The Mark at Eugene January 6, 2026 <br />Geotechnical Investigation and Seismic Hazard Study 4 Project No.: 2251077 <br />Eugene, Oregon Landmark Construction, LLC <br />SURFACE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS <br />Surface Conditions <br />The building site is located in the southern half of the previous Peace Health Hospital <br />campus between Hilyard Street and Alder Street and between E 11th Avenue and E <br />13th Avenue. An existing building presently occupies the western edge of the <br />property and paved parking along the south and east side of the property. The center <br />is presently covered in landscaped areas. A review of historic aerial imagery available <br />through Google Earth Pro indicates previous structures previously occupied the <br />landscaped area. The structures have since been demolished. <br />Subsurface Conditions <br />A discussion of the subsurface conditions is provided below. More detailed <br />descriptions of the soil conditions are provided in the boring and test pit logs in <br />Appendix B. A discussion of the local and regional geology is provided in the Seismic <br />Hazard Study in Appendix D. <br />The explorations encountered subsurface profiles that typically include the following <br />strata: <br />• Pavement Section. BH-1, BH-3, and BH-5 were drilled in the pavement at the <br />southeast corner of the site and encountered a pavement section typically <br />consisting of ±4 inches of asphalt concrete (AC) over medium dense crushed <br />rock to crushed gravel extending to ±1.5 feet. <br />• Topsoil/Fill. Soft to stiff silt with trace to some organics (topsoil/fill) was <br />encountered in each of the explorations completed in the landscaped areas <br />(i.e., TP-1, TP-2, TP-3, TP-4, and BH-2) extending to depths of ±12 to <br />16 inches and is typically underlain by a geotextile fabric. <br />• Existing Granular Fill. Additional fill consisting of medium dense to very dense <br />crushed gravel follows the topsoil/fill in TP-1, TP-2, TP-3, TP-4, and BH-2. <br />Based on the location, depths, and observed condition of the fill, it appears <br />the previous structures were demolished, and the excavations backfilled with <br />imported crushed rock. The fill extends to depths ranging from ±3 to greater <br />than 8 feet. <br />• Fine-grained alluvium. Medium stiff, medium plasticity sandy silt with some <br />clay typically extends below the pavement section and the fill to depths of <br />±20 to 35.4 feet. The fine-grained alluvium includes a zone of high plasticity <br />clay at some locations. We noted the high plasticity clay at depths ranging <br />from 7.5 feet (BH-4) 25 feet (BH-2). A lens of medium dense silty sand with <br />some gravel was encountered in BH-3 and other locations included zones of <br />sandy or gravelly silt. <br />
