FINAL INTRODUCTION, SUMMARY CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The release of over five million cubic yards of coal combustion residue from the Tennessee Valley Authority’s Kingston, Tennessee facility in December 2008, which flooded more than 300 acres of land and damaged homes and property, is a wake-up call for diligence on coal combustion residue disposal units. A first step toward this goal is to assess the stability and functionality of the ash impoundments and other units, then quickly take any needed corrective measures.
This assessment of the stability and functionality of the Clinch River Power Station Ash Pond Management Units (Bottom Ash Pond 1A/1B and Bottom Ash Pond 2) is based on a review of available documents and a site assessment conducted by Dewberry personnel on February 17, 2011. In general, we found the supporting technical documentation provided to be adequate for preparation of this report (Section 1.1.3). For the purpose of this report, Bottom Ash Pond 1A/1B is defined as Ash Pond 1 and Bottom Ash Pond 2 is defined as Ash Pond 2. In summary, Ash Pond 1 is rated FAIR and Ash Pond 2 is rated POOR for continued safe and reliable operation.
An engineer from the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Dam Safety and Floodplain Management (DCR DSFM) has indicated that the Commonwealth of Virginia plans to take action in 2012 to investigate potential hydrologic and structural stability issues with both Ash Ponds 1 and 2.
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is investigating the potential for catastrophic failure of Coal Combustion Surface Impoundments (i.e., management unit) from occurring at electric utilities in an effort to protect lives and property from the consequences of a dam failure or the improper release of impounded slurry. The EPA initiative is intended to identify conditions that may adversely affect the structural stability and functionality of a management unit and its appurtenant structures (if present); to note the extent of deterioration (if present), status of maintenance and/or a need for immediate repair; to evaluate conformity with current design and construction practices; and to determine the hazard potential classification for units not currently classified by the management unit owner or by a state or federal agency. The initiative will address management units that are classified as having a Less-than-Low, Low, Significant, or High Hazard Potential ranking (for Classification, see pp. 3-8 of the 2004 Federal Guidelines for Dam Safety).
In early 2009, the EPA sent letters to coal-fired electric utilities seeking information on the safety of surface impoundments and similar facilities that receive liquid-borne material that store or Clinch River Power Plant ii American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL dispose of coal combustion residue. This letter was issued under the authority of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) Section 104(e), to assist the Agency in assessing the structural stability and functionality of such management units, including which facilities should be visited to perform a safety assessment of the berms, dikes, and dams used in the construction of these impoundments.
EPA requested that utility companies identify all management units including surface impoundments or similar diked or bermed management units or management units designated as landfills that receive liquid-borne material used for the storage or disposal of residuals or by- products from the combustion of coal, including, but not limited to, fly ash, bottom ash, boiler slag, or flue gas emission control residuals. Utility companies provided information on the size, design, age and the amount of material placed in the units (See Appendix C).
The purpose of this report is to evaluate the condition and potential of residue release from management units for hazard potential classification. This evaluation included a site visit. Prior to conducting the site visit, a two-person team reviewed the information submitted to EPA, reviewed any relevant publicly available information from state or federal agencies regarding the unit hazard potential classification (if any) and accepted information provided via telephone communication with the management unit Owner (Appalachian Power d/b/a American Electric Power). Also, after the field visit, additional information was received by Dewberry & Davis LLC from the Owner about the Clinch River Ash Pond Management Units. The additional information was reviewed and also used in preparation of this report.
This report presents the opinion of the assessment team as to the potential of catastrophic failure and reports on the condition of the management unit(s).
Note: The terms “embankment”, “berm”, “dike” and “dam” are used interchangeably within this report, as are the terms “pond”, “basin”, and “impoundment”.
LIMITATIONS The assessment of dam safety reported herein is based on field observations and review of readily available information provided by the owner/operator of the subject coal combustion residue management unit(s). Qualified Dewberry engineering personnel performed the field observations and review and made the assessment in conformance with the required scope of work and in accordance with reasonable and acceptable engineering practices. No other warranty, either written or implied, is made with regard to our assessment of dam safety.

Clinch River Power Plant vii American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 1.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1.1 CONCLUSIONS
Conclusions are based on visual observations from a one-day site visit, February 17, 2011, and review of technical documentation provided by the Owner, which is provided in Appendix A.
1.1.1 Conclusions Regarding the Structural Soundness of the Management Unit(s)
Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 did not show any areas of significant structural concern during the one-day site visit. The stability analysis report for Ash Pond 1 was prepared, signed and sealed by the Owner’s engineers and indicates that the main perimeter dike for Ash Pond 1 is structurally sound. The stability analysis report for Ash Pond 2 was prepared, signed and sealed by BBC&M engineers and indicates that the main perimeter dike for Ash Pond 2 is structurally sound. However the stability analysis report for Ash Pond 2 assumed that only the ash in contact with the existing water table was saturated and not saturated to the top of the ash in the impoundment. This was assumed because at the time the Owner was considering a closure permit for Ash Pond 2 and that it would be capped and would function as a landfill. The Owner submitted the closure plan for Ash Pond 2 for regulatory approval in 2009 but has since retracted the plan.
We note that the Virginia DCR DSFM has not accepted the structural analysis. The reasons for not accepting the analysis include: the analysis was not sealed by a Virginia PE; the analysis does not address large quantities of shale that the State has indicated were illegally dumped on the North end of Pond #2; and the analysis misrepresents saturation conditions because there are no spillways from the ponds. (See Appendix A – Docs 16 and 17)
1.1.2 Conclusions Regarding the Hydrologic/Hydraulic Safety of the Management Unit(s)
Hydrologic/Hydraulic calculations were not provided for Ash Pond 1 or Ash Pond 2 so conclusions regarding hydrologic/hydraulic safety cannot be made at this time.
Clinch River Plant 1-1 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL The Virginia DCR DSFM believes that the utility has misrepresented the drainage areas for the ponds and plans to request additional hydrologic analyses in 2012.
1.1.3 Conclusions Regarding the Adequacy of Supporting Technical Documentation
The supporting technical documentation provided is adequate for preparation of this report. Data reviewed by Dewberry did not contain hydrologic/hydraulic calculations. Technical documentation reviewed in preparation of this report is provided in Appendix A.
1.1.4 Conclusions Regarding the Description of the Management Unit(s)
The description of Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 provided by the Owner was an accurate representation of what Dewberry observed in the field. We note that Virginia DCR DSFM does not believe that accurate information concerning drainage conditions at the site has been provided by the Owner. (See Appendix A – Docs 16 and 17)
1.1.5 Conclusions Regarding the Field Observations
Dewberry staff was provided adequate access to Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 to complete the field assessment. The visual assessment of the perimeter dikes for both ponds showed no significant signs of erosion, settlement or instability. Seepage was observed along the down slope of Ash Pond 1 but was well controlled with monitoring weirs. No seepage was observed at Ash Pond 2. The spillway for Ash Pond 1 appeared to be functioning properly. The spillway for Ash Pond 2 is currently not active.
During the field assessment it was noted that a large boulder had dislodged from the adjacent hillside and impacted one of the slurry pipes that conveys bottom ash to Ash Pond 1. This pipe showed no visible signs of leakage. Dewberry understands that the boulder would be removed and the pipe repaired as appropriate. No other indications of unsafe conditions or conditions needing immediate remedial action were noted during the one-day site visit.
However, subsequent to the site visit the Regional Engineer, DCR DSFM, who participated in the site visit, indicated considerable concern about the safety of both ash ponds. Based upon observations made during the site
Clinch River Plant 1-2 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL visit the Virginia DCR DSFM plans to take action in 2012 that could require AEP to analyze and, if necessary, remediate both ash ponds.
1.1.6 Conclusions Regarding the Adequacy of Maintenance and Methods of Operation
Current operation and maintenance procedures appear adequate for Ash Pond 1. Operation and maintenance procedures were discontinued at Ash Pond 2 when it became inactive in 1998.
Virginia DSC DSFM has indicated that woody vegetation control on both dams does not comply with state regulations. (Appendix A – Docs 16 and 17)
1.1.7 Conclusions Regarding the Adequacy of the Surveillance and Monitoring Program
Current surveillance and monitoring program procedures appear adequate for Ash Pond 1. Although Ash Pond 2 became inactive in 1998, surveillance and monitoring procedures for the pond are still in effect. Ash Pond 2 is monitored at the same time monitoring procedures for Ash Pond 1 are conducted. However, a written record of monitoring results for Ash Pond 2 is not kept.
1.1.8 Classification Regarding Suitability for Continued Safe and Reliable Operation
Clinch River Ash Pond 1 is rated FAIR with acceptable performance expected under static and seismic loading conditions in accordance with applicable safety regulatory criteria. Ash Pond 2 is rated POOR due to use of potentially non-representative assumptions in the structural stability analysis and the lack of hydrologic data addressing drainage to the pond. A hydrologic and hydraulic analysis is required for both units to demonstrate adequate hydrologic loading conditions. The classifications are based on the one-day visual assessment performed by Dewberry and supporting technical documentation provided in Appendix A of this report.
Clinch River Plant 1-3 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL We note that the Regional Engineer, Virginia DSC DSFM, has indicated that in 2012 the State will require additional hydrology-related action be taken by the utility for Ash Ponds 1 and 2, and that additional structural analyses will be required for Ash Pond 2. (see Appendix A – Docs 16 and 17)
1.2 RECOMMENDATIONS
1.2.1 Recommendations Regarding the Structural Stability
Perform a structural stability analysis of Ash Pond 2 that is representative of ash saturation conditions in the pond.
1.2.2 Recommendations Regarding the Hydrologic/Hydraulic Safety
A hydrologic and hydraulic analysis should be performed to evaluate the hydrologic/hydraulic safety of Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2. The analysis should consider off-site drainage to Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 and should be in accordance with all requirements for such analyses as required by Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation (VA DCR), Division of Dam Safety and Floodplain Management, including spillway capacity.
This recommendation is consistent with our understanding of the State’s planned actions in 2012.
1.2.3 Recommendations Regarding the Maintenance and Methods of Operation
It is recommended that the facility maintain frequent inspections of Ash Pond 1 and resume recording monitoring results for inspections of Ash Pond 2 in accordance with Owner’s current inspection program until such time that the facility is formally closed and the closure is approved by the state.
It is recommended that all underbrush and trees be removed from the Ash Pond 2 perimeter dike in accordance with VA DCR DSFM requirements.
It is recommended that all animal burrows located along the perimeter dike of Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 be backfilled in accordance with standard geotechnical engineering practices for dams, and monitored for future reoccurrence.
Clinch River Plant 1-4 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL It is recommended that the Owner perform an interior inspection of all outfall pipes from the Ash Pond 1 & 2 outlet structures to the reclaim pond as well as an interior inspection of the pipe systems that bypass off-site drainage through Ash Pond 1. Interior inspections should focus on the structural integrity of the pipes as well as seepage paths into and out of the pipes. The inspection report should summarize findings and remedial action required, if any.
1.2.4 Recommendations Regarding Continued Safe and Reliable Operation
No recommendations, other than the above studies and maintenance activities, appear warranted at this time.

2.2 COAL COMBUSTION RESIDUE HANDLING
2.2.1 Fly Ash
Fly ash generated inside boilers at this facility is collected by electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) and moved by forced draft air fans through ducts and into hoppers. Any fly ash remaining on the ESP charged plates is removed through applied vibrations and knocking of the plates. Vacuum
Clinch River Plant 2-2 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL lines then carry dry ash collected inside hoppers to a concrete fly ash silo. The concrete silos at the plant are approximately 100 ft tall and 30 ft in diameter; each rests on a concrete pad. No secondary containment exists for either the hopper or concrete silos. Once in the silos, fly ash is conditioned with water to prevent dust emissions as well as to facilitate in transportation. Wet fly ash residuals are either sold for beneficial use or hauled in trucks for disposal at an approved offsite landfill.
2.2.2 Bottom Ash
Bottom ash and clinkers from boiler tubes are collected inside hoppers below the boilers. Once residuals reach the hopper, they are watered down and ground into slurry that falls into a sump. From this sump it is pumped to a tank. This tank is used to help equalize and control the solid content of the slurry. Slurry is pumped periodically through basalt-lined iron pipes to Ash Pond 1, a distance of about 1500 ft. Slurry pipes are primarily located above ground and have no secondary containment.
2.3 SIZE AND HAZARD CLASSIFICATION
According to the VA DCR DSFM, inventory reports (Appendix A, Document 2A) Ash Pond 1 has a maximum capacity of 1,240 acre-feet with a maximum design height for storage of 55 feet. Ash Pond 2 has a maximum capacity of approximately 126 acre-feet with a maximum design height of 56 feet (Appendix A, Document 2B). (As noted in Table 2.1, the Owner indicated dam heights of 65 feet and 56 feet, respectively) Based on Table 2.2a, Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 are classified as intermediate size impoundments since dam height is the controlling factor for both Ash Ponds.
Table 2.2a: USACE ER 1110-2-106 Size Classification Impoundment Category Storage (Ac-ft) Height (ft) Small 50 and < 1,000 25 and < 40 Intermediate 1,000 and < 50,000 40 and < 100 Large > 50,000 > 100
Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 are classified as Significant Hazard facilities, see Table 2.2b. If Ash Pond 1 and/or Ash Pond 2 were to fail, it is anticipated that there would be significant environmental losses along Clinch River and Dumps Creek. In addition, it is suspected that there would be damage to State Route 616, State Route
Clinch River Plant 2-3 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 665 and potentially the Norfolk & Western railway. While loss of human life would not be expected, economic losses would be expected.
We note that State records currently indicate the ponds are listed as Low Hazard dams, but that the State is re-considering the classification (to Significant). (See Appendix A – Docs 16 and 17)
Table 2.2b: FEMA Federal Guidelines for Dam Safety Hazard Classification Loss of Human Life Economic, Environmental, Lifeline Losses Low None Expected Low and generally limited to owner Significant None Expected Yes High Probable. One or more Yes (but not necessary for expected classification)
2.4 AMOUNT AND TYPE OF RESIDUALS CURRENTLY CONTAINED IN THE UNIT(S) AND MAXIMUM CAPACITY
The volume of CCRs stored in Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 at the time of the one- day field assessment was not available by the Owner. Table 2.3 summarizes the storage capacity for Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2.

Clinch River Plant 2-4 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 2.5 PRINCIPAL PROJECT STRUCTURES
2.5.1 Earth Embankment
Ash Pond 1
According to the Dam Safety Inspection Report dated July 18, 1978 (Appendix A, Document 4), Ash Pond 1 was originally built as one large pond; a side hill dike creating an embankment that runs parallel to both Route 616 and Route 665. Subsequently, a splitter dike was constructed that divided the pond into Pond 1A and Pond 1B. The earthen embankment, built in 1955, was originally constructed of silty clay soil with a mixture of shale and sandstone fragments to an elevation of approximately 1540 feet. The original dike has been raised several times since, using the upstream method, to reach its current crest elevation of 1570 feet. The first raise of the dike was composed of fly ash and bottom ash material. All subsequent lifts to the dike have used shale rock (Appendix A, Document 5).
Ash Pond 2
The design summary for the proposed final closure of Ash Pond 2, by BBC&M Engineering, indicates the original pond embankment was constructed in 1954 (Appendix A, Document 6). The embankment has since become a three-tiered dike system consisting of a lower, middle and upper dike. According to soil borings completed in 2006 and 2008, the dikes consist of shale fragments, silty clays, clayey silt and sand. The top of the upper dike has a crest elevation of 1565, although a portion of the dike was removed in 1998 to eliminate the potential of ponding water. The middle and lower dikes remain; each is filled with compacted ash to crest elevations of 1570 and 1559, respectively (per Owner).
Clinch River Plant 2-5 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 2.5.2 Outlet Structures
Ash Pond 1
The outlet structure for Ash Pond 1 is located in the north corner of cell Pond 1B. The outlet structure consists of an overflow drainage shaft and a 36-inch reinforced concrete pipe that directs water to a catch basin at the toe of the perimeter dike where it then flows through a 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe to an existing reclaim pond adjacent to Clinch River. The outlet structure serves as the principal and emergency spillway for Ash Pond 1.
Virginia DCR DSFM believes this outlet structure is inadequate to handle drainage to the pond (see Appendix A – Doc 16).
Ash Pond 2
The outlet structure for Ash Pond 2 is located at the northeast side of the facility and is currently inactive. The outlet structure consists of an overflow drainage shaft and a 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe. The pipe previously conveyed flow over Dumps Creek via a pipe bridge and below State Route 616 and an existing railroad before combining with outflow from Ash Pond 1 in the existing reclaim pond adjacent to Clinch River. When it was active the outlet structure served as the principal and emergency spillway for Ash Pond 2.
2.6 CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN FIVE MILES DOWN GRADIENT
Immediately downstream of Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 is the Clinch River Power Plant on the opposite side of Clinch River as well as State Routes 616 and 665 and Norfolk & Western railway. The nearest downstream town is approximately 6 miles away at St. Paul, Virginia.
Clinch River Plant 2-6 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 3.0 SUMMARY OF RELEVANT REPORTS, PERMITS, AND INCIDENTS
3.1 SUMMARY OF LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITS
Virginia DCR – Dam Safety Program
VA DCR has a dam safety program under which Ash Pond 1(Inventory Number 16703) and Ash Pond 2 (Inventory Number 16702) are state-regulated. Each pond was issued a six-year Regular Class III Operation and Maintenance Certificate on March 20, 2008 (Appendix A, Document 2A and Document 2B). Under the dam safety program, AEP is required to submit annual inspection reports to DCR as well as an engineer’s inventory report and a renewal certification application at the conclusion of each six year term. Permitting is administered by DCR, dependent on information provided by AEP regarding basic inventory of each pond, an emergency action plan and an operation and maintenance review.
Virginia DEQ – NPDES Permits
Seepage and discharges generated from Ash Pond 1 outfall into a reclaim pond which circulates to a treatment facility that recycles the water for use on site. As there is no direct pond discharge to a neighboring body of water, an NPDES Permit from Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VA DEQ) is not required for Ash Pond 1. Ash Pond 2, however, is permitted by VA DEQ. The seepage collected at the toe of perimeter dike is discharged directly into Dumps Creek. Seepage discharge is currently listed as Outfall 015 under the NPDES Permit No. VA0001015, issued September 15, 2009. Under this NPDES Permit, AEP is required to submit monthly Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMR) to VA DEQ for this permitted outfall.
3.2 SUMMARY OF SPILL/RELEASE INCIDENTS
Ash Pond 1
No documented spill/release incidents to the best of Dewberry’s knowledge.
Ash Pond 2
In 1967, a failure of the lower dike of Ash Pond 2 occurred. SourceWatch documented that approximately 130 million gallons of coal ash slurry spilled into Dumps Creek; however, this figure could not be confirmed by the Owner.
Clinch River Plant 3-1 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL It is alleged that the spill affected fish and benthic fauna on Dumps Creek and Clinch River as well as aquatic insects, snails and mussel populations. Dewberry requested information from the Owner regarding the failure but after further research by the Owner, no additional documentation was found regarding the incident.
The cause of the failure or the extent of damages to the Plant, roads and railroad has not been documented to the best of Dewberry’s knowledge. At the time of failure, the middle and upper dikes had not yet been built. Damage to the lower dike was repaired and Ash Pond 2 was put back in service.
Clinch River Plant 3-2 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 4.0 SUMMARY OF HISTORY OF CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION
4.1 SUMMARY OF CONSTRUCTION HISTORY
4.1.1 Original Construction
Ash Pond 1
Ash Pond 1 was built in 1955 as one facility consisting of one continuous side-hill dike.
Ash Pond 2
Ash Pond 2 was built in 1954 as one facility consisting of one continuous side-hill dike located in the old river valley of Dumps Creek, which required re-routing the creek to its current alignment (Appendix A, Document 6). The portion of the dike adjacent to Dumps Creek was armored with rip-rap along the toe of slope.
4.1.2 Significant Changes/Modifications in Design since Original Construction
Ash Pond 1
A splitter dike was constructed in Ash Pond 1, dividing the pond into cells identified by the Owner as Pond 1A and Pond 1B. The original perimeter dike has been raised several times by placement of material directly over the crest of the dike. Toe drains (10-inch perforated pipes encased in gravel backfill) have been installed along the toe of the embankment to control seepage. Seepage discharge collects in a sump pump and in v- notched weirs at the toe of the embankment. All seepage flow is conveyed to the outfall pipe and into the reclaim pond adjacent to Clinch River.
During the period of November through December 1990 a cement- bentonite-fly ash (CBFA) cutoff wall was constructed within the perimeter dike of Ash Pond 1. The cutoff wall served to block potential seepage paths in the dike to improve downstream stability. The cutoff is approximately 2.5 ft wide, 2,150 ft long and reaches a depth of approximately 65 ft. It was installed along the entire length of the perimeter dike and keyed into both abutments as well as the original dike material. Construction of the cutoff wall crossing the existing 68-ft deep, 36-inch diameter outfall pipe was limited to 60 ft deep and 10 ft on both sides of the estimated outfall pipe centerline (Appendix A, Document 7).
Clinch River Plant 4-1 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL Ash Pond 2
The original Ash Pond 2 dike has been raised several times since it was first constructed in 1954. Since then the original dike has become a three- tiered system, consisting of a lower, middle and upper dike. The original dike was raised by constructing new dikes upslope of subsequently lower dikes and on top of existing fly ash fill. A 12-inch toe drain system encased in gravel was installed along the toe of the middle dike (Appendix A, Document 4). Seepage discharges via one outfall from the toe of the lower dike into Dumps Creek in accordance with an NPDES General Permit.
4.1.3 Significant Repairs/Rehabilitation since Original Construction
Ash Pond 1
There are seepage concerns from the dikes surrounding Ponds 1A and 1B (see more detailed discussion in Section 7.3). In 2006, the Owner commenced with a seepage control project that consisted of placing inverted filters with rip-rap cover along most of the downstream face of the perimeter dike of Ash Pond 1. This project was completed in 2009; however, the Owner has indicated that there are plans to extend the limits of the project to provide near-complete coverage to the downstream face.
Ash Pond 2
No significant repairs/rehabilitation since original construction except for repairs of the dike when it failed in 1967. No additional information was found regarding the repairs that resulted from this event. Section 3.2 elaborates further on the 1967 failure.
4.2 SUMMARY OF OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES
4.2.1 Original Operational Procedures
Data reviewed by Dewberry did not contain the original operational procedures for Ash Pond 1 or Ash Pond 2.
Clinch River Plant 4-2 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 4.2.2 Significant Changes in Operational Procedures and Original Startup
Significant changes in operation procedures and original startup cannot be confirmed based on the data reviewed by Dewberry.
4.2.3 Current Operational Procedures
Ash Pond 1 is the only active management unit at the Clinch River Power Plant. Ash Pond 2 is currently inactive and has been inactive since 1998. Ash Pond 1 is primarily used for handling all bottom ash residuals generated by plant operations. Fly ash residuals may also be sluiced to Ash Pond 1, though AEP has stated that this is on rare occasions, since nearly 100% of fly ash residuals are hauled off-site to an approved landfill or sold for other beneficial use. Ash Pond 1 is periodically dredged, residuals allowed to dry, and the CCR is trucked off-site to an approved landfill or for other beneficial use.
4.2.4 Other Notable Events since Original Startup
No additional information was provided to Dewberry concerning other notable events, except the 1967 failure of Ash Pond 2, that have impacted the operation of either ash pond.
Clinch River Plant 4-3 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 5.0 FIELD OBSERVATIONS
5.1 PROJECT OVERVIEW AND SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS
Dewberry personnel, Scott Clarke, P.E. and Lorainne Ramos Nieves, P.E., CFM, performed a site visit on February 17, 2011 in company with the participants listed under Section 1.3.1.
The site visit began at 8:30 AM. The weather was clear and sunny. Photographs were taken of conditions observed and selected photographs are included in this report for visual reference. All pictures were taken by Dewberry personnel during the site visit. Appendix B includes two Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Forms, one for Ash Pond 1 and one for Ash Pond 2. These checklists provide a good summary and inventory of the items assessed during the site visit.
5.2 ASH POND 1
5.2.1 Crest
The crest of the perimeter dike had no significant signs of depressions, tension cracks or other indications of settlement or shear failure. Figure 5.2.1-1 and Figure 5.2.1-2 shows the typical crest conditions along the perimeter dike.

Figure 5.2.1-2: Crest, Northeast. Route 616 and railroad to right. 5.2.2 Upstream/Inside Slope
The visible upstream slope of the perimeter dike, including all groins, had adequate and well maintained cover of grasses/weeds. The upstream slope below the permanent pool was not observed. There were no obvious signs of scarps, bulging cracks, depressions or other indications of slope instability. Rip-rap armoring was observed at operating pool elevations to mitigate wave erosion. Figure 5.2.2 shows a representative upstream slope section of the perimeter dike looking south.

Figure 5.2.2: Upstream slope, South. Plant shown in background. 5.2.3 Downstream/Outside Slope and Toe
The visible downstream slope of the perimeter dike had adequate and well maintained cover of grasses/weeds as well as rip-rap armoring and inverted filter. A paved access road from Route 665 runs up the downstream slope of the perimeter dike to its crest. An animal burrow was observed along the downstream slope of the perimeter dike. The burrow hole was small in size and near the crest. No scarps, sloughs, bulging, cracks, depressions or other indications of slope instability were observed along the downstream slope. Figures 5.2.3-1 thru 5.2.3-3 show representative downstream slope sections of the perimeter dike.

The perimeter dike has two abutments; the south and north abutments. Both abutment contacts consist of a drainage ditch. The south ditch shows some signs of erosion due to wet weather flow runoff from the adjacent hillside. The north ditch appeared in better condition with some stone and a v-notch weir that is used to monitor seepage, which was present on the day of the assessment. Apart from some minor erosion along the south abutment ditch, both abutments were well maintained. There were no observed scarps, sloughs, bulging, cracks, depressions or other indications of slope instability. Figures 5.2.4-1 and 5.2.4-2 show south and north abutment contacts.

5.3 ASH POND 2
5.3.1 Crest
Portions of the upper dike have been removed and some re-grading has been completed near the crest of the middle dike. A small sized animal burrow was observed along the crest of the middle dike. No depressions, tension cracks or other indications of settlement or shear failure were observed on the crest of the middle or lower dike. Figure 5.3.1-1 and Figure 5.3.1-2 show typical crest conditions along the dike.

Clinch River Plant 5-8 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 5.3.2 Upstream/Inside Slope
Upstream slopes for the middle and lower dikes of the embankment are not visible due to placement of fill material. The upstream slopes of the upper dike were visible. No slope maintenance appears to be in place (pond is currently inactive). Slopes are covered with sparse grass/weeds.
5.3.3 Downstream/Outside Slope and Toe
The downstream slopes of the dikes are covered in high grass/weeds. The upper dike had some areas of tree growth. Significant tree growth between the toe of the lower dike and Dumps Creek made visual observations difficult. Based on what could be observed there were no scarps, sloughs, bulging, cracks, depressions or other indications of slope instability along any portion of the dikes. Figures 5.3.3-1 thru 5.3.3-3 show representative sections of the downstream slopes and toe.

5.4.1 Overflow Structure
Ash Pond 1
The overflow spillway structure for Ash Pond 1 is located in the north corner of the facility (Figure 5.4.1-1). The structure appeared to be in satisfactory condition and operating as designed. There were no obvious signs of trash and/or debris around the intake. Water was observed entering the spillway but could not be seen exiting the spillway as the outfall pipe consists of a long storm sewer that outfalls into the existing reclaim pond below its permanent pool.
Clinch River Plant 5-11 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL
Figure 5.4.1-1: Overflow spillway structure Ash Pond 2
The overflow spillway structure for Ash Pond 2 is located at the eastern midpoint of the facility (Figure 5.4.1-2). The structure appeared to be in poor condition with obvious signs of corrosion and encroaching vegetation. The spillway is currently inactive. Fissures/cracks were observed immediately west of the spillway where it appeared runoff had been migrating into existing ash residuals. The overflow spillway structure is located at an elevation significantly higher than the current finished grade around it. Discharge through the structure and outfall pipes is not possible at this time.
The Virginia DCR representative who participated in the onsite visit indicated particular concern that, as noted above, runoff is migrating into the ash residuals and there is no corresponding outlet for accumulating water.

5.4.2 Outlet Conduit
Ash Pond 1
The spillway outlet conduit for Ash Pond 1 consists of a 36-inch reinforced concrete pipe leading to a catch basin that subsequently outfalls to a 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe that drains to the existing reclaim pond. The 30-inch outfall was not visible as it is completely submerged below the permanent pool of the reclaim pond (Figure 5.4.2-1).

Ash Pond 2
The spillway outlet conduit for Ash Pond 2 consists of a 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe. The conduit connects to the same 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe as Ash Pond 1 prior to reaching the reclaim pond. The outlet conduit was not visible at the time of the site assessment.
Clinch River Plant 5-14 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 6.0 HYDROLOGIC/HYDRAULIC SAFETY
6.1 SUPPORTING TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
6.1.1 Flood of Record
No documentation was provided to Dewberry regarding local flood records. USGS river gage (USGS 03524000) for the Clinch River, located approximately 4 miles upstream of the plant, shows the largest peak flows occurred during 1957 and 1977. These peak flows are comparable to the Clinch River 1% annual chance (100-year) flood discharges found in the Russell County FIS Study. Therefore, the flood of record is comparable to the base flood elevation. The Russell County FEMA FIRM dated September 29, 2010, Map Number 51167C0215C and the FIRM dated September 29, 2010, Map Number 51167C0205C are provided for reference (See Appendix A, Document 1, Exhibits 1 - 4).
6.1.2 Inflow Design Flood
Data reviewed by Dewberry did not contain Inflow Design Flood information. It should be noted that Ash Pond 1 has the potential of receiving run-off from three areas west of the pond, see Figure 6.1.2-1. Run-off is controlled from entering the pond in Areas 1 & 2 through the use of run-off diversion dams with open headwall culverts that channel flow to an outlet at the eastern edge of the pond. During the site visit these culverts appeared to be joined by a series of manhole structures prior to crossing through the Ash Pond 1 internal dike and outfalling. It was unclear how offsite run-off was controlled from Area 3. Additionally, no controls were observed for offsite run-off draining to Ash Pond 2.
Virginia DCR DSFM plans in 2012 to direct the Owner to further investigate runoff control to and from these ash ponds (see Appendix A – Docs 16 and 17).

Data reviewed by Dewberry did not contain a detailed technical downstream flood analysis; however, according to the owner, the Emergency Action Plan for the facility contains copies of flood inundation maps and a dam break analysis summary.
Clinch River Plant 6-2 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 6.2 ADEQUACY OF SUPPORTING TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
Data reviewed by Dewberry did not contain the necessary documentation to make a proper determination on adequacy of hydrologic and hydraulic safety factors. There is also no information on whether hydrologic safety factors were considered in the design of Ash Pond 1 or Ash Pond 2.
6.3 ASSESSMENT OF HYDROLOGIC/HYDRAULIC SAFETY
An assessment of Hydrologic/Hydraulic Safety cannot be made at this time.
Clinch River Plant 6-3 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 7.0 STRUCTURAL STABILITY
7.1 SUPPORTING TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
7.1.1 Stability Analyses and Load Cases Analyzed
Ash Pond 1
A stability analysis report was provided for Ash Pond 1 (Appendix A, Document 5). The stability analysis is based on geotechnical investigations completed by MACTEC in 2009 as well as various instrumentation reading summaries acquired from plant records. The slope stability analysis of the perimeter dike considered static and seismic conditions under steady-state seepage.
Ash Pond 2
A design summary was provided for final closure of Ash Pond 2 (Appendix A, Document 6). With this summary a stability analysis was included. However, this analysis was completed assuming the ash was saturated up to existing groundwater levels and not to the top of the existing ash.
7.1.2 Design Parameters and Dam Materials
Ash Pond 1
A total of 12 boring logs were completed in 2009 by MACTEC. It was determined that the dike material for Ash Pond 1 was primarily composed of shale rock, with the exception of fly ash and bottom ash material that was found in a lower portion of the dike at a depth coincidental to the first raised section of the dike. Refer to Appendix A, Document 5 for more detail regarding design parameters considered in the slope stability analysis.
Ash Pond 2
A total of 8 boring logs were completed in 2008 by BBC&M Engineering and the Owner. It was determined that the dike material consisted of shale fragments, silty clays, clayey silt and sand.
Clinch River Plant 7-1 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 7.1.3 Uplift and/or Phreatic Surface Assumptions
Ash Pond 1
As part of the 2009 geotechnical investigation, eight new piezometers were installed to complement twelve existing piezometers along the perimeter dike. Piezometers were used to determine phreatic surface elevations at the crest and toe for use in the slope stability analysis.
Ash Pond 2
Groundwater observations were made at the beginning and completion of the eight borings drilled in 2008. Groundwater elevations were noted to generally decrease at borings located closer to Dumps Creek.
7.1.4 Factors of Safety and Base Stresses
Ash Pond 1
Three critical sections were used in the slope stability analysis completed for Ash Pond 1. Seepage conditions at the pond were considered in determining phreatic water surfaces and hydraulic gradients along each section. Each section was analyzed considering steady state seepage using effective shear strength parameters.
Different failure modes were considered for each section under static loading. Analysis of slope stability under seismic conditions considered both drained and undrained shear strength for each section. A summary of the calculated safety factors is included in Table 7.1.4.

Clinch River Plant 7-2 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL Ash Pond 2
As discussed in Section 7.1.1, safety factors from the slope stability analysis completed by BBC&M Engineering cannot be used for the purpose of this report based on design parameters used and assumptions concerning saturated ash levels. Specifically, the BBC&M study fails to analyze margins of safety under total saturation of the ash pond materials.
7.1.5 Liquefaction Potential
Ash Pond 1
Appendix A, Document 5 states that a liquefaction potential analysis was not performed for Ash Pond 1 but that based on other studies performed for similar facilities, including Ash Pond 2, that Ash Pond 1 is believed to have no potential for liquefaction under probable earthquakes that may occur in the region because the magnitude associated with them are not strong enough to impose cyclic stress ratios high enough to cause liquefaction.
Ash Pond 2
Appendix A, Document 6 states that a liquefaction potential analysis was performed for Ash Pond 2 assuming saturated fly ash conditions under long term conditions after closure of the facility. Under these conditions, the analysis concluded that liquefaction would not occur during the applied earthquake load, which was based on a synthetic seismograph record for the location of Ash Pond 2.
7.1.6 Critical Geological Conditions
Clinch River Power Plant is located on Lower Paleozoic sedimentary rock and near the vicinity of a thrust fault.
The Owner’s stability analysis referenced a seismic force of 0.16 g at the Clinch River Power Plant, which matches well with the 2008 USGS Seismic-Hazard Maps for Central/Eastern United States, considering peak ground acceleration with a 2-percent probability of exceedance in 50-years (See Appendix A, Document 1, Exhibit 5).
Clinch River Plant 7-3 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL Bedrock was encountered during bore drilling at Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2. Based on descriptions obtained from the samples, bedrock was classified as very-soft to soft gray shale and hard gray limestone, exhibiting massive bedding with many diagonal fractures. The top of rock was determined to be relatively flat.
7.2 ADEQUACY OF SUPPORTING TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
The supporting technical documentation submitted to support the structural stability of Ash Pond 1 appears to be adequate.
The supporting technical documentation submitted to support the structural stability of Ash Pond 2 is not adequate. A structural stability loading that assumes full saturation of all ash in Ash Pond 2 should be evaluated in addition to the condition that was analyzed (i.e., assumed saturation of the ash up to the existing groundwater table).
7.3 ASSESSMENT OF STRUCTURAL STABILITY
Ash Pond 1
The overall structural stability of the perimeter dike for Ash Pond 1 appears to be FAIR, based on a visual site assessment and review of documentation provided. The fair rating reflects continuing concerns of seepage from the pond dikes.
Signs of significant seepage have been recorded as far back as 1975. In 1980, seepage and a wet area were observed along a 150 ft stretch of the perimeter dike adjacent to the cell, Pond 1B, about 22 ft from the toe of the dike (Appendix A, Document 5). Conditions in this location did not notably change after the construction of the cutoff wall along the embankment in 1990. A boil at the toe of the perimeter dike adjacent to the cell, Pond 1A, just above the reclaim pond was also noted to remain after construction of the cutoff wall. Recent inspections in 2008 and 2009 indicate continual wet spots and seeps at different locations along the perimeter dike adjacent to the cell, Pond 1A (Appendix A, Documents 8-10). Based on the one-day site assessment it was evident that seepage is heavily monitored and controlled by the Owner. Close monitoring of seepage at this facility is strongly encouraged as it is necessary in identifying any drastic change in seepage patterns that could potentially affect the structural stability of the perimeter dike.
Clinch River Plant 7-4 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL Ash Pond 2
Based on a visual site assessment and review of documentation provided, the overall structural stability of the perimeter dikes for Ash Pond 2 appears to be POOR. The rating reflects the inappropriate assumptions regarding groundwater elevations in the slope stability analysis and the previous dike failure. It is noted that there was no standing water in this inactive pond. No documented signs of significant erosion damage, cracks, sloughs or releases of materials could be found. The facility was retired in 1998; however, it is encouraged that more frequent inspections and maintenance of the facility continue in accordance VA DCR, Division of Dam Safety regulations and requirements.
The Appendix A - Document 17 draft letter from Virginia DCR reflects the same concerns about the inadequacy of the structural stability analysis of Ash Pond 2.
Clinch River Plant 7-5 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 8.0 ADEQUACY OF MAINTENANCE AND METHODS OF OPERATION
8.1 OPERATING PROCEDURES
Operating procedures are described in Section 4.2.3.
8.2 MAINTENANCE OF THE DAM AND PROJECT FACILITIES
In 1983, the Owner adopted a Dam and Dike Inspection and Maintenance Program (DIMP), where all earthen dams and dikes used for ash storage or disposal, waste water ponds, and large cooling water storage facilities under the Owner’s management are routinely inspected, documented, and monitored. Under this program, there are four separate levels of inspection. First is to routinely make inspections by plant personnel to monitor visible changes; second is to make formal ‘checklist type’ inspections completed by plant personnel on a quarterly basis; third is to routinely schedule engineering inspections supervised by a professional engineer according to the risk classification of the dam; and, fourth are non routine inspections completed after heavy rains, seismic activity or other major events. The inspection and maintenance program continues today for Ash Pond 1. Although Ash Pond 2 became inactive in 1998, inspection and maintenance program for the pond are still in effect, however, a written record of procedures for Ash Pond 2 is not kept.
8.3 ASSESSMENT OF MAINTENANCE AND METHODS OF OPERATIONS
8.3.1 Adequacy of Operating Procedures
Operating procedures reviewed appear adequate for Ash Pond 1. This is also true for Ash Pond 2 before it became inactive in 1998.
8.3.2 Adequacy of Maintenance
Maintenance procedures reviewed appear adequate for Ash Pond 1. Though currently inactive, further consideration to maintaining vegetation and tree growth on Ash Pond 2’s upstream and downstream slopes should be addressed until the facility is formally closed through VA DCR, Division of Dam Safety and Floodplain Management, and VA DEQ.
Clinch River Plant 8-1 American Electric Power Coal Combustion Residue Impoundment Carbo, VA Dam Assessment Report FINAL 9.0 ADEQUACY OF SURVEILLANCE AND MONITORING PROGRAM
9.1 SURVEILLANCE PROCEDURES
Appendix A, Documents 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 show sample inspections reports and summaries submitted by the Owner in accordance with their adopted Dam and Dike Inspection and Maintenance Program as described under Section 8.2.
9.2 INSTRUMENTATION MONITORING
Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 are both instrumented. Ash Pond 1 has twenty working piezometers and staff gage present in each cell (Pond 1A and Pond 1B). Ash Pond 2 has approximately fourteen piezometers; however, a continuous record of readings has not been kept at Ash Pond 2 since it became inactive in 1998. Documentation provided by the Owner included reading summaries for Ash Pond 1 piezometers. Data collected from Ash Pond 1 and Ash Pond 2 piezometers was used to monitor phreatic surfaces and prepare stability analysis reports.
9.3 ASSESSMENT OF SURVEILLANCE AND MONITORING PROGRAM
9.3.1 Adequacy of Inspection Program
Based on the data reviewed by Dewberry, including the observations during the site visit, the inspection program appears to be adequate, though inspections should resume for Pond 2 until the facility is formally closed through VA DCR, Division of Dam Safety and VA DEQ.
9.3.2 Adequacy of Instrumentation Monitoring Program
Based on the data reviewed by Dewberry, including the observations during the site visit, the monitoring program appears to be adequate.

4a Operation of control gates and lways The discharge structure for this pond consists of variable elevation vertical drainage shaft connected to 36inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe The overflow elevation of the lway may be changed by inserting or removing steel plates Flow is controlled by pneumatic piston activated slide gate which responds to water level sensors at the
recirculation pond Freeboard is sufficient to store the Probable Maximum Flood
4b Operation of Reservoir Drain There is no reservoir drain of this facility because such drain would either become clogged with bottom ash or
would discharge it from the pond The pond can be drained by
pumping if desired
Sa Embankment The upstream and downstream slopes are visually inspected by plant personnel several times each week Items
checked for include signs of instability seepage rodent burrows erosion features and vegetative cover Grass brush and tree
cutting is done as needed Rodent burrows and erosion gullies are filled in when they are found
Principal lway The principal lway forthis upground reservoir consists of variable elevation sidehill overflow
structure connected to 30inch diameter discharge pipe It is
inspected visually by plant personnel several times each week and would be repaired promptly by plant personnel or contract
forces if necessary
Emergency lway Not applicable see 4a above
Low Level Outlet Not Applicable
Reservoir Area Since this is an upground reservoir the reservoir
area is checked when the upstream slopes are inspected
Downstream Channel The ponds 36inch diameter discharge pipe terminates at concrete sump box where the discharge waters are collected and pumped to recirculation pond

History This message has been forwarded
Mr Smith
Visited the AEP site in Carbo yestet day with Rex Peppler and Monty Guy couple of quick observations
It does not look like the data provided on the Inventory Report was up to date on the
Clinch River Flyash Dam for volume of normal pool and maximum pool for normal
surface area etc Looks like the numbers provided are 15 years or more out of date
When convenient please revise the numbers ie normal pool acre feet and send me
corrected copy for the file
It appears that there is no dam here at all made for the impounding of water just plateau
with few berms here and there By the vegetation it appears that there is not even
ponding during heavy rainfall events As as could tell this area has not been used
for many years You might consider having your engineer review this to determine if you
have the volume needed at least 15 acre feet for dams over high to justif keeping
this as regulated dam lf you determine that it is no long of size to be regulated
please forward letter from your Proffessional Engineer indicating the reasons and we
will close out this dam as regulated dam
If is still dam and is still continue to be regulated all brush on the dams and within
25 of the dams must be removed and maintained This dam does not appear to be
hazard class other than Class Ill
The same information needs to be updated on the Inventory Report for Dam
Dam looks like it has been devided with permanent dike road through the former
dam volume The the dike road is at the same elevation as the top of the dam
Effectively the area to the South West of the dike road has separate volume flom the
area to the North East With some measurements think it is possible for your engineer
to show that neither of these volumes exceed 15 acre feet of water ash to be removed
If Dam does turn out to still be tegulatable then you will need to have your engineer
review the hazard class with respect to the roadway just below the dam Essentially if
the dam did fall would it wash over the toad If so it is likely that this is Class
hazard dam rather than class
lfDam does turn out to still be latab then all trees and brush within of the dam embankment toe top ete must be removed Mr Peppler indicated that he would
be taking care of removing the trees
Ihere is no rush on the above items but they should be addressed in the next months left both of these dams on the list for Regular Certificates

1 SUMMARY
Pond 1 An assessment of the stability of the main dams that form the bottom ash disposal areas at the Clinch River Power Station in this In 2009 a is presented report geotechnical
conditions investigations was conducted by MACTEC in behalf of AEP to investigate subsurface of the dike and its foundation This study included drilling of 12 borings to identify soil strata perform standard proctor test and extrude split spoon and Shelby tube samples for laboratory testing The laboratory testing program included eight 3point triaxial compression consolidated undrained four 2point triaxial compression twelve hydraulic conductivity three consolidation twenty gradation twenty Atterburg limits and 25 moisture content tests
Three idealized sections were developed for the numerical analysis to represent the existing condition of the main dike that forms the IA and lB ponds Seepage through each dike section was analyzed to numerically determine phreatic water surfaces and the maximum hydraulic gradients across each section Hydraulic properties of the material were evaluated through field
recovered from several explorations and laboratory testing of undisturbed samples boreholes as well as back analyses of the recorded water levels in the piezometer that exists around the facility Stability analyses were performed for downstream slopes of each section under static and earthquake quasistatic conditions with steadystate seepage The subsurface earthen zones of each dike construction were determined based on available design drawings and subsurface investigations Material properties used in the stability analyses were selected based on the findings of geotechnical investigations Nvalue and index properties as well as laboratory
found be under static conditions testing The calculated factors of safety were to 15 or higher and 12 or higher under seismic conditions The calculated hydraulic gradients at the toe of the three sections determined to be within As the believed to were acceptable range such facility is be in safe and stable condition

2 INTRODUCTION
The Clinch River Plant located in Russell off of 664 and the town is county Virginia Route near
of Carbo The plant has three units with the total generation capacity of 705 MW Units 1 and 2
started operation in 1958 and unit three in 1961
The ash disposal facilities at the plans consist of a bottom ash pond and a fly ash landfill
Bottom ash material in the three units of the sluiced into the bottom ash produced plant is pond
near and to the East of the While most of the ash the
facility plant fly produced by plant is
in the some ash sluiced into the bottom ash The placed dry landfill occasionally fly is pond pond facilities at the Clinch River plant constructed between 1955 and 1956 consist of two
separate ponds named Pond 1 and Pond 2 Pond 2 was dewatered in 1998 and has been out of
service since thus has not been included in this Ash IA and lB located then it study ponds are
at the intersection of Dump Creek and the Clinch River They are separated by a splitter dike as
shown in the facility layout plan Appendix 1 The main dike that forms ponds I A and 1 B has been raised several between and The current crest elevation main dike
times 1955 1971 of the is
approximately 1570 ft
The original 1955 dike was made of relatively impervious silty clay soil with a mixture of shale
and elevation 1540 ash and ash sandstone fragments to a crest of ft A mixture of fly bottom material was used in the first raising to a crest elevation of 1550 ft Shale rock fill was used in
subsequence raisings to the current crest elevation 1570 The second and third dikes first and
second raises were constructed above and behind the original dike following the upstream
construction method The last raising was constructed on the downstream side of the previous

basis and the excavated ash hauled to a landfill near the regular is plant
Ponds 1A and 1B had a history of seepage and boils at the toe area and on the downstream face since before 1978 To control these seeps a toe drain consisting of 10 in diameter perforated
in installed the toe in the In the late 80s pipe buried a gravel blanket was along 1980s a new

for the main performed in 1990 1 by AEP geotechnical engineering revealed low safety factors dike recommended that cutoff wall be installed at the crest and be extended to 116 It was a
soil As in 1991 65 bentonite cutoff wall was installed the foundation such a ft deep slurry
into the abutments The cutoff wall was extended into the along the crest of the dike and 2 original 1955 dike that possesses a low permeability In 2009 an inverted filter with a riprap revetment was placed on the lower half of the downstream slope to control seepage and provide protection against piping
3 PREVIOUS STUDY AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
AEP Geotechnical Engineering conducted a stability analysis in 1990 before the construction of
2 This the cutoff wall to study the condition of the slopes of Pond 1 and Pond 1 study included drilling of 7 exploratory borings on the main dike some of which were continued into the bedrock to explore the conditions of the foundation soil Shelby tube samples were obtained from the soil layers and direct shear tests as well as triaxial compression tests were conducted to evaluate shear strength of the material Phreatic water surface was estimated based on the available data from the piezometers and the observed seepage on the downstream slope at
factors elevation of 1533 ft A set of stability analyses were performed to calculate safety
of and against slope instability for the dikes and minimum factors of safety 117 116 were calculated at the time for Pond IA and Pond IB respectively

The 1990 report recommended that a cutoff wall be installed along the crest of Pond IA and
Pond lB to lower the water levels and the of the dikes was
phreatic improve stability It
predicted that a cutoff wall would increase the safety factors to at least 145 by dissipating the
phreatic level A cementbentonitefly ash cutoff wall 65 feet deep was installed throughout
the crest in the winter of 1991 Readings from the piezometer A7R located on the downstream
of the wall Appendix 2 indicate that the maximum recorded water level dropped by about 8ft
after the installation of the while wall the water levels recorded at piezometer A6 located on the upstream side of the wall increased by about 10 feet These readings confirm that the cutoff wall has been performing as intended to decrease the phreatic level on the downstream side of the wall Nonetheless subsequent site inspections revealed that the seepage has been steady at the elevation of 1533 the ft on downstream slope of Pond 1B Furthermore water level in piezometer A7 has consistently been recorded at about elevation of 1533 the same level at
ft which observed on the of Pond 1B seepage is slope
The detailed construction report of the cutoff wall by WoodwardClyde Consultant 2 states that on the basis of visual inspection seepage quantities decreased after the wall was placed
One boil area at the downstream toe near the reclaim pond was reported to be continued after the construction This area was covered with a riprap over fabric blanket to minimize piping
and to have potential it appears remained stable since then
In 2009 a geotechnical investigation was conducted by MACTEC In this study 12 borings were drilled on the crest and toe area of the dike at three sections to explore subsurface conditions and extrude and tube for location split spoon Shelby samples laboratory testing A boring plan is provided in the Geotechnical Data Report Appendix 2 Eight new piezometers namely P0901SP0901D P0902 P0904 P0906 P09085 P0908D and P0909 were installed in the boreholes to complement the exiting piezometers The new piezometers were installed in the crest and the toe area of the dikes to monitor water levels in the embankment the foundation
and the bedrock Details of the subsurface and soil investigation laboratory testing program are included in Appendix 2

Locations of the three sections selected for this study are presented in Appendix 1 The geometry
in The earthen of each section was based on the 2006 Photography Map presented Appendix 1 zones of the dike at the selected section were based on AEPs drawing 131058531074 and the
2009 boring logs Appendix 2 Figures 1 through 3 present the idealized section developed for the seepage and stability analyses Shear strength parameters friction angle and cohesion and hydraulic conductivity for each zone were primarily determined through field and laboratory
match the testing Appendix 2 Hydraulic conductivities of the material were adjusted to calculated phreatic levels with the measured piezometric levels before and after the installation of the slurry wall Review of historical piezometric data Appendix 3 shows that the water levels in the piezometers generally exhibit minor fluctuations that are the result of changes in the pool level seasonal variations in the ground water regime and measurement errors Hydraulic conductivities were backcalculated by conservatively using the maximum recorded water levels in each piezometer Tables I through 3 present material properties for the three sections respectively

5 SEEPAGE ANALYSIS
Several seepage analyses were performed Using GeoStudio SeepW program to study the
seepage behavior of the dikes and obtain the hydraulic gradient and pore pressure distributions
across each dike sections All the analyses were performed under twodimensional transient
conditions to establish the phreatic water surface and velocity field The model inputs for a
transient analysis include volumetric moisture content versus soil suction and hydraulic
conductivity versus soil suction curves SeepW has several builtin functions to estimate such
functions based on soil type or grain size distribution saturated hydraulic conductivity and
saturated volumetric moisture content soil porosity For more detail on the inbuilt functions
and the estimation methods consult the users manual of SeepW 3 The hydraulic conductivity
of the cutoff wall was determined in laboratory as indicated in the WoodwardClyde report
levels used in the taken to be 1565 and 1558 for Pond IA Operational pool analyses were ft ft
and Pond I B respectively
Each in analysis was performed two stages In stage one the pool levels were raised from the
the in bottom of each pond to the operational pool levels without cutoff wall and stage 2 the
cutoff wall was activated by changing the material type of the elements that defined the wall
Figure 4 presents the computed total head distribution across Section A together with the seepage
flow rates per unit length of the dike before the installation of the cutoff wall The predicted phreatic surface can be seen to be in a reasonable agreement with the historical records of piezometer A2 and A3 To achieve such agreement the hydraulic conductivity of the outer
shell was adjusted to 005 fthr Depicted in Figure 5 are plots of historical readings of all the piezometers that are at or near Section A including the piezometers installed in 2009 More
information on the locations and screening depths of the piezometers has been included
3 The model at the toe that confirmed of and Appendix predicts seepage is by history seepage boils at this area of the dike In general the model predictions are in reasonable agreement with the field observations and piezometric readings indicating that the values of hydraulic
conductivities and the boundary conditions used in the analysis were well selected

6 STABILITY ANALYSIS
The current stability analyses were performed using the GeoSlope software developed by GeoSlopeInternational This program can utilize various limit equilibrium solution methods to factors In these methods the failure divided compute safety against slope instability wedge is up into several slices and each slice assumed to be under limit condition In order to
is equilibrium
utilize make the whole assembly of slices a statistically determined structure different theories a different simplifying assumption to estimate the induced forces on the sides of each slice In this study the limit equilibrium theory of MorgensternPrice was used that can satisfy the equilibrium equations of both forces and moments
The facility has been in its current operational condition for several years Therefore the analyses
the for condition effective for static stability of slopes were perfonmed steady state seepage using shear strength parameters Pore water pressure distributions calculated in the seepage analyses were imported into the model and used to calculate effective stresses along the failure surface
In all the stability analyses the minimum depth for the failure surface was set to be 10 ft Any failure surface less than 10 feet considered to be a surface that can be
deep is sloughing prevented by the existing riprap revetment or be easily repaired The inverted filter system was
the lower not directly built into the model instead a vertical surcharge load was applied to portion of the downstream slope to simulate its effect Safety factors were calculated for the downstream slope of each section A uniaxial compressive strength of 1200 lbft2 was used for the cutoff wall Upstream slopes of the sections are not susceptible to sliding because both the ponds are filled with sluiced ash all the way up to the maximum normal operating elevations
Ash excavation in Pond lB with not to excavate the operation is performed care as areas near
dikes a berm maintained the of the dikes perimeter Thus is always by upstream slope
Three different failure modes were considered for each section under static loading A deep
failure starting at the crest and penetrating into the foundation soil a shallow failure surface that enters and exits on the downstream face and a block failure through the ash layer on the slope of the original dike Sections A and B only A summary of the computed safety factors for the three sections in Table 4 determined that for Section the critical failure is presented It was A mode was failure of the outer shell with a factor of safety of 15 For Section B and Section C

Stability assessment Clinch River Power Station 1262010
the critical mode was determined to be deep failure with computed safety factors of 17 and 16 respectively Block failure mode was not considered for Section C because the geometry of the embankment and the material shear strengths are similar to those of Section B Thus the factor of associated with block failure mode to be the that of Section that safety is expected same as B

10 INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
This report presents the findings of our subsurface exploration and laboratory testing recently performed for the existing Ash Dike at the American Electric Power AEP Clinch River Plant in Carbo Virginia
We were selected by Mr Timothy A Randolph on behalf of American Electric Power AEP to perform a subsurface exploration at the existing Ash Dike at the AEP Clinch River Plant
The objectives of our subsurface exploration was to gather information including field test data and
test the site and subsurface conditions that could be used AEP their of laboratory data about by in analysis the existing Ash Dike at the Clinch River Plant An assessment of site environmental conditions or an
assessment for the presence or absence of pollutants in the soil bedrock surface water or ground water
site this of the was beyond the proposed objectives of our exploration Therefore any statements in report or attachments regarding color odor or unusual items or conditions are for information purposes only

20 SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION SUMMARY
Subsurface conditions were explored with twelve widely spaced test borings drilled at predetermined locations at the site accordance with the The in general procedures presented in Appendix A boring locations and depths were determined according to information provided by Mr Gary Zych of AEP Our
actual field geotechnical engineer established the boring locations in the by taping distances and estimating angles relative to onsite landmarks Therefore the boring locations shown on the Boring
Location Plan Figure 2 should be considered approximate
Subsurface conditions encountered at the boring locations are shown on the Test Boring Records in
Appendix B These Test Boring Records represent our interpretation of the subsurface conditions based on the field logs and visual examination of the field samples by one of our engineers The lines
the Records the designating the interfaces between various strata on Test Boring represent approximate interface locations
The refusal materials in eight of the borings were explored using NQ rock coring procedures The
Recovery Ratio and Rock Quality Designation RQD of the recovered rock core samples were estimated
in Ratio defined the ratio the laboratory during visual classification The Recovery is as percentage
drilled defined between the length of core recovered and the length of core on a given core run RQD is
as the percentage ratio between the sum of lengths of moderately hard or better core recovered that are at
least 4 inches in length to the length of core drilled on a given core run Recovery Ratios and RQD values
0 are shown on the Test Boring Records in Appendix B The recovery ratios ranged from to 98 percent
and the RQD values ranged from 0 to 92 percent

FIELD EXPLORATORY PROCEDURES
Soil Test Boring
All and were conducted accordance with ASTM D 1586 boring sampling operations in general
advanced continuous steel The borings were by mechanically turning hollowstein auger flights
into the ground At regular intervals soil samples were obtained with a standard 225inch ID
2inch OD splittube sampler The sampler was first seated 6 inches to penetrate any loose
cuttings and then driven an additional foot with blows of a 140pound hammer falling 30 inches
The number of hammer blows required to drive the sampler the final foot of penetration was
test recorded and is designated the standard penetration SPT resistance Proper evaluation of
the penetration resistance provides an index to the soils strength density and ability to support
foundations
of the soil obtained from the sealed Representative portions samples splittube sampler were in
glass jars and transported to our laboratory where they were examined by our engineer to verify
the drillers field classifications Test Boring Records are attached graphically showing the soil
descriptions and penetration resistances
Undisturbed Sampling
For quantitative testing relatively undisturbed samples are obtained by pushing sections of thinwalled
steel into soil at the or brass tubing Shelby tube the desired sampling levels This procedure is
described ASTM D 1587 Each tube removed from the by Specification is carefully ground sealed
and transported to the laboratory for specialized testing Locations and depths of undisturbed samples
are shown on the Test Boring Records
Rock Coring
Prior to set the hole drilled the overburden soils if to the
coring casing is in through necessary keep
bole fiom caving Refusal materials are then cored according to ASTM D 2113 using a
bit fastened to the end of doubletube barrel This device rotated at diamondstuddeda hollow core is high
speeds and the cuttings are brought to the surface by circulating water Core samples of the material

LABORATORY TEST PROCEDURES
Soil Classification
Soil classifications provide a general guide to the engineering properties of various soil types and enable the
engineer to apply past experience to current situations Samples obtained during drilling operations are examined in our laboratory and visually classified by an engineer The soils are classified according to consistency based on number of blows from standard penetration tests color and texture These classification descriptions are included on our Test Boring Records
The classification discussed above A detailed soil classification two system is primarily qualitative requires laboratory tests grain size tests and plasticity tests Using these test results the soil can be classified according to the AASHTO or Unified Classification Systems ASTM D2487 Each of these classification
systems and the inplace physical soil properties provide an index for estimating the soils behavior The soil classification and determined this physical properties are presented in report
Moisture Content
The moisture in of soil the as of the weight of the content a given mass is ratio expressed a percentage
to the of the solid This test conducted accordance with ASTM D 2216 water weight particles was in
Grain Size Distribution
Grain Size Tests to aid the soil classification and the size distribution are performed in determining grain
The soil samples are prepared for testing according to ASTM D 421 dry preparation or ASTM D 2217 wet
the size distribution of soils than number 200 sieve preparation If only grain coarser a 0074mm opening
the size distribution determined the number 200 sieve after is desired grain is by washing sample over a and
the standard set of nested sieves the size distribution of the soils drying passing samples through a If grain finer than the number 200 sieve also the size distribution of the soils coarser than the number
is desired grain
10 sieve determined the a set of nested sieves Materials the number 10 is by passing sample through passing sieve are with a and and the size distribution calculated dispersed dispersing agent suspended in water grain ASP Dike Drilling Clinch River Site January 262010 MACTECProject 3050090131
rate the tests with ASTM D from the measured settlement of particles These are conducted in accordance
422
Atterberg Limits
the characteristics of the Portions of the samples are taken for Atterberg limits testing to determine plasticity
the of moisture which the soil deforms as a plastic soil The plasticity index PI is range content over
limit and the limit The limit the moisture bracketed the plastic liquid is
is material It by liquid LL PL
at which the soil becomes wet to flow as a viscous fluid The plastic limit the content sufficiently heavy is
moisture content at which the soil sufficiently plastic to be rolled into tiny threads The
lowest is manually
limit and limit are determined accordance with ASTM D4318 liquid plastic in
Consolidation Tests
Onedimensional consolidation tests are conducted to determine the compression characteristics of soils
the of under applied vertical stresses Test results may provide information including magnitude settlement
the timerate effects and the past stress history of the soil
Tests are conducted accordance with ASTM D 2435 A soil 25 inches in diameter and in general sample
the soil 10 inch thick fitted into a stainless steel with stones above and below The sample
is ring porous
then in device and to a series of vertical stresses under conditions is placed a loading subjected increasing
of no lateral strain Timedeformation readings are recorded for each applied stress and the resultant
strain ratio calculated or void is
of the The Typically test results include a plot of void ratio or percent strain versus the log applied stress
index the coefficient of consolidation the virgin compression index Ce the rebound or swelling C Cv
obtained constrained modulus M=lm and the preconsolidation stress P are all important parameters
from this test
Triaxial Shear Tests
Triaxial shear tests are used to measure the stressstrain characteristics and strength of soils under various
conditions the field Tests be semidrained or to simulate loading expected in may undrained fullydrained
field Triaxial tests are with ASTM D 4767 behavior shear performed in accordance 2010 AEP Dike Drilling Clinch a River Site Januwy 26

conducted either undisturbed Triaxial shear tests are on relatively samples or on remoldedcompacted
14 and 60 inches and minimum specimens of soil Diameters of specimens range between a lengthdiameter ratio 2 Either stresscontrolled straincontrolled tests are Loads measured of is standard or performed are using proving rings or electronic load cells deformations are monitored using electronic LVDTs or dial
and water measured with transducers are indicators pore pressure is Nonnally samples saturated
and sheared to failure under extension also consolidated compression loading although loading is possible
Various consolidation conditions may be implemented in the triaxial apparatus Stress and deformation occur in under triaxial conditions The three of triaxial tests three dimensions most common types compression in routine use include

been retained by AEP to provide design services for the final closure of the inactive Ash Pond No 2 Pond 2 at the AEP Clinch River Power Plant near Russell Services included a surface and Carbo Virginia in County subsurface site investigation engineering and design The permit application itself will be prepared by AEP The design of the final cover generally follows the intent of the and for Virginia Department of Environmental Quality VADEQ regulations guidelines Industrial Waste Disposal Facilities This report addresses the Geotechnical Analysis portion of the design Pond 2 consists of a three tiered dike system constructed to impound coal combustion with byproducts both bottom and fly ash To be consistent previous reports performed by AEP the dikes were termed Lower Level Middle Level and Upper Level dikes Dikes although they are also known as 1 2 and 3 respectively Based on information provided by AEP BBCM understands operations at Pond No 2 which began around discontinued 1997 and the has been inactive since that time 1954 were in pond During active sluiced into operations fly ash and bottom ash were the pond areas Over the years the capacity of Pond 2 was increased through vertical expansions consisting of first increasing the height of the lower dike then subsequently constructing the middle and upper dikes At this time the upper portion of the impoundment remains open to the environment A cover system will provide final closure of the facility The proposed pond closure design will utilize dry coal ash placed as structural fill to achieve a 5 grade sloping away from the hillside to allow surface water to drain from As much 30 feet of fill will be areas to achieve the the 20 acre site as required in some final grade The completed pond will then be capped with a flexible membrane liner geocomposite drainage layer and cover soil Purpose of This Work The purpose of this work was to assess the impact of the proposed final cover system on the stability of the existing ash pond as well as to generally assess the long term that this will be included with the of the overall It understood stability system is report this permit application prepared by AEP The geotechnical analyses summarized in seismic report consist of an evaluation of potential for the existing ash to liquefy under a under the of the cover event the stability of the overall pond weight new system under both normal and seismic conditions and to estimate the settlement of the existing ash and foundation soils under the weight of the proposed cover system Each of these analyses are dependent upon the existing subsurface conditions To this end BBCM the the performed a limited subsurface investigation at facility to supplement existing extensive data Please note that only analyses dealing with the existing subsurface included this Other such and conditions have been in report analyses as hydrologic of the final itself have been documented a hydraulic and the surficial stability cover in separate design report Available Geotechnical Data AEP 1990 An extensive analysis of the stability of Ash Pond No 2 was performed by in this entitled of Clinch River Ash Pond Dikes dated January In report Stability Analysis Geotechnical Analysis Report Clinch River Power Plant Pond No 2 Closure Russell County Virginia 1 1990 the construction and operation of the facility was reviewed and the results of a subsurface investigation were summarized As part of this investigation five soil borings and piezometers were installed and a large number of consolidatedundrained triaxial shear tests and direct shear tests were performed As BBCM reviewed the AEP the AEP examined part of our work report In report various combinations of circular and block failure surfaces for the existing dike configuration as well as a progressive failure mode AEP also performed a sensitivity analyses by reducing the drained friction angle of the dikes by 2 degrees and found this had little effect on the failure surface and its factor of safety Overall AEP determined the stability of the clay dike system at Pond 2 was satisfactory and operations could continue without modification Additionally BBCM understands that no major problems have occurred at Pond 2 since the time of the report Some time after Ash Pond 2 was taken out of service portions of the upper dike Dike 3 which had not been filled to capacity were removed to prevent surface water ponding otherwise the existing the same as was at the time of the 1990 geometry is largely it report the Limit equilibrium slope stability analyses in 1990 report were generally performed along a single crosssection generated through the facility Such analyses provide a factor of safety as an output which represents the resisting forces soil strength divided forces A factor of of 10 that the state of by the driving safety implies slope is in a incipient failure AEPs lowest computed factor of safety was 13 for the middle dike CURRENT SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION As part of the design of the final closure of Pond 2 BBCM performed a limited subsurface investigation which was intended to supplement the available information The focus of this investigation was to confirm the condition of the lower and middle dikes to confirm the top of bedrock elevation across the site and to investigate the condition of the impounded ash which will become the foundation for the final cover The details of this described the sections system investigation are in following FIELD WORK the of 22 During period July through August 6 2008 AEP personnel performed eight 8 soil borings designated B1 through B8 that were extended to depths ranging from 236 to 818 feet below A Professional existing grades project geologist Certified in the state of Virginia from BBCM was onsite between July 22 and 23 to meet with AEP of the overall the the plant personnel perform a reconnaissance site position borings in field log Borings B3 and B4 and coordinate survey work The remaining borings were logged by AEP personnel Borings B3 and B4 were located on the crest of the lower and middle dikes respectively Borings B1 and B8 were located between the middle and upper dikes and Borings B2 B6 and B7 were located between the upper dike partially removed at this time and the hillside The boring locations as shown on the Plan of Borings and Plate 1 the were selected and field located BBCM presented as in Appendix A by of personnel The ground surface elevations the borings were initially estimated from recent topographic mapping provided by AEP for preliminary analyses and later Geotechnical Analysis Report Clinch River Power Plant Pond No 2 Closure Russell County Virginia 2 recorded site of all submitted the as during a survey Logs borings are in appendix Plates 4 through 19 All borings were performed with a truck mounted drill rig and were advanced between sampling attempts using 34inch ID hollowstem augers At regular intervals disturbed but representative samples were obtained by lowering a 2inch 0D the bottom of the hole and into the soil blows from a splitbarrelsampler to driving it by hammer freely falling 30 inches Standard Penetration Test ASTM D1586 Split 140pound of barrel samples were examined immediately after recovery and representative portions and retained for each sample were placed in air tight jars subsequent laboratory testing refusal B3 and a was made to Upon encountering auger in Borings B6 changeover rock coring techniques to verify the presence and condition of the bedrock At these locations bedrock core were obtained by using a NQ rock coring techniques with water the fluid Recovered rock cores were the field and as circulating catalogued in boxes and delivered to our for inspection preserved in compartmented laboratory accordance with ASTM D classification and testing The rock coring was performed in 2113 During drilling procedures personnel from BBCM or AEP performed the following specific duties ® examined all samples recovered from the borings cleaned soil of and samples cuttings preserved representative portions in airtight glass jars ® bedrock core preserved samples in boxes ® prepared a log of each boring soil ® made handpenetrometer measurements in samples exhibiting cohesion and provided liaison between the field personnel and the Project Manager so that the field could be modified the event that subsurface investigation in unexpected conditions were encountered At the completion of drilling all recovered samples were transported to the BBCM laboratory for further examination and testing LABORATORY TESTING the the were identified and on representative samples In laboratory samples visually moisture contents liquid and plastic limit determinations and grainsize analyses were performed Results of these index tests permit an evaluation of strength and compressibility characteristics of the soil by comparison with similar soils for which these characteristics have been previously determined Based upon the results of the laboratory visual identifications and testing program soil descriptions contained on the field and are submitted as logs were modified if necessary laboratorycorrected logs Plates 4 19 A Results of the tests are shown through in Appendix laboratory graphically the individual and a of test

system consisted of the verysoft to soft shale Both rock types exhibited massive bedding with many diagonal fractures Rock Quality Designation of RQD of the limestone ranged between 26 to 64 Groundwater observations were made as each boring was being advanced and measurements were made at the completion of drilling During drilling groundwater was encountered within the borings at depths of 115 to 244 feet below the existing grade with groundwater elevations generally decreasing as the borings approached Dumps Creek DESIGN CROSS SECTION FOR ANALYSES Geometry The three tiered dike created from vertical of Pond 2 system subsequent expansions is demonstrated the section AEP 1990 As on design developed by in previously noted however the upper dike was intentionally partially removed to prevent surface water ponding Thus the upper dike is no longer well defined Based on topographic data provided by AEP BBCM developed a cross section of the surface topography through the pond Since only the surficial topography has changed since AEPs analysis the subsurface stratigraphy and geometry of the dikes as shown on BBCMs design cross section were created based on AEPs design crosssection as well as information from Geotechnical Analysis Report Clinch River Power Plant Pond No 2 Closure Russell County Virginia 4 the new borings The ash pond site stratigraphy consists principally of the clay dike and the Beneath the system impounded fly ash fly ash a layer of bottom ash placed directly over the bedrock serves as a drainage layer although this layer was not well defined the The section in cross B with the borings design is presented in Appendix slope stability analysis Soil Layers Cover System The proposed cover system extends up from the crest of the middle dike at a 5 slope until the will soil it intersects hillside The cover consist of 24 inches of cover over a geocomposite drainage system and a 30MIL PVC geosynthetic liner The soil cover will consist mainly of existing onsite soilrock spoils processed to obtain a maximum 6 inch size particle Dry fly ash will be placed as structural fill to bring the existing ground surface up to the planned elevation before the cover system can be constructed Additional material information can be found the Cover and in System design package details of the cover system are shown on the design plans Coal Ash The existing impounded coal ash consists mainly of loose fly ash with zones of bottom ash and pond ash Deposits of ash range from 30 feet beneath the middle dike to 60 feet the approximately in area between the middle dike and the hillside As part of the 1990 report AEP performed two direct shear tests on the impounded ash and into of delineated the ash two separate layers based the time placement The upper fly ash at Elevation which the bottom layer begins 1539 is elevation of the middle dike The direct shear tests performed on the fly ash samples yielded drained friction angles of 30 and 27 degrees for the lower and upper fly ash layers respectively Based on information available literature and Nuzzo and the fact in DiGioia 1972 that actual laboratory testing was performed on these samples BBCM believes that these values to are reasonable represent the longterm strength of the inplace fly ash ClayShale Dikes The dikes constructed of mixture of existing were a compacted clay shale and rock fill likely excavated from the hillside which used to contain the ash The dikes nearby is have historically performed well without any major stability or seepage problems The middle dike was constructed inside of the lower dike and founded on the ponded coal ash retained by the lower dike AEP assumed a drained friction angle of 32 degress with a cohesion value of 200 psf for their stability analyses the correlations between Utilizing index properties and fully softened shear strength included Stark et al estimated the shear of the dike material in 2005 BBCM strength based on liquid limit and clay size fraction values obtained from during laboratory testing The limit for obtained this material from 19 to while the liquid samples in ranged 29 average clay size fraction finer than 005 mm was 24 Adjusting for the impact of ball milling and using an effective normal stress between 50 and 100 kPa approximately to the effective stress equal range in the clay dikes the correlation suggests a fully softened friction angle between 30 and 33 degrees Therefore the assumed friction angle of 32 degrees appears reasonable Geotechnical Analysis Report Clinch River Power Plant Pond No 2 Closure Russell County Virginia 5 Bottom FiH Historical drawings detail a layer of bottom ash constructed beneath Pond 2 and directly over bedrock to serve as a AEPs this modeled drainage layer In stability report layer is with a thickness of 10 to 12 feet and described as the same material as the clay dikes and exhibiting the same strength characteristics Based on the new borings this layer was shown to be inconsistent thickness and extent Based in on a consolidatedundrainedtriaxial shear test AEP a friction of 285 a assigned angle degrees and cohesion of 200 psf to model the strength of this layer For BBCMs analyses the value of 285 degrees was maintained but the cohesion value was reduced to 0 psf the inconsistencies associated with this the recognizing defining layer in borings Bedrock Rock obtained B3 core samples in Borings and B8 show that the bedrock surface at the site consists of verysoft to soft shale beneath the dike system Borings B2 through B5 to hard limestone at the base of the hillside Boring B6 With the exception of these also indicate that the of bedrock Boring B6 borings top is relatively flat varying from El 14912 to 14967 across the site Based on the site topography BBCM believes that Pond 2 was constructed the old river of and that in valley Dumps Creeks Dumps Creek may have actually been rerouted as part of construction thus the reason for the flat bedrock surface The shear of these rocks function of the of strength is largely a presence joints and of particular importance slickenside surfaces However the factors of safety computed for both circular and translational failure surfaces were shown to be independent of the strength of the bedrock as all slip surface passed well above the bedrock Strength Parameters Shear strength parameters for the fly ash the clayshale dikes the bottom ash fill layer and the fill were the 1990 riprap developed in report These parameters were developed based on laboratory testing performed as part of the analyses With exception of the shear of strength the clay dikes BBCM used AEPs values to carry out the stability A of the values used are shown Table 1

groundwater level was equivalent with the of the fly ash the active AEPs this top in filling areas analysis incorporated elevated groundwater level as operations at Pond 2 were planned to continue for several years However since operations at the plant have become inactive the groundwater level has fallen to lower levels BBCM estimated groundwater levels within the existing ash impoundment based on the groundwater levels encountered during within drilling the new borings Existing piezometer wells at the site were checked but satisfactory data was not attainable as they have generally stopped functioning As shown the Cross the in Design Section groundwater levels encountered between B3 fall succession as the distanced further from the Borings through B6 in borings are hillside and the groundwater level approaches the normal pool elevation of Dumps Creek The level beneath the middle dike located 44 feet groundwater is approximately below the top of the dike and approximately 23 feet below the bottom of dike The surface shown Cross groundwater is on Design Section in Appendix B With the design of the final closure plans groundwater recharge from rainfall events will be significantly reduced with the only possible source of groundwater impact from the potential seepage emanating from the existing hillside For these reasons BBCM believes that the assumed surface the phreatic incorporated in following analyses is reasonable to represent long term conditions ANALYSES AND RESULTS Liquefaction Potential AEP evaluated the design seismic parameters using GeoSlopes QuakefW software as part of the final closure analysis The following paragraphs were submitted by AEP to summarize their findings A numerical model was developed to assess the potential of liquefaction of the saturated fly ash at the ash pond 2 for the long term conditions after the closure of the Clinch River Plant The conducted pond in analysis was using QuakelW 2007 program a component of GeoStudio 2007 built by GeoSlope International Ltd The model was prepared by BBCM using SlopelW program based on a review of available data and the field exploration program performed for this study one critical crosssection was developed showing the various material zones of Dynamic material properties saturated fly ash were based on cyclic traiaxial tests results Ohio performed at State University OSU Equivalent linear analysis was conducted with strain dependent modulus and damping relationships for other materials were estimated using published relationships Table 1

assess what impact the proposed cover system and associated fill would have on the computed factors of safety Limit equilibrium slope stability analyses were performed using the aforementioned design crosssection which was based on the original design crosssection developed by AEP Please note that this work focused on the potential for failure surfaces to develop through the existing dike system The veneer stability of the proposed cover of soil system which is independent borings was assessed separately The slope stability analyses were performed using the 2D limit equilibrium computer program Slide V 5035 developed by Rocscience Inc Both circular and translational block type deepseated failure surfaces were examined under static longterm and pseudostatic conditions for the final

considered a only in translational failure in combination with the middle dike The graphical computer output for these has been included with this analyses report in Appendix B Army Corps of Engineers ACOE specifications for earthen embankment dams require a minimum factor of safety of 15 with respect to shear failure for static conditions and 10 for conditions factors of pseudostatic loading

CONCLUSIONS BBCM performed slope stability analyses examined liquefaction potential and estimated the maximum foundation settlement of our cover for in support system design Pond No 2 at the Clinch

equivalent to height of newly placed ash fill above the middle dike since operations were active and ash was being sluiced in Recently performed borings however indicate the groundwater level has lowered since operations have become inactive The cross section shown this design in Appendix shows the levels groundwater as encountered during drilling Generally this lowered groundwater level

summary of the inspection and assessment of the condition of the facilities Mr Jimmie Saunders at the Clinch River Plant was the project facility contact The inspection was performed on November 24 2009 Weather conditions were partially cloudy Temperatures ranged from a low of 39°F to a high of 59°F with a mean temperature of 49°F There was no rainfall on 015 the day of inspection and 015 inches of rainfall on the day before inspection day There was inches of rainfall during the ten days prior to the inspection day At Clinch River Plant the Ash Pond Complex consists of Ash Pond 1A Ash Pond 113 and a earthen Reclaim Pond as shown in Figures 1 through 5 The two ash ponds are formed by embankments approximately 60ft high on the west south and east sides a splitter embankment in the center and natural high ground along the north side The embankments have interior slopes of of to approximately 3 Horizontal to 1 Vertical 3 H to 1V and exterior slopes approximately 2H IV The exterior dike on the south side has an underdrain and finger drain system installed downstream of the toe road to control and collect The Reclaim Pond an excavated seepage is pond In addition to the Ash Pond there Ash Pond 2 that located across the road from the Complex is is Ash Pond 2 has been outofservice since 1998 and there no free water in the Complex is pond Therefore no inspection was performed although the site was visited 2 SUMMARY OF VISUAL OBSERVATIONS 21 GENERAL describe the condition The summary of the visual observations uses terms to general appearance or of observed structure Their of these

reveal any issue that would raise an immediate the of these facilities Below of the concern on safety or stability is a summary that found to be in condition and need of components were poor in improvement HInlernalDam Dike InspectionsDIMP 2009Clinch River 2ReportClinch2009RPT2doc 7 of 10 1 The west and east groin ditches should be cleared of any vegetation In general dried vegetation shall be removed after each application of herbicide All the trees and woody vegetation that have grown on the slopes of the dikes should be removed 2 The tree on the west abutment that near the ditch should be removed is groin 3 All the broken or nonfunctional piezometers should be identified and abandoned properly Besides the above reconunended that the water levels in the items it is plant begins monitoring newly installed piezometers and wells The quarterly inspection sheet should be updated to include the new wells and piezometers 52 REGULAR MAINTENANCE ITEMS The recommendations of this section are considered to be regular maintenance items that should be performed on regular basis to assure that the satisfactory condition of the facilities will be of recommendations below maintained A facilityspecific summary is presented 521 RECLAIM POND 1 Cenospheres should be removed from the surface of the Reclaim Pond on regular basis 2 The erosion rills on the slopes of the Reclaim Pond should be repaired by excavating the disturbed areas and placing riprap over fabric The riprap protection will prevent reoccurrenceof the erosion rills should be 3 The areas with insufficient vegetative coverage seeded 4 Monitoring of the instrumentation should be continued on quarterly basis 522 POND 1A 1 The seepage area on the lower section of the south dike mentioned in the previous inspection reports remains the primary concern at this facility The plant shall continue monitoring the seepage flow from the pond for signs of piping or drastic changes in the flow rates or piezometric water levels The wet area below the access road along the toe should be inspected frequently for signs of piping 2 Erosion rills that form on the main dike or the splitter dike should be identified and repaired promptly HInternalDam Dike InspectionsDIMP 2009Clinch River 2ReportClinch2009RPT2doc 8 of 10 3 Any large rutting that develops on the crest of the main dike the splitter dike or any of the access roads should be repaired on a timely manner 4 recommended that the continues to mow the of the dike at least twice a It is plant slopes year The area of the west hillside that within 25 feet horizontal distance from the center of the is groin ditch should be properly seeded and mowed regularly 5 A staff gage should be installed in IA pond to facilitate water level readings 6 Protective railing should be installed around the overflow structure from 1 A to 1 B ponds unless this structure abandoned is properly 7 The section of the slope not covered by riprap should be thoroughly inspected by the plant personnel twice a year to identify animal burrows All the animal holes shall be mudpacked time to and animal burrows The second Generally a good inspect mudpack is early spring be autumn to the before the inspection can performed early It is a good practice mow slopes inspections 8 Operation of the seepage collection system and pumps must be maintained to ensure the structural integrity of the dikes This includes continuing the periodic program to replace the toe drain system as necessary to prevent build up of chemical precipitates within the stone and piping system The drainage pipe should be flushed or replaced periodically to prevent blockage due to accumulation of precipitates 523 POND 1B 1 Seepage areas on the lower section of the dike mentioned in previous inspection reports still remain the main concern Monitoring of the piezometers should be continued The plant should continue monitoring the seepage flow from the pond for signs of piping or drastic changes in the flow rates the south of 113 2 The increasing number of animal burrows on slope pond is becoming a concern recommended to install near the animal holes to control the of the It is traps population burrowing animals Animal burrows on the slopes of the dike should be identified through regular inspections and mudpacked Two inspections per year are recommended on early spring and early autumn after each mow 3 The erosion rills that form on the dike should be identified and repaired promptly the roads should be 4 Any large rutting that develops

Impoundments are inspected quarterly by the plant personnel, and annually through an outside consultant. 2. Operating pool elevations for Pond 1A and Pond 1B are 1565 and 1558, respectively. Twenty piezometers and a staff gage in both Pond 1A and Pond 1B exist at Ash Pond 1. Readings are monitored 6. in the plant’s Dam Inspection Checklist. 5. The lowest crest elevation for the Ash Pond 1 is 1570.0’. 16. & Pond 1A outfalls into Pond1B. Pond 1B outlets into a Reclaim Pond. Both pipes were completely submerged and 20. not visible for inspection. The Reclaim Pond discharge is piped back to the plant to an onsite water treatment 1 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency facility for continued use onsite. The side hill embankment of Ash Pond 1 has an elaborate seepage control system, consisting of perforated pipe toe drains that run the length of the embankment, which collects seepage at several areas along the embankment either directly from cross drains or from v-notch weirs that collect seepage discharge. All seepage discharge originating from cross drains and v-notch weirs were notably clear and free of fines or sediment. A rate of 21. discharge was not determined on the site visit; however, a completed quarterly inspection report, titled Dike Inspection Checklist, indicating flow rates for each v-notch weir has been requested. The north outside embankment groin was observed to be conveying some minor clear seepage flow. The south outside embankment groin was dry but was noted to have signs of erosion due to storm runoff. An animal burrow was observed along the southern most part of the embankment of Pond 1A. The burrow was * small in size and near the crest of the embankment. 2 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency Coal Combustion Waste (CCW) Impoundment Inspection Scott Clarke, P.E. and Lorainne Ramos Impoundment NPDES Permit N/A INSPECTOR Nieves, P.E., CFM Date February 17, 2011 Impoundment Name Ash Pond 1 (Ponds 1A /1B) Impoundment Company AEP, Appalachian Power EPA Region 3 State Agency Virginia Department of Conservation & Recreation, Division of Dam Safety and (Field Office) Address Floodplain Management; 8 Radford St., Suite 201 Christiansburg, VA 24073 Name of Impoundment Ash Pond 1 (Ponds 1A /1B) (Report each impoundment on a separate form under the same Impoundment NPDES Permit number) New Update Yes No Is impoundment currently under construction? Is water or ccw currently being pumped into the impoundment? IMPOUNDMENT FUNCTION: Settling pond for bottom ash disposal.

Virginia DCR, Division of Dam Safety and If So Which State Agency? Floodplain Management 3 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency HAZARD POTENTIAL (In the event the impoundment should fail, the following would occur): LESS THAN LOW HAZARD POTENTIAL: Failure or misoperation of the dam results in no probable loss of human life or economic or environmental losses. LOW HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner’s property. SIGNIFICANT HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or can impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be located in areas with population and significant infrastructure. HIGH HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or misoperation will probably cause loss of human life. DESCRIBE REASONING FOR HAZARD RATING CHOSEN: Ash Pond 1 is adjacent to State Routes 616 and 665 as well as the Norfolk and Western Railway. In addition, the facility is located immediately upstream of Clinch River and Dump’s Creek. The Clinch River Plant is located immediately south of the facility just across the Clinch River. A failure of this facility would impact State Route 616 and/or State Route 665 and potentially the existing railroad. While no probable loss of human life is expected, economic and environmental damage would be expected. 4 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency CONFIGURATION: Cross-Valley Side-Hill Diked Incised (form completion optional) Combination Incised/Diked Embankment Height (ft) 55 ft Embankment Material Silty clay soil, mix. of shale and sandstone fragments, fly ash and bottom ash.

If so, which method (e.g., piezometers, gw pumping,...)? Piezometers If So Please Describe : A soil-bentonite slurry wall was installed to depths of 60-65 feet along the center of the side hill embankment to help mitigate seepage occurring through the dike, particularly in high water conditions. Approximately 20 piezometers located both at the crest and near the toe of the embankment have been installed to monitor phreatic water table levels. The piezometers were placed on either side of the slurry wall; instrumentation placed on the inside of the slurry wall reaches elevations as high as water surface elevations and crest while those placed on the outside of the slurry wall go down to almost 5 feet from the toe of the embankment. 9 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency ADDITIONAL INSPECTION QUESTIONS Concerning the embankment foundation, was the embankment construction built over wet ash, slag, or other unsuitable materials?

Impoundments are inspected quarterly by the plant personal, and annually through an outside consultant. Ash Pond 2 is currently inactive and on the day of the assessment had no pooling. According to quarterly 2. inspections, titled Dike Inspection Checklist, a section of the upper level dike was removed in 1998 inhibiting the ability for the impoundment to pool water; no normal pool elevations were available for this impoundment. The lowest dam crest elevation would be equivalent to the upper level dike of the facility prior to it becoming 5. inactive. The upper level crest elevation was 1570.0’. 9. Along the remaining sections of the upper dike of Bottom Ash Pond 2 there is significant tree growth; largest tree size ranged from 12”- 18” diameter. Additionally, between the toe of the embankment and Dump’s Creek there is 1 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency significant tree growth; largest tree size ranged from 18”- 24” diameter. Virginia DCR requires a 25 ft clear zone (i.e. no trees) beyond the toe of all impounding structures. Fissures/cracks were observed in an area near the outflow spillway structure on the surface of the impoundment 13. where it was evident that local storm runoff had been draining to. Ash Pond 2 is currently inactive and on the day of the assessment had no significant pooling. In addition, the inlet of the overflow structure is located at an elevation significantly higher than the current finished grade inside the 20. remaining sections of the upper dike. Discharge through the overflow structure and outfall pipes is not possible at this time. The entire side-hill embankment of the Ash Pond 2 has a seepage control system, consisting of perforated pipe toe drains that run the length of the embankment, which collects seepage along the crest of the lower level dike. 21. Seepage discharge originating from the toe drain was not accessible/visible during the site visit and although a rate of discharge for ongoing seepage was not determined, the plant personal did indicate that minimal seepage, possibly due to high ground water elevations, outfalls into Dump’s Creek under a general NPDES permit. 23. Ash Pond 2 has Dumps Creek running along the entire stretch of its embankment. An animal burrow was observed along the middle level dike of Ash Pond 2. The burrow was small in size and near * the crest of the embankment. 2 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency Coal Combustion Waste (CCW) Impoundment Inspection VA 0001015 / Scott Clarke, P.E. and Lorainne Ramos Impoundment NPDES Permit INSPECTOR Outfall 015 Nieves, P.E., CFM Date February 17, 2011 Impoundment Name Ash Pond 2 (Inactive) Impoundment Company AEP, Appalachian Power EPA Region 3 State Agency Virginia Department of Conservation & Recreation, Division of Dam Safety and (Field Office) Address Floodplain Management; 8 Radford St., Suite 201 Christiansburg, VA 24073 Name of Impoundment Ash Pond 2 (Inactive) (Report each impoundment on a separate form under the same Impoundment NPDES Permit number) New Update Yes No Is impoundment currently under construction?

LOW HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner’s property. SIGNIFICANT HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or misoperation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or can impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be located in areas with population and significant infrastructure. HIGH HAZARD POTENTIAL: Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or misoperation will probably cause loss of human life. DESCRIBE REASONING FOR HAZARD RATING CHOSEN: Ash Pond 2 is adjacent to State Routes 616 as well as the Norfolk and Western Railway. In addition, the facility is located immediately upstream of Dumps Creek and Clinch River. The Clinch River Plant is located immediately south of the facility just across the Clinch River. A failure of this facility would impact State Route 616 and/or potentially the existing railroad. While no probable loss of human life is expected, economic and environmental damage would be expected. 4 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency CONFIGURATION: Cross-Valley Side-Hill Diked Incised (form completion optional) Combination Incised/Diked Embankment Height (ft) 56 ft Embankment Material Shale fragments, silty clay, clayey silt and sand.

If So When? 1967 If So Please Describe : Minimal information regarding the failure of the Ash Pond 2 is said to have been recorded. According to AEP, plant records do not indicate the cause of failure or the extent of damages to the affected areas. No photographs were available of the failure and its aftermath; however, the failure is said to have occurred near the northern end of the embankment and may have been due to seepage. In addition to the location and possible cause of the failure, the impact on aquatic wildlife in Dump’s Creek and Clinch River was recalled to have been extensive. Any additional information that can be compiled has been requested from AEP. 7 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency Yes No Has there ever been significant seepages at this site? If So When? Minor, on-going If So Please Describe : The side-hill embankment of Ash Pond 2 has a seepage control system, consisting of perforated pipe toe drains that run the length of the embankment, which collects seepage along the crest of the lower level dike. Seepage discharge originating from the toe drain was not accessible/visible during the site visit and although a rate of discharge for ongoing seepage was not determined, the plant personal did indicate that minimal seepage, possibly due to high ground water elevations, is collected from the system and outfalls into Dump’s Creek under a general NPDES permit. 8 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency Yes No Has there ever been any measures undertaken to monitor/lower Phreatic water table levels based on past seepages or breaches at this site? If so, which method (e.g., piezometers, gw pumping,...)? Piezometers If So Please Describe : Approximately 14 piezometers are located both at the crest and near the toe of both the lower and middle level dikes of the Ash Pond 2 embankment. These piezometers were installed to monitor phreatic water table levels while the pond was active. A design summary for final closure indicates a 15-20 ft drop in the phreatic water levels for this impoundment in 2008. As previously noted, this impoundment is inactive and no record of instrumentation readings or monitoring is kept. 9 US Environmental Coal Combustion Dam Inspection Checklist Form Protection Agency ADDITIONAL INSPECTION QUESTIONS Concerning the embankment foundation, was the embankment construction built over wet ash, slag, or other unsuitable materials?
