摘要

Built in 1956, the Six Mile Creek Site 26 flood control structure functioned flawlessly forrn50 years. This earth fill embankment dam is 27 feet high, has a drainage area of 1,702 acres,rnand a sediment pool area of 17 acres.rnA 2006 inspection of Six Mile Creek Site 26 revealed a small opening resembling arncrayfish hole on top of the central part of the embankment. No other abnormalities werernobserved. The 2007 inspection noted that the hole had increased in size, but again no otherrnunusual features were visible. In March 2008 the Natural Resources Conservation Servicern(NRCS) inspector received a call from an adjacent landowner concerning a hole in the dam. Arnfollow-up visit found numerous holes ranging in size from 6 inches to 2.5 feet in diameter onrnboth the downstream and upstream slopes. These holes were limited to a section of the damrnthat was excavated in the mid 1980’s during installation of a second principal spillway conduit.rnMaterial collected from around the holes was subjected to field crumb tests forrndispersion according to procedures described in USDA-SCS Soil Mechanics Note 13. Theserntests resulted in moderate to severe reaction ratings of 3’s and 4’s. Samples sent to the NRCSrnSoil Mechanics Center Laboratory for double hydrometer testing produced percent ofrndispersion readings of up to 75%.rnIt is believed that soil in the reconstructed section of the dam may have been backfilledrnwith insufficient moisture content following installation of the second principal spillway pipe inrn1985. Other possible causes for formation of the holes include inadequate compaction,rninsufficient interface between existing fill and backfill, and exposure of dispersive soils duringrninstallation of the additional conduit. The recent widespread appearance of holes on thernembankment followed approximately 10 years of very dry conditions, likely forming cracks onrnthe surface of the dam. Periods of above average rainfall in early 2008 probably acceleratedrnthe erosion process.rnFour remedies were considered: 1 - install a chimney filter; 2 - excavate thernreconstructed section and mix soil with a chemical amendment prior to replacement; 3 -rndecommission the dam; and 4 – excavate and lime treat 2 feet of material from thernreconstructed area. Option 2 allowed for a thorough examination of damage, and was thernpreferred remedy based on practicality and cost considerations. The portion of thernembankment above the principal spillway conduit was removed, processed and treated withrnquicklime equivalent to 2% by weight hydrated lime, then replaced and compacted accordingrnto NRCS standards. Funding for this project was provided by the Arkansas Natural ResourcesrnCommission.
