whether liner has an acceptable amount of leakage. A
liner with no leakage is in a practical sense, not
possible. Also, the cost of performing leakage
testing may be high depending on the size of the
pond or reservoir.
**************************************************************************
Test pond or reservoir for leakage. Determine leakage rate. Leakage rate
(Q) shall not exceed the lesser of 0.063 Liters per second one gallon per
minute or the amount given by the following formula. Q (Leakage rate in
liters per second gallons per minute) equals A (Area of liner in thousands
of square meters square feet) multiplied by the square root of H (Depth of
liquid in meter feet), the product then divided by 65.12 80.
