Thc drillinc ��cis <br /> I subcontracted. The exploration locations are shown in Figure 2. Details of Uic crploraiions are <br /> included in Appendix A. <br /> � 2.2 LABORATORY TESTING <br /> Soil samples obtained from die esplorations werc transponed to GeoBnginccrs' laboratory in <br /> Redmond and examined to confirm or modify field classifications. as well as �o cvaluate <br /> ' engineering properties of the soil. Reprcsentative samples were selected for laboratory tcsting ; <br /> wnsisting of se��eral moisturc content and density detertninations,as well as one consolidation test. <br /> � Tlie tests were perfomied in general accordance with test tnethods of the Amcrican SociMy for <br /> Testing and Materials (ASTM) or other applicable procedures. .Appendix B includes a bricf <br /> ' discussion of the laborarory tesu and test rcsults. <br /> 3.0 SITE CONDITIONS <br /> � Tlie following subsections describe the general surface and subsurface conditions at the site. <br /> Inrerprc[ations of the site conditions arc based on a site reconnaissance, previous cxperience at the <br /> � site,and the subsurface e�plorations. <br /> 3.1 GENERAL SURFACE CONDITIONS <br /> ( The site is located in an old sand and gravel pit at thc southeast corner of Hardeson Road and <br /> Shuksan Way in Everett, Washineton. The site is bounded on the west by Hardeson Road and on <br /> the north by Shuksan Way. Tlie south property line is near the toe of a fill slope that ��as <br /> � predominaNly consWcted last ��ear. The fill slope is up to abou[ 40 feet high and is inclined as <br /> steep as 1.5H:1V (horizontal to vertical) near the southeast proper[y comer. The fill was placed <br /> against an old mined pit vertical high wall that H�as about 90 feet high. Therc is a 20-acrc sediment <br /> � pond located south of the site with a water surface at about Elevation 470 fceL L.o[3 is locatcd e�st <br /> of the site and it has also been paded relatively flat. <br /> � The site generelly slopes do�tro from about Elevation 450 feet near the southeast comer to about <br /> L-Ievation 430 feet neaz the northwest comec The ground surface across the west, central, and <br /> northeast portions of the site is relatively 11at with about a 4-to 6-foot gain across the site. There is <br /> iabout a 16-foot elevation gain in the southeast corner of die site beginning at the south drainage <br /> ditch,see Figure 2. A surface water collection pond is locatcd in a fortner pit azea in the soudiwest <br /> ' comer of the site. Thrce surface water drainage ditches traverse the property and terminate at the <br /> pond. The central and largest ditch is about 3 to 4 (eet deep and 8 feet wide and begins near the L.ot <br /> I <br /> �� G e o [ n g i n c e r s 3 FilcNo. 75R4-002-00-1130�050101 ��. <br />
