CALCIUM CARBONATE CAKE LANDFILL, SFAAP-041
SITE DESCRIPTION
The Calcium Carbonate Cake (CCC) Landfill is
located in the west central portion of SFAAP. It
measures approximately 350 by 315 feet and
was operated from May 1986 to June 1988.
Between May 1988 and December 1991, the
CCC was provided to farmers rather than
landfilled. This practice was discontinued in
December 1991. Initially, containerized CCC was
disposed of at this site, but later uncontainerized
CCC was deposited. The source of CCC was NQ
production. CCC is a byproduct of GN manufacturing,
which is an intermediate product of NQ.
A leachate collection system was installed in the
CCC Landfill at the time of construction. The
leachate in the collection system tank is reportedly
monitored. During a site visit in 1990 it was
noted that the landfill cap was cracked, vegetative
cover was sparse, and erosional features had
developed.
In 1998 the landfill cap was repaired and graded
to minimize erosion. Also, new ground cover
was established. All work was inspected and
accepted by KDHE representatives.
PROPOSED PLAN
Per KDHE’s requirement, one additional well will
be installed. LTM and landfill maintenance will
continue.
