Inspection Summary
On January 28, 2020 this facility was inspected for compliance. I met with Eli Self, Rex Annas and Tim Array on site.
During the inspection, the following items were noted:

some documentation since the inspection. The permittee is directed to review, update, and provide the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan during the next facility inspection.

taken.
