Liner Design Guidance for Confined Disposal Facility Leachate Control

Abstract : This technical note provides design guidance for liners used to reduce the release of contaminants from confined disposal facilities (CDFs) containing contaminated dredged materials. Design requirements, geotechnical considerations, material selection, required thickness, construction, quality control, and monitoring are included. References to detailed design procedures are also given. This technical note is intended for use by USACE personnel and federal and state regulatory agency personnel, as well as dredging permit applicants and others.
