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
