PROJECT AND SITE CONDITIONS <br /> ' I.0 INTRODUCTION <br /> , 'Ihls report presen[s the results of our subsurface exploration, geologic hazards, infiltration <br /> potential, and preliminazy geotechnical engineering studies for the proposed new elementary <br /> , school. The site location is shown on the "Vicinity Map," Figure 1, and the approximate <br /> locations of exploration borings completed for this study are shown on the "Site and <br /> Exploration Plan," Figure 2. Logs of the subsurface explorations completed for this study are <br /> � included in the Appendix. <br /> 1.1 Purpose and Scope <br /> 1 The purpose of this study was to provide geotechnical engineering design recommendations to <br /> be utilized in the design of the project, and to provide a preluninary evaluation of the <br /> t feasibility of storm water infiltration on the site. This study included a review of selected <br /> available geologic literature, advancing seven exploration borings, installing one ground water <br /> , well, and performing geologic studies to assess the rype, thickness, disUibution, and physical <br /> properties of the subsurface sed'unents and shallow ground water. Geotechnical engineering <br /> studies were completed to establish recommendations for the type of suitable foundations and <br /> ' tloors, allowable foundation soil bearing pressure, anticipated foundation and floor settlement, <br /> pavement recommendations, infiltra[ion feasibility, aod drainage considerations. This report <br /> summarizes our fieldwork and offers recommendations based on our present understanding of <br /> ' the project. We recommend that we be allowed to review the recommendations presentr.' in <br /> this report and revise them, if .ieeded, when a project design has been finalized. <br /> � 1.2 Authorization <br /> Authorization to proceed with this smdy was granted by the Everett School District No. 2 <br /> , (District) by means of an executed purchase order. Our work was completed in general <br /> accordance with our scope of work and cost proposal dated August 16, 2010. This report has <br /> ' been prepared for the exclusive use of the District and its agents for specific application to this <br /> project. Within the limitations of scope, scbedule, and budget, our services have been <br /> performed in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical engineerin� and engineering <br /> , geology practices iu zffect in 'his area at the time our report was prepared. No other warranty, <br /> express or implied, is made. <br /> , <br /> ISeptember 22, 2010 � ASSOCIATED EARTH SCIFNCFS, INC. <br /> PWq/rD KEIGtlP5JA2-Vrn�rttn20l00255iK/IWP Page � <br /> ' <br />
