Protective measures may include, but are not limited to, <br /> covering with plastic sheeting,the use of low stockpiles in flat areas,or the use of straw <br /> bales/siltfences around pile perimeters. During the period between October 1 and March <br /> 31,these measures are required. <br /> 7) On-site erosion control inspections and turbidity monitoring should be performed in <br /> accordance with City of Seattle requirements. Weekly and monthly reporting to Ecology <br /> should be performed on a regularly scheduled basis. TESC monitoring should be part of <br /> the weekly construction team meetings. Temporary and permanent erosion control and <br /> drainage measures should be adjusted and maintained, as necessary, at the time of <br /> construction. <br /> It is oUr.opinion that with.the proper implementation of the TESC plans and by field-adjusting <br /> appropriate mitigation elements (best management practices) during construction, as <br /> recommended by the erosion control inspector, the potential adverse impacts from erosion <br /> hazards on the project can be mitigated. <br /> GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> The medium stiff to hard silt and very dense sand comprising the native Whidbey Formation <br /> deposits.

The following sections provide our recommendations for foundation support and <br /> support of slab-on-grade floors. <br /> Site Preparation <br /> Site preparation of planned structural fill,building pads,and other areas should include removal <br /> of all trees, brush,grass, debris, and any other deleterious material. Additionally, all unsuitable <br /> fill or weathered soils and the upper organic topsoil should be removed and the remaining roots <br /> should be grubbed. Areas where loose surficial soils exist due to grubbing operations should be <br /> recompacted in place,or if this is not feasible due to either soil composition or moisture content, <br /> the loose soils should be removed and replaced as subsequently recommended for structural fill <br /> placement. <br /> In-our-opinion,-stable 'construction'slopes•should be the responsibility of the contractor and <br /> should be determined during construction.
