The Boise Cascade Moonlight
Rock Industrial Landfill was experiencing unacceptable odors resulting from
omission of hydrogen sulfide gases. A total recovery cap and gas collection
system was constructed to effectively solve the gas problem and further reduce
leachate generation caused by rain infiltration. The landfill was determined
to be very unstable due to the saturated state of the contained sludge and
debris waste. Biaxial geogrid was used to cover the entire thirty-five acre
site and stabilize the waste such that construction of the cap and gas recovery
system could be constructed.
