Excavation Bulletin for Construction Work

This document is an Excavation Bulletin that outlines the requirements for construction work involving excavation near adjacent properties and District infrastructure. It specifies that a site-specific shoring design and specifications must be provided by a professional geotechnical engineer. The general contractor is responsible for ensuring adherence to these designs. The bulletin details the necessary submissions for excavation permits, including letters of assurance for geotechnical work, ink-sealed shoring designs for significant vertical cuts, and a detailed survey of existing structures and trees. It also explains that some construction types may not require shoring designs but still need to demonstrate safety through diagrams. The document emphasizes the importance of on-site supervision by a registered professional and groundwater management to prevent impacts on adjacent properties. Non-compliance with these requirements can lead to enforcement actions, including stop-work orders.
