June 2: Exceedances occurred at stations 3, 5, and 5, likely due to a combination of wind over disturbed hillsides, grading and utility installation operations occurring near and upwind of the stations. Contractors were made aware of the exceedances and additional water was added throughout these areas with water additives.

 

June 3: An exceedance occurred at station 5, due to clean up operations occurring near and upwind. Contractor was made aware of the exceedance and additional water was added throughout the area and a vacuum sweeper was added to the clean- up crew.

 

June 4: An exceedance occurred at station 4, likely due to grading operations occurring near and upwind of this station. Grading contractors were made aware of the exceedance and additional water was added throughout the site and around grading operations.

 

June 5: Exceedances occurred at stations 4 and 5, due to a combination of wind over disturbed hillsides, and grading operations occurring near and upwind of these stations. Grading contractors were made aware of the exceedances and additional water will be added around grading operations on the disturbed hillsides that are difficult to water regularly.

 

June 6: An exceedance occurred at station 4, likely due to utility and grading operations occurring near this station. Grading contractors were made aware of the exceedance and additional water was added throughout the site and around grading operations.
