Total grading for the project is
approximately 29,148 cubic yards (CY), of which 28,341 CY will be remedial. Net 807 non remediated
A very basic calc on the Tramonto slide - it measures ~180,000 SF on Zimas. With a median

earth mass, weighing roughly that much in tonnes. Even with the approximation, this is no joke.
If improperly disturbed, a massive landslide could be triggered with perilous consequences.
Proposals to build several homes under these conditions cannot and should not be a subject to
