SECTION 01400.1 EARTHWORKS CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE (COA) PLAN
PART 1: INTRODUCTION
This plan addresses the construction quality assurance (CQA) procedures for the installation of the earthworks
(soils) components of the valley leach facility at the Cresson Project, Teller County, Colorado. This program
has been developed to assure that the construction of the soil components are in compliance with the project
SPECIFICATIONS and to demonstrate that the regulatory requirements for the construction are achieved.
The objective of this plan is to assure that proper materials, construction techniques, and procedures are
followed by the CONTRACTOR and that the intent of the design is met. This plan also provides the means
for resolution of problems that may occur during construction.
This plan addresses quality assurance, not quality control. This CQA Plan is independent of the quality control
(QC) programs conducted by CONTRACTOR. The intent of the CQA Plan is to provide independent third
party verification and testing, to demonstrate that the CONTRACTOR has met its obligations in the supply
and installation of earthwork (soils) materials according to the design, project SPECIFICATIONS, contractual,
and regulatory requirements. Quality control is provided by CONTRACTOR and refers to those actions
taken by the CONTRACTOR to ensure that materials and workmanship meet the requirements of the
DRAWINGS and SPECIFICATIONS.
