Gedney Way Landfill Closure and Solar Farm
Gedney Way Recycling Yard in White Plains has undergone a significant transformation in uses.
AKRF is providing environmental consulting services to the City of White Plains to support composting operations and complete landfill closure requirements at the Gedney Way recycling facility.
We completed landfill closure activities to fulfill the requirements of a NYSDEC Order on Consent, including a subsurface investigation to determine the nature and extent of landfill materials and leachate, planning and conceptual design to complete landfill closure, and construction of the landfill cap.
Landfill cap installation was completed in 2013, and AKRF is completing performance monitoring to confirm that the site cap is effective in meeting the landfill closure goals. Design work is also underway to add a solar array field to the former landfill.
