<br />GEC #5130 - Page 2 <br /> <br />Deviations from the above design information could necessitate altering our <br />conclusions and recommendations. <br /> <br />FIELD EXPLORATION <br /> <br />On February 27, 1988, we drilled five soil borings at the site. The boring <br />locations are shown on the attached plan. <br /> <br />We staked the borings in the field. Midwest Land Surveyors, Inc. located <br />those borings, determined the surface elevations at the boring locations, <br />and provided us with that information. We relocated and re-e1evated boring <br />#5, in reference to the other boring locations and elevations. <br /> <br />The borings were made using the standard penetration - split spoon and <br />static cone methods. The methods of performing the standard penetration <br />test are described on the attached sheets entitled "Test Boring and Logging <br />Methods." <br /> <br />A complete log of each boring was maintained. The logs include: the <br />depths to the boundaries between the soil layers; a description, classifi- <br />cation, and geologic identification of the soils encountered; the surface <br />elevations at the borings; water, level measurements; the results of the <br />standard penetration resistance (N column); the results of static cone <br />tests; and other information. <br /> <br />The nomenclature used to describe the soil types is shown on the attached <br />sheets entitled "Identification of Soils" and IIheologic Terminology.1I <br /> <br />SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS <br /> <br />Soi 1 s <br />The basic soil profile encountered in the borings that we drilled is sur- <br />ficial soils overlying basal soils. The surficial soils are topsoil, and <br />swamp deposits. The basal soils are weathered soil ano coarse alluvium. <br />
