The <br />material is trucked-in to the Hotchkiss site on an <br />infrequent basis for dsposal. There was no activity at the <br />site at the time of the inspection. <br />Condition of the Site - The overall site condition has not <br />changed since the preliminary inspection approximately one <br />year ago. There has not been any topsoil removal and none <br />of the waste has been covered. <br />The site appears to be shaped so that runoff cannot escape <br />from the unreclaimed area. There were no visible signs of <br />slope instability or signs of problems that could create a <br />public health hazard. <br />The compaction of the gob was not checked at this time <br />because the soil had a high moisture content from recent <br />precipitation. Compaction tests on any new disposed <br />material or cover will be run during the next inspection. <br />:.. , <br />
