GEOTECHNICAL ENOINEERINO STUDY <br /> Lots 10, 11, 1Z, and 13 of S�abrook�Hiphiands '� <br /> Oc�an Awnua and Chinook Driw <br /> Ewrott, Washinpton . <br /> This report presents the flndings and recommendadons of our peotechnical engineerinp study for <br /> the four residentlal lots in the Seobrooke H(ghlands aubdfvision fn Evarett. The peneral locadon ot <br /> the s(te is illustrated nn the�/icin(ry Map, Plate 1. <br /> The developmant of the property is in the plannfn� atags, and deta(led plans wero not made <br /> available to us. The lot plans provided to ua show lot Iines and old topopraphy. We underttand <br /> that each lot will be developad with a residence. The houae footprinta have not been datertnined. <br /> SITE CONDITIONS <br /> u ace <br /> The four lots are located in fhe Seabrooke Hfghlands subdivialon, whfch overiooks Edpewater and <br /> the Puqet Sound. The southem lots, 10 and 11, are aeparated irom Lota 12 and 13 by Chinook <br /> Ddve, and Ocean Avenue borders the entlre site to the east Atl four lots aro undeveloped and <br /> covered with low to medium-hfph praas. Two larpe Veas aro located on the eaatem portion of Lot <br /> 13, but no Vees grow on the othar lota. Tha topopraphy of the site and eurroundfnp aroa qeneraily <br /> genUy descends to the north, and the two lots to the south ot Chinook Drive aro relatively flat <br /> Residences have been constructed on the propeNes to fha south of the site, and ropradinp on <br /> these adJacent sites has resulted fn aoma ahort fill alopes alonp the southem edps of Lots 10 and <br /> 11. It appears from the provided plot maps and our fisld roconnalaaancs tl�at parta of theae flll <br /> slopes may (ntrude onto Lot 10. The aubdivfaion lob to the weat of ths tubJect site aro <br /> undeveloped. The northem edpe of ths �ke is bordered by an axess road that extends to a <br /> yarapa located to the aite's northweat. Ths natur�l prads of the arsa is visible to ths north of thi� <br /> access road, and it appears that the eastem lots are locatsd in an old nvins that was Blled. <br /> SubsuAacs <br /> The subsuAace conditlons were explored hy excavatlny eipht tsat pita at the approximats <br /> locat(ons shown on the Sfte ExploraUon Plan, Plate 2. The lops for three borinpa Utat we <br /> conducted fn 1980 for an eccess road alonp the northem sids of Lots 12 and 13 havs alao been <br /> reviewed for this report. (See Plates 7 - 8.) The fleld exploratlon propram was based upon the <br /> proposed construction and required design crite�fa, the site topography and axe:a, ths <br /> subsuAace condiUons revealed du�inp excavatlon, the scope of work outlined in our propoaal, and <br /> the Ume and budyet consVafnts. <br /> The test p(ts wero excavatad on February 27, 1998 with a rubber-Urod backAos. A qeotechnical <br /> enpfneer from our staff observed the excavaUon process, lopped the test pits, and obta(ned <br /> repm.sentative samples of the soli encountered. "Grab" sampiea of selected subauAacs sofl wsro <br /> collected from the holes. The test pit logs are attached to th(s report as Plates 3 throuph 8. <br />
