C• <br />part of reclamation; this will further increase the stability <br />of the fill. <br />Monitoring of inclinometer I-2 indicates that the existing <br />fill configuration is stable on the gently sloping foundation <br />which underlies much of the Crushing and Screening Level Fill. <br />Continued displacements shown by inclinometer I-1 indicate that <br />downslope movement is possible when the fill configuration is <br />unfavorable, such as when the foundation is inclined or the <br />fill is surcharged. Our stability analyses and the monitoring <br />results from inclinometer I-2 confirm the stability of the <br />reclaimed fill configuration. <br />9.0 WAREHOUSE LEVEL FILL (ZONE 1-B) <br />~• <br />4.1 Monitoring Results <br />Inclinometer I-3, located within the Warehouse Level Fill, <br />shows significant downslope deflections occurring over an <br />interval of 46 to 50 feet. This depth corresponds to the top of <br />bedrock. This indicates that the fill is creeping downslope <br />along the original ground surface, which is fairly steeply <br />inclined at this location. The rate of maximum displacement has <br />been relatively small and uniform, typically ranging between <br />0.1 and 0.2 inches per month. Total displacements across the <br />shear plane are on the order of one inch. No water pressure has <br />been measured at this location. <br />9.2 Impact on Reclamation <br />Reclamation of the Warehouse Level Fill will consist of <br />flattening the existing fill outslope (Zone 1-B), which is <br />at an angle of 33 to 38 degrees (again close to the angle of <br />repose), to a 2(H) 1(V) slope. Suitable surface drainage and <br />revegetation will be included as part of the reclamation. <br />Reducing the slope angle during reclamation will increase <br />the stability of this fill. This will certainly reduce, and <br />probably eliminate, the downslope creep. Since the current rate <br />of downslope creep is small, any reduction in this rate should <br />ensure acceptable stability of the reclaimed fill. <br />5.0 FAN LEVEL FILL (ZONE 1-D) <br />~~. <br />5.1 Monitoring Results <br />The Fan Level Fill shows significant downslope <br />deformations above a depth of 42 feet. This corresponds to the <br />base of the fill. The fill consists of a relatively thin sliver <br />placed on an inclined natural ground surface at this location. <br />c[oHwco cor+w~nN~, iHC. <br />
