IV. Inspector Comments

V. PHOTOGRAPHS

Photo 1: Construction trailer present on the property facing west.

The inspection was performed to determine if site work had started at the property while
performing other Site Inspections in the area. Construction activities at the site had not
yet begun, nor had construction equipment or materials been staged on-site. As noted
within the Current Exposure to Public/Public Risk section, there were two, possibly three
camping type tents present on the property (Photos 4 and 5). No inhabitants were seen
while performing the Site Inspection, and no attempt was made to contact potential
residents.
