All surface run-off from the fill areas is directed to this sediment control facility. <br />SITE PREPARATION <br />Organic materials such as brush and trees have been removed front the fill areas. Topsoil has been <br />recovered from (with the exception of exempted steep slopes) and stockpiled for use in reclamation of the <br />fill area. <br />No evidence of sprinss or seeps was observed during site preparation. <br />DRAINAGE SYSTEM (UNDERDRACNS) <br />Underdrain construction has been completed in advance of fill placement. <br />FILL PLACEMENT <br />Significant quantities of fill material have been permanently placed. Fill placement has not approached <br />within the zone requiring lift compaction for final out-slope construction. <br />COVER MATERIAL <br />Final fill configuration has not been obtained and no cover material placed on the excess spoil. <br />RECOMMENDED ACTIONS <br />Final slope on topsoil stockpiles needs to be established, followed by stabilization (seeding) this spring. <br />
