Nogales Contractor: R J Gordon Construction, Inc. M. Hu and Weather: Clear - Hot Wind: 0-15 mph. Temperature: Approx. range 56- 99 F Other: The contractor worked from 5:30 am to 6:00 pm. Operations Layer Processing: Contractor continued screening of operations stockpile today at 6:00 am. (1) Hyundai 480L excavator, (1) CAT D6 dozer (1) 950 M Loader used to perform screening operations. The Hyundai 480L used to load soil from the West end of Stockpile 2 into the Power Screen screening plant. Screened product was stockpiled in a cone using a belt stacker to keep the screened soil separate from unprocessed soil. (1) 950 M Loader was used to relocate +1" from under belt into separate stockpile. (1) Sample was collected from today's stacker belt stockpile for a full gradation in field lab. Lab results indicated 100 % Passing 1" Screen. Screening operation ended at 6:00 pm. Operations Layer Placement: (1) Hitachi 300 loaded (1) Cat 745 Dump Truck with Screened Operations Layer for placement on cell floor. (1) D6 LGP and (1) D4 Dozer were used to spread Operations layer 2 ft thick over deployed 8 oz/sy geotextile along Western most portion of cell working to the north and west. Random samples of Operations layer were hand sieved in field with 1" screen during placement. Placement discontinued at 6:00 pm Gravel Drainage Material Placement: 19-20 various types of end -dumps were used to import Gravel Drainage Material (GDM) from the Cemex Rock Plant until 4:30 pm. Observed trucks operating on at least 3 ft of GDM overlying the Geomembrane. (1) CAT D6 LGP dozer equipped with GPS spread GDM in the center of cell floor pushing north and west this morning beginning at 5:30 am. (1) CAT D6 LGP dozer equipped with GPS spread previously stockpiled GDM along toe of the Northern slope. (1) Laborer controlled wrinkles. GDM placement discontinued at approximately 11:30 pm due to moderate to heavy wrinkles observed in HDPE Liner. GDM import continued, with material stockpiled on graded Operations Layer along Eastern portion of floor adjacent sump. AES QA personnel monitored the placement and verified the depths of the placed LCRS gravel by using a dulled probe. (1) GDM sample was collected at 10:30 am. Field gradation indicates GDM met the required specifications. Geotextile: RJ Gordon deployed and Great Basin sewed 8 oz/sy geotextile over GDM along Western portion of the cell floor. (2-3) Laborers were used to hand roll Geotextile into place. (1) Laborer Observed using hand sewing machine to sew seams. Geocomposite: 8oz Geotextile seams were sewn by Great Basin using hand sewing machine along sides of previously deployed Geocomposite on the Northern Slope. Observed 3ft overlap and nylon ties secured 6 -inch intervals along existing Area 1 geocomposite at the Tie-in to North. A 8oz Geotextile Cap placed over nylon ties and heat bonded to existing Geocomposite. Leachate Collection Pipe: Contractor installed portions of Middle and Northern Leachate Collection, Pipe. Approximately 100 if of 6" perforated HDPE pipe was placed today. (1) John Deere 410 Backhoe and (1) Cat 950 M Loader operating over completed operations layer soil was used to place coarse gravel over 6" Perforated HDPE Pipe. Coarse gravel and 6" HDPE pipe was wrapped in 8 oz/sy Geotextile. Gravel was measured to be a minimum 1 ft deep and a minimum 4 ft wide. Geotextile was measured to have a 2 ft minimum overlap. 24" HDPE Riser Pipe and Sump: No activity observed today Equipment Onsite: (1) CAT D6T LGP dozer, (2) water trucks, (1) Hitachi 300 excavator, (1) CAT TH160B folk lift, (1) John Deere 410 Backhoe. (1) CAT 623 paddlewheel scraper. (1) Power Screen, (1) Belt Stacker, (1) Hyundai 48OLC excavator, (1) CAT D6T dozer, (2) Cat 745 Dump Truck, (1) Cat 950 M Loader (1) CAT D4 Dozer Problems/Resolutions. Visitors: M.
