Fracture data taken from the excavated batters of the quarry was studied stereographically. It is concluded that the vertical batters are stable and will not suffer large scale planar failure.- Quarry floor foundation conditions are acceptable for the water treatment structure on berm EL120. Diamond core drilling along the edge of the EL 110 berm shows that foundation conditions on this berm require further examination and that some remedial treatment of the foundation may be required.
