Observations/Finding

The undersigned ASEC representative was on-site to observe and document activities. During the site visit, several key activities were observed. In the south-west portion of the site, specifically for Lots #55 to 59, sewer pipes were being placed. The geological characteristics of this area were notably rocky. The placement of these sewer pipes appeared to be installed as per drawing specifications. Moving to the north side, behind Lot #423 and 424, excavation and placement of large boulder fill was underway. The geological characteristics of this area included the presence of large boulder fill. The boulder fill should not be utilized within the top 10 feet of areas requiring structural fill. Lastly, significant soil deflection was observed in the area designated for future road construction, specifically in front of Lots #428 and 426.  Surficial soil stabilization will be required to remediate the deflecting soils.
