Topsoil. The Lessee shall conserve and preserve the topsoil as required from the leased premises, having regard to good soil conservation practices.
Topsoil. Seller reserves the right to remove all topsoil stored on the Premises but Seller shall comply with all municipal laws and regulations as to the amount of topsoil needed to be left on the Premises. This paragraph shall survive delivery of the deed.
Topsoil. 10. The Subdivider agrees to stockpile on site, in a safe manner, the topsoil removed from all areas excavated and graded. The topsoil from the stripped areas shall be used to cover areas to be seeded or sodded to a minimum depth of 15.24 cm (6”) and shall not be removed from the site until such time as all seeding or sodding has been completed. Any excess of topsoil may be removed but only after the Subdivider has received the approval by the County. All building lots are to be topsoiled and sodded unless otherwise approved by the County. Common areas, are also to be sodded unless with the County’s written consent topsoil and seeding is permitted.
Topsoil. Developer shall place topsoil, either salvaged and stockpiled from on-site or imported, to a 6- inch depth in all planting areas. Developer may elect to ask IFA for permission to use existing topsoil if the soils tests prove the existing soils to be a sufficient growing medium (assuming minor amendments are needed). Soil testing shall be in accordance with the Department specifications. Existing topsoil may only be used for topsoil with the written approval of IFA.
Topsoil. Insofar as it may be practicable to do so, the Grantee shall, unless otherwise requested by the Grantor, strip, prior to construction such width of topsoil as may be required under good oil field practices and in compliance with existing regulations and replace the topsoil as near as possible to its original condition following construction.
Topsoil. A. Stripping: Strip existing topsoil from areas that will be excavated or graded prior to commencement of excavating or grading and place in well-drained stockpiles in approved locations. SECTION 02151 SHORING, SHEETING AND BRACING
Topsoil. A layer of topsoil, 760 mm in thickness and believed to represent the original grade at the site, was encountered directly below the fill materials at BH-04. The topsoil consists of a mottled grey/brown silty sand, with traces of gravel, wood, and organics. An N-value of 5 obtained in the topsoil layer indicate a loose relative density. A grain size test (curve appended) performed on the topsoil sample shows it to contain 4 percent gravel, 76 percent sand and 20 percent fines. A moisture content of 43 percent was obtained and indicates a compressible soil. Glacial Till A layer of xxxxxxx-xxxxx glacial till, 0.5 to 1.5 m in thickness, was encountered directly below the fill or topsoil (BH-04) layers. The till was found to vary in composition from a silty sand to a silt and sand, with trace to some gravel, and occasional sandstone cobbles. The till surface was encountered 3.5 to 4.3 m below present grade. The elevation of the till surface was found to range from a low of el. 0.91 m at BH-03 to a high of el. 1.56 m at BH-02. N-values obtained within the till stratum were found to range from 30 to 49 indicating a compact to dense relative density. N-values in excess of 30 within the local tills are typically attributed to the presence of sandstone cobbles/layers within the till, and/or the proximity of the underlying bedrock. Grain size testing (curves appended) performed on representative samples of the till show it to contain 8 to 17 percent gravel, 66 to 68 percent sand and 17 to 24 percent fines. The natural moisture content of the till samples was found to range from 17 to 19 percent. Bedrock Sandstone bedrock was encountered directly below the glacial till stratum at the boreholes, at depths ranging from 4.6 to 5.0 m below existing grade. The elevation of the bedrock surface was found to be relatively uniform across the site, ranging from el. 0.03 m at BH-02 to el. 0.56 m at BH-01. Bedrock was proved by core drilling at BH-01 and BH-04, and was inferred, based on split spoon refusal and/or resistance to auger advancement, at BH-02 and BH-03. The rock core recovered consists predominantly of very weak to weak, medium grained, reddish brown sandstone, with occasional seams of hard mudstone. The bedrock is horizontally bedded with extremely close (<20 mm) to close (60 to 200 mm) joints which typically occur along the bedding planes. Average recovery and RQD (Rock Quality Designation) values of 89 percent and 11 percent, respectively, indicate very poor qual...
Topsoil. Removal of topsoil shall be measured on a stockpile M3 basis regardless of the depth. Contractor shall include for loading and transport of topsoil to an approved stockpile.
Topsoil. A. Import clean topsoil for use as backfill mix. Topsoil shall be furnished by the Contractor and shall meet the following conditions:
Topsoil. A. Fine sand or loamy fine sand indigenous to the area suitable for plant growth that is free of weeds, roots, stumps, rocks larger than ½” diameter, organic muck, hard pan, toxic substances detrimental to plant growth, and construction debris such as limerock, concrete, and asphalt pieces. Deliver in a normally moist condition, neither muddy nor wet. Soil used for topsoil shall meet the following criteria measured in accordance with the appropriate AASHTO and ASTM standard:
