0 <br />9JyC <br />SMITH WILLIAMS CONSULTANTS, INC. <br />SECTION 01400.2 GEOSYNTHETIC CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE (COA) PLAN <br />PART 1: INTRODUCTION <br />This plan addresses the construction quality assurance (CQA) procedures for the installation of the <br />geosynthetic components used for the construction of the valley leach facility at the Cresson Project, Teller <br />County, Colorado. This program has been developed to assure that the construction of the geosynthetic <br />components are in compliance with the project SPECIFICATIONS and to demonstrate that the regulatory <br />requirements for the construction are achieved. <br />The objective of this plan is to assure that proper materials, construction techniques, and procedures are <br />followed by the CONTRACTOR and that the intent of the design is met. This program also intends to <br />identify problems that may occur during construction and provide the means for resolution of these <br />problems. <br />This program addresses quality assurance, not quality control. This CQA Plan is independent of the <br />quality control (QC) programs conducted by the MANUFACTURERS, INSTALLERS, and <br />CONTRACTORS. The intent of the CQA Plan is to provide independent third party verification and <br />testing, to demonstrate that the INSTALLER and CONTRACTORS have met their obligations in the <br />supply and installation of geosynthetic materials according to the design, project SPECIFICATIONS, <br />contractual and regulatory requirements. Quality control is provided by the MANUFACTURERS, <br />INSTALLERS, and CONTRACTORS and refers to those actions taken by them to ensure that their <br />materials and workmanship meet the requirements of the plans and project SPECIFICATIONS. <br />PART 2.0 DESCRIPTION OF PARTIES TO CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE <br />The following section provides descriptions of the parties to this CQA plan including their responsibilities <br />and qualifications. <br />2.01 CC&V: <br />In this CQA Plan CC&V refers specifically to Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company.
