Document Description
San Luis & Delta-Mendota Water Authority proposes to drill boreholes and install gorundwater monitoring wells on Holland Tract and Mandeville Island, and to drill boreholes in Old River and the northern part of Connection Slough. The subsurface exploration includes borings and monitoring wells at the landside of each proposed abutment using truck- or track-mounted drilling equipment. Borings beneath the proposed gate structure will be drilled from a small barge. Borings on the levee crest at each abutment will explore the thickness and strength of the underlying fill and peat/organic soil foundation, and the thickness and density of the sand formation lying beneath the peat/organic soil.
