J. Miller Const. <br /> NAVARRE, MINNESOTA Widmer, Inc. <br /> SOIL OBSERVATION AND TESTING <br /> INTRODUCTION <br /> This report concerns our observation and testing of soil conditions for the planned addition to <br /> Rick's Super Valu in Navarre, Minnesota. Our work was requested by Russ Widmer on August <br /> 16, 1991. The scope of work we were authorized to perform was limited to the following items: <br /> 1• Observe the soils exposed within the completed building area excavation. <br /> 2. Put down shallow hand auger borings within the excavated area. <br /> 3. Judge whether tt�e observed soils are suitable for support of fill and structural <br /> loadings. <br /> 4. Perform compaction testing of fill placed to established grade. <br /> CONCLUSIONS <br /> Based on our v,isual observatioii and shallow hand auger borings, it is our opinion that the soils <br /> exposed at completion of excavation within the building area addition consist of naturally deposited <br /> soils similar to those described in tt�e report to the preliminary subsurface exploration (#4220 91- <br /> 1043). These �naturally deposited soils consisted of brown and grey lean clay, sandy lean clay and <br /> clayey sand. The soils in the condition observed, were judged to be suitable for support of fill and <br /> structural loadings. According to offset staking and building elevation information supplied by <br /> others, a suitable lateral excavation oversize of l:l appeared to be maintained around the <br /> perimeter of the excavation. <br /> .
