CASCADE GEOTECHNICAL <br />March 27, 1991 <br />The December Partnership <br />Job No. 9102-18G <br />Page 3 <br />central part adjacent to the property. The site is bounded on the <br />south by relatively flat ground. <br />At the time of cur visit, the on-eite soils at the surfacc wrre wet <br />and very soft. The site was moatly vegetated with qrass and some <br />blackberry bushes. Some cottonwood, and wild cherry trees were <br />observed scatteried along the property boundaries. <br />We understanu from our conversations with neighburs that the <br />previous owner had placed fill in a lowland with standinq water <br />some years aqo. <br />SUBBURFACE CONDITIONB <br />The aite sub�urface conditions were investigated by excavatir.g flve <br />(5) backhoe test �.its on February 21, 1991, and by drillinq two (2) <br />twenty-four (24) foot test borinqs on March 7, 1991. The teat <br />borings were performed using a hollow stem auger and standard split <br />spoon sampling in accordance with ASTM D-1586 sampling procedures. <br />The test boring and test pit locations were chosen in the field by <br />our qeologist. Test boring and test pit locations were determined <br />by pacinq relative to property lines and from known landmarks on- <br />site. <br />The test pit and test boring location map is presented in Appendix <br />A. The test pit logs and detailed soils descriptions are presented <br />in Appendix B. The test boring loqs and detailed soil descriptions <br />are presented in Appendix C. The soils observed in the test pits <br />and test borinqs were described in the field and classified using <br />the Unified Soils Claasification Sy�tem. A copy of this <br />classification system is presented in Appendix D. All elevations <br />mentioned in this report are referenced to the existinq grade at <br />the time of our fieldwork. <br />
