IDRAFT <br /> the U.S. No. 200 sieve) increases, the soil becomes increasingly sensitive to small changes in <br /> moisture content and adequate compaction becomes more difficult or impossible to achieve, <br /> particulazly during wet weather. Generally, soils containing more than about 5 percent fines by <br /> weight cannot be propedy compacted when the moisNro content is more than a few percent from <br /> optimum. <br /> We recommend using a well-graded sand or sand and gravel mizture with iess than 5 <br /> percent paasing the U.S. No. 200 sieve basod on the fraaion passing the 3/4-inch sieve if <br /> earthwork operations are conduaed during wet weather, <br /> EROSION CONTROL MEASURES <br /> In addition to measures for earthworr placement, convol measures must also be <br /> implemented to mitigate erosion ha:ard areaz and prevent sediment transport onW undeveloped <br /> aceas. The potential sources or causes of erosion depend oo many factors including construction <br /> methods, ground configuration (i.e., slope length and gradient, amount of ezposure, etc.), soil <br /> type, construction sequencing and weather. In regard to development of the central area, the <br /> west, eazt end south sides will be surrounded by other developed areac, The north boundary will <br /> remain undeveloped. Preventive erosion control measures ihat should be implemented in the <br /> developed area include minimizing the area of site disturbance, using vacked equipment to <br /> minimize rutting, removing atanding surface water, site grading W avoid concentration of sur(ace <br /> water runoff onto or off of cut or fill slopes and natural slopes, and providing a blanket <br /> protection on finished slopes. Preventive measures that should be implemented along the <br /> development boundary wi11 include installation of silt fences, straw bales, and other de��ices and <br /> tec6niques that will trap any silt and prevent it from moving off site. <br /> Temporary erosion control measures that may be used within the basic site grading include <br /> instaliatlon of the following: <br /> • Constructfon Entrance • A rock stabilized temporary ent�ance pad in accordance <br /> with City of Everett Standazd 2.5.2.9 and Standazd Plan 208 should be installed at <br /> alt entrances to the site. <br /> • Flter Fabric Fencxs - Filter fabric fences s6ould be installed per City of L-verett <br /> Design Standard Plan 205. The fabric should be Mirafi 140N or equivalent. <br /> • Straw Bale Dams - Straw bale dams should be installed per City of Everett Design <br /> Standard Plan 206. <br /> • Hydroseed and Mulching - Hydroseed and mulch disturbed areas that will be leh <br /> unworred for 30 days or more and all finished slopes in accordznce with City of <br /> Evereti Standard 2.4. <br /> • Brush Barriera - To retain sediment in smaller disturbed areas, brush barriers may <br /> be wnsWcted vansverse to the slope. The barrier,� should be made from clearing <br /> and grubbing residue. <br /> � C e o E o ; i n e e r � 6 Fle No.0IZ0.1t0-R10� +'+ <br /> 06__92 <br />
