Observations/Finding

As requested, a ASEC Inspector was present at the above referenced site for the purpose of observing the placement of structural fill at the area of lots 338 through 347 approximate size 35 feet by 300 feet. Based on review of guidelines for fill placement, the required compaction for structural fill at the above mentioned area is 95 % of standard proctor. Based on visual observation and field measuring, the fill was placed in 8 to 12 inch thick lifts and compacted using CAT 815F sheepsfoot compactor(weight; 45,757 lbs.). Based on density testing, the fill placed today at elevations between approximately -14 feet and -12 feet below finished grade was compacted according to fill placement guidelines. See attached density test results for more details.

Boulder laden fill was being placed with alternating layers of structural fill and compacted using rubber tired dump trucks and a CAT 815F sheepsfoot compactor.

ASEC recommends sealing of the surface of placed fill from inclement weather and maintain the positive drainage.

The contractor was notified about results.
