SITE SUMMARY

1.0 SITE CONDITIONS

This section discusses the observed conditions on the Site, as defined as the Properties (Tax

Parcel Nos. 3543-43-8074, 3543-52-7357, 3543-52-6877, 3543-52-5955, 3543-53-4044, and

3543-53-3133) or any area where a hazardous substance or waste has been deposited, stored,

disposed of, placed, or otherwise come to be located. The Waste Disposal Area is defined as as

the estimated area of subsurface/surface waste regardless of the number of properties on which it

is located The boundary (perimeter) of this area is the observed limit of waste material based on

field observations and the inferred limit based on a review of historical aerial photographs. The

site visit was conducted on January 28, 2011. Photographs illustrating site conditions are

included in Appendix D.

The Site is located in Gaston County, near Gastonia, NC. Driving directions to the Site from the

intersection of Interstate 85 and US-321 are as follows:

1. Drive south on US 321 for about 5.2 miles.

2. Take a left onto Little Mountain Road and drive about 1.7 miles.

3. Turn right onto Forbes road and drive about 0.7 miles.

4. Take a right onto Genes Ridge Road. Falls Dump is located at the end of Genes Ridge

Road.

1.1 On-site Structures

Two mobile homes built on a crawl space and an enclosed shed built on a slab foundation are

located on the southeastern part of the Waste Disposal Area.

A mobile home built on a crawl space is located about 50 feet to the southeast of the Waste

Disposal Area boundary in an apparent down-gradient direction. Four mobile homes built on

Falls Dump

5

crawl spaces are located within 50 feet of the northeastern Waste Disposal Area boundary in an

apparent up-gradient direction.

1.2 Current Site Usage

According to Ms. Jean Parker, property owner, the southeastern part of the Site is used for

residential purposes and the northwestern part of the Site is not used. Mobile homes were

observed during the site visit.

1.3 On-Site Water Supply Wells and Intakes

No on-site water supply wells were observed during the site visit. Water meters and fire hydrants

were observed on the Site during the site visit.


An unnamed perennial stream flows east to west through the northwestern part of the Site. The

unnamed perennial stream was not observed during the site visit. Two dry drainages were

observed to the northeast of the Waste Disposal Area. The drainages were about three feet wide

and covered with leaves and moss at the time of the site visit.

1.5 Waste Disposal Area

Access to the Waste Disposal Area is from a dirt path at the end of Genes Ridge (Photo 1). The

Waste Disposal Area occupies 9.5 acres based on the estimated Waste Disposal Area perimeter

shown on Figures 1 through 3.

The Waste Disposal Area is located on a ridge, with surface water flow most likely toward the

north and northwest. A comparison of the topography from the 1993 USGS 7.5 minute

topographic quadrangle map (10 foot contours, based on 1973 aerial photography) with the 2005

Falls Dump

No ID Assigned

6

topographic map from NCDOT (5 foot contours), indicates that up to about 15 feet of disposal

material has been placed on the northeast-central part of the Waste Disposal Area.

The depth of waste is estimated based on a comparison of topographic maps of different vintages

constructed using different methods. Differences between elevations on the maps may reflect

actual elevation changes or may be apparent differences due to the different map making

methods. The elevation comparisons are approximate and differences in scale and methods of

mapping are not sufficient to evaluate some changes in topography.

GPS coordinates were taken of the Waste Disposal Area perimeter. The approximate Waste

Disposal Area perimeter is illustrated on the figures and on aerial photographs in Appendix E. A

table of GPS coordinates for the Site entrance and the Waste Disposal Area perimeter is

presented in Table 1. The Waste Disposal Area perimeter location is approximate and is based on

visual observations made at the time of the site visit and interpretation of aerial photographs.

Figures 4 and 5 show LiDAR shaded relief superimposed on the Waste Disposal Area.

1.6 Waste Disposal Area Conditions

The Waste Disposal Area was covered with bare ground, kudzu, briars, deciduous and pine trees

of four to seven inches in diameter, and mobile homes. A landfill slope was observed along the

northern Waste Disposal Area boundary. Exposed disposal material was observed in the landfill

slope and included white goods, plastic, glass, tires, metal debris, and paint cans. Disposal

material consisting of similar material was also observed along the northeastern and

southwestern Waste Disposal Area boundaries. Hummocky topography was observed on the

central and southeast central parts of the Waste Disposal Area. A hill slope is apparent on the

southeastern boundary of the Waste Disposal Area near the mobile homes.

The observed Waste Disposal Area is on multiple Properties, Tax Parcel Nos. 3543-43-8074,

3543-52-7357, 3543-52-6877, 3543-52-5955, 3543-53-4044, and 3543-53-3133. The perimeter

of the Waste Disposal Area was visually evident based on the presence of exposed disposal

material and a landfill slope. The majority of the Waste Disposal Area is on Tax Parcel Nos.

3543-43-8074 owned by Ms. Jean Falls Parker and 3543-52-7357 owned by Mr. Gene Falls. The

northeastern part of the Waste Disposal Area extends onto Tax Parcel Nos. 3543-52-6877 owned

by Ms. Danielle Marie Nolan-Cook, 3543-52-5955 owned by Ms. Deborah Lee, 3543-53-4044

owned by Ms. Mary Willoughby, and 3543-53-3133 owned by Ms. Linda Adams. Coordinates

of points on the estimated perimeter of the Waste Disposal Area are listed on Table 1.

No notable erosion, depressions, offensive odors, stained or discolored soils, or slope failures

were observed during the site visit.

1.7 Evidence of Human Activity

Mobile homes were observed on the southeastern part of the Waste Disposal Area. The

northeastern part of the Waste Disposal Area extends onto the backyards of four residential

properties.

1.8 Potential Landfill Gas Migration Pathways

Potential gas migration pathways located on the Waste Disposal Area and Site include:

• Mobile homes with crawl spaces: southeastern and northeastern parts of the Waste

Disposal Area and Site.

• Underground water and telephone lines: southeastern part of Waste Disposal Area and

Site.

• Septic systems: southeastern part of Waste Disposal Area and Site.

• Enclosed shed: southeastern part of Waste Disposal Area.

1.9 Physical Barriers

Site access is provided by Genes Ridge from Forbes Road. Physical barriers were not observed

along the property boundaries.

2.0 VICINITY CONDITIONS

This section describes the observed general conditions in the vicinity of the Site, as defined by an

area within 1,000 feet of the perimeter of the Waste Disposal Area. Photographs illustrating

vicinity conditions are included in Appendix D.

2.1 Structures Located on Adjacent Properties

Structures described in this section are located on adjacent properties that have a shared property

boundary with the Site and are within 1,000 feet of the Waste Disposal Area boundary.

Several houses are located to the north, south, and east of the Site on multiple tax parcels. These

structures are shown on Figure 2 and on aerial photographs in Appendix E.

* The private water well location shown on Figure 2 was verified by interview. If not observed,

water wells are assumed to be near residences not served by public water systems and these well

locations are shown in an assumed location near the residences on figures and aerial

The nearest public water supply registered on the NCDENR Public Water Supply Section’s

database (as of January 2011) is a public water supply well (0136287-GW) located to the

southeast of the Site. This location is 600 feet in an apparent side- to up-gradient direction from

the Site on Wesley Drive, Gastonia, NC 28052 (Contact: Leigh Sprimont, 704-489-9404). The

location and permit number for this well are shown on Figure 1.
