This section hasn't been proof-listened yet but here are the technical notes. Could you resolve the technical issues and then re-upload the file before prooflistening?

• The volume of this track is 71.36dB. LV requires the overall volume for the track (measured by ReplayGain - you can try this tool if you want to check the volume) to be between 86-92dB (with 89dB being the ideal). The easiest way to fix this automatically is to use the 'Loudness Normalization' effect (set to -19LUFS in 'perceived loudness' mode) in recent versions of Audacity before exporting the track as an MP3. If you use RMS normalization, set it to -21dB. Another way to fix it would be to use the Amplify effect set to 18dB. Since the volume is so low, amplifying it sufficiently would increase the background noise a lot. Did you accidentally have the microphone slider lower than intended or were you further from the microphone than you should be?
• We need 0.75 seconds of silence at the start of each Librivox track and 5 seconds at the end (or as close as you can make it). Currently, it's about 3.9 at the start and about 1 at the end.

Hello,
I have corrected the two issues....this is my "first" recording, so I am not sure exactly what I was doing.

Thank you for your assistance.

No worries. You're doing great so far. It can take a little while to get the hang of it. You fixed almost all of InTheDesert's technical notes successfully

(I am the dedicated proof listener by the way if you are wondering who I am )

I have two PL notes for your section:

I think you accidentally uploaded a file without the beginning silence edited down. Currently there are 14 seconds of silence at the beginning. Could you please cut that down to between .5-1 second of silence?

11:40-11:43 There is a long stretch of silence with just click sounds. Could you delete some of those seconds so that there is not a long pause there?
