We understand that the southern 165 <br /> feet of the utilidor (Station 13+12 to 14+77) will be constructed, backfilled, and repaved during <br /> Phase 1. During Phase 2, the airplane tow path will be shifted south and will cross over the <br /> completed Phase 1 utilidor. Preliminary plans indicate that the outboard plane wheel will be <br /> located about 15 feet from the temporary end of the Phase 1 utilidor box culvert. The box <br /> culvert will have about 11/2 feet of cover at this location. <br /> We recommend that trench backfill near the end of the Phase 1 box culvert consist of Control <br /> Density Fill (CDF) to reduce the potential for temporary fill slope raveling and provide adequate <br /> support for airplane wheel loads. CDF should meet the requirements of Section 2-09.3(1)E, <br /> CDF or CLSM, as presented in the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) <br /> Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge, and Municipal Construction. We recommend that <br /> CDF be poured neat against the box culvert and the trench wall. The face of the CDF trench <br /> backfill should be near vertical and roughly coincident with the end of the temporary Phase 1 <br /> box culvert. We anticipate that wooden formwork may be needed to construct the near vertical I <br /> CDF face. The CDF should extend from the temporary end of the box culvert at least 10 feet <br /> back into the Phase 1 trench excavation and should extend up to the top of the box culvert. <br /> Section 4.4.3 of this report provides recommendations for a utilidor foundation drain system. <br /> The free draining aggregate and perforated pipe for this system must not become contaminated <br /> with CDF. Provisions should be included in the project plans to protect the foundation drain at <br /> CDF backfill locations. This could include the placement of a plastic sheet above the drainage <br /> system prior to CDF placement. Alternatively, the perforated drain pipe and free drainage <br /> aggregate could be replaced with a solid wall PVC pipe at the locations of CDF placement. <br /> Engineered fill placed above the CDF trench backfill and box culvert may consist of Gravel I <br /> Borrow or the planned pavement section Crushed Surfacing Top Course, as appropriate for the <br /> remaining limited excavation depth. We recommend that the toe of the engineered fill be <br /> located about 2 feet from the temporary end of the box culvert and have a maximum temporary <br /> slope inclination of 2H:1V. <br /> i <br /> Responsive • Resourceful • Reliable 10 <br />
