PROJEC'I' :��1D SITE CONDiTIONS <br /> � 1.0 INTRODJCTION <br /> This report present�; die results of our subsurface exploration, geologic hazard, and pre[iminary <br /> t geotechnical engineering study for the proposed new Housing Hupe Phase Q project to be <br /> � conswcted on the property located immedia[ely west of the day care faciliry at 5910 Evergreea <br /> � �1'ay in Everett. Washington (Figure 1). The approximate locations of the explorations <br /> complece�i for this study are presented on the Site and Exploration Plan, Figure 2. <br /> I1.1 Purpose and Scope • <br /> The purpose of this study was to provide subsurface data to be utilized in the prelim�inary <br /> Idesign and development of the above-mentioned project. Our study includcd re�.����.ng <br /> , available literature, excavating exploration pits, and performing geologic stvdies to asse:.s :he <br /> rype, thickness, distribution, and p6ysical properties of the subsurface soils and shallow <br /> I ground warer conditio�s. Geotechnical engineering studies were also conducted te determine <br /> the n�pe of sui[able foundation, allowable bearing pressures, anticipated settlements, retaining <br /> waU rypes and lateral pressures, floor support recommendations, and drainage considerations. <br /> � This report summarizes our cunent fieldwork and offers development recommendations based <br /> on our present understanding of the project. This report is preliminary considering that the <br /> I building locations and finished floor elevations have not been finalized at the time of this <br /> report. In addition, we unders[and tha[ on-site infiltration of storm water is cunently a desired <br /> design option. Therefore, additional exploration may bc required within the specific area(s) <br /> Itargeted for infiltration once site development plans have been solidified. <br /> 1.2 Authorization ' <br /> t Written authorization to proceed with this study was granted by hir. Ron Vlallace of Housing <br /> Hope on January 2, 2002. Our study was accomplished in general accordance with our <br /> I proposal dated November 29, 2001. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of <br /> Housing Hope and ttieir agents, for specific application to this project. Within the limitations <br /> of scope, schedule, and budget, our services have been performed in accordance with generally <br /> Iaccepted geotechnical engineering and engineering geology practices in effect in this area at the <br /> time our repon was prepared. No other warranty, express or implied, is made. <br /> I2.0 PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION <br /> ( This report was completed with an understanding of the proposed project. based on a <br /> topographic survey provided by Western Surveyors, Ir.c, dated January 22, 2002 and a <br /> IFebruary Il, 200: ASSOCU7ED EfR7NSClENCE$ /NC. <br /> sc�rd r.ca�ro�:�r��.n,�:u�i�+v�Kewr•u:K Page 1 <br /> ' %30 <br />
