March 7. 2011 <br />Mr. Paul lhompson/Kolbear. Inc. <br />L&A Job No. 11-001 <br />Page 3 <br />provided us, as shown on Plate 2 — Site Plan, the plat site is an irregularly -shaped parcel of land. <br />consisting of two approximate rectangles adjoined at the corner. The northeast rectangle <br />contains Lots I and 2, while the entire southwest rectangle is occupied by Lot 3. Lots 1 and 2 is <br />relatively flat, sloping very gently down to the north. Lot 3 generally declines westward. with its <br />eastern 50 feet gently sloped and its remaining area moderately steep to steep at about 22% to <br />45% grade. <br />An existing paved driveway runs through the northern area of Lots 1 and 2, with a short stub <br />curving south to an existing garage sitting at the west end of the existing house or. Lot 1. We <br />understand that this existing driveway will be removed for the proposed new development. The <br />unpaved area of Lots 1 and 2 is covered by lawn grass, with occasional trees dotting the south <br />perimeter of Lots 1 and 2. Most of i.ot 3 is also covered by lawn grass, with patches of brush and <br />occasional trees in the middle of its western half. <br />GEOLOGIC SETTING <br />The Preliminary Geologic Map of the Everett 7.5-Minute Quadrangle, Snohomish County, <br />Washington, by James P. Minard, published by U. S. Geological Survey in 1985, was referenced <br />for the geologic and soil conditions at the subject site. According to this publication, the surficial <br />soil units at and in the vicinity of the plat site are mapped as a Vashon Till (Qvt) underlain by <br />Advance Outwash (Qva). <br />SOIL CONDITION <br />Subsurface conditions of the subject plat site were explored with nine test pits. These test pits <br />were excavated on January 5 and 10, 2011, with a rubber -tracked backhoe, to depths from 5.5 to <br />8.0 feet. The approximate locations of the test pits are shown on Plate 2 - Site and Exploration <br />LILT & ASSOCIATES, INC. -� <br />
