GEOTECHNICAL AND HYDROGEOLOGIC INVESTIGATION

PROPOSED lANDFllL SITE FOR

DICKSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE

ATEC FTI.E NUMBER 24.3-92-00010

1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

An exploration and evaluation of the subsurface conditions have been conducted at

the site of a proposed landfill for Dickson County, Tennessee. The purpose of the

investigation was to determine the depth and types of subsoils present throughout the

site, to evaluate the suitability of these soils for use as landfill liner and buffer

materials, and to provide the required Hydrogeologic Report outlined in the

Tennessee Department of Health and Environment (TDHE), Division of Solid Waste

Regulations Chapter 1200-1-7-.04(9)(a) .

Six ( 6) exploratory borings have been performed throughout a 35 acre site shown on

the enclosed Boring Location Plan. The results of these borings have ide-ntified one

{1) distinct soil stratum consisting of red, moderate to highly plastic silty clay with

varying amounts of chert This stratum extends to the parent bedrock at depths of

64 feet or greater. The results of our investigation indicate that this stra~ is

suitable for use as the landfill buffer zone. Laboratory testing indicates that the

permeability of the stratum is typically 1.0x10"6 centimeters per second (cm/s) or

lower.

Hydrogeologic information avaHable for this area indicates that the uppermost

aquifer occurs within the Warsaw limestone, approximately 20 to 50 feet below the

bedrock surface at this site. The three (3) existing wells at the landfill are suitable

to monitor the water moving through the overburden and recharging the underlying

aquifer within the bedrock. Additional monitoring points should include the small

tributary to Worley Furnace Branch immediately west of the site, and either the two

existing private wells south of the landfill or Baker Branch.

2.0INIRODUCTION

This report presents the results of a geotechnical investigation and hydrogeologic

evaluation of the proposed sanitary land~ site in Dickson County, Tennessee. This

study was performed for the client, Dickson County Sanitary Landfill, in accordance

with our signed proposal dated October 22, 1991.

The scope of this investigation included a review of available geologic data for the

project area, an engineering reconnaissance of the project location, a subsurface

investigation consisting of six (6) soil test borings located as shown on the attached

Boring Location Plan, field and laboratory soil testing, and an engineering analysis

and evaluation of the subsurface materials encountered.

The purpose of the investigation was to determine the types of subsoils present

throughout the site, to evaluate the suitability of these soils for use as landfill liner

and buffer materials, and to provide the .required Hydrogeologic Report outlined in

the Tennessee Department of Health and Environment (TDHE), Division of Solid

Waste Regulations Chapter 1200-1-7-.04(9)(a) .

3.0 SITE AND PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS

The proposed landfill site is located on a 40 acre tract of land on the north side of

Eno Road, just east of Adcock Road, in Dickson County. The site is approximately

1.5 miles east of Dickson, Tennessee and 4.5 miles north of Interstate 40. Figure 1

in Appendix A depicts the location of the property. The site is bordered to the north

and '!Vest by wooded areas, Worley Furnace Branch and it's tributaries. The property

to the east is also partially wooded and partially developed.

Five (5) acres of the property on the east side of the site are currently being used as

a landfill under the old regulations. This section of the landfill will be closed while

the remaiDing 35 acres will be permitted under the new regulations. Current

operations consist of excavating approximately 20 feet of ov~rbmden and placing

bailed refuse above the natural undisturbed soil. It is expected that the newly

permitted landfill design will require excavation of the residual overburden to a

predetermined depth on which to construct a landfill liner system in accordance with

Tennessee Division of Waste Management regulations. Conversations with the client

and Mr. Bob Gardner (project designer) indicate that a synthetic liner will be used

to meet the minimum liner design standard outlined in Section U00-1-7-.04(4)(a)

The topography of the 35 acres proposed as landfill is partially wooded. This

property can best be described as gently rolling. A topographic survey of the

property is included on the Boring Location Plan (Figure 2) in Appendix A.

Permeability (em/sec)

All borings were extended to a depth of auger refusal between 23.0 to 45.0 feet

below the present ground surface. Based on past drilling at the site, we believe that

refusal occurred on dense chert beds within the soil. Limestone bedrock is expected

to be approximately 65 to 90 feet below the present ground surface.

Published geologic information indicates that the underlying bedrock. is the SL Louis

limestone of the Mississippian Period. This bedrock consists of a pa.).e to dark

yellowish brown, fine to very coarse grained, thin to very thick bedded limestone.

Local beds of extremely cherty, olive gray, calcareous siltstone or very silty limestone

exist, especially near the base of the formation. Bedrock exposures are rare in this

area. In most cases, the bedrock has weathered to a thick stratum of reddish clay

soil and angular blocks of chert, similar to that descn'bed in our borings.

It should be noted that the SL Louis Limestone is a formation highly susceptible to

dissolution along joints and bedding planes in the rock mass. This weathering can

result in soil piping and other forms of internal soil erosion which can result in

ground subsidence. These features are not prominent in the Dickson area. No

sinkholes were observed on the Dickson 7.5 minute. quadrangle map within a 1.5 mile

radius of the site .

5.0 HYDROGEOLOGIC ASSESSMENT

Four monitoring wells currently exist at the site, one of which has been dry since

installation. The location of the three (3) active wells is shown on the Boring

Location Plan. The construction of the three active wells is reported to consist of 4

inch PVC pipe, screened from 10 to 20 feet above the bedrock surface. The

screened interval is surrounded by pea gravel to approximately 5 feet above the top

of the screen with a 2 to 5 foot thick bentonite seal above the gravel. The remainder

of the riser pipe is surrounded by cement

Groundwater elevation readings taken on March 16, 1992 revealed the following

data.

WELL SURFACE BOTTOM DEPTII TO WATER ELEV. WELLEL WATER (ft) ELEV.

1 861.9 772.9 78.0 783.9

2 830.9 766.4 19.2 811.7

4 831.2 747.2 35.2 796.0

The results of these readings indicate that the groundwater being monitored by these

wells is perched within. the overburden immediately above the bedrock surface. The

placement of the screened interval within the relatively impermeable clays

immediately above the bedrock will allow for the groundwater to mound at the well

points. This has resulted in an undefinable groundwater flow direction in the

overburden using these three wells .

. A review of the report "Groundwater in the Dickson Area of the Western Highland

Rim of Tennessee", published in 1984, reveals that the groundwater in this area

occurs primarily in the Warsaw Limestone, the top of which is near Elev. 720 to 750.

Figure 3 in Appendix A shows the location of 20 known wells within a 1 mile radius

Materials excavated from the site should be adequate for use as temporary and final

cover material. Final confirmation should be made on remolded permeabilities of

. representative samples taken from the borrow source. At this time, we expect that

the soil removed during excavation will be used. The soil should be compacted to

at least 95 percent of the standard Proctor maximum dry density within a moisture

range of zero (0) to three (3) percent above optimum. Final recommendations can

be made after testing of the soiL

Our review of the available hydrogeologic information indicates that the existing well

placement at the site intersects the groundwater recharging the underlying aquifer

in the Warsaw limestone. Based on the site topography, Well No. 1 is up gradient

and Well Nos. 2 and 4 are down gradient. These wells have a good chance of

intersecting any contaminated groundwater moving through the overburden before

it reaches the aquifer. To properly use these wells, it will be necessary to bail them

on a monthly basis before sampling to insure proper recharge and groundwater

movement to the wells because of mounding effects.

In addition to the three (3) existing monitoring well points, it is recommended that

monitoring occur in the small tributary to Worley Furnace Branch immediately west

of the site, and the private wells owned by J. Pickett and R. Buchannan south of the

site. If these wells are unavailable to monitor, then a monitoring point should be set

up at Baker Branch •
