D3/o/acV (Signature of applicant/owneLast Revised: 11/07/2002 Part I Project Description EnCana Oil & Gas (USA), Inc. (EnCana) currently owns and operates the Benzel Evaporation Facility located in Section 26, Range 93 West, Township 7 South, 61u' PM, Garfield County, Colorado. Snyder Oil Corporation (SOCO) gained approval for construction and operation of the facility (Garfield County Board of County Commissioners Resolution Number 96-21) in 1996 through Garfield County's Special Use Permit process. EnCana proposes to upgrade the Benzel Evaporation Facility as follows. Design work for the facility has identified the need for additional structures within the facility boundaries. The planned upgrades to the facility will allow the system to more efficiently separate, reclaim, and consolidate byproducts from the water delivered to the facility. The project will consist of the following changes: • The upgraded system would be designed to treat 5,000 barrels of produced water per day. • Add three 500 -barrel (bbl.) capacity cone -bottomed offload tanks to receive water -hauling trucks from natural gas production well sites. These tanks will serve as the primary separation point for lighter than water hydrocarbons and heavier than water solids/paraffins/wastes. • Move and/or replace two existing 400 -bbl. capacity offload tanks to facilitate the configuration of the upgraded system. • Extend or otherwise modify the existing earthen berm secondary containment structure at the facility to accommodate the changes to the storage tank layout. • Add oil/water separation equipment for treatment of produced water from the offload tanks. This would include a gravity separator, (possibly) a polishing filter, and electric -driven pumps to move oils and water as required. • Construct a concrete containment pad to be used as a loading area for mobile tanks for the solids/paraffins/waste lighter and heavier components separated from the offload tanks. • Add an electric -driven pump to feed the evaporation system. • Add an evaporation spray system over the existing pond. This system will consist of piping and spray nozzles to optimize the evaporation of produced water. • Add an electric -driven pump for loading of tankers with recycled water from the existing pond. • Upgrade the electrical service at the facility to provide electrical power to additional equipment. • After the new system is in operation and the oil is effectively removed from water reporting to the existing pond, remove the existing netting from the pond, with the permission of the landowner. • Remove the existing equipment stored on the south side of the location. • Arrange for wellbore and other pipe storage on the location. This may include addition of pipe racks and sleepers for pipe storage. Refer to the Site Layout Maps in Part 1I of these application materials for a representation of these changes. The planned equipment changes have been designed to enhance facility operation and to make maintenance activities safer and easier for facility personnel. All structures included in the anticipated final configuration are static structures intended to be integral parts of the facility and its systems. As such, they will have the same general characteristics as existing permanent structures at the site, in terms use and hours of operation. The character of vehicle traffic to and from the site will not change from its current pattern. No improvements to public roads are necessary with the upgrades as planned. The added or changed structures will generate no noise or dust and will have minimal visual impact in relation to other structures at the site. Overall visual impact at the facility should improve due to the planned removal or rearrangement of stored extraneous equipment. Noise impact of the finished facility should also be lower than current conditions, as the planned equipment buildings will house the pumping equipment and should serve to dampen the noise generated by the pumps. In any event, EnCana will adhere to the noise standards specified by the Colorado Revised Statutes and the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission rules. At the time of this application, the design of the planned buildings is not complete. Once the engineering and design work is complete for these structures, building permit applications will be submitted to the Garfield County Department of Building and Planning. Refer to the previous Special Use Permit Application for the SOCO Produced Water Evaporation Pit in Part V of these application materials for detailed information regarding the location, purpose, planned use, and characteristics of the facility and the associated systems. 11111111111113111111011111111111111111111111111 1�111111111111111111111111111111111111111 lil 1111111111111 64,131106,08/12/2003 02:0BP 61504 P713 t1 R 635696 09/03/2003 03 33P 91514 P524 M AMORE 1 -el, 8-11.00 D 0,00 GARFIELD COUNTY CO 1 of 2 R 11.00 D 0.00 GARFIELD COUNTY CO QUIT CLAIM DEED 'MIS DEED, made this 11th day of August, 2003, between BENZEL LIVESTOCK COMPANY, a General Partnership, whose legal address is 9801.

Along with the application you will find the following Exhibits A - N: Exhibit "A" - Property description Exhibit "B" - Adjoining property owners Exhibit "C" - Surface topographic map Exhibit "D" - Assessors map Exhibit "E" - Garfield County Driveway Permit Exhibit "F" - Map of the facility with detail Exhibit "G" - Letter from surface owner Exhibit "1-1" - Fire control measures Exhibit "1" - Water production estimates Exhibit "J" - Aeration system Exhibit "K" - Evaporation/ Aeration calculations Exhibit "L" - Liner installation procedures Exhibit "M" - Soil features Exhibit "N" - Description of the berms *Please note that the final lease has not been negotiated with Mr. Benzel, the surface owner, hence the letter from him. The lease that we are negotiating does contain a right-of-way grant. The purpose of this facility will be to serve as collection point for produced water from the 34 producing wells that SOCO has in proximity to the proposed facility. We are currently producing approximately 150 - 200 barrels of water today which is being collected and hauled to the waste disposal facility in Debeque. We believe that once operational, this facility will significantly cut down on the truck traffic that is associated with our current operations and will alleviate some of the increased traffic that is sure to come in the future as we expand our operations. With regard to the applicable Garfield County Zoning Regulations [5.03.07 (1)&(2)j, we submit the following conclusions: • • The facility will not have any adverse impact on water through depletion, pollution of surface run-off, stream flow or ground water. No sewage will be generated, no water will be required and there will be no disposal. All water brought to the facility will be contained in either the two 400 barrel storage tanks which will be adequately bermed or in the evaporation pit that will be lined with a 40 mil thick liner. The water in the pit will evaporate aided by the aeration system that is described in Exhibit "J". The impacts to the adjacent lands should actually be less once the facility is built as compared to our current method of disposal. Trucks will make shorter trips through the area and this should cut down on the generation of dust, noise and vibrations. The facility itself will have an 8 horse power engine to run an aerator that helps the evaporation process. This should not require a noise assessment or an Air Pollution Emission Permit. A 1000 gallon propane tank will placed on the facility for the fuel to run the engine as well as the heater on the storage tanks. This should not cause the generation of vapor, significant noise or vibrations. • The impacts to wildlife will be limited to the area where the facility is located and should be minimal. Netting and fencing will be installed as appropriate to keep the animals out. • Construction should take no longer that 2 weeks and during that time additional traffic will travel in and out of the area on a daily basis. After the facility is operational, there should only be two or three trips to the facility every 24 hours. This will be a daylight operation except during the thawing season when road use is restricted. This should complete our application.

In order to achieve that, we need to submit our Use By Special Review Permit to the Garfield County Planning office within the next week to ten days. Since we are still in the process of negotiations with Alan Tholson on the lease agreement, we would like your permission to submit our permit and continue to finalize our lease agreement. This would speed up the process and hopefully everything will come together sometime late in September. If for some reason we are not able to reach a final agreement with you, we can simply withdraw our application before the approval hearing with the Garfield County Commissioners. We would also like your permission to attach a copy. of the lease draft to our application. We will indicate on the draft that it is subject to final approval by both parties. If this is acceptable to you, please sign both copies of this letter and return one to me.

Storage space should be protected from theft, vandalism, passage of vehicles, and be adjacent to the area to be lined. INSTALLATION 3.1 Anchor Trench Systems All Anchor Trench Systems shall be excavated by the Earthwork Contractor (unless otherwise specified) to the lines and widths shown on the design drawings, prior to geomembrane placement. If the anchor trench is excavated in clay susceptible to desiccation, no more than the amount of trench required for the geomembrane to be anchored in one day shall be excavated (unless otherwise specified) to minimize desiccation potential of the anchor trench clay soils. Slightly rounded corners shall be provided in the trench where the geomembrane adjoins the trench so as to avoid sharp bends in the geomembrane. No large rocks or clay lumps shall be allowed to underlie the geomembrane in the anchor trench. Backfilling of the anchor trench shall be conducted in accordance with Section 3.5. 3.2 Geosvnthetic Placement Immediately prior to installation of the designed geomembrane liner, the surface shall be observed by CLC and the owner or the owner's representative. The decision to repair cracks, if any, shall be made only by the Project Manager. The subgrade shall be walked by CLC.and the Project Manager for joint approval. CLC will sign acceptance of the surface condition �f the subgrade. The integrity of the underlying soil is the responsibility of the owner/earthwork contractor. Subgrade Preparation Recommendations: No liner shall be placed on surfaces not previously found acceptable by the CLC supervisor or his agent. No sharp stones or other hard objects that could penetrate the liner shall be present in the top 1 inch of the surfaces to be covered. Surfaces to be Tined shall be smooth and free of all rocks, sharp stones, sticks, roots, sharp objects, or debris of any kind. The surface should provide a firm, unyielding foundation for the geosynthetic with no sudden, sharp or abrupt changes or break in grade. 3.2.1 Field Panel Identification A field panel is the unit of geomembrane which is to be seamed in the field; i.e., a field panel is a roll or a portion of roll cut in the field. At the time of installation, the CLC Field Supervisor shall give each field panel an "identification code" (Number or letter -number). This identification code shall be agreed upon by the Project Manager. This field panel identification code shall be as simple and logical as possible. 5 3.2.2 Field Panel Placement 3.2.2.1 Location Field Panels are located by the CLC Field Supervisor in a manner consistent with the Specification and best suited to existing site conditions. • 3.2.2.2 Installation Schedule Field panels are placed one at a time, and each field panel is seamed immediately after its placement (in order to minimize the number of unseamed field panels); and CLC shall record the identification code, location, and date of installation of each geomembrane field panel. Daily Progress Report to be submitted to Project Manager for forwarding to Engineer (Owner), also on a daily basis. 3.2.2.3 Weather Conditions Welding placement shall not take place during any precipitation, in the presence of excessive moisture, blowing dust, or in the presence of excessive winds (unless wind barriers are provided). In addition, welding shall not take place in an area of ponded water. 3.2.2.4 Method of Placement CLC shall verify the following: Any equipment used does not damage the geomembrane by handling, trafficking, excessive heat, leakage of hydrocarbons, or other means; The prepared surface underlying the geomembrane has not deteriorated since previous acceptance and is still acceptable immediately prior to geosynthetic placement; Any geosynthetic elements immediately underlying the geomembrane are clean and free of debris; All personnel working on the geomembrane do not smoke, wear damaging shoes, or engage in other activities which could damage the geomembrane; The method used to unroll the panels does not cause scratches or crimps in the geomembrane and does not damage the supporting soil; The method used to place the panels minimizes wrinkles (especially differential wrinkles between adjacent panels; Adequate temporary loading and/or anchoring (e.g., sand bags, tires), not likely to damage the geomembrane, has been placed to prevent uplift by wind (in case of high winds, continuous loading, e.g., by adjacent sand bags, or soil is recommended along edges of panels to minimize risk of wind flow under the panels); Direct contact with the geomembrane is minimized; i.e., the geosynthetic(s) are protected by geotextiles, extra geomembrane, or other suitable materials in areas where excessive traffic may be expected. 6 CLC shall inform the Project Manager if the preceeding conditions are not fulfilled. 3.2.2.5 Damage CLC shall inspect the geomembrane after placement and prior to seaming for damage. CLC shall advise the Project Manager if any of the geomembrane should be repaired or accepted. Damaged geosynthetic or portions of damaged geosynthetics which have been rejected shall be marked and their removal from the work area recorded by CLC. Repairs to geomembrane shall be made according to procedures described in Section 3.4. 3.3 Field Seaming 3.3.1 Seam Layout In general, seams should be oriented parallel to the line of maximum slope; i.e., oriented along, not across, the slope. In corners and odd -shaped geometric locations, the number of seams should be minimized. No horizontal seam should be less than 5 feet (1.5 m) from the toe of the slope or areas of potential stress concentrations unless otherwise authorized. When full roll lengths do not extend past the toe of slope, panel ends may be seamed provided the panel end is cut at an angle greater than 450 to minimize seam stress. A seam numbering system compatible with a panel numbering system shall be agreed upon at the Pre -Construction Meeting. 3.3.1.1 Field Joints Field joints shall be made by overlapping adjacent sheets approximately 3 inches for extrusion welding and 4 inches for hot wedge welding. 3.3.1.2 .Pipe Sleeves Polyethylene pipe sleeves shall be used for pipe sleeves penetrating through the lined area. When the pipe composition is polyethylene, the sleeve should be extrusion welded directly to the pipe if space permits. For dissimilar materials, the sleeve should be fastened by mechanical means and sealant applied between the pipe and sleeve. 3.3.2 Seaming Equipment and Products The approved processes for field seaming are extrusion welding and fusion (hot wedge) welding. Proposed alternate processes shall be documented and submitted to the Owner or his representative for his approval. The extrusion welding apparatus shall be equipped with gauges giving the temperature of the apparatus at the nozzle and extruder barrel. The fusion welding apparatus shall be equipped with gauges giving the applicable temperatures. CLC shall verify that: Equipment used for seaming is not likely to damage geomembrane; The extrusion welder is purged prior to beginning a seam until all heat -degraded extrudate has been removed from the barrel; 7 The electric generator is placed on a smooth base such that no damage occurs tothe geomembrane; Buffing shall be completed no more than one (1) hour prior to extrusion welding (buffing is not necessary for hot wedge welding); A smooth insulating plate or fabric is placed beneath the hot welding apparatus after usage; and The geomembrane is protected from damage in heavily trafficked areas. 3.3.3 Seam Preparation CLC shall verify that: Prior to seaming, the seam area is clean and free of moisture, dust, dirt, debris of any kind, and foreign material; and _. Seams are aligned with the fewest possible number of wrinkles and "fishmouths". 3.3.4 Weather Conditions for Seaming The normally required weather conditions for seaming are as follows: The high temperature limit for welding is the temperature at which the well-being of the crew becomes uncertain. Unless authorized in writing by the Project Manager, no seaming shall be attempted at ambient temperatures below 50 Fahrenheit. The colder the weather, the slower the welding speeds possible for effective welding. Further detail for cold weather welding follows in this section. In all cases, the geomembrane shall be dry and protected from wind. CLC shall verify that these weather conditions are fulfilled and will advise the Project Manager if they are not. The Project Manager shall then decide if the installation shall be stopped or postponed. Cold Weather Seaming of Polyethylene Liners Cold Weather welding restrictions exist because problems associated with hot air seaming techniques have been mistakenly applied to extrusion welds. The CLC extrusion weld, however, has been successfully employed in cold weather on several job sites. With the assistance of preheating the sheet, the CLC weld has been applied as low as -50F. Both the CLC extrusion weld and hot wedge weld are able to overcome cold weather welding restrictions because of their unique designs. CLC's extrusion weld is not solely temperature dependent. It combines pressure, extrudate, and mixing action in addition to temperature, to bond the liner together. The mixing action means that convective heat transfer takes place in addition to conductive heat transfer. Overall heat transfer is thus improved, and sensitivity to ambient temperature is dramatically reduced. 8 The CLC extrusion welder is capable of continuously monitoring and controlling the temperatures of the extrudate and the zone of contact for independence of environmental conditions. To control the molten bead temperature accurately and to ensure no fluctuation out of the predetermined range the machine has: a. An over capacity heater band an the extruder. b. An extra over capacity heater band on the nozzle. c. A separate proportional temperature controller for each heater band. d. The nozzle thermocouple positioned approximately 1/8 inch from the end of the nozzle which rides on the sheet. The CLC hot wedge welder lifts the sheet slightly to minimize the effects of subcooling from a frozen sub -base. Temperature controls can be adjusted to guarantee fully integrated welding as demonstrated by peel testing. To guarantee quality welding in cold weather, the following procedures are recommended for CLC welds: The sheet should be preheated before welding any time ice crystals are present in the weld path. When strong winds are present, a shield of some sort should be set in place to prevent large convection heat losses from the welding gun during seaming. Test welds should always be prepared and tested before seaming in order to gauge appropriate welding conditions. (Example: Welding machine temperatures should be set higher and welding rates slowed down.) 3.3.5 Trial Seams Trial seams shall be made on fragment pieces of geomembrane liner to verify that seaming conditions are adequate. Such trial seams shall be made at the beginning of each seaming period (start of day, midday, and anytime equipment is turned off and allowed to cool down) for each seaming apparatus used. Trial seams shall be made under the same conditions as actual seams. The trial seam sample shall be approximately 3 feet (1.0 m) long by 1 foot (0.3 m) wide (after seaming) with the seam centered lengthwise. Seam overlap shall be nominally 4 inches; 3 inches minimum. Two adjoining specimens each 1 inch (25 mm) wide, shall be cut from the trial seam sample by the installer. The specimens shall be tested respectively in shear and peel using a field tensiometer, and they should not fail in the seam. If the additional specimen fails, the entire operation shall be repeated. If the additional specimen fails, the seaming apparatus and seamer shall not be accepted and shall not be used for seaming until the deficiencies are corrected and two consecutive successful full trial welds are achieved. 9 3.3.6 General Seaming Procedure Unless otherwise specified, the general seaming procedure used by CLC shall be as follows: The rolls of geomembrane shall be overlapped by approximately four inches (100 mm) for fusion welding and three inches for extrusion welding. "Fishmouths" or wrinkles at the seam overlaps shall be cut along the ridge of the wrinkle in order to achieve a flat overlap. The cut "fishmouths" or wrinkles shall be seamed and any portion where the overlap is inadequate shall then be patched with an oval or round patch of the same geomembrane extending a minimum of 6 inches beyond the cut in all directions. Seaming shall extend up the panels and well into the anchor trench. All cross seams are to be extrusion welded where they intersect. The top flap of membrane is removed in the area to be extrusion welded and the weld area is ground parallel to the seam prior to welding. For fusion welding on wet or muddy subgrade, a movable protective layer of plastic may be required to be placed directly below the overlapped membranes being seamed. This is to prevent any moisture buildup between the sheets to be welded and/or to provide consistent rate of speed for the wedge welding device. 3.3.7 Nondestructive Seam Continuity Testing 3.3.7.1 Concept CLC shall nondestructively test all field seams over their full length using a vacuum test unit, air pressure testing, or other approved method. The purpose of nondestructive tests is to check the continuity of seams. It does not provide information on seam strength. Continuity testing shall be carried out as the seaming work progresses, not at the completion of all field seaming. 3.3.7.2 Vacuum Testing The equipment shall be comprised of the following: A vacuum box assembly consisting of a rigid housing, a transparent viewing window, a soft neoprene gasket attached to the bottom, port hole or valve assembly, and a gauge to indicate chamber vacuum; A steel vacuum tank and pump assembly equipped with a pressure controller and pipe connections; A rubber pressure/vacuum hose with fittings and connections; A bucket and wide brush, mop or spray assembly; A soapy solution. 10 The following procedures shall be followed: Energize the vacuum pump and reduce the tank pressure to approximately 5 psi (10 inches of Hg.); Wet a strip of geomembrane approximately 12 inches by 48 inches (0.3 m by 1.2 m) with the soapy solution; Place the box over the wetted area; Close the bleed valve and open the vacuum valve; Ensure that a leak tight seal is created; For a period of approximately 5 to 10 seconds, examine the geomembrane through the viewing window for the presence of soap bubbles; If no bubble appears after 10 to 15 seconds, close the vacuum valve and open the bleed valve, move the box over the next adjoining area with a minimum 3 inches (75 mm) overlap, and repeat the process; All areas where soap bubbles appear shall be marked and repaired in accordance with Section 3.4; Vacuum tested seams are recorded on Daily Progress Reports. 3.3.7.3 Pressure Test Specifications for Dual Track Hot Wedge Welds: Test Pressure (after 5 min) PSI Maximum Pressure Sheet Thickness Min. Max. Drop Allowed 30 mil 24 30 3 PSI 40 mil 24 30 3 PSI 60 mil 27 30 3 PSI 80 mil 27 30 3 PSI 100 mil & thicker 30 32 3 PSI 3.3.7.4 Air Pressure Testing (for Double Fusion Seam only) The equipment shall be comprised of the following: An air pump (manual or motor driven) equipped with pressure gauge capable of generating and sustaining a pressure between 25 and 30 psi (160 and 200 kPa); A rubber hose with fittings and connections; and A sharp hollow needle, or other approved pressure feed device. The following procedures shall be followed: Seal both ends of the seam to be tested; Insert needle or other approved pressure feed device into the tunnel created by the fusion weld; Energize the air pump to a pressure between 25 and 30 psi (160 and 200 kPa), close valve, and sustain pressure for approximately five (5) minutes; If Toss of pressure exceeds above listed values, or does not stabilize, locate faulty area and repair in accordance with Section 3.4; Remove needle or other approved pressure feed device and seal; and Pressure tested seams are recorded on Daily Progress Reports. 3.3.8 Destructive Testing 3.3.8.1 Concept Destructive seam tests shall be performed at random selected locations. The purpose of these tests is to check that welds are fully integrated with each other and to evaluate seam strength. Seam strength testing shall be done as the seaming work progresses, not at the completion of all field seaming. 3.3.8.2 Location and Frequency The owner and/or owner's representative shall select locations where seam samples will be cut. These locations shall be established as follows: A frequency shall be agreed upon by CLC and the Project Manager at the Resolution and/or Pre -Construction Meeting. Unless otherwise specified, destructive samples should be pulled at intervals of 1 sample for every 500 linear feet of weld. The seaming technician shall not be informed in advance of the locations where the seam samples will be taken. 3.3.8.3 Sampling Procedure Samples shall be cut by CLC as the seaming progresses in order to have test results before the geomembrane is covered by another material. CLC shall: Cut samples; Assign a number to each sample which is to be based upon seam and sample number and mark it accordingly; Record sample location on daily report; and All holes in the geomembrane resulting from destructive seam sampling shall be immediately repaired in accordance with repair procedures described in Section 3.4. The continuity of the new seams in the repaired area shall be tested according to Section 3.3.7. 12 3.3.8.4 Size of Samples At a given sampling location, two types of samples shall be taken by the Installer. First, two sample coupons for field testing should be taken. Each of these sample coupons shall be 1 inch (0.25 mm) wide by 12 inches (0.3 m) long with the seam centered parallel to the length. The distance between these two samples shall be 42 inches. If both sample coupons pass the field test described in Section 3.3.8.5, a sample shall be cut between the two coupons. This sample shall be cut into three parts and distributed as follows: One portion to the Installer (CLC) for testing, 18 inches X 12 inches;. One portion for Geosynthetic Quality Assurance Laboratory testing if applicable, 12 inches X 12 inches (0.3 m X 0.3 m); and One portion to the Owner for archive storage, 12 inches X 12 inches (0.3 m X 0.3 m). Final determination of the sample sizes shall be made at the Pre -Construction Meeting. 3.3.8.5 Field Testing The two 1 inches (25 mm) wide strips, mentioned in Section 3.3.8.4, shall be tested in the field for peel and shear and shall not fail in the seam. If any field test sample fails to pass, then the procedures outlined in 3.3.8.7 shall be followed. Electric or hand tensiometer testing in the field is to be carried out. The following procedure is followed: If the initial sample coupon test passes a film tearing bond, the sample qualifies for further testing to obtain quantitive results. If it fails, the seam should be repaired in accordance with Section 3.4. Destructive Testing of Seams: Destructive testing of seams is very important because it provides the only direct evaluation of seam strength and bonding efficiency which indicates seam durability. Destructive testing involves two techniques: 1) shear testing, and 2) peel testing. Shear testing applies a tensile stress from the top sheet through the weld and into the bottom sheet. Peel testing, on the other hand, peels the top sheet back against the overlapped edge of the bottom sheet in order to observe how separation occurs. The peel test indicates whether or not the sheets are continuously and homogeneously connected through the seam.

If more than one coupon fails, then the sample fails. This is a modified ASTM method. The ASTM methods that are used are D4437, D413 and D638 which all can apply. Reasons for pass/fail criteria: The FTB requirement is very important. With a fully integrated, continuous connection through the seam, no weld bead/sheet or sheet/sheet interface exists. Such an interface might be separated by absorbed chemicals, causing failure of the seam. In addition to the FTB criterion, a minimum stress level is specified. This is important in order to protect against legitimate tearing of a thin portion of polymer in the weld (as might occur if the weld is off center). The minimum stress levels are necessarily lower than tensile yield strengths of the parent sheet because of the different configuration of the test specimens during destructive testing. Bending moments come into play along with straight tensile stresses, especially as the sheets are bent back in peel. These bending moments depend on the shape of the welds which vary even within the same welding technique. The minimum stress values are based on the average performance values of passed weld specimens tested in the laboratory. - 3.3.8.6 Procedures for Destructive Test Failure The following procedures shall apply whenever a sample fails a destructive test. CLC has two options: 1) Reconstruct the seam between any two passed test locations; or 14 2) Trace the welding path to an intermediate location (10 feet maximum from the point of the failed test in each direction) and take a small sample coupon for an additional field test at each location. If these additional samples pass the field test, then full samples are taken. If these samples pass the tests, then the seam is reconstructed between these locations. If either sample fails, then the process is repeated to establish the zone in which the seam should be reconstructed. All acceptable seams must be bounded by two locations from which samples passing destructive tests have been taken. CLC shall document all actions taken in conjunction with destructive test failures; e.g., capping of failed seam area. 3.4 Defects and Repairs 3.4.1 Identification All seams and non -seam areas of the geomembrane shall be examined by CLC for identification of defects, holes, blisters, undispersed raw materials and any sign of contamination by foreign matter. 3.4.1.1 Defective/damaged materials shall be identified via a deficiency report, either separately or on the Daily Report. Actions taken to resolve or correct the problem will also be recorded on the similar form. 3.4.1.2 Defects, holes, blisters, undispersed raw materials, signs of contamination by foreign matter, unacceptable welds in geomembranes and other unsatisfactory conditions will be identified on the Daily Report form. The repair/corrective action to "fix" the problem will also be recorded on a similar form. 3.4.2 Evaluation Each suspect location, both in seam and non -seam areas, shall be non-destructively tested using the methods described in Section 3.3.7 as appropriate. Each location which fails the non- destructive testing shall be marked by CLC and repaired. Work shall not proceed with any materials which will cover locations which have been repaired until laboratory test results with passing values are available. 3.4.3 Repair Procedures 3.4.3.1 Geomembrane Repair Procedures Any portion of the geomembrane failing a destructive or non-destructive test shall be repaired. Several procedures exist for the repair of these areas. The final decision as to the appropriate repair procedure shall be agreed upon between the Project Manager and CLC. The procedures available include: Patching - used to repair large holes, tears, and contamination by foreign matter; Buffing and re -welding - used to repair small sections of extruded seams; Spot welding or seaming - used to repair pinholes or other minor localized flaws; Capping - used to repair Targe lengths of failed seams; 15 Topping - used to repair areas of inadequate seams which have an exposed edge; In addition, the following provisions shall be satisfied: Surfaces of the geomembrane which are to be repaired shall be abraded no more than one hour prior to the repair; All surfaces must be clean and dry at the time of the repair; All seaming equipment used in repairing procedures must be approved; The repair procedures, materials, and techniques shall be approved in advance of the specific repair by the Project Manager and CLC. Patches or caps shall extend at least 6 inches beyond the edge of the defect, and all corners of patches shall be rounded with a radius of at least 3 inches. 3.4.3.2 Geomembrane Verification of Repairs Each repair shall be non-destructively tested using the methods described in Section 3.3.7 as appropriate. Repairs which pass the non-destructive test shall be taken as an indication of an adequate repair. Failed tests indicate that the repair shall be redone and retested until a passing test result is obtained. 3.5 Backfilling of Anchor Trench The anchor trench, if any, shall be adequately drained by Owner/Earthwork Construction to prevent ponding or otherwise softening the adjacent soils while the trench is open. The anchor trench shall be backfilled by the Earthwork Contractor or as outlined in the specifications and bid documents. Since backfilling the anchor trench can affect material bridging at toe of slope, consideration should be given to backfill the liner at its most contracted state; preferably during the cool of the morning or extended period of overcast skies. Care shall be taken when backfilling the trenches to prevent any damage to the geosynthetics. 3.6 Lining System Acceptance The geosynthetic lining system shall be accepted when: The installation of all materials are deployed and welded; Verification of the adequacy of all seams and repairs including associated testing is complete. 3.7 Soils in Contact with the Geomembrane Important points for quality assurance of soils in contact with the geomembranes include: A geotextile or other cushion approved by the designer may be installed between angular aggregate and the geomembrane. Equipment used for placing soil shall not be driven directly on the geomembrane. 16 A minimum thickness of 1 foot (0.3 m) of soil is recommended between a light dozer (such as a CAT D-3 or wide track caterpillar 0-6 or lighter) and the geomembrane. In heavily trafficked areas such as access ramps, soil thickness should be at least 2 to 3 feet (0.6-0.9m). Soil/Earth Cover on Top of Geomembrane: Placement of soils, sand or other types of earth cover on top of the liner shall not be performed until all destructive and non-destructive testing has been performed and accepted. Placement should be performed to minimize wrinkles. Equipment operators should be briefed on method of placement and affects to thermal expansion and contraction of the liner. Material placed on top of the liner should be back -dumped on liner and, in order to avoid the formation of wrinkles, efforts should be made to load the soil so that it comes down on top of the liner rather than being pushed across the sheet. This is done by 1) using a front-end loader to place soil ahead of spreading soil cover, and 2) spreading soil by building a mound at the edge of soil, then pushing soil up and over the mound causing it to come down on the liner. If a wrinkle forms, every effort should be made to walk the wrinkle out. Minor folding over of wrinkles is acceptable providing an even transition occurs at the tail of the wrinkle. If excessive stress points are created at the tail of the wrinkle, the wrinkle should be cut out and repaired per Section 3.4.

Tne ratings are base on soli properties, site features, and observed performance of tne soils, Permeability, a nigh water table. depth to bedrock or to a cemented pan, and flooding affect absorption of tne effluent.

Unsatisfactory performance of sep;:'_c tank absorption fields, including excessively slow absorption of effluent. su:facing o: effluent, and ,ail:sside seepage, car affect public health.

SEWAGE Lk"s7J'i: are shallow ponds constructed to hold sewage while aerobic bacteria decompose the solid and liquid wastes. Lagoons should have a nearly level floor surrounded by cut slopes or embankments of compacted soil. La?cons general? are designed to nCld t!e sewage within a depth of 2 to r Ieet. heaIly lmperyiol:s so:: materia: for the lagoon floor and stales Is reg'u.red to minimize seepage and contamination of ground water. This report gives ratings for the natural S011 that makes tip rhe lagoon floor. The surface layer aod, generally. 1 of 2 feet of soli material below the surface layer are excavated to provide Material for the embankments. The ratings are oased on soil properties, site features, and observed performance of tne soils. v'cnsidered in the ratings are slope, permeability. a nig; water table. depth to bedrock or to a cemented pan, flooding, large stones, and content of organic matter. Excessive seepage due to rapid permeability of tne soli or a water table tat is nlgn enougn to raise the level of sewage in :'e lagoon causes a lagoon to function unsatisfactorily. Pollution Iesults if seepage is excessive or if floodwater overtops the lagoon. fr hien content of organic matter is detrimental to proper functioning of the lagoo n because it inhibits aerobic activity. Slope, bedrock, and cemented pans can cause construction problems, and large stones can hinder canoac:'_on of the lagoon floor. 5F.h1TA[i LANDFILLS are areas where solid waste is disposed of by burying it in soil. There are two types of landfill, trencn and area. In a trencn landfill, the waste is placed in a trench. t: is spread, compacted, and covered daily with a :rill layer of soil excavated a: :he site, In an area landfill, the waste is placed in successive layers on the surface of the soil. The waste is spread. compacted. and covered daily with a thin layer of soil form a source away from the si�e, Beth types of landfill must ?e able to Deal heavy vehicular traffic.
