Twenty-four containers with 406,840 lbs of waste have been shipped off-site as of the close of last week, Friday, May 17th.
As part of the building demolition, shipment of waste materials from the building contents for off-site disposal will begin the week of May 6, 2013, in accordance with the EPA approved Phase 1 Construction Submittal. A maximum of six trucks per weekday will depart from the site, avoiding rush hours and school bus hours. Removal of the building contents is scheduled to continue through the end of 2013.
CREW / 2229 Main St. Committee met with members of the project team on site at NMI on Wednesday, April 10, 2013.
Phase 1 Construction Submittal was approved 21MAR2013.
Grading activities continued during February, as well as excavation for truck scale foundation, despite snow accumulations. During major snowfall events on February 10th, March 8th, and March 19th, snow and ice were removed from driveways, parking lots, sidewalks, and fire hydrants. This allowed for ready access for emergency vehicles and access and egress from buildings as needed. The Truck Scale installation was completed on March 15, 2013.
Continued radiological screening of Laboratory Package Material in preparation for disposal.
