The native soils observed in MSS NI were a <br />silty sand with gravel. <br />'ll�e fill appears W be a mixture of naflve �oils possibly derived from the originallevdlinQ of <br />the house p�d and imported medium sand or sandy gravel. The DCPT results indicated that all <br />fill was placed in a loose and w►compacud state. Some ]imited zones within the fill have <br />consolldaoed into a medium dense state. <br />The southern portion of the house is foundcd on denu naflve soils. At the north end of the <br />building, the dense native soils are approximately 16 fcet below the existing surface at the Hme <br />of our tield investigation. In the area of the outer deck footings the fill is at least fourtcen (14) <br />fat thick. The fill condnues down the slope at the north end of the building. <br />c�. �. .�� ��� <br />We did not observe any ground water at the dme of our site invesdgadon. Some of the fill was <br />' moWed possibly indicating that the soils become wet during certain times of the year. <br />A r�wiew of previous geologic mapping, completed by James P. Minard (Disuibudon snd <br />Descdption of Gaologic Units in the Mutdlteo Quadran�le, WashingWn, Department of the <br />Interlor, USGS 1982) indicates that lhe nadve soits in this area are overconsolidate� aand, silt <br />and clay. The wils in the area may also be overconsolidated silty sands with gravel. The nadve <br />bearing soil correlates well with those previously described soils. The unconVolled fill appears <br />W be derived in part from these native soils as well as fzom imported fill. <br />3 <br />
