Topography. Altering the existing topography of the Property by digging, plowing, disking, or otherwise disturbing the surface is prohibited, unless Grantee determines such requested action will be carried out consistent with the Restoration Plan and will be carried out in a manner that protects the conservation values. Grantor shall obtain Grantee’s written permission in advance of commencing such action.
Topography. The Long Beach Peninsula exhibits long and low parallel north-south dune ridges🕈 interspersed with shallow xxxxx. The following dune forms are found in this landscape: foredune, deflation plain, sand hummock🕈, blowout🕈, dune ridge, and swale🕈. (Xxxxxxxxx, 1984) From west to east, first there is a broad and gradually sloping ocean beach. The foredune is a ridge of sand parallel to the ocean beach and located just above the limit of ordinary wave action. Behind the foredune is a low-lying deflation plain where interdunal wetlands form at surface elevations of 14 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929🕈 (NGVD29🕈) or lower. To the east of the deflation plain is the historic foredune, a dune ridge. The foredune, deflation plain, and dune ridge comprise the city’s dune area, or dune complex, averaging about 2,000 feet in width. The ocean floor from the shore outward to approximately seven (7) miles is considered the inner (nearshore-shallow) continental shelf🕈 with a relatively flat slope and depths up to 131 feet. West of the inner shelf is the midshelf, an irregular band varying in width from seven (7) to 17 miles, also of a relatively flat slope and with depths of 131 to 656 feet. Beyond the midshelf is a the relatively narrow mesobenthal🕈 upper continental slope with depths of 656 to 2,297 feet, and finally is the bathybenthal🕈 lower to toe of the continental slope with depths of 2,297 to 11,500 feet. The substrate of the inner shelf is sand; the substrate of the midshelf and the mesobenthal is sand and mud with some rock outcropping; and the substrate of the bathybental is mud.

Topography. 1.1.3 Geomorphology and soils
Topography. Contractor has visually surveyed the general surface conditions of the Project Site topography and represents that, subject to Unforeseen Subsurface Conditions, the same are sufficient for Contractor to construct the Project and perform the Work. Contractor will be responsible for clearance of the Project Site, including the removal of obstructions. Contractor will be responsible for access road construction as described in the Scope of Work. Contractor shall provide for the procurement of or disposal of, as necessary, all soil, gravel and similar materials required for the performance of or otherwise in connection with the Work. Contractor will provide adequate treatment of and protection against water runoff resulting from Contractor’s and its Subcontractor’s work. Contractor will provide for the collection, treatment and disposal of groundwater resulting from Contractor’s and its Subcontractors’ work.
Topography. There shall be no ditching; draining; diking; filling; excavating; removal of topsoil, sand, gravel, rock, or other materials; or any change in the topography of the land in any manner, unless in accordance with the farm conservation plan for agricultural use on the Protected Property referenced in Paragraph C above.
Topography. Development would be clustered on existing prominent terraces to the maximum extent practicable in order to minimize development in steeper areas that would require more grading. Under Alternative 1, 2, or 3A, a substantial portion of the Red Rock waste rock pile area would be preserved in a park, rather than grading its slopes to make it suitable for development. Potentially unstable slopes in the waste rock pile would be graded as necessary to improve public safety. Additional geotechnical investigations will be performed in proposed Development Area A to determine best construction practices as they relate to the coal waste pile. Engineering solutions could involve measures to either strengthen the soil or to transmit structural loads to the underlying native soil. Driven piles are a typical solution for supporting residential structures located on weak soil. Ground improvement options could include a preload surcharge, where excess fill would be placed on proposed building areas to compress and densify the soil over time, producing a stronger, less compressible subgrade. Ground improvement, over-excavation or a combination of these methods would likely be required to provide a stable subgrade for the construction of roads and utilities through the area where the coal waste pile is located. Specific geotechnical recommendations for pavements and utilities will be developed in the design phase if development is proposed within Area A. The applicant proposes to maximize use of on-site sources of fill material to minimize the number of haul trips to/from the site. The proposal also includes using excess excavated material and stockpiled soils to reclaim on-site borrow areas. Under Alternative 1 or 2, construction haul routes and plans will be submitted to the City of Cle Elum Public Works Director for approval prior to the start of construction activity. As development proceeds, if it is determined that blasting will be needed in localized areas, a detailed blast specification would be prepared by a Project Engineer to integrate the findings and recommendations of the Geotechnical Evaluation (Aspect Consulting, October 2009) and the Coal Mine Hazards Risk Assessment (Subterra, Inc., October 2009), and to outline blasting objectives and activities for the project. The blasting contractor would then prepare a site-specific blast plan that identifies all details and procedures for blasting on-site. Soil and rock slopes created by blasting (if any) shall be ma...
Topography. The physical features and shape of the earth’s surface. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL): A tool for establishing the maximum allowable loadings of a particular pollutant into a surface water body to meet predetermined water quality criteria. It is based on the sum of the individual point and non-point pollutant allocations into a specific water body, along with a margin of safety, that is required to attain water quality goals. The margin of safety reflects the scientific uncertainty in the actual measurement of the point and non-point loadings and assimilative capacity of the water body.
Topography. The landform lies relatively flat along the most northerly section, and then slopes gently downwards in a south easterly direction towards Eglwys Brewis Road. The land falls from 44m AOD to 34m AOD over a distance of approximately 310m. At Boverton Brook, the site rises to 36m AOD southwards and at Llanmaes Brook, the site rises again to approximately 39m AOD eastwards.

Topography. The mapping data shall include natural positions on the earth’s surface within the project limits that determine the configuration of the terrain. The positions will be in the form of points and break lines that locate vertical and horizontal transitions.
