My .02 cents for what its worth.
I believe a dozer is an extremely valuable piece of equipment on a construction site; (ie.) grading, shaping, debris and tree removal, etc., however there are compaction limitations. This is especially true when structures get higher and/or taller.
I received this technical guide notice about two months ago and although it is for Wyoming it can probably be applied nation-wide.
