3.2.4 Drainage Pipe Outflow Monitoring
Recommendation:
 
The outflow of the drainage pipes extending under the primary ash basins to the river should be monitored for turbidity in the discharge, which would be indicative of soil entrance into the pipes through leaks under the basin. The appearance of turbidity would make it advisable to perform a TV camera inspection of the pipe to determine if the leak or leaks area a threat.
