ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: 01 - This inspection was conducted to see progress made on corrective actions from the April 17, 2020 inspection. 02 - Progress has been made on the cover placement as noted on the April 17, 2020 inspection report. Still needs some improvement on repairs on bare areas and gas line installation areas. 03 - The windblown litter issue appears to be resolved during this inspection.
04 - Work is still being conducted on areas which will not have additional wastes placed on them for 12 months or more, but where final termination of disposal operations has not occurred, shall be covered with a minimum of one foot of intermediate cover. 05 - Leachate tank area looks good and tanks have adequate storage available. 06 - Facility burns off landfill gas. The system appears to be working correctly looking at the flares.

A copy of the well information requirements has been emailed to Matt Einsmann and Michael Kavanugh. 08 - All the roads were maintained and constructed of all-weather material. 09 - Records were not reviewed during this inspection due to the Covid-19.

This needs to also be repaired ASAP. 11 - The fencing caught the waste but it needs to be collected and put back into the cell and covered with 6 inches of cover material. 12 - The Disaster Debris Site (DS08-001) area was evaluated for additional acres added to this existing TDDS and to get the GPS coordinates.
