SECTION 01400.2 GEOSYNTHETIC CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE (CQA) PLAN
1. PART 1: INTRODUCTION
This plan addresses the construction quality assurance (CQA) procedures for the installation of
the geosynthetic components used for the construction of the valley leach facility at the
Cresson Project, Teller County, Colorado. This program has been developed to assure that
the construction of the geosynthetic 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
program also intends to identify problems that may occur during construction and provide the
means for resolution of these problems.
This program addresses quality assurance, not quality control. This CQA Plan is
independent of the quality control (QC) programs conducted by the MANUFACTURERS,
INSTALLERS, and CONTRACTORS. The intent of the CQA Plan is to provide independent third
party verification and testing, to demonstrate that the INSTALLER and CONTRACTORS have
met their obligations in the supply and installation of geosynthetic materials according to the
design, project SPECIFICATIONS, contractual and regulatory requirements. Quality control is
provided by the MANUFACTURERS, INSTALLERS, and CONTRACTORS and refers to those
actions taken by them to ensure that their materials and workmanship meet the
requirements of the plans and project SPECIFICATIONS.
