VersaCap is a low-cost, intermediate landfill cover solution designed to help prevent erosion, infiltration,runoff and gas emission during the operational phases of the landfill.Fast and easy to install, VersaCap is a wind-resistant membrane comprised of a synthetic turf andspecially-formulated polymer backing that improves the quality of surface water runoff and eliminatesany downstream siltation, preventing erosion of the cover soils. VersaCap does not require tires orsandbags to keep it in place and can easily be taken up and reused in future areas.HydroTurf is an economical, environmentally-friendly alternative covering to rock riprap and piped channels.It is composed of a durable synthetic turf with a high friction geomembrane which are locked into place witha specially formulated pozzolan ballast infill. Made exclusively for bench drains, down drains and downchutestructures on landfill covers, HydroTurf works like a flexible concrete providing superior hydraulic performancehandlingvery high sheer forces created by large velocity and large volume flows.Delivering the same advantages as <strong>ClosureTurf</strong>, HydroTurf offers rapid, low impact installation that’s significantlyless costly than hard armor and piping, and is proven to last more than 100 years when properly maintained.Best of all, unlike hard armor riprap channels, HydroTurf leaves cleaner runoff water so it’s better for theenvironment.The nature of the <strong>ClosureTurf</strong> system provides an excellent opportunity for generating environmentally friendlyrenewable energy through the implementation of solar panel arrays. <strong>ClosureTurf</strong>’s geosynthetic cover enablespanels to operate in a clean environment with a very low amount of dust and dirt. The engineered turf providesan excellent surface for easy access and eliminates the risk of panel damage from mowing and frequentwashing required for other types of ground cover.And, the exceptionally durable heavy load bearing <strong>ClosureTurf</strong> platform enables complete accessibilityfor installation, maintenance and replacement of PV panels. A positive energy source that benefits landfilloperators as well as the entire community, solar panel arrays result in a practical post-closure use ofexpansive landfill acreage
