Thu Aug 8 19:59:47 GMT 2002 PICS End Patrol COMMENT: Thu Aug 8 21:33:23 GMT 2002 Still cloudy so I went down to the junction of our cinder road and the paved NOAA driveway and cleared away the buildup of rocks on the pavement using a shovel. The Taiwan crew is parked on the cinder road right now and apparently left several new deep gouges at the bottom with their pickup truck. I talked to Russ yesterday and said I've been clearing the rocks now and then and would do it again, so I did and now I'm back. Russ wants to sell us some extra "cold patch" material that is leftover in their contract with Yamada, but if we're going to paved the road all the way up then we should not have any "cold patch" put down now - that will weaken the future hot pavement joints. They should use that "cold patch" material down near the Saddle Road probably. Russ will probably call Eric about this tomorrow. I also filled in the gouges in the cinder road.
