| | 81: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2000 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | In the East St. Louis vicinity, the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Highways (IDOT) owns 55 high-capacity wells that are used to maintain the elevation of the ground-water table below the highway surface in areas where the highway is depressed below the original land surface. The dewatering systems are located at five sites in the alluvial valley of the Mississippi River in an area known as the American Bottoms. The alluvial deposits at the dewatering sites are about 90 to 115 feet thick and consist of fine sand, silt, and clay in the upper 10 to 30 feet, underlain by medium to coarse sand about 70 to 100 feet thick. The condition and efficiency of a number of the dewatering wells became suspect in 1982 on the basis of data collected and reviewed by IDOT staff. Since 1983, IDOT and the Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS) have conducted a cooperative investigation to more adequately assess the operation and condition of the wells, to attempt to understand the probable causes of well deterioration, and to evaluate rehabilitation procedures used on the wells. Work conducted during FY 95 (Phase 12) included monitoring the rehabilitation of four wells, step-testing the rehabilitated wells and checking the discharge from two wells for sand pumpage, checking the quality of the water discharged during the step tests, and monitoring the ground-water levels at the dewatering system sites. Posttreatment step tests were used to help document the rehabilitation of four dewatering wells, Interstate-70 (I-70) Wells 3A, 5, 11A, and 15, during FY 95 (Phase 12). Chemical treatments used to restore the capacity of these four wells were moderately successful. The improvement in specific capacity per well averaged about 103 percent based on data from pre- and posttreatment step tests. The specific capacity of I-70 Well 15 was restored to about 109 percent of the average observed specific capacity of wells in good condition at the I-70 site and the other three wells were restored to about 72 to 87 percent of the average observed specific capacity for wells in good condition. The sand pumpage investigation conducted during the posttreatment step tests on I-70 Wells 3A and 11A showed little or insignificant amounts of sand in the portable settling tank after the step tests. The tank was required to divert the discharged water into the stormwater drainage system during the other two step tests, precluding a check for sand pumpage. | | | | Date Created: | 9 24 2004 | | | | Agency ID: | CR-2000-10 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000000829 Original UID: 999999994306 FIRST WORD: Dewatering | |
| 82: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2003 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | In the East St. Louis vicinity, the Illinois Department of Transportation Division of Highways (IDOT) owns 56 high-capacity wells that are used to maintain the elevation of the groundwater table below the highway surface in areas in which the highways were constructed below the original land surface. The dewatering systems are located at five sites in the alluvial valley of the Mississippi River in an area known as the American Bottoms. The alluvial deposits at the dewatering sites are about 90 to 115 feet thick and consist of fine sand, silt, and clay in the upper 10 to 30 feet, underlain by about 70 to 100 feet of medium to coarse sand. The condition and efficiency of a number of the dewatering wells became suspect in 1982 on the basis of data collected and reviewed by IDOT staff. Since 1983, IDOT and the Illinois State Water Survey have conducted a cooperative investigation to more adequately assess the operation and condition of the wells, to attempt to understand the probable causes of well deterioration, and to evaluate rehabilitation procedures used on the wells. Work scheduled for FY 00 (Phase 17) included conducting 18 condition-assessment and posttreatment step tests, monitoring of the chemical treatment of 11 wells, and observing and documenting the construction of 2 new (replacement) dewatering wells. Of the 18 step tests conducted, 11 were post-chemical-treatment step tests, 5 were routine condition assessment step tests on existing wells, and 2 were condition assessments on newly constructed wells. The results of the five condition assessment step tests indicated specific capacities ranging from 25.1 to 65.2 gallons per minute per foot (gpm/ft), corresponding to very poor to fair well conditions, respectively. It was recommended that all five wells be chemically treated in FY01. Posttreatment step tests were used to help document the rehabilitation of 11 dewatering wells during FY 00 (Phase 17): I-70 Wells 2A and 8A; 25th Street Wells 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9; and Missouri Avenue Wells 2 and 3. Chemical treatments used to restore the capacity of these seven wells were moderately successful. There was a wide range of improvement in specific capacity per well, ranging from 2 percent to 503 percent improvement, and averaging 124 percent based on specific-capacity data from pre- and posttreatment step tests. A sand pumpage investigation, which was conducted during 15 of the 18 step tests during FY 00, revealed that 25th Street Wells 2, 3, and 4 were pumping sand. These conditions may pose a threat to the long-term operation of these wells, especially 25th Street Well 4. Smaller amounts of sand were found following the step test for 25th Street Wells 2 and 3. | | | | Date Created: | 9 24 2004 | | | | Agency ID: | CR-2003-08 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000000874 Original UID: 999999994406 FIRST WORD: Dewatering | |

| 85: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Racial disproportionality in prison admissions for drug crimes in Illinois prompted the Authority to commission a more in-depth analysis of the problem. The products of the analysis were slated to appear in four complementary reports examining the disproportionate confinement of minority drug offenders. The first discussed racial disparities in criminal justice processing for drug crimes at the national level and provided the background for the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority-commissioned analysis (Lurigio, 2004). The current report, which is the second in the series, is designed to promote a basic understanding of the structure and content of Illinois' drug laws. It discusses the major components of those laws as originally drafted as well as additions and enhancements to those laws that were enacted from 1985 to 2002. | | | | Date Created: | 11 17 2006 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003678 Original UID: 3519 FIRST WORD: Disproportionate | |

The Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority awarded a small grant to TASC for a preliminary investigation of racial disproportionality in sentencing for drug crimes. The current report is the third in a series of publications that highlight the disproportionate incarceration of African Americans for drug crimes in Illinois. The purpose of the current report is to describe the results of analyses of statewide data in order to test whether Human Rights Watchs findings on disproportionality were replicable and to consider a few hypotheses thatsuggest explanations for the arrest and imprisonment data and provide a basis for future discussions of remedies for racial sentencing disparities. | | | | Date Created: | 11 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003679 Original UID: 3520 FIRST WORD: Disproportionate | |
