Ms. Christina Carbajal May 22, 2006 Page 4 Also, on April 4, 11 and 25, 2006, SCS continued monitoring/adjustment to, recently installed by others, LFG Extraction Well Nos. FOFU-0304- Well, FOFU-04-06 through FOFU-04-12, FOFU- HCOI, FOFU-04-LCR, FOFU-05-06 and FOFU-05HC1 in attempts to help decrease the observed elevated methane gas concentrations detected at GP-11 and GP-12 as directed by the client. SCS will continue to adjust wells as directed by Allied personnel. Finally, during this reporting period, temperatures at LFG extraction wells were monitored and observed to range from 49 to 92 degrees Fahrenheit(see Table 2). These temperatures are considered to be in the low to normal range for anaerobic decomposition. SCS will continue to test LFG temperatures at each extraction well on a monthly basis in order to develop a database. This additional information should provide a better understanding of subsurface conditions at the site. LFG Collection System Visual observation of the LFG collection system is conducted twice per month. During these visits, observations are made to ensure no pipe breakages have occurred and condensate drain sumps remain functional. Minor repairs are completed as required. On April 4, 11, 21 and 25, 2006, SCS performed monitoring of all accessible LFG condensate sumps defined as ARTP-1 through 7 and FOTP-8 through 19 and recorded the liquid level control pump cycle counters (see Table 3). In addition, during pervious reporting periods, SCS observed and repaired several slight air supply and/or liquid leaks at several LFG condensate sumps. As requested by the Client, SCS has prepared a proposal dated August 5, 2004, and recommends that the existing air and condensate connections be modified to decrease the potential for future separations/air leaks. Finally, SCS routinely conducts a pressure drop survey(i.e., measurement of main pipeline pressure at various points throughout the LFG collection system). The results of this survey indicated that no major restrictions within the LFG collection system currently exist and all accessible extraction wells are receiving adequate vacuum. LFG Blower/Flare Station (BFS) Visual observations and testing of the LFG BFS was conducted on April 1, 4, 8, 11, 21 and 27, 2006. During these visits, operating parameters are monitored and mechanical and electrical components are checked for workability. Throughout the reporting period, the BFS was set to operate continuously. BFS data is shown in Table 4.
