The Tay-Ban Corporation (Tay-Ban), a subsidiary of Republic Waste Services, owns and operates a Type II sanitary landfill in Birch Run, Michigan. BCI has been   working on this project and assisting Tay-Ban for approximately 12 years.  Preparation and submittal of a revised site Hydrogeologic Monitoring Plan to the MDEQ was completed on Tay-Ban’s behalf. This revised plan focused on groundwater monitoring of the uppermost water bearing unit underlying the landfill. Eliminated from the prior plan were wells in a lower   water bearing unit and various chemical constituents which were deemed inappropriate for the site. BCI staff successfully negotiated the implementation of this plan with the MDEQ.

Presently, BCI performs routine environmental sampling of the landfill, prepares quarterly monitoring reports and completes required statistical evaluations of the data.
