Inspector <br />City of Orono <br />P.O. Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, NN 55323 <br />Re: Washington Scientific Industries <br />Proposed Building Addition <br />Dear Mr* Jacobs: <br />Due to poor soil underlying the proposed building addition, it will be <br />advisable to excavate and replace soil to a depth of approximately 7' below <br />the floor. This will result in an excess of approximately 10,000 cu. yards <br />of fill to be disposed of. <br />Along the south 1200 feet of the west property line there is now a rather <br />abrupt slope where the grade drops down about 6' in a short horizontal <br />distance. This appears to us to be a logical location to place the excess <br />fill. The abrupt bank could be made into a more gentle slope and would <br />improve the drainage in the rear portion of the site, which is now poorly <br />drained. <br />Since you pointed out that this would require a conditional use permit, we <br />would like the City to know that WSI intends to apply for a conditional <br />use permit to do this grading. <br />Prior to approval of a conditional use permit the excavated earth would be <br />stockpiled at a location determined and approved by City staff and the <br />City Engineering Consultant. The extra earth could be removed from the <br />site entirely, but we believe that regrading the west edge of the rear area <br />of the site to a more gentle slope would be a good solution and would result <br />in improved drainage conditions. <br />Yours truly. <br />THE VOGT CORPORATION <br />Edward J.
