Soil compaction Sample Clauses

Soil compaction. The measures for mitigating soil compaction shall apply only to cultivated land and land that Hydro-Québec turns over to cultivation upon completion of construction. Under certain unfavorable conditions (soaked soil, winter thaw and other critical conditions), construction work may compact the soil to a greater or lesser degree, depending upon stoniness, vegetation and soil type. To minimize damage, the following measures shall be taken: • Schedule the work during seasons when the bearing capacity of the soil is best. • Restrict access to the work site by certain vehicles or machinery when the bearing capacity of the soil is inadequate. • Only use vehicles or machinery that are tracked or have extra-wide tires. • Limit machine traffic to one lane and minimize the number of trips. • Use a load-bearing mat or mattress. • Suspend certain phases of the work when conditions are unsatisfactory. • Use any other methods recommended by the agricultural specialist. Should soil compaction occur despite these measures, Hydro-Québec shall decompact the soil when the work is completed using the measures described in section 3.4.6 on site restoration.‌‌ In temporary work areas in woodlands, Hydro-Québec shall avoid activities that might cause soil compaction. Should soil compaction occur despite preventive measures agreed upon with the landowner, Hydro-Québec shall loosen the soil when its use of the temporary work area has ended.
