1 ; <br /> ( 8.2 Seismically Ind � � T andclidec I <br /> i <br /> �"" Because of the pctential risk of seismically induced landslides occurring along the steep slopes <br /> I above Narbeck Creek, a Suilding setback limit from the top of the slope should be followed to <br /> reduce the risk of stmctural damage. This is further discussed in the Mitigadon Recommendations <br /> section of this report. <br /> � 83 Liquefaction <br /> ( The encountered stratigraphy has a low potential for liquefaction due to their dense state, gravei <br /> content and absence of adverse ground water conditions. <br /> I8.4 Ground Motion <br /> � <br /> Based on the site stracigraphy and visual reconnaissance of the site, it is our opinion that any I <br /> � earthquake damage to the proposed suuctures founded on a suitable Ixaring stratum, and following <br /> the enciosed setback limit recommendations, would be caused by the intensiry and acceleration <br /> Iassociated with the event and not any of the above discussed impacts. Seismic design pazameters <br /> are discussed in the Seismic Hazard Mitigadon section. i <br /> i <br /> I9.0 IlVIPACTS TO GRO WAT .R A IM -C <br /> � The ttuce types of ground water regimes identified pre��iously under the Hydrogeology secdon of <br /> this report i�luded the surficial interflow network, shallow ground water, and the dceper regional <br /> � outwash aquifer. In genera2, as the depth of an aquifer increases, the potendal impact from <br /> development decreases, although aquifer suscepdbility is also dependant upon tt�e natun of the <br /> overlying sediments. Fine-grained sediments such as lodgement till attemiate the pountial impacts <br /> I to underlying aquifers due to development. Further discussion on these pountial impacts are <br /> presented below. <br /> I9.1 Lncerflow Tmpa s <br /> Recharge to the interflow network couid be affected by rerouting of natural draimge and by <br /> ' covering of the laad surface by impervious surfaces such as pavement and buildings. The <br /> I <br /> principal wncern of disrupting the interflow network is rypically the pountial to discupt the <br /> I recharge to shallow wedands and underiying aquifers. However, on this site, no upland wedands <br /> were identified prior to our field study. Therefore, a roducrion of naaual recharge to the interflow <br /> network would have no impact relative to existing conditions. <br /> I9.2 Shallow Ground Water Im�acts <br /> I Recharge to the shallow perched ground water sysum could also be affected by covering the land <br /> . surface with impervious surfaces. The principal concem related to disrupting recharge to tlris <br /> , system would be related to potential reduction in discharge into either Narbeck Cmk or East Fork <br /> ! <br /> 10 <br /> � <br />
