Interesting tidbits from the ash recovery project weekly report:

--Approval to dispose ash offsite not yet received. If not received by June 16th, the schedule will be negatively impacted.

--Received regulatory approval to increase storage height of ash in the ash processing area to 15 feet.

--Eleven seeps have been identified along Dike C in the area where trees were cleared. The seeps are small and no flow is visible. A TVA engineer from Chattanooga and Stantec looked at the dike on Monday and provided a recommendation for daily monitoring. Seeps are typical with dikes. TVA soil engineers looked at the area on Wednesday and came to the same recommendation of monitoring.

See attached file for the complete report.
