Closed Landfill Monitoring

New England

FBE works with municipalities across Maine to conduct annual monitoring at closed municipal landfills in accordance with the Maine Department of Environmental Protection's Post-Closure Monitoring Program. FBE staff conduct low-flow groundwater monitoring at monitoring wells around the landfill, as well as at residential wells in close proximity to the landfill. FBE provides high-quality monitoring and sample collection, data analysis, and compliance reporting for closed landfill sites. FBE also works with municipalities to ensure that the landfill is properly maintained following its closure and that the municipality maintains an updated environmental monitoring plan with the State.
