the database in Attachment 3-B, the abbreviated
database  code for each landfill is also presented in Table 3-1.

Developing a C&D Landfill Leachate Database

       Leachate sampling data for the 21 landfills were entered into a database, Attachment 3-B. The
database contains sampling data for a total of 305 parameters analyzed for at least once.  A blank entry in
the database indicates that the parameter was not sampled for at that landfill.  In many cases, a parameter
was sampled for but not detected at a landfill. Non-detects were handled in one of two ways:

       •      If a detection limit (say, "X") was given by GBB, "
-------
        •      If no detection limit was given, "ND" was entered in the database.

        As data were taken from many different landfills (and thus many different sampling laboratories),
there were cases in which different names were used to address the same parameter. The differing
nomenclatures used by different landfills were reconciled so that all synonyms were joined into one
parameter row. In addition, some samples were identified as "total" and others as "dissolved." To be
conservative, the "total" values were entered into the database.

Compiling Regulatory and Health-based Benchmarks

        The next step was to identify parameter-specific benchmarks, or concern levels, to use as a basis
for determining whether the parameter concentrations in leachate are high enough to pose potential risk.
Safe Drinking Water Act National Primary and Secondary Drinking Water Standards were used  as the
benchmarks if these were available; these are referred to in the remainder of this report as Maximum
Contaminant Levels (MCLs) or Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels (SMCLs).8  Both are
enforceable drinking water standards. While MCLs are health-based, SMCLs are based on other factors
such as aesthetics.  Both MCLs and SMCLs are also based on the availability of treatment technologies
and other factors such as availability of data and analytical methods.

        For parameters without MCLs or SMCLs, health-based benchmarks for a leachate ingestion
scenario were compiled as follows:

        •      Reference doses (RfDs) were compiled for non-carcinogens.  EPA calculates RfDs by
               dividing animal toxicity values by suitable scaling or uncertainty and modifying factors.
               The RfDs used in this study were taken from EPA's Integrated Risk Information System
               (IRIS) or Health Effects Assessment Summary Tables (HEAST).  The RfDs (mg/kg-day)
               were then converted to benchmark concentrations in drinking water using EPA's standard
               exposure assumptions (daily intake of two liters per day,  average body weight of 70 kg, and
               exposure duration of 365 days per year over 70 years).

        •      Risk-specific doses (RSDs) were calculated for carcinogens based on cancer slope factors
               (CSFs).  A CSF is a measure of the carcinogenic potency of low doses of carcinogens.
               CSFs represent the upper-bound confidence limit estimate of the excess cancer risk for
               individuals experiencing a given exposure over a lifetime. EPA calculates CSFs  from dose-
               response curves, which are based on human epidemiological and/or animal bioassay data.
               For this study, CSFs given in IRIS or HEAST were used, and the standard exposure
               assumptions listed above, to calculate the drinking water concentration that would
               correspond to an excess lifetime cancer risk of 10~*.

Many of the parameters  detected in C&D landfill leachate have not been studied sufficiently to allow an
RfD or a CSF to be developed.  For these parameters, no benchmarks were available for this study.

Screening Out Parameters

       In this step, the  maximum observed value of each parameter was simply compared to its regulatory
or health-based benchmark. Parameters that were never observed in C&D landfill leachate at levels above
their respective benchmarks were screened out, the rationale being that if the undiluted leachate is "safe  to
   8Where available, existing MCLs or SMCLs were used; otherwise, proposed values were used.

                                   *** February 7,1995 Draft Report ***                         3-3

drink," no further analysis is needed. Also excluded from further consideration were parameters that were
sampled for but never detected in landfill leachate.

Calculating Median Leachate Concentrations

        For each parameter with at least one exceedance over the benchmark, the median leachate
concentration was calculated across all landfills at which the parameter was sampled.  Medians, rather than
averages, were calculated in order to reduce the effect of single, anomalous values.

        When calculating the median value for each parameter, the median value for each landfill was first
calculated, and then the median value across all landfills was calculated.  For example, if parameter X was
sampled once at Landfill A, once at Landfill  B, and six times or at six locations at Landfill C, the median
concentration was calculated based on the Landfill A sample, the Landfill B sample, and the median
among the Landfill C samples.  Thus, each landfill is represented only once for each parameter, and each
landfill is weighted equally.

        Due to anomalies and inconsistencies among the sampling equipment used at different times and
at different landfills, non-detects were not considered in determining median values.  In other words, for
those parameters for which a median was calculated, the non-detects were discarded before calculating
both individual landfill concentration medians and medians across all landfills. Thus, the median leachate
concentrations calculated for this analysis represent the median among the detected values, rather than the
median among all values.  The median concentration among all values would in most cases have been
lower than those calculated here.

Comparing Medians to Benchmarks

        The median value for each parameter was then compared to the benchmark for that parameter, if
one was available.  The results are expressed  as the ratio of the median  leachate concentration  to the
benchmark.

RESULTS

        As discussed above, the leachate database contains sampling data for 305 parameters analyzed for
at one or more of 21 construction and demolition landfills. Of these 305 parameters, 93 were detected at
least once.  The other 212 parameters, almost all organics, were never detected, and are listed  in Table 3-2;
many of them were sampled for at only one or two landfills, and often only once or twice at those sites.

        All 93 parameters that were detected at least once are listed in  Table 3-3, along with the number
of landfills at which the parameter was sampled, the number of landfills at which the  parameter was
detected, the maximum and minimum values  for each parameter (here, including non-detects), and the
relevant benchmark, if available. Maximum concentrations above the benchmark are shaded.  For pH, the
minimum pH level below the benchmark range is shaded.

       Table 3-4 focuses on the parameters  whose maximum concentrations exceeded their benchmarks
(i.e., the parameters shaded in Table 3-3).  For each parameter, Table 3-4 repeats the number of landfills
at which  the parameter was sampled and detected, but also shows the number of landfills at which the
benchmark was exceeded.  Table 3-4 also provides the median value of each parameter across all  landfills,
each parameter's benchmark, and the ratio of the medians to benchmarks.  Again, due to anomalies and
inconsistencies among sampling equipment, non-detects were not considered in determining median values.

       The results are discussed below.

Organics

       The frequency of detection of organics was generally low compared to metals and conventional
parameters.  Of the 34 organics listed in Table 3-3, only 8 were detected at half or more of the landfills at
which they were sampled: acetone, benzole acid, cis-1,2-dichloroethane, ethylbenzene, 4-methylphenol,
phenol, 2,4,5-T, and xylenes.  Six organics exceeded their respective benchmarks at least once, including
acetone, alpha-BHC, 1,2-dichloroethane, dieldrin, methylene chloride, and trichloroethene.

       Of the six organic constituents found above their benchmarks, Table 3-4 shows that four (acetone,
alpha-BHC, dieldrin, and trichloroethene) were detected above their benchmarks at only one landfill.
While this is noteworthy, these constituents are not subject to further assessment here because their
exceedances cannot be considered representative.

       The median leachate concentrations (among the detected values) of both of the remaining
constituents -- 1,2-dichloroethane and methylene chloride - exceed their benchmarks.  Neither of them
exceeds its benchmark by a factor of 10 or more, however.  Assuming that a 100-fold reduction in
concentration is achieved between the leachate and a downgradient drinking water well (as would be likely,
based on the dilution attenuation factor [DAF] of 100 developed for the Toxicity Characteristic
rulemaking), the concentrations would fall well below the benchmarks at  the point of exposure.  Even if a
smaller DAF of 10 is applied (as may be applicable at a monitoring well located closer to the  landfill),
neither constituent would exceed its benchmark. Again, these medians only account for detected values.
Had the non-detects been included, the median concentrations of all but one of the organics would have
been in the non-detect range.

Inorganics

       Most of the inorganics listed in Table 3-3  were detected at half or more of the landfills at which
they were sampled: aluminum, arsenic, barium, boron, cadmium,  chromium, copper, cyanide, iron, lead,
magnesium, nickel, potassium, vanadium, and zinc. The 11 constituents exceeding their benchmarks
included aluminum, arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, cyanide, iron, lead, mercury, nickel, and zinc.

       As shown in Table 3-4, seven inorganics were  detected above their benchmarks at more than one
landfill: arsenic, cadmium, chromium, cyanide, iron, lead, and nickel. The median leachate concentrations
exceed the benchmarks for only three of these inorganics, however: cadmium, iron, and lead.  None of the
median leachate concentrations exceeds its benchmark by a factor of 100 or more, and iron is  the only
constituent whose median exceeds its benchmark by a  factor greater than 10.  Iron was detected  at all 20
landfills at which it was sampled, and was detected above its benchmark at least once at 19 of them.
Excluding the few non-detects, the median concentration of iron in leachate is 37 times higher than its
drinking water standard, which is a secondary MCL based on taste.

Conventional Parameters

       As would be expected, all of the conventional parameters were detected at most,  and  often all, of
the sites at which they were analyzed.  The conventional parameters with maximum concentrations
exceeding their respective benchmarks included chlorides, fluoride, manganese, nitrate, sulfates, and total
dissolved solids (TDS).  Only chlorides, manganese, sulfates, and TDS  exceeded their benchmarks at more
than one landfill. Of these four parameters, only  manganese and TDS have medians above the benchmark.
The median level of manganese exceeds its SMCL (by 59 times), while the median level of TDS exceeds  its
SMCL by over three times. In addition to these parameters, more than one landfill had a measured pH
value outside of the range of the SMCL for pH.

SUMMARY

        Leachate sampling data for 305 parameters sampled for at one or more of 21 C&D landfills were
compiled into a database, shown in Attachment 3-B.  Of these 305 parameters, 93 were detected at least
once. Almost all of the 212 parameters that were never detected were organics; most of the inorganic and
conventional parameters sampled for were detected one or more times.

        Of the 93 parameters detected in C&D landfill leachate, 24 had at least one measured value above
the regulatory or health-based benchmark.9  For each of the parameters exceeding benchmarks (except
pH), the median leachate concentration was calculated and compared to its benchmark.  Due  to anomalies
and inconsistencies among the sampling equipment used at different times and at different landfills, non-
detects were not considered in determining median values. Thus, the median leachate concentrations
represent the medians among the detected values, rather than the median among  all values. The median
concentrations among all values would in most cases  have been lower than those  calculated here.

        Based on (1) the number of landfills at which the benchmark was exceeded and (2) a  comparison
between the median detected  concentration and the benchmark, seven parameters emerge as being
potentially problematic. The  list of these seven parameters, shown below, was developed by eliminating
from the original list of 24 parameters (1) any parameter that was detected at only one landfill (this was
determined to be not representative) and (2) any parameter whose median leachate concentration did not
exceed its  benchmark.

        organics

        •       1,2-dichloroethane
        •       methylene chloride

        inorganics

        •       cadmium
        •       iron
        •       lead

        conventional parameters

        •       manganese
        •       total dissolved solids (TDS)

        For three of the seven parameters listed above (iron, manganese, and TDS), the benchmarks are
secondary MCLs (SMCLs), which are set to protect water supplies for aesthetic reasons (e.g.,  taste) rather
than for health-based reasons. None of the remaining four parameters exceeds its benchmark by a factor
of 10 or more, indicating that concentrations in ground water where ground-water monitoring or drinking
water wells may be located are likely to fall below the health-based benchmarks.

CAVEATS AND  LIMITATIONS

        All conclusions made from the data presented in this report should be tempered by the following
weaknesses in the samples used  to calculate some of  the leachate characteristics:
    9In the case of pH, the "exceedances" were actually pH values below the regulatory range.

                                   ••• February 7, 1995 Draft Report •**                       3-10

-------
First, the sample size is much smaller than the universe of C&D landfills nationwide.  The
21 landfills represented in this report comprise just over one percent of the approximately
1,800 C&D landfills in the United States. Thus, the representativeness of the sample is
questionable.

Many of the parameters discussed in this report were only sampled at one or two landfills,
and such data cannot be considered representative of 1,800 landfills.

The medians calculated in this report do not account for non-detects. Although the
medians would be more meaningful if the non-detects could he factored in, this report
attempts to capture the impact of the non-detects by presenting both the frequency of
detection and the frequency of detection above benchmarks.

Some landfills do not characterize (or give an incomplete characterization of) the waste at
their sites.  Thus, in some cases, the respondents' assertions that their landfills are
comprised of C&D wastes is tbe only basis for including the landfill in the database.

The data relied upon were assembled recently by only one organization, using limited data
gathering techniques.

                        OTHER STUDIES OF C&D LANDFILL LEACHATE

        This attachment summarizes the results of selected studies of C&D landfill leachate and compares
them to the results of the analysis presented in Chapter 3 of this report (rhe "NADC/ICF analysis").

THE WMX REPORT

        This section compares the results of the NADC/ICF analysis  with those of the 1993 Construction
and Demolition (C&D) Landfill Leachate Characterization Study published by WMX Technologies,
Incorporated (the "WMX report"). The WMX report evaluated leachate from four landfills (in Kentucky,
Michigan, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin) for all or  part of a three-year period (1991 to 1993).10
Samples from the four landfills were analyzed for 219 organics, 19 inorganics, and 13 conventional
parameters.11  The NADC/ICF analysis evaluated 21 landfills, including the 1991  results from WMX's
Kentucky, Michigan, and Massachusetts landfills. Because the NADC/ICF analysis was based on data
compiled from various studies, there were significant differences in the parameters sampled for at the 21
landfills. In total, the NADC/ICF analysis covered 242 organics, 26 inorganics, and 37 conventional
parameters.12

        As the remainder of this section will show,  the results of the NADC/ICF analysis and the WMX
report are quite similar.  Below, the two studies are compared in terms of the following factors:

        •       The number and percent of parameters detected;

        •       Parameters  detected  at concentrations exceeding regulatory and/or health-based
               benchmarks; and

        •       Parameters  that are potentially problematic (i.e., detected at more than one landfill and
               have median leachate concentrations above a benchmark).

This information is summarized in Table 3A-1 and discussed in the remaining sections.

Organics

        In both the NADC/ICF and WMX reports, the percent of organics detected in C&D leachate was
low compared to inorganics and conventional parameters.  In the NADC/ICF analysis, 14 percent of the
organics sampled for were detected (34 out of 242), compared to 15 percent (33 of 219) in  the WMX
report.
    10 Results from an Ohio landfill sampled in 1991 and included in an earlier WMX report were
discarded because WMX later discovered that steel mill slag had been used in the leachate collection
system and had contaminated the leachate.

    11 Although iron was categorized as a conventional parameter by the WMX report, it is counted here
as an inorganic parameter to be consistent with the NADC/ICF analysis.

    12 This includes some double-counting of parameters because similar parameters were reported
differently in different studies.  For example, nitrate and nitrite were reported separately in one study but
together in another study, so the ICF analysis counts three separate categories: nitrate, nitrite, and
nitrate/nitrite.

a   Parameters in bold exceeded human health-based benchmarks (MCLs, RfDs, RSDs, or action levels); unbolded parameters exceeded aesthetic-based
    benchmarks (SMCLs).
b   "Potentially problematic" parameters are those (1) detected at more than one landfill and (2) with median leachate concentrations above a benchmark.
    Median leachate concentrations are calculated based on detected values only.
c   Here we include iron as an inorganic, although WMX had categorized iron as a conventional parameter.

-------
        The maximum concentrations of six organics exceeded benchmarks in the NADC/ICF analysis.
Those six organics plus an additional two [di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate and disulfoton] were exceeded in the
WMX Report.  The maximum leachate concentration of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate was five times its MCL,
and disulfoton was found at levels six times its RfD. In both reports, all of the benchmarks exceeded by
organics were based on human health (i.e., primary MCLs, action levels, reference  concentrations, or 10"6
risk-specific concentrations for carcinogens) rather than aesthetics.

        In the NADC/ICF analysis, parameters were considered "potentially problematic" if they were (1)
detected at more than one landfill and (2) had median leachate concentrations above a benchmark (with
the median concentrations calculated based on detected values only). Using these  criteria, organics that
are potentially problematic in each study, and the ratios of their median leachate concentrations to their
benchmarks, are shown in Table 3A-1.  The list is somewhat longer for the WMX  study, but the
magnitude of the exceedances (one ratio is greater than 10 but none is greater than 100) are similar.

Inorganics

        Both the absolute number and the percentage of inorganics detected were higher in the
NADC/ICF analysis  (88 percent; 23 out of 26) than in the WMX report (58 percent; 11 out of 19).  Three
inorganics (cadmium, iron, and lead) had maximum concentrations above benchmarks in both reports.
The NADC/ICF analysis  found an additional eight parameters above their benchmarks, some of which are
health-based and some of which are based on aesthetics.

        Inorganic constituents that are potentially problematic for the two studies are similar: iron and
lead for both studies, plus cadmium only for the NADC/ICF study. Overall, the ratios of the median
leachate concentrations to the benchmarks for the inorganic constituents are similar.

Conventional Parameters

        In both reports, all of the conventional parameters sampled for were detected, with the single
exception of total settled solids (sampled for in the NADC/ICF analysis). The maximum concentrations of
three  parameters (chlorides, sulfates, and TDS) exceeded benchmarks in both reports (benchmarks are all
SMCLs), with an additional  four exceeding benchmarks in the NADC/ICF analysis only (only one, nitrate,
has a  health-based benchmark).

        The only potentially problematic conventional parameter common to both studies is TDS, whose
median  leachate concentration exceeds its SMCL by a  factor of 4 in both studies.  The other two
constituents are manganese  (NADC/ICF study only) and sulfates (WMX study only).  The benchmarks  for
all three parameters are SMCLs, and the median leachate concentrations are less than 100 times the
benchmark for all three constituents.

including (1) eight summaries of various studies provided in the WMX report, and (2) two other reports.

        Much of the information on leachate from C&D landfills provided in these summaries and reports
is already covered in the NADC/ICF analysis presented in  Chapter 3.  Information that was not covered in
the NADC/ICF analysis is generally consistent with the findings presented in Chapter 3:

        •       C&D landfill leachate in Pennsylvania exceeded SMCLs for iron, manganese, sulfates, and
               TDS (study summarized in WMX report).

        •       The Spencer Landfill in Maryland measured pH levels as low as 4.96, which is well outside
               of the SMCL range of 6.5 to 8.5 (study summarized in WMX Report).

               Connelly et al. (1991, as cited in WMX  report) analyzed the leachate quality of two
               landfills in Wisconsin (Barrett Landfill and Mad-Prairie Landfill). Chloride and iron
               concentrations exceeded SMCLs.

The parameters that exceeded benchmarks above (chloride, iron, pH, manganese, sulfates, and TDS) also
exceeded benchmarks in the NADC/ICF analysis.

                                           CHAPTER 4
                          STATE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR
                        CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION LANDFILLS
        In a 1992 study, EPA estimated that approximately 1.800 off-site C&D landfill facilities were in
operation across the SO states.1  In another study conducted in 1994, EPA estimated that the number of C&D
landfills in operation nationwide approximated 2,775.  This estimate included, however, approximately 930 C&D
landfills in the State of Georgia alone.  The State includes in this figure a substantial number of on-site landfills
used solely for the disposal of construction and land-clearing debris generated in the construction of new homes
Discounting the  Georgia estimate leaves approximately 1,845 C&D landfills in operation, or nearly the same
number estimated in the 1992 study.2  Both estimates compare to the approximate 5,000 or more permitted
MSWLFs.

        Another source of disposal for C&D waste is in on-site facilities.  Typically, these sites are used only
for the disposal of C&D waste generated at that site and are closed following completion of the activity.
Because these sites are on  privately-owned land and receive only waste generated at that site, little data exists on
the number of these facilities nationwide. In fact, in EPA's 1994 study only one other state aside from Georgia
could estimate the number of on-site landfills in that state. That number was one landfill.3

        This chapter summarizes existing state statutes and regulations for C&D landfills. Specifically, the
chapter focuses on similarities and differences between current state requirements for C&D landfills and Federal
requirements for MSWLFs found at 40 CFR Part 258.  This comparison enables EPA to gauge whether existing
state requirements for C&D landfills are sufficient to protect  human health and the environment.

        To summarize existing state requirements, EPA gathered information on the most recent state C&D
landfill requirements from  state solid waste statutes and regulations presented in publications by The Bureau of
National Affairs, Inc.4  EPA summarized these state requirements vis-a-vis their relationship to 40 CFR Pan
258. In summarizing, EPA differentiated between the requirements for on-site and off-site facilities, respectively.
The first section of this chapter provides an overview of state regulatory classification schemes for C&D
landfills. The second, third, and fourth sections, respectively compare state location standards, ground-water
monitoring requirements, and corrective action requirements for C&D landfills with the requirements found at 40
CFR Part 258.  The final section briefly discusses other requirements, such as permits and financial assurance,
that states may have for C&D landfills.


OVERVIEW OF STATE REGULATORY SCHEMES FOR C&D LANDFILLS

        States use a variety of schemes to classify  and subsequently regulate C&D landfills.  A breakdown of
the schemes the  50 states use for both on-site and off-site C&D landfills is found  in Attachment 4-A. These
schemes can  be  divided into the following four categories:
    1 "Construction Waste and Demolition Debris Recycling ... A Primer," Gershman, Brickner and Bratton, Inc.,
October 1993.

    2  "List of Industrial Waste Landfills and Construction & Demolition Waste Landfills," EPA/OSW, September
1994.

    3  Ibid.

    4 Ohio has a definition for construction and demolition debris and a requirement for a C&D debris disposal
facility license. However, the State currently does not have regulations for C&D debris management and permitting
requirements but expects regulations to be finalized by the end of 1995.

-------
        •       States that require all C&D landfills to meet state sanitary landfill requirements. A total
                of 11 states currently require both on-site and off-site C&D landfills to meet state sanitary
                landfill requirements or requirements that are substantially similar to state sanitary landfill
                requirements.  These states are:  Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Massachusetts,
                Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Oklahoma, and Rhode Island.  State sanitary landfill
                requirements are not always as stringent as the requirements in 40 CFR Pan 258.

        •       States that regulate all  C&D landfills as a landfill unit separate from sanitary landfills. A
                total of 24 states currently have separate, specific requirements for all C&D landfills, regardless
                of where sited.  These states' requirements may also vary depending on the size  of the landfill,
                the type of waste received, etc. These variations are identified in Attachment 4-A.  These
                states are:  Alabama, Arkansas, California,  Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas,
                Maryland,  Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Ohio5,
                South Carolina,  South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and
                Wyoming.

        •       States with separate requirements for on-site and off-site C&D landfills.  In  addition to the
                24 states that regulate all C&D landfills as a landfill unit separate from sanitary  landfills, eight
                states have defined further separate requirements applicable to on-site and off-site C&D
                landfills.  These states are:  Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
                Tennessee, and West Virginia.

        •       States that exempt on-site  C&D landfills from regulation.  A total of seven states exempt all
                on-site C&D landfills from regulatory requirements.  These states are: Colorado, Hawaii,
                Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oregon, and Utah.  Five of these states have specific
                requirements for off-site  facilities, while two currently require off-site facilities to meet state
                sanitary landfill  requirements.

        The following three sections discuss specific state requirements regarding location restrictions, ground-
water monitoring, and corrective action in comparison to 40 CFR Pan 258. Overall, 16 states  have requirements
for off-site C&D landfills in all three of these categories. These states are as follows:

        •       California                •        Connecticut
        •       Delaware                •        Georgia
        •       Illinois                  •        Kentucky
        •       Michigan                •        Nevada
        •       New Jersey              •        New Mexico
        •       New York               •        Pennsylvania
        •       Rhode Island             •        Virginia
        •       West Virginia            •        Wisconsin

        Most of these states' requirements, however, are less stringent than 40 CFR Pan 258. For example,
many of these states require ground-water monitoring, but not the same frequency or parameters identified in 40
CFR Pan 258.  Additionally, many of these states  do not list all of the six specific location restrictions found at
40 CFR Pan 258.  Two of these states, however, have requirements in all three categories for off-site C&D
landfills that are at least as stringent as 40 CFR Pan 258.  These states are Michigan and Nevada. Thus, relative
to 40 CFR Pan 258, these states have all  six  specified location restrictions, the same or more stringent ground-
water monitoring frequencies and parameters, and the same or more stringent corrective action requirements.
    5 Ohio expects to have specific C&D management requirements effective by the end of 1995.

LOCATION STANDARDS
        This section compares state location standards for C&D landfills to 40 CFR Part 258 and identifies
other, common restrictions states may require.

Comparison of State Requirements to EPA's MSWLF Requirements

        EPA's MSWLF regulations (40 CFR Pan 2S8) place restrictions on facilities located in or near the
following six areas:  airports, floodplains, wetlands, faults, seismic impact zones, and unstable areas.  The
specific  language relating to these six areas is found in Table 4-1.

        This section highlights similarities and differences between current, mandatory state C&D landfill
location  restrictions and the Federal restrictions for MSWLFs. Table 4-1  indicates the number of states with
mandatory C&D landfill restrictions that  are substantially similar to or more stringent than 40 CFR Pan 258
(e.g., some states prohibit C&D landfills  in floodplains altogether, while Federal requirements only require  that
special consideration be given to not restricting flood flows)6. The number of states is divided into
requirements for on-site and off-site C&D landfills.

                                             TABLE 4-1
                      States That Currently Have Location  Restrictions Similar to
                               or More Stringent than 40 CFR Part 258
40 CFR Part 258 Requirement
Facilities located within 1) 10,000 feet of any airport runway end used by
turbojet aircraft, or 2) 5,000 feet of any airport runway end used only by piston-
type aircraft must demonstrate that the facility does not pose a bird hazard to
aircraft New facilities within a five-mile radius of any airport runway used by
turbojet or piston-type aircraft must notify the airport and the FAA.
FacUities located in 100-year floodplains must not restrict 100-year flood flow,
reduce the temporary water storage capacity of the floodplain, or result in solid
waste washout that poses a hazard to human health or the environment
Facilities may not be located in wetlands, unless they successfully make several
demonstrations to the Director of an approved state.
Facilities are banned within 200 feet of faults mat have experienced
displacement since the Holocene Epoch. Facilities in approved states may
receive variance from mis restriction.
In approved states, facilities may be located in a seismic impact zone if they are
designed to resist the maximum horizontal acceleration in Unified material for
the site
Landfills located in unstable areas must demonstrate mat engineering measures
have been incorporated into the unit's design to ensure that the integrity of the
structural components (e.g., liners, ieachate collection systems, final cover
systems, run-on/run-off systems) will not be disrupted.

-------
        Table 4-1 reveals a high degree of consistency between state C&D landfill location restrictions and
Federal MSWLF location restrictions regarding airports, floodplains, and wetlands. This same level of
consistency, however, does not apply to faults, seismic impact zones, and unstable areas.  In general, although
states may not include mandatory restrictions in their regulations, permit writers may incorporate them in facility
permits.  This chapter evaluates only requirements listed in statutes or regulations.

Other State Location Requirements

        In addition to the location restrictions specified in 40 CFR Part 258, numerous states list other
mandatory location restrictions for on-site and off-site C&D landfills. Examples of these additional requirements
and the number of states requiring them include:

        •       Restrictions near ground and/or surface waters (18);
        •       Restrictions near habitats of endangered  or threatened  species (5);
        •       Restrictions near historically or archaeologically significant areas (4);
        •       Restrictions near residences (4); and
        •       Restrictions near Federal or state parks (3).

Other location criteria mentioned less frequently include restrictions within certain distances from schools,
hospitals and highways, as well as prohibitions on sites near shoreland or over natural resources.


GROUND-WATER MONITORING REQUIREMENTS

        The level of ground-water monitoring required at C&D landfills varies significantly from state to state.
State ground-water monitoring requirements can be grouped into the following four  categories:

        •       States without ground-water monitoring requirements. This category includes states that
                either specifically exempt C&D landfills from ground-water monitoring requirements or do not
                reference such a requirement in the regulations.

        •       States that "may" require ground-water monitoring. This category encompasses states that
                "may" require ground-water monitoring, usually at the regulatory authority's discretion, based
                on a review of the submitted site, facility design, and facility operation plans.  If ground-water
                monitoring is required, the regulations reference ground-water monitoring requirements for
                other classes of landfills or indicate that procedures are to be incorporated into the permit.

        •       States with ground-water monitoring requirements that are less stringent than 40 CFR
                Part 258. This category includes states that require ground-water monitoring in all cases;
                however, the requirements are less stringent than those found in 40 CFR Part 258. For
                example, monitoring frequency and the number of parameters to be monitored may be reduced,
                or only  background monitoring is required, while assessment monitoring may be required at the
                regulatory authority's determination.  This category also includes:  (1) states that require
                monitoring, but determine the frequency, procedures,  and parameters based on a review of the
                permit application; and (2) states that may grant variances from mandatory monitoring  based on
                site-specific characteristics.

        •       States with ground-water monitoring  requirements that are substantially similar to 40
                CFR  Part 258.  This category encompasses states that adopt, by reference, EPA's ground-
                water monitoring requirements for MSWLFs, and states that although  not specifically
                referencing 40 CFR Part 258, have similar requirements for frequencies, procedures (mandatory
                background and assessment monitoring), and parameters.

        Of the four categories of requirements, most states require ground-water monitoring that is less stringent
than 40 CFR Part 258 (20 states have this requirement for on-site facilities, while 24 states have it for off-site
facilities). Only four and five states have ground-water monitoring requirements for on-site and off-site C&D
landfills, respectively, that are substantially similar to 40 CFR Part 258. Each of these categories is discussed in
greater detail below.

        Seventeen states do not require ground-water
monitoring for on-site C&D landfills.  Additionally,
nine of the 17 states also do not require ground-water
monitoring for their off-site C&D landfills. Again,
these states' regulations either specifically exempt
these facilities from ground-water monitoring
requirements, or do not reference such requirements.

States  That "May" Require Ground-Water
Monitoring

        Several states  also do not mandate ground-
water monitoring at C&D landfills. Rather, these
states permit the regulatory agency to require ground-
water monitoring at its discretion.  Generally, the
permit  applicant submits information related to the site
and facility, which the  regulatory agency reviews.  Should the agency require ground-water monitoring based on
the review, either the regulations reference monitoring requirements or, in most cases, the agency specifies the
                                                             Both On-Site and Off-She C&D Landfills

States With Ground-Water Monitoring
Requirements That Are Less Stringent Than 40
CFR Part 258

        Forty percent of the states (20) mandate
ground-water monitoring for both on-site and off-site
C&D landfills7.  An additional four states mandate
ground-water monitoring for off-site C&D landfills
only. Each of these state's ground-water monitoring
requirements are less stringent than EPA's requirements for MSWLFs found at 40 CFR Part 258. For the most
pan, these states have developed their own requirements relating to frequency, parameters to be tested, and types
of monitoring (i.e., background and/or assessment monitoring). These requirements differ significantly from state
to state.  Attachment 4-B details the requirements.  The following is 'a summary of these requirements:

                their regulations procedures
                detailing their background
                monitoring requirements. In
                general, states determine these

Assessment Monitoring. All of
the states, with the exception of
Virginia, do not detail assessment
monitoring procedures in their
regulations.  Typically, the
regulatory authority determines the
procedures for assessment
monitoring, such as frequency and
parameters to be tested, following
the detection of a parameter above the background level.

Background Frequency of Monitoring.  For those states providing details in their regulations,
ten require quarterly monitoring at least in the first year (two require less frequent monitoring
in succeeding years). Three states require background monitoring at least semi-annually, while
one state requires it annually.  Another state requires some parameters to be monitored
quarterly and others annually. Six states allow the regulatory authority to determine the
frequency of background ground-water monitoring.
     Ohio currently does not have ground-water monitoring but monitoring is expected to be a requirement when
C&D management regulations are finalized by the end of 1995.

        •       Background Parameters. Fifteen states list in their regulations background parameters to be
                tested.  The number of parameters to be tested vary from state to state.  In general, states
                require that owners/operators monitor for several of the metals and volatile organic compounds
                (VOCs) found in Appendix I of 40 CFR Part 258.  In addition, the states require that

States With Mandatory Requirements Substantially Similar to 40 CFR Part 258

        Some states that require C&D landfill <• to monitor ground water either adopt the 40 CFR Pan 258
rec Jirement? by reference, or have their own requirements that are substantially similar to 40 CFR Pan 258, i.e.,
bo'.r. background and assessment monitoring procedures are listed and the parameters to be tested include most if
not all of the parameters listed in 40 CFR Pan 258 Appendices I and n.

        In particular, four states require both on-site and off-site C&D landfills to monitor ground water
according  to the procedures identified in 40 CFR Par. 258. These states include:
                Michigan
                New Hampshire
Nevada
Rhode Island
In addition, one state, West Virginia, requires that only off-site C&D landfills to monitor ground water according
to the procedures identified in 40 CFR Pan 258.


CORRECTIVE ACTION REQUIREMENTS

        In addition to the ground-water monitoring requirements discussed above, 40 CFR Pan 258 also requires
MSWLFs to perform corrective action activities if contamination is detected by monitoring procedures.  Within
90 days of finding ground-water contamination at a MSWLF, the owner/operator of said facility must initiate an
assessment of corrective action measures ((40 CFR 258.56(a)).

        Presently, 16 states have corrective action measures for both on-site and off-site C&D landfills. In
addition to these states, six states require corrective action measures for then- off-site C&D landfills only. These
states take one of three approaches to corrective action:

        •      A corrective action plan must be submitted with the permit application.  This plan probably
               discusses steps to be taken following a release.

-------
                The facility owner/operator must
                develop a corrective action plan
                following a release to ground water
                and submit it to the regulatory
                authority for approval.

                The regulatory authority may
                require the facility owner/operator
                to undertake corrective action
                measures as necessary,  typically
                following the regulatory authority's
                review of submitted ground-water
                monitoring data.

Table 4-3 indicates the following:

        Permits. A majority of states require both on-site and off-site C&D landfills to obtain a
        facility permit (38 states require permits for on-site landfills, while 45 require permits for off-
        site landfills). Twenty percent of states (nine) do not require on-site facilities to obtain a
        permit nor do these states permit these facilities by rule.

•       Final Cover. The most common mandated design and operating requirement is the
        requirement that facilities provide at least 24 inches of final cover material.  Thirty-eight states
        mandate this requirement for off-site C&D landfills, while an additional six  states mandate final
        cover of less than 24 inches.  Twenty-nine states mandate 24 inches of final cover for on-site
        facilities, while  seven  mandate less than 24 inches.

•       Daily Cover. Nineteen states require off-site facilities to provide at least six inches of cover
        on  a daily basis while the facility is in operation.  An  additional 26 states require off-site
        landfills to provide cover, at some time period less frequent than daily (e.g., weekly, monthly,
        semi-annually).  Fourteen states require on-site facilities to provide at least six inches of cover
        on  a daily basis, while 24 additional states require cover less frequently than daily.

-------
            Liners9.  Twenty-two states require a liner for off-site C&D landfills.  Fifteen of these 22
            states also extend these liner requirements to on-site C&D landfills.  The type of material
            required for off-site facilities is as follows:

                     Ten states require a soil/clay liner.  Five of these states require a hydraulic
                     conductivity of 1 x 10"7, two require 1 x 10"6, two require 1 x 10 , and two do not
                     specify a hydraulic conductivity maximum.

                     Five states require a composite liner. Two states require a hydraulic conductivity of 1
                     x 10~7, one state requires 1 x 10"6, and the remaining two do not specify a hydraulic
                     conductivity maximum.

                     Seven states review liner requirements on a case-by-case basis, typically allowing the
                     owner/operator to select a liner with state approval based on site-specific
                     characteristics.

            For the IS states requiring liners for on-site landfills:

                     Five require a soil/clay liner;

                     Four require a composite liner; and

                     Six  review liner requirements on a case-by-case basis.

            Leachate Collection Systems. Eighteen and 13 states require some form of leachate collection
            system for off-site and on-site C&D landfills, respectively.

            Post-Closure Period. In sum, 34 states require some time  period for post-closure care for off-
            site facilities. Of these 34 states,  11 require  that the post-closure period be at least 30 years,
            while 23 require a period of less than 30 years, typically five years or less. Twenty-eight states
            require some time period for post-closure care for on-site facilities:  ten require at least 30
            years,  while  18 require less than  30 years.

            Financial Assurance. With regard to financial assurance, over 60 percent of states require
            some form of financial assurance for both closure and post-closure for off-site facilities.  Nearly
            one-half of the states require financial assurance for on-site facilities.  Finally,  IS states require
            financial assurance for corrective action for off-site C&D landfills, while  11  do for on-site
            facilities.

            Waste Restrictions10.  Twenty-four states specifically state in their regulations that aU
            hazardous wastes are prohibited from disposal at off-site C&D landfills. In addition, three and
            four states require that only inert and C&D waste, respectively,  be accepted for disposal at off-
            site C&D landfills. A total of 14 states do not specifically  prohibit all hazardous waste from
            disposal at C&D landfills.  For example, these states may prohibit only "regulated" or
            "controlled"  hazardous waste, or they may require that "only waste listed  in permit may be
            disposed." Finally, five states do not list any waste restrictions.  With regard to on-site C&D
            landfills, 16  prohibit disposal of all hazardous waste, three require that only inert waste be
            disposed, and four require that only C&D waste be disposed. Finally, 13 states do not
            specifically prohibit  all hazardous waste and 14 states do not list any waste restrictions for on-
            site C&D landfills.
  Attachment 4-C discusses liner requirements in greater detail.

         ATTACHMENT 4-B. STATE GROUND-WATER MONITORING REQUIREMENTS


       The exhibit below summarizes, for each state, the state's ground-water monitoring requirements for both
on-site and off-site C&D landfills. The categories are divided as follows:

       Category (1)     State has DO ground-water monitoring requirement.  This category includes states
                       that either specifically exempt C&D landfills from ground-water monitoring
                       requirements or do not reference such a requirement in the regulations for C&D
                       landfills

       Category (2)     State "may" require ground-water monitoring. This category encompasses states
                       that "may" require ground-water monitoring, usually at the regulatory authority's
                       discretion, based on a review of the submitted site, facility design, and facility
                       operation plans.  If ground-water monitoring is required, the regulations reference
                       ground-water monitoring requirements for other classes of landfills or indicate that
                       procedures are to be incorporated into the permit.

       Category (3)     State requires ground-water monitoring and the requirements are substantially
                       similar to 40 CFR Part 258. This category encompasses states that adopt, by
                       reference, EPA's ground-water monitoring requirements for MSWLFs.  This category
                       also encompasses states that do not specifically reference 40 CFR Pan 258, but have
                       similar requirements for frequencies, procedures (mandatory background and
                       assessment monitoring), and parameters, although not every parameter is similar to
                       those listed in 40 CFR  Pan 258.

       Category (4)     State requires ground-water monitoring, but the requirements are less stringent
                       than 40 CFR Part 258.  This category includes states that require ground-water
                       monitoring in any case. However, the state's requirements for ground-water
                       monitoring are not as stringent as those listed at 40 CFR Pan 258.  For example,
                       monitoring frequency may be less often, the parameters to be monitored may be fewer
                       in number, or only background monitoring is required and assessment monitoring may
                       be required at the determination of the regulatory authority. This category also
                       includes states that require ground-water monitoring, but determine the frequency,
                       procedures, and  parameters to be monitored based on a review of the permit
                       application. Also included are states that may grant  a variance for mandatory
                       monitoring to C&D landfills based on site-specific characteristics.

The frequencies and parameters for states classified as Category 4 (states with  mandatory ground-water

                        ATTACHMENT 4-C.  STATE LINER REQUIREMENTS


        Twenty-two states require their off-site C&D landfills to include a liner in the landfill's design. In
addition, IS of these states extend these requirements to on-site C&D landfills. The  liner requirements for these
states fall into three main categories:

        (1)     Soil/Clay. States  require a soil/clay liner material to be compacted to a certain depth.

        (2)     Composite.  States require a compacted soil/clay liner with a synthetic liner overlaying the
                earthen material.

        (3)     Site-specific.  States allow owner/operators to select a liner material from a list of materials
                specified in the regulations and approve or disapprove of this selection based on a case-by-case
                review of the site-specific characteristics.

The exhibit below lists those states  requiring liners for off-site landfills and  the material required.  States that
extend these requirements to on-site landfills are highlighted.


Descriptions of States With Site-Specific Requirements:

        •       Colorado requires that the engineer's report and operating report contain they type and quantity
                of material that the owner/operator proposes to use for the liner.

        •       Georgia requires owner/operator to submit proposed liner  from those specified in the State's
                "Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Liner Design System Criteria,  September 1991."

        •       Michigan requires C&D landfills to contain either a liner or a natural soil  barrier.  Liners can
                consist of:  1) compacted soil, 2) a composite design, 3) a flexible  membrane at least 30 mils
                thick,  or 4) other materials which possess demonstrated durability,  permeability and resistance
                to sunlight and chemicals. Natural soil barriers must  fulfill requirements for thickness and
                hydraulic conductivity which serve to impede the flow of leachate out of the fill  interior.  The
                choice of liner design appears to be at the discretion of the owner/operator.

        •       New Hampshire allows landfills accepting only C&D debris to use single liners. In landfills
                where waste characteristics cannot  be determined (or  where the waste poses a risk to ground
                water) double liners may be required.  Allowable liners either consist of recompacted soil or a
                geomembrane at least 60 mils thick.

        •       South Carolina's regulations do not specify the type or quantity of liner.

        •       South Dakota requires either soil liners or flexible membrane liners with a thickness of 30
                mils.  Liner configuration and components are determined on a case-by-case basis.

        •       Virginia C&D landfill liners may be made of: 1) compacted clay,  2) a flexible membrane at
                least 30 mils  thick, or 3) other clay/soils with similar thickness and hydraulic conductivity
                required for clay liners. Owners/operators seem to be able to choose which type of liner they
                wish to install.
