APA <br />ame& <br />Backfilling of the PSSA anchor trench continued between stations G3+50 (+/-) and G6+00 (+/-). <br />The anchor trench was backfilled using a John Deere 35D excavator, a CAT skid steer loader, and <br />laborers. Structural fill (ore) was moisture conditioned using a tandem axel water truck and placed <br />in the trench in one-foot compacted lifts. Compaction was achieved using a vibratory plate <br />compactor. <br />C) Geomembrane Acceptance <br />1) VLF <br />No geomembrane was accepted during the week (see Figure 4 for previous geomembrane <br />acceptance). <br />D) Geomembrane Delivery <br />1) VLF <br />Three loads (33 rolls) of 80mi1 LLDPE single sided textured geomembrane rolls were delivered to <br />site during the shift. The loads were delivered on a flat bed truck in good condition. The rolls were <br />unloaded using a CAT 950 front-end loader with forks attached. The geomembrane was placed on <br />three pieces of HDPE pipe, stacked two rolls high. An AMEC field representative inventoried the <br />geomembrane and was present at all times during unloading of the geomembrane. <br />CQA ACTIVITIES: <br />SUMMARY: <br />The CQA activities performed consisted of observing, documenting and recording the construction <br />activities of the contractor. <br />AMEC observed, logged data, and assisted in the installation of geomembrane within the Phase 5 VLF. <br />AMEC observed, performed testing, obtained samples, and assisted in the placement of Soil Liner Fill <br />material within the Phase VLF. <br />AMEC inspected and approved subgrade prior to SLF placement. <br />AMEC observed and inspected anchor trench construction. <br />AMEC observed, obtained samples, and assisted in the process of DCF material at the DCF Process area. <br />AMEC continuously monitored the DCF placement. <br />AMEC observed the installation of the high volume solution collection system. <br />AMEC observed and inventoried geomembrane delivered to site. <br />Testing Summary <br />Laboratory testing continued (Particle Size Distribution, Atterberg Limits, Moisture-Density Relations, <br />Specific Gravity, Permeability, and Point Load testing) for sampled materials. <br />VLF Weekly Report WE 08.21.10.D.docx
