Closure Evaluation System (CES) version 1. 1 (5 1/4 inch) (for microcomputers). Software
The Closure Evaluation System (CES) is a decision support tool designed to serve as a checklist for identifying potential design problems in landfill closures. The system is comprised of three component systems designed to provide advice about closure of hazardous waste land disposal sites. The Vegetative Cover Evaluation System advises whether a proposed vegetation will meet basic EPA criteria such as drought resistance, protection against erosion, and minimum continued maintenance. It confirms that the planting/seeding plan is consistent with horticulture practices and that the selected plant species is compatible with regional climate characteristics. The Final Cover Evaluation System advises whether a proposed final cover design includes the minimum components required by EPA, whether the system will function as required by EPA, and if it adheres to basic construction principles for RCRA caps as outlined in EPA technical resource documents. The Leachate Collection Evolution System advises whether a proposed leachate collection design will perform satisfactorily. It performs a number of calculations intended to expose potential design flaws. Since each component is a 'stand alone' system, you can work with one component during a CES consultation or work with all three components in any order.
