Ehkk <br />Surficial fill was encountered in TP-8, located near the southeast corner of the <br />property. The fill was encountered at the ground surface, extending ±1 foot below <br />grade. The fill consists of medium dense silty gravel to gravelly silt with trace sand. <br />Based on its location and apparent limited extent, we anticipate the fill could be <br />side-cast material from construction of the adjacent, small substation. <br />Snornhk <br />A topsoil layer was encountered in most test pits extending to a depth of ±1 to <br />2 feet. The topsoil consists of low to medium plasticity silt or silt with some clay. It <br />was typically dry to damp and stiff to very stiff at the time of the exploration. The <br />topsoil is similar to the underlying alluvial silt (described below), but was distinguished <br />primarily because of its blocky texture and scattered to abundant fine roots. <br />Rhks <br />Alluvial silt was encountered in all the test pits, directly below the ground surface or <br />underlying the topsoil (or fill at TP-8). The silt stratum extended to the maximum <br />exploration depth at TP-2 through TP-5, and TP-8 through TP-10 (up to ±12 feet <br />below exiting grades). <br />The upper portion of the silt is clayey with low to medium plasticity. Atterberg limits <br />tests (described below) indicate the upper silty soil has a plasticity index (PI) ranging <br />from 8 to 20 and corresponding USCS classification of ML or MH. The shallow silt <br />was typically damp to moist and stiff to very stiff at the time of the investigation. <br />In most test pits, the silt has lower plasticity with trace to some sand below depths <br />ranging from ±4.5 to 8.5 feet. Silty sand or sandy silt was encountered in TP-5 and <br />TP-8 below ±7 to 8 feet. <br />R`mcxFq`udk`mcBnaakdr <br />Dense sandy gravel and cobbles were encountered in TP-1, TP-6, and TP-7 below <br />depths ranging from ±4.5 to 5.5 feet. Where encountered, the gravel stratum <br />extended below the bottom of the explorations. Borings completed on adjacent <br />properties (by others) indicate the gravel stratum extends to a depth of at least <br />±25 feet. <br />Ground Water <br />No seepage or ground water infiltration was encountered to the maximum depth of <br />the current explorations. However moist conditions were typically noted at shallow <br />depths in most test pits. Wet soil conditions were observed within the gravel stratum <br />encountered below ±4.5 to 5.5 feet in TP-1, TP-6, and TP-7. <br />We obtained well logs from borings drilled by others on adjacent properties to the <br />north and south of the subject property. The logs from those borings indicate ground <br />water was encountered at depths of ±9 to 10 feet for borings drilled in December <br />1991, when the ground water is expected to be shallower.
