LSI Adapt, Inc. <br /> Thc boring�vas complcted using a truck-mountcd, hollow-stem augcr drill rio, which was operatcd by an <br /> indepcndcnt company working undcr subcontract to Adapt. A geotechnical representative of Adapt was <br /> on-site to observe thc boring, obtain represcntativc soil samplcs, and log lhe subsurface conditions. .4Rer <br /> thc boring was complcted, thc borchol�was backfilicd with a m:xturc of soil cuttings and bcntonitc chips. <br /> Thc ]ocation oF thc boring advanccd for this study is shown on the uttachcd Cigurc 2. Thc spccific <br /> location and depth of the cxploration performed was scicctcd in rclation to the proposed site fcatures, <br /> under the ecnsVaints of budget and site acccss. Thc boring location and other features sho�vn on Figure 2 <br /> were obtained by hand taping from cxisting site features; as such, thc exploration location sl�own should <br /> be considcred accurate only to thc�cgrec implied by the mcasuring methods used. <br /> During drilling, soil samples were obtained at 2.5 ro 5.0-foot depth intervals using the Standard <br /> Penctration Test (SPT) procedurc (ASTM: D 1586). This tcst and sampling mcthod consists of driving a <br /> standard 2-inch outsidc diametcr (OD) split-barrcl samplcr a distancc of 18 inchcs inro thc soil �vith a <br /> 140-pound hammer, froc-falling a distancc of 30 inchcs. The number of blows requircd to drivc thc <br /> sampler Uvough cach of llie tivcc, 6-incl� intcrvals is notcd. Tl�c total numbcr of blows struck during thc <br /> final 12 inches of penetration is considercd tl�e Standard Pcnctration Resistance,or"blow counf'. If 50 or <br /> more blows are swck within one G-inch interval, thc driving is ccased and the blow count is recordcd as <br /> SJ blows for thc actual numbcr of inclics of penctration. The resulting Standard Penclration Rcsistancc <br /> values provide a mcasure of the rclative density of granular soils or the relative consistcncy of cohcsivc <br /> soils. <br /> The eaplor�tion log aqachcd to this report indicate the vertical sequcnce of soils and materials <br /> cncountered in cach expioruliun, Uused primarily un our field classifications and supportcd by our <br /> subscquent laboratory cxamination and tcsting, if applicablc. Where a soil contact was abscrved to be <br /> gradational or undulating, our logs indicatc thc avcragc contact dcpth. Our boring fog also graphically <br /> indicate the SPT blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate depth of each soil samplc <br /> obtained from the cxploration. If any groundwa�cr was cncountcrcd in an cxploration, the approximatc <br /> groundwater depth is depicted on thc exploration logs. <br /> It should be realizcd that thc explorations pedomied for this cvaluation reveal subsurface conditions only <br /> at discretc locations across the project site and that actual conditions in other arcas could vary. <br /> Furthemiore, the naturc and cxteni of any local variations would not become cvidcnt until additional <br /> explorations are performcd or until conshvction activities havc commcnced. If significant variatioas arc <br /> obscrvcd at that timc, �vc may nced to modify our conclusions and recommcndations containcd in this <br /> rcport to rcflcct tl�e actual sitc conditions. <br /> SITE CONDIT[ONS <br /> Thc fallo�ving scctions dcscribc a�r oUscnations, mcasurcmcnts, anc intcr�nctations conccrning surfacc, <br /> soiL crowid��•atcr, and scisntic conditions at thc projcct sitc. <br /> Neztel Go Tetra Tech June 25,2004 <br /> LSI Adapt Pro;ect No.WA0441499•GEO Page�5 <br />
