A. The removal and storage of topsoil shall occur after site preparation is complete and
before excavation and embankment construction begin. Likewise,topsoil will be
replaced after excavation and embankment construction are complete.
B. Removal: Topsoil shall be stripped to an average depth of six inches (6")from areas

- blade, light maintainer, or other acceptable machinery. All particles of the finish grade
shall be reduced to less than one inch in diameter or they shall be removed. All rocks of
one inch or greater shall also be removed. Grading operations and equipment will be
- such that topsoil does not become overcompacted. Bulldozer blades and front-end
loader buckets are not acceptable devices for topsoil grading operations. Final grading
within five feet of constructed or installed elements shall be hand raked.
G. Acceptability: Finished areas of topsoil are satisfactory if they are true to grade,true in
plane, even in gradient(slope),uniform in surface texture, and of normal compaction.
Areas of loose granular pockets or of overcompacted soils are not acceptable and will
be reworked. Finished areas will promote surface drainage and will be ready for
turfgrass planting.

D. Scarification: The surface of all areas and slopes over which fill is to be placed,other
than rock, shall be scarified to a depth of approximately six(6")inches to provide a
bond between the existing surface and the proposed embankment. Scarification shall be
accomplished by plowing,discing,or other approved means. Prior to fill placement,the
loosened material shall be adjusted to the proper moisture content and recompacted to
the density specified herein for fill.
E. Benching: Scarification is normally adequate for sloping surfaces. However,in certain
cases where fill is to be placed against hillsides or existing embankment with slopes
greater than 4:1, the Owner may direct the Contractor to key the fill material to the
existing slopes by benching. A minimum of two feet(2')normal to the slope shall be
removed and recompacted to insure that the new work is constructed on a firm
foundation free of loose or disturbed material.
F. Depositing: Fill material shall be placed in horizontal layers or lifts,evenly spread,not
to exceed eight(8") inches in loose depth before conditioning and compaction. Unless
otherwise permitted,each layer of fill material shall cover the length and width of the
area to be filled and shall be conditioned and compacted before the next higher layer of
fill is placed. Adequate drainage shall be maintained at all times.
G. Watering: At the time of compaction,the moisture content of fill material shall be such
that the specified compaction will be obtained, and the fill will be firm,hard, and
� unyielding. Fill material which contains excessive moisture shall not be compacted
until it is dry enough to obtain the specified compaction.
H. Compacting: Each layer of earth fill shall be compacted by approved tamping or
sheepsfoot rollers,pneumatic tire rollers, or other mechanical means acceptable to the
Owner. Hand-directed compaction equipment shall be used in areas inaccessible to
vehicular compactors.
I. Grading: Embankments shall be constructed in proper sequence and at proper
densities for their respective functions. All embankment serves in one capacity
or another as subgrade(e.g.,under topsoil,under concrete and asphalt pavement,
under structures,etc.). Accordingly, the upper layer of embankment shall be
graded to within plus or minus 0.10 foot of proper subgrade elevation prior to
depositing topsoil, and prior to the construction of pavements, slabs, etc.
3.05 DENSITY CONTROL
A. Earth Embankment in General: Earth embankment shall be compacted in lifts at a
minimum of ninety percent(90%)of Standard Density ASTM D698 with plus four
percent(4%) or minus two percent(20/6)percentage points of optimum moisture
content.
B. Earth Embankment Under Structures and Pavement: The top six(6") inches of natural
earth comprising the subgrade for structural slabs or for areas of pavement shall be
ninety five percent(95%)to ninety eight percent(98%)of Standard Density ASTM

PART 3-EXECUTION
3.01 GENERAL
All turfing operations are to be executed across the slope,parallel to finished grade contours.
3.02 SOIL PREPARATION
A. Scarify subgrade to a depth of three inches (3")before depositing the required topsoil.
B. Tillage shall be accomplished to loosen the topsoil, destroy existing vegetation and
prepare an acceptable sod bed. All areas shall be tilled with a heavy duty disc or a chisel-
type breaking plow,chisels set not more than ten inches apart. Initial tillage shall be done
in a crossing pattern for double coverage,then followed by a disc harrow. Depth of
tillage shall be five inches. A heavy duty rototiller may be used for areas to be planted
with sod.

VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW
Section 2252.002, Texas Government Code,provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low
bidder, non-resident bidders(out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of
business are outside of the State of Texas)bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or
services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a
Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a non-resident bidder in order to obtain a comparable
contract in the State in which the non-resident's principal place of business is located. The appropriate
blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or non-resident bidders in order for your bid to
meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or non-resident contractors to do so will automatically
disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B.
A. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are required to
be percent lower than resident bidders by state law. A copy of the statute is
attached.
Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are not required
to underbid resident bidders.
B. Our principal place of business or corporate office is in the State of Texas.
