Document Description
To support the engineering and design of the proposed Sites Reservoir Project, types of geotechnical studies are proposed:
• Surface geological investigations conducted via pedestrian surveys to map the existing geology of the region.
• Surface geophysical investigations to include non-invasive species surveys to determination stratification properties.
• Subsurface geotechnical investigations, including underground exploration utilizing several methods including auger and rotary wash borings with downhole testing and rock coring.
Project activities consist of four geotechnical investigations within aquatic resources. Geotechnical investigations would result in the excavation or discharge of fill material within jurisdictional waters. Geotechnical investigations within aquatic resources at Funks Reservoir will be conducted in dry conditions. Work activities are scheduled for late January 2023 or January 2024, depending on precipitation event occurrence. An existing seasonal wetland where impacts will occur is typically dry during the summer months. Therefore, work is planned between June and September 2022 in this aquatic feature.
