1 Liddell Coal - Monthly Environmental Summary February. Dust Gauges Table : Dust Deposition Results Jan to Feb ( Days) Site Monthly Insoluble Solids (g/m.month) Monthly Ash Residue (g/m.month) Monthly Combustible Matter (g/m.month) Monthly Ash Residue/ Insoluble Solids (%) Month Rolling Average Insoluble Solids (g/m.month) D**.... D**.... Notes: ** Gauges D and D are located on privately owned land and are the only gauges that have consent criteria. Insoluble Solids results marked with a c indicate an excessively contaminated gauge and are not included in the project average. Contamination can include bird droppings, vegetation (such as plant matter, algae, pollen and seeds) and insects. N/A = Not Available.
