Subgrade was <br /> approved and moisture conditioned (when required) prior to SLF placement. SLF material was <br /> hauled to the Phase 1 VLF from the Joe Dandy stockpile using CAT 740 haul trucks. The material <br /> was then spread by low ground pressure CAT dozers equipped with GPS. Moisture conditioning <br /> of SLF material was performed in place using a tandem-axel water truck, and compaction was <br /> achieved using a 10-ton vibratory smooth drum compactor. Moisture content verification, <br /> nuclear density testing, and depth verification were performed, with results meeting the <br /> required project technical specifications, prior to accepting the surface for geomembrane <br /> installation. All test locations were surveyed by Ames. <br /> 1.6 Drain Cover Fill (DCF) <br /> Drain Cover Fill (DCF) placement was performed in the areas shown on Figure 4. CAT 740 haul <br /> trucks hauled DCF from the stockpile to the Phase 1 VLF. The DCF was placed in a 2-foot lift on <br /> previously approved geomembrane by low ground pressure CAT dozers. Haul routes consisted <br /> of 4-foot lifts that will be spread into 2-foot lifts at a later date. Ames' laborers were present <br /> during placement to assist in removing debris/sandbags, installing high volumes solution <br /> collection piping, and ensuring that the lift thickness was correct.
