Re: Landfill Disruption Permit and
Excess Fill Sampling and Testing Program
Dear Mayor Reiman:
I am writing to provide you with the scope of services required for preparing the Landfill Disruption
Permit and the Sampling and Testing Program for removal of excess fill soil from the former Matzel
property located along Beverly Street and Industrial Road.
As you are aware, since the Borough acquired a portion of the Matzel property, and the Matzel property
was under a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the NJDEP Bureau of Site Remediation, in order to
construct its stormwater equalization basin, the Borough was required to obtain a Landfill Disruption
Permit and develop a Soil Sampling and Testing Program to obtain NJDEP approval to dispose of excess
fill at the Borough landfill site.
With regard to the Landfill Disruption Permit Application, enclosed please find a September 2, 2005
letter to Sukhdev Bhalla, Chief-Bureau of Landfill and Recycling Management, Division of Solid and
Hazardous Waste of the NJDEP, which details the application and support documents required by the
NJDEP.
In its July 27,2006 letter (copy enclosed), the NJDEP Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Program
required a detailed Sampling and Testing Program be developed, approved and executed for the removal
of all excess fill.
In order to cover engineering costs associated with preparation of the Landfill Disruption Permit and
preparation and execution of the Sampling and Testing Program, we respectfully request the Borough
authorize T&M Associates to perform the work for a fee not-to-exceed $18,500.00 to be billed on an
hourly basis in accordance with our current rate schedule.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
