Moving Fill Dirt to NEW Places - - PAGE 61.
June 8, 2018: The bull dozer with GPS
tracking is laying out the precise location of the street on the north side of
lots 22 & 23.
He is working on the north side of the street between the manhole for the
sanitary sewer and what will eventually be the curb and gutter for the storm
drain. The fill dirt is covering the concrete fixtures of the manhole that
are below the ultimate street level. That RUSTY steel seen in the sun
light is just on this side the bull dozer track. It is the actual man hole
access and lid for the chamber below. All these man holes are connected by pipes
already down low from the manhole cover. The effluent flows down hill to
the city sewer pump station that is the natural area northwest of lot 23.
This view is from the end of the access road looking northeast where a lot
of dirt is waiting to be spread out.
All of those concrete pipes and fixtures for storm drains will find their
homes as the streets are created by the GPS-guided dozer.
The scoop shovels and dump trucks are doing a lot of work to move the soil
where it is needed.
At the center of this photo are some GREEN PVC PIPES that are used to
connect the sanitary sewer man holes together.
June 9, 2018: The morning light shows
more of the work done yesterday. This view looking from the access road
shows the work of the GPS dozer to create the street for lots 22 & 23 behind
our house. The level of the ground is lower than the surrounding soil to
accept the WHITE crushed shell fill that is under most paved streets in this
part of Florida. There as few dirt piles between the drainage ditch and
the road that was graded yesterday.
Most of the concrete pipes have moved to there streets across the
property.
