GEOTECHfVICAL ENGINEERING STUDY <br />PROPO�IED THREE STORY ADDITION <br />500 LAUREL DRIVE <br />EWERETT, WASHINGTON <br />00-2267 <br />INTRODUCTION <br />ueneral <br />As requested, this report summarizes the res�lts of our limited geotechnical <br />engineering study for the project. To the best of our understanding, the project <br />incorporates thE construction of a new three-story addition along, roughly, the <br />western side of the existing single family residence. We proceeded with our <br />services on the basis of Mr. Hoban's November 20, 2000 written authorization. <br />The primary purposes of our �tudy were to explore and characterize the subsurface <br />soil and groundwater conditions beneath the general area of the proposed <br />construction, and to supplement these data with geotechnical and geological <br />information readily available in our library and files. Our limited site exploration and <br />data evaluation wese ihen used as a basis for foRnulation of geotechnical <br />recommendations ior design and construction of building foundations and floor <br />slabs, site preparat��n and earthwork operations, fill piacement and compaction, <br />retaining walis, the sites' susceptibility to liquefaction undersEismic conditions, the <br />stability of the sites westem slope, and development of site drainage and erosion <br />control measures. <br />� The site is located approximately as shown on the Vicinity Map, Piate 1. The <br />{ general layout and topography of the property is presented on the attached Site <br />I Plan, Plate 2. This site plan also shows the ap�roximate location of our <br />exploratory boring. <br />This report addresses the geote;;nnical aspects of site develcpment only. It does <br />not address any enviror.mental, wetland or biological aspects of the site <br />conditions, such as the pot��ntial presence of toxic or hazardous conditions or <br />buried tanks, orofwetlands. �fthe environmental aspects of site development need <br />� <br />
