Site Investigations PhaseSlide11

Site Investigations

Reservoir at El. 6874. El 6860, where lower seal would be installed, was below water.Cored 3 vertical rustication joints – Joints 44, 46, & 50.Excavated a test pit at Joint 49 – confirmed foundation contact likely as indicated on record drawings.

Concrete facing was cracked through at all joint locations cored.

Segregated, poorly consolidated RCC encountered at concrete/RCC interface is a potential seepage pathway behind liner.

Sealant in many of the vertical joints was randomly separated from the sides of the joint.

Construction ContractingSlide17

Construction Contracting MethodDesign/Bid/Build

Construction Manager at Risk (C-MAR)Construction Manager/General Construction (CM/GC)Design/BuildProject schedule defined delivery

method – CM/GCCARPI Liner and ContractorWorked closely with AECOM during the designPriced the project based on unit measures

Design PhaseSlide19

Partial Lining Option

AdvantagesLower impact on VOR water operationsLess expensive

DisadvantagesLower probability to improve stability and mitigate seepage

Sealing facing at 6860 against all pathways may be difficult and costly

Remobilization costs if sealing does not mitigate seepage effectively or if stability is in

Complete Lining Option

AdvantagesHigher probability to improve stability and mitigate seepageDouble

seal and grouted cutoff costs not needed and put towards linerNo remobilization costs

Disadvantages

Higher impact on VOR water operations

More expensive, 27,500 SF more compared to lining to dam bottom above 6860

Requires additional excavation and dewatering 27-foot dead pool below intake invert
