Final Construction Quality Assurance Report — WMU FU -13 Forward Landfill • TABLE 5 GCL CONFORMANCE TESTING SUMMARY 5.2.3 GCL Installation 5.2.3.1 GCL Deployment GCL was deployed on the 4:1 slope, bench, and 2:1 slope of FU -13. GLA's CQA Monitor activities during GCL deployment included observing the installer's activities, filling out field forms for Subgrade Acceptance and Deployment Logs, and ensuring compliance with the Specifications. • Field Panel identification: Prior to GCL deployment, GLA's CQA Monitor and the • superintendent for the liner installer, Camanco, discussed the labeling of the material. It was agreed to the number each separate panel sequentially, including the factory roll number and the day's date. Field sketches of each day's deployment were produced and maintained by GLA's CQA Monitor. Comanco also prepared a panel deployment drawing that was reviewed by GLA. This information can be found in Appendix H. Field Panel Placement: The GCL deployed on the 4:1 slopes were full panels from the anchor trench to bench, where the GCL was over lapped 7 feet according to Detail E on Sheet 5 of the Plans; and full panels from the bench to the bottom of the 2:1 slope. During deployment, granular bentonite was spread along the inside edge of each seam and the GCL overlapped 1 foot according to the requirements in the Plans and Specifications. During GCL deployment, GLA's CQA Monitor recorded information in the GCL Deployment Logs. To protect the GCL from hydration, the material was covered the same day as it was deployed with HDPE liner, in the event of rainy weather that could possibly damage the GCL. The GCL panel Deployment Logs and as -built drawings are presented in Appendix H. 19 Geo -Logic ASSOCIATES TEST RESULTS ASTM D4632 ASTM D 5993 ASTM D 5887 SAMPLE PEEL STRENGTH MASS PER UNIT AREA HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY NO.
