MEMORANDUM <br />To: Joe Lamanna, File 0430.09 <br />From: Timothy A. Crawford <br />BBA <br />water cbnsultants <br />BISNoP-BROGDEN ASSOCIATES- INC. <br />Subject: Ready Mixed Concrete Company — Spier Property Drainage System — As -Built <br />Construction Summary <br />Job: 0430.09 <br />Date: February 10, 2017 <br />This memorandum presents a summary of the as -built construction of the Spier Property drainage <br />system located adjacent to the Ready Mixed Concrete Company (RMCC) Bromley Lake Pit site <br />near Brighton, Colorado, as presented in attached Figure 1. The purpose of the installed drainage <br />system is to Iower ground water levels on and near the Spier Property. The information in this <br />summary memorandum is based only on information provided by the contractor. Bishop -Brogden <br />Associates, Inc. (BBA) was not onsite during construction of the dewatering system. <br />Drainage System Construction <br />On December 27 — 29, 2016, Claystone Construction constructed the Spier Property drainage <br />system for RMCC in accordance with specifications provided by BBA by first excavating <br />approximately 6 -foot wide trenches for the collection and transmission portions of the drainage <br />system. The collection trench was excavated to varying depth to allow the trench to intercept <br />native gravel material below the water table. The transmission trench was excavated to allow for <br />approximately 6 inches of gravel to be installed beneath the designed transmission pipe elevations. <br />The trenches were backfilled to the approximate designed pipe elevations with Boral #9 gravel <br />material before installing 8 -inch diameter, SDR35 PVC sewer pipe perforated to a slot size of 0.05 - <br />inches (50 -slot) at the approximate designed elevations. After the installation of the pipe, the <br />trenches were backfilled with the Boral #9 gravel material to a depth of 2 feet above the top of the <br />pipe. The remainder of the trenches were backfilled with overburden and native materials. <br />Geofabric material was installed as part of the drainage system to reduce the amount fine material <br />transmitted by the system. The installed gravel in the transmission trench area was fully wrapped <br />in the geofabric material. The installed gravel in the collection trench area had geofabric installed <br />only on top. <br />Two vertical 8 -inch pipe sections protected with 8 -inch steel caps at the surface that connect to the <br />drainage system at "T" connectors were installed as cleanouts to facilitate periodic cleaning and <br />maintenance. <br />At the discharge point of the drain system where it discharges to the McCann Ditch, a discharge <br />structure consisting of concrete and rip -rap material was installed to protect the McCann Ditch <br />from erosion, as presented inset in Figure 1. <br />
