The method developed
involved contouring the top surface of each waste area
into a berm shape. Two feet of clay was highly compacted
to a permeability of 1x10-7cm/s. The clay was
then covered with 30-mil polyvinyl chloride (PVC) welded
into one piece. A drain net with a filter on top was then
placed on top of the PVC in lieu of the normal 1 ft of
sand to allow the water to drain as much as possible
before reaching the PVC. Two feet of earth was placed on
top to provide for green cover growth (engineered caps). |

Design includes
laboratory characterization of candidate soils, numerical
modeling, performance predictions using advanced
unsaturated flow tools used in previous Sandia National
Laboratories (SNL) capillary barrier research, and
specification and installation of in situ instrumentation
to monitor the performance of the deployment |

All plots are equipped
with instruments to monitor daily precipitation,
percolation, runoff and sediment yield, and soil moisture
in order to compute a water balance for each design.
Evapotranspiration is estimated. Automated data
acquisition systems are used for most of the measurement
variables. |
Periodic measurements of
species composition, biomass, canopy cover, ground cover,
and leaf area index will also be taken of the vegetation
cover on each plot. |
