Notes
Follow-up inspection to monitor Outfall 001 which has has intermittent total suspended solids (TSS) and iron exceedances since November 2020. At the time of inspection there were no signs of pond or BMP maintenance having been performed at the facility, nor were there signs of chemical treatment utilization. The pond at Outfall 001 is heavily inundated with vegetation. At the last inspection by the Division on June 8, 2021 this facility was being used as a staging area for logging operations. Logging equipment has now been removed from the facility.
