Inspection Results Summary:
Site tidy and in good order, no significant signs of ‘blown away’ waste against northern boundary fence. Site actively seeking to ensure waste does not get blown away, fencing noted to the north-eastern corner of eastern cell.
Haul road clear and well maintained.
Landfill was currently taking place in the eastern cell, given the good weather, where it was noted that the surcharging on the section being worked was near the necessary level for restoration. It is anticipated (as advised by KC) that in due course, either this or next year, the next phase of the revision to the pre-settlement contours will take place.
