a brief report outlining the issues we discussed. We will be unearthing the footing of that wall today to <br />determine options for any necessary corrections prior to Veit's departure. The concrete basement floor <br />and walls of the 716 building will be removed on Friday as well as backfilling. On Monday, we will <br />address the fuel oil tank and final cleanup of the site. <br />^ Veit excavated the footings on the brick wall next to the butcher building today. They are only 22 <br />inches down and should be 42 inches to meet the frost footing requirements. Bob and I talked about <br />this on Thursday. Please talk to Bob and let him know about the footing depth. Some type of insulation <br />will need to be installed to prevent the footing from heaving from frost action. <br />^ Veit exposed the fuel tank but left it in place. We needed to determine if any fuel was in the tank. <br />There was only about 6 inches in the bottom and that will be pumped out prior to removal on Monday. <br />Luckily, the tank is very small and hopefully there is no soil contamination. It does have transit board <br />around it for fire proofing purpose. That has high levels of asbestos in it and will have to be removed <br />with a lined truck. Veit is prepared to handle that on Monday as well. <br />^ The last of the 716 building basement should be loaded out on Monday. <br />^ Overall, the project is taking a little longer than expected, however, that is due to the difficulty in building <br />separation. Until we unearth the tank on Monday, we really won't know the time issue. I have a petroleum <br />inspector scheduled for a Monday visit. <br />Week of January 9, 2012 <br />^ Jan 12: Veit is in the process of installing the shallow footing insulation per Braun's recommendation. <br />They said Bob was on site to supervise the installation. I left Bob a message to get back to me, I wanted <br />to make sure he was satisfied. <br />^ Veit agrees that when they return in the spring to do the permanent utility cuts, that would be a <br />better time to take the proctor tests for soil compaction. One season of frost -thaw will help the site <br />prior to surfacing. Braun's engineer, Mark also agrees with that plan. <br />^ Jason from Braun emailed you & Bob a copy of wall stability and recommended maintenance. You <br />should get a hard copy in the mail as well. If you don't, please let me know. <br />^ I will be meeting with Veit next week to get copies of manifests and change orders for the tank <br />removal and asbestos the removal. <br />^ Also street sweeping took place yesterday. <br />^ I have not heard anything from Carlson on the DRO soil samples yet. <br />If you need any clarifications on the above information, let me know.
