    All Requests Received June 1, 2017 ‐ June 30, 2017 Tracking Number Requester Name Organization Received Date Status Description We request the following information for work performed by Wastren under contract number EPS71508 (Madison County Mines). 1. Square Footage excavated for each property for the entire contract. 2. The depth of material excavated from each property for the entire contract. Typically this information is available in a spread sheet format. If a spreadsheet is available that includes the requested information, that will suffice for this request.

The information we're looking for covers a two year span (2015 & 2016).
