OVERVIEW
The City of Huntington Beach has requested technical
assistance in mitigating the migration of methane gas from
the Huntington Beach Manic -opal Landfill. Two specific areas
of inquiry are recognized, First, it is necessary to ascer-
taini..
Lain whether migrating metjaare gas poses a potential hazard to
the genexal public. Such hazards exist wi,Jn methane, at
concentrations exceeding certain limits, migrates beyond the
landfill boundaries. to areas acresible by the public. Second,
if methane is fount; to exceed certain limits ouLsideof the
landfill boundary area., it is necessary to zdent_fy methods
to ,mitigate the potential hazard..: Calscience Researoh, Inc.
(CR ) is one of few firms in Southern California with exper-
tise in Ghe areas of methane gas migration, control, and
recovery, and is thus well-qua.litied to perforzi the afore--
mentioned research activities,
S'UMARY OF QUALIFIC.TXCNa
CR1 is an environmental e:i i,neeri.ng firm specializing in
the monitorIng, control, recovery, atnd uti,l1,za,tion of methane
gay from solid waste 3:a,xdfi.:tls. QRT has been actively involved
in this specialized fiBld ,since its format on in 1978.
brie" b,iographioai sketch of key personnel available fox the
project are summarized, in the following iaar�grapns.
I Z . TECHNICAL APP.ROAC}I
:
OVERVx:W
Based on infcsinati on provided by Mr. Tim Way and our site
visit on September 1,, , 1982, the following technical. approaches,
""Sre developed;
Tas;> 1. Selection of Monitoring Locations;
Task 2. In-stallation of monitoring Probes;
'Task 3. Znvestigat: on. of Methane Migration
n
Task 4. Short Term Extraction testy
Task 5. Design of Methane Migration Control. System; and.

TASK 1. SELECTION OF MONITORING LOCATIONS
In order to investigate the possibility of methane mi-
grating he pond landfill boundaries and violating state regula-
tions regarc3inq such, a monitoring effort should be conducted,
? determine subsurface methane levels at the property line.
According to state °~e,ulatior:.s, the concentration of methane
at the landfill property .Lino should not exceed 5 percent.
State regul,ati(t ns also indicate that rgethana levels in struc-
tures located on the landfill should not exceed 1.25 percent.
i.owever, there are no permane,t str"ctures on the Iandfi.11 at
The property line, as defined by the state Solid Waste
Managenjent "Board, incl.udr,•s froth a subsurface bouz;Q7iry and the
space above the landfill surface. In order to monitor methane
r
y
levels at the ;subsurface property line, monitoring probes
shall be installed. During the performance of this task,, the
locations of the monitoring wells will be selected. It is
anticipated that eight wells will be selected along the pro-
,
perty liiie for the initial monitoring. Another two wells
will be installed for locations where methane levels are
found to be excessive during the initial nonitoiirg. Ths<S6
two wells will serve as intensive investigation points iur
detailed monitoring.
Besides the ::en wells { 8 + 2 10 ) �wentioned abov(
;
a single extraction well will be i.nstallad inside the Iandfill.
This well will serve the following purposes:
To examine the extraction rate, radius of influence,
and gas permTability of the landfill. This infor-
mation is important in the design of the gas migration
control system and
en To examine the passibility of recoveri.n.q methane as an
energy source for neighboring facilities (such as the
Ocean 'View mushroom .farm, etc.
:Iit establishing landfill parameters such as radius of influence,
gas permeability, etc., landfill pressure data is needed. By
strategically locating the extraction well, the monitoring
wells can also serve as landfill pressure monitoring locations_
TASK ? . INSTALLATION OF MONITORING PROB';VS
It is known that methane levels may vary siq'nifiDarttly
at differen : depths. Therefore, for r,: ch monitoring 1.ell.,at
.east three: monitoring probes will be. .,stalled. The depths
of the probes are F-it.ticxpatad to be nround 5, ltl and 20 feet.

TASK3. INVESTIGATION OF METHANE MIGRATION
Sampling
��
Gas same es will be withdrawn from each mcn .tor, ng probe
at various tx;nes during the day, with and without "he ryxtrac-
n
tioli well in operation. Due co the fact that gas migration
is affected by barometric pressure, the following sampling
times are generally selected: 6 AM, 9 AM, 12 N, 2PM, 5 Phi,
an?` 10 PM. At Least two different sampling dates will be
selected. morder toq monitor ;methane le,,.,-els with and without
the extraction condition.
In additi:-zkn to the above mentioned sabsufface monitoring,
f surface measurements (about one friot, above the ground) of methane
m. ncentrations will also be performed, Methane levels above
:the ) andfill t k 'face rarely exceed 5 percent.. However, in
order to avoid any controversy, such measurements will be made.
' The tutface measurements will be conducted Burin- the critical
times of the day (i.e., during hat .afte -nouns and/or in the
abser_cr� of wind) at :several (about 10) locations above the
landfill and around the ;property Line*: one monitoring point

TASK A- SHORT "TERM' EXTRACTION T8ST
Short-term extr ctio tenting can provide valuable infoar-
Wat ou on the design of -.have migral" ion and/or methane re-
€ overt' systems, R short-term test nay not be necessary for
`
the methane control systawstt if sufficient design information
can be obtained from other landfills of similar nature. However,
if migrat n control: information is insufficeint, such a i est
shall be conducted,
Since methane gas is a valuable energy source, CFI suggests
that methane recovery be examined. If we assume an effective
landfill extraction area of 10 acres and an average refuse: depth
15 feet, and we also assume a methane prcductzan rate of
0.1 :t 3/i/{Yr `tiNote„ 0.1 ft�/4/yr .is a conservative estimate,
the ranee of methane production from landfills is 0.1 to 0.6
ft /#/yr),f the methane extraction rate could exceed 3 x 1.0� CU.
f
ft per ye4r, Assuming the market value of methane gas its
3. ia/MVT14 the potential, income pox the 'City of Huntington
Beach faux the sale of the extracted gas could amount to
l
550400/yr• A potential buyer of such medium BTU gas is the
� �+
Ocean view mushroom farm, which needs gas to generate steam foY
the mushroom hothovses. The methane may also be used for on-
site extraction or migration control equipment...
The short-term extraction test will be conducted at about
five difl'=erero- extraction rates. Each extraction rate is ex-
pectPd to last about four hours. During extraction, both"
me .},ane concentration and pressure data from nearby monitoring
probes will be recordeu.

Note that this task shall be conducted only upon consent
from the City, If a methane recovery evaluation is not
desired, this task may be cancelled. In this case, the ex-
traction condition mentioned in `,Lusk 3 will :not be performed.
F
TASK 5, DESIGN OF METHANE r IGRNTION CONTROL SYSTEM
Upon completion of Tasks L to 3, and if methane levels
are found to be in violation of state ragu, ations, a methane
migration control i ,ystem, will be designed. A brief dis-
cussion of gas control :systems is described below. CRT will
select the most cos i- affective method fc- the City*.

Impervious liner materials used to control gas flog include synthetic
membranes, clay, and asphalt. %atural soil barriers such as clay ::a 'r
serve as highly efficient bsrriers to gas migration, provided the soil
is kept nearly saturated. Dry soils (even clays) are ineffective
barriers, since they provide a continous void system through which gas
may migrate. Barriers are best placed duri°ng landfill construction
subsequeat installation, if not impossible to achieve, is often costly,
and less extensive than necessary.

OF
GAS CONTROL SYSTEMS'
Perimeter vent systems incude gravel trenches, rubble vent stacks,
gravel -filled vent walls, and combinations thereof. Venting may be
accomplished through either passive or induced exhaust systems, with
selection,de"nding on site conditions.
Passive- systems rely on highly penaeable material, such as gravel,
placed in the path of the gas flow. Since the permeable material
offers a path snare conducive to convective gas flow than the
surrounding sail, some gas is diverted to a point of controlled
release.
e Induced flow sy+�tems have proven very effective in migration
control.. Typically such systems employ, suitably designee vertical
we115 or trenches which are connected to a vacuum exhaust system.
Gases colllected by exhaust systems arc generally disposed of by direct
staging or iociner-a on.. Gases from passive vent systems usually
discharge directly to the atmosphere; however, where control of odors is
necessary., the gases are combos'ted in a burner or passedthrough
materials, which absorb that gas. In all instances, unct�mbusted gas must
n ].
be exhausted into a proteatcd art -a, v here it is rapt suojert to acci-
dental ignition.
Criteria established under the authority of ',he Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act of 1974 _iRC,RA3 include a requirement that methane con-
centratkons at the landfill boundary not exceed a lower explosive limit
Of 5% (10% landfill gas), This criterion makes a gas control system
ma Fdatory at many landfills. liowrver, the potential hazards ass-ciated
with migrating landfill gas may not always warrant the install." "on of
�• .
an elaborate and costly control system; it sone'timYs, happens that only
portion of the landfill surface or adjacent area requires control
Measurez..
In such Cases, specific features may be incorporated into the design of
structures, utility lanes, or other facilities, often at a cost logerr
than that of a large-scale control system. For buildings and other
ate:
structures; protective. design features may range from the simple to the
fairly complex. Avery basic ,eature, for example, is use of an imper�
vious membrane between the slab and subgrade in buildings of slab -on -
grade construction. A, more effective system, which permits passive or
e.xbaust. venting of the intercepted gAs, is provided by adding a
permeable blanket with exhaust pipas between the membrane and subgrade.
In addition, automatic methane gas sensors can :be positioned in the
permeable blanket to trigger an alarm when methane gas concentrations
exceed a preselected level.

Choice of the proper :method can only be made after a
careful, analysis of site coed uions, adjacent land uses, and
other considerations. One option which is finding increased
€
favor is corrbi.ning both central and gas recovery. This
alternative provides l&-otection from Che negative ;affects of

Subject: Proposal,- Huntington Beach Landfill. urethane Migration
Control/Recovery Study
Dear Six,
Ca1sci:ence Rerearch, Inc (;Cal) is pleased to enclose two- copies
of the technical and cost proposal for the study and design of
the methane migration control and recovery systems for the
Huntington Beach Landfill.. Two options were developed by CRI,.
Option No. 1 is the study of the potential methane migration
problems and the design of a migration control system for
the work of Option No. 1 and adds a study of the feasibility
9 problem. Option No. 2 wall include a
p y
.
of recovering methane from the landfill for possible sale
„ ox for use by the migration control equipment. CRI estimates
a 'project time frame of about two months &nd` a total cost
of $5,550 for Option No, l and $9,330 for option No. 2.
CRI: will accept either optiGn from the City of Huntington Beach.
b It is our opinion that Option No, 2 can tie .beneficial for the
City. Accordiing to our estimate, the methane qa.s produced from
the landfill could be worth about $ 0, 000 per year (refer to
Vlie proposal for details) lJowever, clue tb a wide variety of
factors xnvolwedr the feasibility of methane xeG-Ver • needs to
lye cxplor06.' b,V shOrt-term extraction testing.

A
Deal~ Mr. Evanas
As Dr. llu discussed with you on June 21 and 23, Calscien.ce
Research Inc,. (CRI) is pleased: to resubmit our cost proposal for
-the subject study. Based on the technical approaches in our
4 original proposal (,submitted Sept. 28, 1982), our new cost estimates
ate 7205 and $10, 263 for options #1 and #2, respectively. The
1.0,E increases reflect higher CRI hourly rates and higher drilling
costs. CRI will accept either option from the city.
Besides the scope of work as described in the proposal, any
additionel.. work (e.g., attendance at coordination meetings) required
by the city will be billed at the rate of $44/hr for senior level
CRI personnel. and $33%hr for staff level personnel.
Through performance of numerous related governmental and private
projects, CRI has the necessary experience and background to +
successfully complete the sub jet°t project. We appreciate the
opportunity to present our gaalifications and the proposal for
your consideration. We look forward to the opportlanity of working
on this project. Should any questions arise, please do not hesitate
to Contact Dr. ,Samos Zu or myself.
Respectfully yours,
