The grout curtain will extend fifteen feet in to bedrock for the first 170 feet and in to a silt horizon for the remainder of the curtain length. The grout curtain will be comprised of high and low mobility, balanced, stable grouts. Real-time collection of water pressure testing and grouting responses will be required as will near real-time adjustments to grout mixes. The anticipated volume of grout solids to be placed is 20,185 cubic feet. Drilling methods will need to meet the requirements of USACE ER 1110-1-1807. The work also requires the design and construction of a work surface (construction/drilling pad) near the crest of the earthen embankment to accomplish the embankment grouting and a stormwater collection system to prevent runoff into the reservoir.
