No activities were in progress; however, evidence of past site subsurface explorations, site surveying (horizontal and vertical controls) and abandoned meteorological facilities were noticed. The on-site quarry where recent excavations and sampling of aggregate for concrete testing took place was examined.

Within the above areas of inspection, no items of noncompliance or devaitions were identified.
