I <br /> June 6 2008 <br /> Serenity Meadows <br /> �i L&A Job No. 8A017 <br /> Page 15 <br /> I <br /> prepared as described in the SITE PREPARATION AND GENERAL EARTHWORK section of <br /> this report Prior to placing road base material,the subgrade soils should be compacted to a non- <br /> yielding state with a vibratory roller compactor and proof-rolled with a piece of heavy <br /> construction equipment, such as a fully-loaded dump truck. Any areas with excessive flexing or <br /> pumping should be over-excavated and re-compacted or replaced with a structural fill or crushed <br /> rock placed and compacted in accordance with the recommendations provided in the <br /> STRUCTURAL FILL section of this report. <br /> We recommend that a 6-inch-thick minimum, compacted, crushed rock base (CRB), consisting <br /> I' of 7/8-inch-minus crushed rock, be used for the roadway. Such crushed rock base may be <br /> replaced with a 2-to-3-inch layer of leveling course constructed of compacted 7/8-inch crushed <br /> rock if the roadways are to be based on cuts into undisturbed, dense to very-dense,fresh,advance <br /> outwash and, or till soils. The crushed rock or subgrade base should be overlain with a 3-inch <br /> asphalt treated base (ATB) topped by a 2-inch-thick Class B asphalt concrete (AC) surficial <br /> course. <br /> DRAINAGE CONTROL <br /> Rain Gardens <br /> Storm runoff captured over impervious surfaces of the proposed development of the site,such as <br /> a driveways and roadways,will be disposed onsite through a series of rain gardens <br /> roofs and paved y y � <br /> in accordance with a minimum impact design(MID) method. A typical section of rain garden is <br /> shown on Plate 8. The rain gardens will be interconnected with an under drain consisting of a <br /> PVC drain line buried in a gravel-filled trench. The rain gardens will consist of excavated ponds <br /> lined with a 18 to 24 inch thick layer of compost amended soil mix. The sections of this PVC <br /> drain line under the rain gardens will be slotted to allow water to flow from the under drain;line <br /> into the rain gardens. Stormwater to be discharged into the under drain line is to be routed into <br /> sediment control structures/oil-water separators. Water stored in the rain gardens would then <br /> LIU & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />
