Louisa County Landfill Closure Project an inactive 17-acre Municipal Solid Waste Final Closure cover system located in Mineral, VA. The site is the first application in the state to use ClosureTurf® as an EPA Subtitle D compliant landfill closure system. Joyce Engineering applied for and received final approval for the ClosureTurf® system as the final closure. The 18-acre site is an unlined Municipal Solid Waste site. Louisa County initially installed a partial closure utilizing a GCL and a 1.5-foot vegetative soil layer. Major issues for Louisa County were long-term environmental protection with the ground water, soil erosion, and long term post-closure maintenance. ClosureTurf® was selected as the long-term closure system to manage the rainfall infiltration, eliminate soil erosion, reduce post-closure maintenance costs, increase slope integrity and drivable access.
