ameo <br />• <br />then placed onto the CP. After the CR was allowed to cure, SF was then <br />placed to the final grade, as needed. In some cases, the excavation did <br />not require placement of CSB prior to placement of the CP and CR. <br />For collapsed workings extending deeper than 25 feet and where the <br />depth to competent bedrock was less than 7 feet to the final SLF <br />subgrade surface, the collapsed materials were excavated to a depth of <br />25 feet below finished grade. The excavations were either backfilled with <br />CSB to approximately 10 feet below the finished grade or shaped for the <br />CP at a workable depth below 10 feet. The surface of the CSB or existing <br />material was compacted using the shovel from a CAT excavator. A 3-foot <br />minimum CP was cast into the shaft and allowed to cure for a minimum of <br />7 days. A minimum 7-foot thick layer of CR was then placed onto the CP. <br />After the CR was allowed to cure, SF was then placed to the final grade, <br />as needed. In some cases, the excavation did not require placement of <br />CSB prior to placement of the CP and CR. <br />• For collapsed workings extending deeper than 25 feet and where the <br />depth to competent bedrock was greater than 7 feet to the final SLF <br />subgrade surface, the collapsed materials were excavated to a depth of <br />25 feet below finished grade. The excavations were either backfilled with <br />CSB to approximately 3 feet below the soil/bedrock interface or shaped <br />for placement of the CP. The surface of the CSB was compacted using <br />the shovel from a CAT excavator. A 3-foot minimum CP was cast into the <br />shaft and allowed to cure for a minimum of 7 days. A minimum 7-foot <br />thick layer of CR was then placed onto the CP. After the CR was allowed <br />to cure, SF was then placed to the final grade, as needed. <br />• Shallow surface pits that were less than 25 feet deep below the final SLF <br />subgrade surface were excavated to bedrock or pit termination. The pits <br />were then backfilled with compacted SSF and SF to the final subgrade <br />elevation. <br />In some cases, shallow surface pits were completely removed during <br />slope re-contouring and required no further remediation. <br />2.1.2 Remediation of Laterals/Inclines/Adits <br />A number of laterals and adits were identified within the Phase 5 VLF. Per the remediation <br />recommendations, underground workings that were identified within 50 feet of the finished <br />grade elevation were remediated. Workings that were deeper than 50 feet below the final <br />grade elevation did not require any remediation. <br />r? <br />AMEC Earth & Environmental, Inc. <br />2000 S.
