of sampling. Create a "best fit" curve for
the daily leakage rate data set in order
to project future flows. Solve for the "x"
value where the "y" value is equal to the
site's ALR. This can estimate the number
of days remaining until the flows get down
to an acceptable level.
In tandem with ELL testing for leaks in
the primary geomembrane, LDS material
testing and matching the measured flows
to the theoretical curve should provide sufficient evidence that the leakage is attributed to residual construction water and not
to leakage of the primary geomembrane.

Hey, it's me, Geo The Gopher.
And I say... Stay Dri, Specifi Mirafi ®.
I'm here to tell you about this groundbreaking product from TenCate. It's called
Mirafi® H2Ri and it's the real deal. In fact, it's the only geotextile with enhanced lateral
drainage and the ability to remove water in unsaturated conditions. Plus, its wicking
capabilities are so strong that it can actually move water uphill. Also, it works in any
condition or climate. Impressive, right? We think so too. So put an end to potholes
