Chapter 1 Enviro™Cover System
Enviro™Cover
Enviro™ Cover (EC) is a non-reusable engineered geosynthetic alternative daily cover as
classified by ASTM D6523. It is a plastic film meeting established and regulatory criteria for
landfill daily cover.
Enviro™ Cover Deployer
Enviro™ Cover Deployer Model 800 (ECD) is the equipment that applies EC and dispenses
ballast material onto the EC panel. It is a customized self propelled unit.
The equipment and the application method developed by EPI for laying film on the working face
of a landfill.

Daily Enviro™ Cover Application
Daily Enviro™ Cover is designed as alternative daily cover for municipal landfills. The most
common gauges of Daily Enviro™ Cover film for Model 800 are 1.25 mil and 1.75 mil (32 micron
and 45 micron). Please refer to the Enviro™ Cover film specification for further details.
The earthen colour(s) of Daily Enviro™ Cover improves the aesthetic appearance of the working
face. The structural integrity of Enviro™ Cover is mechanically destroyed by subsequent
placement of new waste and by stress conditions in a landfill and will present a barrier to
leachate and methane movement for collection and processing.
Extended Daily Enviro™ Cover Application
Extended Daily Enviro™ Cover is designed for a longer cover period of up to 4 weeks.
Extended Daily Enviro™ Cover may be used on:
a. Side slopes that are not covered with waste the next day. These side slopes will remain
exposed until the operation cycle returns.
b. Working faces that could be temporarily relocated due to uncertain weather conditions.
c. Working faces planned for temporary closure due to the construction of drainage or gas
collection pipes.
d. Working face where the fill sequence continues in a lateral direction

Chapter 7 Installation of EC Roll
Remove and discard the inner cardboard sleeve from
the business end of the roll. The business end of the
roll is open and accessible. The other end of the roll
is completely sealed.
1. EC roll is packaged with multi-layers of white
plastic film and stretch film. Completely remove
the outer packaging.
2. The start of the EC is taped to the roll. Note the
direction of unwinding the roll. The film can be
unwound both from the top and from the
bottom. However, it is recommended that the
film be unwound from the bottom because the
film will be closer to the working face and less
affected by wind.
3. Back the Model 800 to the EC roll. Careful not to back onto it. Lower the top hats to the
ground to prepare ECD for loading, remove the top hat from the mandrel tube.
Note: To achieve the desired winding ensure that the business end of the roll is on the
driver side of Model 800.
4. Insert the mandrel tube into the completely unwrapped EC roll until the mandrel tube is
extended equally at both ends.
5. Re-attach the top hat to the mandrel tube. Place in safety pins.
6. Wind up the roll and the mandrel tube together by using the winches on each side of the
roller arms. Raise them evenly until fitted into the adjustable roll arms and place safety pins.
7. The system is now ready for attachment to the Enviro™Cover film clips.
Loading of Enviro™ Cover (EC) shall be handled by two attendants. The
weight of mandrel tube is approximately 60 lbs.
Figure 17: Cutting the outer roll wrapping
using EC knife only as advised. A pocket
knife may cause unintentional cutting into
the EC film Caution must be observed
when handling any knife.

Chapter 8 Ground Attendant Operational Hand Signals
By using operational hand signals, a ground attendant can work interactively with the operator
of Model 800. Model 800 operator shall act on visual or verbal communication from the ground
attendant.
A common set of operational hand signals between the ground attendant and Prime Mover
operator will facilitate the deployment operation of ECD. Examples of some commonly
accepted hand signals are illustrated in Figure 18.

The ground attendant shall be facing the Model 800 operator at all times. Every time before the
covering process, the ground attendant and the Model 800 operator shall establish a
deployment plan. As weather conditions may change, for example, these personnel must
discuss the ballast type to be used on that particular cover day, the wind direction, the working
face to be covered and percentage of EC remaining on the loaded roll.
Do not permit untrained or unsupervised personnel to go near
Enviro™ Cover Deployer (ECD) during the operation. Attendants
must be equipped with the standard landfill safety equipment
required by the landfill site.
The following list of safety attire shall be provided to the site personnel for the
operation of EC System:
a)
Safety vest with reflective material
d)
Goggles
b)
Hard hat
e)
Steel-shank and toed Safety
footwear
c)
Gloves
A two-way communication system (if available) can facilitate effective
communication between the Model 800 operator and the ground attendant. It can
contribute to the general safety and effectiveness of the cover operation. If a
communication system not available, a common set of hand signals must be
understood by both the Model 800 operator and the ground attendant.
USE EXTREME CAUTION DURING DEPLOYMENT OF EC
1. Keep yourself visible to the Model 800 operator at all times.
2. Never position yourself between the Ballast Prime Mover and Model 800
system when loading ballast.
3. Always keep a safe distance away from Model 800, allowing for the possible
sudden ECD movement during operation. Increase this distance if visibility is
poor.
4. Always ensure that the lights work on the Morooka and dispensing system are
adjusted/added to suit the needs of the cover operation in night conditions.
The Model 800 operator must be aware of location of the
ground operators at all times.
