-12- <br /> North Soccer Field <br /> Almost all of this area is planned to be cut, with cut depths of <br /> up to about 15 feet along the west side of the field. This ex- <br /> tends well below the fill depth observed in TP-216. Thus, this <br /> field may be treated as a "native site", similar to the majority <br /> of the proposed softball fields. Surficial natural organic soils <br /> should be stripped, the exposed weathered till surface should be <br /> compacted in place and fill , where required, can be placed. <br /> Center Soccer Field <br /> The majority of the center soccer field is planned to be cut. <br /> Cuts will extend below the fill at the west side of the field <br /> (TP-214) , and will unload the in place fill at the center of the <br /> field (TP-210) . At the east side of the field (TP-211) , about 1 <br /> foot of fill was noted below the forest duff and topsoil . How- <br /> ever, this fill was interpreted to be reworked highly weathered <br /> till , and it was relatively free of organics. Therefore, it is <br /> our opinion that at the center field, fill can remain in place if <br /> it is recompacted after stripping of the forest duff and topsoil . <br /> South Soccer Field <br /> The south soccer field appears to require about half cut and half <br /> fill . At TP-209, about 1 to 2 feet of new fill is planned. <br /> Existing fill at this location was noted to a depth of 8 feet. <br /> However, the upper 3-1/2 feet was relatively clean of organics. <br /> We estimate that settlement due to the limited depth of new fill <br /> will be minor, and that overexcavation of in place fill is most <br /> likely not warranted. Thus, the south soccer field can also be <br /> treated as if it were a "native site". <br /> In general , exposed existing fill should not be left in place if it con- <br /> tains significant roots, branches, or organics, and it is within 2 feet <br /> of final grade. If the option of leaving existing fill in place is <br /> chosen, the fill surface should be compacted to at least 90 percent <br /> relative compaction. If the probability of future settlement associated <br />
