Summary of Conceptual DesignSite 3 Causeway Landfill Culvert Stabilization
Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island (CTO JM38)
19 August 2014
BACKGROUND
• Causeway provides vehicular access to Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island
• Causeway constructed over closed landfill (Site 3), with Land Use Controls in place
BACKGROUND
• Sinkholes noted above two sets of concrete culverts beneath the 3rd Battalion Causeway
POTENTIAL REMEDIES TO BE CONSIDERED
• Partial Excavation of Problem Areas/Depths
• Injection of Expanding Polyurethane Grout (from above and/or from within)
• Installation of Engineered Lining System
• Some Combination of Various Remedies
Conducted limited pre-design investigation in March 2014 for additional information to select remedy
LIMITED PRE-DESIGN INVESTIGATIONMARCH 2014
• Geophysical Survey FINDINGS- 2 Types of Anomalies Detected• Immediately above culverts = very loose soils, representative
of sink hole• Away from culverts = loose soils, not representative of sink
hole
LIMITED PRE-DESIGN INVESTIGATIONMARCH 2014
• Geotechnical Study FINDINGS– Medium dense silty sand to 4 feet, followed by
geosynthetic liner (no liner above culverts)– Very loose to medium dense silty sand and debris from
4 to 20 feet– Soft clay from 20 to 30 feet – Loose to dense silty sand from 30 feet to terminal depth– Groundwater encountered at approximately 10 feet– No evidence of contamination (visible, odors,
photoionization detector utilized)
LIMITED PRE-DESIGN INVESTIGATIONMARCH 2014
• Geotechnical Study FINDINGS– Sink Holes
• Apparent as chimney-like voids• Immediately above/adjacent to culverts• Majority exist in unpaved shoulders• Several (including beneath road) identified as not yet
open at surface• Result of very loose soils to depths of 10 to 15 feet
below ground surface• Attributed to vertical migration of sands to voids
(debris and lifting holes)• Additional and larger sink holes are likely
LIMITED PRE-DESIGN INVESTIGATIONMARCH 2014
• Geotechnical Study FINDINGS– Dips
• Broad roadway settlement issue away from culverts• Attributed to long-term settlement of soft clays at
depth and compression of landfill debris• No voids in dip areas away from culverts• Unlikely will develop into new sink hole features
PRE-DESIGN LAND SURVEYJUNE 2014
• South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control-Ocean and Coastal Resource Management Critical Line located
• Located and obtained elevations of key site features• Identified locations of soil borings from Pre-Design
Investigation, used to coordinate location of anomalies
• Located utilities where possible • Construction control points established
CONCEPTUAL DESIGNObjective• Repair existing sinkholes• Mitigate development of future sinkholes (to extent possible)• Minimize impacts to landfill
Preferred Remedy• Internal inspection• Internal repairs (from inside culverts)• Grouting of voids (from road surface)• Roadbed replacement• Approach avoids sheet piling/significant dewatering
CONCEPTUAL DESIGNAnticipated Construction Sequence
• Establish traffic control/install erosion control• Demolish docks• Install culvert plugs on upstream side, dewater culverts,
remove weirs, and remove debris• Conduct internal video inspection to verify conditions• During low tide (from inside culvert), seal lifting holes, gaps,
and cracks with polyurethane grout and repair spalls and exposed rebar with cement grout
• Inject cement compaction grout from road surface to no less than 2 feet below culverts, utilize 6 foot by 6 foot grid spacing
• Excavate 4 feet below road surface over culvert area, install geogrid, and restore road bed and surface

NEXT STEPS
• Draft Conceptual Design completed and submitted for review by Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island Partnering Team
• Once approved, Remedial Action Contractor Contractor to prepare Final Design Drawings
