See POLREP #1 for site description and background information.
Grade reduction of the leading edge and western toe of the waste field continues during this reporting period. Additional funding through a Ceiling Increase and Change of Scope Action Memorandum was approved on December 16th. The approved funding will support the costs necessary to complete construction of diversion drainage channels through and around the site and install a clay and vegetative cap. These measures were designed to ultimately control leachate run-off from the waste field and stabilize the conditions at the site. After transfer of the site to the Remedial Branch the site controls will allow time to design and implement a long-term remedy for the site.
Jan 3: ERRS and EPA remobed to Site after year-end holiday demobe. Work continues with focus on grade and drainage adjustment.
Jan 5: ERRS ships off-site the tire stockpile. During excavation and grading tires were recovered that were part of the site associated with a C&D landfill.
Jan 6: ERRS conducts a dye test with TDEC to determine subsurface water flow.
Jan 10 thru 12: Site shut-down due to snow & ice.
START will remobilize to Site on Jan 18, 2010.
Continue grading and construction of diversion drainage on the south and north boundaries of the waste pile infill.
Alternate work and tasks are planned if weather postpones heavy equipment work on Site.
