This is the final evaluation report on the dynamic compaction project that was completed in 1985 on an abandoned strip mine and landfill. Since that time, the area has been monitored with instrumentation for lateral movement and horizontal settlement. Evaluation of the test data obtained from seven years of monitoring indicated no appreciable settlement of the embankment. The dynamic compaction of the abandoned strip mine and land fill apprears to have worked effectively. The instrumentation that was used, performed well and provided the necessary data to evaluate the dynamic compaction.
