i&666 •R ENGINEERING high silt content approximately 26 percent. The enclosed laboratory testing sheets in Appendix B graphically present our test results. 3.4 GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS At the time of exploration (March 2023), groundwater was encountered at 4.2 feet below ground surface flags). Because our explorations were performed during an extended period generally wet weather, these observed groundwater conditions may closely represent the yearly high levels; somewhat lower levels probably occur during the summer and early fall months. At all times of the year, groundwater levels would likely fluctuate in response to precipitation patterns, off -site construction activities, and site utilization. 3.5 SUBSURFACE CONTAMINATION During our exploration program, we did not visually identify any contaminated soil within the subject site. 4.0 CONCLUSIONSAND The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on our understanding of the currently proposed utilization of the project site, as derived from preliminary layout drawings, written information, and verbal information supplied to us. Consequently, if any changes are made in the currently proposed project, we may need to modify our conclusions and recommendations contained herein to reflect those changes. 4.1 SITE PREPARATION Preparation of the project site will involve temporary drainage, excavations, erosion control, dewatering, and subgrade compaction. The paragraphs below discuss our geotechnical comments and recommendations concerning site preparation. MP ENGINEERING, PLLC MPGEOTECH.COM
