Energy Systems Integration Facility Excavation Soil Stockpile
CX(s) Applied: B1.15
Date: 04/12/2011
Location(s): Golden, Colorado
Office(s): Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Golden Field Office

This proposed project is for the onsite deposition of excavated soil generated by the build-out of the Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF) building at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL) South Table Mountain (STM) Complex located in Golden, Colorado (Jefferson County). The proposed project includes transporting 42,000 cubic yards (CY) of excavated soil from Site Development Zone 4 (Central Campus) to a stockpile located within two zones: Site Development Zone 4 (Central Campus) and Site Development Zone 5 (Eastern Campus), The material would be spread over approximately five acres along the north side of the existing RSF II stockpile area and over 75 feet east of the centerline of the arroyo. The material would be placed similar to the existing grades and will be blended into the surrounded topography at the edges. Edges of the stockpile area would have at a minimum five to one slope but may vary to match topography.
