This project (designed 1996-7, completed 1999) is located in New Orleans on a very level, if not dead flat, site. The soils on the site are extremely clayy [contain large percentages of clay]. The Civil Engineer, a local firm, appears to have cited neither EPA nor local regulations regarding erosion and sedimentation control in the documents. There were requirements regarding stockpiling of topsoil. The Contractor provided hay bales around catch basins. Is it possible to petition for and be granted a variance for this prerequisite, given the peculiar local site conditions?
