Phase Nc Summary No. 15 Page 2 043-2170 <br />Ames continued excavation of the Phase IVc Anchor trench on the eastern section of the VLF. Ames <br />excavated approximately 150 feet of anchor trench in preparation of geomembrane installation during <br />this reporting period. <br />Ames continued production of bentonite-amended SLF at the screen plant and pug mill located above <br />the Ames materials yazd. Ames also continued producfion of Drain Cover Fill (DCF) material at the <br />screen plant by the secondary crusher. <br />Poly-Flex continued deployment of 80-mil single-sided textured LLDPE geomembrane in the Phase <br />IVc OSA. Geomembrane was installed in the Phase IVc OSA on the south facing slope of Raven Hill <br />downward to the Phase IVb/IVc tie-in. Poly-Flex deployed 80-mil single-sided textured LLDPE <br />geomembrane over an azea of approximately 155,038 square feet in the Phase IVc OSA during this <br />reporting period. Geomembrane panels C-658 through C-705 were deployed, seamed, and tested by <br />Poly-Flex. Destructive fusion and extrusion seam samples DFc-235 through DFc-251 and DXc-22 <br />through DXc-25 were mazked and removed. Destructive fusion and extrusion seam peel and sheaz <br />testing on samples DFc-214 through DFc-224, DFc-227 through DFc-235 and DXc-22 through DXc-25 <br />were performed and passed per project specification. <br />Ames continued hauling, placement and grading of DCF material into the Phase Nc OSA in the central <br />and eastern sections of the VLF, Raven Hill area. Ames placed DCF material and High Volume <br />Solution Collection (HVSC) piping per the project plans onto approved geomembrane panels. <br />A map of the area worked during this reporting period is provided in Attachment C. <br />Field Monitoring and Testing Activities <br />Golder observed construction activities associated with Phase fVc earthworks. All constmction <br />materials and soil materials placed were verified as suitable, and construction methods were in <br />accordance with project specifications. <br />Golder observed the excavaton and construction of the LDT in the Phase fVc VLF for trench <br />dimensions (1' wide by 1' deep), slope, and materials used. <br />Golder observed excavation of the Phase IVc anchor trench for proper location, dimension (2' wide by <br />3' deep) and maintenance prior to geomembrane deployment. Anchor trench excavation met or <br />exceeded the requirements of the specification. <br />Golder observed placement, compaction, and moisture conditioning of SLF in the Phase IVc OSA for <br />subgrade prepazation, thickness, compaction, moisture-content, and materials used. The Golder CQA <br />Earthworks Monitor performed thirteen nuclear moisture-density tests (SLNc-189 throw SLNc-201) <br />and performed three nucleaz moisture-density retests on SLF that required reworking (SLNc-195a, <br />SLNc-196a, and SLNc-197a).
