E. Protective Operations Layer Acceptance: <br /> 1. Final acceptance of the Protective Operations Layer will be based on tests <br /> made on completed Work on samples taken from the completed layer, on <br /> leak location testing and repair, and on thickness as determined by surveys <br /> of the top of GDM and Protective Operations Layers. Testing for final <br /> acceptance shall be performed by the QA/QC CONSULTANT in <br /> accordance with these Specifications and the CQA Manual. <br /> 3.14 GENERAL EARTHFILL <br /> A. Place material in minimum 8-inch lifts and compact each lift to minimum 90 <br /> percent relative compaction (ASTM D1557). <br /> B. Do not attempt to compact general earthfill that contains excessive moisture. <br /> Aerate material by blading, discing, harrowing, or other methods, to hasten drying <br /> process. <br /> C. Use hand-held compaction equipment, if necessary, when compacting general <br /> earthfill around HDPE Tanks. <br /> 3.15 ACCESS ROADS <br /> A. Construct access roads of general earthfill as shown on the Construction <br /> Drawings. Place material in lifts not exceeding 1-foot depth (after compaction) <br /> and compact each lift to a minimum 90 percent relative compaction <br /> (ASTM D1557). <br /> B. During all compacting operations, maintain optimum practicable moisture content <br /> required for compaction purposes in each lift of fill. Maintain uniform moisture <br /> content throughout the lift. Insofar as practicable, add water to the material at the <br /> site of excavation. Supplement, if required, by sprinkling the general earthfill. At <br /> the time of compaction, the water content of the material shall be at the optimum <br /> moisture content,±4 percentage points per ASTM D1557. <br /> C. Do not attempt to compact general earthfill material that contains excessive <br /> moisture. Aerate material by blading, discing, harrowing, or other methods, to <br /> hasten the drying process. <br /> 3.16 BERMS <br /> A. Construct termination and perimeter of general earthfill or clay earthfill as shown <br /> on the Construction Drawings. Place material in lifts not exceeding 1-foot depth <br /> (after compaction) and compact each lift to approximately 90 percent relative <br /> compaction (ASTM D1557). <br /> B. The EARTHWORK CONTRACTOR shall repair or replace any geosynthetic <br /> Forward Landfill WMU FU-14 <br /> 02300 25 EARTHWORK <br />
