1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
This report presents the results of geotechnical investigation undertaken by Cardno for the proposed expansion of the Junee Correctional Centre located on Park Lane in Junee, NSW.
The proposed development site is in the order of 10 ha and consists of two sections, situated to the south and east of the existing facility. The proposal includes the addition of 496 beds for medium and maximum-security accommodation and associated facilities and an additional 150 minimum-security accommodation beds and facilities.
The project is currently in the Concept Design phase and the assessment was conducted to provide preliminary geotechnical data and comment on the potential contamination and options for treatment or disposal of filling located on site.
This report work was commissioned by Phillips Smith Conwell Architects on behalf of Department of Justice, NSW: Prison Bed Capacity Unit.
1.2 Objectives
The scope of works for the assessment was required primarily to inform the Concept Design, and to provide the following data and recommendations:
> Comment on the potential contamination and treatment for existing filling.
> General guidelines for site preparation and comment on the earthworks procedures and potential construction issues.
> Salinity and soil aggressivity assessment.
> Geotechnical parameters for structures.
> Preliminary site classification in accordance with AS2870 – 2011 based on existing conditions.
> Comment on founding conditions and footing design recommendations.
> Preliminary pavement design thicknesses for access roads.
1.3 Scope of Work
The scope of work broadly comprised the following:
> Desktop study comprising a review of available geological and geotechnical data.
> Inspection and site walkover to map salient features.
> Excavation of test pits across the site for geotechnical assessment of the subsurface profile
> Laboratory testing for to assess the geotechnical and chemical properties of the soils and rock encountered at the site.

2 Site Identification
2.1 Location and Identification
The site is located across Lot 1 DP703393 and Lot 2 DP703393 with a detailed site identification presented in Table 2 -1 below.

Site Zoning Primary Industry
2.2 Overall Development Site and Surrounding Area Description
The site located approximately 2.5 km from the township of Junee and is bounded by farmland in all directions with the nearest residential related structures some 500 m away.
The site itself is generally characterised by open grassed pasture or cropping land. The proposed maximum and medium security expansion is extensively located on Lot 1 DP703393 with the minimum-security expansion located on Lot 2 DP703393 based on the preliminary designs.
The site contained several structures at the time of site inspection, including sheds and other assorted domestic and farming associated features or objects such as: irrigation systems, tanks, fuel and chemical storage facilities and farming equipment.
The site topography falls to the west at approximately 2°, with the highest elevations in the east of Lot 2. A shallow grassed drainage berm is located towards the west of Lot 2 surface runoff control measure to divert any overland flow from higher elevations away from the corrections centre and associated infrastructure. Aside from the minor surficial overland drainage measures, no significant stormwater drainage infrastructure was observed.
At the time of the site inspection, vegetation at the site was characterised by grassed pasture or the plantation of crops. Mature and semi mature trees were sporadically located across the site or used as “wind breaks” between paddocks.

3 Site Investigation
3.1 Investigation Methodology
3.1.1 Field Work
A site walkover was conducted by Cardno’s Senior Geotechnical Engineer and Senior Engineering Geologist on the 9 August 2016 to map salient site and geotechnical features.
Intrusive fieldwork was conducted on 10 August 2016 following the initial site inspection, and comprised the following.
> Excavation of 11 test pits using a 5.5 tonne excavator fitted with a 450 mm toothed bucket. The test pits were distributed across Lot 1 in the south (TP01-TP07) and Lot 2 in the EAST (TP08-TP011) to provide coverage of the site with consideration to the future development requirements and the observed site features. The test pits were advanced to the target depth of 2.5 m, with approximately half of test pits terminated prior to the target depth due to bucket refusal or ‘virtual’ refusal in cases where progress was slow and nearing refusal.
> Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) testing conducted adjacent to the majority of test pit locations to provide an assessment of the in situ soil strength conditions.
> Hand penetrometer (pocket penetrometer) readings over the soil profiles in the test pits to supplement DCP testing and engineering/tactile assessment of the soil strength.
> Engineering assessment and logging of the subsurface profiles by a senior engineering geologist from Cardno.
> Sampling of material considered representative of subsurface profile encountered across the site for the purpose of laboratory assessment.
> Environmental surface samples were taken from selected locations based on site observations and were placed into laboratory supplied 250 g soil sampling jars with individual identifications, and preserved in chilled insulated containers during the fieldwork. The samples were refrigerated following the fieldwork and transported to the laboratory in an insulated container containing ice within allowable sample holding times.
> Backfilling of the test pits with excavation spoil materials, with nominal compaction using the excavator bucket.
The locations of geotechnical test pits are shown on Drawing 1 attached in Appendix A. The test pits were located by a hand held GPS device and as such, the locations shown on the drawings shall be considered as approximate only. Engineering logs for geotechnical test pits are contained in Appendix B together with explanatory notes.
3.1.2 Laboratory Testing
Laboratory testing for the purpose of geotechnical assessment was conducted at a Cardno NATA accredited construction materials testing laboratory and comprised the following.
> Four shrink/swell tests to measure soil volume change over an extreme soil moisture content range. The tests were conducted on remoulded disturbed samples.
> Four Atterberg Limits for material classification.
> Four Particle Size Distribution (PSD) for material classification.
> Four Emerson crumb tests to classify soil dispersion.
> Four 4-day soaked California Bearing Ratio (CBR) for subgrade strength assessment.
Geotechnical laboratory test report sheets are included in Appendix C.
Report on Geotechnical Investigation Junee Correctional Centre
14 September 2016 Cardno 4
The following analysis was conducted at SGS Pty Ltd, who hold current NATA accreditation for the chemical testing conducted.
> Four Soil Aggressivity suites including: - pH - Electrical Conductivity (EC) and Resistivity - Chloride and Sulfate (soluble)
> Four Salinity tests (calculated from EC), Exchangeable Cations and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC).
> Five of the following suites: - Total Recoverable Hydrocarbons - Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylenes (BTEX) - Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) - Organochlorine (OC) & organophosphate (OP) Pesticides - Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB) - 8 metals (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Pb, Ni, Zn) - Asbestos in soil
Laboratory Certificates of Analysis are included in Appendix D.
3.2 Investigation Findings
3.2.1 Regional Geology
A review of the Wagga Wagga 1:250,000 Geological Sheet [1] suggests that the site is typically on quaternary colluvium underlain by regional granite.
3.2.2 Subsurface Conditions
The soil and rock strata encountered in the test pits across the site comprised a relatively consistent natural clay soil profile overlying weathered rock generally summarised as follows.
> TOPSOIL: comprising Silty CLAY, of low plasticity ranging in depth to 0.1-0.2 m below ground surface (bgs) but on average 150 mm in thickness.
> COLLUVIUM or ALLUVIUM: low plasticity Silty CLAY, Sandy CLAY or Silty Sandy CLAY with minor component of gravel, generally firm in consistency with a moisture content wet of the plastic limit at the time of fieldwork.
> RESIDUAL: low plasticity Sandy CLAY or Silty Sandy CLAY, generally stiff to very stiff and wet of the plastic limit.
> WEATHERED ROCK: generally extremely weathered and extremely low strength GRANITE, completely weathered with little to no rock structure (i.e. with soil like properties) encountered at depths of 1.0-1.9 m bgs in all test pits.
No groundwater or seepage were encountered in test pits at the time of fieldwork; however, pits were backfilled on completion, which prevented further assessment of the groundwater conditions. No test pits were excavated in areas surrounding the existing structures at the site; however, surface samples were collected. Minor filling appears to be evident in these areas based on limited sampling conducted in conjunction with observations of the site surface disturbances.
3.2.3 Geotechnical Laboratory Testing
The results of laboratory testing are summarised in the tables below. Table 3-1 presents material property and soil classification testing, Table 3-2 presents results of the shrink/swell tests and the results of standard compaction and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) testing are summarised in Table 3-3.

CBR testing was undertaken on remoulded specimens compacted to a target 100% standard maximum dry density and soaked with a surcharge for four days. Subgrade strength is moisture and density dependent and where the existing subgrade is compacted to less than 100% standard compaction and moistures above SOMC exist, the in situ CBR values may be less than the above tested values.

4 Comment and Recommendations
4.1 Geotechnical Model
A generalised geotechnical model was developed for the site to inform the recommendations and design, and is broadly summarised as follows.
Unit 1 Surficial Soils
1A - TOPSOIL: organic and root affected material encountered up to 200 mm in thickness.
1B - FILL: minor filling observed primarily around existing structures and associated with construction of access roads and carparks.
Unit 2 CLAY
2A - Colluvium & Alluvium: soft to firm clay soils, generally wet of the plastic limit and shallow (extending to less than 1 m bgs).
2B - Residual: stiff to very stiff sandy clay soils weathered from granite.
Unit 3 Weathered Rock
3A - Extremely Weathered Granite: completely weathered such that the rock structure is not evident and the strata essentially behaves as a soil.
3B - Distinctly Weathered Granit: extremely weathered and very low to low strength granite.
4.2 Existing Fill and Contamination
Limited soil contamination testing was conducted to provide preliminary comment on treatment of soil surplus to the development i.e. waste. This assessment does not include a Phase 1 Contamination Assessment and the testing conducted is intended to inform the contamination assessment.
The results of the investigation are summarised as follows.
> The southern portion of the site is heavily disturbed although the majority of the site contains only minor anthropogenic disturbances related to primarily roads, carparks and farming.
> The fill and disturbed soils across the site appear to be primarily site won; however, there is some component of import most likely related to access track or pad construction.
> Some potentially contaminating activities are evident at the site.
> Laboratory testing indicates generally low levels of most organic and inorganic analytes; however, one sample (SS4) returned an elevated level of arsenic.
> Some minor staining (paint) was observed adjacent the structures in the southwestern portion of the site, and some hydrocarbon staining is evident adjacent the fuel storage tank.
> No asbestos fragments were identified on site with no detections in samples submitted for laboratory analysis.
Further assessment is required to adequately characterise the potential for contamination arising from the previous and current site use i.e. a Phase 1 Contamination Assessment.
In areas outside of the identified disturbed portions of the site, the excavated natural soils excluding the topsoil, would be suitable for reuse as engineered fill on site. Such soils could be classified as either General Solid Waste (non-putrescible) in accordance with the NSW EPA Waste Classification Guidelines [3], Excavated Natural Material (VENM) or Excavated Natural Material (ENM) [4]; however specific confirmation testing/assessment is required prior to removing soil from the site.
Report on Geotechnical Investigation Junee Correctional Centre
14 September 2016 Cardno 8
4.3 Earthworks Guidelines
4.3.1 Proposed Earthworks
The proposed earthworks are expected to include some cut, particularly in the eastern areas where the minimum-security expansion is proposed. The existing road levels may provide some constraint to proposed earthworks levels.
Based on the results of the investigation, excavations are likely to encounter thin layers of topsoil, colluvium, and residual clays overlying weathered rock. Clay profiles are generally shallow, with the exception of areas at lower elevations in the southwest portion of the site, and rock was generally encountered at depths averaging 1.5 m.
4.3.2 Site Preparation
Prior to bulk earthworks, the site should be cleared of any foreign matter or unsuitable material, which includes but is not limited to the following
> Vegetation or organic matter.
> Topsoil or soil significantly affected by roots or root fibres.
> Any scattered waste or dumped materials.
> Uncontrolled filling which would be subject to further assessment.
Deleterious materials that cannot be reused on site shall be disposed of at a licenced waste facility and classified in accordance with the NSW EPA Waste Classification Guidelines [3]. The majority of inert materials could be pre-classified; however, special consideration may be needed for any putrescibles, farm equipment, fuel, oil, grease, or chemical storage devices. Stripped topsoils shall be stockpiled for re-use where suitable; or reassessed if affected by spills or other contamination.
Topsoils were generally encountered in the order of 100-200 mm in thickness. The root affected zone was generally limited to this depth; with some organics extending deeper; however, careful site preparation measures would maximise the re-use potential for soils underlying the topsoil materials. Following site preparation including stripping and stockpiling of the topsoil materials, appropriate erosion control and adequate drainage shall be maintained as per Council guidelines and below in Section 4.3.3.
As part of the site preparation, compaction or removal and replacing of the low strength colluvial/alluvial soils (Unit 2A) should be conducted. The need for and extent of this should be based on site inspection following stripping and although the unit generally up to 1 m in depth, the lower strength or soft layers were limited to the upper zone of the unit and are sporadic across the site. This is required in areas of proposed foundations, filling or pavements as described in the Sections below.
4.3.3 Drainage and Erosion Control
Prior to earthworks, appropriate site surface drainage and other measures should be implemented to prevent ponding and scouring during the construction, and to minimise the risk of trafficability issues on site clays during and after inclement weather. These measures shall include temporary drains, surface grading along with erosion and sediment control, and should be appropriately reinstated following the construction.
The soils are not considered highly dispersive based on the limited testing conduced; however, in general, regimented compaction and moisture control during fill placement is good practice and would aid in reducing the risk of erosion. A suitable thickness of topsoil (preferably >100 mm) shall also be provided to promote vegetation growth for longer-term erosion control.
Report on Geotechnical Investigation Junee Correctional Centre
14 September 2016 Cardno 9
4.3.4 Excavatability
The excavatability of the weathered rock encountered across the site was assessed by test pitting using a 5.5 tonne excavator fitted with a 450 mm toothed bucket. The results of the assessment are generally summarised as follows.
> Rock was encountered in all 11 of the test pits at depths ranging from 1.0-1.9 m bgs.
> Practical bucket refusal was encountered on weathered rock in five of the test pits at depths in the range of 1.4 - 2.3 m.
> The rock encountered comprised extremely low to very low strength granite; however, refusal is inferred to be on low strength granite.
> The rock encountered ranged from extremely to distinctly weathered. The majority of the granite was found to be one consistent rock mass and as such, the rock mass strength or excavatability was generally consistent across the entire site.
At the test pit locations, and across a majority of the site, excavations could be readily undertaken to the depths shown on the test pit logs using conventional earthmoving equipment such as large (20-30 tonne) excavators and D9 size dozers. Considering the rock was typically consistent in depth and strength across the majority of the site, machine refusal is likely to be encountered at similar depths across the entire site. Given the size of the excavator used (5.5 tonne) there is potential that larger machines may be able to excavate to deeper depths prior to refusal. Although the granite bedrock was found to be consistent across the test pits there may be pockets of deep or shallower rock that were not identified due to the spatial constraints of the test pits.
Where the excavation is relatively confined, such as in the excavation of services trenches, excavator bucket refusal would be expected at similar levels to those at which machine refusal was encountered during excavation of the test pits, depending on the size of equipment used. It is expected that for deeper excavation, hydraulic rock hammer excavation and the use of large capacity (30 tonne) excavators with a single ripper attachment may be required if slightly weathered of fresh granite is encountered.
No standing groundwater was encountered during investigation and dewatering is not expected to be required however, seepage may be encountered particularly at the soil and rock interface. Although not expected to be required, deeper excavations in the southwestern portion of the site may encounter groundwater, and where proposed, further assessment would be recommended. It should also be noted that groundwater levels are likely to fluctuate with variations in climatic and site conditions.
4.3.5 Excavation Stability
Excavations or trenches in the stiff or better clay or residual soil and weathered rock profile would be expected to stand close to vertical in the short-term. Unsupported short-term excavations or trenches may undergo some local slumping during excavations in the colluvium, or if seepage is encountered.
Where personnel are to enter excavations, options for short-term excavations include benching or battering back of the excavations to 1 Vertical to 1 Horizontal (1H:1V) within the stiff or better residual soil and extremely weathered rock profile, or the support of excavations. Short-term excavations within the more competent rock may be battered at steeper than 1V:1H may not require support; however, this would be subject to specific geotechnical assessment.
It is recommended that long-term excavations shall be either battered at 1V:2H or flatter (preferably 1V:3H) and protected against erosion or be supported by engineered and suitably constructed retaining walls. Long-term excavations may be battered steeper than 1V:2H in rock materials, subject to specific geotechnical assessment.

4.3.6 Filling
4.3.6.1 Placement Methodology
Fill shall be placed and compacted in accordance with AS 3798-2007 Guidelines on Earthworks for
Commercial and Residential Development [5] with consideration to the following recommendations.
It is expected that construction of fill platforms during the bulk earthworks, which would be suitable to support structural loads associated with development, would include the following. Within any road alignments, subgrade formation preparation shall be in accordance with Section 4.7.5.
> Removal of any existing fill, topsoil, slopewash or deleterious soils from areas where fill is to be placed. In general, unsuitable material as described in Section 4.3.6.3 shall be removed.
> Benching of the exposed subgrade or batter slope in the area where fill is to be placed if slopes are steeper than 1V:8H (approximately 7°).
> Proof rolling of the exposed subgrade to detect any weak or deforming areas of subgrade that should be excavated and replaced with compacted fill.
> Placement of fill in uniform horizontal layers with compaction of each layer to a minimum dry density ratio of 98% Standard Compaction (AS 1289 Clause 5.1.1) at moisture contents of in the order of ±2% but generally as close to SOMC as practical. Over compaction should be avoided. Fill materials shall comprise of suitable materials as detailed below in Section 4.3.6.2.
All fill shall be battered at a slope of 1V:2H or flatter (preferably 1V:3H) and temporary erosion control shall be provided as described in Section 4.3.3. To prevent erosion in the long term, provision of protection by vegetation along with adequate drainage is also required. Batter slopes of 1V:3H are recommended for long-term maintenance would reduce the risk of erosion. Where a suitable batter slope is not possible, the fill shall be supported by an engineer designed and suitably constructed retaining walls.
4.3.6.2 Fill Materials
Fill materials are expected to comprise site won soil and rock, and shall not include any unsuitable material as described in Section 4.3.6.3. The site materials may require treatment depending on the proposed use, and would be expected to require some degree of moisture re-conditioning, subject to weather conditions prior to and during construction. Fill materials are generally expected to comprise the following.
> Site won residual or colluvial clay soils: Generally, soils excavated on site with the exception of topsoil are considered suitable for re-use as engineering fill.
> Site won ripped rock: Generally, all site won ripped rock would be suitable, and would be the preferable material for re-use as engineering fill following moisture conditioning.
> Imported materials: Classified as Virgin Excavated Natural Material (VENM) in accordance with the NSW Waste Classification Guidelines Part 1 - Classification of Waste [3], or Excavated Natural Material (ENM) as per the Protection of the Environment Operations (Waste) Regulation 2005 The Excavated Natural Material Exemption 2012 [4].
4.3.6.3 Unsuitable Material
Materials excavated on site with the exception of topsoils and soils with the following properties are generally considered suitable for re-use as engineering fill.
> The presence of vegetation including tree stumps, roots, root fibres or other organic matter.
> Silts or soils with a predominant portion (>50%) of silt.
> Existing filling subject to further assessment as required.
> Ripped rock comprising oversize material i.e. particle sizes of greater than 100 mm or 2/3 of the compacted layer thickness.
Soils with high moisture contents may be considered unsuitable at the time of construction. The requirement for moisture conditioning will depend on the weather conditions prior to and during construction.
Report on Geotechnical Investigation Junee Correctional Centre
14 September 2016 Cardno 11
4.3.6.4 Trench Backfill
Trench backfill including bed and haunch zones, and side and overlay zones shall meet the requirements of the Council conditions. Care is required to ensure that compaction is achieved over the entire fill area, particularly adjacent any vertical excavated faces. This may require ‘keying in’ or benching to allow compaction equipment to achieve full compaction to the edge. Alternately, the use of hand compaction equipment would be required.
4.4 Retaining Walls
4.4.1 Design and Construction Recommendations
All structural retaining walls or retaining walls in excess of 0.6 m in height shall be engineer designed and take into account the following.
> Surcharge loading from slopes and structures above the wall.
> Loading from any proposed compaction of fill behind the wall.
> Adequate surface and subsurface drainage shall be provided behind all retaining walls, including a free draining granular backfill to prevent the build-up of hydrostatic pressures behind the wall.
> Utilising materials that are not susceptible to deterioration.
> Foundations shall be in stiff clay, controlled fill or weathered rock below any unsuitable material such as uncontrolled fill, topsoil, slopewash or other deleterious soils.
4.4.2 Design Parameters
The following preliminary soil parameters are suggested for analysis of earth pressures from retained engineered fill, clay soils and weathered rock. The design parameters could be amended following finalising of earthworks extent and proposed fill material.

4.5 Salinity and Sodicity
The were no indicators of salinity or sodic soils identified during the site inspection and the results of the chemical testing confirms that the soils are non-saline in accordance with the Salinity Class Assessment Criteria [2].
Sodicity is the measure of exchangeable sodium in the soil and relates to the likely dispersion on wetting and potential reactivity. Sodic soils display surface crusting and low infiltration, are very hard dense subsoils, susceptible to severe gully erosion and tunnel erosion, and restrict root growth. Sodic soils are classified as soils with an ESP of 6-14% and based on the results of the testing conducted; the soils encountered at the site are non-sodic.
The results of the laboratory testing and site inspection indicate that salinity and sodicity do not present a constraint to the development.

4.6 Structure Footings
4.6.1 Site Classification
The laboratory shrink/swell testing conducted indicates that the tested clay soils are slightly to moderately reactive. Based on the soil profiles encountered in the test pits, and in accordance with AS 2870-2011 [6], classifications are in the range of Class S (Slightly Reactive) ranging to Class M (Moderately Reactive). The range of classifications is based on the assumption that all footings are founded in the natural clay/rock profile or controlled fill.
It is expected that Class M ranging to Class H1 (Highly Reactive) could be expected following the proposed earthworks if site won soils are utilised as filling. Notwithstanding this, final classifications would depend on extent of cut and fill and the reactivity of the material utilised as fill. Class P sites would occur where uncontrolled fill exists on lots and where the earthworks are not conducted in accordance with AS 3798-2007 i.e. where the filling is not defined as controlled fill.
The site classification range is preliminary in nature and following earthworks, classification should be conducted to ascertain final site classification prior to any foundations or footings being constructed.
4.6.2 Foundation Conditions and Footing Recommendations
The proposed structures are likely to be founded on shallow footings, with relatively lightweight structures and loading expected. All footings shall be founded below any topsoil, deleterious soils or uncontrolled fill, on strata of similar stiffness to minimise the risk of differential movements.
The colluvial/alluvial soils (Unit 2A) encountered across the site are of low strength and should not be relied on for foundation support. The foundation shall comprise of stiff or better clays (i.e. cu>50kPa). Depending on the extent of bulk earthworks, this unit may not present a significant constraint in that the soft layers will be either removed/compacted prior to filling, or removed in cut. Alternatively, footings need to be extended to depths below this low strength stratum.
If footings are founded below low strength layers (Unit 2A) in stiff residual soils or in engineered fill placed and compacted in accordance with the guidelines in this report, footing design shall be conducted on allowable bearing capacity of 100 kPa. Where founded uniformly on the extremely weathered granite, a bearing capacity of at least 500 kPa could be adopted depending on the depth and strength. The bearing capacities provided are based on the assumption of lightly loaded structures with footings that are embedded 300 mm, founded in minimum stiff or medium dense natural soil or engineered fill, and provided that confirmation of the bearing capacity is conducted during construction.
4.6.3 Soil Aggressivity
The soils encountered at the site predominately comprised clays and weathered rock with no groundwater observed. Low permeability clay soils above the groundwater level have a soil exposure classification of B in accordance to AS 2159-2009 [7].
Based on the results of the aggressivity laboratory testing, a Non-Aggressive classification could be adopted for durability design of subsurface steel and concrete elements in soil.
4.7 Pavements
4.7.1 Design Parameters
The material tested returned CBR values of 3.5% and 4% for clay soils and 8% for the weathered rock, with in situ CBR correlations indicating less than 3%. Provided that site preparation is conducted in accordance with the guidelines in the report, and any fill is placed and compacted to 100% standard maximum dry density at SOMC, a recommended design CBR of 3.5% is adopted for the design.
Two design traffic scenarios are considered, one for a lightly trafficked pavement areas with nominal design traffic of 5×103 Equivalent Standard Axles (ESA) and one for limited heavy vehicle and bus access roads of 2.5×105 Equivalent Standard Axles (ESA) assuming the following:
Report on Geotechnical Investigation Junee Correctional Centre
14 September 2016 Cardno 13
> 50 year design period
> Standard heavy vehicle axle loadings i.e. no overloaded vehicles
> Average of 2 heavy vehicles per day (4 heavy vehicle movements, entry and exit)
Where traffic data varies from the information provided in this report, review of pavement design may be required.
4.7.2 Preliminary Pavement Compositions
The following Table 4-2 provides preliminary pavement thicknesses for the assumed road traffic loading. Pavement designs are determined in accordance with Austroads AGPT02-12 Guide to Pavement Technology Part 2: Pavement Structural Design [8].
Table 4-2 Preliminary pavement compositions
Road Category Light Vehicle Only Access Roads
Wearing Surface 14/7mm ‘double/double’ seal over prime
30 mm AC10(1) over primer seal
Basecourse 100 mm 150 mm
Subbase (2) 180 mm 250 mm
Total thickness 280 mm 430 mm
Subgrade replacement (3) (3)
Notes to table: (1) Dense Graded Asphalt (DGA) with C320 binder (2) Extended beyond the rear face of the kerb profile or shoulder. (3) Subgrade replacement is required in areas of low strength clay soils and additional subgrade replacement may be required for constructability depending on climatic conditions prior to and during construction.
4.7.3 Materials and Compaction Specification
Pavement materials and compaction requirements for new pavement construction shall conform to the construction specifications and the following requirements.
Table 4-3 Pavement material specification and compaction requirements
Pavement Course Material Specification Compaction Requirements
Wearing Course Sprayed Seal or Asphaltic Concrete

Subgrade or subgrade replacement
CBR > 3.5% Min 100% Standard (AS1289 5.1.1)
4.7.4 Subsoil Drainage
Subsoil drainage is required at subgrade level along both sides of constructed pavements where the road is in cut, or on the high side of the road where boxed construction is utilised or the road is constructed on grade.
The subgrade shall be constructed with sufficient cross fall (a minimum of 3%) to assist with any moisture entering the pavement not becoming trapped. The drains shall be located below or behind the kerb to intercept any moisture ingress from outside and within the road alignment.
Report on Geotechnical Investigation Junee Correctional Centre
14 September 2016 Cardno 14
Subsoil drainage is particularly important in roads that are heavily trafficked or areas where landscaped areas are located adjacent the pavement as moisture ingress from watering will consistently wet the pavement materials potentially leading to premature deformation and pavement failure.
4.7.5 Subgrade Preparation
Subgrades shall be prepared with consideration to the following general recommendations:
> Ripping of rock where encountered at subgrade level is required to a minimum depth of 300 mm below subgrade formation level. Compaction of the ripped rock shall be to minimum subgrade compaction requirements.
> Elimination of abrupt changes between subgrade conditions, such as transition from rock to soil subgrade, by methods such as selective grading or mixing of material to provide a transition between material types, and moisture/density control of subgrade compaction.
> Proof rolling of the exposed subgrade with a heavy (minimum 12 tonne static) roller with any soft or weak areas detected to be excavated and replaced with a suitable compacted fill or subgrade replacement. To prevent zones of variable permeability, which may trap moisture and lead to subgrade deformation, material of similar consistency to the subgrade shall be utilised where localised replacement is required.
> Compaction of the subgrade filling or select shall be to a minimum dry density ratio of 100% Standard Compaction (AS 1289 Clause 5.1.1) in layers of not greater than 200 mm and generally between SOMC and 3% dry i.e. -3% of SOMC to SOMC.
> Protection of the subgrade to prevent any excessive wetting or drying.
> Formation of the pavement in accordance with the pavement design and specifications.
It is recommended that trafficking of the subgrade be minimised or avoided (where possible) during construction to prevent the permanent deformation of the subgrade. The boxed road alignment shall not be used as a haul road during construction, with footpath areas outside the road alignment offering alternate areas for construction traffic.
4.7.6 Construction Inspections
The subgrade will require inspection by an experienced geotechnical consultant after boxing out or filling to design subgrade level. The purpose of inspections is to confirm design parameters, assess the suitability of the subgrade to support the pavement and delineate areas, which may require subgrade replacement, and areas requiring remedial treatment prior to rehabilitation.

Explanatory Notes The methods of description and classification of soils and rocks used in this report are based on Australian Standard AS1726-1993 Geotechnical Site Investigations. Material descriptions are deduced from field observation or engineering examination, and may be appended or confirmed by in situ or laboratory testing. The information is dependent on the scope of investigation, the extent of sampling and testing, and the inherent variability of the conditions encountered.
Subsurface investigation may be conducted by one or a combination of the following methods.
Method
Test Pitting: excavation/trench BH Backhoe bucket EX Excavator bucket X Existing excavation Natural Exposure: existing natural rock or soil exposure Manual drilling: hand operated tools HA Hand Auger Continuous sample drilling PT Push tube Hammer drilling AH Air hammer AT Air track Spiral flight auger drilling AS Large diameter short spiral auger AD/V Continuous spiral flight auger: V-Bit AD/T Continuous spiral flight auger: TC-Bit Hollow flight auger drilling HFA Continuous hollow flight auger Rotary non-core drilling WS Washbore (mud drilling) RR Rock roller Rotary core drilling HQ 63mm diamond-tipped core barrel NMLC 52mm diamond-tipped core barrel NQ 47mm diamond-tipped core barrel Concrete coring DT Diatube
Sampling is conducted to facilitate further assessment of selected materials encountered.
Sampling method
Disturbed sampling B Bulk disturbed sample D Disturbed sample ES Environmental soil sample Undisturbed sampling SPT Standard Penetration Test sample U Thin wall tube ‘undisturbed’ sample Water samples EW Environmental water sample
Field testing may be conducted as a means of assessment of the in situ conditions of materials.
Field testing
SPT Standard Penetration Test (blows/150mm) HP/PP Hand/Pocket Penetrometer Dynamic Penetrometers (generally blows/150mm) DCP Dynamic Cone Penetrometer PSP Perth Sand Penetrometer MC Moisture Content VS Vane Shear PBT Plate Bearing Test PID Photo Ionization Detector
If encountered, refusal (R) or virtual refusal (VR) of SPT or dynamic penetrometers may be noted.
The quality of the rock can be assessed be the degree of fracturing and the following.
Rock quality description
TCR Total Core Recovery (%)
(length of core recovered divided by the length of core run)
RQD Rock Quality Designation (%)
(sum of axial lengths of core greater than 100mm long divided by the length of core run)
Notes on groundwater conditions encountered may include.
Groundwater
Not Encountered Excavation is dry in the short term Not Observed Water level observation not possible Seepage Water seeping into hole Inflow Water flowing/flooding into hole
Perched groundwater may result in a misleading indication of the depth to the true water table. Groundwater levels are also likely to fluctuate with variations in climatic and site conditions.
Notes on the stability of excavations may include.
Excavation conditions
Stable No obvious/gross short term instability noted Spalling Material falling into excavation (minor/major) Unstable Collapse of the majority, or one or more face
of the excavation
Explanatory Notes: General Soil Description The methods of description and classification of soils used in this report are based on Australian Standard AS1726-1993 Geotechnical Site Investigations. In practice, a material is described as a soil if it can be remoulded by hand in its field condition or in water. The dominant component is shown in upper case, with secondary components in lower case. In general descriptions cover: soil type, plasticity or particle size/shape, colour, strength or density, moisture and inclusions.
In general, soil types are classified according to the dominant particle on the basis of the following particle sizes.
Soil Classification Particle Size
CLAY < 0.002mm SILT 0.002mm 0.075mm SAND fine 0.075mm to 0.2mm medium 0.2mm to 0.6mm coarse 0.6mm to 2.36mm GRAVEL fine 2.36mm to 6mm medium 6mm to 20mm coarse 20mm to 63mm COBBLES 63mm to 200mm BOULDERS > 200mm
Soil types are qualified by the presence of minor components on the basis of field examination or the particle size distribution.
Description Percentage of minor component
Trace < 5% in coarse grained soils < 15% in fine grained soils With 5% to 12% in coarse grained soils 15% to 30% in fine grained soils
The strength of cohesive soils is classified by engineering assessment or field/laboratory testing as follows.
Strength Symbol Undrained shear strength
Very Soft VS < 12kPa Soft S 12kPa to 25kPa Firm F 25kPa to 50kPa Stiff St 50kPa to 100kPa Very Stiff VSt 100kPa to 200kPa Hard H > 200kPa
Cohesionless soils are classified on the basis of relative density as follows.
Relative Density Symbol Density Index
Very Loose VL < 15% Loose L 15% to 35% Medium Dense MD 35% to 65% Dense D 65% to 85% Very Dense VD > 85%
The moisture condition of soil is described by appearance and feel and may be described in relation to the Plastic Limit (PL) or Optimum Moisture Content (OMC).
Moisture condition and description
Dry Cohesive soils: hard, friable, dry of plastic limit. Granular soils: cohesionless and free-running
Moist Cool feel and darkened colour: Cohesive soils can be moulded. Granular soils tend to cohere
Wet Cool feel and darkened colour: Cohesive soils usually weakened and free water forms when handling. Granular soils tend to cohere
The plasticity of cohesive soils is defined as follows.
Plasticity Liquid Limit
Low plasticity ≤ 35% Medium plasticity > 35% ≤ 50% High plasticity > 50%
The structure of the soil may be described as follows.
Zoning Description
Layer Continuous across exposure or sample Lens Discontinuous layer (lenticular shape) Pocket Irregular inclusion of different material
The structure of soil layers may include: defects such as softened zones, fissures, cracks, joints and root-holes; and coarse grained soils may be described as strongly or weakly cemented.
The soil origin may also be noted if possible to deduce.
Soil origin and description
Fill Man-made deposits or disturbed material Topsoil Material affected by roots and root fibres Colluvial Transported down slopes by gravity Aeolian Transported and deposited by wind Alluvial Deposited by rivers Lacustrine Deposited by lakes Marine Deposits in beaches, bays and estuaries Residual Developed on weathered rock
The origin of the soil generally cannot be deduced on the appearance of the material only and may be determined based on further geological evidence or other field observation.
Explanatory Notes: General Rock Description The methods of description and classification of rocks used in this report are based on Australian Standard AS1726-1993 Geotechnical Site Investigations. In practice, if a material cannot be remoulded by hand in its field condition or in water, it is described as a rock. In general, descriptions cover: rock type, grain size, structure, colour, degree of weathering, strength, minor components or inclusions, and where applicable, the defect types, shape, roughness and coating/infill.
Sedimentary rock types are generally described according to the predominant grain size as follows.
Rock Type Description
CONGLOMERATE Rounded gravel sized fragments (>2mm) cemented in a finer matrix
SANDSTONE Sand size particles defined by the following grain sizes: fine 0.06mm to 0.2mm medium 0.2mm to 0.6mm coarse 0.6mm to 2mm
SILTSTONE Predominately silt sized particles SHALE Fine particles (silt or clay) and
fissile CLAYSTONE Predominately clay sized particles
The classification of rock weathering is described based on definitions in AS1726 and summarised as follows.
Term and symbol Definition
Residual Soil
RS Soil developed on rock with the mass structure and substance of the parent rock no longer evident
Extremely weathered
XW Weathered to such an extent that the rock has ‘soil-like’ properties
Distinctly weathered
DW The strength is usually changed and may be highly discoloured. Porosity may be increased by leaching, or decreased due to deposition in pores
Slightly weathered
SW Slightly discoloured; little or no change of strength from fresh rock
Fresh Rock FR The rock shows no sign of decomposition or staining
The rock material strength can be defined based on the point load index as follows.
Term and symbol Point Load Index Is50
Extremely low EL < 0.03MPa Very Low VL 0.03MPa to 0.1MPa Low L 0.1MPa to 0.3MPa Medium M 0.3MPa to 1MPa High H 1MPa to 3MPa Very High VH 3MPa to 10MPa Extremely High EH > 10MPa
It is important to note that the rock material strength as above is distinct from the rock mass strength which can be significantly weaker due to the effect of defects.
A preliminary assessment of rock strength may be made using the field guide detailed in AS1726, and this is conducted in the absence of point load testing.
The defect spacing and bedding thickness, measured normal to defects of the same set or bedding, is described as follows.
Definition Defect Spacing
Thinly laminated < 6mm Laminated 6mm to 20mm Very thinly bedded 20mm to 60mm Thinly bedded 60mm to 0.2m Medium bedded 0.2m to 0.6m Thickly bedded 0.6m to 2m Very thickly bedded > 2m
Terms for describing rock and defects are as follows.
Terms
Joint JT Sheared zone SZ Bed Parting BP Sheared surface SS Contact CO Seam SM Dyke DK Crushed Seam CS Decomposed Zone DZ Infilled Seam IS Fracture FC Foliation FL Fracture Zone FZ Vein VN
The shape and roughness of defects in the rock mass are described using the following terms.
Planarity Roughness
Planar PR Very Rough VR Curved CU Rough RF Undulating U Smooth S Irregular IR Polished POL Stepped ST Slickensides SL
The coating or infill associated with defects in the rock mass are described as follows.
Definition Description
Clean No visible coating or infilling Stain No visible coating or infilling; surfaces
discoloured by mineral staining Veneer Visible coating or infilling of soil or mineral
substance (<1mm). If discontinuous over the plane; patchy veneer
Coating Visible coating or infilling of soil or mineral substance (>1mm)

SE155905 R0METHOD SUMMARY
METHOD METHODOLOGY SUMMARY
The test is carried out by drying (at either 40°C or 105°C) a known mass of sample in a weighed evaporating
basin. After fully dry the sample is re-weighed. Samples such as sludge and sediment having high percentages of
moisture will take some time in a drying oven for complete removal of water.
AN002
A portion of sample is digested with nitric acid to decompose organic matter and hydrochloric acid to complete the
digestion of metals. The digest is then analysed by ICP OES with metals results reported on the dried sample
basis. Based on USEPA method 200.8 and 6010C.
AN040/AN320
A portion of sample is digested with Nitric acid to decompose organic matter and Hydrochloric acid to complete the
digestion of metals and then filtered for analysis by ASS or ICP as per USEPA Method 200.8.
AN040
pH in Soil Sludge Sediment and Water: pH is measured electrometrically using a combination electrode and is
calibrated against 3 buffers purchased commercially. For soils, an extract with water is made at a ratio of 1:2 and
the pH determined and reported on the extract after 1 hour extraction (pH 1:2) or after 1 hour extraction and
overnight aging (pH (1:2) aged). Reference APHA 4500-H+.
AN101
Conductivity and TDS by Calculation: Conductivity is measured by meter with temperature compensation and is
calibrated against a standard solution of potassium chloride. Conductivity is generally reported as µmhos /cm or
µS/cm @ 25°C. For soils, an extract with water is made at a ratio of 1:5 and the EC determined and reported on
the extract, or calculated back to the as-received sample. Salinity can be estimated from conductivity using a
conversion factor, which for natural waters, is in the range 0.55 to 0.75. Reference APHA 2510 B.
AN106
Resistivity of the extract is reported on the extract basis and is the reciprocal of conductivity. Salinity and TDS can
be calculated from the extract conductivity and is reported back to the soil basis.
AN106
Exchangeable Cations, CEC and ESP: Soil sample is extracted in 1M Ammonium Acetate at pH=7 (or 1M
Ammonium Chloride at pH=7) with cations (Na, K, Ca & Mg) then determined by ICP OES/ICP MS and reported as
Exchangeable Cations. For saline soils, these results can be corrected for water soluble cations and reported as
Exchangeable cations in meq/100g or soil can be pre-treated (aqueous ethanol/aqueous glycerol) prior to
extraction. Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) is the sum of the exchangeable cations in meq/100g.
AN122
The Exchangeable Sodium Percentage (ESP) is calculated as the exchangeable sodium divided by the CEC (all in
meq/100g) times 100.
ESP can be used to categorise the sodicity of the soil as below :
ESP < 6% non-sodic
ESP 6-15% sodic
ESP >15% strongly sodic
Method is refernced to Rayment and Higginson, 1992, sections 15D3 and 15N1.-
AN122
Anions by Ion Chromatography: A water sample or extract is injected into an eluent stream that passes through the
ion chromatographic system where the anions of interest ie Br, Cl, NO2, NO3 and SO4 are separated on their
relative affinities for the active sites on the column packing material. Changes to the conductivity and the
UV-visible absorbance of the eluent enable identification and quantitation of the anions based on their retention
time and peak height or area. APHA 4110 B
AN245
Mercury by Cold Vapour AAS in Soils: After digestion with nitric acid, hydrogen peroxide and hydrochloric acid ,
mercury ions are reduced by stannous chloride reagent in acidic solution to elemental mercury. This mercury
vapour is purged by nitrogen into a cold cell in an atomic absorption spectrometer or mercury analyser .
Quantification is made by comparing absorbances to those of the calibration standards. Reference APHA
3112/3500
AN312
OC and OP Pesticides by GC-ECD: The determination of organochlorine (OC) and organophosphorus (OP)
pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in soils, sludges and groundwater. (Based on USEPA methods
3510, 3550, 8140 and 8080.)
AN400
Total Recoverable Hydrocarbons: Determination of Hydrocarbons by gas chromatography after a solvent
extraction. Detection is by flame ionisation detector (FID) that produces an electronic signal in proportion to the
combustible matter passing through it. Total Recoverable Hydrocarbons (TRH) are routinely reported as four
alkane groupings based on the carbon chain length of the compounds: C6-C9, C10-C14, C15-C28 and C29-C36
and in recognition of the NEPM 1999 (2013), >C10-C16 (F2), >C16-C34 (F3) and >C34-C40 (F4). F2 is reported
directly and also corrected by subtracting Naphthalene ( from VOC method AN433) where available.
AN403
Additionally, the volatile C6-C9 fraction may be determined by a purge and trap technique and GC /MS because of
the potential for volatiles loss. Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) follows the same method of analysis after
silica gel cleanup of the solvent extract. Aliphatic/Aromatic Speciation follows the same method of analysis after
fractionation of the solvent extract over silica with differential polarity of the eluent solvents .
AN403
The GC/FID method is not well suited to the analysis of refined high boiling point materials (ie lubricating oils or
greases) but is particularly suited for measuring diesel, kerosene and petrol if care to control volatility is taken. This
method will detect naturally occurring hydrocarbons, lipids, animal fats, phenols and PAHs if they are present at
sufficient levels, dependent on the use of specific cleanup /fractionation techniques. Reference USEPA 3510B,
8015B.

SE155905 R0METHOD SUMMARY
(SVOCs) including OC, OP, PCB, Herbicides, PAH, Phthalates and Speciated Phenols (etc) in soils, sediments
and waters are determined by GCMS/ECD technique following appropriate solvent extraction process (Based on
USEPA 3500C and 8270D).
AN420
SVOC Compounds: Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) including OC, OP, PCB, Herbicides, PAH,
Phthalates and Speciated Phenols in soils, sediments and waters are determined by GCMS /ECD technique
following appropriate solvent extraction process (Based on USEPA 3500C and 8270D).
AN420
VOCs and C6-C9 Hydrocarbons by GC-MS P&T: VOC`s are volatile organic compounds. The sample is presented
to a gas chromatograph via a purge and trap (P&T) concentrator and autosampler and is detected with a Mass
Spectrometer (MSD). Solid samples are initially extracted with methanol whilst liquid samples are processed
directly. References: USEPA 5030B, 8020A, 8260.
AN433
Qualitative identification of chrysotile, amosite and crocidolite in bulk samples by polarised light microscopy (PLM)
in conjunction with dispersion staining (DS). AS4964 provides the basis for this document. Unequivocal
identification of the asbestos minerals present is made by obtaining sufficient diagnostic `clues`, which provide a
reasonable degree of certainty, dispersion staining is a mandatory `clue` for positive identification. If sufficient
`clues` are absent, then positive identification of asbestos is not possible. This procedure requires removal of
suspect fibres/bundles from the sample which cannot be returned.
AN602
Fibres/material that cannot be unequivocably identified as one of the three asbestos forms, will be reported as
unknown mineral fibres (umf).
AN602
AS4964.2004 Method for the Qualitative Identification of Asbestos in Bulk Samples, Section 8.4, Trace Analysis
Criteria, Note 4 states:"Depending upon sample condition and fibre type, the detection limit of this technique has
been found to lie generally in the range of 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 10,000 parts by weight, equivalent to 1 to 0.1 g/kg."
AN602
The sample can be reported “no asbestos found at the reporting limit of 0.1 g/kg” (<0.01%w/w) where AN602
section 4.5 of this method has been followed, and if-
(a) no trace asbestos fibres have been detected (i.e. no ‘respirable’ fibres):
(b) the estimated weight of non-respirable asbestos fibre bundles and/or the estimated weight of asbestos in
asbestos-containing materials are found to be less than 0.1g/kg: and
(c) these non-respirable asbestos fibre bundles and/or the asbestos containing materials are only visible under
stereo-microscope viewing conditions.

Samples analysed as received.
Solid samples expressed on a dry weight basis.
Where "Total" analyte groups are reported (for example, Total PAHs, Total OC Pesticides) the total will be calculated as the sum of the individual
analytes, with those analytes that are reported as <LOR being assumed to be zero. The summed (Total) limit of reporting is calculated by summing
the individual analyte LORs and dividing by two. For example, where 16 individual analytes are being summed and each has an LOR of 0.1 mg/kg,
the "Totals" LOR will be 1.6 / 2 (0.8 mg/kg). Where only 2 analytes are being summed, the " Total" LOR will be the sum of those two LORs.
Some totals may not appear to add up because the total is rounded after adding up the raw values.
If reported, measurement uncertainty follow the ± sign after the analytical result and is expressed as the expanded uncertainty calculated using a
coverage factor of 2, providing a level of confidence of approximately 95%, unless stated otherwise in the comments section of this report.
Results reported for samples tested under test methods with codes starting with ARS -SOP, radionuclide or gross radioactivity concentrations are
expressed in becquerel (Bq) per unit of mass or volume or per wipe as stated on the report. Becquerel is the SI unit for activity and equals one
nuclear transformation per second.
Note that in terms of units of radioactivity:
a. 1 Bq is equivalent to 27 pCi
b. 37 MBq is equivalent to 1 mCi
For results reported for samples tested under test methods with codes starting with ARS -SOP, less than (<) values indicate the detection limit for
each radionuclide or parameter for the measurement system used. The respective detection limits have been calculated in accordance with ISO
11929.

METHOD METHODOLOGY SUMMARY
METHOD SUMMARY
Qualitative identification of chrysotile, amosite and crocidolite in bulk samples by polarised light microscopy (PLM)
in conjunction with dispersion staining (DS). AS4964 provides the basis for this document. Unequivocal
identification of the asbestos minerals present is made by obtaining sufficient diagnostic `clues`, which provide a
reasonable degree of certainty, dispersion staining is a mandatory `clue` for positive identification. If sufficient
`clues` are absent, then positive identification of asbestos is not possible. This procedure requires removal of
suspect fibres/bundles from the sample which cannot be returned.
AN602
Fibres/material that cannot be unequivocably identified as one of the three asbestos forms, will be reported as
unknown mineral fibres (umf).
AN602
AS4964.2004 Method for the Qualitative Identification of Asbestos in Bulk Samples , Section 8.4, Trace Analysis
Criteria, Note 4 states:"Depending upon sample condition and fibre type, the detection limit of this technique has
been found to lie generally in the range of 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 10,000 parts by weight, equivalent to 1 to 0.1 g/kg."
AN602
The sample can be reported “no asbestos found at the reporting limit of 0.1 g/kg” (<0.01%w/w) where AN602
section 4.5 of this method has been followed, and if-
(a) no trace asbestos fibres have been detected (i.e. no ‘respirable’ fibres):
(b) the estimated weight of non-respirable asbestos fibre bundles and/or the estimated weight of asbestos in
asbestos-containing materials are found to be less than 0.1g/kg: and
(c) these non-respirable asbestos fibre bundles and/or the asbestos containing materials are only visible under
stereo-microscope viewing conditions.

FOOTNOTES
Amosite - Brown Asbestos
Chrysotile - White Asbestos
Crocidolite - Blue Asbestos
Amphiboles - Amosite and/or Crocidolite
(In reference to soil samples only) This report does not comply with the analytical reporting recommendations in the Western Australian Department
of Health Guidelines for the Assessment and Remediation and Management of Asbestos Contaminated sites in Western Australia - May 2009.
Sampled by the client.
Where reported: 'Asbestos Detected': Asbestos detected by polarised light microscopy, including dispersion staining.
Where reported: 'No Asbestos Found': No Asbestos Found by polarised light microscopy, including dispersion staining.
Where reported: 'UMF Detected': Mineral fibres of unknown type detected by polarised light microscopy, including dispersion staining. Confirmation
by another independent analytical technique may be necessary.
Even after disintegration it can be very difficult, or impossible, to detect the presence of asbestos in some asbestos -containing bulk materials using
polarised light microscopy. This is due to the low grade or small length or diameter of asbestos fibres present in the material, or to the fact that very
fine fibres have been distributed intimately throughout the materials.

SGS holding time criteria are drawn from current regulations and are highly dependent on sample container preservation as specified in the SGS “Field Sampling Guide for
Containers and Holding Time” (ref: GU-(AU)-ENV.001). Soil samples guidelines are derived from NEPM "Schedule B(3) Guideline on Laboratory Analysis of Potentially
Contaminated Soils". Water sample guidelines are derived from "AS/NZS 5667.1 : 1998 Water Quality - sampling part 1" and APHA "Standard Methods for the Examination
of Water and Wastewater" 21st edition 2005.
Extraction and analysis holding time due dates listed are calculated from the date sampled, although holding times may be extended after laboratory extraction for some
analytes. The due dates are the suggested dates that samples may be held before extraction or analysis and still be considered valid.
Extraction and analysis dates are shown in Green when within suggested criteria or Red with an appended dagger symbol (†) when outside suggested criteria. If the sampled
date is not supplied then compliance with criteria cannot be determined. If the received date is after one or both due dates then holding time will fail by default.

SGS holding time criteria are drawn from current regulations and are highly dependent on sample container preservation as specified in the SGS “Field Sampling Guide for
Containers and Holding Time” (ref: GU-(AU)-ENV.001). Soil samples guidelines are derived from NEPM "Schedule B(3) Guideline on Laboratory Analysis of Potentially
Contaminated Soils". Water sample guidelines are derived from "AS/NZS 5667.1 : 1998 Water Quality - sampling part 1" and APHA "Standard Methods for the Examination
of Water and Wastewater" 21st edition 2005.
Extraction and analysis holding time due dates listed are calculated from the date sampled, although holding times may be extended after laboratory extraction for some
analytes. The due dates are the suggested dates that samples may be held before extraction or analysis and still be considered valid.
Extraction and analysis dates are shown in Green when within suggested criteria or Red with an appended dagger symbol (†) when outside suggested criteria. If the sampled
date is not supplied then compliance with criteria cannot be determined. If the received date is after one or both due dates then holding time will fail by default.

Surrogate results are evaluated against upper and lower limit criteria established in the SGS QA /QC plan (Ref: MP-(AU)-[ENV]QU-022). At least two of three routine level soil
sample surrogate spike recoveries for BTEX/VOC are to be within 70-130% where control charts have not been developed and within the established control limits for charted
surrogates. Matrix effects may void this as an acceptance criterion. Water sample surrogate spike recoveries are to be within 40-130%. The presence of emulsions,
surfactants and particulates may void this as an acceptance criterion.
Result is shown in Green when within suggested criteria or Red with an appended reason identifer when outside suggested criteria. Refer to the footnotes section at the end
of this report for failure reasons.

Duplicates are calculated as Relative Percentage Difference (RPD) using the formula: RPD = | OriginalResult - ReplicateResult | x 100 / Mean
The RPD is evaluated against the Maximum Allowable Difference (MAD) criteria and can be graphically represented by a curve calculated from the Statistical Detection Limit
(SDL) and Limiting Repeatability (LR) using the formula: MAD = 100 x SDL / Mean + LR
Where the Maximum Allowable Difference evaluates to a number larger than 200 it is displayed as 200.
RPD is shown in Green when within suggested criteria or Red with an appended reason identifer when outside suggested criteria. Refer to the footnotes section at the end of
this report for failure reasons.

Matrix Spike (MS) results are evaluated as the percentage recovery of an expected result, typically the concentration of analyte spiked into a field sub -sample during the
sample preparation stage. The original sample 's result is subtracted from the sub-sample result before determining the percentage recovery. The criteria applied to the
percentage recovery is established in the SGS QA/QC plan (ref: MP-(AU)-[ENV]QU-022). For more information refer to the footnotes in the concluding page of this report.
Recovery is shown in Green when within suggested criteria or Red with an appended reason identifer when outside suggested criteria. Refer to the footnotes section at the
end of this report for failure reasons.

Matrix spike duplicates are calculated as Relative Percent Difference (RPD) using the formula: RPD = | OriginalResult - ReplicateResult | x 100 / Mean
The original result is the analyte concentration of the matrix spike. The Duplicate result is the analyte concentration of the matrix spike duplicate.
The RPD is evaluated against the Maximum Allowable Difference (MAD) criteria and can be graphically represented by a curve calculated from the Statistical Detection Limit (SDL) and Limiting Repeatability (LR) using the formula: MAD = 100 x SDL / Mean + LR
Where the Maximum Allowable Difference evaluates to a number larger than 200 it is displayed as 200.
RPD is shown in Green when within suggested criteria or Red with an appended reason identifer when outside suggested criteria. Refer to the footnotes section at the end of this report for failure reasons.

① At least 2 of 3 surrogates are within acceptance criteria.
② RPD failed acceptance criteria due to sample heterogeneity.
③ Results less than 5 times LOR preclude acceptance criteria for RPD.
④ Recovery failed acceptance criteria due to matrix interference.
⑤ Recovery failed acceptance criteria due to the presence of significant concentration of analyte (i.e. the
concentration of analyte exceeds the spike level).
⑥ LOR was raised due to sample matrix interference.
⑦ LOR was raised due to dilution of significantly high concentration of analyte in sample.
⑧ Reanalysis of sample in duplicate confirmed sample heterogeneity and inconsistency of results.
⑨ Recovery failed acceptance criteria due to sample heterogeneity.
⑩ LOR was raised due to high conductivity of the sample (required dilution).
