Site Identification of the GNSS Monument Site Name : Sachs Harbour Four Character ID : SACH Monument Inscription : M029002 IERS DOMES Number : 40163M001 CDP Number : N/A Monument Description : Galvanized steel pillar Height of the Monument : 1.5 m Monument Foundation : Permafrost Foundation Depth : 12 m Marker Description : Brass plate with steel centering bolt Date Installed : 2002-07-28 Geologic Characteristic : Bedrock Type : Bedrock Condition : Fracture Spacing : Fault zones nearby : Distance/activity : Additional Information : The GPS reference mark consists of a brass plate with a forced centering stainless steel bolt embedded on top of a 1.5 m high, 13 cm diameter steel casing, welded to a 1.2 m square steel platform made of 42cm thick steel I-beams welded to four 20 cm diameter steel casings each pile driven 12 m into permafrost. Installation was some time prior to 1990. ---------- Monument destroyed shortly after 2005-10-17. Last full day of data is 2005-10-16 (Day 289). 2.
