A hazardous waste system for safely containing hazardous waste and monitoring any water or leachates that might exist in the system. The system includes several protective layers for surrounding the hazardous waste, a perimeter wall to minimize any horizontal slippage of the hazardous waste, a cap to protect the hazardous waste from the surface environment, and a support base including an impervious top surface above the ground for providing a barrier between the ground and the hazardous waste.

A hazardous waste system for safely containing hazardous waste substances comprising: a first protective layer for surrounding the hazardous waste; a liner around the protective layer, said liner being relatively impervious to water and to leachates that the hazardous waste might produce; a pervious second protective layer around said liner, the top and side portions of said second protective layer providing a pervious infiltration layer around the sides and top of the liner to permit the gravitational flow and run off of any fluids that might enter the pervious infiltration layer; a perimeter support wall means about the periphery of the second protective layer to hold in place the layers, liner, and hazardous waste and thereby minimize any horizontal slippage of the hazardous waste; a cap over the second protective layer to protect the hazardous waste from the surface environment; and a monitoring system means for providing for the gravitational flow and run off of any water and leachates on the cap, in the liner, or in the first or second protective layers; a support base under the liner, layers, and perimeter support wall means and proximate to the surface of the ground, said support base including an impervious top surface above the ground and providing a barrier between the ground and hazardous waste.
