It is our understanding that 70-foot tall. galvanized steel light poles are being considered for lighting for soccer fields constructed ori a closed landfill. A site visit was conducted 17 March, 20l4 and a limited number of documents were reviewed in preparation of the proposal, provided to the Lexington United Soeeer Club on 28 April. 2014. Based on review of the available documentation related to the landfill, disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) began circa 1930 and continued until 1963 nhen the waste was covered by a layer of silt and clay after which it was capped in 2003 using dredge soil consisting of silt and clay from the Mystic River and blast rock from the Route 2 construction, According to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) the landfill has been certified as closed. Soil gas sampling data indicated that the concentration of combustible gas exceeded 25 percent of lower explosive lirnit (LEL) and in the vicinity o[ the northeast corner of the site the combustible gas concentration consistently exceeded 100 percent of LEL (>5% methane by volume). Due to the elevated mcthane readings. a 93041 long vertical barrier vapor management system was installed along Lincoln Street. Anporcnily, since installation of the vapor management system, elevated levels of combustible soil gas have not been reported at the properly line (i.e., compliance point) other than along Lincoln Street. In 2010^ data was collected from sampling locations along the vent trench showing a decrease in the maximum LEL of 56 percent. Based on our experience, MassDEP North East Region 0[Ocr(NERO} will he recepo\e 10 the installation ofthe |iuhi poles for the field. Thcy will focus on bow landfill gas can be properly vented and to minimize the potential of gas accumulation along with ensuring stability of the light poles. TecboicoUy, we did not identify any insurmountable issues. as we believe items such as landfill gas levels and suhsurface conditions can be managed through a field investigation and good design. A potential issue nfconcern is the noniinal diameter ofthe blast rock. If too large (ie., difficult to drill through) or if voids exist around the material (i.c_ not a stable foundu1/oo), 2014-05-2 LincolnFields _Lexington Executive S"mmaryw"n".duo engineers 1 scierittsts innovators Lincoln Field 20 May 2014 Pae 2 could impact construction costs. The cost to improve the foundations can be developed when field data is collected. It is Geosyntec's opinion that the project has merit for commencing to the site investigation phase for further analysis and subsequent construction. Based on our experience (Geosyntec is a company with a 30-year history in delivering world- class expertise in the application of the geosciences, environmental and geotechnical services) closed landfills have been re-used for multiple uses, including thc installation of lighting. Geosyntec has been involved in the following projects. Mount Pisgah Christian School Property Redevelopment in Johns Creek, Georgia: Athletic complex over a 35-acre landfill area in Johns Creek which included lighting. • San Marcos 1 Landfill Post-Closure Recreational Field Reuse, California: Light standards included full penetration of approximately 15-ft thick waste profile. City of Sunnyvale Closed Landfill, California: A feasibility study that included installation of lighting at a landfill for recreational purposes was perfon-ned. Regarding construction costs, it is reasonable to assume landfill material would need to be removed to create a stable foundation and would need to be handled as potentially contaminated material (it is noted that some of the poles may be able to be installed off the landfill). This will result in additional cost to the project for the disposal of the material. For each 100 yd' of potentially contaminated soil, assuming no free liquids, and using 30 cubic yard durnpsters. the additional cost would be approximately $2,500. Geosyntec would recommend as an added protection that the contractor should use personal protective equipment (PPE) while performing the work. This may add an additional ten percent to the overall foundation construction cost to cover the PPE, training and monitoring during the installation of the light poles.
