Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Staff from the MRO visited the former SKF facility. Onsite recovery well examined at the time of the
inspection appeared to be in overall good condition but would need minor repairs if the system was to
become operational again. Onsite monitoring wells, at the time of the inspection, were properly
secured. This system was shut down in 2008 and the system has been placed into an inoperative
state. Except for the removal of system plumbing, the primary components of the system are present.
As the system has been inactive for almost ten years, a good deal of work would be required to place
the system back into an operational state should the permittee ever wish to reactivate the system.
