following:
[Comment: The subsurface investigation
conducted to provide the information required by this paragraph may be combined
with the subsurface investigation conducted to provide the information required
by paragraph (C)(4)(f)(v) of this rule.]
(a) The northing and
easting location coordinates of the subsurface investigation site.
(b) Surface elevation
surveyed to the nearest tenth of a foot.
(c) Depth interval for
each stratigraphic unit.
(d) Field descriptions of
the consolidated and unconsolidated units. At a minimum, the information shall
include the following:
(i) Textural
classification for each unconsolidated stratigraphic unit in accordance with
ASTM D2487.
(ii) Color.
(iii) Moisture
content.
(iv) Stratigraphic
features such as layering, interbedding, or weathering.
(v) Structural features
such as fracturing or jointing.
(vi) Visible accessory
minerals such as pyrite, calcite, or gypsum.
(vii) Rock type such as
limestone, dolomite, coal, shale, siltstone, or sandstone.
(viii) Thickness.
(ix) Variations in

stratigraphic unit.
(e) Depth to
saturation.
(f) Hydraulic
conductivity, including the following:
(i) For saturated
unconsolidated stratigraphic units, at least one field measurement of hydraulic
conductivity per saturated unconsolidated unit and one additional measurement
per saturated unconsolidated unit for each twenty acres.
(ii) For unconsolidated
stratigraphic units, from which an undisturbed sample can be collected, at
least one laboratory measurement of vertical hydraulic conductivity per
unconsolidated unit and one additional measurement per unconsolidated unit for
each twenty acres.
(iii) For saturated
consolidated stratigraphic units, at least one field measurement of hydraulic
conductivity per saturated consolidated unit and one additional measurement per
saturated consolidated unit for each twenty acres.
[Comment: Most field methods for
measuring hydraulic conductivity primarily evaluate lateral hydraulic
conductivity, but also account for at least some effects of vertical hydraulic
conductivity over the tested interval. In cases where laboratory measurements
of vertical hydraulic conductivity are obtained for unconsolidated saturated
units which are wholly or partially saturated, the vertical hydraulic
conductivity should be compared to the field hydraulic conductivity to help
evaluate the extent to which near-vertical fractures may be contributing to
ground water flow through the unit. Hydraulic conductivity data should be
interpreted with respect to the primary and secondary porosity features that
are observed or are reasonably expected to occur in the investigated units, as
well as the stratigraphic and structural features of the investigated
units.]
(g) Yield of any
significant zones of saturation and of the uppermost aquifer.
(h) If an unconsolidated
aquifer system capable of sustaining a yield of one hundred gallons per minute
for a twenty-four-hour period is suspected beneath the facility based on

(v) Information collected
at the site and used to prepare the geotechnical analysis required in paragraph
(C)(5) of this rule. This information shall be presented on logs appropriate
for the subsurface investigatory method used. The subsurface investigatory
method and frequency must be adequate to find the unconsolidated stratigraphic
units susceptible to bearing capacity failure, static stability failure,
seismic stability failure, or settlement at the site. The information shall be
collected for each unconsolidated stratigraphic unit under the facility down to
fifty feet below the proposed depths of excavation. At a minimum, the
information shall include the following:
[Comment: Ohio EPA recommends a frequency
of one subsurface investigatory site for every four acres on a more or less
uniform grid across the site. However, for sites that are located in areas
where landslides or mass movements of unconsolidated material have occurred, or
are underlain by complex geology with multiple unconsolidated stratigraphic
units, more borings may be necessary pursuant to paragraph (A)(1) of this rule.
Sites that are located in areas with a consistent stratigraphy, which is
supported by comprehensive and reliable information from previous studies, may
use a lower frequency of borings. Ohio EPA recommends against boring through
cap, existing waste, or liner to obtain this information. Other methods or
increased borings around the landfill footprint should be used.]
[Comment: Given the objective of finding
thin unconsolidated stratigraphic units susceptible to bearing capacity
failure, static stability failure, seismic stability failure, or settlement,
the unconsolidated stratigraphic units should be logged continuously, and the
subsurface investigation may also need to go deeper if publicly available data
gathered pursuant to paragraph (C)(5)(h) of this rule or if field data gathered
pursuant to paragraph (C)(4)(d)(i) of this rule indicate that deeper
susceptible units exist.]
[Comment: The subsurface investigation
conducted to provide the information required by this paragraph may be combined
with the subsurface investigation conducted to provide the information required

laboratory testing.
(f) Depth to phreatic and
piezometric surfaces.
[Comment: "Phreatic surface" is
synonymous with the term "water table" and "piezometric
surface" is synonymous with the term "potentiometric surface."
Hydrogeologic investigations generally use "water table" for a water
level surface in an unconfined saturated unit and "potentiometric
surface" for the pressure head surface associated with a confined
saturated unit. In hydrogeologic applications, the "water table" is
considered a special type of potentiometric surface where the head pressure is
equal to atmospheric pressure.]
[Comment: Any piezometric surfaces
associated with bedrock that may affect the facility during excavation or
construction may also be identified.]
(g) Results from
penetration testing in accordance with ASTM D1586, plus the corrected and
normalized standard penetration number or results from mechanical cone
penetration testing in accordance with ASTM D3441.
