These soil density tests shall be performed at finio (2) foot vertical intervals �beginning at a level two (2) feet above the top of the installed pipe and continuing to the top of the completed backfill at iritervals along the trench not to exceed 300 linear feet. The Contractor will be responsible for providing access and trench safety system to the level of trench backfill to be tested. No extra compensation will be allowed for exposing the backfill layer to be tested or providing trench safety system for tests conducted by the City. D.

This finished grade shall be maintained in a serviceable condition until the paving has been reptaced. All residential driveways shall be accessible at night and over weekends. It has been determined by the Transportation and Public Works Department that the strip of existing HMAC pavement between the existing gutter and the edge of the trench pavement repair will not hold up if such strip of existing pavement is finro (2) feet or less in width. Therefore, at the locations in the project where the trench wall�is three (3) feet or less from the lip a of the existing gutter, the Contractor shall be required to remove the existing paving to� such gutter. The pavement repair shall then be made from a minimum distance of finrelve (12) inches outside the trench wall nearest the center of the street to the gutter line. � �� ,� s�;. `;�. a�oi�tiss SG23 PART D - SPECIAL �ONDITIONS The pavement shall be repl�ced within a maximum of �five (5) working days, providing job placement conditions�will permit repaving.

Types 3 or 4 Backfill may be required for special conditions where the possibility of settlement or erosion of backfill must be eliminated or when, after backfill is started, it becomes apparent that Type 1 Backfill is unsuitable. T Type S Backfill may be used in special locations where allowed by the permit, agreement, or by the Texas Department of Transportation representative. (B) Type 1 Backfill (Compacted Backfill) Type 1 backfill shall consist of compacted material obtained from suitable soil excavated from the trench, or from sources outside the highway right-of-way. Material shall be free of rock, lumps, or clods that will not break down under compaction. Backfill material shall be placed in the trench in layers not to exceed 6" in depth and compacted. Water shall be added as required to facilitate compaction. _� Compaction shall be done with rollers or mechanical tamps.
