The project site is a vacant lot located <br /> batwr.en an existing day care f«�ciliry wiih sveet address 5910 Evergreen VVay and tesidenual ? <br /> d��•ellings (owned by Housing Hopa) with s4eet addresses 5817, 5823, and 5829 Flemming � <br /> ( Svicet in E�•ere[t, 1i'a�hington. 71.e e�.isung day care building and resiciential dwellings will <br /> � remain. The Housing Hopc: drve!upmer_t offices ue located north of the site and a strip mall � <br /> and residential dwellings are locateci sos�th of the property. Pidgeon Creek is located north of a <br /> � the property and separates the day care lot from the Housing Hope development offices 4 <br /> P�;,perty. A required 50-foot �vatercourse buffer has been established along the southeast flank , <br /> I of Pidgeon Creek. As currendy planned, the proposed Phase II development should not i <br /> encroach on this buffer. ; <br /> 'I�e property is veget�ted primarily with blackberry and other small shrubs, and scattered � <br /> igroups oC large cedar and maple trees. Slopes range from nearly flat in the northeast corne� of <br /> [he lot to approximately 50 percent near die southwest comer of the property. Overall vertical <br /> � relief across the site is on the order of 20 feet with higher elevations near the south properry <br /> line and che lowest elevations along the north property line. <br /> i 1Ye understand thac the proposed project would ir,clude construction of three ne�N residential � <br /> � buildings withiu tLe vaca�t, eastern ponion of the lot. Building locations, finished floor <br /> elevations, and construccion de[ails ha�'e not been finalized at this time. However, we <br /> Ianeicipace lieht to moderate foundation loads commensurate with wood or me[al-frame <br /> consuu�tion. Current plans also indude infiltration of storm water, if possible. <br /> I3.0 SUI3SCRF:ICE E\PLOR.�\TION <br /> I �lssociated Earth Sciences, Inc. (AESI) performed a subsurface exploration of the site on <br /> ]anuary 25, 2002. Our field smdy included txcavating seven exploration pi[s to gain <br /> 1 subsurface information about the si[e. The various rypes of soils, as well as the depths where <br /> , characteristics of the soils changed, are indicated on the exploration logs presented in the <br /> Appendix. The depths indicated on [he logs whe;e condi[ioas chau�ed represent gradational <br /> ' variations between soil types in the field. The loc.ations of our field exploratfons were <br /> � determined by approximate measurement from che known site features presenred on the <br /> aforementioned topograp6ic survey prepazed by Western Surveyors, Inc. The purpose of the <br /> I exploracion program was to establish general site, soil, a�id ground water conditioas. <br /> Additional explorations may be necessary within the specific azeas targeted for infiltration once <br /> I. site development details and definite building locations and elevations have been established. <br /> The cor.clusio�s and recommendations presented in this report are based, in part, on the <br /> � cxploration pits completed for this study. The number, locations, and depths of the <br /> explorations were completed within site constraints. Because of the nature of exploratory work <br /> below ground, exuapolation of subsurface conditions between field explorations is necessary. <br /> � February !l, 2002 AJSOClATFJ� F.4R1N SC(ENCE$ /NC. <br /> scrr:��KEo���v�:•�,rn,i:mi;.v�Kn wr-w:r. �� <br /> Page 2 <br /> f 73D <br />
