P.O.Box 82243 <br /> Cobalt Kenmore,Washington 98028 <br /> Geosciences (206)3314097 <br /> February 13,2018 <br /> Mr.Paul Bustard <br /> Bustard Custom Construction <br /> PO Box 1243 <br /> Marysville,WA 98270 <br /> RE: Stormwater Management Recommendations <br /> Proposed 5-Lot Short Plat <br /> 1601 Florida Drive <br /> Everett,Washington <br /> Dear Mr.Hardt, <br /> In accordance with your authorization, Cobalt Geosciences, LLC has prepared this letter to <br /> present our stormwater management recommendations for the proposed 5-lot short plat at the <br /> referenced location. In preparation of this report, we have reviewed a geotechnical report <br /> prepared by Liu and Associates dated September 10,2017. <br /> Site and Project Description <br /> The site is located at 1601 Florida Drive in Everett, Washington. The site consists of one <br /> irregularly shaped parcel(No.00393900701800) with a total area of about 0.63 acres. <br /> The south portion of the site is developed with a single-family residence and driveway. The <br /> remainder of the property is vegetated with grasses, ferns, blackberry vines, and small diameter <br /> trees. The site slopes downward toward the east and southeast at magnitudes of less than 10 <br /> percent and topographic relief of about 8 feet. <br /> The site is bordered to the northeast and southwest by single-family residences,to the northwest <br /> by a paved trail,and to the southeast by Florida Drive. <br /> The project includes construction of 5 new single-family residences within the property. We <br /> anticipate that the new residences will be multi-story, wood-framed, and have crawlspace areas. <br /> A new permeable pavement access road will extend onto to the site along the northeast property <br /> line. <br /> Stormwater management systems will include local infiltration trenches, permeable pavements, <br /> and connection to City infrastructure. <br /> Area Geology <br /> The Geologic Map of the Everett Quadrangle, indicates that the site is underlain by Vashon <br /> Glacial Till. <br /> Vashon Glacial Till is typically characterized by an unsorted, non-stratified mixture of clay, silt, <br /> sand,gravel, cobbles and boulders in variable quantities. These materials are typically dense and <br /> relatively impermeable. The poor sorting reflects the mixing of the materials as these sediments <br /> were overridden and incorporated by the glacial ice. <br />
