Rinkcr Materials <br /> April l3, 2002 <br /> Page 2 <br /> During the 2000 grading season,we visited thc ^te on an intermittent to part-tim::basis on 50 <br /> occasions hetween June 23, 2000 and September 14, 2000 to observe earthwork which incfuded <br /> cutting at the site. A small amount of fill was also placed on Ihe cast edge of the site lor a haul <br /> road and alung the toe of a fill slopc placed on Rinker Matenals Lots 9 and l0.

Copies of these reports were given to Rinkrr Materials and KLB during <br /> constr�ction. <br /> During the 2001 gradin� seasun, we visited the site on a part-[ime basis on 111 occasions <br /> betwcen March 23, 20�11 and October 12, 2001 to observic eaRhwork which induded cutting and <br /> filling at [he site. Results of our construction monitoring services are presentcd in our daily field <br /> reports for the project, Nos. 1 through I11. Copies of these rcports were given to Rinkcr <br /> Materials, KLQ, 1Vashington Federal Savings, Soil & Environmental Lngincers, and <br /> INTRACOC•'.P during conshuction. <br /> Our earhwork monitoring services included the following activities and observations at the <br /> site. <br /> • Pit 11oor preparation <br /> • Cuning <br /> • FlaCcning of Ihc noRh-south pi[hiy,hwall <br /> • Ben�hing new fills into native cut slopes and previously placed fill slopes <br /> • Structural fill placcmcnt and compaction <br /> • Removal oC temporary ramps and the northeast undocumented fill area <br /> PIT FLOOI� PREPARATION <br /> Lxposed surfaces resulting Gom Ihe mining activi[ies or past grading activities were <br /> evaluated by a representative from GeoEnginer.rs pr:or ro placing fill. The rontractor removed <br /> laose and di:;turbed soils Ihat had accumulated on the pi! floar. Accumulalions of sloughed soils <br /> along the hi�;hwalls and HIl slopes were also removcd prior to evaluating the pi[ fluors and prior <br /> to placing fill in thosc areas. Ivative advance out�vash sand deposits were exposcd on the pit <br /> tloors. Our representative eval�ated thc pit floor areas by probing with a %:-inch-diameter steel <br /> prabc rod and by o6serving lhe condition and performance of the pit floor under cquipment loads. <br /> Basr.d on our abservatians and evaluations, it is our opinion that the pit (loor areas evaluatcd <br /> dunng our site visits wcre prepared in gcneral accurclance with our recommendations and the <br /> Letter of Understanding. <br /> CUTTING <br /> Extcnsivc cuts werc made on the southem l�alf of the site to achieve rough grade. SigrtiFicant <br /> grading at Ihe site conunenced in 2000, but relalively little fill was placeri d;zt year. Gradir.g, <br /> which again includcd significant cuts on the southem half of the site, resumed ir: 2001 when the <br /> majority oF the fill was placed in the east rr:ined pit arca and in the northwest are�. <br /> ❑ c u :� n :: '. n c : r s fileNu 6192-0U7-0)4U0 <br />
