Prior to implementing any of the work described in this Section, the <br /> GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR shall become thoroughly familiar with the <br /> site,the site conditions, and the portions of the work falling within this Section. <br /> B. Inspection: <br /> 1. Prior to implementing any of the work of this Section, the <br /> GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR shall carefully inspect the installed <br /> work of all other Sections and verify that all such work is complete to the <br /> point where the installation of this Section may properly continence without <br /> adverse impact. <br /> 2. If the GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR has any concern regarding the <br /> installed work of other Sections, he should immediately notify the QA/QC <br /> CONSULTANT prior to start of work of the Section.

Samples shall be taken at the rate of one sample per lot or one per 100,000 sq. ft <br /> (9,300 sq. m), whichever is greater and tested for bentonite mass per unit area, peel <br /> strength and hydraulic conductivity. Direct Shear tests as described in Section <br /> 2.l.A.7 shall also be performed. <br /> D. The QA/QC CONSULTANT will increase the frequency of sampling in the event <br /> that test results are negative. This additional testing shall be performed at the <br /> expense of the GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR. <br /> E.
