1 GIS and Solid Waste Site assessment of illegal dump sites using GIS!

2 Site Assessment Form The State asks for the following information: (among other) Waste area(s) dimensions Soil Type Mean annual precipitation Is waste area within a flood plain? (Y/N) Slope pitch Show detailed site map(s)

3 Waste Area Dimensions GPS the outline of the dump. The GIS software calculates the surface area, perimeter etc. Estimate the depth of the dump and calculate the rough volume of trash to be removed.

4 Disposal Site Characteristics 0.11 526 4.0 3.0

5 Identify the Responsible Party Locate the site. Verify the property the site is located on. Identify the responsible party. Owner: Greg Garbage & Donna Dump i Owner: Greg Garbage & Donna Dump Mail:PO Box 123 Trash City Site:999 Darn Ln. Refuse Village

6 Access additional Information from various shape files Soil Mariposa Formation … Precipitation 27 – 35 in … Floodplain Not in floodplain …

7 Risk Assessment Put the dot on the map

8 Risk Assessment Put the dot on the map Measure to the dwellings

9 Risk Assessment Put the dot on the map Measure to the dwellings Measure to well and creek

10 Risk Assessment Put the dot on the map Measure to the dwellings Measure to well and creek Add contour lines for the relief

11 Slope The GIS software calculates the pitch of the slope

12 Slope i The dump site is located on a slope with a 15.1 to 20 ° pitch

13 Put the dot on the map Measure to the dwellings Measure to well and creek Add contour lines for the relief Risk Assessment NO   340’, 900’ and 1430’   NO  (creek) Maps are enclosed! YES NO
