The Permit and Operations Plan were not reviewed during this inspection. 5. Mr. Moseley stated that the push walls have been reinforced with additional concrete and steel. Mr. Moseley also stated that they were looking into ways to repair the gaps between the push wall and trailer and the deflector walls and trailer. The repair of the gaps between the push walls, deflector walls, and trailers would possibly help reduce the amount of waste in the transfer trailer bay. Waste was observed on top of the push walls. Mr. Moseley stated that the waste would be removed at the end of the day. Mr. Moseley provided the Section with photographs of the waste having been removed from the push walls on October 27, 2022. 6. The condition of the tipping floor is consistent with daily operations.
