Additional corrective actions taken include proper installation of silt fence, seed/ matted top of slope, coir matting on

Joel,
We're reporting a silt loss at Permit Site 38 on the 1-485 project. Attached are pictures of operations leading up to and
including site conditions today. As Helen states below silt fence was installed as of last Friday, prior to our rain
events. She's going back to get some pictures of the silt fence area as Thomas requested, which Helen will reply with to
this message. Also, as soon as we get bucket counts for the clean up we will report that as well.

Kevin &Thomas,
Here is what I'm aware of:
Another Blythe crew graded over PS#38 last week ( inspector was onsite). On March 22nd, please see attached pictures,
wattles were installed. GML was supposed to seed Thursday, but sent a text that morning they were not coming until
early this week.
By Friday silt fence had also been installed.
Helen.

Helen/Buddy,
What did the silt fence look like above the wattles? Do you have any pictures of where the actual silt fence breached or
was undermined/overtopped? Do we have 57 stone on the hardware cloth outlets? Or were we using wattles until 57
stone could be installed? I cannot get out on site till tomorrow sometime. If we are saying we lost more than 5 gallons in
the JS then we need to go ahead and notify Joel.
Thanks
Thomas

Helen/Buddy,
Why do we have wattles behind the silt fence? Have we identified where the silt is coming through as there appears to
be a trail in line with the pipe not at the hardware cloth outlet.

Thomas,
We have lost sediment on the newly filled slope above PS# 38, Sta. 807+00-810+00/Lt. Buddy and his crew are onsite at
this time for removal and repairs.
Buddy, please reply with 5 gallon bucket count when repairs are finished.
Thank you,
Helen.
