Dear Mr. Duckworth:
As you are aware, each quarter the monitoring wells at the Weld County Disposal
are sampled, analyzed and then submitted to the Environmental Protection Division
of the Weld County Health Department for review. Data submitted in regard to the
monitoring wells at the Disposal indicate that contamination of groundwater at
that facility may have occurred.
This contamination appears to have the potential for impairment of existing or
future use of groundwater. This situation is currently under review by the
Hazardous Materials and Waste Management Division of the Colorado Department of
Health. If the Hazardous Materials and Waste Management Division determines that
the above mentioned contamination is in fact causing an impairment to existing
or future use of groundwater, this facility, will be required to come into
compliance with the "Regulations Pertaining to Solid Waste Disposal Sites and
Facilities". This would include Section 6.3.2 which would require submittal of
a detailed written assessment of the impact of the seepage on the receiving
aquifer and proposed remedial action within forty-five (45) days.
This Division will notify your facility of any determination and necessary
requirements in regard to this matter. If you have any further questions, please
contact Trevor Jiricek at (303) 353-0635.
Sincerely,
Trevor Jiricek
Solid and Hazardous Waste Specialist
