Setback on #5

Unfortunately, we had a small setback while backfilling the new wall on #5. There was not enough undisturbed soil to anchor the tiebacks holding about a 30 foot section of the wall. This resulted in the wall bowing out in this area. We will have to excavate along this section of wall in order to straighten it. Once the wall is straightened, we will then be installing longer tiebacks with more substantial concrete to secure the wall. We are disappointed with this setback but feel confident we will be able to rectify the problem.
