Borings were <br /> extended to a maximum depth of 41'/2 feet.The site properties below the boring depth to 100 feet were <br /> estimated based on our experience and knowledge of geologic conditions of the general area. <br /> 2 These values were obtained using online seismic design maps and tools provided by the Applied <br /> Technology Council (https://hazards.atcouncil.orq/) which reference ASCE 7-10 values for the 2015 IBC <br /> edition. <br /> 3 <br /> Surface-Fault Rupture <br /> The hazard of damage from onsite fault rupture appears to be low based on review of the USGS <br /> Earthquake Hazards Program Quaternary Faults and Folds Database available online <br /> (https://usgs.maps.arcqis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=5a6038b3a1684561 a9b0aadf <br /> 88412fcf) accessed on July 31, 2020. The closest mapped fault is the northernmost splay of the <br /> South Whidbey Island fault zone, which lies approximately 21/2 miles to the southwest, and passes <br /> beneath Paine Field. This fault splay (and the fault zone) trends northwest-southeast. <br /> Responsive • Resourceful • Reliable 13 <br />
