~' <br />Material spread on the fill that is too wet for proper compaction shall be removed or it may be <br />' left on the fill and permitted to dry, assisted by discing and harrowing as necessary, until the <br />moisture content is reduced to an amount suitable for obtaining the specified percent of <br />compaction. If material is left on the fill to dry, no material may be placed over the wet material <br />'' until it has been dried, reworked, and properly compacted. <br />Mixing of wet and dry material to obtain the proper moisture content shall not be done. Placing <br />mixed material shall only be done after the material has cured and a uniform distribution of the <br />moisture content has been achieved and approved by the Engineer. <br />' 6.6.2 Application of Water <br />I Water may be applied to fill materials within the borrow azea or within the disposal area using <br />water trucks and a frequency acceptable to the Engineer. It is the intent of this Specification that <br />' adjustments in the moisture content be made principally within the borrow area. <br />6.6.3 Cohesionless(Sand and Rock Fill <br />' Sand fill materials shall be uniformly wetted only as necessary to facilitate placement and <br />' prevent fugitive dust as outlined in Section 3.3. <br />6.7 Conduct of Work <br />' The Contractor shall route his construction equipment and take all other actions necessary to <br />prevent material of the type required from being deposited inadvertently, within azeas which will <br />adversely impact hydraulic or structural performance. Any improperly deposited material shall <br />be removed from the embankment as required by the Engineer. The material removed should <br />' not be reused and shall be wasted in locations designated by the Engineer. <br />' Any stones of such dimensions that would interfere with compaction in the layer thicknesses <br />specified or impact performance, as determined by the Engineer, shall be removed from the zone <br />in which they are placed prior to compaction. <br />' The Contractor shall maintain and protect fills in a condition satisfactory to the Engineer at all <br />' times until the final completion and acceptance of the work. Any approved fill material which <br />becomes unsuitable for any reason whatsoever, after being placed in the fill and before final <br />acceptance of the work, shall be removed and replaced in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer <br />' at the Contractor's expense. <br />-t~- <br />
