Type: Civil and Marine Construction  

Location: Saskatchewan, Canada 

Description: A 15,000 linear foot cement-bentonite and soil-bentonite cutoff wall was constructed at the active solution Potash Mine site to create a continuous seepage barrier system around its tailings to contain brine and prevent migration into surrounding groundwater. The construction of the cutoff wall reduced the risk of brine impacting adjacent soils and groundwater, creating environmental compliance issues and potential disruption to ongoing operations.
