A water tank truck was observed spraying down access roads. 9) Capped Surfaces - All were in fairly good condition and covered with vegetative growth. Observed three personnel inspecting for surface erosion along Modules FU -4, FU -5. Recent rains have caused some erosion conditions to occur. The LEA explained the issuance of prior Areas of Concern for this, and stated they were not elevated to a Violation, because the operator could not repair the condition until surface conditions were stabilized (i.e.) with dryer weather. Observed black plastic tarps over areas where erosion had occurred. 10) Sedimentation Pond #2 and Leachate impoundment Pond —The sedimentation pond was dry. The leachate impoundment pond was being aerated to control odors and vectors.
