From a forum commentator:
“maintenance? like they have to maintain the volcano? lol no one is allowed out there where they are walking so its not like there’s any trash or anything to pick up. its not like this is a carnival either. there’s not going to be any huge sodas and hotdog cartons out there.

“From April 9 to 13, 2015, scientists will be using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to map what lies below the ground around Old Faithful Geyser. With a technique that’s similar to using ultrasound on a human body, the research will study shallow subsurface structures like the thickness of the hot spring deposits, fractures, vents and cavities.”

Only one reason to be out there and that is to monitor the volcano, changes in ground level to see if its rising, changes in gas emission etc. there’s nothing out there to maintain. its basically a lava field. just rocks and puddles of super heated water. and they deliberately moved the camera so you cant see what they were doing. tells me they don’t want to panic the public.” HaTTiP
