Previously, GeoDesign noted that the Lot 220 area had been over -excavated —3-4 feet <br />down to firm and unyielding ground (during removal of surcharge material) and brought back to plan grade with material <br />compacted to greater than 95% of its maximum dry density as determined by a Modified Proctor analysis. GeoDesign <br />noted that the exposed foundation subgrade material consisted of a brown SAND (f-m) with silt which could generally be <br />probed less than 1 inch using a 1/2 inch diameter soil probe. Relative compaction of the exposed foundation subgrade <br />material was tested using a Troxler Moisture -Density gauge; an in -place density test indicated that the material had been <br />compacted to greater than 95% of its maximum dry density as determined by a Modified Proctor analysis. <br />It is the opinion of GeoDesign that the exposed foundation subgrade material observed today is currently suitable for <br />support of the intended structure. GeoDesign recommends that any loose and saturated material be removed from the base <br />of the ff� ' s prior to placement of concrete. <br />K <br />LOT 221: <br />Today, GeoDesign noted that DDS had completed the excavation of the footing, crawl space, and crawl space drain for Lot <br />221 prior to our arrival on -site.

GeoDesign recommends that any loose and saturated material be removed from the base <br />of the footings prior to placement of concrete. <br />This report presents opinions formed as a result of our observation of activities relating to geotechnical engineering or environmental services. We rely on the contractor to comply with the plans and <br />specifications throughout the duration of the project irrespective of the presence of our representative. Our work does not include supervision or direction of the contractor, the contractor's employees <br />or agents. Our firm Is not responsible for site safety. This field report is a DRAFT representation of our field observations, testing, and preliminary recommendations. The report can only be considered <br />final upon review of the GeoDesign project manager, as indicated by initials in the "Reviewed By" section. <br />10700 Meridian Avenue North, Suite 402 1 Seattle, WA 98133 1 206.838.9900 <br />2502 Jefferson Avenue I Tacoma, WA 98402 1 253.203.0095 <br />
