PROJECT NO: Z486.01 DATE: 11/08/22
LOCATION: 225 White’s Path, South Yarmouth, MA CLIENT: 225 White’s Path Units 2 and 3, LLC
WEATHER: Sunny, 45-52 ºF CONTRACTOR(S): DellbrookǀJKS; C.C.
Construction, Inc.
1. Mackenzie Meschwitz arrived on site at 0700 hours.
Left site at 1500 hours.
2. Earthwork equipment:
A) One Caterpillar PC 360 LCi Excavator B) One Bomag 50/55D Reversible Vibratory Plate Compactor
C) One Volvo L120H Loader
3. Earthwork observed:
A) Drainage utility installation and backfilling operations took place today within the proposed
pavement area located within the westerly portion of the site (see attached Site Sketch, Figure No. 1
and Photo Log). The water quality unit and connecting HDPE pipe had been installed the previous work day (see Field Report No. 12 for additional information). During today’s operations, C.C.
Construction placed previously excavated on-site sand as backfill around the water quality unit and
around/above the HDPE pipe in approximately 12± inch thick lifts up to approximately about Elevation 38± feet. The fill appeared to be generally representative of sample no. FS-1, and
appeared to generally consist of light tan, fine to medium SAND, trace Silt, trace (-) fine Gravel, and trace (-) Roots. The lifts were compacted with about 6 passes of the reversible vibratory plate
compactor. Each lift of backfill appeared firm and stable under the vibratory action of the plate
compactor.
The undersigned performed Field Density Test (FDT) nos. 72 through 82 on the compacted lifts of
backfill (see attached Figure No. 1 for the approximate test locations). The test results indicated that
a satisfactory compaction percentage was achieved at each test location. Refer to the Summary of
Field Density Tests sheet on page 3 of this report for additional information.
