SWMU B-1

0

 

SWMU B-2

5

Anomalies A and B correspond to two linear depressions in the surface.  Anomaly C corresponds to a small mound on the surface.  Anomalies D and E do not correspond to any surface features.  All five anomalies validated by EM and Pulse GPS.

SWMU B-3

2

EM readings indicate both locations contain an abundance of buried metal; pulse GPR indicate base of a trench 10 to 12 feet deep in these areas.

SWMU B-4

6

Two of the anomalies detected with EM were detected with Pulse GPR to be three 10- to 12-foot-deep trenches 20 feet wide.

SWMU O-1

1

Area inside former pond appears to be filled with clay soil; no buried metal was detected.

1

Unexplained 1.5-inch diameter metal pipe discovered.

Well 16 West

2

Two anomalies that do not correspond to any surface features/known power lines.

Well 16 East

1

May be caused by an overhead power line or subsurface disturbance.

Gate 6

2

Anomaly A is subtle and is not related to known surface/subsurface features.  Anomaly B is larger and may be related to additional underground metal piping or fragments.

Salado Creek

4

Anomaly A may be associated with the trash pile present in the same area.  Anomalies B, C, and D may be additional trenches due to their proximity to other trenches.
