WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring 2012 Meeting April 26, 2012 Presented by Scott Ponstein

 Preferred Sands silica sand mine  Woodbury, MN  January 2012  Sand silica waste, by-product of silica sand washing process  Pump sand waste from frozen settling pond  Dewater in geotextile tubes WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring 20122Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering

WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring 2012Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering3

 Very short time frame (3 days from approval to mobilization)  Remove 2 million gallons of material from frozen settling pond  Utilize Pit Hog pumps to move material  Geotextile tubes to dewater WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring 20124Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering

 Chain saw  Gantry crane & truck-mounted boom crane  (2) Pit Hog pumps with hydraulic power packs  (2) 6” diameter HDPE pipelines  22 gph polymer makedown & injection system  (2) Geotextile tubes, 75’ by 200’  10,000 lb off road forklift  Miscellaneous torches and heaters. WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring 20125Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering

Holes cut in ice using chain saw Pumps, suspended by cranes, lowered down into pond Pumped sand slurry injected with polymer Sand slurry-polymer mixture pumped into geotextile tube for dewatering Geotextile tube weep water pumped back to pond WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring 20126Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering

WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering Geotextile tube during pumping

WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering Weep water drainage

WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering Weep water return pipeline

WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering  Below zero temps nearly every day  Working on ice (slips/falls, breaking through)  Keeping ice from forming around the pumps  Polymer system freezing up  Pipelines freezing during shutdowns  Geotextile tube freezing overnight

 Actual polymer dose was up to 4 times what was expected  Had to disassemble pipelines and completely drain them every night to prevent freezing  Stress on mechanical equipment (pumps)  Geotextile tubes performed differently  3-4” ice formed on geotextile tubes overnight; hard to dewater in the morning WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering

 Level of the pond lowered 3 ft  Depth of sand waste lowered 5 ft  Project completed in 14 days (including mobilization & demobilization)  Satisfied client WEDA Midwest Chapter Spring Extreme Weather Pumping & Dewatering
