� March 30,2009 <br /> � ' HWA Project Nu, 2009-030-21 <br /> these explo�ations we selected two(2)ef the most releva�it CPT explorations and two(2) <br /> borings with rcicvant laboratory tcst data,to evuluatc soil and ground watcr conditions for <br /> the subject projec:t. These explorations werc MPA's CPT soundings CPT-1 and CPT-2; <br /> nnd IiWA borings BH-2,nnd BII-12. The epproximate locations ofthese explorntions <br /> are shown on Sitc and L'xploration I'lnn,Figurc 2. Logs of thcsc CPT's and borings arc <br /> presented in Appendix A of th'ss report. Detailed infonnation conccrning the drilling and <br /> sampling mcA�ods can bc found in thc above rcf'crcnccd reports. <br /> ,•. <br /> � �> <br /> 2.2 CEOLOCY � ' <br /> Gcologic infornintion for the project orcu wus obtained from thc Geologrc Map ofthe <br /> � <br /> Lvere�t 7.5-Mirnde Qundrn�rgle, Snohornisla Co�mry, Wnshr�rglon (Minard, 1985). <br /> According to Minnrd,ncur-surfucc deposits at the project sitc consist of Quatcrnary <br /> glucial advancc outwash deposits. Advnncc outwash is described by Minard as�eing <br /> primarily composed of sand with some pebbles,cobbles,and locally silly arcas. Advance <br /> outwush i.�mostly gray and contuins arcus thal have bccn oxidizcd to shadcs of brown. <br /> Thc ndvancc outwnsh cnn extend to 200 Fcct thick in some flrcns. <br /> 2.3 SURSURRACF.CONDITfONS '\�, <br /> �� <br /> Our iuterpretaUons nf subsurface conditioii's nre based on a review of available geologic <br /> nnd geotechnica! information for thc prajcct�sitc.
