CONTRACT DESCRIPTION 
 
Contract Type:  Per the Bid Documents, Standard Construction Agreement 
between OWNER and CONTRACTOR. 
 
Site Location:  Glendale Landfill, 11480 Glendale Avenue, Glendale, Arizona, 
85307. 
1.3 
FAMILIARIZATION 
 
Prior to implementing any work, the CONTRACTOR shall become thoroughly 
familiar with the site, the site conditions, and all portions of the work falling within 
this Project and the CQA Plan. 
 
Inspection 
1. 
If the CONTRACTOR has any concerns regarding the site, the 
CONTRACTOR shall notify the ENGINEER and the OWNER in 
writing within 48 hours of the bid submittal date.  Failure to notify the 
OWNER or the ENGINEER prior to the bid submittal date shall be 
construed as CONTRACTOR’s acceptance of the related work of all 
other Sections. 
2. 
The CONTRACTOR shall verify as-built conditions prior to 
placement and/or excavation of any material.

SUMMARY OF WORK 
3. 
The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for contacting Blue 
Stake and locating all underground utilities prior to excavation of any 
material. 
1.4 
CONTRACTOR’S USE OF PREMISES 
 
The CONTRACTOR should limit activities to the project area, as shown on the 
Drawings including stockpiles, staging area, and haul road as identified by the 
OWNER. 
 
CONTRACTOR shall coordinate use of the premises, for his material storage and 
construction activities, with OWNER and utility service companies. 
 
The full use of the premises for storage, the operations of workmen and for all 
other construction activities will not be available to CONTRACTOR.  The 
Drawings define the area allocated to CONTRACTOR. 
 
It shall be understood that responsibility for protection and safe-keeping of 
equipment and materials on or near the site will be entirely that of CONTRACTOR 
and that no claim shall be made against the OWNER or his authorized 
representatives by reason of any act.  It shall be further understood that should any 
occasion arise necessitating access to the sites occupied by these stored materials 
or equipment, the ENGINEER shall direct CONTRACTOR owning or responsible 
for the stored materials and equipment to immediately move the same.  No 
materials or equipment may be placed upon the property of the OWNER, other 
than in the designated areas as shown on the Drawings, unless the ENGINEER has 
agreed to the location contemplated by CONTRACTOR to be used for storage.  
All stored materials shall be labeled according to the appropriate CONTRACTOR 
or Subcontractor with the manufacturer’s label as well.  Appropriate material 
safety data sheets (i.e., MSDS) shall be provided. 
 
CONTRACTOR shall be required to share use of the premises with other 
Contractors whose services the OWNER has obtained or will obtain for 
construction of other facilities on the site.  
1.5 
CONSTRUCTION WATER 
 
Construction water is available on-site at the existing waterline standpipe located 
north of the north cell excavation.  The CONTRACTOR shall supply his own J-
stand or overhead tank for construction water.  
 
CONTRACTOR shall utilize all means deemed necessary to store water in 
sufficient quantities to maintain dust control in conformance with Section 01560 
and for compaction as required by the Division 2 specifications.  This may mean 
installing overhead tanks at more than one supply location.  The CONTRACTOR 
will not be allowed to utilize existing equipment (i.e., City of Glendale’s stand 
tank) used for dust control water for the landfill operations.

SUMMARY OF WORK 
 
The OWNER will not charge a fee to the CONTRACTOR for the use of 
construction water; however, costs associated with installing overhead tanks and 
appurtenances, pumping, additional storage (if required), transport and/or 
conveyance, and utilization of construction water shall be included in the bid price 
for each item as identified in Section 01025. 
1.6 
DESCRIPTION OF WORK 
 
The work to be performed for this contract includes, but is not necessarily limited 
to: 
• surveying, 
• North Cell Phase 2 (NC) finish grade excavation (mass excavation has 
been previously performed under separate contract), 
• subgrade preparation, 
• compacted soil fill (as needed for liner installation), 
• liner installation, 
• stockpiling daily cover in the northern portion of the North Cell, 
• screening/stockpiling future NC Phase 2 operations layer material, 
• operations layer placement. 
 
Upon completion of subgrade preparation and prior to the placement of the 
operations layer, the CONTRACTOR shall provide the necessary time on the 
project schedule for the geosynthetic material installer (included as part of this 
project) to construct all geosynthetic components of the base lining system.

MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 
 
Section will be considered part of cost of all other items of work.  OWNER will 
not make separate payment for this section. 
1.11 
OTHER 
 
The exact nature of materials and wastes disposed of at the landfill is unknown.  
The possibility exists of encountering gases and/or other substances during the 
Work that may be potentially hazardous to the safety and health of personnel, 
especially those working in the vicinity of open excavations and pipes venting 
gases. 
 
The CONTRACTOR is advised that decomposing refuse produces landfill gas 
which is approximately 50 percent methane (natural gas) by volume.  Landfill gas 
is colorless, can be odorless, may contain hydrogen sulfide, toxic or hazardous 
material, is combustible, and may contain no oxygen.  Landfill gas can also 
migrate through several thousand feet of soil adjacent to landfills.  The 
CONTRACTOR is therefore advised of the need for precautions against fire, 
explosion and asphyxiation when working on the landfill and in or near 
excavations on the project site. 
1.12 
SUBMITTALS 
 
CONTRACTOR shall submit with bid documents, a general Health and Safety 
Plan to the OWNER, for informational purposes only. 
 
CONTRACTOR shall submit, after Notice of Award but prior to pre-construction 
meeting, a Site-Specific Health & Safety Plan to be approved by OWNER (See 
Section 01300).  Acceptance of the plan by the OWNER does not release the 
CONTRACTOR of liability in the event of an accident or injury, nor does it place 
any liability on the OWNER. 
 
Submittals may be completed electronically.

1.9 
FUEL COST ADJUSTMENT 
 
General 
1. 
The ENGINEER will adjust monthly progress payments up or down as 
appropriate for cost fluctuations in diesel fuel as determined in 
accordance with these special provisions. 
2. 
A fuel cost adjustment will be made when fluctuations in the price of 
diesel fuel, in excess of 15 percent, occur throughout this contract. The 
ENGINEER will not provide such adjustments for fluctuations in the 
price of diesel fuel of 15 percent or less. 
3. 
No adjustments will be made for fluctuations in the price of fuels other 
than diesel. 
 
Measurement 
1. 
The base index price of fuel will be determined by the ENGINEER from 
the selling prices of diesel fuel published by OPIS (Oil Price 
Information Service). The base index price to be used will be the price 
for Diesel fuel No. 2, Ultra Low Sulfur, PAD 5, City of Phoenix Rack. 
The reported average value for the Phoenix area will be used. 
2. 
The base index price for each month will be the arithmetic average of 
the selling price for diesel fuel, as specified above, shown in the last 
four reports received prior to the last Wednesday of the month. 
3. 
This price will be effective as of the last Wednesday of each month. 
4. 
This price will be deemed to be the "initial cost" (IC) for diesel fuel on 
project during the following month.

Glendale Landfill 
Division 1 
 
 
April 2024 
Section 01025 
 
Page 4 of 11 
MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 
5. 
The current index price for diesel fuel in subsequent months will be the 
base index price, determined as specified above, for the current month. 
6. 
For example; an adjustment for diesel fuel used in May, if applicable, 
will be based on the “current price” (CP) for May as posted on the last 
Wednesday of May. The amount of adjustment per gallon will be the 
net difference between the "initial cost," adjusted by 15 percent, and the 
current index price. The monthly adjustment will be determined by the 
ENGINEER and included in the payment estimate as a fuel adjustment. 
For fluctuations in excess of 15 percent, fuel cost adjustments will only 
be made for current price index increases greater than 1.15 times the 
"initial cost" or for decreases less than 0.85 times the "initial cost." No 
calculation will be made for fluctuations in the current index price of 15 
percent or less when compared to the "initial cost." 
7. 
If the Fuel Cost Adjustment applies according to this Section A - 
GENERAL, then the number of gallons of diesel fuel used per month 
will be considered to equal 1.5 percent of the dollar amount of work 
reported by the CONTRACTOR for each month. Such dollar amount 
will not include revenue accrued in the previous month for fuel price 
adjustments. 
8. 
A monthly adjustment, if applicable, will be made on this quantity, as 
shown below: 
𝑆𝑆= 0.015 ∗(𝑄𝑄)
𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼
∗(𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶−𝐴𝐴𝐴𝐴) 
Where: 
S = Monetary amount of the adjustments (plus or minus) in dollars 
Q = Dollar amount of work completed for the month 
CP = Current index price in dollars per gallon 
AC = Adjusted “initial cost” (1.15 or 0.85 times IC) in dollars per 
gallon 
IC = “Initial cost” as determined above, dollars per gallon 
9. 
If adjustments are made in the contract quantities, the CONTRACTOR 
shall accept any fuel adjustment as full compensation for increases or 
decreases in the price of fuel regardless of the amounts of overrun or 
underrun. 
10. 
The value calculated above (plus or minus) will be adjusted to include 
sales tax and other taxes as applicable. 
11. 
No additional compensation will be made for any additional charges, 
costs, expenses, etc., which the CONTRACTOR may have incurred 
since the time of bidding and which may be the result of any fluctuation 
in the base index price of diesel fuel.

SOURCE OF MATERIALS 
 
CONTRACTOR must notify OWNER in writing of the sources from which it 
proposes to obtain material requiring approval, certification, or testing.  Such 
notification must be made as soon as possible after award of Contract but no later 
than 5 days after receipt of the Notice to Proceed. 
1.4 
ACCEPTANCE TESTING OR QUALITY ASSURANCE TESTING 
 
Acceptance testing is the testing of materials prior to their use in the Work and 
also any testing deemed necessary by OWNER for acceptance of the completed 
Work.  OWNER will perform acceptance testing of materials and workmanship in 
accordance with the Contract Documents and reserves the right to perform 
additional testing at any time to determine conformance with the requirements of 
the Contract Documents. 
 
Acceptance testing by OWNER is not to be considered as a replacement for control 
testing conducted by CONTRACTOR or a manufacturer producing materials for 
CONTRACTOR.  Acceptance testing will be at the expense of OWNER. 
1.5 
QUALITY CONTROL TESTING 
 
Quality control testing is the testing of materials prior to their delivery from a 
manufacturer, or during construction, such as geomembrane liner seam testing, 
soil density testing,  riprap gradation, and such other tests as are specified in the 
various sections of the Specifications to ensure compliance with the Contract 
Documents.  CONTRACTOR must assume full responsibility for control testing 
and give sufficient notice to OWNER to permit it to witness the tests.  Control 
testing is at the expense of CONTRACTOR and where specifically required, 
performed by an independent testing firm.

QUALITY CONTROL 
 
Submit the name, address, and qualifications, together with the scope of proposed 
services, of the proposed testing firm(s) submit to OWNER for approval at least 
5 days prior to the scheduled commencement of any work involving such testing. 
 
Within five days after completion of testing performed by or for CONTRACTOR, 
submit test results to OWNER.  Identify test reports with the information 
specified for samples in Section 01300 and additionally, the name and address of 
the organization performing the test, and the date of the tests. 
 
Quality Control testing performed under this section is primarily intended to allow 
the CONTRACTOR to determine that manufacturing and construction 
techniques are sufficient to provide a work product that is fully compliant with 
these specifications.  It is independent from Quality Assurance testing, which is 
performed by the CQA organization, and which is primarily intended to confirm 
that the work product, as constructed, conforms to the specifications.  The 
CONTRACTOR may need to perform Quality Control testing at frequencies 
greater than those specified in various sections of the specifications, or for items 
for which no Quality Control testing is specified, if, in their opinion, such testing 
is necessary to determine that their methods are sufficient to construct a compliant 
work product. 
 
No separate payment will be made for Quality Control testing performed per this 
subpart.  The cost for Quality Control testing is incidental to the unit price bid for 
each applicable bid item. 
1.6 
CERTIFICATES OF COMPLIANCE 
 
CONTRACTOR may use certificates of compliance for certain materials and 
products in lieu of the specified sampling and testing procedures.  Submit 
certificates required to demonstrate proof of materials compliance with 
specification requirements.  Submit certificates in duplicate with each lot of 
material delivered to the Work or prior to delivery as required by the Contract.  
The lots so certified must be clearly identified by the certificate.  Certificates must 
be signed by an authorized representative of the producer or manufacturer, and 
state that the material complies in all respects with the requirements of the Contract 
Documents.  In the case of multiple shipments, each shipment must be 
accompanied or preceded by a Certificate of Compliance. 
 
The Certificate of Compliance must be accompanied by a certified copy of tests 
results or state that such test results are on file with the producer or manufacturer 
and must be furnished to OWNER on request.  The certificate must give the 
information specified for samples in Section 01300, the name and address of the 
organization performing the tests, the date of the tests, and the quantity of material 
shipped. 
 
Materials used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance may be sampled and 
tested at any time.  The fact that material is used on the basis of a Certificate of

Compliance does not relieve CONTRACTOR of responsibility for incorporating 
material in the Work which conforms to the requirements of the Contract.  Any 
such material not conforming to such requirements will be subject to rejection, 
whether in place or not.

Ultimately, CONTRACTOR shall provide a subgrade surface that 
warrants preparation of a subgrade acceptance certification by the 
geosynthetics liner installer and CQA Monitor.  Certification may be 
issued in phases to facilitate project completion.  
3.3 
FIELD QUALITY ASSURANCE (BY OWNER) 
 
The OWNER will collect samples of subgrade materials to determine the 
material’s optimum moisture content and maximum density (ASTM D 698). 
 
The OWNER will measure in-place density and moisture content of the subgrade 
(by one or more of the following methods:  ASTM D 2922, ASTM D 1556, ASTM 
D 2216, and ASTM D 3017), at the frequencies outlined in the CQA Plan. 
 
For liner subgrade excavated into native soil (i.e., not including filled areas) 
conditions only, if in the opinion of the CQA Monitor the subgrade is comprised 
of unyielding, firm soils, the testing requirements listed above in paragraph (B) 
may be replaced with the following field verification test: 
1. 
Following smooth drum compaction of the subgrade, the CQA 
Monitor and OWNER shall observe the CONTRACTOR “proof-
rolling” the subgrade with a fully-loaded scraper.  If the subgrade 
appears firm and no “pumping” or soft spots areas are observed, the 
CQA Monitor can certify that the subgrade soils are approved for 
placement. 
 
CONTRACTOR shall cooperate fully with the OWNER in performing 
compaction control tests.  Include costs for assistance in unit or lump sum prices.

outlined in ASTM D2657.  Perform fusion joining of pipe and fittings in 
accordance with the procedures established by the pipe manufacturer. Of particular 
importance is the use of proper interface pressures and heater plate temperatures.  
Ensure that shavings generated during butt surface preparation are cleaned from 
interior of piping prior to fusing. 
 
Use fusion pressures, temperatures, and cycle times according to pipe 
manufacturer’s recommendations.  Use personnel adequately trained and qualified 
in the technique involved. 
 
Do not perform pipe fusion in water when trench conditions are unsuitable for the 
work.  Keep water out of the trench until joining is completed.  Secure open ends 
of pipe and close valves when work is not in progress, so that no trench water, 
earth, or other substance will enter the pipe or the fittings.  Plug or cap or valve 
pipe ends left for future connections. 
 
Clear welding and grade sites, if necessary, to provide enough space for pipe 
storage and fusion.  Keep the site free of rocks, stumps, and debris which could 
cut, scar, or gouge the pipe.  In order to allow the joining operation to continue in 
adverse weather conditions, a shelter may be required for the joining machine.  
Particular caution should be exercised to prevent the pipe from becoming wet, and 
to prevent the heater plate from coming in contact with water. 
 
Polyethylene Fusion Qualification:  All pipe fusion must be performed by a 
supplier, or a factory supplied and/or certified fusion operator. 
 
Provide training sessions as required to train welding personnel, and quality 
control personnel in polyethylene fusion machine operation as applicable for the 
project.  Only fully trained personnel will be allowed to perform the installation, 
supervision, or inspection of polyethylene-fusion joints.  Submit a listing of those 
authorized/instructed for polyethylene fusion welding for review by the OWNER.  
Make all on-site training sessions during this contract available to quality 
assurance personnel at no charge to the OWNER.

EXECUTION 
 
3.1 
EXAMINATION 
 
Conformance Testing 
1. 
The CQA ENGINEER shall collect samples of geomembrane 
for conformance testing, as outlined in the CQA Plan and as described 
herein. 
2. 
The following tests shall be performed by the CQA Consultant 
using the test methods listed in Table 02778-2 at the frequency specified 
in the CQA Plan: 
 
Thickness (minimum); 
 Density; 
 
Tensile properties (all); and 
 Carbon black content. 
3. 
Geomembrane shall be rejected if conformance test results do 
not meet or exceed the values presented in Table 02778-2. 
 
3.2 
INSTALLATION 
 
Panel Layout 
1. 
Any anticipated modification to the geomembrane panel layout, 
particularly at penetrations, or other critical locations should be 
presented to the OWNER in writing or by drawing by the Geosynthetic 
Installer a minimum of three (3) working days in advance of the Work 
requiring the modification.       
 
Panel Nomenclature 
1. 
A field panel is defined as a unit of geomembrane that is to be 
seamed in the field (i.e., a field panel is a roll or a portion of roll cut in 
the field). 
2. 
Identify each field panel with an identification code (number or 
letter-number) consistent with Geosynthetics Installer’s layout plan.  
This identification code shall be agreed upon by the OWNER, 
Geosynthetic Installer, and CQA ENGINEER.

Glendale Landfill 
Division 2 
 
 
 
April 2024 
Section 02778 
 
Page 17 of 30 
GEOMEMBRANE 
3. 
The Geosynthetics Installer shall be responsible for labeling 
each panel as it is installed in bold print which is easily visible.  The 
labels shall include, as a minimum: identification code, which indicates 
the sequence of deployment, the roll number from which the panel was 
obtained and the date the panel was placed.  The OWNER may refuse 
to accept any panel, portion of panel, or roll which is not correctly 
labeled. 
 
Protection 
1. 
Do not use equipment or tools that damage geomembrane or 
GCL by handling, trafficking, excessive tear, leakage of hydrocarbons, 
or other means. 
2. 
Ensure prepared surface underlying geomembrane and GCL has 
not deteriorated since previous acceptance, and remains acceptable 
immediately prior to geomembrane and GCL deployment. 
3. 
Keep geosynthetic elements immediately underlying the 
geomembrane clean and free of debris. 
4. 
Do not permit personnel to smoke or wear damaging shoes while 
working on geomembrane. 
5. 
Unroll panels in a manner which does not cause excessive 
scratches or crimps in geomembrane and does not damage the 
underlying GCL or subgrade.  Rub sheets must be used when deploying 
textured geomembrane over GCL or prepared subgrade.   
6. 
Place panels in a manner which minimizes wrinkles (especially 
differential wrinkles between adjacent panels.). 
7. 
Prevent wind uplift by providing adequate temporary loading 
and/or anchoring (e.g., sandbags, tires) that will not damage 
geomembrane.  In case of high winds, continuous loading along panel 
edges is recommended.  It is the responsibility of the Geosynthetic 
Installer to prevent wind damage to liner components. 
8. 
Minimize direct contact with geomembrane. 
9. 
Protect geomembrane in areas where excessive traffic is 
expected with geotextiles, extra geomembrane, or other suitable 
materials, as approved by the CQA ENGINEER.

GEOMEMBRANE 
10. 
Install material to account for shrinkage and contraction while 
avoiding wrinkles.  Install material stress-free with no bridging before 
it is covered.  Add material as needed to avoid bridging. 
11. 
Do not drive over the GCL, unless a proper demonstration has 
been performed to assure survivability of the GCL 
 
Field Panel Deployment 
1. 
Install field panels at locations indicated on the Geosynthetics 
Installer’s layout plan, as approved by OWNER. 
2. 
Replace damaged (torn, twisted, or crimped) field panels, or 
portions thereof, at no cost to OWNER.  Repair lesser damage according 
to Article 3.2.I of this Section.  CQA ENGINEER shall determine if 
material is to be repaired or replaced. 
3. 
Remove damaged panels or portions of damaged panels which 
have been rejected from Work area. 
4. 
Do not deploy more geomembrane field panels in one day than 
can be seamed during that day. 
 
Seam Layout 
1. 
When possible, orient seams parallel to line of maximum slope 
(i.e., oriented along, not across or at an angle to the slope). 
2. 
No horizontal seam shall be on a slope or less than 5 feet (1.5m) 
from the toe of a slope, without prior acceptance by the CQA 
ENGINEER. 
3. 
Do not locate seams in areas of potential stress concentrations, 
unless otherwise authorized by OWNER. 
4. 
In general, maximize lengths of field panels and minimize 
number of field seams. 
5. 
Use seam numbering system compatible with panel numbering 
system. 
 
Temporary Bonding 
1. 
Hot air device (“Lister”) may be used to temporarily bond 
geomembrane panels that are to be extrusion welded.

Glendale Landfill 
Division 2 
 
 
 
April 2024 
Section 02778 
 
Page 19 of 30 
GEOMEMBRANE 
2. 
Do not damage geomembrane when temporarily bonding 
adjacent panels.  Apply minimal amount of heat to lightly tack 
geomembrane panels together.  Control temperature of hot air at nozzle 
of any temporary welding apparatus to prevent damage to 
geomembrane. 
3. 
Do not use solvent or adhesive unless product is approved for 
use, in writing, by the OWNER.   
 
Seaming Methods 
Approved processes for field seaming are extrusion welding and dual-track 
fusion welding.  Proposed alternate processes shall be documented and 
submitted to OWNER for approval. 
1. 
Align geomembrane panels to have a nominal overlap of 3 
inches for extrusion welding and 4 inches for fusion welding.  The 
Geosynthetics Installation CONTRACTOR shall indicate the lap by 
making reference marks prior to seaming at an interval of not more than 
fifty (50) feet.  The location and type of reference mark shall be agreed 
upon by all parties at the pre-construction meeting. 
2. 
After seaming operations have occurred, the remaining 
overlap(s) shall be enough to destructively test.  If insufficient overlap 
for destructive testing is determined to exist on a portion of a seam, that 
portion of the seam shall be reconstructed by the procedures described 
in Article 3.2.I of this Section. 
3. 
Use double-fusion welding as primary method of seaming 
adjacent field panels. 
 
For cross seam tees associated with fusion welding, extrusion weld to a 
minimum distance of 4 inches on each side of tee.  The edge of the cross seam 
is ground to an incline prior to welding. 
 Place electric generator on a smooth base such that no damage occurs to 
geomembrane.  
 
Place a protective layer (e.g., insulating plate or fabric) beneath hot welding 
apparatus after usage. 
 When subgrade conditions dictate, use a movable protective layer directly 
below each overlap of geomembrane that is to be seamed to prevent buildup 
of moisture between sheets and prevent debris from collecting around 
pressure rollers.

Section 02778 
 
Page 20 of 30 
GEOMEMBRANE 
4. 
Use conventional extrusion welding as a secondary method for 
seaming between adjacent panels and as a primary method of welding 
for detail and repair Work. 
 
Purge heat-degraded extrudate from barrel of extruder under the following 
conditions: 
1) 
Prior to beginning a seam; and 
2) 
Whenever extruder has been inactive. 
 Place electric generator on a smooth base such that no damage occurs to 
geomembrane. 
 
Place a smooth insulating plate or fabric beneath hot welding apparatus after 
usage. 
 Use clean and dry welding rods or extrudate pellets. 
 
Complete grinding process without damaging geomembrane according to 
manufacturer’s instructions within 1 hour of seaming operation. 
 
Minimize exposed grinding marks adjacent to an extrusion weld.  Do not 
extend exposed grinding marks more than 1/4 inch from seam area.  The 
OWNER may request that all abraded areas be covered with extrudate. 
 Extrusion weld all cross seam tees to a minimize distance of 4 inches on each 
side of the tee. 
 
Seaming Procedures 
1. 
General Seaming Procedures; Ensure That: 
 
Spare operable seaming equipment is on-site at all times; 
 Equipment used for seaming will not damage the geomembrane; 
 
The electric generator is placed on a smooth base such that no damage occurs 
to the geomembrane; 
 A smooth insulating plate or fabric is placed beneath the hot welding 
apparatus after usage; 
 
The geomembrane is protected from damage in heavily trafficked areas, using 
a method approved by the CQA ENGINEER; 
 
No solvent or adhesive is used unless the product is approved in writing by 
the OWNER prior to use;

Section 02778 
 
Page 21 of 30 
GEOMEMBRANE 
 Areas to be seamed shall be cleaned and free of moisture, debris, or any 
marking on the geomembrane; 
 Use a flat board, a conveyor belt, or similar hard surface directly under the 
seam overlap to achieve proper support, if required; 
 
Cut fishmouths or wrinkles at the seam overlap 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 six (6) inches beyond the cut in all directions; 
 
Provide adequate illumination if seaming operations are carried out at night; 
 Extend seaming to the outside edge of panels placed in the anchor trench; 
 
No field seaming shall be performed without the Seaming Supervisor being 
present; and 
 The welding process (Restart/Reseaming procedures) shall start with grinding 
the existing seam and rewelding a new seam.  Welding shall commence where 
the grinding started and must overlap the previous seam by at least two (2) 
inches.  Reseaming over an existing seam without regrinding shall not be 
permitted. 
 
Repair Procedures 
1. 
All seams and non-seam areas of the geomembrane shall be 
inspected by the CQA Officer for defects, holes, blisters, undispersed 
raw materials, and any sign of contamination by foreign matter.  
Because light reflected by the geomembrane helps to detect defects, the 
surface of the geomembrane shall be clean at the time of inspection.  
The geomembrane surface shall be brushed, blown, or washed by the 
Installer if the amount of dust or mud inhibits inspection.  The CQA 
Officer shall decide if cleaning of the geomembrane is needed to 
facilitate inspection. 
2. 
Repair portions of geomembrane exhibiting a flaw, or failing a 
destructive or nondestructive test. 
3. 
Final decision as to appropriate repair procedure shall be agreed 
upon between OWNER, Geosynthetics Installation CONTRACTOR, 
and CQA ENGINEER. 
4. 
Available repair procedures include the following:

all parties during the pre-construction meeting.  Wrinkles larger than that 
specified shall be cut and seamed, if the overlap is sufficient, or cut and 
patched or capped. 
5. 
For any repair method, satisfy the following: 
 
Surfaces of the geomembrane that are to be repaired using extrusion methods 
shall be abraded no more than one (1) hour prior to the repair.  No more than 
10 percent of the thickness shall be removed. 
 Ensure surfaces are clean and dry at time of repair. 
 
Ensure seaming equipment used in repairing procedures meets requirements 
of this section. 
 Extend patches or caps at least 6 inches beyond edge of defect.  Round corners 
of patches with a radius of approximately 3 inches. 
6. 
Do not place overlying layers over locations which have been 
repaired until appropriately passing nondestructive and laboratory test 
results are obtained.

FIELD QUALITY CONTROL 
 
Visual Inspection 
1. 
CQA ENGINEER shall examine seam and non-seam areas of 
geomembrane for identification of defects, holes, blisters, undispersed 
raw materials, and any sign of contamination by foreign matter. 
2. 
Clean and wash geomembrane surface if CQA ENGINEER 
determines that the amount of dust or mud inhibits examination. 
3. 
Do not seam any geomembrane panels that have not been 
examined for flaws by CQA ENGINEER. 
4. 
Nondestructively test each suspect location of seam and non-
seam areas using methods described in Article 3.3.C of this Section, as 
appropriate.

5. 
Overlap seam of geomembrane pieces as indicated in Article 3.2 
G of the Section. 
6. 
Make trial seam sample at least 5 feet long by 1 foot wide (after 
seaming) with seam centered lengthwise. 
7. 
Cut two specimens from sample with a 1-inch wide die.  These 
specimen locations shall be selected randomly along the trial seam 
sample by the CQA ENGINEER.  Test specimens in peel using a field 
tensiometer.  The tensiometer shall be capable of maintaining a constant 
jaw separation rate of 2 inches per minute.  These tests shall not fail 
according to criteria in Table 02778-2. 
8. 
If a specimen fails, repeat the entire operation.  If the additional 
specimen fails, do not use seaming apparatus and seamer until the 
deficiencies are corrected and two consecutive successful trial seams are 
achieved. 
9. 
Cut remainder of successful trial seam into three pieces; one to 
be retained in OWNER’s archives, one to be retained by Geosynthetics 
Installation CONTRACTOR, and one to be retained by CQA 
ENGINEER for possible laboratory testing.  Alternatively, if required 
by OWNER, remaining portion of trial seam sample may be subjected 
to destructive testing as discussed in Article 3.3.D of this Section. 
 
Nondestructive Seam Testing 
1. 
General 
 
The purpose of nondestructive tests is to check the continuity of the seams.  
It does not provide quantitative information on seam strength.  
Nondestructively test field seams over their full length using a vacuum test 
unit, air pressure (for double fusion seams only), or other method approved 
by the CQA ENGINEER.  Perform nondestructive testing as seaming Work 
progresses, not at the completion of all field seaming. 
 
2. 
Vacuum Testing 
 
Energize vacuum pump and reduce tank pressure to approximately 5 psi (10 
inches of mercury (in Hg)) gauge pressure. 
 Wet strip of seam area approximately 12 inches by 48 inches with soapy 
solution.

GEOMEMBRANE 
 
Place box over wetted area. 
 Close bleed valve and open vacuum valve. 
 
Ensure that a leak tight seal is created. 
 
For a period of not less than 10 seconds, apply vacuum and examine seam 
area through viewing window for presence of soap bubbles. 
 If no bubbles appear within 10 seconds, close vacuum valve and open bleed 
valve, move box over to next adjoining area with a minimize 3-inch overlap 
and repeat process. 
 Mark and repair areas where soap bubbles appear in accordance with Article 
3.2.I of this Section. 
3. 
Air Pressure Testing (for double fusion seam only) 
 
Temporarily seal both ends of seam to be tested using locking pliers or other 
similar devices. 
 Insert needle or other approved pressure feed device into air channel created 
by fusion weld. 
 
Place a protective layer between air pump and geomembrane. 
 Pressurize air channel to a pressure of approximately 30 psi.  Close valve and 
allow pressure to stabilize for approximately 2 minutes.  Ensure after 2-
minute stabilization period that the pressure is between 27 and 33 psi. 
 
Observe the air pressure 5 minutes after the initial 2-minute stabilization 
period ends.  If pressure loss exceeds 3 psi or the pressure does not stabilize, 
locate the faulty area and repair in accordance with Article 3.2.I of this 
Section. 
 
Once pressure testing is completed, cut end of tested seam area opposite to 
needle insertion end to verify continuity of the air channel.  If air does not 
escape, locate blockage and retest unpressurized area.  Repair cut end of air 
channel in accordance with Article 3.2.I of this Section. 
 Remove needle or other approved pressure feed device and seal hole in 
geomembrane with extrusion weld.

strip material shall be composed of the same type and thickness geomembrane 
as the geomembrane to be capped. 
 CQA ENGINEER shall observe cap stripping operations for uniformity and 
completeness. 
 
Destructive Seam Testing 
1. 
General 
 
The purpose of destructive seam testing is to evaluate seam strength.  Perform 
destructive seam tests as seaming progresses, not at the completion of all field 
work.  A failed destructive seam sample shall result if grips of testing machine 
cannot be closed on sample test flap due to excessive temporary welding. 
2. 
Frequency 
 
A minimum frequency of one test location per 1,000 feet of seam length 
performed by each welder.  This minimum frequency is to be determined as 
an average taken throughout the entire facility. 
 OWNER reserves the right to increase the frequency of testing in accordance 
with performance results of samples previously tested. 
3. 
Sampling Procedures 
 
Cut samples at locations as directed by CQA ENGINEER.  CQA ENGINEER 
shall number each sample and record sample number and location on the 
panel layout Drawing. 
 Repair holes in geomembrane resulting from destructive seam sampling 
immediately in accordance with repair procedures described in Article 3.2.I 
of this Section. 
 
Nondestructively test continuity of new seams in the repaired area according 
to Article 3.3.C of this Section. 
4. 
Sample Dimensions 
Take the following two types of samples at each sampling location: 
 
Take two samples for field testing.  Cut each of these samples with a 1-inch-
wide die, with seam centered parallel to width.  The distance between these 
two samples shall be 42 inches.  If both samples pass the field test described 
in Article 3.3 D of this Section, take a sample for laboratory testing as 
described in paragraph b below.

GEOMEMBRANE 
 The sample for laboratory testing shall be located between the samples cut for 
field testing.  Cut sample for laboratory testing 12 inches wide by 42 inches 
long with seam centered lengthwise.  Cut this sample into three parts.  CQA 
ENGINEER shall distribute the parts as follows: 
1) 
One 
portion 
to 
Geosynthetics 
Installation 
CONTRACTOR for optional laboratory testing, 12 
inches by 12 inches. 
2) 
One portion to Geosynthetic Quality Assurance 
Laboratory for testing, 12 inches by 18 inches. 
3) 
One portion to OWNER for archive storage, 12 inches 
by 12 inches. 
4) 
Final determination of sample sizes shall be agreed upon 
at the pre-construction meeting. 
5. 
Field Testing 
 
Test the two 1-inch-wide strips described in Article 3.3.D of this Section for 
peel strength.  Use a tensiometer as described in paragraph (b) below to 
conduct these tests.  These tests shall exceed the strength criteria in Table 
02278-2. 
 Use a tensiometer capable of maintaining a constant jaw separation rate of 
two inches per minute. 
 
Test field samples only under CQA ENGINEER’s observation. 
 If test sample passes in accordance with the Section, the seam qualifies for 
laboratory testing.  If any field test sample fails to pass, the follow procedures 
outlined in Article 3.3.D of this Section. 
 
Final judgment regarding seam acceptability, based on failure criteria in these 
specifications, rests with CQA ENGINEER.  
6. 
Destructive Test Failure Procedures  
Apply following procedures when a sample fails destructive testing, 
when conducted by CQA Laboratory or by the Geosynthetics 
CONTRACTOR using a field tensiometer. 
 
Geosynthetics CONTRACTOR has the following options: 
1) 
Repair seam between any two passing destructive test 
locations, or 
2) 
Trace welding path to an intermediate point (10 feet 
minimum from point of failed test in each direction) and 
take a small sample at each location with a 1-inch-wide 
die for an additional field test.  If these additional samples 
pass the test, take full laboratory samples.  If these

Page 28 of 30 
GEOMEMBRANE 
laboratory samples pass the tests, repair seam between 
these locations.  If either sample fails, repeat process to 
establish zone in which seam should be repaired. 
a) 
Acceptable repaired seams shall be bound by two 
locations from which samples passing laboratory 
destructive tests have been taken.  Passing 
laboratory destructive tests of trial seam samples, 
taken as indicated in Article 3.3.D of this Section, 
may be used as a boundary for the failing seam.  
In cases exceeding 150 feet of repaired seam, a 
sample taken from the zone in which seam has 
been repaired shall pass destructive testing.  
Make repairs in accordance with Article 3.2.I of 
this Section. 
b) 
When a sample fails, OWNER may require 
additional testing of seams that were welded by 
the same welder and/or welding apparatus during 
the same time shift. 
 
Repair Verification 
1. 
Nondestructively test each repair using methods described in 
Article 3.3.C of this Section, as appropriate.  CQA ENGINEER shall 
number and log each repair. 
2. 
Passing nondestructive test results indicate an adequate repair. 
3. 
Repairs more than 150 feet long require destructive test 
sampling, in accordance with Article 3.3.D of this Section. 
4. 
Failed destructive or nondestructive tests indicate that the repair 
shall be redone and retested until a passing test results. 
 
Large Wrinkles 
Wrinkles are considered to be large when a geomembrane can be folded over 
onto itself. 
1. 
Cut and reseam all wrinkles identified by CQA ENGINEER.  
Test repair seams in accordance with Article 3.3.E of this Section. 
3.4

SUBGRADE CONFORMANCE REVIEW 
 
Before the geomembrane installation begins, the CQA ENGINEER shall verify 
that: 
 
1. 
A qualified land surveyor has verified all lines and grades; 
2. 
A qualified engineer has verified that the supporting subgrade meets all 
requirements in the project specifications; 
3. 
The surface to be lined has been rolled, compacted, or handworked so 
as to be free of irregularities, protrusions, loose soil, and abrupt changes 
in grade; 
4. 
Round edges of Anchor Trenches or cushion with geotextiles; 
5. 
The surface to be lined does not contain stones which may be damaging 
to the geosynthetics; 
6. 
There is no area excessively softened by high water content; 
7. 
The Geosynthetic Installer, on a daily basis, shall certify in writing that 
the surface on which the geosynthetics will be installed is acceptable.  
A certificate of acceptance shall be given to the Geosynthetic Installer 
and to the CQA ENGINEER prior to commencement of liner 
deployment in the area under consideration.  The OWNER shall be 
given a copy of this certificate by the CQA ENGINEER; 
8. 
After the supporting subgrade has been accepted by the Geosynthetic 
Installer, it is the Geosynthetic Installer’s responsibility to indicate to 
the OWNER any change in the support subgrade condition that may 
require repair Work.  The surface to be lined must exhibit adequate 
strength, as required by the OWNER, prior to liner deployment.  Any 
damage to the subgrade caused by installation activities shall be repaired 
at the Geosynthetic Installer’s expense.  The OWNER may consult the 
CQA ENGINEER regarding the need for repairs.  If the CQA 
ENGINEER concurs with the Geosynthetic Installer, the OWNER shall 
ensure that the supporting subgrade is repaired; and 
9. 
At any time before or during the liner installation, the CQA ENGINEER 
shall indicate to the OWNER any locations, which may not be 
adequately prepared for the liner.

3.4 
JOINING 
 
Overlaps 
1. 
Using the lapline and matchline as guides, overlap a minimum of 
6 inches along length and 18 inches along width (butt seams). 
2. 
Overlap a minimum of 18 inches along width and in sump areas. 
3. 
Overlaps or seams are not allowed perpendicular (horizontal 
seams) to slopes greater than 10 percent.  In these areas, GCLs must be 
placed in one piece along the entire slope. 
4. 
If length of slope is greater than manufactured length, horizontal 
seams staggered between adjacent panels will be allowed at the direction 
of the OWNER. 
 
Seams 
1. 
Spread granular bentonite at the rate of 4 ounces per lineal foot of 
overlap.  Bentonite along overlaps parallel to the length of the roll is not 
required if manufacturer can document (through GRI GCL-3 or similar 
testing) that the edges of the roll are manufactured in a manner such that 
permeability at the overlaps is no greater than the permeability of the GCL 
material.  Approval to forego the use of additional bentonite along seams 
must be received in writing from the design ENGINEER before 
installation begins. 
2. 
Bentonite shall be same material used in the GCL.

RESTRAINING AND PROTECTING 
 
Restrain GCL against wind using sandbags filled with fine-grained material, or other 
approved methods.  Protect GCL from water intrusion in the event of precipitation. 
 
Sandbags must remain until GCL is covered. 
 
GCL must be fully covered with geomembrane the day it is installed.  No more than 
two acres will be exposed prior to covering to minimize GCL hydration from wet 
weather.  If overlying geomembrane is not seamed the same day, the Monitor may 
request geomembrane edges to be pulled back to inspect GCL at no additional cost 
to OWNER.  Torn, punctured, or hydrated material shall be removed and replaced in 
accordance with Section 3.6 at no additional cost to OWNER. 
 
GCL bentonite material that becomes hydrated to a moisture content greater than 40 
percent before being covered by a seamed geomembrane may be rejected.  Rejected 
material shall be removed and replaced at no additional cost to the OWNER. 
3.6 
REPAIR PROCEDURES 
 
Remove punctured, torn, or hydrated material, and as instructed by the CQA 
Monitor. 
 
Repair subgrade, if necessary. 
 
Cover area with same type of GCL material with same side up. 
 
Overlap defective area by a minimum of 12 inches in all directions. 
 
Adhesion tape or wood glue may be used to keep patch in place. 
 
Apply granular bentonite as with normal overlaps at 4 ounces per linear foot.

Exhibit F – Clarifications 
 
1. GMP is based on the following documents: 
a. Project Specifications dated April 2024 
b. Project Plans dated 4/26/2024 
2. GMP quantities are based on Rummel’s take-offs, which vary from Engineer’s Quantities 
3. Bench Liner Termination has been priced per detail 9/C501; PLEASE NOTE 
a. Bench liner termination includes 
i. Grading slopes above termination – with this detail, there is not a way to grade 
slope above termination during phase 3/phase 4.  These slopes are subject to 
erosion/rilling which will need to be addressed during phase 3/phase 4. 
ii. GCL and Liner material and installation across bench and up slope approximate 
8’.  These quantities were not included in the main GCL and Geomembrane 
quantities. 
iii. Sacrificial HDPE cap to protect GCL.  Any future moisture 
penetration/absorption of GCL due to water infiltration from upslope which 
may require GCL repairs/replacements would be considered extra work or work 
to be done under future phases. 
iv. Plywood and snow fence protection. 
4. LCRS drain rock is ASTM No. 4 rock which might differ slightly from specification. 
5. Owner’s contingency is 5% of DCC 
6. Contractor’s contingency is cover any possible geosynthetic material increases due to continued 
supply chain concerns.
