1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Existing Project Description
Devils Lake is a natural lake located south of the City of Devils Lake, located in Ramsey County in the
northeast portion of North Dakota. Since 1940 the lake has risen fifty-two feet, with almost twentynine feet of rise since 1993. In March 1993 Devils Lake had a surface area of 44,230 acres. At its
April 30, 2010 elevation (1452.63feet NAVD88) Devils Lake covered about 177,100 acres. During that
same period the volume of water in Devils Lake had grown by more than six times. The current lake
elevation (May 11, 2011) is 1454.0 feet. All elevations in this report are in feet and referenced to
North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) unless specifically stated otherwise. The
conversion from NAVD88 to National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29) in the area of this
project is: NGVD29 = NAVD88 -1.17 feet.
Devils Lake naturally spills into Stump Lake (located east of Devils Lake) at an elevation of
approximately 1447.7. Since water began flowing into Stump Lake in 1999, Stump Lake has now
been filled and has become part of Devils Lake. At its current water levels, Devils Lake has no natural
outlet. At an elevation of 1459.2 the lake overtops the high point in Tolna Coulee and begins to spill
through the coulee into the Sheyenne River, a tributary of the Red River of the North. Tolna Coulee
is located at the southwest end of what was Stump Lake. Devils Lake has reached its spill elevation
and overflowed into the Sheyenne and Red Rivers at least twice during the past 4,000 years. The
lake last spilled into the Sheyenne River less than 2,000 years ago. At its spill elevation, Devils Lake
covers more than 261,000 acres.
The State of North Dakota completed construction of an outlet to allow water from the West Bay of
Devils Lake to flow into the Sheyenne River in the summer of 2005. The outlet is made up of two
pump stations, a series of buried pipelines and open channels, a sand filter, three siphons, a gated
control structure and a stilling basin. The original pump capacity of the system was 100 cubic feet
per second (cfs). Modifications to increase the pump capacity to 250 cfs were approved by the North
Dakota State Engineer in June 2010. Discharge from the outlet is limited by the 600 cfs channel
capacity of the upper Sheyenne River and the North Dakota Department of Healths maximum
allowed concentration level of 750 milligrams per liter of sulfate at the discharge point in the
Sheyenne River. The West Bay of Devils Lake is located on the other side of Devils Lake from the
Tolna Coulee project and is several miles from Tolna Coulee. This information is provided only for
situational awareness, since it adds flow to the Sheyenne River upstream of the confluence of Tolna
Coulee and the Sheyenne River.
At the time of this project, the State of North Dakota is planning to expand its west end pumped
outlet with an additional capacity of 100 cfs and construct an east end pumped outlet from East
Devils Lake with a capacity of 350 cfs, which is currently planned to transport water to Tolna Coulee,
just downstream of the high point in the coulee. The east end pumped outlet would be located in
the vicinity of the Tolna Coulee project, but would not impact the design of the Tolna Coulee project
since it would discharge into Tolna Coulee downstream of the project.

1.2 Current Conditions of Tolna Coulee

Tolna Coulee is a natural outlet from the Devils Lake basin. There is a significant layer of silts and
organic material with grassy vegetation at the bottom of Tolna Coulee that will have to be removed
before an embankment and/or or structure can be constructed. This layer of silt and organic material
varies in thickness to as much as 14 feet near the middle of the coulee. Under this soft material is a
1

layer of sand and boulders, with stiff clay underneath. Due to the high ground water (at or near the
ground surface) and the seepage of groundwater from the sides of the coulee near the toe of the
coulee slopes, dewatering during construction will be required. Due to the rising lake level, a
cofferdam will be constructed on the east side of the project.

1.3 Purpose
The purpose of the Tolna Coulee project is to prevent catastrophic release of flows through Tolna
Coulee into the Sheyenne River. The State of North Dakota has also requested that the Corps of
Engineers include a control structure with the project to allow controlled discharge down to
elevation 1446 feet NGVD29 (1447.2 NAVD88). HQUSACE directed that Measures to control water
elevation or releases above or below 1458 will be borne by the non-Federal sponsor, including
engineering and design. (Note the elevation referenced in the HQ memo is referenced to NGVD29
Datum)

1.4 Authorization
The Tolna Coulee Advance Measures project is authorized under PL84-99, Flood Control and Coastal
Emergencies.

2 PROJECT FEATURES
2.1 Overview
The project includes: Construction of a sheet pile I-wall with a top elevation of 1467.2 (NAVD88), a
stoplog control structure with a stoplog crest elevation of 1459.2 and a top of concrete footing
elevation of 1447.2. The stoplog control structure includes concrete piers with 10 foot clear spacing
between them and a catwalk with overhead rail to allow removal of the stoplogs. Construction of
the sheet pile I-wall will require embankment to be constructed upstream and downstream of the Iwall. The embankment on the west side of the sheet pile I-wall between and the north bank of the
coulee and the north end of the structure will be ramped up to elevation 1467.2 to allow access to
the structure.

2.2 Sheet Pile I-Wall

A sheet pile I-wall will extend from the south side of the structure to the south bank of Tolna Coulee
and from the north side of the structure to the north bank of Tolna Coulee. This I-wall will have a top
elevation of 1467.2 (NAVD88), which includes 4 feet of freeboard to limit wave overtopping to
acceptable levels. The I-wall on the north side of the structure will include an embankment which
ramps up to the same elevation as the sheet pile on the downstream side of the sheetpile to allow
access to the control structure.

2.3 Embankments
Embankment construction and design is consistent with District guidance. Due to winter time
construction, 24 hour operation will be required to reduce the issues with frozen material.

2.3.1 Embankments next to I-wall.

Embankments will be constructed on the upstream and downstream sides of the sheet pile I-wall.
These embankments are intended to reduce the stick-up of the I-wall to acceptable levels and
eliminate the need for a king pile system to support the sheet pile wall. The tops of these
2

embankments will be at elevation 1461.2 south of the control structure and elevation 1463.2
north of the control structure.

2.3.2 Embankment north of the Control Structure

An embankment will be constructed to elevation 1463.2 on both sides of the sheet pile I-wall. The
fill on the downstream side of the sheet pile will be ramped up to the full height of the sheet pile Iwall to provide access to the control structure. The embankment on the upstream side of the
sheet pile will have a consistent top elevation of 1463.2.

2.4 Control Structure

A control structure will be constructed near the middle of the coulee and will use stoplogs to control
water levels in the Devils Lake basin down to elevation 1447.2 (NAVD88). The control structure
includes a concrete footing/sill, concrete abutments and wing walls, 11 concrete piers with 10 foot
clear openings/bays, and a full length catwalk with overhead monorail system to allow removal of
the stoplogs. The catwalk will be designed to allow access with an ATV and a trailer or cart, which is
expected to be used to haul stoplogs off the structure.

2.5 Riprap Erosion Protection

Riprap erosion protection will be placed both upstream and downstream of the structure. The riprap
on the lake side slopes of the embankment is sized for wave impact from Stump Lake.

2.6 Access Road

A permanent access road will be constructed from 33rd Street NE, down the hill to the structure. The
access road will be for maintenance purposes and to access the structure to remove stop logs. The
access road will have a maximum grade of 6% and it will be 20 wide with ditching along both sides.
Wide construction limits will be provided in the event the contractor wants to widen the road for
hauling materials to the project site.

2.7 Cofferdams
Due to the rising lake level, a cofferdam will be required on the east side (lake side) of the structure.
Since the work is expected to be completed in March, the lake is expected to be frozen for the
majority of the construction period, so riprap for erosion protection of the cofferdam will not be
required. A cofferdam design has been prepared to include in the plans as a suggestion and to assist
with preparation of estimates; however, the specifications will require the Contractor to design their
own cofferdam.
The cofferdam will not be the only line of protection from flows to the Sheyenne River and
downstream, as the existing Tolna Coulee high points will remain in place. Because the cofferdam
will be a non-critical structure, the actual height of the cofferdam will be up to the contractor and
will most likely depend on the contractors equipment protection needs. The contractor will submit a
cofferdam plan for USACE approval before the cofferdam is constructed.
The cofferdam and dewatering provides the dry working area needed to construct the embankments
under proper conditions or as near to proper conditions as can be expected in North Dakota in the
winter.

2.8 Previously Obtained Data

2.8.1 Topographic Data
Existing topographic data utilized for the design and drawings was from LIDAR and field survey
information performed by City of Devils lake when the maintenance excavation in the coulee was
performed. The project area was then surveyed manually by a State of North Dakota survey crew
in May 2011. The coordinate system and projection of the topographic mapping data is NAD83
(2007), North Dakota State Plane Coordinate System, North Zone (U.S. Survey Feet). The elevation
datum of the topographic mapping data is NAVD88 (U.S. Survey Feet).

2.8.2 Property Line Data

The deed for the existing city owned property around the project site was supplied by the City of
Devils Lake.

2.8.3 Related Construction Projects

2.8.3.1 Devils Lake City Embankments, Phase 2B and Phase 3
Levees near and around Devils Lake are being raised to an elevation of 1467.2. These projects
include levee raises, pump stations, and road raises and other work associated with protecting
the City of Devils Lake from the rising Lake Level. A design criterion for these projects was that
if a PMF occurred with an initial lake elevation of 1458.0, outflow through Tolna Coulee
(assuming no erosion) would limit the maximum lake elevation at Tolna Coulee to 1461.9. The
Tolna Coulee project must not increase the lake elevation for the PMF.
2.8.3.2 East Devils Lake Outlet
The North Dakota State Water Commission is planning to construct an outlet and channel from
East Devils Lake to Tolna Coulee. The route begins on East Devils Lake, runs east southeast 51/2 miles and outlets into Tolna Coulee. The outlet will discharge into Tolna Coulee
downstream from the control structure. The outlet plan consists of a pumping plant with
several pumps with the total capacity of 350 cubic feet per second (cfs).

2.9 Property Acquisitions and Adjacent Properties

The City of Devils Lake owns the property that this project will be constructed on. All work is being
done within the property owned by the City of Devils Lake.

5 HYDROLOGY AND HYDRAULICS

5.1 Introduction
Levees near and around Devils Lake are being raised to an elevation of 1467.2 ft. These projects
include levee raises, pump stations, and road raises and other work associated with protecting the
City of Devils Lake from the rising Lake Level. The top of embankment for these levee designs is
predicated on Tolna Coulee flowing into the Sheyenne River when the lake level at Tolna Coulee
exceeds elevation 1459.2 ft.
The following paragraphs provide a summary of the Hydraulic Design considerations for the Tolna
Coulee Project. Detailed information related to the Hydrology and Hydraulic design of the Tolna
Coulee Project can be found in the Hydrology/Hydraulics Appendix (Appendix C).

5.2 Straight Drop Structure

In consistency with flood protection efforts in the Devils Lake sub-basin, including the City of Devils
Lake Embankments and Roads Acting as Water Barriers, the Tolna Coulee control structure is
designed for a Inflow Design Flood (IDF) of Probable Maximum Flood ( PMF) with the lake starting
at full pool (Elevation 1459.2 ft).
The PMF peak lake elevation at Tolna Coulee for Without Project condition assuming Noerosion is 1463.2 ft with a peak discharge of approximately 3000 cfs. Design of the City of Devils
Lake Embankments is based on a peak lake level of 1463.2 ft at Tolna Coulee for a PMF inflow with
the lake starting at full pool (Elevation 1459.2 ft).
To cause no impacts to the design of the City of Devils Lake Embankments, the design discharge for
the structure at Tolna Coulee must not result in an increase to the peak still water level elevation
above 1463.2 ft at Tolna Coulee for a PMF inflow to Devils Lake on a starting pool elevation of
5

1459.2 ft. This corresponds to a minimum peak discharge of approximately 3000 cfs at a PMF peak
lake elevation of 1463.2 ft. Selection of a design discharge exceeding 3000 cfs would not cause
impacts to the design of the City of Devils Lake Embankments. A target design discharge greater than
approximately 3000 cfs was not pursued, as action is required at downstream communities for flows
less than 3,000 cfs.
Based on the assessment that substantial erosion could precede peak lake elevation for the design
event, the weir structure is sized to pass approximately 3000 cfs under free flow conditions at a peak
lake elevation of 1463.2 ft. Steady state hydraulic modeling and analysis using HEC-RAS version 4.1.0
was conducted to develop rating curves for with and without project conditions assuming NoErosion. The PMF inflow of 1.44 million acre-feet was routed on a daily time step using a with
project rating curve to ensure the structure does not result in an increase to the peak water surface
elevation of 1463.2 ft.
Tailwater Depth (d2) for the Tolna Coulee structure is assumed to be variable from 5 feet to 17.2 feet
for the design event as Tolna Coulee erodes. Tailwater elevations for structural and geotechnical
analysis of different headwater and tailwater combinations are provided in Appendix C.

5.3 Stilling Basin

For the design water surface elevation of 1463.2 ft, stop-logs at 1458.2 ft and 1459.2 ft are designed
to pass 5 ft and 4 ft of total head respectively. Drop heights from stop logs at elevation 1458.2 ft and
elevation 1459.2 ft are 13.6 ft and 14.6 ft respectively. Stilling basin requirements were determined
by analyzing peak design head at each invert elevation for both high and low tailwater scenarios.
Basin dimensions were calculated using experimental results and design guidelines proposed by
Donnelly and Blaisdell in the technical paper, Straight Drop Spillway Stilling Basin. The floor of the
designed stilling basin is at elevation 1444.6 ft. The required stilling basin is 49.5 feet long with 43.5
feet between the straight drop and the baffle blocks. The 16-inch square baffle blocks occupy
between 50% and 60% of the total stilling basin cross sectional area.

5.4 Composite I-Wall/Embankment

To be consistent with the approved Devils Lake Flood Risk Management Project Design Criteria and
Project Considerations Report, a freeboard requirement of the maximum of 3 feet or wind/wave
requirements was adopted for the Tolna Coulee structure.
Wind and wave impacts were analyzed using Coastal Engineering Manual and Shore Protection
Manual methodologies. For the City of Devils Lake Embankments project, wave analysis and design
following Shore Protection Manual methodology required that wave run-up be contained by the
embankments. Because run-up does not apply to vertical structures, guidance for allowable
overtopping from the Coastal Engineering Manual was used.
For a lake level of 1463.2 ft, Wind Setup of 0.4 feet, and significant wave height of 3.3 feet - 4 feet of
freeboard (top of structure elevation of 1467.2 ft) is provided to ensure the structure does not
exceed a No Damage overtopping discharge of 0.1 cfs/ft for the design event.

Riprap erosion protection is designed for locations on the Composite I-Wall/Embankment and
upstream and downstream of the spillway / stilling basin structure using applicable criteria.

6 GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING
6.1 General
This section provides the geotechnical engineering in support of the final design, specifications and
cost estimate for the Tolna Coulee Advance Measures project. The project includes: Construction of a
composite I-wall/embankment with a top elevation of 1467.2 (NAVD88), a stop log control structure
with a stop log crest elevation of 1458.2 for the 4 center bays and 1459.2 for the remainder of the
bays, and a top of concrete footing elevation of 1447.2. Construction of the sheet pile I-wall will
require embankment to be constructed upstream and downstream of the I-wall to limit stickup to
acceptable levels. An embankment with a top elevation of 1463.2 and will be constructed between
the north end of the structure and the north bank of the coulee, with a ramp to 1467.2 to allow
access to the structure. An embankment with a top elevation of 1461.2 and will be constructed
between the south end of the structure and the south bank of the coulee. Detailed information
related to the geotechnical design criteria, design cases, and other information related to
geotechnical design can be found in the Geotechnical Appendix (Appendix D).

7 CIVIL ENGINEERING
7.1 Introduction
This section summarizes the proposed layout, method of analyses, and support for preparation of
the plans, specifications, and cost estimate. The layout attempted to optimize the use of the existing
ground, avoid private property, and meet conditions needed to suit subsurface properties in an
effort to reduce overall cost. In specific, the civil portion of the project involved the design and
layout of embankments, site work, access roads, and site drainage. The embankment was utilized
around the structure and sheetpile to provide access, meet passive and uplift pressures, and
eliminate sliding of the structure. An embankment elevation of 1463.2 was followed on the north
side of the structure and an embankment elevation of 1461.2 was utilized on the south side of the
structure. A half mile long gravel road, turnaround, and parking spaces were designed to provide
access to the structure. In addition a storage yard was included for the storage of stop logs needed to
operate the closure structure. Lastly roadside ditching was utilized to convey drainage along its
natural path.

with the scope and limitations of American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Practice E 152705. The environmental site assessment has revealed no evidence of recognized environmental
conditions in connection with the subject properties.

8 STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING
8.1 General
The structural design of the Tolna coulee outlet project is comprised of five major components
stoplog control structure, including a walkway, overhead frame and monorail, pickup beam, and
stoplogs; upstream approach walls; downstream wing walls; and left and right bank I-walls. Detailed
information related to the structural design criteria, design loads, load cases, and other information
related to structural design can be found in the Structural Appendix (Appendix E).

8.2 Structure Design

Structural design of hydraulic structures is in accordance with EM 1110-2-2104 and EM 1110-2-2105
for reinforced concrete and structural steel, respectively. A single load factor of 1.7 plus hydraulic
factor of 1.3 are used for reinforced concrete. Structural design for non-hydraulic structures is in
accordance with ACI 318-05. The design of the walkway and other steel structural components are in
accordance with AISC Steel Construction Manual. Design information for the following structures can
be found in the Structural Appendix.

8.2.1 Stoplog Control Structure

The stoplog control structure is an approximately 66-feet wide, 162-feet long and 26-feet high
reinforced concrete structure. The structure consists of reinforced concrete side walls with a
reinforced concrete slab in between. There are 11 reinforced concrete piers to support the
walkway and stop logs. A sheetpile cutoff is included along the entire perimeter of the slab and is
tied to the adjacent sheetpile I-walls.

8.2.2 Retaining Walls and Wing Walls

There are 2 retaining walls on each side of the control structure on the upstream side and two
wing walls on the downstream side of the structure.

8.2.3 Sheet Pile I-wall

The sheet pile I-wall is designed as a cantilevered wall. The top of the sheet pile wall will be cut off
at the design elevation. A cap will not be installed on the sheet pile I-wall. The exposed height of

the sheet pile on the south embankment is 6 feet. The exposed height of the sheet pile on the
north embankment is 4 feet.

8.2.4 Walkway
A 5 foot wide (clear distance) walkway will be constructed across the entire width of the control
structure, and will be supported by the concrete piers. The walkway is intended to provide access
for inspection and for removal of the stoplogs. It must be wide enough to accommodate an ATV to
facilitate removal of the stoplogs.

8.2.5 Gantry Crane

A gantry crane with V-shaped steel wheels will run on angle iron tracks for the length of the
walkway. The gantry crane will support the hoist and pickup beam.

8.2.6 Lifting Beam

A lifting beam will be required to facilitate removal of the stoplogs. The latching mechanism will
be designed to work with the welded studs on the sides of the stoplogs. The lifting beam and
stoplogs will be specified as a system to minimize chances of the stoplogs and lifting beam not
working properly.

8.2.7 Stoplogs
The stoplogs will be constructed of steel and will be galvanized. Pickup will be by welded studs on
the sides of the stoplogs or by slots cut in the tops of the stoplogs.

8.3 Miscellaneous
8.3.1 Frost Protection
In general, a minimum of five feet of cover is maintained over the base of foundations for frost
protection.

9 MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

9.1 Mechanical Design
Mechanical design for the control structure is limited to the gantry crane and hoist system to be used
for removal of stop logs.

9.1.1 Gantry Crane and Hoist Selection

The control structure will be equipped with a gantry crane and hoist system to remove the
stoplogs from the stoplog slots.
The selected components include a gantry crane, and a manually operated chain hoist. The
gantry crane will ride on steel V-shaped wheels to allow easy travel without electric power. The
gantry crane will include a transverse I-beam to allow the hoist to travel sideways within the
frame since the stoplog slots are off-set from the centerline of the walkway. The manually
operated chain hoist was selected due to the lack of electric power at the site.
Gantry crane and hoist information, including loads used in the structural design and structural
calculations are presented in Appendix E.

10

9.2 Electrical Design

There is no electrical power at the site and there is no need for electric equipment or lights. The
hoists to be used to remove the stop logs are hand powered and all maintenance work and stop log
removal can be done during daylight hours so there is no need for lighting. If observation is needed
at night, portable light plants can be brought in to provide the necessary light.

10 CONSTRUCTABILITY
Information will be added to this section prior to the BCOE submittal.

10.1 Introduction
The compressed schedule for design and construction of the project resulting from the rising lake
levels will require that the majority of this project be constructed in the winter.

10.2 Sequence of Construction

10.3 Embankments
Due to the plan to construct the majority of this project during the winter months, an effort has been
made to minimize earthwork and limit the compaction requirements for embankment. For the
earthwork that is required, 24 hour operation during construction will be required to minimize issues
with freezing of the fill between lifts.

10.4 Structure
10.5 Coordination with Other Agencies

11 INSTRUMENTATION
Information will be added to this section prior to the BCOE submittal.

11.1 Monitoring Points

11.2 Construction Monitoring
11.3 Long-Term Performance Monitoring

12 COST ESTIMATE AND CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE

12.1 Cost Estimate
The cost estimate was prepared using MCACES Second Generation (MII) software, version 3.1, Build
2. The cost estimate is based on the acquisition plan, which includes the use of an IFB restricted to
small businesses. As such, it includes a subcontracting plan and prime contractor overhead rate that
would be likely for a small business. Productivity was adjusted within the estimate for certain items
to account for the impacts of cold weather and snow due to the requirement to complete the
majority of this project during the winter months. Contingencies were developed using the
abbreviated risk analysis spreadsheets developed by the Corps of Engineers Cost DX.

11

12.2 Construction Schedule

A construction schedule was developed for the project that shows that the project can be
constructed by March 12, 2012, assuming a NTP of 7 October 2011. This schedule, however, does
not include time for weather days, meaning that the Contractor will be expected to work through the
winter weather and make accommodations to their operations and planning to account for the
expected severe weather. The schedule also shows that multiple crews will be required to complete
the project on time.

INTRODUCTION

This section provides the geotechnical engineering in support of the final design,
specifications and cost estimate for Tolna Coulee Advance Measures. Geotechnical Design
consideration include determination of the geologic/geotechnical conditions, evaluation of
water control for working pad, procuring fill material, evaluation of the concrete stoplog
structure, concept design of a temporary cofferdam for construction in the dry, design of
concrete retaining T-walls, and analysis of the I-wall/embankment composite system.

D.2

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

This section specifically addresses the physiography, topography, structure and

hydrogeology in the Tolna Coulee region.

D.2.1

Physiography and Topography

Tolna Coulee, North Dakota, the proposed project site, lies at the west end of Stump
Lake along the western edge of Nelson County and the southern end of the Devils Lake
Basin. The coulee is approximately 14 miles in length to the point where it joins the
Sheyenne River. The Devils Lake sub-basin spills into the Red River of the North drainage
basin when its waters reach an approximate elevation of 1459.2 (1988 Datum).
The Devils Lake sub-basin encompasses 3,810 square miles, draining portions of nine
counties in North Dakota. Starting in the northern tier counties of North Dakota the basin
drains portions of Rolette, Towner, Cavalier, Pierce, Ramsey, Walsh, Benson, Eddy, and
Nelson counties. The basin terrain is characterized as undulating to rolling hills with many
prairie potholes and shallow lakes. The surface soils, composed primarily of the glacial
sediment, dip to the southwest and the closed Devils Lake Basin receives almost all the
runoff. The general ground surface in the project area ranges in elevation from 1400 Mean
Sea Level (msl) in low areas to over 1600 feet in the Blue and Devils Lake Mountains.
The project site is located on the floor of Tolna Coulee. The site gently dips toward
the east and Stump Lake. The site is located in the middle of two opposing dry washes that
have alluvial fans. A wetland consisting of cattails and open water lies between these fans.

D.2.2

General Geology

The overall generalized geology of the project area is fairly complex. Precambrian
Era basement gneissic terrain is covered by a thick sequence of Paleozoic and Mesozoic Era
sedimentary rock. This rock is in turn covered by a relatively thin mantle of Quaternary
sediment, including; glacial, glacio-lacustrine, and glacio-fluvial sediment belonging to the
Pleistocene Coleharbor Group. The glacial sediment of the surrounding uplands is covered
Design Documentation Report Tolna Coulee Advance Measures
100% Final Document

D-1
Geotechnical Design and Geology

by a very thin veneer of Holocene sediment that was developed on the existing glacial
surface.
The uppermost unit of Mesozoic rock is the Cretaceous Period Pierre Shale
Formation which is directly overlain by glacial deposits and/or sand and gravel of the
Spiritwood Aquifer. The Pierre Shale was a source rock for much of the glacial material.
The Pierre Shale surface relief was caused by pre-glacial weathering and drainage
development on its surface. The pre-glacial Cannonball River Valley lies near or beneath the
project area, and has been filled by glacial sediment from several advances of ice.
Precambrian and sedimentary rock of the Mesozoic and Paleozoic Eras lie beneath the
influence of the proposed project and will not be discussed further detail.
Holocene era sediments deposited in the coulee itself are a complex of interbedded
soils eroded from the surrounding uplands. These sediments are derived from alluvial fans in
the coulee, from lacustrine and palustrine processes on the flat coulee bottom and from
fluvial processes during times of flow in the coulee.

D.2.3

Structure

The project area is located toward the eastern edge of the Williston Basin and on the
western flank of the Superior Craton. The surface of the Precambrian basement rock is
dipping west-southwest at about 30 to 35 feet per mile (Hobbs and Bluemle 1987). The
Precambrian surface is at approximately 1,900 feet below sea level in the project area. The
Paleozoic and Mesozoic Formations thicken westward toward the Williston basin and
conform to the Precambrian surface. In the project area the Paleozoic and Mesozoic
Formations are approximately 3,000 feet in thickness.

D.2.4

Site Hydrogeology

Hydrogeology in the project area is fairly complex. It is not clear how much
interconnectivity there is between the current Devils Lake and the underlying Spiritwood
Aquifer. The Spiritwood Aquifer occupies the pre-glacial Cannonball River Valley. This
valley was backfilled with glacial sands, gravels and clays and is topped with glaciolacustrine varved clays or till in the project area. Varved glacio-lacustrine sediment and till
have very low permeability. Depending on the completeness of coverage, this unit is likely
providing a good barrier between the lake and the underlying aquifer. Fractures and some
sand seams or beds that are contained in the till may create some limited connection between
the lake and the aquifer.

D.2.5

Seismic Risk and Earthquake History

A seismic reevaluation was complete for the City of Devils Lake Embankments,
approximately 25 miles west of the project site, resulting in a conclusion that Design
Earthquake and ground motions were below values requiring additional analysis. With the
close proximity of the Devils Lake Embankments, the Tolna Coulee project would be
covered by the reevaluation. In addition, the Tolna Coulee foundation and embankment
materials and properties indicate that the liquefaction potential of these materials is low.

SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION

Subsurface exploration has been completed over the course of a few months, starting
in February 2011 and continuing into June 2011. The North Dakota State Water
Commission (NDSWC) completed the earliest subsurface exploration using their contractor
Terracon. This contract consisted of machine borings, auger borings, cone penetration test
(CPT) soundings, and collection of 3 thin wall samples, and laboratory testing. The St. Paul
District supplemented the NDSWC exploration program with additional machine borings,
undisturbed borings, auger borings, test pits, and laboratory testing.
Under the NDSWC contract, Terracon completed 11 borings and 7 CPT soundings.
Only three of these borings were conducted along the alignment of the I-wall/embankment
composite system. Another boring was completed approximately 1,000 feet downstream of
the structural location. Out of the 7 CPTs, only three were taken near the project area. The
other NDSWC borings and CPTs were completed downstream along the coulee to estimate
erodability of the soils. The NDSWC also conducted a boring approximately1/2 miles north
of the project site in T151N R61E sw1/4 of section 17, state water commission well index
number 30228, that was drilled to a depth of 240 and used to estimate the top of bed rock
and base of the stiff lacustrine clay.
The St. Paul District conducted additional soil exploration starting in March 2011 and
continuing through June 2011. This consisted of two test pits, 22 machine borings, 9 borings
to collect undisturbed samples for testing, and two auger borings from borrow area to collect
disturbed samples for remolded testing. The machine borings were completed along the
proposed structure alignment and also the cofferdam alignment. The borings were relatively
shallow, terminating in the stiff lacustrine clay. The two test pits were on the north bank and
the auger borings were completed in the borrow area to obtain samples for testing.
Boring, CPTs, and Test Pits location and logs are provided in the plan set along with
being in Attachment D-2.

D.3.1

Site Specific Geology

At an approximate elevation of 1250, the top of the uppermost bedrock unit is the
Cretaceous Period rock known as the Pierre Shale Formation. The Pierre Shale is directly
overlain by the glacial outwash sand and gravel deposits of the Spiritwood Aquifer. This
thick sequence of sand and gravel terminates at approximately elevation 1330. Above the
coarse sediments is a thick sequence of glacial-lacustrine silty clay that terminates from 10 to
30 feet below the bottom of the coulee floor. The coulee has eroded into this stiff fat clay
and elastic silt layer.
Above the lacustrine clay-silt layer are mixed fluvial sands and gravels that interbed
with very soft palustrine organics and medium stiff silty clay that was derived from local
slope wash. Some boulders were found at the base of the organics in a test pit. Finally the
Design Documentation Report Tolna Coulee Advance Measures
100% Final Document

D-3
Geotechnical Design and Geology

uppermost layer within the coulee banks is very soft organic rich silty clay that is saturated
and has a medium plasticity.

D.3.2

Laboratory Testing

During the subsurface exploration, undisturbed samples were obtained at different

locations and within different geological units. The NDSWC obtained 3 thinwall samples
under their contract with Terracon while the St. Paul District obtained 5 thinwall samples.
Laboratory tests conducted on the samples include the following: triaxial testing including
isotropically consolidated-undrained compression with pore-pressure measurement (R-bar)
and unconsolidated-undrained (Q tests); and consolidation tests. Other tests were completed
on the disturbed samples (jars) [moisture content, Atterberg Limits, and grain size analyses]
to better identify the soil characteristics and define stratigraphy. The laboratory test results
received to date are included in Attachment D- 3. Additional test data will be added as the
tests are completed.

D.3.3

Selection of Design Parameters

The soil strength parameters used for slope stability and seepage analyses at Tolna
Coulee are summarized in Table D- 1. Due to the emergency nature of the project, the
project schedule dictated that the design be completed before all of the test data was
obtained. Estimated shear strength values were based on other test data from the Devils Lake
Project and were selected to be lower than expected from the actual testing. After all the
testing is complete, the design will be re-evaluated and revised as necessary.

Foundation Materials
Foundation materials for the proposed stoplog structure and I-wall embankment
composite system may be classified in the broad categories of River Alluvium and Glacial
Sediments.
D.3.3.1.1 Shear Strengths
The design shear strength parameters selected for the foundation materials were based
on engineering judgment and limited laboratory testing in the vicinity of Tolna Coulee. With
limited testing data, a conservative approach was used in selection of design shear strength
parameters. However, significant testing was completed for the City of Devils Lake
Embankments raises, approximately 25 miles West of Tolna Coulee, and where applicable
was used to correlate design shear strength parameters. Some CPT data and boring blow
counts were also used in determining shear strength parameters. Table D- 1 at the beginning
of the section lists the foundation material parameters used.

Cofferdam
The construction contractor will be responsible for the design and construction of the
cofferdam to be able to construct the project in the dry. It is anticipated that this will be an
earthen cofferdam constructed by end dumping and pushing material.

GEOTECHNICAL DESIGN
The design and analysis was completed by the St. Paul District geotechnical design

team.

D.4.1

Introduction

The water handling characteristics for Tolna Coulee will be modified by constructing
a control structure that will allow natural erosion to occur in the coulee but will prevent
uncontrolled flows that could result into catastrophic flows downstream. A proposed stoplog
spillway structure will be constructed in the center of the valley to reduce peak flows during
major flood events. An I-Wall/embankment composite system will be constructed on each
end of the structure to tie into high ground.
Appurtenant features include excavation and backfilling for the structure and I-wall
embankment composite system, building the embankment, construction of a cofferdam,
dewatering and groundwater control, and placement of geotextile fabric, bedding, and riprap.

Design Methodology

The design approach consisted of arranging the I-Wall/embankment, cofferdam, and

dewatering materials in a tentative section with regard to strength, permeability, and
economy, and performing analyses to estimate the stability of the proposed design. The
proposed designs were analyzed to meet the following criteria:
(i)
(ii)

D.4.4

The proposed designs must be stable and must not develop objectionable
deformations under all conditions of construction and operation.
Seepage through the embankment, foundation, and abutments must not cause
piping, sloughing, or solution of material.

Cofferdam

At least one temporary cofferdam will be required to construct the permanent stoplog
structure and I-wall embankment composite system in the dry. The temporary cofferdam
will need to be located upstream of the stoplog structure to hold back the lake. In addition, a
second cofferdam may be required downstream of the stoplog structure in order to minimize
the area that is needed to be dewatered and to minimize the amount of runoff into the
worksite.
Based on discussions within Design Branch, the cofferdam and dewatering plan will
be the responsibility of the Contractor and therefore a design for these features are not
included in the plans. The St. Paul District evaluated an earthen cofferdam for the purposes
of estimating the construction cost. In addition, special considerations were included in the
specifications to identify issues that the Contractor should be aware of when bidding and
designing the cofferdam. Alternative contractor proposed designs will be considered as long
as the design meets the approved government design criteria and will be reviewed and
approved by the government.
D.4.4.1

Design Criteria
The design criteria for the cofferdam will adhere to the applicable provisions of EM
1110-2-1902, EM 1110-2-2300 and ER 1110-2-8152. Table D- 3 summarizes the minimum
Factors of Safety that are required to be satisfied by the cofferdam seepage and slope stability
analyses. The selected factors of safety are less than what is recommended for permanent
features as the cofferdam and temporary excavation is only required to facilitate construction
and failure of these temporary features would not have an adverse effect on a large
population downstream, only the construction workers. In addition, the Contractor will be on
site monitoring these features during construction and modification can made, if required.

Hydrology and Hydraulics

Lake water surface elevations used in the cofferdam analyses are based on a
cumulative probable exceedance level developed on a yearly basis by the National Weather
Service. The cofferdam analyses were conducted at the 6% probable exceedance level for
2011. Table D- 4 show the corresponding lake elevations for 50% and 6% exceedance level.
Table D- 4: National Weather Service Devils Lake peak forecast levels for 2011.

Construction for the project is scheduled to start after September 2011 and continue
through the winter months and be completed by March 12, 2012. The cofferdam, which is
required for construction, will be one of the first components constructed and would likely be
at the end of September or October. The lake is likely to freeze up towards the end of
November or early December. Due to the short duration that the earthen cofferdam is in
place before the lake freezes up and the fact that the lake fetch that would cause waves is
from the east, northeast, erosion protection is not considered necessary. If construction is
required beyond March 2012, there could potentially be a need to place some type of erosion
protection on the earthen cofferdam.
D.4.4.3

Government Design Consideration

An earthen cofferdam was considered by the government to be a feasible alternative
and was analyzed. A sheetpile cofferdam could potentially be another alternative that the
contractor would propose. The earthen cofferdam is being proposed based on the close
proximity to suitable fill and location within the work limits. There is also an organic layer
at the surface (approximately 2 to 5 feet thick), that would be unsuitable to support heavy
equipment needed to construct a sheetpile cofferdam. Essentially, an earthen access road /
cofferdam would be needed to drive the sheetpile.
The earthen concept cofferdam design consists of the following:

Earthen Material (predominantly glacial till)

6H:1V Side Slopes
20ft Top Width (provides access to the South Side)
1459.2 Top Elevation
Constructed 15ft from the City of Devils Lake Property
Adequate Space Between the Cofferdam and Structural Excavation
Over excavation of the organic layer on the downstream portion of the cofferdam

The lakeward portion of the cofferdam should be constructed first, directly on top of
the organics, placing the fill through the water. Once a reasonable section is obtained, the
site should be dewatered and the organics excavated beneath the downstream portion of the

Geotechnical Design and Geology

cofferdam. Once over excavation is completed, the remaining portion of the cofferdam
should be constructed in the dry.
D.4.4.3.1 Seepage and Slope Stability Analysis
The results of the seepage and slope stability analysis are summarized below in Table
D- 5. Figures associated with these analyses can be found in Attachment D- 4.
Table D- 5: Cofferdam Seepage and Stability Results

D.4.4.3.2 Settlement
With the cofferdam being constructed partially on the organic deposit, settlement may
occur. However, most of this settlement would occur during construction of the cofferdam.
The portion of the cofferdam in which the organics are removed will likely have less
settlement. Therefore overbuild will not be needed. Also, the contractor will be onsite and
would be able to increase the height of the cofferdam, if needed. In addition, any overbuild
above 1459.2 would be higher than the channel high point resulting in the public perception
of holding back water above 1459.2.
D.4.4.3.3 Special Considerations
There are special considerations included in the specifications that provide the
contractor additional insight to what should be considered when designing the cofferdam.
The following are the special considerations.
1) Property Limits: The contractor shall be aware of the construction limits and make
sure that the construct and removal of the cofferdam does not affect property outside
of the construction limits.
2) Organics: The contractor shall be aware that there could be varying thickness of
organic materials lakeward of the location of the permanent structure. These organic
materials will likely be soft, compressible, and relatively pervious. The contractor
shall consider the behavior of the organics in the cofferdam design.
3) Sandy Materials: The contractor shall be aware that there could be sandy materials at
various elevations and thicknesses lakeward location of the permanent structure. The
contractor shall consider the behavior of the sandy material in the cofferdam design,
excavation, and dewatering.
4) Top Elevation: The contractor shall determine what top elevation is required of the
cofferdam to be adequate to prevent overtopping of the structure due to waves. In
addition, the contractor shall consider what means may be used to raise the cofferdam
if required due to a projected increase in lake elevation.

Geotechnical Design and Geology

5) Waves and erosion: The contractor shall be aware that there is up to a 5-mile fetch
along a line East by Northeast from the site location. The contractor shall consider
what requirements are needed to account for waves and possible erosion.

D.4.5

Dewatering and Groundwater Control

It will be the responsibility of the contractor to design, install, and operate dewatering
and groundwater control systems. The government evaluated the site to determine what
types of dewatering features may be used by the contractor. This information was used to
come up with a government cost estimate.
D.4.5.1

Area Hydrology
The surface and ground-water hydrology in vicinity of the proposed Tolna Coulee
structure is governed by local topography. The coulee is approximately incised as much as
100 ft below the surface of adjoining uplands and receives surface drainage water from those
uplands. In addition, water tables formed from local recharge on adjoining lands are
naturally elevated in relation to Coulee ground water, thus providing a natural gradient for
groundwater discharge toward the coulee.
D.4.5.2

Design Consideration
A dewatering system will be required to properly control groundwater from the lake
and surrounding high water tables. The proposed dewatering system increases the stability of
excavated slopes for the stoplog structure and I-wall composite system. The dewatering
system vary depending on what feature it is dewatering and what materials are being
dewatered and will likely use various features due to the varying materials at the site. For the
stoplog structure, the structural excavation will be down into the stiff clay. There will be
very little seepage coming out of the stiff clay, but any seepage and runoff will need to be
directed away from the subgrade. For this, a French drain system with sumps along the outer
edge of the excavation is recommended. This will allow surface runoff to be intercepted into
the French drain system and pumped away. In addition, the stoplog structure requires a
subdrainage system consisting of sand overtopped with a previous granular material. The
subdrainage system will provide a working platform to the Contractor and also allow
dewatering to occur beneath the stoplog structure.
For the I-Wall/Embankment system will require some excavation to remove
unsuitable materials. The excavation will need to be dry prior to placing embankment
materials and some dewatering will be needed. Sumping of the runoff and seepage will
likely be the best way to control the water. A French drain system maybe incorporated and
placed along the edges of the coulee in order to intercept groundwater prior to reaching the
excavation area. Sheetpile may also be used to cutoff groundwater flow into the excavation.
The Contractor may elect to install dewatering wells or well points in the pervious
materials to help minimize the amount of flow into the excavation. In addition, whatever
dewatering method is implemented the Contractor will need to contend with freezing
weather. This may require that shelters be constructed around the sumps and wells and
heated to prevent freezing.

Temporary Excavation Slopes

A deep excavation will be required to construct the stoplog structure. The bottom of
the footing slab is at elevation 1441.6, based NDSWC preferred elevation, and a 3-foot thick
subdrainage system is below the slab to an elevation of 1438.6, which will require an
excavation of approximately 15 feet. In addition, excavation is required to remove the
unsuitable material along the I-Wall/Embankment composite system which ranges in depth
from 4 to 8 feet.
With the excavation close to the proximity of the cofferdam, a stable slope will be
required to protect the integrity of the cofferdam. In addition, the excavation will be nearby
Devils Lake and the presence of water could have a significant effect on slope stability. To
overcome this condition, the ground water will need to be controlled by the dewatering plan.
Slip surfaces with a minimum depth of 25% of the slope height was considered to be
maintenance and not detrimental to construction.
The minimum factors of safety for the temporary excavation slopes are presented
below in Table D- 6.
Table D- 6: Temporary Excavation Required Factor of Safety

The temporary excavation slopes are considered to be the responsibility of the

contractor and are required to be designed by the contractor. However, a design was
completed to evaluate what slope would be feasible for construction. The stability of the
excavated slope will also depend on the type of dewater system(s) used by the contractor. It
was determined that an excavated lakeside (East) slope of 1V:4H would provide a
reasonable stable slope for the excavation required for the stoplog structure. A 1V:4H slope
will provide ample room between the cofferdam and excavation. For the downstream (West)
slope, a 1V:4H slope yields a drained factor of safety around 1 for a small failure surface
relative to the size of the slope. If the downstream slope is flattened to 1V:5H, the factor of
safety increases to around 1.5. Therefore a downstream excavation slope between 1V:4 and
1V:5H is reasonable. The North-South excavation slopes had similar results to the
downstream (West) slope. The analyses indicated that a slope around 1V:5H would provide
sufficient protection against major failure that would interrupt construction. The results of
the stability analysis are summarized below in Table D- 7. Figures associated with this
analysis can be found in Attachment D- 4.

Stoplog Structure and Retaining Walls

The main purpose of the structure is to protect downstream communities from

uncontrolled releases out of Tolna Coulee should significant erosion occur. The proposed
structure will consist of a stoplog weir with a top elevation of 1459.2 and a bottom sill
elevation of 1447.2, both elevation requested by the NDSWC.
D.4.7.1

Site Selection
The NDSWC requested that the structure be located upstream of the high point to
allow natural erosion to occur downstream. Also, the structure is to be located on the City of
Devils Lake property for the ease of obtaining permanent easements. Topographical and
hydrological considerations included locating the alignment between two alluvial fans and
placement of the structure in the middle of the coulee in order to replicate as much as
possible the natural condition of water flowing through the coulee. Placement between two
alluvial fans, allows the tie-backs to be near high ground.
D.4.7.2

Foundation Protection
The bottom of the excavation will most likely be founded on the stiff clay formation
and very little seepage is expected but the structural foundation should be protected to
prevent deterioration of the foundation between the time of excavation and concrete
placement. The foundation will be protected by the installation of the subdrainage system
after excavation is completed. The subdrainage system will also provide an adequate
working platform an in addition to help in dewatering the structural excavation.
Subsequently, 12 inches of sand fill will be placed on the subgrade and then 2 feet of
NDDOT Class 7, Permeable Base Aggregate.
D.4.7.3

Sheetpile
A sheetpile cutoff is being proposed underneath the structure. The sheetpile will
prevent undermining of the structure in the event that the erosion protection is displaced
adjacent to the structure and scour occurs. In addition, the sheetpile will contain the
subdrainage material beneath the structure.
D.4.7.4

Uplift / Seepage Analysis

Design Documentation Report Tolna Coulee Advance Measures

100% Final Document

D-12
Geotechnical Design and Geology

A seepage analysis was conducted on the structure to determine the uplift pressures
on the structures base slab. The results were coordinated with a structural engineer who
determined for certain design load cases, the uplift pressures were high enough to reduce the
factor of safety below the required for overturning of the structure. Therefore, a subdrainage
system was evaluated to reduce the uplift pressures. The subdrainage system will consist of
pervious material beneath the stoplog structure and outlet pipes through the downstream key.
Four different load cases were analyzed which are summarized below in Table D- 8.
Table D- 8: Stoplog Structure Uplift/Seepage Load Cases

It was assumed that the subdrainage system would only be 50% effective. The 50%
effective uplift pressures were determined by taking the average of the 100% effective and
the 0% effective scenarios. In the 100% effective scenario, it was assumed the subdrainage
system and outlet pipes were functioning as permeable materials and flow of water through
the system was unrestricted. The result was that the uplift pressures were equal to the
tailwater elevation. In the 0% effective scenario, it was assumed that the outlet pipes would
become clogged and the permeability be dramatically reduced. This resulted in higher
pressures beneath the slab.
The results of the uplift/seepage analysis can be found in Attachment D- 5.
Floatation calculations were completed by a structural engineer and discussion
concerning this can be found in Section 1.8.1 of Appendix E.
D.4.7.5

Retaining Wall Stability Analysis

A stability analysis was completed on the downstream embankment of the retaining
wall. Retaining Wall Monolith 1 was the deemed to be the most critical section based on the
higher configuration and stratigraphy, therefore was the only section analyzed. The
embankment was analyzed with the same criteria and procedure outlined in the IWall/Embankment Composite System, Section D.4.8, with the exception of the rotational
stability. The northern embankment monoliths have a deep sand outwash layer which has the
potential for seepage. As a precaution, pervious fill is being placed between the bottom of
excavation and riprap. No seepage concerns were found during the analysis but as
redundancy pervious fill will be placed. A summary of the loading conditions and required
minimum factors of safety for the stability failure mode is presented in Table D- 9. The
seepage and stability analysis is presented in Attachment D- 6.

analyses for the bearing capacity can be found in Section 1.8.1 of Appendix E.

D.4.8

I-Wall/Embankment Composite System

To tie the stoplog structure into high ground an I-wall/Embankment Composite

system (will be referred to I-Wall system) was determined to be the most feasible feature to
construct during the winter and accommodate the site conditions. The I-Wall system will
require that any organic soil or soft foundation materials be removed and replaced with
earthen material (predominately glacial till). Once the embankment is constructed, the
sheetpile will be driven through the embankment.
The design procedure for the I-Wall system followed the USACE Engineer Circular
EC 1110-2-6066. The I-Wall system was analyzed for 3 failure modes: rotational stability,
global stability, seepage. Seven different loading conditions were analyzed for global
stability while four were analyzed for seepage. The design procedure and results are
described in detail below.
D.4.8.1

Configuration
The configuration of the I-wall system is such that it meets the minimum
requirements for all loading conditions and failure modes. A summary of the configuration
is below in Table D- 10. The sheetpile tip elevation varies along the I-wall system. The tip
elevation is based on the requirement to be embedded a minimum of 5 feet into the stiff clay
layer or the minimum structural embedment depth required for rotational stability, whichever
produces the minimum elevation (i.e. greatest depth).

Site Characterization
The project site for this project encompasses a very small area in Tolna Coulee. The
distance across the coulee is less than 1,000 feet. The soil exploration program for the
project has a significant number of borings in which stratigraphy at the site can be defined to
a high level of confidence. Numerous soil samples obtained from the soil borings are being
tested in order to help define the stratigraphy. Substantial undisturbed samples have been
obtained to determine drained and undrained shear strength parameters. The designer is
confident that the site at Tolna Coulee will be well-defined and the required minimum factors
of safety will coincide with that.
D.4.8.3

Hydrology and Hydraulics

Design lake and tailwater surface elevations were provided by Hydrology and
Hydraulics. During construction of the project, the site will be dewatered and there will not
be a pool or tailwater. Once construction is completed and the cofferdam is removed, water
will pool on either side of the structure until the pool reaches elevation 1459.2 feet and
begins flowing over the high point downstream of the structure. The recommended design
lake elevation was 1463.2 feet, which corresponds to when the 1/2 Probable Maximum Flood
(1/2 PMF) occurs with the pool at 1459.2, the high point of Tolna Coulee. The tailwater
elevation will vary through the course of the PMF event. Initially, the tailwater will be
approximately the same elevation of the lake. As erosion of Tolna Coulee occurs at the high
point, the tailwater will decrease. Two critical tailwater scenarios were evaluated. The first
is scenario as a tailwater elevation of 1451.8 feet, which is based on erosion of Tolna Coulee
but no loss or erosion protection downstream of the structure. The second scenario was for a
tailwater elevation of 1448.4 feet, which assumed that significant erosion causes a deep
channel downstream resulting in failure of the downstream riprap protection and water
plunges over the end sill.
D.4.8.4

Failure Modes
There are three general failure modes that are associated with I-wall systems:
rotational stability, global stability, and seepage.
Design Documentation Report Tolna Coulee Advance Measures
100% Final Document

D-15
Geotechnical Design and Geology

The rotational stability failure mode is associated with the rotation of the sheetpile
about a point below the ground surface and/or translation laterally into the embankment.
This type of failure typically occurs when there is inadequate pile depth or insufficient
passive resistance of the ground or embankment to resist lateral movement. This failure
mode is generally analyzed using CWALSHT and details of this are described in the
structural appendix.
The global stability failure mode is associated with the stability of the embankment
and sheetpile as a system. This failure mode resembles the traditional slope stability failure
mode associated with levee and dam slopes and is analyzed in the some fashion, using a
slope stability program.
The final failure mode is associated with seepage, more specifically piping and heave.
If exit gradients at the toe of an I-wall/embankment system are large enough, piping may
initiate. In addition, if there is an impervious blanket overlaying a pervious substratum,
uplift may be a concern. This failure mode is generally analyzed using a finite element
seepage program.
D.4.8.5

Loading Conditions
Loading conditions were established for the various failure modes. The loading
conditions associated with rotational stability are presented in the structural appendix. The
loading conditions for global stability and seepage are described below.
D.4.8.5.1 Seepage Loading Conditions
Four loading conditions were evaluated for the seepage failure mode. These loading
conditions coincide with the largest differential head scenarios which will produce the
highest pore pressures and largest gradients. The other loading conditions evaluated under
the global stability scenario which would produce lower pore pressures and lower gradients.
The seepage failure mode was evaluated based on exit gradients at the downstream
toe of the embankment and also at the bottom of the riprap/bedding. The exit gradient was
compared to the critical gradient and to obtain a factor of safety for piping. In addition, if an
impervious stratum was overlying a pervious substratum, the gradient across the impervious
stratum was compared to the critical gradient. A summary of the loading conditions and
minimum factors of safety for the seepage failure mode is presented in Table D- 11.

D.4.8.5.2 Global Stability Loading Conditions

The I-Wall was analyzed using both drained (effective stress) and undrained (total
stress) shear strength parameters. When completing the drained analysis, the pore pressures
obtained from a steady state seepage analysis were used. For the undrained analysis, internal
pore pressures are neglected for any material that has relatively low permeability. Any water
load that is on a slope is accounted for in the undrained analysis though.
The formation of a flood side gap between the embankment and sheetpile can be
critical to the performance of an I-Wall system and must be accounted for when analyzing
the stability of the I-Wall system. When cohesive soils are present, it is assumed that a flood
side gap can form. Cohesionless materials do not have the ability to support itself and allow
a gap to form. The embankment material will be composed predominately of glacial till, a
clay-like material. In the case of undrained analyses, the embankment material is cohesive
and a gap would likely form under undrained loading conditions. For drained conditions, the
embankment material will become saturated and will behave like a cohesionless material
therefore a gap is unlikely to form.
The depth that the gap would form was investigated based on the procedure
developed by the Interagency Performance Evaluation Taskforce (IPET). Following this
procedure, the first step was to determine the active earth pressure of the system and the
hydrostatic water pressure (assuming a gap has formed). The second step was to compare the
active earth pressure against the hydrostatic water pressure. It was assumed that wherever
the hydrostatic pressure is greater than the active earth pressure, a gap would form. It was
determined that a partial gap could form at Section No. 2, down to elevation 1455. At
Section No. 3, gap could form between elevations 1459 to 1447 and again from 1437 down
to 1431. In the zone between 1447 and 1437, the active earth pressure is larger than the
hydrostatic pressure. It was assumed for Section No. 3 that a full gap would form down to
the tip of the sheetpile. The gap formation calculations are summarized in Attachment D- 7.
When analyzing the I-Wall system using undrained shear strength parameters, two
conditions were analyzed: (1) a gap does not form, (2) a gap forms. For the drained analyses
only one condition was analyzed in which a gap did not form. In addition to the type of shear
strength parameters used and the formation of a gap or not, different pool and tailwater
combinations were investigated.
The various combination of parameters, gap formation or not, and pool/tailwater
combination, seven different loading conditions were required to be analyzed for the global
stability failure mode. These loading conditions cover the range of loading that can be
expected and are summarized below in Table D- 12. The minimum factors of safety were
based on well-defined site and parameter characterization.

Seepage and Stability Analysis

The seepage and stability analyses were completed using the program GeoStudio
2007 which included Seep/W and Slope/W, from GeoSlope International. The configuration
of the I-Wall and stratigraphy is able to be inputted once and used for both the seepage and
stability analyses. In addition, the stability analysis can use the pore pressures determined by
the seepage analysis which is important when analyzing the drained conditions.

Results
The I-Wall system was analyzed for seepage and global stability. For the seepage
analyses, the exit gradient was checked at both the downstream toe of the riprap and also at
the downstream toe of the embankment fill. The seepage factor of safety was based on the
head loss taken across a discrete thickness of soil and comparing it to the force of the discrete
thickness of soil to resist uplift. For Sections 2, 4, and 5, the weight of the riprap and
bedding was neglected in the factor or safety calculations as the factors of safety were well
above the minimum required. For Section 3, the weight of the riprap, bedding, and sand was
included in the calculations. The results are presented in Attachment D- 8.
The results indicate that the minimum required factors of safety against piping (exit
gradients) were meet or exceeded for all loading cases. A summary of the factors of safety
against piping are below in Table D- 13.

For slope stability, the drained analyses controlled the design of the embankments.
The factors of safety for Analyses 3, 5, and 7 were very close while still exceeding the
required minimum factors of safety. The factors of safety for the undrained analyses
typically exceeded the minimum factors of safety by at least 0.2. A summary of the factors
of safety obtained for the loading conditions are present below in Table D- 14.
The partial gap slope stability analysis was completed for Sections No. 2 following
the procedure developed by IPET. For this analysis, hydrostatic water pressure system was
placed on the I-Wall system down to the tip of the sheetpile and resultant active earth
pressures were also added as point loads. The failure surface entry point was set at the tip of

Settlement Analysis
The removal of the organic soils and any soft foundation soils prior to construction of
the embankment will reduce the amount of settlement or may eliminate it. Due to this,
overbuild is not being recommended at this time. Settlement analysis will be completed to
verify this assumption.
D.4.8.9

Passive Pressure Analysis for Rotational Stability

Research conducted on I-Walls have indicated that when I-Walls are incorporated
into a levee/embankment system, the passive pressure for a passive wedge computed by earth
pressure theory in the CWALSHT program may not be the most critical failure mode. In
some instances, there could be a different failure mode that is more critical and offers a lower
passive resistance to the rotation/translation of the sheetpile. When analyzing the I-Wall
system for rotational stability, the least available resistance from the system must be used.
The procedure outlined in the draft ETL 1110-2-575 was followed in order to
determine the passive resistance of the I-Wall system. This procedure requires that minimum
factor of safety for slope stability is calculated for various critical slip surface elevations with
various surcharge loads. From these analyses, passive resistance versus factor of safety plots
can be developed for the various critical slip surface elevations. From this, a passive
resistance plot versus depth can be develop for various factors of safety. The passive
resistance plots then are compared to the passive resistance obtained using CWALSHT. If

Geotechnical Design and Geology

the passive resistance based on slope stability is less than what is obtained by CWALSHT, an
adjustment to the passive pressure must be done in CWALSHT to account for the lower
available passive resistance.
The passive pressure analysis is presented in Attachment D- 9.

PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT

The Saint Paul District has performed a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment
(ESA) in conformance with the scope and limitations of American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) Practice E 1527-05. The environmental site assessment has revealed no
evidence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject properties.
The ESA can be found in Appendix J.

SLOPE PROTECTION

The riprap and bedding stone gradations for this project are the same that were used
and designed for the Devils Lake City Embankment raises. These gradations were previously
designed to meet USACE design criteria provided in the USACE Shoreline protection
manual, section VI and have performed well on existing embankments. The Saint Paul
Districts Hydrology and Hydraulic engineers, provided the minimum W50 requirements.
This was used in determining what gradations to use. The riprap and bedding gradations are
presented below in Table D- 15 and Table D- 16, respectively.

Concrete Aggregate, Riprap, and Bedding

Fine and coarse concrete aggregate of acceptable quality and durability will need to
be imported to the area from sources east of the Red River of the North. High quality
commercial aggregates in the area encompassed by eastern North Dakota and western
Minnesota (including the Devils Lake vicinity) are obtained from the beach ridges of Glacial
Lake Agassiz or outwash deposits east of the Red River and are shipped by rail.
The material must, however, be carefully processed to remove iron-oxide concretions
and shale.
Riprap and bedding are available locally. However, the local riprap and bedding
mostly contains rounded field stone from glacial boulders and from oversized material
screened from gravel production. At this time, three gradations for rounded riprap will be
provided. Bedding material can be produced from local gravel pits. Sources of quarried,
angular, stone are available in Ortonville, Minnesota, approximately 200 miles east of the
proposed project.

INSTRUMENTATION

As part of the analyses and design that relates to dam safety, recommendations have
been developed to monitor project performance. Monitoring is necessary to evaluate the
design, construction, operation, and performance of the project stoplog structure and I-wall
embankment composite system. Recommendations include the implementation of an
instrumentation program for monitoring performance during operation. This is accomplished
through qualitative and quantitative observations and evaluations, including direct
measurement of deformation, seepage, and stress where possible. Specifically, the
instrumentation program purpose and objectives include:

Construction Monitoring

During construction instrumentation monitoring was deemed unnecessary for this

project. Instrumentation monitoring of temporary structure such as earthen cofferdam,
excavation slopes, and dewatering appeared to be redundant. These features should be
monitored with an integrated proper construction quality control (QA/QC) program involving
inspection and materials testing.

D.8.2

Long-Term Performance Monitoring

Long-term performance monitoring will be the responsibility of the local sponsor

which is the NDSWC. The recommended long-term monitoring includes piezometric
measurements within the embankment of the I-Wall system, alignment monitoring of the IWall system and stoplog structure, and uplift pressures beneath the stoplog structure.
As part of the construction, the contractor will be required to install two monitoring
well casings at Stations B2+90 and B6+50. This is due to the fact that there will be riprap
and bedding material at these locations which will make it very difficult to install monitoring
wells after construction is complete. Once construction is completed, monitoring wells can
be drilled and instrumentation installed. It is recommended that vibratory wire piezometers
be installed in the wells which are connected to a data logger. The data loggers should be set
up to take and store daily readings and the data downloaded every month during a large
event.
Monitoring of the alignment of the I-Wall system and stoplog structure can be
accomplished by placing monitoring points at various locations along the project. A baseline
of the alignment should be established shortly after construction is completed. Measurement
of the monitoring points should be completed every year. During a large event, it is
recommended that the I-Wall system and stoplog structure be monitored at a higher
frequency.
The uplift pressures beneath the stoplog structure also require monitoring once a large
event occurs and differential head across the structure occurs. Four locations will be
monitored. Two locations will coincide with the piers and will consist of riser pipes coming
up from the drainage material beneath the concrete. The other two locations will be located
45 feet downstream of the stoplogs. Again, riser piper will be located in the pier but a
connector pipe will be installed beneath the concrete slab and run to the monitoring point.
All piping will consist of 1 inch diameter stainless steel. At a later date, vibratory wire
piezometers can be installed in the riser pipes and connected to data loggers to collect
readings. The reading schedule for the uplift pressures should be on the same schedule as the
embankment piezometers.

REVIEWS

A number of reviews were completed during the design of the Tolna Coulee project.
The reviews included internal district peer reviews, agency technical reviews, and also an
independent external peer review. Comments and questions will come up during these
reviews that will prompt changes to the analyses and report. The comments made during the
reviews were placed into Dr. Checks by the reviewers. The designers evaluated the
comments and provided a response. The reviewers than back checked the evaluation and the
documents to verify that changes were incorporated. The review comments can be accessed
through Dr. Checks.

1.7.2 RetainingandWingWalls
There are 2 retaining wall monoliths on each upstream corner of the control structure and one
wingwallmonolithoneachofthedownstreamcorners.Thenearretainingwallis24feetlongand
26feet high. The further retaining wall is 30feet long and 19feet high. The downstream wing
wallis22feetlongandhasvariedheight.Noconcretekeyswereutilizedtoaidinslidingresistance
for the Twall. Design procedure for Twall is according to EM111022502 for load and load
combination determinations and stability analyses, and EM 111022104 for reinforced concrete
design.
For Twall load Cases R1 and R2 was the only load cases investigated and only longterm soil
conditions (drained condition) were analyzed. Water elevations in the soil behind the wall were
taken2feetabovethetailwaterelevation.TheWaterelevationsinthechannelareasshownin

frostprotection.Verticalloadsconsistofconcreteweight,water,buoyantsoil,andupliftpressures

Rotational Stability
This analysis is used to determine the required penetration for sheet piling. Both drained, S case and undrained Q cases were
analyzed using the Corp program CWALSHT. The drained (S) cases utilized the CORPCASE program CWALSHT (Version
Date: 2007/11/9) as described in the documentation for the program. The undrained (Q) cases utilized CWALSHT as well but
followed the interim procedures as described in Phase II analysis guidance in EC 6066, Appendix C. Select computer program
inputs/outputs are included in the following pages. Seismic and construction load cases did not control rotational stability and are
ti l d dh
Assumptions:
1 Neglect riprap in analysis
2 Wall Friction = 0
3 No Seepage for Q case(i.e. gap analysis)
4 Wave taken as additional hydrostatic(i.e. no hydrodynamic for inland waves)
5 Ice load = 5000 lbs/ft applied 1 foot below water level
6 Preliminary and final stratigaphy are shown on following sheets

Allowable Shear Stress fv = 0.33(fy)
fy =
Overstress factor
fv =

24.75 ksi

Fv = V/Av
Av = (tw*h)/w =
tw =

w = 2.32333333 ft
Av = (tw*h)/w = 2.02725968 sqin/ft of wall
Fv = 4.08778415 ksi
Fv << fv, Therefore OK

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) was conducted for property located in
proposed construction and borrow site located adjacent to Stump Lake at the mouth of
Tolna Coulee, northwest of the town of Tolna, North Dakota. Property reconnaissance
was conducted at the site on 4 April, 2011. The inspection and review of available
records revealed the following:
Site History
The subject property is located adjacent to Stump Lake at the head of Tolna Coulee,
northwest of the town of Tolna, North Dakota.
The subject property and its environs up to a radius of 1 mile underwent a search of
federal, state, local and tribal environmental databases in an effort to identify any
potential environmental conditions of concern. No recognized environmental conditions
were identified through the database search.
Historical land use and any potential environmental conditions may be identified through
the study of fire insurance maps, aerial photographs, and U.S.G.S. topographic maps. A
map and photo search was undertaken and no recognized environmental conditions were
identified through this search.
The subject properties were visually inspected. No recognized environmental conditions
were identified during the inspections and nothing was observed to constitute a
significant environmental risk at the site.
The Executive Summary provides a brief overview of the findings of this environmental
site assessment. It should be noted that the complete report must be read in order to fully
understand the findings associated with the subject properties.

PURPOSE

The purpose of this assessment was to identify recognized environmental conditions and
potential environmental conditions based on a visual inspection of the subject property
and the surrounding operations, and a review of available public records relative the
subject property. A recognized environmental condition is defined by ASTM Standard
Practice E-1527 and E-2247 as the presence or likely presence of any hazardous
substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing
release, a past release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or
petroleum products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or
surface water of the property. This assessment does not intend to include de minimis
conditions that generally do not present a material risk of harm to public health or the
environment and that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if
brought to the attention of appropriate governmental agencies.
The Phase I ESA is in conformance with the scope of ASTM Standard Practice E-1527.
The scope of work is further defined below.
A. COE has gathered and reviewed available historical data, including fire insurance
mapping, plats of survey maps, soil survey aerial photography, topographic maps
from the United States Geological Survey (USGS), and interviews with
knowledgeable persons.
B. COE has reviewed state and federal environmental databases including UST, LUST,
RCRA, CERCLA, NPL, Landfill, ERNS, CORRACTS, PADS, TRIS, DOCKET,
TSCA, and SWF.
C. COE has physically inspected the subject property via walking and windshield
survey, looking for signs of recognized environmental conditions such as stressed
vegetation, unusual staining, dumping, and evidence of ASTs and USTs.
D. COE has physically observed adjacent properties, paying particular attention to
evidence of USTs, questionable housekeeping practices or unusual business practices.
E. COE has reviewed all available historical data, database information, received FOIA
information, and the results of the site inspections.
The conclusions and recommendations stated in this report are based upon observations
made by individuals working for the Corps of Engineers, and also upon information
provided by others. We have accepted as true and accurate the information provided by
other sources; therefore we cannot be held responsible for the accuracy of this
information.
The Phase I Assessment was conducted in a manner consistent with that level of care and
skill ordinarily exercised by members of the environmental profession under similar

conditions. No other warranty or guarantee, express or implied, is included or intended

in this report or otherwise.
The Scope of this Assessment does not purport to encompass every report, record, or
other form of documentation relevant to the Property being evaluated. The observations
contained herein are made during the site reconnaissance, review of ownership records,
discussions with local officials, and review of readily accessible environmental databases.
This Phase I Assessment is based on our professional judgment concerning the
significance of the data collected and in no way attempts to forecast the future site
conditions.
SITE DESCRIPTION

Property Location
The subject property is located in Nelson County adjacent to Stump Lake at the head of
Tolna Coulee, northwest of the town of Tolna, North Dakota. The proposed work and
borrow site is located in the 7.5-minute quadrangle map 47089-H5 Devils Lake
Mountain, North Dakota, Township 151 North, Range 61 West, Section 19. The site
location map is provided as Figure 1.
General Site Setting
The City of Devils Lake owns the land in the area of the proposed project. Land cover in
the area of the subject property includes marshes, coulee wall, prairie upland and
intermittent stream in the valley bottom. The proposed borrow area is used as pasture
land. The closest town in proximity is Tolna, North Dakota with a population of
approximately 179 (2009 census estimate), out of a total population of 40,000 in all of
Nelson County.

Current Use of Adjoining Properties

The adjoining properties are limited in number and are agricultural in nature. The area is
rural and has a relatively low surrounding population. No manufacturing or commercial
business is located in the immediate vicinity.
Owner Provided Information
The City of Devils Lake owns all of the land in the area of the project. I conducted a
personal interview with the previous owner. Mr. Olson said he has farmed the property
for the past 60+ years and has no recollection of any spills or any other environmental
concerns.

HISTORICAL USE OF THE PROPERTY

Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps

Historical Fire Insurance Sanborn Maps were requested from Environmental Data
Resources, Inc. (EDR), Southport, Connecticut. Historical maps are detailed drawings
that show the locations and use of structures on a given property during a specific year.
The maps were originally used by insurance companies to assess fire risk. EDR had no
coverage for the Sanborn maps. This is consistent with the areas rural character.
Copies of the Sanborn reports are provided in Appendix F2.
Topographic Maps
Historical topographic map coverage of Tolna Coulee was studied. USGS 7.5 Devils
Lake Mountain and Pekin NW North Dakota quadrangle maps were obtained for the year
1951. Topographic maps depict the subject property and adjacent properties as similar to
what was observed at the time of the property reconnaissance.

Partial copies of the topographic maps are provided in Appendix F3.

No environmental conditions were identified from the topographic maps.

Aerial Photos
Historical photos of the property were requested from EDR. Photo coverage was
available for the years 1949, 1958, 1982, 1990, 1992, and 2005. All photos reveal that
that the land was similar to its present condition. All photos show that land is agricultural
in use, and rural in character.
Copies of the aerial photos are provided in Appendix F4.
No environmental conditions were identified from the aerial photographs.

REGULATORY REVIEW

A Government Records Search Radius Map Report was requested for the subject
property from Environmental Data Resources, Inc. (EDR). The EDR Radius Map Report
maps sites with potential or existing environmental liabilities. The following is a list of
the databases searched for the subject property accompanied by a summary of sites
listings. Copies of the EDR Radius Map Reports are provided in Appendix F5.

PROPERTY RECONNAISSANCE

27 March, 2011
Kevin S. Nelson from the US Army Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District conducted the
property reconnaissance. On several occasions site visits were made, once in a snow
condition, and once in a pre green-up condition in late April. Photos of the site are
located in appendix F1.
The subject property is located along the northwest edge of Stump Lake at the mouth
Tolna Coulee. Tolna Coulee is orientated east west and is on the west shore of Stump
Lake.
There is a wetland in the bottom of the coulee. The side slopes of the coulee are steep
except where intermittent streams have eroded small valleys into them. Alluvial fans
occur at points where these small valleys adjoin the main coulee. The upland area is
relatively flat to gently rolling crop land or pasture.
The nearest structures were observed at the Olson Farm during the inspection. The farm
is located mile to the northwest.
The database search revealed 3 wells on or very near the subject property. The entire site
was free from litter or man-made debris.
No potential on-site recognized environmental conditions were observed during the
property reconnaissance.

CONCLUSIONS

The Corps of Engineers have performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment in

conformance with the scope and limitations of ASTM Practice E 1527 of the Tolna
Coulee project area.
This assessment revealed no evidence of recognized environmental conditions in
connection with the subject property.
Agricultural activities have historically been conducted at adjacent sites. Agricultural
chemicals, including herbicides and pesticides, are expected to have been applied to the
crops and ground surface at various times throughout its history. The disseminated
nature of these chemicals, when used properly, should not constitute a significant
environmental risk at the site.

QUALIFICATIONS of the PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS

REPORT

The professional responsible for the preparation of this Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment is identified below.

CERCLIS-NFRAP: CERCLIS No Further Remedial Action Planned

Archived sites are sites that have been removed and archived from the inventory of CERCLIS sites. Archived status
indicates that, to the best of EPAs knowledge, assessment at a site has been completed and that EPA has determined
no further steps will be taken to list this site on the National Priorities List (NPL), unless information indicates
this decision was not appropriate or other considerations require a recommendation for listing at a later time.
This decision does not necessarily mean that there is no hazard associated with a given site; it only means that,
based upon available information, the location is not judged to be a potential NPL site.

Included in the listing are brownfields properties addresses by Cooperative Agreement Recipients and brownfields
properties addressed by Targeted Brownfields Assessments. Targeted Brownfields Assessments-EPAs Targeted Brownfields
Assessments (TBA) program is designed to help states, tribes, and municipalities--especially those without EPA
Brownfields Assessment Demonstration Pilots--minimize the uncertainties of contamination often associated with
brownfields. Under the TBA program, EPA provides funding and/or technical assistance for environmental assessments
at brownfields sites throughout the country. Targeted Brownfields Assessments supplement and work with other efforts
under EPAs Brownfields Initiative to promote cleanup and redevelopment of brownfields. Cooperative Agreement
Recipients-States, political subdivisions, territories, and Indian tribes become Brownfields Cleanup Revolving
Loan Fund (BCRLF) cooperative agreement recipients when they enter into BCRLF cooperative agreements with the
U.S. EPA. EPA selects BCRLF cooperative agreement recipients based on a proposal and application process. BCRLF
cooperative agreement recipients must use EPA funds provided through BCRLF cooperative agreement for specified
brownfields-related cleanup activities.

Manufactured Gas Plants: EDR Proprietary Manufactured Gas Plants

The EDR Proprietary Manufactured Gas Plant Database includes records of coal gas plants (manufactured gas plants)
compiled by EDRs researchers. Manufactured gas sites were used in the United States from the 1800s to 1950s
to produce a gas that could be distributed and used as fuel. These plants used whale oil, rosin, coal, or a mixture
of coal, oil, and water that also produced a significant amount of waste. Many of the byproducts of the gas production,
such as coal tar (oily waste containing volatile and non-volatile chemicals), sludges, oils and other compounds
are potentially hazardous to human health and the environment. The byproduct from this process was frequently
disposed of directly at the plant site and can remain or spread slowly, serving as a continuous source of soil
and groundwater contamination.

EDRs GeoCheck Physical Setting Source Addendum is provided to assist the environmental professional in
forming an opinion about the impact of potential contaminant migration.

Assessment of the impact of contaminant migration generally has two principle investigative components:
1. Groundwater flow direction, and
2. Groundwater flow velocity.

Groundwater flow direction may be impacted by surface topography, hydrology, hydrogeology, characteristics
of the soil, and nearby wells. Groundwater flow velocity is generally impacted by the nature of the
geologic strata.

TC3042849.2s Page A-1

GEOCHECK - PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCE SUMMARY

GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTION INFORMATION

Groundwater flow direction for a particular site is best determined by a qualified environmental professional
using site-specific well data. If such data is not reasonably ascertainable, it may be necessary to rely on other
sources of information, such as surface topographic information, hydrologic information, hydrogeologic data
collected on nearby properties, and regional groundwater flow information (from deep aquifers).

TOPOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

Surface topography may be indicative of the direction of surficial groundwater flow. This information can be used to
assist the environmental professional in forming an opinion about the impact of nearby contaminated properties or,
should contamination exist on the target property, what downgradient sites might be impacted.

GROUNDWATER FLOW VELOCITY INFORMATION

Groundwater flow velocity information for a particular site is best determined by a qualified environmental professional
using site specific geologic and soil strata data. If such data are not reasonably ascertainable, it may be necessary
to rely on other sources of information, including geologic age identification, rock stratigraphic unit and soil
characteristics data collected on nearby properties and regional soil information. In general, contaminant plumes
move more quickly through sandy-gravelly types of soils than silty-clayey types of soils.
