the transfer trailer bays. Continue to ensure that the windblown waste is removed from the fencing at the end
of the operating day.
6. The curbing that had been installed along the transfer trailer loading bay has become damaged. Mr. Pernell stated
that the curbing had not properly installed. Mr. Pernell stated that he was looking at different curb or wall options
which would increase durability and prevent damage. Please provide the Section with photographs of the curbing
repair once it has been completed.
7. Some waste was observed within the transfer trailer bays. The transfer trailer bays are cleaned out between trailer
loads and at the end of the day. Continue to remove waste from the transfer trailer bays as needed throughout
the day and at the end of the day.

the tipping floor at the end of the operating day. The tipping floor is also washed at the end of the operating day.

possible leachate is contained within the leachate collection system.
