Study on the Non-Compliant Landfill from Bârlad in Vaslui County

This paper presents a part of a comprehensive study on non-compliant landfill in Vaslui County. We have been tracking the subsidences taking place in the body of waste dumps and the amount of gas removed to take the best post-closure monitoring measures. In order to trace the behavior regarding the subsidence in the landfill body, there were placed in the ground 11 milestones/topographic landmarks of plastics, painted in white and red to be easily identified visually. Keeping them on the same positions made possible the analysis in the present study. Topographic surveys in the ground were performed once a month between April 2014 and September 2015. The results, interpretations and proposed solutions are presented in this paper.
