FTalRll <br />GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION <br />FOR THE PROPOSED <br />EVERETT INTERMODAL STATU.)N <br />(Your Project # S90442.03) <br />Milbor-Pita <br />&Moanhs, M <br />25Aug99 <br />1.0 INTRODUCTION <br />1.1 General <br />This report presents the results of the geotechnical engineering study completed by <br />Milbor-Pita & Associates, Inc. (MPA), for tae proposed Everett Intermodal Station in <br />Everett, Washington. The project location and general layout are shown on the Vicinity <br />Map (Figure 1) and the Site Plan (Figure 2), respectively. The purpose of this <br />geotechnical study was to explore and evaluate the surface and subsurface conditions at <br />the site and provide recommendations pertaining to the geotechnical aspects of the <br />project. <br />1.2 Project Description <br />The City of Everett proposes building a transportation station complex that -„rill provide a <br />link beiw;.en bus and rail lines. The station is to consist of a two-story building with full <br />basement, a bus concourse, and three parking lots. The station will also house an adult <br />educational facility on the upper floor. <br />1.3 Authorization <br />Our work was conducted in accordance with our proposal letter, submitted by MPA to <br />ZGF Architects in June of 1997. Written authorization for the work was subsequently <br />given by Daniel liuberty on IOAug98. This report has been prepared for the exclusive <br />use of ZGF Architects, for specific application to this project in accordance with <br />generally accepted geotechnical/civil engineering practices. <br />The scope of work completed for this project included performing deep exploratory <br />borings, laboratory testing, and engineering analysis based on the conditions observed in <br />our explorations, and providing geotechnical engineering recommendations for the <br />proposed Station. <br />2.0 PREVIOUS EXPLORATIONS <br />The following previous explorations were consulted on the project property or in the <br />immediate vicinity: <br />• HWA Geosciences Inc.
