On March 26, 2004, this LEA conducted routine inspection and noted that the <br /> concentration of methane gas in the gas monitoring probes GP-8 (which , <br /> replaces GP-3)and GP-9 (which replaces GP-2), both of which were located <br /> near the west boundary,was 44%and 42%, respectively. This was documented <br /> under the violation of Explosive Gases Control, Section 20919.5 of 27CCR. <br /> XXIV. On April 20,2004, this LEA measured the gas concentration in the impacted <br /> gas probes to determine the facility compliance status with the Amended Notice <br /> and Order 03-01, dated February 2, 2004. The concentration of methane gas in <br /> GP-8 and GP-9 was 45% and 47%,respectively. <br /> XXV.
