Test pits excavated to the south and , <br /> west of the building footprint encountered native glacial tills similar in nature to what was encountered in soil borings. <br /> Test pits were then excavated in the area of the east wing of the building. Boring ST-104 drilled in this general area <br /> encountered about 19 feet of organic, swamp depostied soils and was drilled about 30 feet off of the proposed building <br /> corner due to interference form tfie pre-existing building on site. Test pits were excavated between the approximate <br /> locaiton of ST-104 and the corner of the east wing of the proposed building. Organic soils were encountered within test <br /> pits outside of the proposed building footprint; however, the test pit excavated along the1ooting line of the east wing <br /> did not encounter these unstable soils. Therefore,we do not feel that soil corrections relative to organic, swamp <br /> deposited soils will need to be performed in this area of the proposed building. <br /> Prior to departure, samples of the on-site borrow were obtained for laboratory Proctor testing for use during <br /> compaction testing. <br /> Braun personnel will return to the site tomorrow once stripping and grubbing areeomplete to evaluate building pad <br /> subgrade prior to placement of structural fill. <br /> leather: Sunny / -78 degrees Performed By: Brad McCarter <br /> Submitted To: Jim Beckwith (Kraus-Anderson) Date: August 16, 2011 <br /> • Providing engineering and environmental solutions since 1957 <br />
