Asphalt Removal Complete

The excavation contractor (Reuwer and Son Excavating LLC) has removed the section of the parking lot where the new building will be located. Initial grading is complete. The old septic tank has been removed as well as an even older one we knew nothing about. Some soft areas in the construction site were revealed by the core samples and must be excavated and refilled with suitable soil before we can start digging the footings. Additional fill dirt will be required to achieve the final grade contours. This dirt will be taken from the ridge in the rear of the Shiloh Cemetary. By using our dirt we reduce the cost of the fill. Reducing the ridge will create more usable area in the cemetary.
