PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Sacramento District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has an upcoming acquisition to establish a contract to mitigate a landslide located on the downstream right abutment of Pine Flat Dam, Piedra, California. The Pine Flat Project is located approximately 30 miles east of Fresno, California and is operated and maintained by the Corps of Engineers, Sacramento District. The Pine Flat Dam and Lake, and supplemental channel improvement work, were authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1944. The dam was completed by the Corps of Engineers in 1954, and the channel improvements were completed in 1976. The Pine Flat Power Plant Project was authorized by the Federal Energy Regulation Commission license (issued in 1979), and construction was completed by the Kings River Conservation District in 1984. This is a landslide located near the northerly abutment of Pine Flat Dam that requires mitigation. The landslide covers an area approximately 200 to 220 feet wide by 380 feet long (downslope) and is located on the south slope of Hughes Mountain. The limits of the landslide are shown on Figure 1. The depth of the landslide has been interpreted to be up to 80 feet below the ground surface. The direction of previous movements of the main body of the landslide is to the southeast, towards the dam. Records indicate the presence of relic instability at the location of the existing landslide prior to construction of the dam and that materials at the toe of the landslide mass were removed during excavations for the dam foundation. The landslide has been reactivated in the past after high rainfalls and construction to stabilize the landslide. Landslide mitigation will include; • Earthwork for the installation of tieback whalers, retaining wall backfill, surface drainage ditches and access roads. • Installation of tie-back anchors with surface whalers. (See Figure 2) • Construction of cast-in-place concrete and gabion-type retaining walls. • Instrumentation installation to evaluate the performance of the landslide and mitigation. The instrumentation will include load cells, survey monuments, inclinometers, and piezometers • Erosion Control installation including temporary and permanent gravel all-weather access roads, hydro-seeding, and rip rap dissipaters.
