earthwork and geosynthetic materials. The EARTHWORK <br /> CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for repairing all identified leaks in the <br /> geomembrane following placement of the overlying earthwork and <br /> geosynthetic materials. The EARTHWORK CONTRACTOR shall remove <br /> all earthwork and geosynthetic materials overlying the geomembrane to the <br /> extent required to repair the leak and shall repair all identified leaks in the <br /> geomembrane at his sole expense. Following the repair of the leak in the <br /> geomembrane, the EARTHWORK CONTRACTOR shall replace all <br /> earthwork and geosynthetic materials at his sole expense. All Work <br /> performed to repair and replace materials shall be performed in accordance <br /> with the applicable Specifications sections. <br /> B. Placing Requirements: <br /> 1. All synthetic materials underlying the Protective Operations Layer will be <br /> inspected and approved by the QA/QC CONSULTANT prior to placement <br /> of soil material. <br /> 2. Deposit material in lifts not less than 12-inches in depth (after compaction). <br /> Do not operate placement equipment over the underlying GDM and <br /> geotextile with less than 12-inches of Protective Operations Layer in place. <br /> 3. Protective Operations Layer shall be placed in continuous and <br /> approximately horizontal lifts for their full length and width using track- <br /> type dozers unless otherwise specifically permitted by the DESIGN <br /> ENGINEER or QA/QC CONSULTANT. <br /> 4. Method of dumping and spreading materials shall ensure uniform <br /> distribution of the material. <br /> 5. No discing, ripping, or other mixing of the soil will be permitted within <br /> 12 inches of synthetic materials. <br /> C. Compaction Requirements: Compact using a minimum of two passes of a track- <br /> type dozer unless otherwise approved by the QA/QC CONSULTANT or DESIGN <br /> ENGINEER prior to the start of Work. Approval does not absolve the <br /> EARTHWORK CONTRACTOR of responsibilities for damage to the underlying <br /> geomembrane lining and geotextile, at EARTHWORK CONTRACTOR's sole <br /> expense. <br /> D. Quality Control: <br /> 1. Particle Size Tests: Particle size tests may be performed by the QA/QC <br /> CONSULTANT on the Protective Operations Layer. If particle size does <br /> not meet specifications, terminate placement and take corrective action prior <br /> to continuing placement. <br /> Forward Landfill WMU FU-04 <br /> 02300 24 EARTHWORK <br />
