We have Inspected the subject new const~ctlon on December 9,15, and 17, 1999 with Mr .Walt Drews of
\ Grassroots The focus of our inspections' was the grading and drainage at the back of the house We have
'previously Inspected thiS house at least tWice dunng construction ~ ooce to review the footing construction and
again to review construction of the subsurface drain along the back and sides of the foundation
'.I t-f' I.;: .to. - 1
! Jo. I" j I Ii 1'"
Our understanding IS that the Clty'of S.pnngfleld IS allOWing a deViation from the standard minimum clearance
'from ascending slopes If drainage IS properly routed away !rom the found,atlon, -
" ' Our opinion IS that the setback modification IS acceptable and we recommend approval of the site gradmg as of
December 17, 1999 for the follOWing reasons
, .
1 ,The ground surface has been graded to a relatively even slope to avoid vertical or very steep slopes,
2 A swale has been constructed at or near the toe of the slope (away from the foundation) that drams
surface runoff away from the 'house, J -
3 The ground slopes away from the foundation stem wall to the swale, '
~ ,The exposed, final graded SOil slopes are SUitable for final treatment such as seeding or application of
some other surface treatment to reduce surlace erOSion, and
5 We^have not observed any groundwater seepage out of the exposed 5011 slopes dUring these last two
months of heavy raln~all ". I
, Due to the shallow depth to bedrock, groundwater locatIOn, and surface Irregulanty, there IS little hazard of slope
movemen,t at the site ~Irectly behind the house -
Sincerely,
"

We have Inspected the subject new construction on December 9, 15. and 17, 1999 With Mr Walt Drews of
,Grass roots The focus of our inspections was the grading and drainage at the back of the house We have
previously Inspected thiS house at least twice dUring construction - once to review the footmg construction and '
agam to reView construction of the subsurface drain along the back and Sides of the foundation. - '
Ow opinion IS that a deViation from the usual setback reqUIrements from ascendmg slopes 15 acceptable and we
recommend approval of the site grading as of December 17, 1999 for the follOWing reasons.
\ -.
'.
1 The ground surface has been graded to a relatively even slope to avoid vertical or ve,ry steep slopes,
2 A swale has been constructed at or near the toe of the slope (away from the foundation) that drains
, surface runoff away from the house, '
. 3 The ground slopes away from the foundation stem wall to the swale,
. 4 The exposed, final graded SOIl slopes are SUitable for final treatment such as seeding or applicatIOn of
some other surface treatment to reduce surtace' eroSIOn,
,5, We have notobserved any groundwater seepage out of the exposed soil slopes dunng these last three
months of'heavy rainfall, and
.: 6, Bedrock IS very near ground surface With an Irregular sOIVrock mterface
,
We recommelld,sepedmg th~ exposed slopes or application of some other type of surface erosion control as
soon as weather permits Our approval IS contingent on the owner's agreement that there ~!II no further earth
movement or SOil disturbance of any slopes behind the house '
