SOIL COVER <br /> soil cover may consist of on-site silty clay surface soil (USCS =cl,ml)material. If landscaping <br /> rThe <br /> f the mound is desired, drought tolerant grass may be planted on the mound. Instant sod lawn <br /> rass will help prevent erosion of the soil cap. As referenced, the slopes must not exceed 3:1, which <br /> will place the height of the mound at approximately three feet higher than surrounding grade. The <br /> grass should only be irrigated during the spring and summer months by an "impact" type sprinkler <br /> that is timed to come on 3-5 times per day for short durations, taking into account prevailing winds. <br /> It is imperative that irrigation water does not percolate past the root zone of the grass to prevent <br /> hydraulic loading of the mound. This may require careful management and investigation by a <br /> landscape contractor. <br /> D.
