ADaPT En¢ineerio¢, Inc. <br />PROJECT DF.SCRIPTION <br />The host parcel is located at 8215 Droad���ay in Lverett, Washington. Currcntly, the host site is occupied <br />I-5 Trailer Sales, Feely Gn:erprises. The proposcd tower lease area is loc: �ed at the northeast po:tion of <br />the host property in an undevelopcd area. The topography of the lease arca slopes in :i : southwest to the <br />northeast dircction. The ground surface �! the oroposed tower lease is covered by blackberry bushes, <br />concrete debris, and wood materials. The proposed tower leasc area can be acccssed via a paved <br />driveway o(f of Broadway. The proposed Icase area abuts a large retaiuing wall for Interstate 5 which is <br />located east of the site. Wc undcrstand VoiceStream Witeless proposes to construct a monopolc <br />communication tower and associatcd equipment building or cabinets. Tlie project site and su:-rounding <br />arca are showm on the attached sitc vicinity map (Location Map, Pigure I). The attached Site and <br />Exploration Plan (Figure 2) shows the approximate location of ihc proposcd ccllular tower Icasc area in <br />rclation to other site features. <br />It should be emphasized that the com:lusions and recommcndations containcd in this report arc based on <br />our undcrstanding of the currently proposed utilization oC the project sitc, as dcrivcd from writtcn <br />information supplied to us by VoiccStream Wireless. Consequently, if any changes are made to thc <br />project, we recomrrend that wc review the changcs and modify our recommcndations, if appropriate, to <br />re(lectthosc changes. <br />EXPLORATORY METIiODS <br />Wc explored surface and subsurface conditions at thc projcct site on April 6 2000. Our surface <br />exploration consistcd of a visual site reconr.aissance. Our subsurface exploration consisted of advancing <br />onc suil tcst buring to a dcpth of approximatcly 28.5-fcet below the cxisting site grade. The location of <br />the boring, designated as II-1, is sho�m on the attached Sile and Exploration Plan (Figure 2). <br />The specific locatian and depth of the cxploration performed was selccted in relation to the proposed site <br />fcawres, under the constraints of budget and sitc acccss. Thc location of thc boring and other features <br />shown on Pigurc 2 were obtained by hand taping from existing site features. As such, the exploration <br />location shown on Figure 2 should be considered accuratc to the degree implied by the mcasuring <br />methods used. <br />Bor•rng Afelliorls <br />Doring B-1 was advanced on April 6, 2000 using a mobilc drill rig. 1'he drill rig was operated by an <br />indepcndent company working undcr subconh•act to ADaPT. A gcotechnical enginecr from our firm <br />continuously observed the boring, obtained representalivc soil samp]es, and logged the subsurface <br />conditions. Aftcr the boring was complcted, the borehole was backfilled with a mixture of soil cuttings <br />and bentonite chips. <br />VaiceS�ream Wirdess May I8, 2000 <br />ADaPT Fmjcct No. WA00-0034 P°� � <br />
