Consistently monitoring since 1999.

Kapur was contracted by the City of Burlington in 1999 to perform environmental monitoring and closure services at their landfill which is located east of Maryland Avenue and south of Milwaukee Avenue.

Our staff coordinated all activities associated with the Landfill Closure Plan, including all correspondence with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Our tasks included:

  • Conducting routine compliance monitoring of landfill groundwater wells, gas well points, and landfill gas extraction system (GES) per WDNR Environmental Monitoring Requirements in accordance with Wisconsin Administrative Code (WAC) Ch. NR 140, Chs. 500-508, and Ch. 809.
  • Prepare and submit semiannual and annual monitoring reports to WDNR.
  • Service gas extraction system and monitoring points as needed.  
  • Successfully modified the Landfill Closure Plan to reduce monitoring requirements.

Monitoring activities continue year to year, and Kapur recently extended a contract to provide services for the City.
