<br />MS. Alana Scott <br />November 7, 1994 <br />Page 2 <br />STEEPEN ROBERTSON AND KIRSTEN <br />Following inspection of the trenches, the southern half of the azea fn which the crack was observed was <br />excavated to a depth of approximately 7 ft. Material excavated was stockpiled neazby for reconstructing <br />the raise. <br />October 27. 1994 <br />The contractor, SLV, continued to excavate the cracked portion of the raise fill apd completed its <br />removal. The final excavation comprised removing half of the raise to a depth of approximately 7 ft over <br />a length of 125 ft and completely removed the observed cracked portions to that depth. The base of the <br />excavation was compacted by equipment traffic to meet the original fill placement specifications <br />(minimtun density of 85% of maximum dry density by ASTM D~98). The excavatedlfill material was <br />replaced fn 1 ft lifts and compacted with equipment traffic. By the end of the shift, SLV has completed <br />4 lifts of fill replacement with no failing density testing results (see enclosed field density test summary). <br />October 28. 1994 <br />SLV continued and completed fill replacement with no failing density testing results. A slight deficiency <br />in fill volume resulted in a localized low spot near the southern end of the repair. Battle Mountain is to <br />grade this portion of the dam crest to level irregulazities and place material in the low~spot to bring to <br />grade. This azea will be compacted with equipment traffic to complete the repair work. <br />Conclusions <br />The September 1 storm event created localized cracking of t}te embankment raise to a maximum observed <br />depth of 5 to 6 ft. The azea of cracked fill was completely excavated and recompaded to eliminate any <br />associated canes of weakness within the fill. With ponding of rainwater on the raise crest now <br />eliminated, there should be no further problems with the raise. <br />If you should have any questions or comments regarding this issue, please feel free to give me a call. <br />Sincerely, <br />STEEPEN ROBERTSON AND IQRSTEN (U.S.), INC. <br />DSH:Ip <br />Enclosure <br /> <br />Colorado P.E. 26076 <br />
