No cut-no fill line

[Kate C.]

Hi all,

I've seen the term "no cut, no-fill line" used in two ways:

1) Essentially as the maximum extent of grading work on site (i.e., where regraded area meets existing grades)

2) The line distinguishing an area of cut from an area of fill (e.g., grading a platform so that half of it cuts into a hill and the other half is on fill--this would be the line separating the two)

Anyone have a sense of the official CLARB use of the term?

Strom/Nathan/Woland use it to describe both of those conditions. I would think of it as a boundary line around any area of cut or fill, and between cut and fill areas. Another way to think about it is any place on the site where your grading rejoins natural grade.
