Examples of Field investigation in a sentence

• Field investigation of all areas of proposed surface disturbance for the Proposed Action were inspected to ensure that potential impacts to natural and cultural resources would be minimized through the implementation of mitigation measures.

• Field investigation may require angular test borings, pres- sure testing, use of dyes or other tracer compounds, or other methods to properly determine permeability of rock.

• Field investigation of low probability areas should include a surface inspection of all areas where the slope is greater than 10 percent, such as rock shelters, caves, mines, quarries, and/or petro-glyphs.

• Field investigation shall consist of:• Surface Explorations- include Walkover Survey to identify and assess landslides, erosion, debris flow, scouring, toe erosion, creep, subsidence, land degradation, rock fall, planner failure, wedge failure, toppling etc.

• Geotechnical Field investigation activities consisting of soil borings and/or rock coring performed during preliminary and final design phases maybe completed by the NMDOT, depending on the design schedule.

Field investigation means a pedestrian reconnaissance of the area of potential effect to determine whether sites are present and, if sites are present, whether the sites can be avoided. Pedestrian reconnaissance may include shovel testing in transects not to exceed 10 meter intervals. The field investigation is conducted by a professional, qualified archaeologist. Contracting for a qualified archaeologist and funding for the survey are the responsibility of the landowner, except for Wetland Reserve Program (WRP) projects.

Field investigation. CPH will conduct a preliminary survey by general reconnaissance of the site for the occurrence or potential occurrence of protected species (threatened, endangered, or special concern) and wetlands and surface waters. The approximate location of all observed protected species shall be identified on the FLUCFCS map or aerial photograph prints. Those species referred to as protected are listed under Florida Administrative Code 68A and Florida Statue 581.185 and Code of Federal Regulation (50 CFR 17.11 and 17.12). CPH’s ecologists will perform a wetland delineation within the project boundaries if wetland and surface water areas are observed. The approximate wetland limits will be delineated in the field in accordance with methodologies outlined in applicable FDEP and ACOE regulations.
