Corner of Watertown <br />Road $ Willow <br />Orono, Minnesota <br />Mr. Tyler: <br />As requested, we have recently conducted a preliminary soils <br />investigation consisting of 8 power auger borings and 16 <br />percolation tests. These borings were taken to determine <br />general soil and water conditions over the above referenced <br />subdivision. The percolation tests were conducted to pro- <br />vide preliminary information relative to the soil absorptivity <br />rates. The borings and percolation tests were taken at the <br />locations as shown on the attached sketch. Field locations <br />were determined by you and our crew chief as determined by <br />topographical features as shown on the topographical survey <br />provided by you. Surface elevations were interpolated from <br />the contour elevations shown on this same survey. <br />1NVESTIGATION METHODS: <br />Power auger borings were completed using a CME-45 truck - <br />mounted power auger unit. The soil classifications and <br />depths as shown on the attached logs were inferred from the <br />soils brought to the surface by the continuous flight feature <br />of the auger and are thus somewhat approximate. <br />Mineral soils encountered in the borings were classified in <br />accordance with the Unified Soils Classification System. A <br />copy of that chart is attached. Representative sampples of <br />the soils brought to the surface by the auger will be retained <br />in this office for a period of 60 days to be available for <br />your examination. <br />CONSULTING ENGINUAVSOILS AND MATERIALS <br />nr-end •I.O� f • In an✓� In)n ul ! �nUw.
