Results of the tests are summarized in the Appendix. 3.3 Engineering Analyses Engineering analyses and recommendations regarding general foundation design including allowable soil bearing pressures, minimum footing depth requirements, and estimates of foundation settlement are included in this report. In addition, recommendations were developed addressing site preparation, and placement and compaction of fill materials. The geotechnical recommendations presented in this report are based solely on the available project information, tower and equipment building locations, and the subsurface materials described in this report. If any of the noted information is incorrect, please inform us in writing so that we may amend the recommendations presented in this report, if appropriate and if desired by the client. PSI will not be responsible for the implementation of its recommendations when it is not notified of changes in .ne project. The scope of services did not include an environmental evaluation for determining the presence or absence of wetlands, or hazardous or toxic materials in the soil, bedrock, surface water, groundwater, or air, on or below, or around this site. Any statements in this report or on the boring and test pit logs regarding odors, colors, and unusual or suspicious items or conditions are strictly for information purposes and do not constitute an environmental evaluation of the soils encountered. 4.0 Surface and Subsurface Features 4.1 Site Description The project site is located just west of the City of Everett water storage lank facility at 319 76" Street Southwest in Everett, Washington. While the existing water storage tank facility is situated on relatively level ground at the lop of a hill, the proposed tower site is relatively level on the eastern-most 15 feet and then slopes down at a visually estimated slope of 2.5 horizontal: 1 vertical. PSI has not been provided with survey information to confirm the hillside slope The site is heavily vegetated with deciduous trees, brush and blackberry bushes Some debris (garbage) was visually observed on the slope and there may be loose fill dumped over the hillside. In addition to the storage tank facility to the east, the proposed tower site is bordered by residences to the west, north and south
