• The anchor trench dimensions have been checked, and the trenches are free of sharp objects and stones. • There are no excessively soft areas. • The soil surface is not saturated, and no standing water is present. • The soil surface has not desiccated. • All construction stakes have been removed and there is no debris, rocks, or any other objects in or on the soil surface. • The Geosynthetics Contractor has certified in writing that the surface on which the geomembrane will be installed is acceptable. Panel Placement. Before installing any of the geomembrane, the Geosynthetics Contractor must submit a drawing in accordance with the Specifications. The drawings will show the proposed layout of the panels, including panel identification numbers, field seams, and any details that do not conform to the Construction Drawings. The QA/QC Inspectors will maintain an up to date panel layout drawing that shows the following: (i) roll numbers; (ii) panel numbers; (iii) seam numbers; (iv) test locations; (v) repair locations; and, (vi) non-destructive testing information. During panel placement operations, the QA/QC Inspector will: • Record panel numbers and dimensions on the panel/seam log. • Observe the panel surface as it is deployed and record all panel defects and defect corrective actions (panel rejected, patch installed, extrudate placed over the defect, etc.) on the repair sheet. Verify that corrective actions are made in accordance with the Specifications. • Verify that equipment used during deployment operations does not damage the geomembrane. Verify that equipment used on the geomembrane does not leak hydrocarbons onto the geomembrane or that corrective measures are taken to prevent leakage. • Verify that the surface beneath the geomembrane has not deteriorated since previous acceptance. Verify that no stones, construction debris, or other items are beneath the geomembrane that could damage the geomembrane. 0 Page 29
