§ 159. Backfilling.
   1.   The Inspector must be notified by the permittee a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the time at which backfilling will be started.
   2.   The backfilling of the trench shall follow as rapidly as possible with 2A modified stone or screenings and the placing of subsurface structures shall be completed in such a manner as will conform to the earth shoulder. The method used to compact shall be a mechanical tamping or vibrating device approved by the Inspector. In all unimproved streets, the surface of the trenches after being filled and settled shall be finished in a most workmanlike manner without needless delay, and shall in every respect be equal in quality, character and materials, to the street surface existing previous to making the excavation. In all improved streets, the crown of the surface must conform to the adjacent street surface until sufficient time has elapsed to warrant the restoration either temporarily or permanently of the pavement surface. Sackfilling must be in layers and tamped every 12 inches.
