�UG-11-145� 1<�98 �.lb REMCO JN 99281 , July 26, 1998 Page 5 The site soils are silty and therefore moisture serisitive; it may be beneficial to covar footing subgrades with a thin layer of crushed rock to protect them from dislurbance. Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be allowed to reviaw the final development plans ta verify that the recommendations presented in this roport are adequetely addressed in the design. Such a plan review would be additional wcxk beyond the current scope of work for this study, and it may inciude revisions to ou� recommendations to accemmodate site, devetopment, and geotechnical constraints that become mora e�i:dent during the review process. LIMITATIONS The analyses, conGusions, and recemmendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as they existed at the time of our exploration and assume that Ihe aoil and groundwater conditlons encountered in the test pits are representative of subsurface conditions on the site. If the subsurtace conditfons enCountered during const�vction are significant!y diNerent irom those observed in our exploreNons, we should he advisad at once so that we can review these cenditions ; and reconsider our recommendations where necessary Unanticipated soi! conditions are � c^mmonly encountered on constn:ctian sites and cannOt be 'uliy anticipated by merely taking soil sampies in test pits. Subsurface conditions can also vary between exploretion locations. Such unexpected conditions frequently require maki�g additional expenditures to attain a properl;� constructed project, it is recommended ;hat the owner consider provid(ng a cont�nger.cy fund to accommodate such potent±al extra costs and risks. This is a standard recommendation for all � projects. This report has been prepared 1or the exciusive use of REMCO, and its representatives, (or specific application ta this project and site. Our recommendations and Conciusiens aro ba�ed on observed � site materials, and selective engineering analyses. Our conciusions and recommendations are professional Opinions derroed in accordance with current standards of practfce within the scope of � our services and within budgRt and time cons:raints. No warranty is expressed or implied. The scope of our services does not include services reiated to construction safety preca�tior.s, and our J recornmendation5 are not intended to direct the contractors methads, techniques, sequen�es or � procedures, except as specifieally described ir. our reporl tor cons�deretion in design. Tnis report : should be provided to any (uture property owners to inform lhem of our findinss and ' recommendations. Additionally, this report should be provided in the project �ontract decuments i for Ihe information of the contractor. � AtlDIT10NAL SERVICES I In add�tion to roviewing the final pians, Geotech Consuitanis, Inc. should be retained to provide I geotechnical consultalion, test�n.? and observation services during co�struction. 7h?s is to confirm that subsurface conditions are consistent with those indicated by our exploretion, to eva�uate whether earthwork and foundation constructicn activities comply with the 9eneral intent of the recommendations presenied in this report, and to provide �u3y��stions for design changes in the event subsurface conditions diffe� trom thcse anticipated prior t� the sta�t of construction Nowever, our work would not include the supervision or direction of the actual H�ork of the contrector and its employees or agenfs.
