ove e 2 923-1175 Eoundation area indicated a minimum of 49 exploration� were required. Using the original ' 15 test pit exploraHons,34 additional test pit excavations would be required to satisfy HUD requiremenb. The test pit� werc excavated adjacent to the proposed buildinga and were located et intervals considered appropriste to fully characcerize the geotechnical site � condiHons throughout the limib oE the project. The test pib were not located within the footprint oE the buildings to avoid disruption and degradation of future foundaHon bearing eoils. Locating the test pib oubtde of the building faotprint and at spacial intervals � eufficient to fully charederfze the projeet geotechnical condiNona are coneldered atandard geoteclm[cel engineerL�g care and pracrice. , The purpoee of this atudy was to explore the aoil and groundwater conditions at the site by ezcaveting the additional test�pib and to confirm our odginal geotechntcal engineering � conclutione and recommendationa. Envitonmental sampling and testing of the soil or + groundwater were not within the scope of this study. Baaed on the mults of thia etudy, our odginal geotechnical engineeriug conclusions and recommendaHons remain applicable to the current project acheme and the proposed development appean to be feasible for the obaerved site condiHonn. � SITB LOCATION The site consisb of appronimately 15 actea and ia located in the eouthweet quadrant of the i intenecNon of Casino Road and Cherry Wsy in Everett, Waehington. 'fhe aite genetally alopee to the west from a high of 720 feet elevatlon along the east property line to a low of 6B4 feet along the weat property Ifne. A small wetland area is located in the central pottion i � of the property. PROPOSSD DBVBLOPM6NT • We undentand the proposed development will conaiat of thirty wood-frame, residentia.! atructures,acceeeory utility installationa, and paved roadwaye and parking atalla. Five of the atructuree will be two-atory buildinga. We expect that the building fo�ndation loads will be telaHvely light and that below grade etructuree will not be required. Grading for the project,baaed on our review of the Site Plan ahould involve cub and fills of le�s than six feet. �IELD BXPLORATION , Cenerd The project is being financed through HUD. Minimum soila report tequirements as sHpulated by HUD require "at least ane boring must be made for every 2,500 aq. ft. of foundatiort area". Thia would have required at leaat 49 explorations fur th{e project. 15 test pib were ezcavated during our previoue eite investigation a� shown on Figure 2. An addiHonal 34 teat pib were excavated to satisfy HUD requiremenb during this study, also ahown an Figure 2. Due to the shallow depth to competent bearing soil, backhoe excavated test pib were performed in lieu of boringa. Golder Assoelafes
