  2. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Name of Landfill site: Moon Plains- Nuwara Eliya • Since: 1996 • Land ownership: Department of Forest • Surrounding land use: It is located in the Plantation forest which belongs to the Forest Department. The forest where the landfill site is located is surrounded by agricultural land and tea estate land. The landfill site is located outside of Nuwara Eliya Municipal Council area.

  3. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Topography: The landfill site is located in a valley surrounded by plantation forest. The length of valley is approximately 400m and the depth of it is 30m to 40m. There is stream approximately 500m below the valley. The stream finally flows into the Bomuraella reservoir where water is being taken for irrigation as well as for domestic purposes. The valley where the existing landfill site is located catches rainwater within the meadow land owned by agricultural department upside of the valley.

  4. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Geology and Soil: The overburden consist of a residual formation of sandy clays, clayey sand followed by the stronger layer of very highly weathered rock and end up with hard rock over all the tested area. Thickness of the soil layer is very from 0.85 m to 3.75 m. The permeability (k) of borehole is 0.15-4.28 l0-7m/s.

  5. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Meteorology The site is situated in Upcountry Wet-zone that has bimodal rainfall pattern with 2700 mm annual average rainfall.

  6. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Hydrology: ・Seasonal stream of the valley, contaminated with dumped waste. ・Seasonal steam is connected to perennial stream flow 500 m below the valley. ・Ground water was not encountered at the distance about 15-20 m from the seasonal stream. ・Total catchments area is about 5.8 Hectare. ・No shallow or deep wells in lower areas. ・Underneath of the soil layer, thickness is 0-3.7m. There is a impermeable very highly weathered rock follow by a bedrock.

  7. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Surrounding Area Dumping area: 2.0 ha Catchments area: 5.8 ha -Dumping site: 2.0 ha -Plantation forest: 2.9 ha (mainly above the existing Road) -Agricultural land: 0.9 ha (Mainly part of grassland/Paddocks -Seethaeliya Farm)

  8. Present Physical Environment Condition of MPLS • Disposal method: Open dumping method No environmental protection measures are taken • Waste discharged: Municipal waste, Health waste, Industrial waste, Sewage

  27. The result of geological survey 1) The upper strata above 1.0 to 3.7 metres below the ground is clay soil and weathered rock. Its permeability is about 10-5 to 10-6 cm/sec. 2) The lower strata below 1.0 to 3.7 metres below the ground is a bedrock strata which has sufficient low permeability.
