With our experience in auditing procedures and waste management, IntelliWaste can review your compliance with current environmental and regulatory compliance requirements. Our review identifies changes to processes and procedures to properly manage and control environmental and solid waste management risks and costs. We can assess requirements for future compliance capital costs and other non-recurring expenditures which affect cash flow projections.

Legislation	Effect
Eastin Bill	Mandatory funding for closure and 30 years post-closure
Subtitle D	More stringent landfill design and operations
Article 5	Increased water quality monitoring requirements
CIWMB Financial Assistance	Mechanism to cover third-party liability
Air District Rule 34	Landfill gas control system
AB 939	Increased recycling costs

One concern in this regard is the possible need for remedial action and groundwater cleanup if there have been any discharges from a landfill. Most private companies in evaluating a landfill include the cost of cleanup as an up-front capital item or immediate expense if it is projected within three years and if the dollar amount of the item is known. If the cost and time for cleanup appear many years in the future, the typical private operator will accrue for those future costs on an annual basis. In either event, since the cost of environmental remediation is great, an analysis of this factor is critical. Components of this analysis include:

• Adequacy of the current water quality monitoring program for compliance with long-term monitoring requirements, and estimates to correct any deficiencies
• Adequacy of current landfill gas monitoring program for compliance
• Potential for future cleanup or Corrective Action Program to be imposed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board.

Other long-term environmental costs may include the need for habitat acquisition and related activities.
