8102 EVERGREEN WAY 4 CORNERS - TRASH ENCLOSURES Geotech Report 2025-08-22

DevCo, Inc. ES-6516 April 1, 2019 Page 11 Vault retaining walls should be backfilled with free -draining material or suitable sheet drainage that extends along the height of the walls. The upper one foot of the wall backfill may consist of a less permeable soil, if desired. A perforated drainpipe should be placed along the base of the wall and connected to an approved discharge location. If the elevation of the vault bottom is such that gravity flow to an outlet is not possible, the portions of the vault below the drain should be designed to include hydrostatic pressure. ESNW should observe grading operations for the vault and subgrade conditions prior to concrete forming and pouring. If the soil conditions encountered during construction differ from those anticipated, supplementary recommendations may be provided. ESNW should be contacted to review the final vault design to confirm appropriate geotechnical parameters have been incorporated. Preliminary Pavement Sections The performance of site pavements is largely related to the condition of the underlying subgrade. To ensure adequate pavement performance, the subgrade should be in a firm and unyielding condition when subjected to proofrolling with a loaded dump truck. Structural fill in pavement areas should be compacted to the specifications previously detailed in this report. Soft, wet, or otherwise unsuitable subgrade areas may still exist after base grading activities. Areas containing unsuitable or yielding subgrade conditions will require remedial measures, such as overexcavation and/or placement of thicker crushed rock or structural fill sections, prior to pavement. We anticipate new pavement sections will be subjected primarily to passenger vehicle traffic. For lightly loaded pavement areas subjected primarily to passenger vehicles, the following preliminary pavement sections may be considered: • A minimum of two inches of hot -mix asphalt (HMA) placed over four inches of crushed rock base (CRB), or; • A minimum of two inches of HMA placed over three inches of asphalt -treated base (ATB). Heavier traffic areas generally require thicker pavement sections depending on site usage, pavement life expectancy, and site traffic. For preliminary design purposes, the following pavement sections for occasional truck traffic and access roadways areas may be considered: • Three inches of HMA placed over six inches of CRIB, or; • Three inches of HMA placed over four -and -one-half inches of ATB. A representative of ESNW should be requested to observe subgrade conditions prior to placement of CRIB or ATB. As necessary, supplemental recommendations for achieving subgrade stability and drainage can be provided. If on -site roads will be constructed with an inverted crown, additional drainage measures may be recommended to assist in maintaining road subgrade and pavement stability. Earth Solutions NW, LLC
