The base should be compacted every 6".

6. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

   Permeable pavements may give urban trees the rooting space they need to grow to full size. A "structural-soil" pavement base combines structural aggregate with soil; a porous surface admits vital air and water to the rooting zone. This integrates healthy ecology and thriving cities, with the living tree canopy above, the city's traffic on the ...
