Messerly Wastewater Treatment Plant currently serves approximately 150,000 area residents. Discharges into a 360 acre constructed Phinizy Swamp wetland treatment system and eventually into the Savannah River, making sure that the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit limits can be met into the future. Area Geology & Anticipated Subsurface Conditions Based on our review of the published data at the project vicinity, the Augusta, Georgia is located on the Fall Line about halfway up the Savannah River on the fall line, providing a number of small falls on the Savannah River. The city itself marks the end of a navigable waterway for the river. The fall line is the Boundary between the Piedmont Region to the north and the Coastal Plain Region to the south. Within a mile or so downstream from the Fall Line, rivers and streams typically have floodplains or marshes across which they flow, and within three or four miles they meander. The most pronounced example is in the Savannah River's course at Augusta. The Coastal Plain is a region of Cretaceous and Cenozoic sedimentary rocks and sediments (sandy soils) which have flatter topography. The sedimentary rocks of the Coastal Plain partly consist of sediment eroded from the Piedmont over the last 100 million years or so, and partly of limestones generated by marine organisms and processes at sea. These strata dip toward the southeast, and so they are younger nearer the coast. Near the Fall Line, they are ultimately underlain by igneous and metamorphic rocks like those of the Piedmont. 3Q QI'fllt't:hllk";tI. En...tn)fllnfU(:t! fl.LIK1'talsT';"ititlg I I !

Messerly WPCP Augusta Utilities The surface conditions that may be encountered at the proposed project will likely to consist of sandy soils with silts and clays ranging in depths from near the surface to a possible depth of about 25 feet below the existing grade. The soils are suitable for use as engineered fill and will provide a good medium for dewatering. Based on our experience in the general area, we anticipate a layer ranging in thickness from 6' to as much as 15' of highly compressive moisture-sensitive organic clay. These organic soils will pose a significant challenge during the construction due to its low shear strength and the high levels of compressibility and poor permeability. The soils underneath the highly compressive organic clay will likely consist of well drained sands. While we were not involved in the original design of the foundation system, we anticipate significant technical challenges during the construction phase. These challenges can be summarized as follows depending on the type of foundation system selected to support the structures: Shallow Foundations: In the event that the proposed structures will be supported by shallow foundations the following challenges will be met: . Removal & Replacement of highly compressible organic soils . Support of construction equipment during the excavation of the organic soils . Dewatering of the site and establishing positive drainage during the construction in order to control moisture and compaction of backfill materials . Establishing safe slopes during the construction and the possible need for sheet piling . Selection of suitable soils and engineering fill from the excavated materials . Control of Compaction Efforts . Staging and Control of fill above grade causing the compressible soils andits impact on underground utilities The proposed team at Me Squared had extensive experience in dealing with the anticipated challenges at this project and can playa vital role as a consulting geotechnical engineering firm in providing practical and cost.savil1g solutions which will save Augusta Utilities time and money. Furthermore, our proven innovative solutions will help maintain the schedule during the construction, thus minimizing claims. Indeed, the proposed team of engineers were involved in a similar project with very similar subsurface conditions at the James E. Quarles Water Treatment Plant for the Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority and were able to provide innovated, practical, cost-effective solutions which saved the owner money and kept the project on schedule. .Q r"'1llt'fhrlk'a1.EI1\-'jrunmem.,1 f.Lltffl.;\IsTl:"ittng 11 I II I , , ,I i ~ ~ I I I I I J I \ I I -I I I J J I I I I I I ) I , , I . RFQ #07-196 Soil & Materials Testing Services for the J.B. Messerly WPCP Augusta Utilities Deep Foundations: In the event that the proposed structure will be supported on a deep foundation system (likely Precast-Prestressed concrete piles considering the soils conditions). The highly skilled and experienced engineers at MC Squared can assist and make recommendations in the following areas: . Confirm or re-evaluate the axial and up lift pile capacity and size of piles recommended for this project. We can optimize the pile length vs. capacity taking into consideration the negative skin friction that may exist due to the settlement and the consolidation of the highly compressive organic soils. . Perform pile test programs utilizing pile driving analysis PDA and pile integrity tester PIT in order to determine the size and length of production piles. . Monitor Pile Driving in order to assure that piles reach their minimum depth and capacity without over stressing the piles in both tension and compression. . Maintain accurate records of pile driving and quantity of piles driven using a saxistmeter. . Perform wave equation analysis and capwap of the proposed hammer and driving conditions in order to optimize efficiency of the pile driving system without over stressing the piles. . Providing real-time engineering solutions as not to adversely impact the schedule. Me Squared, Inc. (MO) have successfully completed similar projects in the past. Proiect Description This project, as we understand it, consists of the following: . 4 New Aeration Basins . Several New Splitter and Junction Boxes . New Grit Facility . Multiple Odor Control Complexes . Several New Buildings . Modifications to Existing Buildings . Extensive Underground Piping .
