The existing PCSs, consisting of approximately twenty (20) acres, shall be tilled four (4) times during the 2007 growing season. The first tilling shall take place within 15 days of notice to proceed, weather permitting, with the fourth tilling taking place approximately 1 Oct 07. PCSs introduced during the growing season shall be tilled as many times that remain in the growing season; evenly spaced between the first and fourth tilling, weather permitting. 1.1.2. Remove Debris/Police Grounds. The Contractor shall remove material such as concrete, rebar, wood, or other inert construction debris that may be present in some of the PCSs requiring tilling. The Contractor shall remove these materials as they become evident from tilling and properly dispose of them at an offbase location in accordance with existing local, state, and federal regulations. 1.1.3. Grounds Maintenance: The boundaries of the LTF (Exhibit A) are the berms along the west (A-B), north (A-D), and east (C-D).
