Local Conditions for Sand Delivery in Florien
Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part. About 67 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the drop onto firm ground helps avoid a muddy mess.
About 29 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can move the ground, but frost here is not significant. Base layers do not need to be as deep as in colder regions.
Soils mapped in the Florien area are commonly well drained and soak water up quickly. This means less drainage stone is needed under the surface layer.
