We <br />informed him that an extra pile could be added to the western end of the wall. We are labeling this pile <br />N18. <br />We observed the installation of 4 piles (N12 through N10, and N18) as shown on the Site Plan. Each <br />hole was augured with a. 24-inch auger to approximately one foot below the planned bottom of pile <br />elevation. The soil that was exposed during the excavation consisted of brown -gray, fine to medium <br />sand with silt to silty fine to medium sand. We did not observe sloughing in the holes after they were <br />drilled, and we did not observe evidence of groundwater.. All the holes were backfilled today with CDF <br />and the top of the piles were set at an elevation of 190 feet +/- 0.1 inches. <br />We observed that the black pipe running down the slope that previously transported the water generated <br />on the site down towards the creek was cut in to several pieces starting at the property line. Several cut <br />pieces are located on the neighboring property. <br />We will return to the site tomorrow to continue to observe the wall installation. Based on our <br />observations while on site, it is our opinion that the retaining wall is being installed in general <br />accordance with the wall design. <br />Attachment: Site plan + wall profile <br />Distribution: <br />Signed: —� <br />
