This has been discussed with Mr. Randy Clark of Select Homes, Mr. Pat McCourt <br /> of Universal Brokerage Corporation, and Mr. Michael Crowson of W&H Pacific. <br /> We have observed no signs of instability on native slopes in Divisions III and IV. Fill <br /> slopes on Divisions 1B and IV were constructed with structural fill consisting of on-site granular <br /> soils under full-time monitoring of a qualified individual from our firm. The structural fill is <br /> keyed into existing firm native soils and fill placed to achieve the final slope grades has been <br /> properly benched into existing native materials and compacted to 95 percent of 1dDD (maximum <br /> dry density)according to the specifications of the ASTM D-1557 test procedure. In addition,the <br /> lots are graded to slope away from the tops of slopes and all slopes have been covered with jute <br /> matting and hydroseeded for erosion protection. <br /> In our opinion, where slopes have been placed, compacted, gtaded, aid vegetated as <br /> described above, the minimum building setback distance can be reducW to 10 feet. The setback <br /> distance is the horizontal distance measured from the front face of the footing to the face of the <br /> ;lope. It should be understood that if the setback distance is reduced to 10 feet, the risks of <br /> losing access, reducing the design life of the foundations ane having slope movement impact the <br /> house foundations are increased. <br /> Gr,Fa��uran.Inc. <br /> ��I,. hith.{irntn•S.E <br /> hednxetd.{Y.{ OSo;! <br /> Trlrrang.1'In 14,140 x"i <br /> Fa{i?�rd Al,l�n;b <br />
