Case History of a RCRA Subtitle C Mixed Waste Embankment Cover System
This case history focuses on the construction of a crucial thin rock layer over geosynthetics and the solution encountered during the first construction phase of a RCRA Subtitle C embankment cover system at a hazardous and radioactive disposal site. The top and 5:1 side slopes of the cover system are constructed with a cap consisting of geosynthetics and native rock products. The process included the selection and testing of an appropriate geotextile and geomembrane system and the placement of a thin, 15.24 cm (six inch) thick filter rock cover layer placed directly over the required geosynthetics followed by the placement of further rock layers. The construction of this 15.24 cm filter rock layer was an issue successfully addressed by the project team. This case history specifies how the contractors successfully placed this thin filter rock system using a portable conveyor device while protecting the geosynthetics.
