A soil-bentonite slurry wall has the following characteristics: • Hydraulic conductivity, K = 1 x 10-7 cm/s. • 1 m wide and 20 m long, keyed into a confining layer which is at a depth of 12 ft • The upgradient water table is at 500 ft above MSL (mean sea level), and the water table immediately across the wall is at 490 ft above MSL. a. Make a sketch (cross-section) of this slurry wall, showing the water table levels, the depth of the confining layer, and label all important features. b. What is the flow rate through this barrier in L/d?
