18. Summary of Geotechnical Findings • Alluvial (Surficial) Soils Ranged from approximately 75 – 100 Feet Thick • Alluvial Soils = Primarily Sand with some Clay and Silt Units • Groundwater Table within 25 feet of Ground Surface • High Hydraulic Conductivities in Surficial Soils based on Pump and Slug Testing • Vertical and Inclined Borings and Rock Cores • Piezometers Set in Vertical Borings • Bi-weekly Monitoring of Groundwater Levels - 18

19. Summary of Geotechnical Findings • Bedrock Consisted Primarily of Competent Limestone and Dolomite • Shale Underlying the Alluvial Soil on Southern End of Tunnel System (DRTC) • Shale Ranges from 6 – 30+ Feet Thick • Bedrock was Weathered Near Soil/Rock Interface • Bedrock Permeability Fairly Consistent Throughout Deep Bedrock Layers (150+ Feet BGS) • No High Permeability Zones Encountered Below Soil/Rock Interface - 19

20. Summary of Geotechnical Findings • Rock Quality Designation (RQD) indicates Bedrock is Sound and Relatively Consistent, and Not Heavily Fractured (Phase 1A) • Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) averaged 9,000 to 10,000 pounds per square inch (Phase 1A) • In Summary, Rock is Very Favorable for Tunneling - 20

21. Summary of the Fall Creek/White River Groundwater Management Plan (GWMP) • Overall Goal of the GWMP was to Evaluate Various Scenarios During Tunnel Construction and Future Operation to Determine Any Potential Short-term of Long-term Impacts to Groundwater resources • Regional Cooperation to Evaluate and Monitor Groundwater Levels (Piezometer Readings) • Development and Calibration of an Existing Conditions Groundwater Model • Alternative Scenarios Evaluation • Groundwater Risk Registry - 21

22. Groundwater Model Boundaries - 22

23. Profile of Conceptual Groundwater Model - 23

24. Alternative Scenarios • Primary Considerations • Concerns During Construction (e.g., encountering fractures and potential solution features) • Long Term Operational Impacts of Groundwater • 12 Scenarios Modeled • Scenarios 1-3 – Expected Conditions During Construction • Scenarios 4-6 – High Infiltration During Construction • Scenarios 7-9 – Expected Conditions During Long Term Operation • Scenarios 10-12 – High Infiltration During Long Term Operation - 24

25. Scenario 1 – White River Tunnel Alignment, Expected Conditions During Construction • Deep Carbonate (Layer 4) - 25

26. Groundwater Impact Potential (Localized) White River Impact to GW Table Tunnel - 26

27. Local and Sustainable Project Requirements • Balancing Opportunities and Risk • Not just a Linear Sewer Project - Large Diameter and Complex Tunnel Alternative • Incorporate Sustainable Design Features and Operational Strategies • Green Infrastructure When and Where Appropriate • Begin with the End in Mind (O&M) - 100+ Year System Life Solution • MBE/WBE/Veteran Involvement and Mentoring • Local Execution of Work Preferred • Meet the Revised Consent Decree Schedule - 27
