Because the original project was altered from constructing one 9.5‐acre anaerobic cell to constructing two anaero

occupying

6‐acres and one occupying 3.5‐acres, waste placement area was lost in the valley separating the two a

resulted in the installation of fewer sensors over the 9.5‐acre area than initially proposed.
