No additional fill shall be placed over an <br /> area until the existing fill has been tested horizontally and vertically and determined by <br /> the CQA Monitor to meet the Earthwork Specifications of this document. The area to be <br /> reworked will be verified by survey if in the opinion of the CQA Monitor conditions <br /> warrant this detail. <br /> 6.3.2 MOISTURE CONTENT AND DENSITY <br /> If, in the opinion of the Geotechnical CQA Consultant or his designated representative, <br /> fill materials which have been placed and/or are ready to be placed, do not visually have a <br /> uniform and homogeneous material characteristic and moisture content throughout, these <br /> materials will be removed,without testing, and will be reprocessed and/or reworked until, <br /> in the opinion of the Geotechnical CQA Consultant or his designated representative, they <br /> meet the Project Specifications. <br /> -13- <br /> GIX2005-0082/FOR WARD/CQAPI.AN.Jod9/15/2005 <br /> Geologic Associates <br />
