An area where fill dirt is dug out from and hauled to another location on or near the project site.
An area, typically off-site or in a low area of the project, where suitable fill material is excavated and transported to locations requiring fill. Borrow material must be tested and approved by the geotechnical engineer for the intended use. When a project requires more fill than the excavation generates, borrow material must be imported from approved sources.
On-site cut material was insufficient for the embankment, requiring a borrow pit to be developed in the adjacent parcel.
