The Phase IV construction areas were viewed from the sub station area. Low volume collection gravel was being pushed on the primary finer of the pregnant solution area, at the time of the inspection. GOLDERS 9A/61C personnel were present. According fo Mark, a dozer operator while pushing low volume solution collection gravel, tore a portion of the liner. Liner will be repaired in accordance with the approved specifications. Back fill and grading work on Phase IV B AND C areas were also in progress.

Water level was at 8.31 feet. NO PROBLEM NOTED. Inspected the Phase I AND II pregnant solution collection areas and recorded the following readings from the High and Low volume solution collection transducers. Phase I high Volume solution collection transducer # i was recorded at 30.7, # 2 was at 33.7 and # 3 was at 33.3 LOw volume solution collet#on transducer # i was at.72 and # 2 was at .22 Phase II high volume solution collection transducer # 4 was recorded at 25.4, # 5 was at 21.1 and # 6 was at 25.5 Low volume solution collection transducer # 1 was recorded at ,56 and # 2 was at.21 (ALL READINGS ARE IN FEET OF HYDROSTATIC HEAD) Inspected the under drain area.
