AET Report No. 31-00455.02
Dear Mr. Englebert:
American Engineering Testing, Inc. has prepared this report for the above-referenced project in Eau
Claire, Wisconsin. This report presents the subsurface hydrogeologic conditions that we observed at
22 soil borings, 8 new piezometers and 7 existing dewatering wells on this site. The purpose of this
exploration was to assess aquifer characteristics for future dewatering efforts to maintain the
groundwater level below the digester complex during the 100-year flood conditions of the adjacent
Chippewa River.
Our preliminary findings and recommendations were presented to you on June 15, 2012. In lieu of
additional testing of the existing well(s), and based on the current pumping estimates and facility’s
volumetric discharge constraints, the City of Eau Claire has chosen to modify the basement floor of
the digester complex. Instead of dewatering, the floor slab will be reconstructed to structurally resist
the uplift forces from a rising water table.
We appreciate the opportunity to serve you on this project. If you have questions regarding the
information in this report, please call us.
Sincerely,
American Engineering Testing, Inc.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Eau Claire plans to upgrade its existing wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) facilities;
Donohue & Associates, Inc. (Donohue) is providing engineering services for design and construction. To
assist Donohue with its design, American Engineering Testing, Inc. (AET) has conducted geotechnical and
hydrogeological assessments. This report provides the hydrogeological assessment with a focus on
dewatering at the digester complex during Chippewa River flood conditions; the geotechnical report was
submitted separately. The hydrogeological assessment was based on subsurface explorations that included 5
existing dewatering wells, 22 soil borings, 8 new piezometers, 12 gradation tests and 24 sets of slug tests.
The shallow unconfined aquifer below the WWTP is sand and gravel of high hydraulic conductivity.
Under idealized aquifer and pumping conceptualizations for the 100-year Chippewa River flood
condition, we estimated that an aggregate pumping volume (discharge) around 7,500 GPM under steady-
state flood conditions would be required to maintain the groundwater level below the basement slab at the
digester complex. On June 15, 2012, we presented our modeling results and recommendations to
Donohue. Our recommendations had included cleaning one of the dewatering wells on the north side of
the complex and running a full-scale pumping test in this well, to verify the hydraulic conductivity
estimate and to determine the well’s efficiency.
Donohue subsequently requested additional modeling analysis on anecdotal evidence and requested
AET solicit bids for the full-scale pumping test. Based on the results of these services and on
physical volumetric pumping constraints at the WWTP, Donohue presented the City with an
alternative to modify the digester basement floor slab to resist buoyant forces from a rising water
table. The City has chosen the structural slab modification instead of a new dewatering system.

MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
EAU CLAIRE, WISCONSIN
AET REPORT NO. 31-00455.02
October 15, 2012
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The City of Eau Claire plans to upgrade its wastewater treatment plant facilities. Donohue &
Associates, Inc. (Donohue) is providing engineering services for design and construction of multiple
structural improvements. Donohue contracted with American Engineering Testing, Inc. (AET) to
assess the subsurface characteristics for both geotechnical and hydrogeological purposes.
Numerous structural improvements are planned for the WWTP facility. The proposed improvements
are described in AET’s Report of Geotechnical Exploration and Review dated May 22, 2012 (AET
Report No. 31-00455). In that report, AET presented recommendations for feasible methods of
earthwork and foundation design and construction.
This complementary report is intended to summarize the hydrogeological characteristics at the site and
to present our recommendations for a dewatering system surrounding the digester complex for the 100-
year flood scenario. In this report, we present a description of the site and regional setting, the scope of
services we provided, the results of our exploration and testing, and our recommendations and opinions
based on our findings with regard to a new dewatering system.
2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The City of Eau Claire municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is located at 1000 Ferry
Street, just east of the I-94 crossing of the Chippewa River (Figure 1). The WWTP is bordered by
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 2 of 25
the Chippewa River on the west, south and east; a levee was built around the facility for flood
protection. Grade elevations at the plant are near elevation 770 feet North American Vertical Datum
of 1988 (NAVD88), rising to 775 feet in the north part of the plant. The normal water level of the
Chippewa River is about elevation 755 feet near the site, whereas the 100-year flood stage at the
plant is reportedly at elevation 773.2 feet.
The buildings at the WWTP were constructed in two major phases, approximately 75 and 30 years
ago. Ferry Street enters the plant from the north on the east side of the property, and turns into the
parking lot south of the Administration building. The digester complex lies directly west of the
Administration building (Figure 2), and is surrounded by seven 18-inch diameter dewatering wells
that were installed about 60 feet deep (dewatering wells W-1 through W-7 on Figure 2). The
basement floor in the digester complex is at elevation 760 feet; the basement slab is reported to be 8
inches thick for a slab bottom at elevation 759.33 feet.
During periods of past high groundwater levels, uplift pressures were exerted on the bottom of the
digester complex basement slab and water has also leaked into the basement on some of these
occasions. Two pumps have been fitted in two of the dewatering wells at the site (wells W-1 and W-
7) in an attempt to control rising groundwater levels. The wells are reportedly set to start pumping
when groundwater reaches elevation 759 feet. Based on anecdotal evidence provided by the City,
these two wells maintain dewatered conditions below the floor slab when flood levels reach 768 feet
in the Chippewa River; discharge rates for this case are not known. However, these wells have not
performed as intended for higher river levels: groundwater breached the basement during the
September 2010 flood.
AET was provided two pump detail sheets, both indicating shallow vertical turbine pump heads rated
for 1,250 gallons per minute (GPM) and 24 feet of total dynamic head (TDH). One pump is listed as
an Aurora Series 1110 10FHM (Well Details sheet by Ayres Associates, no date), and the other is a
Layne Type RF816 (Layne Installation Plan dated March 23, 1988). According to these sheets, the
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review

AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 3 of 25
intake depths below the discharge inverts for these pumps are about 24 feet for the Aurora and about
28 feet for the Layne: AET observed pump heads at these two wells, but could not confirm the well
types, installations or depths.
The purpose of this study is to assess the soil and groundwater characteristics in the vicinity of the
digester complex. The geotechnical exploration program was utilized and augmented to provide
additional groundwater monitoring and testing capabilities. The intent is to provide Donohue a
review of the existing well system and its dewatering capacity, and provide recommendations for
modifications or improvements to this dewatering system.
3.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES
AET provided Donohue a proposal dated February 6, 2012 that described our geotechnical and
hydrogeological services for this project. Donohue authorized this proposal in writing on March 20,
2012. The scope of services germane to the hydrogeological exploration (including some overlap
with the geotechnical exploration) that were authorized and completed consisted of the following

piezometers; one set consisted of one falling-head (slug-in) test and one rising-head
(slug-out) test
f. Collected three sets of water level measurements in the piezometers
3. Dewatering Wells (without pumps)
a. Surveyed the top-of-casing and ground surface at each well location
b. Collected four sets of water level measurements in the wells
c. Observed well conditions using a SeeSnake video cable system
4. Hydrogeologic Assessment and Report
a. Described the subsurface conditions
b. Estimated the hydraulic conductivities using gradation results and the slug test data
c. Analyzed pumping scenarios using the existing well array and a computer
groundwater model
d. Prepared a hydrogeological report of findings and recommendations
We have prepared this report to describe the soil and groundwater conditions encountered in our
subsurface exploration; to review and evaluate these conditions with respect to the proposed project;
and to present recommendations for dewatering system adjustments and further testing or
assessments (e.g., a pumping test). This scope of services specifically excludes any environmental
testing of the air, soil or groundwater with respect to chemical composition or contamination.

Based on preliminary findings and recommendations, Donohue subsequently requested that AET
solicit quotes for well cleaning and testing and that AET perform an additional modeling analysis of
the City’s anecdotal evidence of dewatered conditions with the flood level at 768 feet in the
Chippewa River. The quote for well cleaning and testing was provided separately by others under
separate cover. The results of the additional modeling analysis are included in this report.
4.0 REGIONAL SETTING
4.1 Geology
According to Sheet 1 of the Water Resources of Wisconsin Chippewa River Basin (Young, H. L. and
S. M. Hindall, Hydrologic Investigations Atlas HA-386, United States Geological Survey, 1972), the
surficial soils below the site are sand and gravel, which is geologically classified as “unpitted
outwash,” indicating underlying topographical pits were not formed in the area by a rapid glacial
retreat (Wisconsinan Epoch). This sheet indicates that the underlying bedrock is sandstone from the
Cambrian period. The map does not differentiate the bedrock type, and it includes Jordan Sandstone,
St. Lawrence Formation, Franconia Sandstone, Galesville Sandstone, Eau Claire Sandstone and
Mount Simon Sandstone. It is likely that the overlying unconsolidated sand and gravel at this site is
more permeable than the underlying sandstone. For
this reason and the purposes of this study, the depth
to bedrock is likely more relevant than the type of
sandstone bedrock at this site.
The Depth to Bedrock Map of Eau Claire County,
Wisconsin (Johnson, D.M., Miscellaneous Map 37,
University of Wisconsin – Extension, Wisconsin
Geological and Natural History Survey, 1993)
indicates depths to bedrock in excess of 100 feet Misc Map 37 Excerpt: Depth to Bedrock

along most of the Chippewa River and several of its tributaries. These areas are indicated by the
dark purple in the inset above. The majority of the boreholes used to compile this map were not
drilled to bedrock near the site; these boreholes are indicated by open circles in the inset.
Based on these regional geological descriptions, the sand and gravel deposits within the Chippewa
River channel area appear to be deep and highly permeable. The results of our subsurface
exploration generally agree with these interpretations and are described later in this report.
4.2 Hydrogeology
The closest surface water feature that has the most potential to influence groundwater levels at the
site is the Chippewa River. The closest reach of the Chippewa River at normal water level is about
1,000 feet to the southwest of the digester complex. The topographic map on Figure 1 brackets the
normal water elevation of this reach of the Chippewa River between elevations 750 and 760 feet. As
referenced in our geotechnical report, the normal river elevation near the WWTP is around 755 feet.
The Chippewa River generally flows from the east-northeast to the west-southwest past the site, so
some drop in river elevation is anticipated between the east and west reaches that bracket the site.
The Generalized Water-Table Elevation Map of Eau
Claire County, Wisconsin (Muldoon, M.A.,
Miscellaneous Map 35, University of Wisconsin –
Extension, Wisconsin Geological and Natural History
Survey, 1992) confirms the local control that the
Chippewa River exerts on groundwater flow. The
inset to the right indicates groundwater flow toward
the Chippewa River on both sides of the river. Higher
flow gradients appear to the northeast of the site, but
the flow gradient flattens as it approaches the river.

The regional groundwater descriptions generally reflect the measurements that we have collected at
the site, which are discussed in detail later in this report.
5.0 SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
5.1 Field Exploration Program
The subsurface exploration program conducted for this phase of the project consisted of 22 standard
penetration test (SPT) borings (borings B-1 through B-22), 8 piezometers (P-3 through P-7, P-17, P-
19 and P-20), and 5 dewatering wells (W-2 through W-6). The piezometers were not installed in the
same boring from which the soils were sampled; rather, the piezometer borings were offset about 5
feet from the boring locations, were not sampled for soils, and were not drilled with bentonite
drilling fluid.
The boring, piezometer and dewatering well locations are shown on Figure 2. Location designated
“W-8 (?)” was not known to exist until later in our exploration; its depth and dimensions are
consistent with the other dewatering wells, but we did not conduct a video survey of this casing to
verify that it is screened. The logs of the borings, along with further details of the test methods we
used, are included in Appendix A. The logs of the piezometers, along with details on development,
are in Appendix B.
5.1.1 Boring Layout and Elevations
The locations and depths of the borings were chosen jointly by Donohue and AET. AET located the
borings in the field by taping from existing site features (e.g., building corners). AET referenced the
boring location ground elevations and piezometer top-of-riser elevations using an engineer’s level
and surveyor’s rod. AET used the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) survey
marker located just beyond the southwest corner of the Administration building parking lot. The
Wisconsin State Cartographer’s Office website shows this benchmark at elevation 768.24 feet
NAVD88.
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 8 of 25
Elevation information for the borings and piezometers is summarized in Table 1. The depths to
groundwater from the tops of risers that AET measured and the groundwater levels on dates
measured are also included in Table 1.
5.1.2 Drilling Methods
The soil borings that were sampled were drilled using 3-1/4-inch inner diameter HSA and the mud-
rotary method. The soil borings in which the piezometers were installed were drilled using 4-1/4-
inch inner diameter hollow-stem augers (HSA) and no drilling mud. All of the borings were
backfilled in compliance with the Wisconsin Administrative Code NR141. Wisconsin Department
of Natural Resources (WDNR) piezometer installation and development forms are included in
Appendix B.
5.1.3 Sampling Methods and Limitations
Split-barrel samples were collected by the SPT method in general accordance with ASTM: D 1586.
The sampler was driven at least 18 inches into the soil and the number of blows to drive the sampler
the 6 to 18 inches is referred to as the standard penetration resistance or N-value. Representative
portions of the recovered soil samples were sealed in jars to reduce moisture loss and were submitted
to our laboratory for examination, testing and final classification by a geotechnical engineer.
Unless actually observed in a sample, the contacts between soil layers are estimated based on the
vertical spacing of samples and the action of the drilling tools. Cobbles, boulders, and other large
objects cannot be recovered intact from test borings. They may be present in the ground even if they
are not noted on the boring logs.
Sample recovery can be limited if the sampler “pushes” coarse gravel or is obstructed on a hard
surface. Sample recovery lengths less than sampled intervals indicate that some soils in the sampled
profile were not recovered. In these cases, lenses or layers of differing soil types may exist in
subsurface profile that are not described on our boring logs.

Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 9 of 25
5.1.4 Borehole Water Level Measurements
The boreholes were probed for the presence of ground water during and after drilling, and water level
measurements were taken. Groundwater measurements are shown at the bottom of the respective
boring logs. The following information appears under “Water Level Measurements” on the logs:
▪ Date and Time of measurement;
▪ Sampled Depth: lowest depth of soil sampling at the time of measurement;
▪ Casing Depth: depth to bottom of casing or hollow-stem auger at time of
measurement;
▪ Cave-in Depth: depth at which measuring tape stops in the borehole;
▪ Water Level: depth in the borehole where free water is encountered; and
▪ Drilling Fluid Level: same as Water Level, except that the liquid in the borehole is
drilling fluid.
The true depth of the water table at the boring locations may be different than the water levels we
measured in the boreholes. This is possible because there are several factors that can affect water
level measurements in a borehole. These factors include the permeability of each soil layer in
profile, the presence of perched water layers, the amount of time between water level readings, the
presence of drilling fluid, weather conditions, the use of borehole casing, and the use of drilling mud.
5.1.5 Piezometer Construction and Development
We installed 2-inch diameter SCH 40 PVC riser and screen for piezometers next to borings B-3, B-4,
B-5, B-6, B-7, B-17, B-19 and B-20. The purposes of these piezometers were to allow groundwater
to stabilize for obtaining more representative measurements of static groundwater levels, and to
facilitate aquifer testing. The piezometer construction details are summarized in Table 1. The
piezometer construction logs are in Appendix B.
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 10 of 25
On May 16 and 17, 2012, we developed the piezometers using submersible pumps powered by 12-
volt batteries. The pumps were lowered and raised in the well screen while discharging, to remove
silt and clay, until the discharge water appeared relatively clear. A minimum of five well volumes
(accounting for both the casing and filter pack) were removed from the piezometers for development.
Purge volumes ranged from 45 to 85 gallons and purge rates ranged between 0.5 and 1.5 GPM. The
piezometer development details are summarized in Table 1. The piezometer development forms are
in Appendix B.
5.2 Laboratory Testing
The laboratory program consisted of the 12 grain-size distribution (gradation) tests down to the No.
200 screen size (ASTM: D 422). The gradation curves from these tests are on separate data sheets in
Appendix C.
5.2.1 Classification Methods
The soil classifications shown on the boring logs are based on the Unified Soil Classification System
(USCS), described in ASTM: D 2487 and D 2488. Where laboratory tests, such as gradation and/or
Atterberg limits, have been performed, classifications per ASTM: D 2487 are possible. Otherwise,
soil classifications shown on the boring logs are visual-manual judgments. We have attached charts
(Appendix A) illustrating the USCS, the descriptive terminology, and the symbols used on the boring
logs.
The boring logs include our interpretation of the geologic depositional environment. This
interpretation is based on our observation of the recovered soil samples and our knowledge of the
geologic history of the area. Observations of the surrounding topography, vegetation, and
development can aid this interpretation.

Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 11 of 25
5.2.2 Sample Storage
We will retain representative samples of the soils recovered from the borings for a period of 180 days
from the date of the geotechnical report of May 22, 2012. The samples will then be discarded unless
you notify us otherwise.
5.3 Field Testing
The field testing program consisted of a minimum of three sets of groundwater level measurements
and three sets of single-well response (slug) tests in the piezometers.
5.3.1 Groundwater Level Measurements
AET collected manual water level measurements from the accessible dewatering wells (W-2 through
W-6) and the piezometers using an electronic water level indicator with a tape graduated in
hundredths of a foot. The water levels were referenced to the top of casing. The dates of
measurement and results are listed in Table 1 and on Figure 3.
5.3.2 SeeSnake Video Survey
AET conducted a video survey of dewatering wells W-2 through W-6 on March 29, 2012. The video
survey was conducted using a RIDGID SeeSnake fiber optic camera. The camera on the cable is
unidirectional, but was articulated using a cloth measuring tape to direct the camera toward the
casing sidewalls. Recording to DVD was done for dewatering well W-5.
5.3.3 Single Well Response (Slug) Tests
AET conducted single well response (slug) tests in the piezometers on March 17 and 18, 2012. The
slug tests were conducted by measuring temporal changes in water levels in each of the piezometers
upon the introduction and removal of a solid cylinder (i.e., slug) in the water column; these tests are
referred to as “slug-in” and “slug-out” tests, respectively. A minimum of three sets of “slug-in” and
“slug-out” data were collected from each piezometer. Two slug sizes were used during testing, the
smaller of which was used on the second set of measurements.
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 12 of 25
The temporal changes in water level and temperature were measured down-hole with a pressure
transducer set about 6 to 8 feet below the water surface in the piezometer. The data was captured
following a logarithmically decaying schedule set to record in seconds, with several measurements
taken at the start of each test (approximately three readings per second). The elapsed time between
readings was set to increase as the test progressed, but responses were very rapid at this site.
6.0 FINDINGS
6.1 Surface Observations
South of the levee, the surface elevations at the plant are relatively flat, with higher grades on the
north side of the plant. The grades at the borings discussed in this report ranged from 768 to 772
feet. The piezometers were constructed in mostly green areas, to avoid traffic and plant operations.
6.2 Soil
The soil conditions we encountered are detailed in the logs of borings attached in Appendix A. The
logs contain information concerning soil layering, soil classification, geologic description, and
moisture. Relative density or consistency is also noted, based on the standard penetration resistance
(N-value) reported in blows per foot (bpf). The boring logs only indicate the subsurface conditions
at the sampled locations, and variations can occur between and beyond borings.
6.2.1 Texture and Stratigraphy
A detailed description of the soils profile at this site is presented in AET’s geotechnical report
(Report No. 31-00455), which was submitted under separate cover. Below about 1 to 6 feet of fill,
the majority of soil at this site is naturally-occurring sand to sand with gravel. Samples of clay and
silt were recovered at depth in two of the borings, below 55 feet, but these appear isolated and likely
have little to no bearing on flow conditions within the aquifer. In general, the soil types that we
observed in the 22 soil borings agree with the regional geologic description presented in section 4.1.

6.2.2 Particle Size Distribution Results
Twelve soil samples were tested for particle size distribution. The samples were chosen from the
screened intervals at six of the eight piezometer locations. The gradation results are summarized in
Table 2 and the gradation curves are presented in Appendix C.
All of the samples tested had 3.5% or less silt and clay content, and were classified as poorly graded
sands. The particle size diameters of the 10th
percentiles ranged from 0.19 to 0.35 millimeters, such
that hydraulic conductivity estimates could be calculated for all of these samples by both the Hazen
formula and the Kozeny-Carman approximation; the calculation sheets for these estimates are in
Appendix D and are also summarized in Table 2.
6.3 Ground Water
Ground water was present in the borings at depths between 11.7 and 17.8 feet bgs during drilling,
with a corresponding elevation range of 754.2 to 756.6 feet. The measurements span a few weeks
over the course of drilling and were made with a weighted fiberglass tape. After the soil borings
were drilled, eight piezometers were installed to more accurately measure water levels and to
facilitate aquifer testing. AET collected four sets of groundwater level measurements after
installation: one before piezometer development, one on the last day of slug testing, and two more in
the month that followed, each separated by about two weeks. The groundwater measurements in the
piezometers were taken with an electronic water level indicator. The results are summarized in
Table 1; the hydrographs are plotted on Figure 3.
The groundwater levels measured in the piezometers and dewatering wells on the first three
occasions varied less than 0.8 foot with respect to each other’s values, with the exception of one
outlier (P-17) that was measured prior to development. From the evening of May 16 to the morning
of May 18, the water table beneath the site dropped about 0.6 foot. The groundwater elevations
calculated from the May 18, 2012 measurements are plotted on Figure 4, with contouring output
from the computer program Surfer (version 7) as interpolated using kriging. These data indicate

AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 14 of 25
flow toward the Chippewa River under a general gradient of out 0.0011 foot per foot (approximately
0.1 foot vertical per 90 feet horizontal).
The groundwater level measurements on June 15, 2012 were about 2 feet lower than the previous
measurements on May 31, 2012. According to the National Weather Service river stage reports for
the Chippewa River at Eau Claire, the surface elevation was about 1.5 feet lower on for these dates
as well (http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?wfo=mpx&gage=eclw3).
Groundwater levels usually fluctuate due to varying seasonal and yearly rainfall and snow melt,
infiltration, nearby pumping, river and lake levels, and barometric pressure. Water levels measured
in the winter are typically lower and rise during the spring months. Based on the “clean” sand and
gravel and the apparent hydraulic connection with the Chippewa River, the river elevations probably
directly influence the groundwater levels below this site. Rises or drops in the river elevation likely
propagate quickly (i.e., with days or hours, or less) to the groundwater below the plant.
6.4 Aquifer Characteristics
The transmissivity of a homogeneous, isotropic sand and gravel aquifer is defined as the product of
the hydraulic conductivity and saturated thickness. Local estimates of hydraulic conductivities were
obtained from gradations and slug tests. The resultant hydraulic conductivity was used in
conjunction with a simplified, idealized conceptualization of the aquifer and boundary conditions of
flow to mimic the groundwater flow regime and predict groundwater table responses to selected
pumping scenarios.
6.4.1 Saturated Thickness and Porosity
The majority of the 22 soil borings terminated in sand and gravel, such that the shallow aquifer base
elevation was not determined. Based on the regional estimates of depth to bedrock, an aquifer base
elevation was set at 670 feet (i.e., 100 feet bgs) and its sensitivity to the computer simulations was
evaluated.
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 15 of 25
Porosity is the fractional relation of the volume of pore space to the bulk volume of solids. The
porosity of a disturbed soil sample is difficult to obtain, and is often estimated based on the soil type
and published values. The published range of porosities for a sand and gravel mix is 10% to 35% in
Groundwater and Wells (Driscoll, F. G., Second Edition, Johnson Division, St. Paul, Minnesota,
1986). A value of 30% was used in our evaluation for the entire site.
6.4.2 Hydraulic Conductivities
Based on typical parameter values for certain constants (e.g., porosity and shape factor), the
hydraulic conductivities estimated from the gradation tests ranged from about 100 to 350 feet/day
based on the Hazen formula and 70 to 250 feet/day based on the Kozeny-Carman equation. The
latter approach is highly dependent on the porosity of the soil, with a more rapid non-linear increase
in hydraulic conductivity with respect to an increasing porosity value. Conductivity estimates can
more than double with porosity increasing from 25% to 35%. The calculation sheets for these
equations are in Appendix D.
To better quantify localized hydraulic conductivities at the piezometer locations, we analyzed the
slug test data using the computer program Aqtesolv® Pro v. 4.50 and the Springer-Gelhar
(oscillatory) and Bouwer-Rice (straight line) methods of analysis. The changes in water level were
related to the water level surface and were normalized in the analyses. The translation method was
used to remove early “noise” in the data due to the non-instantaneous introduction of the slug as is
conventionally done, but care was taken to shift to a peak or trough for those tests that had oscillatory
behaviors to maintain the zero velocity boundary condition at the start of the test as required in the
solution.
The saturated thickness for the analyses was calculated separately for each piezometer location using
the aquifer base elevation estimate of 670 feet. Increasing the saturated thickness (i.e., varying the
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 16 of 25
base elevation) had little to no effect on the resultant hydraulic conductivity estimates, indicating
sensitivity to deeper saturated thicknesses is relatively low for this application.
The calculation sheets for the “slug in” and “slug out” tests that were analyzed are in Appendix E;
the results are summarized in Table 3. The results for the individual tests ranged from 82 to 569
feet/day. The majority of the slug data (all but one well) exhibited an oscillatory response, in which
the return to static conditions follows a diminishing wave form as
seen in the example to the right. This response is common “in
formations of very high hydraulic conductivity or wells with very
long columns of water above the top of the screen in formations
of moderate or higher conductivity” (Butler, J.J., The Design,
Performance and Analysis of Slug Tests, Lewis Publishers,
1998). Borrowed from terminology for a damped spring, these
responses are referred to as “underdamped.”
All of the piezometer slug data at this site exhibited underdamped responses except for piezometer
P-17. The data from this piezometer appeared to be “overdamped” for the slug-in tests and
“critically damped” for the slug-out tests. Normalized comparisons of these response curves indicate
that development of this well is suspect and that fines in the screened interval may be interfering
with its response. The slug-in values for P-17 corresponded to the lowest hydraulic conductivity
estimates.
The average hydraulic conductivity for all of the tests that were analyzed was approximately 325
feet/day. The average increases to 333 feet/day if the highest (P-3) and lowest (P-17) values are
removed. To arrive at a single, representative hydraulic conductivity for this site to use in the
computer simulations, the slug test data was averaged from the four deeper piezometers (P-3, P-4, P-
19 and P-20). The data from these four piezometers appear to visually fit the solution curves better
than the data from the shallower piezometers did; the longer water column may have been a factor in

accentuating the underdamped responses. Based on the results of these four piezometers, we used a
hydraulic conductivity value of 367 feet/day to estimate dewatering discharges and drawdowns for
the computer simulations.
6.4.3 Boundary Conditions at the River
Assuming a good hydraulic connection exists between the aquifer and the Chippewa River, the river
can be interpreted as a surface expression of the groundwater table and a control on the head along
its boundary. Therefore, the groundwater head was fixed along the river for the computer
simulations. Values were adjusted from higher head upstream to lower head downstream. The head
near the site was set within a few tenths of elevation 755 for existing conditions and 773 for flood
conditions. Discharges to or from the river will adjust accordingly to maintain these heads in the
computer simulations.
6.4.4 Uniform Flow
Other elements far away from the site that effect groundwater flow to the site (e.g., lakes, rivers and
rainfall) can be approximated as uniform flow. The uniform flow discharge is distributed equally
along the vertical profile. Uniform flow can be calculated using a simple relation and three observed
groundwater levels from triangulated wells or piezometers. The groundwater levels measured from
the heads at P-4, P-17 and P-20 were used to calculate this discharge value; the suspected insufficient
development at piezometer P-17 is not a concern for post-development water table measurements at
this location. The calculation sheets for the uniform flow values used in the computer simulations
are included in Appendix F.
6.5 Computer Model Simulations
We used the Multi-Layer Analytic Element Model (MLAEM v. 5.1.08 Dev) to implement the
analytic solution and analyze selected dewatering scenarios; our models only used one layer (aquifer)
for the saturated coarse alluvium at the site. The model is intended as a simple engineering tool to
predict hydraulic conditions and estimate likely groundwater discharge volumes based on our
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review

AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 18 of 25
geotechnical report and the slug test results; it is based on a fixed geometric representation of river
near the plant and limited head-specified (e.g. the river and wells) and discharge-specified (e.g.
uniform flow and wells) elements. The pumping solutions are derived as “steady-state,” meaning
that the results represent conditions after continuous pumping for a long period of time; this solution
does not account for the volume of water that will be pumped from storage (i.e., residual water that
drains vertically from the soil pores as the water table is lowered) during the initial stages of
dewatering.
6.5.1 Existing and 100-year Flood Conditions
The above parameters for hydraulic conductivity (367 feet/day), aquifer base elevation (670 feet),
head at river (~755 feet) and uniform flow (~67 cubic feet of water per day per foot width of aquifer
angled at 49 degrees south of east) yield the modeled groundwater contours shown on Figure 5; to
complete the solution, head was fixed at one point on the south side of the river (i.e., the reference
point). The observed heads at the observation points on May 18, 2012 were subtracted from the
computed heads using the model, resulting in absolute differences of less than 0.2 foot and a root
mean square error of less than 0.06 foot. The hydraulic gradients compare well on the northern half
of the site, but are off by about a factor of two on the southern half. The southernmost piezometer
(P-20) corresponds to the highest (0.2 foot) error in head as well.
To model flooded conditions, the head at the river was increased 18 feet. The uniform flow was
recalculated using head values also elevated by 18 feet. The resultant contours mimicked those for
the existing conditions, but were 18 feet higher. This conceptualization was used to analyze selected
pumping scenarios.
6.5.2 Dewatering Scenarios
The general dewatering target is to maintain the groundwater elevation at 759 feet or lower between
the dewatering wells. The first scenario in Figure 6 shows the resultant contours and pumping rates
for the case that the head at all seven dewatering wells are maintained at 755 feet. The pumping
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 19 of 25
rates varied between 931 and 1,227 GPM, with a total discharge of 7,561 GPM. The groundwater
contours appear to lie between elevations 759 and 760 feet under the majority of the digester
complex. Therefore, the discharges of the southern wells would have to be increased, or a new well
should be installed farther to the south, to maintain the water level below elevation 759 feet below
the digester complex.
The second scenario in Figure 7 shows the resultant contours and pumping rates for the case that the
discharge at all seven dewatering wells are maintained at 1,000 GPM. The heads at the wells ranged
from 755.7 to 757.3 feet. The total discharge of this scenario is 7,000 GPM, which is less than the
above scenario. In this case the modeled groundwater contour at elevation 760 feet also encroaches
on the digester complex basement floor. Discharges on the southern two wells would need to be
increased, to about 1,250 GPM, which is the rated capacity of the two pumps that are currently
installed.
The third scenario in Figure 8 shows the resultant contours and pumping rates for the case that the
discharge at all three dewatering wells (W-1, W-4 and W-7) are maintained at 2,500 GPM. The
heads at the wells ranged from 747.5 to 748.3 feet. The total discharge of this scenario is 7,500
GPM, close to the first scenario, resulting in a similar dewatered drawdown pattern. To achieve this
condition, pump intakes would have to be installed deeper in the wells and the well screens would
have to be able to transmit water equal to or greater than this rate into the wells, without pulling sand
into the casing.
6.5.3 Solution Sensitivity
This solution is sensitive to the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer to a large extent and to the
aquifer thickness to a much lesser extent. The water table drawdown is directly proportional to the
ratio of discharge volume to hydraulic conductivity. Hence, if the hydraulic conductivity is doubled,
the discharge volumes need to be doubled to result in the same drawdown patterns and elevations
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Eau Claire, Wisconsin October 15, 2012
AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 20 of 25
depicted in the scenarios above. Similarly if the hydraulic conductivity is halved, so are the
discharges.
The aquifer thickness is also proportional with pumping, but not to the degree of hydraulic
conductivity. If the saturated thickness were more than doubled (e.g., lowered to elevation 570 feet),
an approximate, additional 2.7 feet of dewatering would be required at the wells.
6.5.4 Anecdotal Flood Simulation
Following discussions of the above modeling results, Donohue requested that additional simulations
be run based on anecdotal evidence provided by the City. The City reports that wells 1 and 7 are
able to maintain groundwater levels below the digester basement slab when flood levels are at
elevation 768 feet in the Chippewa River. In the model, the river elevation and uniform flow
discharge were adjusted accordingly and multiple simulations were run with various hydraulic
conductivity values; the actual discharges of the wells were not measured by the City, so these values
were fixed at the reported maximum discharge rates of 1,250 GPM for all scenarios.
The 760-foot groundwater contour for hydraulic conductivity values of 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300
feet/day are plotted on Figure 9. Based on this representation, the simulations using hydraulic
conductivity values at 200 feet/day or less achieved the reported result of groundwater being
maintained below the digester basement floor.
6.6 Dewatering Well Conditions
The modeled heads in the above scenarios are idealized values assuming full aquifer penetration and
100% efficiency at the pump. The dewatering wells at this site are partially penetrating and the
actual drawdown in the well casing will be lower than outside the well skin due to head losses at the
well itself.

6.6.1 Video Surveys
The construction and development details of the existing dewatering wells are not known, except for
depth and screen length. The video survey conducted by AET indicated that fouling is present on the
well casings and screens. The screens themselves were hard to discern, and were generally
interpreted to begin where the fouling switched from a uniform to an irregular appearance. The
screen slots may be vertical, but this could not be
definitively seen in this video assessment. The picture
to the right is a close up of the side wall of well W-5
at 44 feet below the top of the casing; the depth
stamped in the photograph includes slack in the
camera cable. The red arrow indicates the downward
direction. Floating debris that was scraped from the
sidewall during the camera’s decent can be seen in the
lower left corner.
Following AET’s video survey, the City provided a video tape of a previous survey of dewatering
wells W-1 and W-7 that was completed in 2001. The videos were taken before and after these wells
were jetted and cleaned. AET transferred this video to DVD and provided two copies to Donohue
and returned the original VHS tape to the City. As seen in the photograph below, the fouling was
removed and the well screen was easily observed; the red arrow indicates the downward direction.
The slots appeared rectangular with an approximate 4 to 1 aspect ratio, with the long axis oriented in
the vertical direction. However, post-jetting pumping information (e.g., discharge and drawdown)
was not provided by the City.

AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 22 of 25
6.6.2 Well Efficiency
Well efficiency is defined as the fractional relation of drawdown outside the well divided by the
pumping level inside the casing. For wells, “an efficiency of 70 to 80 percent is usually
obtainable if good design, construction and development practices are followed” (Driscoll, 1986).
Insufficient slot openings can increase head losses due to increased entrance velocities. The
fouling further reduces the slot openings and can reduce well efficiencies over time. Well
efficiencies will have to be determined via full-scale pumping tests to ensure that the vertical
turbine pumps that are currently installed can sustain pumping without drawing the water level
within the casing below the top of the pump intakes.

7.0 CONCLUSIONS
Based on our 22 borings, the soil at the WWTP appears to be relatively homogeneous sand and
gravel of high hydraulic conductivity. Eight piezometers were installed and subsequent slug testing
of the four deeper ones yielded an average hydraulic conductivity estimate of 367 feet/day. This
estimate was used to approximate discharge and drawdown for proposed pumping scenarios around
the digester complex. Based on an idealized aquifer and pumping conceptualizations for flood
conditions, we estimate an aggregate discharge around 7,500 GPM under steady-state flood
conditions will be needed to keep the water table below the basement slab during the 100-year flood
scenario.
The existing dewatering wells surrounding the digester complex have suffered from fouling and will
require jetting and cleaning if they are to be brought into service. The well survey video provided by
the City indicates that the interiors of the remaining wells likely can be rehabilitated to similar
conditions as the two pumping wells were back in 2001. Additional shallow vertical turbine pumps
similar to those installed in dewatering well W-1 and W-7 would be needed in all seven wells if
sustained flows are experienced during a 100-year flood event. This will require well efficiencies
that can sustain discharges into the casings so that the intakes do not draw air. Fewer wells would be
needed if deeper submersible pumps are used, and the intakes are lowered into the screened intervals
of the dewatering wells.
Simulations of the anecdotal report for flood levels at 768 feet indicate that dry conditions at the
floor slab are achieved for wells 1 and 7 both pumping 1,250 GPM in an aquifer with a hydraulic
conductivity at 200 feet/day or less. Therefore, the models based on the hydraulic conductivity of
367 feet/day may overestimate the required discharge volume and/or the digester walls extending
below the groundwater table may have a significant effect on the solution.

8.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the findings and conclusions presented above, we recommended the following actions be
considered for long-term groundwater level control efforts at the WWTP digester complex.
1. Continue to monitor water levels in the newly-installed piezometers on a quarterly (once
every three months) basis, increasing to daily measurements when the Chippewa River is at
or above elevation 759 feet near the plant. One or more of the piezometer could be equipped
with an automated data logger set to record at a specific time intervals.
2. Contract a water well driller to jet and clean dewatering well W-4. Have the driller pump the
well using a high capacity pump capable of discharging at least 2,500 GPM. Monitor water
levels in the pumped well and surrounding piezometers and wells using automated data
loggers. Utilize this data to determine well efficiencies and pumping capacities. If the pump
intake is set within the screened interval, the casing should be monitored for sand intrusion
during pumping.
3. Conduct a cost-benefit analysis on additional submersible and vertical turbine pumps, or
combinations thereof, to meet the aggregate pumping volume of 7,500 GPM. Adjust the
pumping scenarios and aggregate pumping volume based on the pumping test results at well
W-4, if needed.
4. Pull at least one existing pump from either well W-1 or W-7 to redo the video survey
completed in 2001 and observe the amount of fouling that has returned. Because these wells
are pumped on an infrequent basis, maintenance and cleaning should be done on a regularly-
scheduled basis. The pump manufacturers should be consulted regarding routine operation
even during low groundwater conditions to keep the pumps in working order and to ensure
operating conditions are maintained.
Higher flow rates should be expected initially as the soils drain due to gravity after the water table is
lowered; this volume of water is defined as storativity or the specific yield (drainable porosity) for an
Report of Hydrogeological Exploration and Review

AET Report No. 31-00455.02 Page 25 of 25
unconfined aquifer. Lowering of the groundwater table below normal levels can induce settlement.
Estimation or analysis of settlement due to dewatering was not part of our scope of services. A
qualified dewatering engineer should be consulted to determine whether the theoretical and actual
drawdowns could affect nearby buildings and utilities.
Donohue and the City weighed the implications of implementing these recommendations versus an
alternative to structurally modify the digester basement floor slab to resist uplift pressures. On
September 21, 2012, Donohue informed AET that the alternative approach for a structural slab was
chosen instead of a new permanent dewatering system.
9.0 STANDARD OF CARE
The data derived through this exploration program have been used to develop our opinions about the
subsurface conditions at this site. However, because no exploration program can reveal totally what
is in the subsurface, conditions between borings and between samples, and at other times, may differ
from conditions described in this report. The exploration we conducted identified subsurface
conditions only at those points where we took samples or observed ground water conditions.
Depending on the sampling methods and sampling frequency, every soil layer may not be observed,
and some materials or layers which are present in the ground may not be noted on the boring logs.
Within the limitations of scope, budget, and schedule, we have endeavored to provide our services
according to generally accepted engineering practices at this time and location. No warranty, express
or implied, is made.
If soil and groundwater conditions differing from our exploration and test results are identified, AET
should be immediately contacted to review these conditions to determine whether there are impacts
on our conclusions and recommendations. This report was prepared based on our current
understanding of the project and conditions at the site.

01REP051 (12/08) AMERICAN ENGINEERING TESTING, INC.
EXPLORATION/CLASSIFICATION METHODS SAMPLING METHODS
Split-Spoon Samples (SS) Standard penetration (split-spoon) samples were collected in general accordance with ASTM:D1586. This method consists of driving a 2" O.D. split barrel sampler into the in-situ soil with a 140-pound hammer dropped from a height of 30". The sampler is driven a total of 18" into the soil. After an initial set of 6", the number of hammer blows to drive the sampler the final 12" is known as the standard penetration resistance or N-value.
Disturbed Samples (DS)/Spin-up Samples (SU) Sample types described as “DS” or “SU” on the boring logs are disturbed samples, which are taken from the flights of the auger. Because the auger disturbs the samples, possible soil layering and contact depths should be considered approximate.
Sampling Limitations Unless actually observed in a sample, contacts between soil layers are estimated based on the spacing of samples and the action of drilling tools. Cobbles, boulders, and other large objects generally cannot be recovered from test borings, and they may be present in the ground even if they are not noted on the boring logs. CLASSIFICATION METHODS Soil classifications shown on the boring logs are based on the Unified Soil Classification (USC) system. The USC system is described in ASTM:D2487 and D2488. Where laboratory classification tests (sieve analysis or Atterberg Limits) have been performed, accurate classifications per ASTM: D2487 are possible. Otherwise, soil classifications shown on the boring logs are visual-manual judgments. Charts are attached which provide information on the USC system, the descriptive terminology, and the symbols used on the boring logs. The boring logs include descriptions of apparent geology. The geologic depositional origin of each soil layer is interpreted primarily by observation of the soil samples, which can be limited. Observations of the surrounding topography, vegetation, and development can sometimes aid this judgment. WATER LEVEL MEASUREMENTS The ground water level measurements are shown at the bottom of the boring logs. The following information appears under “Water Level Measurements” on the logs:
• Date and Time of measurement • Sampled Depth: lowest depth of soil sampling at the time of measurement • Casing Depth: depth to bottom of casing or hollow-stem auger at time of measurement • Cave-in Depth: depth at which measuring tape stops in the borehole • Water Level: depth in the borehole where free water is encountered • Drilling Fluid Level: same as Water Level, except that the liquid in the borehole is drilling fluid
The true location of the water table at the boring locations may be different than the water levels measured in the boreholes. This is possible because there are several factors that can affect the water level measurements in the borehole. Some of these factors include: permeability of each soil layer in profile, presence of perched water, amount of time between water level readings, presence of drilling fluid, weather conditions, and use of borehole casing. SAMPLE STORAGE Unless notified to do otherwise, we routinely retain representative samples of the soils recovered from the borings for a period of 30 days.

(aggregate length of core pieces 4" or more in length as a percent of total core run)
SA: Sieve analysis TRX: Triaxial compression test VSR: Vane shear strength, remolded (field), psf VSU: Vane shear strength, undisturbed (field), psf WC: Water content, as percent of dry weight %-200: Percent of material finer than #200 sieve STANDARD PENETRATION TEST NOTES The standard penetration test consists of driving the sampler with a 140 pound hammer and counting the number of blows applied in each of three 6" increments of penetration. If the sampler is driven less than 18" (usually in highly resistant material), permitted in ASTM: D1586, the blows for each complete 6" increment and for each partial increment is on the boring log. For partial increments, the number of blows is shown to the nearest 0.1' below the slash. The length of sample recovered, as shown on the “REC” column, may be greater than the distance indicated in the N column. The disparity is because the N-value is recorded below the initial 6" set (unless partial penetration defined in ASTM: D1586 is encountered) whereas the length of sample recovered is for the entire sampler drive (which may even extend more than 18").
