<br /> Environmental & EngineeringWeiland, Inc.W I <br />excavation dry and as such is thought to be diverting the majority of the groundwater <br />around Cell 2A. <br />9. The two houses along the western permit boundary are within 200 feet of the clay lined <br />pond. The closest piezometer monitoring groundwater levels is more than 1500 feet to <br />the east. Two piezometers should be installed on the western side of Pond 2A in the <br />vicinity of these homes. The piezometers should be up-gradient and down-gradient of <br />the pond to measure the lined pond’s effect on the groundwater. These wells should be <br />monitored and reported on the same schedule as the current water monitoring plan. <br />Since a perimeter drain has been installed and is functional, we request the Division <br />reconsider the need for groundwater monitoring in this area. <br />6.4.19 EXHIBIT S - Permanent Man-made Structures - <br />10.
