current stability of the site providecl that it is developed in accordance with ihe recommendations <br /> containcd in lhis rcport. <br /> Erosion laazard <br /> The onsitc soils in the developmcnt area have a modcrate erosion potential due to the slopc of the <br /> property. 7'hc proper usc of"best management practices" BMPs should be used during development <br /> of lhe project to minimizc the potential for erosion and sedimcnt transport. T6e following is a partial <br /> list of BMPs that should bc implemcntcd as part of an erosion control plan for the project. <br /> • Kceping all exposed soils covered whcn not actively worked <br /> • Esteblish a silt fence across the northern exlent of the clearing limits <br /> • Scheduling earth work activities during dry conditions <br /> . Fstablish tcmporary/permanent vcgetation as soon as possiblc after foundation installution and <br /> utility hook-up. <br /> With proper implcmentation of best manegcmcnt practices,thc property may bc dcvcloped without <br /> significant erosion or sediment transpoA. ', <br /> Seismic F�n�ard <br /> Generally, there are four types of potential gc�logic he�ards associated with largc seismic events: 1) <br /> surficial ground rupture; 2) seismically induced landslidec; 3) liquefnction;and 4) ground motion. <br /> 7'he potential for each of these to impact lhe site is discussed below. <br /> Thc lot is not within the vicinity of a known fault zonc. Fault �nnes in the Puget Sound region are <br /> curtcntly being studied by the United Slates Goological Scrvice (USGS) and huve bcen detertnined <br /> to be active and capablc of produciag largc caRhquukes. Much is still to be Icnmcd alxwt thcse fault <br /> systems but it is generally hypothesized that their rccumencc intcrval is several thousar►d ycars. Due <br /> to thc suspccted long rec�urence interval and the unccrtainty of wherc thc next surface rupture may <br /> occur, the potentiel for sur(icial ground rupturc is considercd to be unpredictable and no mitigation is <br /> possiblc or necessary. <br /> Based on the dense, consolidatcd nnture of the glacial advancc outwatih sediments underlying thc <br /> ���p�rty, the risk of n seismically triggered landslide: is considcn:d lo be low. <br /> Batcd on thc dcnsc chamctcristic of thc advancc outwash sand and lack of saturatcd gmund <br /> conditions, it is our opinion that thc risk of liquefac4on on this sitc is low. <br /> Scismic h�.�vds that will affect the hoase will be duc to the intcnsity and duration of thc ground <br /> shaking. Ba�cd on thc cncountcrcct suatigraphy, swctural dcsign of thc projcct should bc consistcnt <br /> with 20091n�erna�ional Building Code(IBC) guidelines. In accordance with 'I aMc 1613.5.2 of the <br /> 2009 IBC, the subjcct sitc would be classificd as Sile Clnss C. <br /> Geotechnical F.nRinccrin�; Rccommendallons <br /> I�rom a geotcchnic;al cnginecring stnndpoint, thc property is considcred to bc suitablc for Ihc planncd <br /> dcvelopmenl of a single family residencc.
