MA DEP/City of Northampton Personnel Site Visits: Larry Hanson, DEP. Larry will be providing coverage until Charlie Cline returns.
Comments: Visit from Larry Hanson was positive. He was happy with the work being performed and has worked with Bates in the past so is comfortable. Discussed with Larry the potential
that the
final grades at the highest point of the landfill will be lower than indicated on the plans. Larry confirmed that as long as required slopes are met that is not an issue.
