<br />GEe #5130 - Page 3 <br /> <br />We assumed that weathered soil described as dark brown in color is inorga- <br />nic and can be left in-place or used as controlled fill. We assumed that <br />the soils described as black in color are organic and should be removed <br />from below buildings and streets and not used as controlled fill below <br />houses and streets. <br /> <br />The depths to. and elevations of. the contacts between the surficial soils <br />and the basal soils are given in Table 1. The ground surface elevations at <br />the borings are also shown. <br /> <br /> TABLE I <br />BORING SURFACE CONTACT BETWEEN SURFICIAL SOILS & BASAL SOILS <br />NUMBER ELEVATION OEPTH(FT. ) ELEVATION <br />1 895.9 su rf . veg. 895-1/2 <br />2 865.2 8 857 <br />3 885.9 1 885 <br />4 867.9 2 865 <br />5 872.3 su rf . veg. 872 <br /> <br />surf. veg: surface vegetation <br /> <br />Refer to the attached sheet for a description of geologic terminology. <br /> <br />Ground Water <br />Water level measurements were taken in the bore holes at the time the <br />borings were completed. Soil samples were also examined to determine the <br />waterbearing characteristics of the soils. Borings #2, #4, and #5 were <br />drilled in the topographically lower area of the property. In those <br />borings. ground water was encountered at about elevations 864 to 866. <br />Ground water was not encountered in borings 11 and #3. <br />
