Potential Use of Existing Soils Sample Clauses

Potential Use of Existing Soils. Bedrock The potential use of the soil and bedrock materials anticipated to underlie this site are summarized below. These recommendations are based on our experience and available published data only. Additional geotechnical investigations are required to confirm existing conditions. Organic rich soils and overlying peat deposits, if encountered, should not be used for common fill. Prior to commencing site grading construction, any organic rich materials should be stripped from the development area and stockpiled for future landscape use or removed from site. Underlying granular soils with glacial origin such as glaciofluvial, alluvial or till-like materials, typically comprise a mixture of fine-grained sand, silt and clay materials. These “high fines content” till-like materials are typically compact to dense and moist to saturated in their native undisturbed conditions. Till-like material is generally difficult to compact, particularly if saturated or placed and compacted during wet weather conditions. Till-like material should not be used as engineered fill to support grade supported structures in situations where post-construction settlement is important such as residential strip footing foundations, retaining walls or grade supported floor slabs. Till-like materials are best suited for use as common fill material for general site grading construction in areas where post-construction fill settlement is less critical and provided the material meets the particle size gradation specification for the intended application. It is recommended that coarse granular soils comprising sand, gravel, cobble and boulders, should be limited to minus 100 mm diameter material for most site grading and trench construction activities, whenever possible. Sedimentary bedrock materials, such as shales, siltstone, mudstone, argillite, chert, greywacke or limestone, are considered soft to medium strength rocks, susceptible to weathering and degradation when exposed to water, and should not be used for coarse aggregate applications. More specifically, argillite is considered a soft sedimentary rock which will tend to perform as a residual soil and is described as follows:  generally softer than shale,  has low resistance to water, and  is prone to weathering and erosion. Argillite rubble, therefore, is not generally suitable for construction or as engineered fill. Depending on the specific composition of the argillite from the site, it may be used as fill for certain purpose...

  • Use of Explosives When the use of explosives is necessary for the prosecution of the work, the Contractor shall exercise the utmost care not to endanger life or property, including new work. The Contractor shall be responsible for all damage resulting from the use of explosives. All explosives shall be stored in a secure manner in compliance with all laws and ordinances, and all such storage places shall be clearly marked. Where no local laws or ordinances apply, storage shall be provided satisfactory to the Engineer and, in general, not closer than 1,000 feet (300 m) from the work or from any building, road, or other place of human occupancy. The Contractor shall notify each property Owner and public utility company having structures or facilities in proximity to the site of the work of his/her intention to use explosives. Such notice shall be given sufficiently in advance to enable them to take such steps as they may deem necessary to protect their property from injury. The use of electrical blasting caps shall not be permitted on or within 1,000 feet (300 m) of the airport property.

  • Use of existing infrastructure (3) Each of the proposals pursuant to subclause (1) may with the consent of the Minister and that of any other parties concerned instead of providing for the construction of new facilities or equipment or the provision of new services of the kind therein mentioned provide for the use by the Company of any existing facilities equipment or services of such kind belonging to the Company or the Mount Xxxxxx Participants during any period when the Company is associated with the Mount Xxxxxx Participants, or upon reasonable terms and conditions of any other existing facilities equipment or services of such kind.

  • Acknowledgement of Existing Physical Conditions In undertaking the work under this Contract, the Contractor acknowledges that he has visited the premises and has taken into consideration all open and apparent conditions that might affect his work. No claim based on lack of knowledge of existing conditions shall be allowed unless the existing physical conditions cannot be discovered by a reasonably observant person. Any claims relating to conditions that are materially different from the Contract Documents that were not open and apparent may be adjusted as provided in this Part.

  • Liability for Use of Equipment City shall not be liable for any damage to persons or property as a result of the use, misuse or failure of any equipment used by Contractor, or any of its subcontractors, or by any of their employees, even though such equipment is furnished, rented or loaned by City.

  • Vendor’s Specific Warranties, Terms, and License Agreements Because TIPS serves public entities and non-profits throughout the nation all of which are subject to specific laws and policies of their jurisdiction, as a matter of standard practice, TIPS does not typically accept a Vendor’s specific “Sale Terms” (warranties, license agreements, master agreements, terms and conditions, etc.) on behalf of all TIPS Members. TIPS may permit Vendor to attach those to this Agreement to display to interested customers what terms may apply to their Supplemental Agreement with Vendor (if submitted by Vendor for that purpose). However, unless this term of the Agreement is negotiated and modified to state otherwise, those specific Sale Terms are not accepted by TIPS on behalf of all TIPS Members and each Member may choose whether to accept, negotiate, or reject those specific Sale Terms, which must be reflected in a separate agreement between Vendor and the Member in order to be effective.
