The following observations were observed on site this day.

Site Observations:

Upon arrival, a meeting was held with Rick, the grading foreman, who stated that soil from the blasted area was being placed on the slopes (see photo).

Equipment observed on site included:

• Three off-road dump trucks transporting soil (see photo)

• Two excavators loading material

• One Komatsu 51 PXI dozer spreading soil

• One Caterpillar 815 ride-on sheepsfoot roller compacting the placed material

No further observations were made following this inspection.
