August 26, 2016 <br /> HWA Project No. 2016-P101-21 <br /> The third boring will be drilled in the grassy area behind the guard rail, near the northern <br /> most proposed manhole structure. This boring will also be within the WSDOT right of <br /> way and will be drilled with a track mounted drill rig. <br /> All exploration activities will be monitored full time by a HWA geotechnical engineer or <br /> geologist. We expect that drilling of the three (3)proposed borings and one (1)well <br /> install will take approximately 2 working days. <br /> • Generate Boring Logs and Conduct Laboratory Testing: All of the soil samples <br /> retrieved from our explorations will be sealed in plastic bags and taken to our Bothell, <br /> Washington laboratory for further examination and testing. Selected soil samples will be <br /> tested to determine relevant engineering and index properties for our engineering <br /> analyses. Soil and laboratory test information will be presented on summary boring logs <br /> that will be generated upon completion of our exploration program. <br /> • Groundwater Monitoring: HWA will make up to 3 site visits to collect groundwater <br /> readings from the transducer installed in the proposed monitoring well. Groundwater <br /> monitoring will be conducted for a period of 6 months from the installation of the well. <br /> • Develop Geologic Interpretation: HWA will construct a geologic profile across the <br /> proposed site based on the information obtained from the above described geotechnical <br /> borings. This profile will be provided in the geotechnical report and will be used for <br /> design calculations. <br /> Geotechnical Engineering <br /> This work will include the following subtasks. <br /> • Engineering Analysis: HWA will evaluate the data derived from our field investigations <br /> and laboratory testing to complete our engineering analysis. Our engineering analysis <br /> will include development of seismic design parameters, foundation design, uplift <br /> evaluations, dewatering analysis, temporary shoring earth pressures and permanent earth <br /> pressures. <br /> • Internal QA/QC: HWA will have all design calculations and recommendations <br /> reviewed by a senior principal prior to distribution to the design team or the CITY. <br /> • Geotechnical Engineering Report: HWA will generate a draft and final geotechnical <br /> engineering report that will contain the results of the geotechnical engineering <br /> investigation, including description of surface and subsurface conditions; a site plan <br /> showing exploration locations and other pertinent features; summary boring logs; and <br /> Snohomish River Overflow Structure R4 <br />
