V) VLF Geosynthetics Exposure of the Phase IVa geomembrane at the northeast corner of the facility (approximate stations G13 +00 to G15 +00) and Phase IVc geomembrane at the old LOB site continued using a John Deere 35D excavator. The bulk of the excavation was performed using a CAT 375 excavator. This was performed to re- certify the liner in this area. An AMEC representative was present at all times during the exposure.
