<br />FILLING AND GRADING
<br />1.Rough grading of all areas within the construction limits, including adjacent transition areas shall be reasonably smooth
<br />and compacted. The rough graded subgrade surface generally shall not be more than 6 inches above or below the
<br />established subgrade elevations. All ditches, swales, and gutters shall be graded to drain adequately. The subgrade shall
<br />be evenly sloped to provide drainage away from building walls in all directions at a minimum slope of 1%. The Contractor
<br />shall provide rounded transitions at top and bottom of banks and other breaks in grade.
<br />2.Fill and backfill materials shall be inorganic soils, free of roots, rocks, boulders, and debris.
<br />3.Bedding material or granular backfill larger than 2" in its largest dimension shall not be allowed within 2 feet of new
<br />underground pipes. Material larger than 3" in its largest dimension shall not be allowed within 1 foot of subgrade elevation.
<br />4.Imported compacted fill material shall have a maximum of 12 percent passing the #200 sieve, by weight. The proposed
<br />imported fill material shall be tested by an independent testing lab for suitability as compacted fill for this project. The
<br />Contractor shall pay for the testing services and provide a copy of the test results to the Engineer.
<br />5.The Contractor shall fill and grade as necessary to bring surfaces to required elevations, and provide all materials
<br />necessary, whether obtained on or off the project site.
<br />6.The Contractor shall place compacted material in uniform horizontal lifts not exceeding 8" in depth for clay soils, and 12" in
<br />depth for sandy soils, and compact as required to achieve specified density.
<br />7.Compaction shall be obtained with the use of vibratory rollers or rammers. During compaction, fill material shall contain
<br />moisture content, as necessary, for the required compaction as indicated by an independent testing laboratory. The
<br />moisture shall be uniform throughout each lift. If the material is too dry, water shall be added with approved equipment
<br />and methods, which will not wash out fine material. If the material is too wet, it shall be dried by harrowing, disking,
<br />blading, or other approved methods recommended by the independent testing laboratory.
<br />8.Areas designated for pavement in excavated (cut) areas shall be scarified to a depth of 1 foot. The Contractor shall bring
<br />the subgrade material to optimum moisture content as indicated by the independent testing laboratory, and compact
<br />the subgrade to the specified density listed below for soils underneath pavements.
<br />9.The Contractor shall not place fill material when either the fill material, or the material on which it is to be placed, is frozen.
<br />Any soft or yielding areas appearing in the fill resulting from frost, rain, or any other reason whatsoever shall be scarified,
<br />removed, recompacted and/or otherwise rectified to the satisfaction of the Engineer before any new fill is placed.
<br />UNFORESEEN OBSTACLES
<br />1.The Engineer shall be contacted immediately if any unforeseen major obstacles are encountered during excavation, such
<br />as abandoned wells, abandoned or functioning utilities, subsurface streams or rock, etc., which would add significant
<br />expense to the Contractor.

<br />percent.
<br />3.Remove topsoil to its entire depth from areas, which are to be disturbed by new construction work. Existing vegetated
<br />areas, which are not in the proposed construction area(s) shall remain in place. The Contractor shall field verify topsoil
<br />depths between any soil borings, and remove to greater depths than indicated in the soils report if such conditions are
<br />encountered. Salvaged topsoil shall be maintained in stockpiles with adequate erosion & sediment control provided.
<br />4.Stockpiled topsoil shall only be used for finish grading of new vegetated areas. Excess topsoil shall be removed from the
<br />site by the Contractor.
<br />5.Protect all existing vegetated areas, plantings, and other landscaping to remain in place. Any damaged areas shall be
<br />replaced at the Contractor's expense.
<br />PLAN GRADES
<br />1.Elevations shown on the project drawings are finished grade elevations, unless noted otherwise. Elevations not specifically
