No comments on minutes of meeting of August 16, 2001.
2. Recent Test Pit results and A�.)nroach to Address Waste Beyond Current Limits
Tom Maher indicated that the test pits dug on August 21, 2001, and interpreted by Jim
Mulligan, show approximately 4,000 cu. yds. of waste beyond the currently staked limit of waste
on the northern portion of the east half of the landfill. Tom wants to remove this waste, relandfill
it, fill same area with clean material and thus leave the limit of waste where it presently is .staked.
As for the linger of waste extending under the gas venting material stockpile, ' Dave Zuhoski
believes that it does not extend very. far under the stockpile. Carl Fritz brought up the issue of
possible soil contamination under the waste and Tom Maher indicated he would discuss this with
Igor Sikiric when he returns from vacation. All agreed to call this new waste area Waste
Excavation Area No. 3. It also was agreed that' it would be left to Bob 'ferry as to when this
waste would be relandfilled.

As for the waste discovered by test pit on the south end of the east half of the landfill,
near the proposed C&D holding area, Tom Maher questioned the cost-effectiveness of removing
the small amount fourid. Carl Fritz thought it should be removed or capped, but suggested that
Tom discuss this with Tony Cava to reach resolution. Torn said he ovill send a letter to Tony
-with an approach to the problem. Bob Terry asked if D&B still is working on the redesign of the
Swale in this satne area and Tom Maher said it will be completed shortly.
2. Permanent Road Over Landfill to 17 -Acre Site
Jim Bunchuck said he expects to get firm direction from the Town Board on whether to
go ahead with this road by Tuesday, August 28, 2001, Bob Terry agreed to give Jinn a cost
estimate for a 30 -fool wide road by Monday, August 27, in time for the meeting Jim will have
with the Town Board.
3. Power to the Engineer's and Contractor's Trailers
Bob Terry has been in. contact with LIPA and LIPA has made a Feld. inspection, but no
firm date given on the actual hook-up. (Note: Bob Terry was informed by LIPA shortly after
thu; progress meeting that the hook-up would occur that day, August 23.)
4. Status of 17 -Acre Loam
H2M is to inform Jim Bunctuck of how much loam will be used to construct the berm on
the 17 -acre parcel. ']Com. Mahcr requested that loam be used only for daily cover, as mix for
wood chips and as fill for Waste Excavation Area No. 1. No loam on landfill otherwise. Bob
Terry inquired as to what the calculated cut volume was for the regrading in the northeast portion
of the borrow pit which no longer will be done. Dave Glass remembered it to be about 30,000

>. Waste Excavation Area No. 1
ID:51'63848675 PAGE 4/5
Jim Bunchuck has notified the homeowners adjacent to this arca that work. is
commencing- Waste is to be excavated on the homeo Amors' side of the fence if necessary.
Loam could be used as fill after the waste excavation since this is outside the "exclusion area.
6. Water for Trust. Control on 17 -Acre Parcel
Bob Teary has obtained a price to rent a second water tank as an option. He also is
awaiting response from Suffolk County Water Authority as a second option. Bob is hoping that
if the weather cooperates, he may not need additional dust control when loam excavation
resumes on the parcel.
7. Drums on To -of Berm in Borrow 1PitlPit
Tom Maher asked if these drums had been removed. They have not. Dave Zuhoski
indicated the Town personnel would remove them.
9. Use of Loam for Final Subgrade Cover
Tom Maher wanted to explore this possibility. Bob Terry indicated that he feels he is not
contractually responsible for meeting the compaction requirement in the specifications if 10am is
used for this purpose, and that loam could be a major problem to work on once it becomes wet.
Tom Maher then indicated that 6 inches of sand be used rather than loam.
10. Chane Order
A new change order (No. 2) was drafted by D&B for review by Jim Bunchuck. This
change order is to cover the test holes recently excavated. Bob Terry indicated that he will need
another change order to cover Handling of the C&1] which has been accepted at the landfill after
the Initial Survey was completed.

The Town is developing a new pond new the information booth by Greenport and has
discovered that pesticide contaminated soil must be removed from the site. Jamie Richter has
asked if the soil could be landfilled, Bob Temy agreed to review the site and develop a cost
proposal to excavate, haul and place the soil on the Iandfill. It is estimated that 6,500 ou.yds. of
contaminated soil is involved.

the borrow pit.
+ Bob Terry said the permanent chain link fencing is on hold until the Town resolves
issues of Corraxini encroachment on Town property.
