GARDNER BAY CONSULTING, LL;C <br /> Kembri Lanidry <br /> February 1;,2016 <br /> Discussion <br /> Lui and Associates 2008 assessed the landslide and erosion hazard associated with constructing the house that <br /> is currently located on Parcel 00409422500400 (1222 Grand Ave) that is the lot adjacent to north. In their <br /> discussion and recommendations, Lui and Associates concluded that "it would be unlikely for deep-seated <br /> landslides cutting into these competent soils to occur on the site and, therefore, the landslide hazard for the <br /> subject site should be minimal." 1 Lui and Associates goes on to state that erosion hazards can be maintained <br /> with vegetation and the seismic hazard is should be minimal. <br /> Site Work <br /> The deck construction will involve the installation of 14 footings. Lui and Associates recommended that soil <br /> bearing pressure should be no more than 3,000 psf for footings installed in the hard soils found beneath the site. <br /> This is sufficient for the current deck plan. <br /> Statement <br /> The services described in this letter were prepared under the responsible charge of Peter Battuello LG, LHG. Mr. <br /> Battuello is a geologist as defined in EMC 19.4. Mr. Battuello understands the requirements for the current <br /> Geologically Hazardous Areas Chapter EMC 19.37.080 and the definition of the applicable terms contained within <br /> EMC 19.4. Mr. Battuello performed a geological assessment, conducted a field investigation, and researched <br /> historic records on or in the vicinity of the above referenced site. In my opinion, the scope of the services <br /> completed for this project is adequate to meet the requirements of the Department and I conclude that the <br /> construction of the proposed deck will avoid impacts to the geologically hazardous area and no geologic hazards <br /> will result from the proposed deck, either on the site or•" „y 'acent properties. <br /> { Was <br /> Sincerely, <br /> co <br /> —Ga er Bay Consulting, LLC f'' <br /> Sed G • % \(:) <br /> Peter Battuello, LG, LHG /4.. <br /> Peter Ant•11241-•"` <br /> References: <br /> Dames and Moore 1991, Memorandum regarding Methodology for Inventory, Classification and Designation of <br /> Geologically Hazardous Areas,City of Everett,June 1, 1991. <br /> Liu and Associates, Inc. 2008, Geotechnical Investigation and Recommendations, Don and Jo Levine Residence, <br /> 1224 Grand Avenue, Everett, WA, L&A Job No. 8A037, April 7, 2008. <br /> Minard 1985, Geologic Map of the Everett 7.5-Minute Quadrangle, Snohomish County,Washington.
