RAYMOND nOAO S.'.*:iTAIV.' L\MDF

Location

The Raymond Road Sanitary Landfill is located in thenorthwest corner cf H^-3tt Township, Calhoim County, Michigan. Th~City 01 rattle Cre-.il: lies ixdj-icint to Eaaett Toraship to the east,Vaile ieiinsfield ic'-nsoip borders iiuMtL Tov/i^saip u> tlie iiortu. - -jori-c^vvnys ^liir.h r.r. ;:-^r the study area include the regicTil ^rt.-ryr?**rrr.d Prod, r»rr"crlr?.tply 1,200 feet to the west, p.nd the 1 nca.lartery, Verona Read, .appronirately 1,500-feet to the north (see Figure1).

Past. Present, Future Operations

'. Tha Rayrond Road Sanitary landfill initiated operation inMarch of 1973. The site was primarily abandoned farmland with an old

; gravel pit on its western edge. At the time of its opening, the:;-;?.;~ic coitions of ths site v/ers rated favorably under the c/irrent(1975) guidelines for landfill sites by the Department of Natural

.iResources.

Presently, the landfill is licensed as a Type II Landfill-5 receiving refuse from Marshall, Kalmmron, Coldwater, Hastings, Battle-* Creek, and the surrounding area of Battle Creek. "Die owner/operator

of the landfill, Mr. Wes Carter, estimates that 80% of the refusej coning Into the landfill is cardboard, 5% is demolition wastes, and

the remaining 15% is general refuse or garbage*1

1The present operation basically consists of vehicles entering

from Raymond Road through Hodgson Avenue and the gate at the Landfillentrance (see Figure 2). At the office, the tipping fee is collectedand directions to the dumping area are given. In the dumping area,two men who assist and direct the dumping remove ferrous andnon/ferrous metals for recycling and review the load so that onlymaterials acceptable to a Type II landfill are received. Any liquidsor other materials that are questionable are rejected. An end loaderthen moves and compacts the material. At the end of the day, sixinches of cover material is placed over the refuse by an end loader oran earth mover. Tfee final two foot cover is brought in by an earthmover frcm other areas on the Landfill property.

CXit of the total area that comprises the Raymond RoadSanitary landfill property, only 57 acres will be utilized forlandfill purposes. An area of 5 acres is licensed at'one time toreceive waste.

It has been implied that in the near future the landfill winclose to the public, convert to a Type III, and liraLt its wasteacceptance to the OK Wrecking Company. The wrecking company, ownedand operated by Mr. Carter, will then deposit only demolition wastes*

Area land Use

Existing land use IB the Raymond Road Landfill area includeslow-density residential, commercial, and industrial developments.Industry, which occupies the largest percentage of land area in thevicinity of the project site includes the following: Rieth-RileyConstruction, Grand Trunk Railroad storage and work yard, Kelloggs,Thomas Solvents. Hannah's Cement Products, Inc., Modern Cement, BattleCreek Wrecking and Landfill, and a livestock yard (see Figure 3)*Areas between

W1UKINS & WHEATON TESTING LABORATORY. INC.

Raymond Road and the Battle Creek River are predominantly industrial.Coimercial establishments are concentrated near the intersection ofRaymond Road, Erniett Street and Verona Road. Low-density residentialareas lie to the vest and south of the study area. A trailer park islocated in the developed area southeast of the study area. Familieshoused in these low-density residential areas are expected to bemoderate to low in income.

It is anticipated that the future land use of the area willbe similar to existing land uses* The Calhoun County ComprehensivePlan predicts that the area around the project site will continue tobe largely industrial, with smaller low-density residential andconnercial land use areas.

TOPOGRAPHY

The topography in the vicinity of the Raymond Road SanitaryLandfill corresponds closely with the surface geologic features.These features are describsd in the Area Geology Section of thisreport. Generally, the surface shows numerous ridges and depressionsseparated by gently undulating areas (see Figure 4). The dominanttopographic feature in the area Is the slope along the floodplain ofthe Battle Creek River. Here, there is a 60 to 70 foot change inelevation froni the relatively flat area of the floodplain to therolling hills above the slope.

Ground elevations in the area range from 820 feet (above MSL)along the Battle Creek River to 920 feet (above MSL) east of theLandfill. The elevation increases along the slope west of theLandfill, then east of the topographic high, dips down to severaldepressions in the 855 to 860 foot (above MSL) elevation range.

The topograpy of the Landfill site is the same as the gentlyrolling relief surrounding the site except for areas altered by nan's

! activities. Since a portion of the Landfill was used as a gravel pit,in addition to other excavation projects, small areas show sharply

i contrasting relief of 10 to 20 feet. These slopes are short ini expanse and are scattered throughout the Landfill property.

Fox Series:

These are well drained soils over sand and gravel on outwash:.s cue! terraces. It is free from boulders. The surface relief•.us from level to pitted. This series contains a conspicuousiish brown to dark brown gravelly clay loam subsoil underlain by:, calcareous sand and gravel at 2 to 3 1/2 feet. Glacial tilloccur at depths of 10 to 25 feet. Soils are moderately permeablethe upper part and rapidly permeable in the lower part* This soilMm ted by seepage and shallow excavation caving.

Genessee Series:X—-'

This series consists of deep, well drained soils formed inof bottomlands. In the Raymond Road area, this soil is

along the Battle Creek River. The surface texture is usually'.•nun or a silt loam. These soils are subject to overflow, however-• higher terraces are seldom under water.

Gilford Series:

This series consists of very poorly drained, moderatelyrapidly permeable soils that occupy outwash plains and glaciallaMxids and drainacerays. These soils are generally forr?:?d on sandysedirrcnts. The surface texture ranges fran a loamy sind to loam.IMs soils consists of s ndy and jjravelly material over 3o?n to claywhich occurs at depths of 5 to 20 feet or more. The water table isusually at or near the surface* Seepage, wetness, and flooding arelimitations in this series.

Houghton Series:

The Houghton series consists of very poorly drained,moderately slowly to moderately rapidly permeable soils. These soilsforced in organic catsrial in bogs and other dapressicnal areas T.lthinoutwash plains, lake plains, till plains and moraines. They have ablack muck surface layer, approximately nine inches thick, over layersof dark reddish brown or black muck* Limitations are wetness, excesshumus, seepage, and flooding.

Oshtemo Series:

The Oshtemo series consists of well drained, moderatelyrapidly permeable soil on outwash plains and moraines. These soilsformed in sandy material, they have dark grayish-brown sandy loamsurface layers approximately 9 inches thick, and brown sandy loamsurface layers approximately 5 inches thick. The subsoil isdark-reddish brown, slightly firm sandy loam in the upper 21 inchesand dark-brown loamy sand in the lower 25 inches, the underlyingmaterial is grayish-brown loose stratified coarse sand and finegravel. Seepage is the main limitation of this soil series.

Plainfield Series:

The Plainfield series, upon which the Raymond Hoad Landfillis located, consists of excessively drained soils roiv.-.i in -sandy

surface layer is 'o/cv.-a Icssy sor.d ap^roximtely ei^ht in '.v s thick.Ins subsoil is unit yellowish-brown sjnd twelve inches thick. Thesubstratum is li r.t yellowish-brown, yellov»lsh-bro7.Ti and ctrcr-j-bro'vnsand. The rcain limitation in this series is seepage.

Soils of Site:

The soils in the area of the Raymond Road Sanitary Landfillexhibit severe lijnitations for landfill activities due primarily toseepage or wetness. The Plainfield series, in v.'iich the lutdfill arealies, possesses these characteristics. However, because the map wasconstructed in 1927 as a generalized soil map, and there has beensignificant alterations to the surface due to man's activities, thesoils map is limited in value.

On-site field observations have shown that the top soil orother fill material mixed with the occassional clay lenses presentwill provide adequate cover and meet Department of Natural Resourcesrequirements. Beyond the cover material, the soils present in theLandfill area do not offer optimum conditions for a Type II sanitarylandfill.

The glacial deposits of the area are primarily outwashstratified sands and gravels. the water well logs in the areaindicate that the sands and gravels are the dominant materials, withclay lenses or clay rich layers occuring occasionally (see Appendix 2,as located on Figure 23). However, the well logs reveal that there isextensive inter-layering. The complexity of the glacial materials aresuch that any attempt at a cross-sectional evaluation would be amatter of conjecture* Generally, the water wells In the area extendto 840 to 850 feet above mean sea level. The majority of them showthe presence of clay layers, but It cannot be conclusively determinedif there are laterally continuous or to what degree of protection theyafford to the underlying aquifer. There are, however, quite extensiveclay-rich units in the project area.

The composition of glacial drift in contact with bedrockvaries in the project area. Figure 10 illustrates the nature of thematerials in contact with bedrock. In areas south and east of thesite, clay and broken rock are codnonly in contact with bedrock. Thelateral continuity of the«e clay layers cannot be conclusivelydetermined, however, their extensiveness in the area likely inhibitsvertical groundwater movement* This concept is discussed in detail inthe Hydrology Sectioo of this report.

Clay "hard &rn" lenses were observed in ther -•'• -

•....Uv.vcst corner of the site. The surficial deposits of many portionst-. ...£ si we have been altered by historical excavation and landfilling

The s-ib-js-facs 7~olc-y of the site \vas prirorily investigatedthrough eight soil borings drilled in August and September of 1980 and'.Uy of 1C32. Of these borings, six were developed into ooservationv-?lls. Additionally, tiiree test holes were drilled in October ofiy 74 . The locations of these test holes , the soil borings ,observation wells, and water quality sampling locations are shown onFigure 11.

Figure 12 illustrates the logs of the test holes dril3.ed in1974. Figures 13 through 20 are the logs for the observation wellsand borings conducted in 1930 and 1982. Tuble 2 is included as a keyto the symbols and terms used in the well logs.

Three geologic cross-sections were constructed from the logsof the observation wells and test holes (Figures 21, 22 and 23).These figures are useful in Illustrating the topography, water table(when information was available), and geologic materials of the site.The cross-sectional lines are illustrated on Figure 11.

Cross-section A-A1 , Figure 21, extends from Observation Well#2A to Test Hole #3 and Boring 1A, running in a generally south tonorth direction. This figure is particularly useful in illustratingthe presence of a bedrock high grading into a bedrock valley acrossthe site. The Marshall Sandstone in this area is a very dense,fine-grained, inpcrmsable unit. Boring 1A penetrated approximately 70

Cross-Soction B-31 , Figure 22, extends through the center ofths site in a general r.orth- outh direction, through Observation V.'ell"5, Test Hole *2, and Cj- rvation Vi'ell frO. This cross-section does

* not incorporate laud^ilied r aterial as the exact depth of material isnot known. Through this poi'uion of the site, clay is much moreprevalent. The southern and central portions of the site contain arcr.r r:rf-c3 c'~ c-'rfaca 1 ' r ci a. clay-rich sand and gravel unit.

v Surrcx-idins this unit is a sand and gravel unit containing severalgravel pockets, typical of outwash deposits. At an elevation in therange of 840 to 860 feet above mean sea level, a clay-rich sand andgravel unit appears to be continuous across much of the site. Ibisunit was encountered in all of the borings except Test Hole 3 andBoring 1A. It is likely that this unit acts as an aquitard for theunderlying aquifer.

Cross-section C-C1, Figure 23, generally runs from west toeast across the southern portion of the project site. FromObservation Well #3, the line of cross-section runs in a northwestsoutheast direction and then runs east-west through Observation Wells#4, #5 and #2A. As water was encountered in all of these wells, thiswas the only cross-section that could adequately illustrate the watertable. This figure is particularly useful in illustrating thegroundwater divide present at the site. Observation Well #5 appearsto be located very close to the highest elevation of the divide. Theapparently continuous clay-rich unit previously discussed is also

HYDHOUOGY

Surface Waters:

The dominant surface water feature in the area of the Raymond iRoad Landfill is the Battle Creek River, located west of the Landfill Isite. The average discharge per year for the Battle Creek River, at Ithe gauging station north of Eanett Road (see Figure 24) is 197 cubic ]feet per second. U.S.G.S. records for the years 1975 through 1978 are iincluded in Appendix I. The Raymond Road Landfill is located in a •sutfcasin of tho Battle Creek River Basin , south of this gauging 'station. More accurate and pertinent data for this subbasin and the ;Landfill site could be recorded if a gauging station were located inthe Battle Creek River just upstream from the confluence of tne BattleCreek River and the Ka lama TOO River* The Kalamazoo River data ~ ;(Appendix I) is also of United value because this gauging station is jlocated to measure the flow of both the Battle Creek and Kalamazoo iRivers, which drain very large areas* Thus, in utilizing theavailable gauging station data, it is not possible to extract specificinfonnation concerning the contribution of the subbasin in which the iRaymond Road landfill lies to the flow of the Battle Creek River. (

iThe other drainage basin present in the study area is the

Hall Lake Outlet Drainage Basin. This basin lies to the south and . ;V . . !

southeast of the landfill site. The basin consists of a series of !lakes and wetlands which flow into the Kaiaf*'*™ River.

The drainage divide between the Battle Creek River and HallLake Outlet Drainage Basin is fairly distinct. The divide follows thetopographic highs between the basins. However, the subbasin drainagedivide separating the Battle Creek River Drainage Basin north and

south of the gauging station is not distinct. It appears that theflow of surface water would run parallel to the divide in areas nearthe river. The eastern edge of the divide is at the top of a shortnorthwest to southeast trending hill.

Surface water of the subbasin occupied by the Landfill siteis limited to the Battle Creek River itself. In the Hall Lake OutletBasin, Brigham Lake, Hall Lake, and Dexter Lake comprise the majorsurface water features. A wetland area, called the Kellogg BiologicalPreserve lies tctrveen thes-3 lakes. Much of this area is County-owned.

Groundwator

Calhoun County water well logs were investigated to determinegroundwater elevations and the direction of groundwater movement inthe area of the Raymond Road Sanitary • landfill. Twenty-eight (28)well logs were located in the area of the Landfill to interpret thearea hydrology (Appendix II, as located on Figure 25).

Figure 23 shows the groundwater elevations of the wells inthe area (including the on-site observation wells) and thepotenticmetric surface of the project area. As information is limitedfor the area, minor consideration was given to the wells being drilledin different years and seasons. .This figure is particularly useful inillustrating the groundwater divide which trends northeast-southwestthrough the east side of the Landfill site and project area. Thedashed contour lines on this figure are contours of static waterlevels using data from wells completed and producing in the MarshallSandstone - The solid contour lines are contours of static waterlevels frcm water wells and soil borings completed in glacial driftand/or the Marshall Sandstone.

' wells, as measured on September 22, j£60 and Cctccer 12, 125?2.Because Observation Wells #4, #5 and ffQ were installed in Liay of 1332,data from October 12, 1982 was used for hydrologic interpretations.Static water levels at the site range between approximately 29 feet

, and in excess of 50 feet below the ground surface. Groundwater> elevations range between approxijiately 838 and 860 feet above mean sea

level.

As previously discussed, a bedrock high (Marshall Sandstone)runs along the north end of the site* The bedrock here is a verydense, impermeable sandstone* There are no detected water-bearingformations above the sandstone la this location, as confirmed by theplacement of observation Wells #1, #6 and Boring 1A. The water tableis depressed to a depth greater than 120 feet below the ground surfacein the northwest corner of the site (Boring 1A).

The placement of the observation wells confirms the presenceof a prouadrt-atet divide across the site. This was expected, as theBattle Creek River lies to the v,est» the Ha.ll Lake Outlet to thesoutheast (which discharges to the Kalamzoo River to the south), andthe UuivUiil site lies at ?. higher elevation between the two.Observation "'all £5 appears to be located at the high of thegrounded ter divide , which trends north-northeast to south-southwestacross the site (Figure 23). Groundwater appsars to flow generallytowards the wast and east-southeast from the divide. The majority ofthe site lies oa uie c£.-«cm sicla of the divide , resulting in az?n?rally vest direction of flow across much of the site.

Hydraulic continuity between the glacial drift and MarshallSandstone is variable in the project area. This concept is veryimportant as domestic wells in the project area are primarilycompleted in bedrock. As many of the dcosstic water well logs in thearea identify ext3nsive clay units in contact with bedrock (refer toFigure 10), it is not likely that hydraulic continuity exists in theseareas. Lateral continuity of these clays ?;culd impede the downwardmovement of groundwaters between aquifers*

Extensive clay or clay-rich units have been identified at theproject site. Across the southern and southeastern portions of thesite, particularly, a clay-rich unit has been identified in theborings for Observation Wells #2A, #3, #4 and #5. This unit maylikely act as an aquitard for the underlying aquifer and inhibit 'vertical groundwater movement and subsurface contamination* It is .-• ,.

!*•! ' Ilikely, however, that the Marshall Sandstone is in hydraulic \{ :;continuity with the overlying glacial drift (beneath the clay-richunit) underlying the project site* The characteristics of thesandstone at the northern end of the site, very fine grained andimpermeable, isolates the site from areas to the north (see boringlogs for Observation Wells #1, #6 and Boring 1A).

According to Vanlier (l£-33) and Black and Veatch (1976),groundwater in the Verona. V.'all Field near Raymond Road Landfill ishard to very hard, typically containing 310 us A total hardness asO.Co-,. Dominant ions are bicarbonate (KCCXj) with values near 300ng/1; and calcium (Ca), 87 ns/i; and magnesium ('•£), 22 mg/1. Iron(Fe) concentrations are near 0.6 ms/1, which is high and may beobjectionable ior some v. cer U3-3S. Suli te (SO.,) rr-r.-ps up to abouto60 ci3/l. Nitrate nitrogen is typically less than .01 irg/l. Chlorideconcentrations range from 2 to 22 mg/1, while sodium (Na)concentrations range from approximately 250 to 370 mg/1. Theconcentrations of these chemicals is within the expected range forwater in glacial materials of the area.

The above mentioned chemical concentrations typify both theVerona Well field and the* River Well field, ftwever, the River Well

Groundvater samples were collected from Observation Wells">\, #3, #4, and #5, the plant well at Blaskie Auto Body (northwest ofi'o site), the well at Hannah's Cement Products, Inc. (southeast of'>:~ site), and a residential well northwest of the site to determine-•••? -*iter quality at the Raymond Road Sanitary Landfill (see Figure 11for specific locations). As previously discussed, water samples couldnot be obtained from Observation Wells #1 and #6, as both resulted in"dry holes". The placement of these two wells confirms the presencec' an ir:;r2TT .bl3 bedroc- hi^h on the north end of the site gradinginto a beirccii valley across the central and southern portions of theLandfill. Because a groundwater divide exists across the easternportion of the site (trending approximately north-south, see .Figure28), the designation of upgradient and downgradient wells is. morecccple*. Observation Well #5 is located on the groundwater highoutside of the fill areas; it, therefore may be considered upgradientof Observation Wells #2, #3, #4 and the well at Hannah's CementProducts, Inc. The well at Blaskie Auto Body, because of itslocation, may - be considered as "upgradient" or background waterquality. Residence A, northwest of the project site, is a bedrockwell producing from the Marshall Sandstone. The results of the waterquality analyses are listed in Table 2.

Chloride concentrations ranged between 25 mg/1 in ObservationWell #3 to 130 mg/1 at Residence A. Sodium concentrations ranged,between 4.1 mg/1 in Observation Well #3 to 31 mg/1 at Residence A. Asa correlation exists in high and low values of these two parameters,it is likely that road salts are the primary source of sodium andchloride. The EPA Secondary Drinking Water Standard for chloride is250 rog/1, a level not exceeded in any of the obtained samples*

TheEPA Primary Drinking Water Standard for lead is 0.05 mg/1, a level jexceeded in the well at Residence A. The source of the lead in thislocation is currently unknown and continued monitoring is imperative.

The water quality of the Raymond Road Landfill site indicatesa certain degree of degradation. However, there is no apparentpattern within the data to attribute this degradation to activities atthe landfill site, but the potential still exists. The past land usesof and adjacent to the site mist be considered in evaluating the lowlevel degradation'It1 the site. Since there is no pattern to theelevated parameters and because some parameters normally associatedwith landfill leachate are not'elevated, no"conclusive determination.-J& **• jcan be derived from the existing information. Continued monitoring at ;the sampling locations is necessary to create a data base from whichfurther correlations can be made.

The following nay bo concluded from the results of theHydrogeologic Investigate:! xor tlio Pwiytrond Road Sanitary Landfillproject site.

*•"1. The Raymond Rood Sanitary Landfill is a Type II

facility which receives approximately 80%cardboard, 5% demolition wastes, and 15%

* general refuse. tfith the closing of manylaniiills in the region, the caount of domestic

\~s "garbage" the Landfill receives has recentlyincreased. It is anticipated that within the

' next year, the Landfill will convert to a Type *III facility and only accept wastes from the OKWrecking Company.

* 2. The area surrounding the Raymond Road Landfillproject site is primarily industrial withlocalized areas of older residentialdevelopments* Immediate areas north and eastof the site are undeveloped.

3. The geoligic materials beneath the Raymond RoadLandfill project site consists of densesandstone bedrock overlain tor sands and gravelswith extensive amounts of clay-rich materialsand discontinuous clay lenses. These clay-richunits and clay lenses appear to be continuous •beneath the majQp&ty of the site, acting .as anaquitard and providing a. degree of protectionto the underlying aquifer* -_

4. The groundwatf?r beneath the Raymond RoadSanitary Landfill lias been detected to range

^ proundv;ater movement either to the general westor southeast away from the"site.

5. The groundwater quality beneath the Rayiaond^ Road Landfill site shows a minor degree of

degradation. Though ti.e potential exists fori, activities at the Landfill site to result in

this degradation, past land uses of andadjacent to the site oust be considered. Theinconsistency of the elevated parameters do notindicate a conclusive pattern*

6. There is only one indication of a water supply"* ; :
