EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
I. INTRODUCTION
North Ogden Canyon Road is a primary roadway connection between the communities of North
Ogden City and Liberty in Weber County Utah. The roadway is approximately 4.7 miles long
and was constructed sometime before 1937. The roadway is 2-lanes cut into the southernly
facing hillside of North Ogden Canyon. This road is relatively busy due to commuter and
construction travel between the two communities. Traffic counting performed in June of 2018
have identified average daily traffic of 2,735 vehicles per day.
Due to the mountainous conditions of the roadway there are numerous existing hazards and
maintenance challenges that have been identified throughout the roadway. These conditions
include steep grades, tight curves, high speeds, narrow lanes with minimal or no shoulders, lack
of drainage diches, rock fall hazards, potential roadway stability concerns and general pavement
degradation.
In April 2018 Weber County Engineering selected Talisman Civil Consultants, LLC (TCC) and
Intermountain Geo-Environmental Services, Inc (IGES) to identify the hazards and propose
improvements to mitigate the hazards and improve the overall safety and ability to maintain the
roadway. To accomplish this task TCC and IGES have performed analysis in the following
areas:
• Drainage
• Pavement Analysis
• Roadway Geometry
• Rockfall
• Slope Stability
This report summarizes the hazard assessment and proposed mitigations for the North Ogden
Canyon Road analysis performed by TCC and IGES in 2018. This report will outline the
methodologies used to perform the analysis, provide results and recommendations, and identify
approximate construction costs for recommended improvements.
Due to the current conditions of the roadway, difficult mountainous grading, and geotechnical
hazards it is anticipated that funding will not be available to complete all recommended
improvements in a single project. We understand that funding for large roadway projects is
limited therefore TCC and IGES will work with Weber County to determine the improvement
projects that are the most effective based the availability of funding as funds become available.

II. METHODOLOGY
Drainage
The existing drainage conditions of the current roadway includes roadside ditches in some
segments, culvert crossings at primary low points, and a crowned road section. In many
locations throughout the roadway there is little to no space between the roadway and catch slopes
or near vertical rock faces. This causes stormwater runoff to gather along the edge of pavement.
This results in accelerated degradation of the pavement where stormwater saturates and erodes
subgrade below the pavements. In some locations minor low points cause stormwater runoff to
flow across the roadway to the downhill side which degrades pavements, carries debris into the
roadway, and generally results in a higher hazard roadway.
TCC utilized hydraulic/hydrologic modeling software to build existing and proposed models of
the drainage areas that are tributary to the roadway. These models were used to achieve the
following goals:
• Study the existing storm drain infrastructure of the North Ogden Canyon Road for the 10,
25, 50 and 100-year storms.
• Identify deficiencies in the existing stormwater conveyance infrastructure.
• Identify logical places for additional stormwater conveyance infrastructure i.e. drainage
ditches and culverts.
• Measure adequacy of proposed infrastructure improvements in conjunction with existing
infrastructure via the hydraulic models for the 10-year storm.
o Perform analysis of future infrastructure for 25, 50 and 100-year storms.
Improvement priorities were identified by performing model calculations for the existing model
at several different storm events (i.e. 1-year, 2-year, 5- year, 10- year). The areas that were
deficient during the 1-year storm event have been identified as the highest priority and those that
were deficient in a 10+-year storm events were considered the lowest priority. The analysis
identified need for additional culvert crossings at the confluence of existing catchment areas and
additional ditches on the uphill side of the roadway in some places.
TCC then prepared a proposed conditions model to assess the proposed improvements that were
identified in the existing system analysis. The proposed conditions model was developed to
confirm that proposed improvements are sufficient in mitigating up to a 25-year storm event
without undermining pavements, spreading into travel lanes or directing flow across the
roadway.
Drainage Recommendations:
The North Ogden Canyon Road has much of the existing culvert infrastructure located in logical
places to mitigate significant storm events. However, it lacks the adequate channelization to
collect and convey runoff to the existing culverts without undermining pavements and/or
spreading into or across travel lanes. To better mitigate storm flows TCC proposes the following
improvements along the North Ogden Canyon Road in order of importance:
2
North Ogden Canyon Road Hazzard Identification and Mitigations
1. Where needed, install roadside ditches along the uphill side of the road with a minimum
depth of 1.5’ and minimum span of 3’.
o Bypass construction of ditches that require significant earthwork (for example:
steep rocky faces).
2. Install additional 24” culverts along uphill side of the road at locations detailed in the
attached Exhibit 1B.
3. Remove obstructions that inhibit runoff from the downhill side of the road where
applicable (berms, barriers, etc.).
4. Grade cross slope of future roadwork such that storm flows are directed downhill off the
road.
TCC used the analysis described above to determine a priority of drainage improvements that
will allow the roadway to mitigate a 25-year storm event. The attached Exhibit 1A shows the
proposed drainage improvements located in on a roadway stationing basis and an estimate of
probable construction costs for each drainage related project. Exhibit 1B is a map showing the
location of each drainage improvement. For a more detailed understanding of the drainage along
North Ogden Canyon Road see the drainage report found in Section III of this document.
Exhibit 1A identifies 48 individual drainage improvements, lists the estimated cost, and
identifies priority as described above. The following is a summation of the improvements based
on priority:

Pavement Analysis
Existing pavements throughout North Ogden Canyons Road are in various states of degradation.
There are significant indications of maintenance activities throughout the alignment. These
indications include skin patches, pothole patching, evidence of previous overlays, and evidence
of horizontal alignment adjustments. Despite these maintenance efforts, pavements exhibit
significant cracking, pavement oxidation, aggregate polishing, rutting, de-laminations and
potholes. This evidence suggests that the overall maintenance of the pavements throughout the
roadway has been difficult for some time.
On July 16 and 17, 2018, TCC completed an evaluation of the current pavement conditions for
the North Ogden Canyon Road. An engineer from TCC inspected the roadway and performed a
pavement condition rating throughout the roadway. TCC identified and rated 26 roadway
sections based on the following objectives:
• Identify the current pavement condition of contiguous segments of roadway with similar
defects.
• Identify cost effective rehabilitations for pavements which fall below acceptable
condition ratings.
• Rate each section of pavement with a low, medium/low, medium, medium/high, or high
priority to assist in the determination of project funding.
The methodology of the program consists of the following steps:
1. Evaluate the roadway to identify specific sections of road with similar defects or distress.
2. Using an Asphalt Pavement Condition Rating Form to rate each identified defect.
3. Sum the defect rating scores and subtract the sum of defects from 100 to establish
condition rating for each section of pavement.
o The evaluation form selected for this program was based on standard evaluation
form produced by the Asphalt Institute Foundation.
4. Identify recommended mitigation based on the overall conditions rating of each segment.
The following is the recommended mitigations for each score range:

North Ogden Canyon Road Hazzard Identification and Mitigations
Pavement Recommendations:
The sections of roadway pavements that were evaluated along North Ogden Canyon Road
resulted in an average rating of 58.7 out of 100. This indicates that the overall roadway is in the
poor or fair condition. There are two sections with a rating below 40 which results in a
recommendation of reconstruction. However, there is only one section with an overall rating
above 90, excellent condition category. Therefore, the majority of pavements need to be
addressed with some maintenance.
The current state of pavements and the evidence of ongoing maintenance efforts is an indication
that there may be some underlaying problems with drainage and/or subsurface soil conditions.
As discussed in the previous paragraphs, significant drainage deficiencies have been identified
throughout the roadway. Furthermore, geotechnical explorations performed by IGES have
identified layers of clay beneath the pavement sections. These clay layers were likely imported
during initial construction of the roadway and are likely contributing to pavement cracking and
unstable subgrade. Therefore, IGES has provided recommendations for a 22” thick pavement
section with geofabrics to mitigate poor quality subgrade in replacement areas. Furthermore,
mill and overlay options should only be considered as short-term solutions with the intent to
rebuild all segments over time. See Section V for the IGES Geologic and Geotechnical
Evaluation, part 6.2 for pavement recommendations.
Exhibit 2A, attached, lists the segments of the pavements that have the same ratings and
mitigations. Exhibit 2A also identifies the pavement priorities and gives an estimated
construction cost for recommended improvements. Exhibit 2B is a map showing the location of
the pavement sections and recommended improvements based on roadway stationing. For a
more in-depth understanding of the pavement analysis performed see the North Ogden Canyon
Road Pavement Analysis Report 2018 located in the Section IV of this report.
Exhibit 2A identifies 26 individual pavement segment improvements, lists the estimated cost,
and identifies priority as described above. The following is a summation of the improvements
based on priority:

similar environments during 2018. There is no escalation or inflation to anticipate market conditions or passing of
time.

Roadway Geometry
The existing roadway geometry includes numerous tight turns, steep road grades, steep catch
slopes off the roadway, various guardrails and barriers, earthen berms and some vertical
retaining walls or rock faces. The posted speed for the roadway is 30 mph in most places and 20
mph through some curves, however, significantly higher speeds have been observed in some
locations. The analysis of the roadway geometry focused specifically on the parameters that
impact roadway safety.
TCC performed a roadway geometry analysis looking at the following design elements in
roadway safety:
• Shoulder width
• Curve speed
• Signage
• Guardrail
Design criteria was identified from the AASHTO Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and
Streets (Green Book), AASHTO Roadside Design Guide, and UDOT guardrail standards. The
entire roadway was checked against the design criteria put forth in the design guides and
deficient locations were marked and noted. Deficiencies include insufficient shoulder width,
clear zone, fore slope greater than 2:1, earthen berms within the clear zone, damaged guardrail
locations, damaged, missing or incorrect end treatments and missing signage.
Each roadway geometry deficiency was rated based on two primary factors.
1. Is the deficiency as simple fix, have and significant impact of safety, and/or is it
impacting the effectiveness of existing safety improvements (missing or damaged
guardrail posts)?
2. Is the hazard on a curve or straight section of the roadway?
3. Width of the existing shoulder and would a vehicle be able to make a maneuver to safety
in that distance.
The analysis shows that most of the roadway is either a medium or low rating scale. However,
simple improvements such as replacement of signage, repairs to guardrail and end treatments
have been identified as high priorities.
The following improvements are recommended to improve the roadway geometry and overall
safety:
• Remove downhill earthen berm.
• Widen shoulder and add guardrail
• Grading to minimize fore slopes that are greater than 2:1
• Replace damaged barriers throughout the roadway
• Install end treatments on existing guardrail
• Install speed limit signage matching the existing curves. Some of the existing curves are
rated for speeds less than they are signed.
• Install pedestrian crossing signage

Rock fall:
IGES performed rockfall analysis in the rock fall hazard areas A and B as defined by Weber
County Engineering. See Section V for IGES Geologic and Geotechnical Evaluation report,
Figure A-2 identifies study areas. On August 1st and 2nd of 2018 an IGES professional licensed
geologist evaluated, characterized, and mapped the rockfall potential throughout each study area.
Segments within each study area have been identified as having a relative rockfall hazard rating
of high, moderate, or low. The rockfall potential varies within each study area, however, IGES
identified that rockfall hazards is highest where colluvial deposits were exposed in road cuts,
followed by Tintic Quartzite bedrock and Maxfield Limestone bedrock.
Rockfall Recommendations:
Typical mitigations for rockfall hazards include scaling (loose rock removal), netting, barriers,
and collection ditches. However, due to the tight conditions, and steep slopes above the roadway
it is understood that methods which require additional roadway width are generally unfeasible.
Therefore, barriers and collection ditches have been eliminated from consideration. The
mitigations that have been identified as feasible include scaling and netting. Scaling efforts
require no specialized tools or equipment and can performed by Weber County staff. It should
also be performed on a periodic basis. This make pricing for scaling efforts difficult to
anticipate. Therefore, costs for scaling have not been included in the construction cost estimates.
Netting and scaling is recommended for most high hazard areas. The rockfall areas within Area
A is top priority and Area B is second priority.
Exhibit 4 lists the location of the Rockfall mitigations, hazard ratings, and the associated costs
for netting mitigations. For a map showing rockfall locations see Exhibit 3B.
Exhibit 4 identifies 45 individual rockfall mitigations, lists the estimated cost, and identifies
priority as described above. The following is a summation of the improvements based on
priority:
See Section V for a complete discussion of rockfall analysis, findings, and recommendations in
the IGES Geologic and Geotechnical Evaluation.

Slope Stability:
Slope stability analysis was concentrated to Study Area C as identified on Figure A-2 of the
IGES report. This area is referred to as the “tree-down” area. Historical data of this area shows
that the road was constructed across the head of a mapped landslide. Other observations such as
the inclined trees and excessive cracking at the downhill edge of the pavement also speak to the
potential for stability issues. Similar to other areas of the roadway, bore hole data collected in
the field found clay and organic materials in the fill material between 7 to 8 feet thick below the
roadway, the fill is relatively soft and does not appear to have been properly compacted.
The exploratory bore that was taken in the area suggests that the roadway was constructed to be
level and not sloping west to east. Based on the field data IGES believes that the embankment
and the pavement section are influenced by colluvial creep of high plasticity soils.
With only one exploratory bore in the area IGES did not have sufficient data for the subsurface
conditions to prepare a complete mitigation plan for the slope stability in Area C. The
preliminary information gathered does not appear to indicate a high potential for catastrophic
failure, but the slopes should not be considered stable. IGES recommends that the area be
monitored by topographic survey for at least one year to determine the rate of slope creep in
inches per year. If the creep is greater than 3-inches per year, IGES recommends an additional
study focusing on this area to determine what mitigation is appropriate for the rate of creep. The
costs of slope stability mitigation is very high, therefore, significant study should be performed
prior to any improvements in this area. Slope stability mitigations have not be identified nor are
costs included to mitigate the slope stability in Area C.
See Section V for a complete discussion of slope stability analysis, findings, and
recommendations in the IGES Geologic and Geotechnical Evaluation.

II. Conclusion
The analyses performed along North Ogden Canyon Road have shown that the roadway needs
improvements to improve the safety, travel conditions, maintenance activities, and protect
existing and proposed improvements. TCC realizes that the total improvements recommended
are costly and the total is greater than current funding. It is recommended that Weber County
should plan for yearly ongoing funding so that necessary improvements can be made over time.
The following is a summary of estimated construction cost for each priority level:

1.2 – Methodology
The documentation that was used to create the model is an assortment of surveyed utility
information, topographic information from USGS, and precipitation information from the National
Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
The hydraulic storm model produced in this study were performed using Bentley Haestad’s
SewerGEMS modeling software with inputs derived from ArcGIS information and Excel
calculations. The infrastructure layout for the hydraulic models was achieved by utilizing surveyed
CAD and GIS information based on the NAD 1983 Utah North State Plane coordinate system.
The parameters used to evaluate the existing and future capacity requirements of the storm drain
conveyance system are based on Weber County Municipal Code Title 40 – Storm Drainage, and
Weber County storm water runoff design guidelines. The storm drain conveyance system has been
divided into tributary areas of development infrastructure. No detention has been considered. See
Exhibits 01 and 02 in the Appendix.
• The Soil Conservation Service Method (commonly known as SCS or TR-55 Method) was
used for analyzing the hydrology of site.
• The basis of the curve number method is the empirical relationship between the retention
(rainfall not converted into runoff) and runoff properties of the watershed and the rainfall.
1
It accounts for most runoff producing watershed characteristics: soil type, land
use/treatment, surface condition, and antecedent moisture condition.
• Composite Curve Numbers (CN Values) were developed by reviewing impervious, and
pervious areas, and are based on poor mountain brush CN table values
Precipitation intensity data was obtained via NOAA Atlas 14 using a latitude and longitude
corresponding to the North Ogden Divide, Utah. The precipitation data was used to created SCS
Type II storm distribution hydrograph curves. The NOAA precipitation data utilized in the model
can be found in the Appendix, and in Table 1 below.

2.0 – Analysis
The following section summarizes the analysis of the existing and future conditions the North
Ogden Divide. An important general observation of the canyon is that any runoff west of the North
Ogden Divide Trailhead is directed west, and any runoff east of the Trailhead is directed east.
From herein, analysis of the canyon can be divided into two entities: West Drainage and East
Drainage. For a depiction, see Exhibit 03 in the Appendix.
There are 15 existing culverts, and 3 catch basins along the North Ogden Divide. 11 of the culverts
– and 2 catch basins are located in the West Drainage. 4 culverts and 1 catch basin are located in
the East Drainage. Catchment areas for existing storm drain infrastructure have been identified
and delineated. The location the existing culverts are logically implemented along the bottom of
natural washes. See Exhibit 01 in the Appendix. The road is located on the north side of the canyon,
and consequently, the catchment areas contributing to runoff are comprised of mountains north of

2
the road. The areas range from 1.75 acres to 886 acres. The catchment slopes are steep, varying
from 18% slopes to 57% and promote high volumes of runoff.
The four culverts along the East Drainage all occur along the uphill side of the road and are
connected by natural drainage ditches – that is ditches that appear to be formed by the natural flow
of stormwater runoff instead of being purposely constructed storm water mitigation infrastructure.
These natural ditches are not uniform along the length of the road but rather ebb and flows along
the natural flow of the storm runoff. Additional sporadic storm drain infrastructure such as drive
way culverts can be found on the eastern end of the road.
Eight of the eleven culverts within the West drainage are located on the uphill side of the road.
The sizes vary between 12” and 48”. There exists berms on the downhill side of the mountain
inhibiting flow down to the valley below. Three of the eleven culverts are located on the downhill
side of the mountain, typically a pipe embedded in a berm. The assumed purpose of the berms are
to direct storm flow to the culverts located on downhill side of the road. Furthermore, two catch
basins are embedded into the asphalt along concrete barriers on the downhill side of the road.
An analysis of the existing drainage channels has been performed. The results of this analysis are
to be used as the guide for the location prioritization of a future drainage channels.
Strategic positions for six additional 24” culverts were established in the hydraulic model. Existing
and proposed culverts are intended to be connected by open air “V-ditches” with a 1.5’ depth and
3’ span. The locations of the future culverts were determined by analyzing the natural topography
of the canyon and placing culverts at the confluence of natural drainage routes of the uphill
catchment areas and the road. The effort is made to bypass the majority of storm flow straight
down the mountain, with any remaining flow being directed downstream via a drainage ditch and
eventually discharged via a culvert. By implementing the drainage ditches on the uphill side of the
road, storm water runoff onto the road is avoided as much as possible.
The implementation of additional culverts required the delineation of new catchment areas for the
culverts and affect the catchment areas of the several existing culverts. Future catchment areas can
be seen in Exhibit 02 in the Appendix. All culverts and ditches have been modeled and are
intended to be implemented along the uphill side of the mountain. Ditches and or berms to direct
storm flows along the downhill side of the road are deemed unnecessary. However, some minor
grading on the downhill side of the road may be necessary.

3.0 – Results & Recommendations
The modeling results show that there are areas within the East and West drainage that are
ineffective at mitigating storm runoff. Because there is very little focused channelization to the
culverts, the existing culverts are underutilized; storm flows run onto the road and either continue
off-road down the mountain or are confined to the travel-way by a berm on the downhill side of
the road. An analysis has been performed to prioritize the locations that need drainage channels.
See Exhibit 04 in the Appendix. High priority locations are areas along the road that fail within a
1-year storm and need a channel as soon as possible. Medium Priority locations fail sometime
between a 2 and 10-year storm and require a channel after high priority areas have been completed,
while Low Priority locations are areas from which the existing conditions can handle at least a 10
year storm, and the construction of a channel is recommended, but not required.
The results of the model have shown that the 1.5’ deep and 3’ wide V-ditches implemented along
the uphill side of the road in conjunction with additional 24” culverts are adequate in mitigating
up to the 25-year storm flow. While deficient in some places, the proposed infrastructure is still
effective at mitigating the 50 and 100-year storm flows. See the Appendix for the full modeling
results of the future conditions.
3.3 – Recommendations
The North Ogden Divide has much of the existing culvert infrastructure located among logical
places to mitigate significant storm events. However, it lacks the adequate channelization to collect
and focus runoff to make the best use of the existing culverts. To better mitigate future storm flows
TCC proposes the following recommendations to storm drain infrastructure along the north Ogden
Divide in order of importance
1. Implement V-ditches along the uphill side of the road with a depth of 1.5’ and span 3’.
o Bypass construction of ditches that require significant earthwork (for example:
steep rocky faces).
2. Implement additional 24” culverts along up hill side of the road at locations detailed in
Exhibit 02 in the Appendix.
3. Remove obstructions that inhibit runoff from the downhill side of the road where
applicable (berms, barriers, etc…).
4. Grade cross slope of future roadwork such that storm flows are directed downhill off the
road.

Section IV
Pavement Analysis
NORTH OGDEN CANYON ROAD
PAVEMENT ANALYSIS
I. INTRODUCTION
On July 16 and 17, 2018, Talisman Civil Consultants (TCC) completed a survey of the current
pavement conditions for the North Ogden Canyon Road connecting Ogden to Eden, Utah. This
report describes our Methodology, Pavement Findings, Pavement Recommendations,
Maintenance Costs, and Associated Safety Factors.
II. METHODOLOGY
The basic methodology of the program consists of the following steps:
2. Using the Asphalt Pavement Condition Rating Form to rate each defect found,
add the rating scores and subtract the sum of defects from 100 to establish
condition rating for each section of pavement surveyed. The survey form selected
for this program was based on a simplified Asphalt Pavement Rating Form
produced by the Asphalt Institute. Asphalt Pavement Condition Rating Forms are
located in Appendix B.
3. Using general distress types, typical causes and solutions to categorize each
pavement condition into a rating system. Field identified pavement distresses are
assigned numerical values based on extent and severity.
4. Prioritizing pavement rehabilitation is based on overall rating, maintenance cost,
and safety of public.
Pavement Condition Categories
TCC has adopted a numerical scale that rates pavement from 100 (best condition) to 0 (worst
condition). A pavement with a rating of 100 will be newly placed asphalt and a pavement with a
rating of 0 will be an asphalt road with very little or no binder content, or essentially gravel.
Pavements conditions are categorized into 5 different conditions; excellent, very good, good,
poor to fair and rebuild condition. We have listed suggested rehabilitation techniques for each
pavement condition category:
2. Very Good Condition (80-89) – Pavements in this category are good candidates
for crack sealing and seal coat. There could even be a need for some minor
patching.
1
North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
3. Good Condition (60-79) – Pavements in this category are good candidates for
slurry seal (Type II). In this category, it is possible that some areas will need
minor patchwork with crack sealing prior to application of the slurry seal.
4. Poor to Fair Condition (40-59) – Pavements in this category are good candidates
for milling, tack coat and asphalt overlay. Pavements that score between 40-59
will have major raveling, block cracking, depressions, poor drainage, and
bumps/sags.

North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
During the pavement evaluation, TCC identified and rated 26 roadway sections. The pavement
management approach recommended for North Ogden Canyon Road has two objectives. First, to
cost effectively rehabilitate facilities which fall below acceptable condition ratings. Second, to
rate each section of road with a low, medium or high risk of safety to determine the priority of
projects for funding.
The most cost-effective approach is to maintain facilities at or above routine maintenance levels.
The cost will be 3 to 4 times less than rehabilitating facilities which slip into the overlay/patch or
reconstruction levels. Appendix C tabulates the Facility Maintenance costs based on Condition
Rating and Recommend Maintenance Strategy.
Maintenance strategies vary from area to area because each pavement section analyzed has its
own unique distresses and pavement uses. The following table summarizes the condition rating
score and maintenance strategy recommended for each section of pavement that was surveyed.
See Appendix D Survey Maps for the location and classification of all pavement areas analyzed.

Additional Recommendations
1. Where small areas of severe alligator cracking or drainage depression occur, we recommend
that the asphalt be saw cut, removed and patched before the overall recommended treatment
is applied to the rest of the asphalt surface. This strategy will reduce cost and extend the
useful life of the pavement. When considering this strategy, keep in mind replacement will
not be too far in the future and costs associated with replacement should be budgeted when
possible.
2. We recommend that a tack coat be applied between any existing and proposed asphalt
surfaces. Tack coating is critical to ensuring a strong bond forms between existing asphalt
and new asphalt. Without tack coat, new asphalt has the tendency to shrink and pull away
from existing asphalt causing cracking and eventually failure along the joint.
3. For catch basins that do not already have concrete collars, we recommend that circular
concrete collars be installed around them. It is sometimes difficult to achieve optimum
compaction around catch basins and other similar improvements therefore by using concrete
collars to facilitate load distribution around the structure and into the sub-grade.

III. CONCLUSION
The sections surveyed along the North Ogden Divide scored an average rating of 58.7 out of 100
putting the entire road in poor or fair condition with two sections scoring in the Rebuild
Condition category and only one section scoring in the Excellent Conditions category.
The poorest pavement sections were observed on the easterly sections of the roadway heading
into Liberty with much of the road needing immediate attention. Due to funding limitations
replacement and rebuild of the entire road is not feasible. TCC recommends using the priorities
established by this report to plan and budget for smaller pavement projects over the next few
years.

Shrinkage Occurs in areas subjected to repeated traffic loadings (wheel paths). Can
Cracks be a series of interconnected cracks in early stages of development.
Develops into many-sided, sharp-angled pieces, usually less than 0.3 meters (m) on
the longest side, characteristically with a chicken wire/alligator pattern, in later
stages. Must have a quantifiable area.
Rutting A rut is a longitudinal surface depression in the wheel path. It may have associated
transverse displacement.
Raveling Wearing away of the pavement surface caused by the dislodging of aggregate
particles and loss of asphalt binder. Raveling ranges from loss of fines to loss of
some coarse aggregate and ultimately to a very rough and pitted surface with
obvious loss of aggregate.
8
North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
Pot Holes Bowl-shaped holes of various sizes in the pavement surface. Minimum plan
dimension is 150 mm.
Polished
Aggregate Surface binder worn away to expose course aggregate.
Swell Swell is characterized by an upward bulge in the pavement’s surface. A swell may
occur sharply over a small area or as a longer, gradual wave. Either type of swell
can be accompanied by surface cracking. A swell is usually cased by frost action
in the subgrade or by swelling soil, but small swell can also occur on the surface of
an asphalt overlay over PCC (Portland Cement Concrete) as a result of a blowup in
the PCC slab.
Depressions Localized pavement surface areas with slightly lower elevations than the
surrounding pavement. Depressions are very noticeable after a rain when they fill
with water.
Weathering/ Oxidation (weathering) is the hardening and aging of the asphalt binder. Oxidation
The surface binder has worn away to expose coarse aggregate. This
condition will normally be found on plant mix pavement. Weathering usually
covers the entire surface.

Slurry A Slurry Seal is a cold mixed asphalt. It consists of a graded aggregate, a binder,
fines and additives. It is a hard-wearing surfacing for pavement preservation.
Slurry Seals are for sealing aged and raveled pavements, filling minor cracks,
restoring skid resistance and restoring aesthetic appeal. It may be used on
freeways, residential streets, parking lots, driveways and any area that needs the
pavement to be preserved.
Slurry Seals come in many different types. Different stone sizes give different
surface textures. Type I is fine and is for parking lots and runways. Type II is
coarser and general purpose it is used for all applications including arterial roads,
residential areas and highways. Type III is the coarsest and is used on freeways
and high-speed roads and industrial estates. Different types of aggregate will give
lighter or darker results. The famous Table Mountain black rock will give your
surfacing that new look all through its life. Slurry seals may be polymer modified
for longer wear and better resistance to traffic and cracking. This modification
includes latex rubber, crumb rubber and other polymers.
Slurry Seal protects and preserves, extending pavement life. This results in a
pavement that is better to drive on, look at and will cost less in the long run.
Micro
Surfacing Microsurfacing is a cold mixed asphalt. It consists of a graded aggregate, a binder,
fines and additives. It is a hard-wearing surfacing for pavement preservation and
rehabilitation. It is a sort of slurry surfacing but is specialized for situations where
very quick use, rut filling or extreme conditions of heat or cold are likely.
Microsurfacing is for the more specialized slurry jobs of rut filling, restoring
surface profile, heavy traffic or where very quick use is essential. Like night work
or freeways.
Microsurfacings are all polymer modified. Different stone sizes give different
surface textures. Type I is fine and is for parking lots and runways. Type II is
general purpose it is used for all applications including arterial roads and
highways. Type III is the coarsest and is used on freeways, rut filling and high
speed roads. Special mixes are used for rut filling and some applications for very
rapid traffic.
Microsurfacings may be polymer modified for longer wear and better resistance
to traffic and cracking. This modification includes latex rubber, crumb rubber and
other polymers.

North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
Chip Seal Chip sealing is one of the oldest methods and most successful of road surfacing.
In many countries it is used for high volume roads. In USA it is used for
pavement preservation and rehabilitation. A chip seal is an application of a binder
in the form of an emulsion or hot spray or sometimes cutback and an application
of an aggregate as close to single size as possible. The aggregate is the running
surface of road so factors of shape, grading, stone embedment and amount of
binder are critical. Other factors are application conditions and stone cleanliness.
Chip Seals are used for restoring skid resistance, protecting a surface from aging,
restoring a running surface, eliminating dust, sealing gravel pavements. Special
binder types can be used to treat reflection cracking.
Different stone sizes give different surface textures and are used for different
traffic situations these may range from sand, 7mm (1/4 inch), 10mm (about ½
inch), 14mm (about ½ inch) 20mm (about 4/5 ) and 25mm (1inch).
Binders are selected for the type of job. Binders may be emulsified asphalt or
other material, emulsified polymer asphalt, latex modified emulsified asphalt,
rejuvenating oil modified asphalt emulsions or hot applied binders with asphalt
rubber or polymers. Seal types include, sand seals for low traffic roads and paths,
reseals for existing pavements, modified seals for cracked pavements, multiple
coat seals for heavy traffic areas or where a smoother surface is required.
Chip Sealing is a three-stage process, after the surface has been prepared by
patching, crack filling (if required), a spray of binder is applied via a computer
controlled calibrated spray unit. Then a layer of chippings is applied using a
computer controlled and calibrated self-propelled chip spreader. The final
operation is several passes from multi tyred roller. The road is usually opened to
traffic after sweeping or may be opened to slow moving traffic almost
immediately.
Chip Seals protect, preserve, and extend pavement life. This results in a pavement
that is better to drive on, look at and will cost less in the long run.
Chip Sealing is a thin layer which is economic and will provide a lower cost than
a hot mix overlay for the same purpose.

Seal
Coating Seal Coating is a thin asphaltic treatment used to protect pavement surfaces from
UV radiation and oxidation. Seal coat may contain asphaltic or coal tar emulsion,
fillers, sand, polymer latex, fibers and pigments, depending on the application.
Seal coats are mostly for protecting a surface from aging. They are a thin layer
and work well as void fillers. They may be used for parking lots, walkways,
driveways, and roofing in some circumstances.
Seal Coats are very fine materials. They are applied as relatively low viscosity
mixtures with water so the resulting surface is very smooth. It is not intended for
fast traffic or where skid resistance is important.
Binders are selected for the type of job. Binders may be emulsified asphalt or coal
tar, emulsified polymer asphalt, latex modified emulsified asphalt, rejuvenating
oil modified asphalt emulsions or hot applied binders with asphalt rubber fibers or
polymers. Different types of aggregate will give lighter or darker results.
Seal Coating is applied via a purpose-built unit that sprays the material behind it
and spreads it in one motion. It may also be applied by squeegee. Surface
preparation is important. The surface must be sound as cracks will reflect back in
a short time. This means crack filling and patching first. It also means killing
weeds and cleaning oil spots first. Seal Coat may be applied over hotmix, slurry
or chip seal. The surface must be cured out before application
Seal coats make a smooth and attractive surface that resists aging and protects the
valuable pavement.
Seal Coat is a thin layer it is economic and will protect the pavement below.
Fog
Sealing Fog sealing is a method that is used to lock in chips in a chip seal or to coat a new
hot mix surface to lock in fines and fill surface voids. It is not used for aged
pavements usually for this a rejuvenation spray such as Styraflex™ ERA™ is
recommended.
Fog spray is used after a chip seal is laid or hot mix is laid. It is a temporary
protection to keep surface aggregate in place.
Fog spray is usually an ss-1 or css-1 emulsion diluted. Special types exist that
have rejuvenation oils co emulsified in the system. These types of specialty
systems may be applied to aged pavements. Usually a light covering of sand or
finer aggregate is applied.
42
North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
Emulsion is sprayed using a standard boot truck. The emulsion may or may not be
pre-diluted with water. In some applications a layer of fine sand may also be
applied.
Fog sealing will ensure early stone loss is reduced and will add life to the
pavement. In its rejuvenation forms it may be used for aged but sound pavements
where the surface is still intact. It will not repair cracks or fill potholes.
Crack
Sealing When pavements fail they often fail by cracking. This can be caused by aging and
embrittlement, low temperature effects, fatigue, or movements in the base caused
by shrinkage or exiting cracks below the pavement surface. In many situations the
best way to seal the surface again is by filling the cracks with an elastomeric
asphaltic compound. Generally cracks that are 7-15mm are candidates for crack
filling. Fatigue cracks are usually an intense pattern and more suited to overall
treatments like asphalt rubber chip seals or Cape Seals.
Crack sealants may be cold or hot pour. Cold crack sealants are emulsion based
and usually latex modified. They are suitable for smaller cracks that are not very
active. Such as age cracks. Hot pour crack fillers are generally crumb rubber or
SBS modified at high concentrations (25% and 12% respectively).
These materials are highly elastomeric and stretch and recover with the movement
of the crack.
1. The cracks are routed to remove debris and any weak material.
2. The cracks are cleaned with compressed air.
3. Crack sealer is poured or injected into the crack with a spray device.
4. The surface is finished with a shoe leveler or similar device on the spray wand.
5. The surface may be sanded , especially in the case of an emulsion crack filler.
Unwashed sand or grit is suitable.
Emulsion crack fillers must be fully cured before overlaying. Crack sealing
should not be overdone and a stage will be reached where there are too many
cracks to fill and a different treatment should be considered.
Crack Sealing seals cracks preventing water getting into the pavement. Applied at
the right time, crack sealing will prevent or delay pothole formation. It should
ideally be used with some sort of final overlay. Because cracks are a function of
stress relaxation in the pavement, i.e. they can open up in places other than the
filled areas. In instances where this is happening an overall membrane treatment
is indicated.

Tack
Coat Tack is an adhesive term that relates to a sort of stickiness. A tack bond is a
surface bond created by highly mobile or highly polar material. This is NOT what
is meant by a tack coat in asphalt technology. Sometimes erroneously called a
prime coat, a tack coat is used to ensure a good bond on the next layer. It need not
be done with asphalt emulsion. In some countries cutback asphalt (asphalt
dissolved in solvents such as kerosene or diesel) are used and even penetration
grade (200pen) asphalt is sprayed neat. The residual binder is the key to the
overall tack coat performance. However, retained solvent or over application can
have severe consequences.
The tack coat is a very thin surface. The tack coat is sprayed using a tack coat
spray system. It should be an even coat over the entire substrate to be overlaid.
Thus application rate is VERY important. If the surface is absorbent or open
textured more tack coat will be required. The aim is always to get a layer of
membrane about 0.1-0.2mm thick. The hot mixture placed on top should soften
the tack coat layer allowing it to partially fill surface voids in the hot mix so when
compaction occurs it becomes partially interlocked with the hot mix layer.If used
before a microsurfacing the tack coat will not be softened but the emulsion from
the microsurfacing will wet the tack coat creating an asphalt/asphalt bond. (Note
in most cases tack coat is NOT required for microsurfacing except where the
surface is a Portland cement concrete which is highly polished). Films of asphalt
have a stability based on their cohesion versus the thickness of the layer. To act as
a good tack coat the layer must not shear sideways under traffic. This means that
thick films have relatively less cohesion. So over applied tack coats will cause a
shear plane resulting is slippage or shear cracks in the hot mix. For stiffer
materials such as asphalt rubber or polymer modified emulsions the layers may be
thicker.
If the surface has been primed, i.e. it is a new construction a tack coat is not
necessary. If the surface has been stabilized with an asphalt based dust
suppressant a tack coat is not required.
Tack coats are not tacky and do not really coat. They are a bridge layer
between an existing surface and a new surface course. When the new surface
44
North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
course is a chip seal or slurry they will not be required. Where it is a hot mix
or cold mix a tack coat is critical.
Applications where tack Coats may not be needed: primed surfaces, stabilized
surfaces, chip sealed surfaces, membrane seals.
Rejuvenation
Seals When pavements get old they become brittle, this is a function of oxidation of the
binder and loss of volatiles. Bitumen is a mixture of materials from polar
asphaltenes to aliphatic oils. In between there are polar resins and aromatic and
napthenic oils. Together these other components are called maltenes. As asphalt
ages the resins are made into asphaltenes and the oils are lost or become
functionalized by oxidation. This creates an imbalance in the dispersion of the
asphalt and a colloidally unstable binder. This is also harder. Thus the flexibility
is reduced and cracks appear and potholes may form.
Before potholes can form, and when the binder is just losing the stone a
rejuvenation seal will help to restore the adhesion and life of the pavement
Enrichment of the surface and softening of brittle binder- replacing the maltenes
use rejuvenation seals to extend pavement life. They protect a surface from aging
and restore the running surface.
Some cracking can be tolerated as long as it’s not too wide or active. Styraflex
ERA™ (or comparable material) can handle transverse and longitudinal cracks
but not fatigue cracks.
Styraflex ERA™ (or comparable material) is the best material for rejuvenation
seals. This may be precisely formulated to give optimum penetration and suit the
climatic conditions that may be encountered. As rejuvenation seal materials
contain napthenic/aromatic oils excess can cause bleeding in summer or under
heavy traffic.
Rejuvenation Sealing is a multi-stage process, after the surface has been prepared
by sweeping. Then the emulsion is sprayed at 30-60C and sometimes scrubbed
into the surface with a broom to fill cracks and ensure penetration
Rejuvenation Seals can add 2-5 years to a pavement life, it seals up cracks and
creates a new running surface that may be overlaid or slurried.
45
North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
Rejuvenation Sealing is a thin layer it is economic and will provide a lower cost
than a re-seal with chip seal for the same purpose.
Scrub
Seals When pavements deteriorate they crack. Often crack sealing is done but
sometimes pavements can be so old and aged that crack sealing is not an option.
Scrub seals are a process by which a membrane of modified binder is pressed or
scrubbed into a cracked and aged surface. It's like an allover crack seal.
The resulting surface may be chipped, sanded and then made smooth with a slurry
or chip seal.
Cracked and aged pavements are ideal for scrub seal. Generally, highly active
cracks cannot be treated with emulsion systems; in this asphalt rubber scrub seals
applied hot are preferred.
Styraflex ERA™ (or comparable material) is the best material for scrub seals with
low activity transverse cracks like low temperature cracks seals. For larger and
active cracks AR scrub seals will be preferred. Application is similar.
Scrub Sealing is a multi-stage process, after the surface has been prepared by
sweeping. Then the binder is sprayed and scrubbed into the surface with a broom
or squeegee to fill cracks.
Scrub Seal is less expensive than reconstruction of old streets and can be
combined with slurry for a smooth long life result.
Hot Mix
& Overlay Hot mix asphalt is the premium product for pavement rehabilitation. Hot mixed
asphalt is a mixture of graded aggregates and asphalt. It is made in a purpose built
plant and hauled to site. The material is applied hot and compacted using rollers.
The material, depending on its design and the thickness laid can form a structural
layer. This makes it ideal for patching. It also can be compacted to a smooth and
almost impermeable surface making it quiet, high skid resistance and attractive
and pleasant to drive on.
Hot mix can be used to replace existing failed areas- full depth patching, filling
potholes, full overlays to restore level or structural integrity or over petromat
(fabric, geotextile) as a crack and surfacing treatment.
46
North Ogden Divide Pavement Management Report
Hot mixes vary in stone size from (25mm) 1 inch or so top size to 7mm (3/8 inch)
to sand mixes. The grading may be dense, open or gap graded with different
levels of fine fillers such as lime and fly ash. The binder may be asphalt of
various penetrations from 40 to 200 and this may be modified with crumb rubber,
polymers or other additives such as fibers. For patching and standard overlay
work a 30-90 pen binder and sense gradation is usually used.
Fabric-Petromat Overlays
Hot mix is the premium product and may be used for a range of applications. It is
a surfacing, a structural layer and a patching material.

The purpose of this study was to provide geotechnical recommendations as needed to support
rockfall mitigation and rehabilitation of North Ogden Canyon Road, commonly referred to as the
“North Ogden Divide” or “Divide Road”. It is our understanding that North Ogden Canyon Road
experiences regular rockfall events that require subsequent clean-up, and various portions of the
road are experiencing distress due to landsliding, inappropriate subsurface materials, inadequate
drainage, age, or some combination thereof. The scope of work performed as part of this rockfall
mitigation and road rehabilitation study included conducting site reconnaissance and geologic
field mapping of rockfall hazards, a subsurface geotechnical investigation, laboratory testing and
applicable engineering analyses.
The field investigation included the mapping of geologic contacts and fracture spacing and
orientation, and the drilling of shallow borings. Sonic drilling methods were used in an effort to
retrieve sufficient representative samples of the in-situ roadway bearing soils to support
pavement design. Priority areas for rockfall evaluation and distressed pavement were identified
by Weber County Road Department (County) and Talisman Civil Consultants (TCC) personnel.
Laboratory testing included the determination of water content, Atterberg limits, and particle
size distribution (PSD). Compaction and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests were performed on
the samples obtained from the Sonic boring explorations.
Engineering analyses included interpretation of the geological engineering data and laboratory
data, limit-equilibrium slope stability analyses and pavement rehabilitation design.
It is a frequent travel route for passenger vehicles, and the road is relatively busy with maximum
average weekday daily traffic (AWDT) estimated to grow as shown in Table 1-1 (Hales, 2015). It
provides the most direct route between the Ogden and Salt Lake Valleys for Weber High School
buses and other larger vehicles pulling trailers or hauling materials.

1.1.1 Maintenance
Weber County maintenance of the road includes rock and debris removal, snow removal and
periodic patching of damaged asphalt. The road has not had a full rehabilitation/repaving since
original construction (Weber County, 2018, personal communication). Periodic patching of
distressed pavement has prolonged the useful life of the road. Much of the perceived rockfall
hazard appears to come as a direct result of inadequate drainage controls which allow loose soils
and rock to wash into the travel lanes during heavy rainfall events. Inadequate drainage controls
are also considered to be at least one cause of road distress and slope instabilities in various parts
of the roadway.
The County has no plans to widen the road; however, they are planning to take necessary steps
to improve drainage controls, repair/replace pavement and stabilize slopes as funding allows.
The intent of this report is to help prioritize the work necessary within known problem areas so
that limited available funds can be effectively allocated where they are most imminently needed.
The scope of work in this study was limited to three specific areas of the roadway identified by
Weber County and as-shown in the aerial image displayed in Figure A-2. Areas A and B are
considered rockfall hazard areas, while Area C is considered to be a slope stability hazard area.
Existing pavement is distressed or cracked along the majority of the roadway, seven areas of
pavement distress were identified by TCC and Weber County personnel for geotechnical
exploration. Proposed improvements are to be implemented in these areas on the basis of the
findings of this geotechnical study.
No known previous geologic or geotechnical investigations are available for this project. Hales
Engineering (2015) incorporated projected traffic volumes for the North Ogden Divide into
master planning for roadways in the Ogden Valley.
Existing structures are present in the form of the current pavement section, box and pipe
culverts, as well as historical retaining walls, guardrails and occasional pull-outs. There is a
parking area near the crest of the road which supports recreational access to the North Ogden
Divide Trailhead.
A full-scale evaluation of distressed pavement areas was not performed by IGES. Shallow boring
explorations were completed in areas as directed by TCC and Weber County personnel to observe
and retrieve samples of the in-situ roadway bearing soils (representative subgrade) for support
of our pavement evaluations.
The existing retaining walls and gabion baskets were not specifically evaluated as part of this
study, but were observed by engineers during field mapping of the site. We assume that these
walls include mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) and reinforcement (i.e. geotextiles, geogrid).
The current condition of the Keystone wall (Sta: 88+50 – 94+70) and gabion baskets (east side
Sta: 194+00 – 196+50, 197+20-199+20, 199+60-201+05) that were located in rockfall hazard
areas, is generally adequate, with the wall verticality being maintained and very few
blocks/baskets out of place. However, in some areas (Sta: 56+00-58+00) it was apparent that the
single row of baskets is suspended above grade for a small distance because supporting soils have
been washed away due to poor surface drainage conditions. These baskets directly provide edge
support to the narrow roadway and significant pavement distress was observed in the area.
Photos of the distressed gabion baskets are shown on Figure B-37.
Surface-water-control ditches on the uphill side of the roadway are generally narrow and do not
appear to have been designed with the intent of capturing rockfall. These ditches were typically
measured to be approximately six-feet wide, with their effective width reduced as a result of
previous erosion and rockfall events. It is our understanding that sand, gravel and cobbles which
regularly enter the roadway are normally pushed to the side with snow plows in order to reopen
the roadway as soon as possible after rainfall/erosion events. Attempts with plows to move
materials to areas with wider shoulders may unavoidably cut into the toe of the slope, leading to
slope instability and further deposition into the ditches. Soil and rock allowed to accumulate in
the ditches limits the amount of water those ditches can convey and further reduces their
already-limited ability to capture future rockfall.
The condition of existing culverts was not investigated by IGES for this project. It is our
understanding that TCC will perform evaluation of these facilities as part of their work scope.
It is our understanding that with the exception of telecommunications, utilities do not use the
roadway as a corridor for services between Ogden Valley and the Salt Lake Valley.

4.0 FINDINGS
The terrain in the canyon is steep with moderate to tall cuts of as much as 100 feet high above,
and steep fill/natural slopes below the roadway. It is generally well-vegetated with the exception
of cut slopes in rock or soils where regular slope erosion and dry conditions prevent growth. By
virtue of its location on the hillside, the roadway crosses several drainage channels which
intermittently transmit water downslope to the canyon floor below.
No hazardous or toxic substances were observed or are known to exist along the roadway which
would affect the overall construction of the project.
Surface drainage problems do exist in several areas which are being studied for possible
mitigation by TCC. From a safety and maintenance perspective, erosion of slopes during large
rainfall events and snowmelt is a source of concern as soil and rocks are regularly deposited on
the roadway. This is especially pertinent in areas where road cuts expose colluvium and not
bedrock. Smaller materials (sand, gravel, and cobbles) are frequently present on the roadway,
but larger cobbles and boulders currently suspended in roadside cuts may also break loose if
sufficient erosion occurs within cuts that expose colluvium. Infiltration into fractures and
freeze/thaw processes accelerate the weathering of cuts that expose bedrock, loosening
Dry washes are located adjacent to and cross under the roadway (sometimes within culverts)
throughout the alignment, as well as within Areas A, B, and C. Within Area C, topographic data
indicates that a relatively large intermittent drainage channel was cut off by road construction.
The existing road grade in the area (8-12 percent) will direct some flows to the Chicken Creek
culvert which passes under the roadway near Sta: 219+00. Surface-water was not observed in
the area during our investigation, but subsurface exploration revealed that subgrade soils were
moist to wet, possibly retaining moisture from earlier run-off and infiltration. This retained
moisture is a likely contributor to both slope instability and reduced pavement support.
4.3 GEOLOGY
4.3.1 Regional Geology
The North Ogden Divide Road extends from the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains in the eastern
part of the Salt Lake Valley to the western part of Ogden Valley. Ogden Valley separates the
western part of the Wasatch Range from the Bear River Range to the east, a subgroup of
mountains that are part of the parent Wasatch Range. The Wasatch Mountains contain a broad
depositional history of thick Precambrian and Paleozoic sediments that have been subsequently
modified by various tectonic episodes that have included thrusting, folding, intrusion, and
volcanics, as well as scouring by glacial and fluvial processes (Stokes, 1987). The uplift of the
Wasatch Mountains occurred relatively recently during the Late Tertiary Period (Miocene Epoch)
between 12 and 17 million years ago (Milligan, 2000). Since uplift, the Wasatch Front has seen
substantial modification due to such occurrences as movement along the Wasatch Fault and
associated spurs, the development of the numerous canyons that empty into the current Salt
Lake Valley and Utah Valley and their associated alluvial fans, erosion and deposition from Lake
Bonneville, and localized mass-movement events (Hintze, 1988).
The Wasatch Mountains, as part of the Middle Rocky Mountains Province (Milligan, 2000), were
uplifted as a fault block along the Wasatch Fault (Hintze, 1988). Ogden Valley itself is a fault-
bounded trough that was occupied by Lake Bonneville (Sorensen and Crittenden, Jr, 1979) before
being cut through by the Ogden River and subsequently dammed to form the Pineview Reservoir.
The North Ogden Divide roadway passes primarily through Cambrian-aged units of the Willard
Thrust Sheet within the Ogden Thrust Zone, which contains a number of bedrock (inactive) faults
that have served to contort the bedrock units in various orientations along the roadway (Coogan
and King, 2016). Figure A-3 is a Regional Geology Map that shows the various geologic units that
the roadway passes through.
As shown on Figure A-3, the roadway primarily passes through Tintic Quartzite bedrock (map unit
Ct) in Area A and Maxfield Limestone bedrock (map unit Cm) in Areas B and C. However, it should
be noted that the roadway in Area C is largely located at the approximate contact between
Maxfield Limestone bedrock to the west and landslide deposits to the east (map unit Qms).
Coogan and King (2016) describe the Tintic Quartzite as a “tan-weathering, cliff-forming, very
well-cemented quartzite, with lenses and beds of quartz-pebble conglomerate, and lesser thin
argillite layers.” The Maxfield Limestone is described as a unit that “from top down includes
dolomite, limestone, argillaceous to silty limestone and calcareous siltstone and argillite, and
basal limestone with argillaceous interval.”
During the site reconnaissance, the Tintic Quartzite exposed in the road cuts in Area A was
observed to be a white to very light gray, highly fractured granular to conglomeratic quartzite.
Despite being highly fractured, the rock was still observed to be hard to very hard. Joint spacing
was typically observed to be between one-half and four inches, with an orientation that
commonly produced wedge to platy-shaped rock fragments. The Maxfield Limestone exposed in
the road cuts in Areas B and C was observed to be highly variable. In some places, it was present
as a mottled dark gray and white cherty limestone that was micritic, thickly bedded, hard to very
hard, and contained some thin shaley/silty interbeds and abundant calcite veining that was not
necessarily coincident with the existing joint pattern. Where this type was present, the road cuts
exhibited a weak blocky jointing. In other areas, the Maxfield Limestone was expressed as a light
gray to pale yellowish brown micritic limestone that exhibited more jointing than the kind
described above, but at random orientations. A third lithologic variation of Maxfield Limestone
was observed to be a moderately hard, medium light gray to light brown argillaceous limestone
that was medium to thickly bedded, blocky jointed, and contained abundant thin calcite veins
and shaley interbeds.
In all three hazard areas, there were a number of places where colluvial deposits were present
that either obscured the bedrock or represented areas where the bedrock had been completely
eroded away. Where present in association with the Tintic Quartzite, the colluvial deposits were
typically a light brown silty, sandy gravel that was dense to very dense, partially cemented, and
contained all angular quartzite clasts. Where present in association with the Maxfield Limestone,
In Area C, surficial evidence indicative of landsliding coincident with the landslide deposits
mapped by Coogan and King (2016) was observed on the downhill side of the road in the form of
inclined trees and in some cases, erosion of the shoulder.
Beneath the roadway, exploratory borings typically encountered lean CLAY (CL) with sand and
gravel, clayey-SAND (SC) or clayey-GRAVEL (GC) type soils. Near Station 212+65 in boring NOC-
BH-6, high-plasticity fat CLAY (CH) was encountered.
Considering the lack of clayey soils in the exposed cut slopes, it is possible that some portions of
the fill used to create the road section may have been derived from off-site sources. These soils
tend to retain moisture for longer periods of time and are not as well-suited as granular soils for
pavement support. They can be used, but pavement section thickness must be greater when they
are relied on for roadway support. Additionally, whether native or imported, during construction
clay soils are more difficult to moisture-condition and compact properly in order to achieve their
maximum density and full capacity for pavement support. Relative density and/or stiffness
measured by resistance with the standard penetration test (SPT) during drilling indicated that
compaction of clay soils was variable along the alignment. Laboratory measured moisture
contents also showed that the pavement subgrade had typically retained a significant amount of
moisture. Our field investigation was performed towards the end of a very dry summer season,
therefore the observed moisture must have either been retained from much earlier in the year
or is fed by groundwater transport.
The roadway crosses numerous unmapped drainage channels (Coogan and King, 2016). At the
time of our site investigation, water was not flowing in any of the minor channels that were
observed adjacent to the investigation areas. Therefore, it is assumed that these drainages are
ephemeral and experience stream flow following significant precipitation events or possibly
during rapid snow melt in the winter or spring. Depending on their location, they will carry water
There are existing groundwater wells and surface diversions located on the east/south facing
slopes downslope of the road between Sta: 187+00 and 256+00 near Liberty. The surface
diversions are all shown to be downhill of the roadway, so water likely travels under/over the
roadway to reach them. A search of the Utah Division of Water Rights records yielded numerous
well records, but few geologic logs. Those reviewed indicated relatively deep well installation,
highly variable soil/rock conditions and non-artesian conditions. Surface water appears to be the
most likely source of water near the roadway. Based on the topography of the general area and
the location the Weber River/Pineview Reservoir, it is assumed that the groundwater gradient is
generally to the east.
Subsurface soil conditions were explored by completing four exploratory borings to depths
ranging from 10 to 26.5 feet below the existing site grade. The approximate locations of the
subsurface explorations are shown on Figure A-2 in Appendix A. The borings were located within
the North Ogden Canyon Road. Exploration points were selected after the pavement condition
assessment was performed by TCC. Their review indicated seven critical areas of pavement
distress; County personnel requested that IGES focus our investigations in four of those seven
areas. After a field review of conditions at all seven locations, the four actual exploration
locations were selected by IGES. Logs of the subsurface conditions as encountered in the
explorations were recorded at the time of drilling by a member of our technical staff and are
presented as Figures B-1 through B-4 of Appendix A. A Key to Soil Symbols and Terminology used
on the boring logs is included as Figure B-5 of Appendix B.
Based on the soil/rock conditions exposed in the road cuts, it was determined that dynamic cone
penetration (DCP) testing would not be suitable for evaluation of pavement subgrade. DCP
testing is intended for use in fine-grained soils and employs relatively small, hand-operated
equipment. It can penetrate some sand and small gravel deposits, but is easily damaged and in
these conditions the results are not reliable.
The borings were completed using a Sonic, track-mounted drill rig equipped with 6-inch casing.
Three of the four explorations (NOC-BH-2, NOC-BH-3, and NOC-BH-4) were completed to 10 feet
below road grade with the intent of reviewing only the pavement support characteristics of sub-
base soils. The fourth boring (NOC-BH-6) was drilled in an area of potential landsliding and
continued into limestone bedrock. No coring of bedrock was performed.
Borings NOC-BH-2 and NOC-BH-3 were most similar, encountering approximately 6 inches of
asphalt underlain by 6 inches to 1 foot of road base material consisting of clayey SAND or GRAVEL,
and the roadbase was underlain by at least 9 feet of lean CLAY with gravel and sand. Similar soil
conditions were also encountered in NOC-BH-4, except the material observed to underlie the
road base was a clayey GRAVEL with sand and cobbles.
Boring NOC-BH-6 was the deepest boring, extending to a depth of 26.5 feet below existing grade
where the top of the Maxfield Limestone bedrock was encountered. This boring was drilled in an
area of slope instability concerns, a place informally identified by the County as the “tree-down
area.” This is a reference to the observable downslope tilting of trees in this area and is a location
where the significant erosion of the shoulder had been taking place. Observed cracks within
pavement are relatively wide, indicating lateral movement in addition to general road surface
distress. This area also represents the geologic contact between the Maxfield Limestone and
landslide deposits on Coogan and King (2016; see Figure A-3) Of note is that though lean CLAY
with sand, gravel, and cobbles was observed underlying the road base (akin to NOC-BH-2 and
NOC-BH-3), intervals of sandy fat CLAY were also encountered and extended down to the
soil/bedrock contact. It is unknown whether the fat clays encountered represented the product
of high-level decomposition and degradation of the limestone bedrock, or if this material had
originated off-site and was transported to the site to be used as fill during road construction. Fat
clay-rich soils produced from the weathering of Norwood Formation bedrock are common in and
around Ogden Valley. Regardless of the origin of the fat clays, it was also observed that this area
coincides with an unnamed ephemeral drainage that was cut off with the installation of the
roadway (see Figures A-1 and A-3). It is possible that the slope instability problems occurring in
this area may be at least in part attributable to the clays in the subsurface acting as low-
permeability barriers that trap meteoric water and/or capture periodic streamflow from the
existing ephemeral drainage.
The site geology along the roadway alignment in hazard areas A, B, and C was mapped and
characterized by an IGES licensed professional geologist on August 1 and 2, 2018. All geologic
contacts were recorded with the use of a hand-held GPS unit, representing transitions between
the bedrock units (Tintic Quartzite or Maxfield Limestone) and colluvial or undivided alluvial and
colluvial units. Additionally, individual cut slopes along the entire roadway alignment in Areas A
and B were assessed and given a relative rockfall hazard rating on the basis of geologic unit
present, height and steepness of the cut, amount of vegetation and cobbles/boulders present on
As shown in Table 5.1.3, the rockfall hazard ranking was variable across different parts of the
roadway alignment in within Evaluation Areas A & B. In general, the rockfall hazard ranking is
considered highest where colluvium was exposed in the road cut, as this material is the easiest
to erode and exposes a number of cobbles and boulders that have the potential to be let loose
over time with repeated storm events or a single high-magnitude storm event. The relative
rockfall hazard was ranked lower in the colluvial unit where cut slopes were lower, gentler, and
more densely vegetated. The Tintic Quartzite expressed in Area A is considered to be in general
a higher rockfall hazard unit than the Maxfield Limestone, as it is more densely fractured, is
exposed in taller road cuts, and commonly exhibits significant overhangs. However, the Tintic
Quartzite in Area A does not pose a dip-slope rockfall hazard threat, as bedding orientations were
measured to dip into the hillslope between 13 and 19 degrees to the northwest and northeast.
Conversely, the Maxfield Limestone presents a dip-slope rockfall hazard threat in some stationing
ranges in Area B, as the bedding was measured to dip between 32 and 57 degrees towards the
road to the northeast and southeast.
IGES reviewed general procedures and recommendations for sizing rockfall catchment areas
adjacent to hillside road-cut slopes susceptible to rockfall. No catchment should be viewed as a
guarantee that rockfall will not reach the roadway. Widely accepted “Ritchie Ditch” design
method (Ritchie, A.M., 1963) utilizes slope angle and slope height to derive minimum with of
rockfall catchment.
Within Area A, slopes generally vary in height from 25-65 feet, with slope angle between 1H:1V
(450) and 0.25H:1V (750). These dimensions indicate that ditches must be 13-20 feet wide for
rockfall protection. With few exceptions, the existing shoulder is generally only six (6) feet wide
within Area A. Some slopes within Area B were estimated to be up to 100 feet tall, with similar
slope angles, which would require ditches to be 25 feet wide. More recently published research
from the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT, 2001) indicates that for the observed
slope heights and angles, the catchment width required for 90 percent rockfall retainage could
vary between 9 and 60 feet.
6.1 GENERAL
Near-surface soils at the site are susceptible to saturation and frost heave. To avoid confusion,
we recommend that footings and culvert supports along the entire length of the roadway are
founded at least 42 inches below existing grade for frost protection. If specific slope conditions
make reaching this depth impractical at lower elevations, IGES should be consulted to provide an
acceptable reduction in depth.
6.2 PAVEMENT
Pavement subgrade soils were observed to be relatively fine-grained in each of the explorations
performed. Road base materials also had moderate to high fines content, particularly in Area C
where soils encountered were wet and fine grained in the pavement section. Considering the
time of year of our explorations, it is anticipated that subgrade soils in Area C are continually wet.
Conditions in Area C have been selected as the governing design case for the entire alignment.
UDOT requirements to address frost issues for flexible pavement design are unclear (UDOT,
2007). They make recommendations for characterizing frost heave, but no specific mitigation
measures are recommended. To provide limited protection against frost heave of the native
subgrade, some state DOTs require the total thickness of the constructed pavement section to
be at least 50 percent of the maximum expected frost penetration (Pavement Interactive, 2008).
Explorations performed within the roadway indicate that the existing pavement section varies
from 14 to 22 inches in thickness. This includes 8-10 inches of asphalt which is likely comprised
of the original pavement plus subsequent overlays and patching that have been performed in
areas of observed distress; “road base” fill was measured to be 6-12 inches thick. To meet the
minimum thickness for limited frost protection, the constructed pavement section should be 15
to 21 inches thick, depending on elevation. When asked, County personnel indicated that they
do not recall significant signs of frost heave within paved sections of the roadway. However, it is
possible that the originally constructed pavement section was less than that currently measured,
and that frost heave could be at least partially responsible for initial pavement cracking which
now reflects through subsequent overlays.
For the pavement design IGES, Inc. assumed a design life of 20 years with 3,500 vehicles in each
direction per day. It was also assumed that the traffic volume contained 5% heavy trucks. Based
on field observation and measured blow counts, a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of 4 was used in
design. Based on the climate data a minimum pavement section thickness of 22 inches is
recommended throughout the alignment in order to provide frost protection.

If subgrades soils are not removed/replaced or properly compacted beyond their current density,
a woven geotextile is recommended throughout the alignment to reduce contamination of the
pavement section with fines present in the subgrade soils or a loss of imported granular soils into
the relatively soft subgrade. At a minimum a woven stabilization/separation geotextile is
recommended throughout the alignment for base reduction, reinforcement, and separation. The
minimum recommended geotextile would be a Basetrac Woven PP80, Mirafi 600X or equivalent.
In Area C, the wet condition of the pavement section may be influenced by upslope runoff
infiltrating the pavement section. We anticipate that improvements to surface water conveyance
will be performed; however, it is our opinion that additional measures should be taken to aid im
removal of existing moisture from the road subgrade. The undrained condition of the pavement
section and subgrade could be improved by a geotextile with wicking capabilities, such as Mirafi
H2Ri. Moisture wicking geotextiles should be installed such that the downslope end of the fabric
is daylighted. All geotextiles should be installed in conformance to manufacturers
recommendations and specifications.
Considering the age of the original pavement (well over 50 years) it is our recommendation that
complete removal, subgrade replacement/improvement and reconstruction of the asphalt
section should be performed. However, based on our preliminary discussions with County
personnel, we anticipate that the cost of complete pavement section reconstruction may prohibit
it from being performed along the entire roadway at this time. The County should plan/budget
for a complete replacement of the pavement section as soon as possible. Until that time, milling,
crack filling and asphalt overlay can be performed in areas of the roadway where significant
rutting is not observed. Based on the observed condition of asphalt during our field investigation,
we recommend that a composite geotextile (mat plus grid, Mirafi MPG100, MPG4 or equivalent)
be used between the existing asphalt and overlay. This interlayer will provide improved moisture
protection to keep moisture from and retard the propagation of reflective cracking through the
asphalt overlay. We anticipate that milling depth will be 2.5-3 inches but note that the depth of
milling can increase in areas where extensive asphalt cracking has occurred. Even with a fabric
interlayer, cracks in excess of ¼ inch wide must be filled with appropriate binder prior to
placement of an overlay.
Non-rutted areas that are suitable for milling, crack filling and overlay should be determined by
TCC in conjunction with their full pavement condition assessment. Full reconstruction of rutted
areas is recommended.
6.3 ROCKFALL
As noted above, the rockfall hazard in Area A and Area B was variable and dependent upon a
number of different factors. In general, the rockfall hazard was ranking highest where colluvial
deposits were exposed in the road cuts, followed by Tintic Quartzite bedrock and Maxfield
Limestone bedrock. Table 5.1.3 displays the various stationing ranges and their associated
relative rockfall hazard ranking classifications and recommended mitigation practices, and
Appendix B contains representative photographs from each of the delineated stationing ranges.
Stationing ranges with a “high” hazard rating are considered to be the most susceptible to rockfall
hazards, and it is recommended that funds allocated to rockfall hazard mitigation should be
prioritized for these areas. For the high hazard areas, a combination of scaling and netting is
recommended, whereby scaling would initially remove the existing loose material in these areas,
which would be followed by the installation of the netting to preclude rockfall events from having
enough momentum and a clear path to the roadway. Specifically, within Area A, the stationing
range considered to have the highest rockfall hazard concern is associated with a cut that exposes
colluvium from approximately Sta: 76+85 to Sta: 79+14. It is recommended that these mitigation
practices be performed as soon as possible for the high hazard areas.
Similar mitigation practices are recommended for those stationing ranges delineated as having a
moderate to high relative rockfall hazard rating, which comprises a long continuous section of
Area B (approximately Sta: 194+58 to Sta: 205+09). These areas are to be considered of
secondary priority, and it is recommended that scaling and/or netting be performed in these
areas within the next couple years. Stationing ranges with a moderate or low to moderate hazard
rating are not considered to be areas of imminent rockfall hazard threat, but could develop into
higher hazard areas over time. Typically, occasional scaling is recommended for these areas. For
stationing ranges with a low relative hazard rating, no rockfall hazard mitigation is considered to
be currently necessary or into the foreseeable future.
Based on the nature of pavement distress observed and a review of geologic mapping (Coogan
and King, 2016) it appears that the road was constructed across the head of a mapped landslide.
Other surficial indications of creeping, unstable slopes such as “jackstrawed” (inclined) trees are
present in this area and other portions of the slopes downhill of the roadway between
approximately Sta: 185+00 - 213+00. The pavement near Sta: 212+65 appears to be excessively
cracked with noticeable lateral separation and has commonly been referred to as the “tree-
down” area because of one relatively large tree adjacent to the roadway which toppled over
sometime within the last 12-15 years. Boring NOC-BH-6 was completed in this area, just uphill of
the downed tree identified by County and TCC personnel. A second exploration in the area was
planned by IGES, but because of schedule constraints was not completed at the request of County
personnel.
We assume that typical cut/fill construction methods were utilized to create the relatively flat
road surface along the canyon wall. TCC’s more recent survey shows that the uphill slope is
failing, possibly due to erosion and lack of vegetative cover; it also shows the downhill edge of
Topography uphill of the roadway shows that an ephemeral drainage channel was cut off by road
construction. It is likely that surface flows are still directed to this area, eroding the slope uphill
of the roadway and saturating the subgrade soils which can further impact the stability of the fill
supporting the roadway.
Based on the subsurface data collected and the assumed cut/fill construction, IGES developed a
2-dimensional cross-section for limit-equilibrium slope stability analysis using Slide 8.011, by
Rocscience. Strength properties were obtained from laboratory unconsolidated undrained
triaxial tests and correlations from blow counts in near surface soils. The geometry of the road
cross section near boring NOC-BH-6 (approximate station 212+65.63) was obtained from survey
data and topography maps.
Although it is our understanding is that this is a county road and is not a UDOT facility, we feel
that the UDOT Geotechnical Manual of Instruction (GMOI) presents a reasonable standard of
care for slope stability near public roadways in Utah. Based on the GMOI a minimum Factor of
Safety (FOS) of 1.2 is considered stable for a long-term static condition for an embankment that
is not in close proximity to a bridge or critical structure. Seismic and post-seismic conditions are
not evaluated for this type of embankment. Although the design seismic event is unlikely, it is
not anticipated that the embankment will be stable in the seismic or post seismic case. Care
should be exercised during future planning that the embankment slope is mitigated if structures
are planned in an area that could be impacted by a failure of this slope. Results of the analysis
are shown in Table 6.2 and in the global stability models in Appendix D.

It should be noted that under the saturated condition our stability model indicates that the slopes
in Area C are only marginally stable. Infill of natural ephemeral drainages may have occurred
during the original construction of the roadway, and ditches for the removal of water may have
become inundated with eroded materials over time leading to ponding and increased infiltration
of surface runoff. We also anticipate that as time progressed, less durable particles in the
subgrade may have broken down from continuous wetting and traffic wear, therefore becoming
less permeable, more saturated, and increasing the rate of pavement deterioration. Seasonal
loosening of near surface soils from frost action may also contribute to the introduction of
surface water into the subgrade. In order to reduce the moisture in the subgrade a moisture
wicking geotextile as indicated in the pavement design section (6.2.1) is recommended.
It was noted that the pavement surface in Area C is generally sloped downhill. It is assumed that
the road was originally constructed level. Based on field data and laboratory data it is anticipated
that the embankment and pavement section are influenced by colluvial creep of high plasticity
soils.
With only a single exploration in the area, we do not have sufficient understanding of subsurface
conditions to prepare a complete mitigation plan for the entire length of Area C. Preliminary
modeling does not indicate that a catastrophic failure is imminent, but the slopes should not be
considered stable. It is our recommendation that the area be monitored by topographic survey
for at least one year to determine the current rate of slope creep. If the surface appears to be
moving at a rate of more than 3-inches per year, we recommend that additional study be
performed to determine appropriate mitigation measures. Mitigation of slope creep may require
costly mitigation procedures. Removal of water from the near surface soils will not mitigate
colluvial creep, but could reduce seasonal increases in load from soils becoming saturated and
improve the performance of the pavement.
The concept of risk is a significant consideration of geotechnical analyses. The analytical means
and methods used in performing geotechnical analyses and development of resulting
recommendations do not constitute an exact science. Analytical tools used by geotechnical
engineers are based on limited data, empirical correlations, engineering judgment and
experience. As such the solutions and resulting recommendations presented in this report cannot
be considered risk-free and constitute IGES’s best professional opinions and recommendations
based on the available data and other design information available at the time they were
developed. IGES has developed the preceding analyses, recommendations and designs, at a
minimum, in accordance with generally accepted professional geotechnical engineering practices
and care being exercised in the project area at the time our services were performed. No
warrantees, guarantees or other representations are made.
The boring logs, laboratory test data, and information contained in this report are based on
limited field exploration, laboratory testing, and understanding of the project. The subsurface
data used in the preparation of this report were obtained largely from the explorations made for
this investigation. It is very likely that variations in the soil, rock, and groundwater conditions
exist between and beyond the points explored. The nature and extent of the variations may not
be evident until construction occurs and additional explorations are completed. If any conditions
are encountered at this site that are different from those described in this report, IGES should be
immediately notified so that we may make any necessary revisions to recommendations
contained in this report. In addition, if the scope of the proposed construction changes from that
described in this report, our firm should also be notified.
It is the client's responsibility to see that all parties to the project including the designer,
contractor, subcontractors, etc. are made aware of this report in its entirety. The use of
information contained in this report for bidding purposes should be done at the contractor's
option and risk.
We recommend that IGES be retained to review the final design plans and specifications in order
to determine that our engineering recommendations have been properly incorporated in the
design documents. We also recommend that IGES be retained to evaluate, construction
performance and other geotechnical aspects of the projects as construction initiates and
progresses through its completion.
