"There’s nothing like the smell of decomposing solid waste at the break of dawn." The crew preparing the rig to begin the day’s drilling of methane gas extraction wells . The extraction wells were tied into the landfill’s existing system by means of 4” HDPE pipe buried in the topsoil.
Wick Points installed around a Jacking Pit and Receiving Pit for a Jack & Bore Operation under existing railroad tracks. In an effort to keep operating costs down, the wick points on the Receiving Pit were run under the railroad tracks and hooked up to the pump that was on the Push Pit. Due to union requirements, a set of Operating Engineers would be required on both sides if a pump was placed into service on the Receiving Pit. Griffin kept dewatering costs lower than other dewatering contractors.

Men At Work . Unit Block . M Street, SE . WDC . Saturday morning, 26 November 2005
While having breakfast with Richard at McDonald in SW at the corner of South Capitol and I Streets I'd read an article in December 2005 isssue of The Southwester www.swdc.org pertaining to the 23 October 2005 dedication of the Peace Memorial Garden which on 1 October, located at the corner of M and South Capitol Streets in SW, I had unknowingly photographed two Men At Work www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/54733736/in/photostream/ who, at the time, were preparing the soil for the future garden.
When Richard mentioned that he was going outside, of McDonalds, to the patio to take a smoke and would return, inside, in a few mintues to continue reading the paper I'd say that I would head back home ... and take some pictures ... along the way!
Wanting to photograph the newly installed Peace Memorial Garden I'd walk along Eye, turn right unto First Street and walk toward M Street. Since in September 2005 I had begun photographing "Men At Work" www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/31594129/in/set-705008/ in the Unit Block of M Street and so as to add a few more images to that collection www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/sets/705008/ I would take this series of images before heading over to the SW Peace Memorial Garden, which is just a block up the street.
