Foundation Design for Rail Line Extension Atop Closed Coal Ash Pond
Brunner Island is a three-unit, coal-fired plant owned by PPL Generation, Inc., and located on the west bank of the Susquehanna River. The plant constructed a 130-car rail line extension and storage yard atop a closed coal ash pond. Geosyntec was retained to design and implement a test fill program, prepare and implement a field sampling program, and analyze and conduct preliminary analyses of foundation performance.
