Various CAT dozers were used to rip the existing surface to a depth of at least 6- inches. <br />Moisture conditioning of the subgrade was performed (when necessary) using a CAT 773 water <br />truck. Compaction was performed using a 10 -ton vibratory smooth drum compactor passing over <br />the entire subgrade surface at least four times. The subgrade was inspected and approved by an <br />AMEC field representative, prior to fill placement. <br />In most areas, excluding flat areas where fills were started, the subgrade is keyed into as the fill <br />progresses. This is due to steep slopes that are adjacent to most fill areas. In these instances, the <br />subgrade is inspected for organics and debris by an AMEC field representative prior to fill <br />placement (keying into the subgrade). <br />B) Overburden Fill Placement <br />Overburden fill material was delivered from CC &V Mine Operations throughout both day and night <br />shifts. Ames CAT D -10 dozers were used to maintain the borrow area. A CAT 993 front -end <br />loader and a CAT 992 front -end loader were used to load overburden fill material into CAT 773 <br />and CAT 777 haul trucks. <br />Overburden fill was placed in the areas shown on Figure 1. Overburden fill was placed in 36" to <br />40" loose lifts using various CAT dozers, keying into existing slopes when necessary. Various <br />CAT excavators with a hammer attachments "broke up" oversize boulders before they were <br />placed in the fill. Each lift was moisture conditioned using a CAT 773 water truck (when <br />MEW Weekly Report WE 08.04.2012 <br />
