Do water the grass over the mound in extreme dry conditions, sparingly. Do avoid unnecessary foot traffic over the mound, mow it and stay off af it, This is especialiy true in the winter time. Even human foot traffic can cause frost to penetrate the mound resulting in potential freezing problems. Do inspect your mound system annually for winter kill, (reseed i` necessary) animal damage, (burrowingj�r signs o`potential failure. Do not plant trees or shrubs on the mound system, smailer trees and shrubs may be pianted at the edges. Remember, that sunshine is the key to a healthy mound system.

The mound area it self is not compacted but there is compaction within twenty feet of the toe of the mound. The compaction actually comes right up to the toe of the mound. I have talked with the property owner(Jon Stern) and he does not plan to build on the site for 2-3 years. Steve Schirmers of S-P Testing recommends to rip the soil 18" deep in the compacted area around the mound. This should help loosen up the soil and assure movement through out the soil profile. Enclosed is a copy of the letter received from Mr. Schirmers recommending to rip the soil around the sight. This appears to be the best solution to break up the soil and loosen up the compaction. The soil ripping should only occur in the area of compaction and not in the designated mound site. � . 12/05/2000 12:30 FAX 7634975011 SP TESTING INC �02 S�P TESTING� �N�. Steven B.
