There are two existing excavations related to environmental remediation. This project includes the excavation of soil under the direction of an environmental firm for the purposes of environmental remediation and sampling. 1.3 Description This project includes excavation in two areas: Project tasks: 1. Rail spur Excavation - Currently 100' long east to west, 10' wide north to south. Plan to widen excavation to north, south, and east by 3 feet, and extend to the west to RS-1 approximately 50 feet. Extension to the west will be to the new width of 16' x 50'. The extensions to the north and south will be 3'x100' , and the east 3' x 16'. All depths will stay consistent with the previous dig to 30" deep. All excavated soil will be stored on site for future disposal. Rail Spur Excavation Extensions are: 16x50x2.5=2,000 ft3 3x100x2.5= 750 ft3 3x100x2.5= 750 ft3 16x10x2.5= 400 ft3 Total = 3,900 ft3 2.

Backfill - Provide backfill material (3" minus) and fill both new and existing excavation areas after environmental sampling is completed. This backfill work should be able to be started the same day as the excavation. The excavation work will be directed by an environmental firm that will be performing sampling in the excavation areas.
