GEOLOGY dJ Regional Geology y -

The basement rocks of Minnesota, some as old

• as Precambrian, generally are covered by Pleistocene glacial debr4s and younger alluvial deposits.

, Volcanic rocks occur in some areas.

Sediments of these types rest on glacially-carved bedrock of sandstone

^" and shale in turn underlain by weathered granite rocks. The bedrock surface slopes cast to southeast.

The Minnesota area here discussed is pa rt of a deep, southerly-trending trough in which were deposited sediments and volcanics dur-ing later Precambrian and Paleozoic time.

Paleozoic rocks are exposed in the southern part of the trough and, in the Minneapolis-St.

Paul area, form an artcalan basin.

Regional Faulting -

- cate the region.that a major fault system of Precambrian age may be present in Displacements of thousands of feet are believed to have occurred on the faults in Precambrian time and displacements of lesser magnitude in Paleozoic time.

they also bear no directional relationohip to present-day channel.

- The lomating of these old channels in hindered by lack of bore-hole information.

a Site Geology -

7 Decomposed igneous rocks of Precambrian age lie at a depth of about 70 iset at the site.

.J These rocks are overlain by 10 to 15 feet of sandstone which, although in places weathered and friable,

' is in general moderately well cemented.

The sandstone is in turn over-s lain sando byand approximately gravels. 50 feet of glacial and alluvial debri's co;tsisting of lain by clay of variable thickness.In the reactor-building area, the sandstone is ove J

Seismic llistory - Table A nume rically lists the earthquakes in the

" gene ral region in and a round Minnesota, Those more applicable to the site are plotted on Plate I. The earliest earthquake on record oc-

.; curred in 1860 in central Minnesota, thus the record here is for only some mnety years, N During that period the historical carthquakes have had little effect at the proposed site.

N Faultine in Area -

Eault - is 23 mIIes southeast of the site (Plate 2).The According to nearest known o refe renced geological information, there is no indication that faulting

~~ has affected the area of the site in the last few million years. The major fault system of Precambrian age, which is associated with the Precambrian structural trough, is also seen on Plate 2. Major move-

- ments of thousands of feet along this system appear to have been restricted to Precambrian time, with minor displacements having oc-curred during the Paleozoic. Faulting within recent geologic time is not in evidence.

Richter's Seismic Regionalization Map (Plate A, Appendix)

• rhows the area of. the site in a probable maximum intensity of VIII, Modified Mercalli. This intensity has been based o'n the area's rela- _

tionship to the Canadian shield. Stable shields in other continents are usually ea fringed rthquake s. by belts of moderate seismicity, with occasionally large llistorically, this area is too young to prove or disprove such seismic activity, The Coast and Geodetic Survey's Seismic Probability Map of the

_ United States a g e.

(Plate B in Appendix) assigns the area to Zone 0 - no dam-1t is our opinion that neither the regionalization nor the probability map alone.

is catisfactory in determining a proper seismic factor if considered e Each, however, in based on judgment and fact which, when

,y weighed with other data, become more meaningful. In the case at hand, the assignment of an VIII as the largest probable intensity for general

- area must be tempered by the fact that the intensity at or near the sand-s stone will be much less than that experienced in areas of less competent material, where invariably the maximum damage is sustained.

y. Earthquakes can and do occur in this region away from faults, and probably result from residual stresses due to recent glaciers, A quake simila r to Nos.

tion of equipment support.

" (2) For Resonance Category: Elimination of resonance phenomena is one of the principles of the design. In order to eliminate resonance vibration some modification of the natural frequency of the

^ supporting structure may be required. In case the resonance vibration cannot be avoided, prevention of large amplitudes by means of damping devices is requiredor dynamic design considering resonance vibration

is required. In case the mass of the object is such as to produce an '

" Appendage" condition with large deflections and accelerations, a thorough dynamic study will be performed. Should the restriction of vibration be

^'

enough to make the object rigid, examination for rigid category is also

, required. ,

(3) For Flexible Category: Those items which are de sig-nated as flexible will be designed using induced accelerations correspond- 1 ing with their f requencies. Careful examinationn will be made concerning '

objects coming into contact because of excessive displacements.

3. For structures and equipment too complex for direct analytical procedures, vibration testa should be pc rformed to establish the earth-

Parkinson, Proj ec t Engineer Gentlemen: Seventh Supplement - Report of Foundation investigation Proposed Nuclear Power Plant-Uni t Number i Monticello, Minnesota For Northern S tates Power Company This letter presents our opinions and data pertinent to questions asked by the Bechtel Corporation concerning dewatering operations to be per-i formed at the site of the Proposed t4uclear Power Plant-Unit flumber I in Monticello, Minnesota. We understand that the main dewatering system will consist of large diameter wells installed around the periphery of the proposed construction and penetrating into the underlying sandstone forma-tion. The foilowing questions regarding dewatering operations were asked: 1 - Will the dewatering operations at the site affect the performance of privately owned wells existing near the site? We understand that the dewatering system is designed to remove 400 pillons per minuto during low water conditions and up to 3.500 gallons per minute during high water conditions (A high water level assumed at Elevation 916 is anticipated during flooding of the Mississippi River.) The dewatering system is designed for a maximum capacity of 6,000 gallons per minute. l .u e- ~ fo ', 4 ot, . t -Occhtel Corporation-October 17, 1966 page - 2 2 - Will-limiting the soilds content in the ground water removed from the site by the dewatering' system to _{ ten parts per million (10 ppm.) be sufficient to pre- l' vent detrimental loss of ground in the v!cinity of the excavation? - . 3 - Will the ground water removed f rom the site by the de-watering system be suitable for use in concrete mixing operations and usable for plant sanitary and drinking purposes? Based on our knowledge of the subsurface condi t!ons_ in the vicinity of the site, we estimate that, during high water conditions, the zone of. in-fluence of ground water drawdown in the~ vicinity of the site will.be on the-order of 2,000 feet or'less. Hence, wells located 2,000 feet or more from the proposed excavation should not experience measurable drawdown in their normal water levels. Due to the variability of subsurf ace permeability-characteristics, our estimate of the zone of influence is considered subj ect ' t to some uncertainty. We therefore recommend that pumping and drawdown data obtained during test pumping operations at the site be provided to us so that we may review and modify our conclusions if necessary.. It is our opinion that limiting the sollds content in the ground ' water removed from the site to ten parts per million will be sufficient to prevent detrimental loss of ground within the. construction area. We recom- ~- mend that the contractor be required-to provide substantiating data'through-out the dewatering program to veri fy that- the solids content of the pumped water does not exceed the limiting value. J a' if the total solids content of the water to be removed f rom the excavation is limited to ten parts per million, the water will-not contain an amount of total-solids which would preclude-its use for concreto mixing-1 and for plant sanitary and drinking purposes. iwever, we recommend that samples of the ground water be obtained and subjected to laboratory chemical analyses to insure that its chemical composition is suitable for these pur-poses. 1 y - p g --- u .O *

We understand that two - 100 gallon per minute water wells will be installed; however, both wells will not operate at the same time. One of the two wells will act as a reserve wel1. It is our opinion that the wells should be located a suf ficient distance from the plant structures such that if accidential spillage of effluents occurs at the plant, the ef f luents wou ld not contaminate the wells. Based on our knowledge of the subsurface conditions in the vicinity of the site, and the results of engineering studies regarding the drawdown char-acteristics related to the subsurface conditions for a 100 gallon per minute well, we recommended that the wells be located upstream (west) and a minimum distance of 300 feet from the plant site. It is our opinion that a well located at the reconwended minii,um dis tance will not cause subsidence to occur in the vicinity of the proposed plant area. I i _.. ,, , e-o $, t , .

We understand that it is desired to complete the earthwork operations during fall of. 1966 such that the construction of the proposed nuclear 1aciIity.may be started early in 1967. -The. foundation grade in the Turbine Generator-- Building area will be established at elevation 906 and in the Reactor-Building area at elevation 890. In previous reports submitted, we indicated that a stiff to hard' silty clay layer is present near the proposed foendation grades. This . l aye r i s subj ec t to swelling should a ' source of water- be present for the silty clay to absorb. We reconwended t hat ' a' minimum conf i ning1soi l~ pres-sure on the order of 600 pounds per square -foot be provided over the silty; clay layer .in order to restrict. swelling. It was' recommended that the= ini t ial excavat lon be discont inued, prior to the flooding of the excavpJon. -at olevation 905.

We have  ! evaluated the problems associated with exposing the silty clay and it is our opinion that one of the following three methods should be considered , to restrict the swelling of the exposed silty clay layer along the common i boundary between these buildings: ' 1 - A temporary bern fil!, approximately ten feet in heignt, could ce placed on top of the exposed silty clay layer along the common boundary subse-quent tions andto the complet ion of the earthaork opera-prior to flooding the excavation during the vinter months. This temporary berm will pro-vide the minimum recommended confining pressure and could be removed in the spring of 1967, after the excavation is dewatered. 2 - Asubsequent continuous dewatering operation con be maintained to the completion of the earthwork opera-tions throughout the winter months and until the sub-structures are completed. The continuous dewatering operation would remove the water source and thereby prevent swelling. 3 - The under silty clay layer could be entirely removed from the lurbine Generator Building and replaced with compacted granular fill. of the Griffin Well PointWeCorporation, have discussed the earthwork operations with a represen dewatering system will be required for it was his opinion that a two stage the Reactor Building in order to complete the earthwork operations in this area.

• The icwering of the Reactor Building foundation f rom the previously planned elevation 893 to the presently planned elevation 890 will redu e the influenc e of t he foundat ion pret tures of this building on the settierent be-havior of the adjacent Turbine Generator Building. It is estinated that the Turbine Generator Building established at elevation 905 on an earth supported mot foundation impos1rg a dead p'us live load of 3,500 pounds per square foot on the urderly Hg soil wil undergo an essentially uniform total settlement on the order of cre-quarter inch oc less. Dur i ng car t hqual.e loading, we estinate that an additic,al settlement en the order of one-sixteenth of an in:h or less could occur due to consolidation of the granular soils which urderlie the -at foundation. The carthquake loading will be of such short duration that no consolidation of the silty clay layer is anticipattd.

The rarth wall of the i:cactor Building will be subjected to the load plus horizontal components of the adjacent Turbine Generater foundation the lateral pressures due to fill and water. We present on Plate I the mag-nitude and distribution of the i rlzental components of the foundation load of the Turbine Generator Bulldlog plus the lateral pressures due to fill and water.

These tests were performed in accordance with t' method described on Plate 6, Methed of Performing Consolidation Tests. Additional descriptions , of the procedures used are presented on Plates 2, 3 and 4. In order to evaluate the swell characteristics of the stiff to bard slity clay, we performed loadit" tests to approxlhate the field conditions which will be imposed on the silty clay layer. The results of these loading tests are presented on Plate 4. POSSiblE WELL LOCATI0t 11 has been requested that we c omment on poss it;le locat ions for water wells to be installed within the plant area, The g' und water gradient in the vicinity is relatively flat, shallow ground water n:ves gercrally to-ward the Mississippi River in the immediate vicinity of the ptcpcsed plant, and deep grour'd water moves br( adly towar d the southeas t in the river sedi-ments overlying the site, Ground water in t h e '. i c i n i t y o f the plant 'ay be developed from either the Mississippi River s< diments, predominar.t ly sard with gravel, or from the underlying sandstone tormation. Wells penet rat ion ei ther of these aquifers wili cause localized (one-shapeti depresslen', in the 9 ound water table, it is anticipated that !be area l '1 the immediate vicinity of thesc < wells may undergo some surface subsidence due to the insieuse in inter-granular soll stress caused by the lowering of the wates table. the depressed-water table will also cause a baalized nround water gNdient toward the wells.
