Crack sealing has been done by Walt's Concrete, 3. Reflective buttons were placed by H20 Striping on Friday, 4 January. Centerline striping along Aster & 49,h was no part of the original contract.

Centerline striping became a part of the contract via change order during December 2001 Centerlme striping was'attempted during one of the few available dry December days and is not completely adhering to the concrete surface. I suggest that the centerline of Aster & 49111 be strrped again during a dry, warm day no later than June 15th at the expense of the owner 4. Morse Bros has sand sealed all A C, Jomts. 5.

The two foot wide bottom grading of the bio-swale does not appear to be completed from the newly installed outfall back approximately 200 feet to the east. 2. We need to check the plans to see how many bio-swale olJtfalls were required and there locations to make sure that the amount and locations are correct. Also, the elevations of the concreted outfalls to the wetlands seem to be reversed or flOWing back to the swale instead of a gradient to the wetlands. These elevations should be checked to see that they are correct otherwise the water in the swales will flow out of the outfall pnor to flowing Into the wetlands The Intent was for the water to be retained for a certain amount of time in the bio-swales and then flow Into the wetlands at speCific pOInts, WIth only the highest flows making it to the outfall for flood prevention. 3 Seeding of the bio-swales and spoils piles was not accomplished prior to the winter rains per requirements outlined in the Joint Removal/Fill permit. It IS to late to do this now, but should be attended to in the spnng or fall of this year to brrng them Into compl1ance With the permit conditIons, and/or the mitigation plan. One other thing that we noticed was that the someone, possibly the City of SprIngfield, has maintained a portion of the ditch along Weyerhaeuser's haul road. This appears to have opened some ground water flows on the southwest comer of the mitigated wetlands where the old outfall was located. ThiS area should be reviewed this spring to address the best solution to stop this leakage from the wetlands, while also addressing the issue of offsite flooding. I think that a berm could be placed r' ~ '1g the eXisting neighboring fenceline and at the same time we could dam up the leakage area, We would need to review mitigation plan to see if thiS was supposed to be done by the contractor or If we will need to tackle this as a remedial measure to assure the proper hydro-period for the mitigated wetlands. ) I hope thiS gives you the information you need. Please have Bob Andreasen review this to make sure I have Included all of the items we observed and discussed on site. Let me know If you need any additional information.
