 Gluing
 Welding
 None
3. What does Hydrologic Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) model estimates?
 Estimates gas formation in landfill
 Estimates Water balance in landfill
 Estimates life of landfill
 Estimates amount of waste landfill can handle
4. Which of the following is a rational behind designing landfill?
 Containing waste for a control release of emissions
 Containing waste for a elimination of emissions
 Containing waste for blockage of emissions
 none

following site you will choose for landfill construction
 Wetland far from the city
 Unused but unstable terrain
 Waste land along the immediate river side

6. In the absence of ETP at a landfill site which of the following method should be opt
out
 Mass evaporation
 Disposed off to nearby by lake for dilution
 Aeration in lined lagoon
 Hauled over to ETP using pipeline

siting a new potential landfill site for the long term disposal of solid waste
 True
 False
8. Post closure plan is not included in a plan for a landfill design
 True

expenses
