Logan Martin Dam is owned and operated by Alabama Power Company. Since the completion of the dam in 1964, control of the underseepage through the karstic foundation has been a continuous challenge. Several attempts have been made to establish a cutoff through the foundation by grouting. However, recent hydrogeological investigations indicate that the original and the remedial curtains did not extend deep enough to intercept the predominate seepage paths. The original curtain extended to an average depth of 30 meters (100 feet) into bedrock. Highly permeable zones have been found at depths greater than 122 meters (400 feet). This paper presents the drilling and grouting techniques utilized for the most recent grouting program.
