Engineering(Envirotech)has completed a geotechnical investigation for a future nine lot subdivision on parcel numbers 12220 33 00210, 12229 22 00320, 12220 33 90221, 12220 33 90222. 12220 33 90223, and 12220 33 90224, Mason County, Washington (Project). As presented herein, this report includes information pertaining to the Project in this Introduction Section; observations of the property and surrounding terrain in the Surface Conditions Section; field methods and soil descriptions in the Subsurface Investigation Section; and. recommendations for foundation, settlement, earthwork construction, lateral earth pressures. slope stability, erosion control, drainage and vegetation considerations in the Engineering Analysis and Recommendations Section. An initial geotechnical evaluation of the Project was conducted by Envirotech with the property owner,Jack Johnson,on May 9, 2008. It was previously determined that slopes in excess of 40% with a vertical relief of at least 10 feet were present within 300 feet of the planned development. Consequently, the proposed development will require a geotechnical report pursuant to Landslide Hazard Areas of Mason County Resource Ordinance 17.01.100. During the site visit by Envirotech, surface and subsurface conditions were assessed. After completion of the field work and applicable Project research, Envirotech prepared this geotechnical report. 1.1 Project Information Information pertaining to the Project was provided by the property owner and owner's representative with general assumptions by Envirotech that are typical of this type of development. The Project is accessed from an unimproved road linking Sherwood Creek Road. See the vicinity map on the following page of this report for a general location of the site. The property is currently vacant land with a dirt road accessing all the planned lots, and one well head. The planned development consists of I- or 2-story single family residences on each lot. Foundation construction is expected to consist of continuous strip footings and concrete slab-on- grade or stem walls. Anticipated construction other than the residence will include driveways, stormwater management systems, and possible ancillary features typical of this type of development. Septic drainfields are not anticipated for this Project. Earth movement consisting of cutting high areas and filling the low portion of undulations is expected. Approximate building footprint with relation to site features are illustrated in the Site Map in Appendix A. 1.2 Purpose of Investigation The purpose of this geotechnical investigation was to evaluate the Project in order to provide geotechnical recommendations relating to the development of the property. The investigation included characterizing the general Project surface and subsurface conditions, and evaluating the suitability of the soils to support the planned site activities. 1.3 Scope of Work In order to fulfill the purpose of investigation, the geotechnical program completed for the proposed improvements of the Project include: • Review project information provided by the Project owner and/ or owner's Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 na_e 1 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98528 Mason County.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 representative. This included a grading and stormwater management plan completed by Michael Wnek.P.E.; • Conduct a site visit to document the site conditions that may influence the construction and performance of the proposed improvements; • Define the general subsurface conditions of the site by observing subsoils extending to a depth of up to 35 feet below the natural ground surface, review geological maps for the general area, research published references concerning slope stability, and review water well reports from existing wells near the Project; • Collect bulk samples at various depths and locations; • Perform soils testing to determine selected index properties of the soils that include 8 visual classifications,2 in-place density tests, and one direct shear test; • Complete an engineering analysis supported by the planned site alterations, and the surface and subsurface conditions that were identified by the field investigation, soil testing,and applicable project research;and, • Establish conclusions based on findings, and make recommendations for foundations, drainage, slope stability, erosion control, earthwork construction requirements. and other considerations.

During the site visits,the type of geotechnical investigation was assessed. site features were documented that may influence construction and slope stability, soil samples were collected from selected locations. and near-surface soils were visually classified. This Surface Conditions Section provides information on general observations, vegetation, topography, drainage and slope/ erosion conditions for the Project and surrounding areas that may impact the Project. 2.1 General Observations The Project is currently vacant land as previously mentioned. Sherwood Creek Road borders the southeast portion of the property,and a residential subdivision is located to the north and west of the property. Beyond the property lines, exist low to moderate density residential development. Vegetation on and near the Project consists primarily of firs,alders,maples,blackberry, and other trees and shrubbery common to this area of the Pacific Northwest. Past clearing has been completed for this property. An aerial photo of the project and immediate vicinity is provided on the following page. 2.2 Topography The Project is situated within and near moderate to very steep sloping terrain. The topographic information provided in this section was extrapolated from a public lidar source,and incorporated observations and field measurements. Slope verification included measuring slope lengths and inclinations with a cloth tape and clinometer. See the Site Map in Appendix A and the Geological Map in Appendix B in this report for an illustration of general topography with respect to the planned development. 2.2.1 Upslope Geomorphology Ascending grades are located to the north and west of the planned development. These slopes are extremely variable, with undulations and vertical reliefs ranging from 10 to 40 feet from the property line. There are no apparent water bodies or wetlands located upslope from the planned development. 2.2.2 Downslope Geomorphology Descending grades also vary considerably, and are limited to a vertical relief of no more than 130 feet of slopes exceeding 40%. Some isolated areas with vertical reliefs of less than 25 feet were observed to have slopes greater than 100%. See the Site Plan and Geologic Map in the appendices of this report. 2.3 Surface Drainage Stormwater runoff originating upslope from the anticipated development is expected to be minimal. Sheet flow down the sloping grades towards the planned development is expected. Most of the upslope runoff appears to be diverted away from the property due to the upslope Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical investigation PO Box 984 na2e 3 Knudsen Tracts Belfair.Washington 98528 Mason Countv.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 development. Sheet flow down the steeper slopes can be expected, with some minor convergences. Excessive scour, erosion or other indications of past drainage problems were not observed at or near the planned development. It is apparent that the upslope development manages most of its stormwater,and distributes runoff without impacting the Project. 2.4 Slope and Erosion Observations The existing steep slopes near the Project signal a potential landslide or erosion hazard area Some indicators that may suggest past slope movements include: • Outwash of sediments near the bottom of the slope, • Fissures, tension cracks or naturally stepped land masses on the face or top of the slope, and parallel to the slope, • Fine, saturated subsurface soils. • Old landslide debris, • Significant bowing or leaning trees,or. • Slope sloughing or calving. Significant mass wasting on the property was observed. Indications of recent and past landslides were apparent on the very steep descending slopes. The landslides were limited to shallow translational failures extending to depths of almost 2 feet.The slides did not exceed a length of 30 feet at the bottom failure surface, and had widths of less than 15 feet. Indications of deep seated slope problems were not apparent or observed during the site visit. 17 3.0 SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION Information on subsurface conditions pertaining to the Project was gathered on May 16, and May 24, 2008 by Michael Staten,geotechnical engineer with Envirotech. Specific information on field methods,sampling,field testing,subsurface conditions, and results from soil testing are presented in this section of the report. Appendix C of this report includes pertinent information on subsurface conditions for the Project, such as subsoil cross-sections, test pit log(s) representative of the bearing soils of the planned building, and water well report(s). Applicable test pit and well log locations are depicted on the Site Plan and Geologic Map provided in the appendix of this report. 3.1 Field Methods,Sampling and Field Testing Information on subsurface conditions for the Project was accomplished by examining soils within test pits extending to depths of up to 15 feet below the existing ground surface, observing soils within existing cuts on the slope of up to approximately 35 feet below the natural ground surface, and observing soils within the shallow landslides. Information on subsurface conditions also included reviewing geological maps and water well reports originating from nearby properties. Bulk samples were collected at the Project site ranging from approximately 2 feet to 15 feet below the existing ground surface. A bulk sample was transported to PSI laboratory for direct shear testing. An additional sample was obtained by driving brass rings into the sandy clay soils exposed at the landslide. The soil samples collected were secured and transported for laboratory testing. From a sand cone test.Envirotech measured the relative density of the upper soils,at a depth of 1- foot below the existing grade. Relative density was also measured from the exposed sandy clay soils from the aforementioned slide by measuring the unit weight from brass rings. Relative density was also gauged from observing the excavations performed by a John Deere 16OLC backhoe. See the soils testing section below for specific testing results. 3.2 General Geologic Conditions In general, soils at the project are composed of materials from glacial advances. The geologic conditions as presented in the "Geologic Map of Washington," compiled by J. Eric Schuster. 2002 indicates Quaternary sediments, Q,,. Quaternary sediments are generally unconsolidated deposits, and dominantly deposited from glacial drift,including alluvium deposits. This project is located within the Puget Lowland. Typically, "lower tertiary sedimentary rocks unconformably overlie the Crescent Formation."as revealed in the Geologic Map. Initial sedimentary rocks were formed from shales. sandstones and coal deposits from rivers. During the Quaternary period, the Puget Lowland was covered by numerous ice sheets,with the most recent being the Fraser glacier with a peak of approximately 14,000 years ago. Upon the glacial retreat, the landscape was formed by glacial erosion glacial drift deposits. According to the "Geologic Map of Washington—Northwest Quadrant" (2002), the site geology is composed of both glacial till (Q_,,) and advance outwash (QgJ. The glacial till is primarily located in the upper portion of the property such as the building areas,and the advance outwash is shown to be within the lower site geology. Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 na_e 5 Knudsen Tracts Belfair.Washington 98528 Mason County.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 Glacial till, %t, is unsorted, unstratified, highly compacted mixture of clay, silt, sand, gravel, and boulders deposited by glacial ice;may contain interbedded stratified sand,silt,and gravel. Advance outwash. Q., is glaciofluvial sand and gravel and lacustrine clay, silt, and sand deposited during the advance of glaciers; sandy units commonly thick, well sorted, and fine grained, with interlayered coarser sand, gravel, and cobbles;locally contains nonglacial sediments and deposits mapped as transitional between glacial and nonglacial. 3.3 Specific Subsurface Conditions The following subsurface conditions are estimated descriptions of the Project subgrade utilizing information from the depth of penetration at all testing, sampling, observed and investigated locations. Soils for this project were described utilizing the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Using the USCS in conjunction with estimated relative densities and other anticipated engineering properties of the soil, susceptibility for potential landslides. erosion and seismic hazards may be assessed. The Project is composed of native soils with no indications of borrowed fill. For engineering purposes,these native soils consist of distinguishable layers,as presented below. Soils within the upper 15 feet of natural ground were observed to be moist, brown and grey sitly sand (SM) with traces of gravel, cobbles and boulders. This soil description generally includes gravel in the upper 18 inches from the ground surface. Sand content was primarily well graded near the surface, and significant fine sands at depths of over 10 feet. The fines content exhibited low plasticity with small layers of medium plasticity. Weak to moderate cementation was observed throughout test pit 1, and the upper 12 feet of test pit 2. According to the well report soils below the upper 20 feet soil layer consists of brown sandy clay (SC), which extends to a depth of 80 feet below the ground surface. This soil was verified at the face of the recent landside located near the slope toe on Lot 5. 3.3.1 Groundwater From the water well report and knowledge of the general area,permanent groundwater is approximately 150 feet directly below the property at an elevation of about 100 feet above sea level. Perched groundwater at shallow depths was not observed on-site. nor indicated on the well reports. Seepage during wet weather was apparent near the toe of the steep slopes on Lots 4 and 5. 3.4 Soils Testing The soil samples obtained at the Project site during the field investigation were preserved and transported for possible laboratory testing. Visual classification of soils was performed in the field. The following soil tests were performed in accordance with the American Standards for Testing and Materials(ASTM): 8 Visual Classifications(ASTM D2488); Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 6 Knudsen Tracts Belfair.Washington 98528 Mason County.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 I Sand cone test(ASTM D1556); 1 Brass ring unit weight test;and, 1 Direct Shear(ASTM D3080). The results from the visual classification are presented above in the Subsurface Conditions Section at depths of up to 35 feet below the natural ground surface. Specifically, upper sandy soils consisted of approximately 30% gravel. 50% sand-sized soils. and 20% silt. Variations included as a silt content ranging from 10% to 25%, and gravel content of less than 5%. The underlying clayey soils consisted of approximately 0% gravel, 35% sand, and 65% medium plastic clay. A sand cone test, completed by Envirotech was performed near test pit 1. This test indicated that near surface dense, low to moderately cemented soils had a moisture content of 8.1%, and a dry density of 128.1 pcf. One unit weight test was performed by Envirotech by measuring the soils within brass rings that were driven in the exposed clayey strata.This test indicated an in-situ density of 142.2 pcf. Direct shear testing of the weakest substructure was performed by HWA Geosciences. Inc., via PSI. The direct shear test was prepared by remolding the minus No. 4 material to a dry unit weight of approximately 110 pcf, and a moisture content of about 10%. Three shear trials were run at normal stresses of 2.0. 4.0 and 8.0 ksf. The apparent strength parameters from the direct shear test indicated soil cohesion of 70 psf,and an angle of internal friction of 32.8 degrees.

These recommendations have been made available based on the planned improvements as outlined in the Introduction Section of this report; general observations, including drainage and topography as recapitulated in the Surface Conditions Section; and. soil conditions that were identified from the geotechnical investigation that is summarized in the Subsurface Investigation Section. Engineering analysis and recommendations for the Project that is provided herein, includes pertinent information for building foundations, earthwork construction, slope stability/erosion control,drainage,vegetation and seismic considerations. 4.1 Building Foundation Recommendations Recommendations provided in this section account for the site development of a typical one- or two-story, single family residential structure. Below the upper 12 inches of Project soils, there is apparently one distinguishable layers of soil that will influence the bearing capacity and settlement of the structures. The recommended allowable bearing capacities and settlements as presented below, consider the probable type of construction as well as the field investigation results by implementing practical engineering judgment within published engineering standards. Evaluations include classifying site soils, and deriving probable relative densities, unit weights and angles of internal friction of the in-situ soils based on observed field conditions and soil testing for this Project. The frost penetration depth is not expected to extend beyond 12 inches below the ground surface for this Project under normal circumstances and anticipated design features. The soils on-site have moderate frost susceptible characteristics and should be used only to the extents provided in this report. 4.1.1 Bearing Capacity For the existing site conditions, bearing values should increase with depth. Existing in- situ soils for this Project indicates that the structure can be established on shallow. continuous or isolated footings. Foundations shall be established on relatively undisturbed native soil. Alternatively, foundations may be constructed on selective re- compacted native soil or compacted engineered fill as described in the Earthwork Construction Recommendations Section of this report. Footing width and depth recommendations shall be adhered to, and are based on 1500 pounds per square feet(psf) maximum structural bearing pressure. For a bearing capacity requirement of no more than 1500 psf, a minimum footing width of 15 inches shall be placed at a minimum of 18 inches below the existing ground surface. Foundation recommendations are made available based on adherence to the remaining recommendations that are provided in this report. For foundations placed in building pads consisting of engineered fill, 12-inch footings may be used at a depth of 12 inches below the final ground surface. 4.1.2 Settlement Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 8 Knudsen Tracts Belfair.Washington 98528 Mason County.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 Total and differential settlement that a structure will undergo depends primarily on the subsurface conditions, type of structure, amount and duration of pressure exerted by the structure. reduction of pore water pressure, and in some instances, the infiltration of free moisture. Based on the expected native soil conditions, anticipated development. and construction abides by the recommendations in this report, the assumed foundation system may undergo a maximum of 1.0 inch total settlement,and a maximum differential settlement of 0.75 inch. 4.13 Concrete Slahs-on-Grade Interior slabs, if utilized, should be supported on a minimum of 6 inches of compacted coarse, granular material that is placed over undisturbed native subgrade or engineered fill. Native soils found at the Project site are not suitable for use as the material directly beneath concrete slabs. The top 4 to 12 inches of native soil should be removed prior to the placement and compaction of the aforementioned 6-inch coarse, granular material. Although not required for the structural integrity of the concrete slab-on-grade, a vapor barrier is usually used for damp-proofing. If vapor barriers are used, it is suggested to utilize a barrier that is sufficiently thick to resist puncturing during construction, or place a 2 inch layer of sand above the barrier prior to placing the concrete slab. 4.2 Lateral Earth Pressures Retaining walls may be utilized for this Project. The lateral earth pressures exerted through the backfill of a retaining wall are dependent upon several factors including height of retained soil behind the wall, type of soil that is retained, degree of backfill compaction, slope of backfill. surcharges,hydrostatic pressures,earthquake pressures,and the direction and distance that the top of the wall moves. An equivalent fluid unit weight used for structural design may be estimated as the product of the backfill soil unit weight and the earth pressure coefficient for at-rest pressures. Retaining walls should be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure based on an equivalent fluid unit weight of 45 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) and 60 pcf for backfill consisting of engineered fill and native soils. respectively. See the Earthwork Construction Recommendations Section for details concerning the use of native soils,engineered fill and placement of backfill. Lateral earth pressure recommendations are based on retaining structures with relatively flat or descending sloping backfill, and the backfill conforming to the recommendations outlined in the Earthwork Construction Recommendations Section of this report. For instances when it is necessary to require ascending sloping backfill or structures will induce passive earth pressures, additional design parameters must be accounted for in the retaining wall analysis.For these cases, recommendations should only be provided by a qualified engineer after the type of backfill is specified,inclination of backfill slope is estimated,and the final wall height is determined. 4.3 Earthwork Construction Recommendations Founding material for building foundations shall consist of undisturbed native soils. Compacted engineered fill, or selective re-compacted native soils may be used to the extents provided in this Earthwork Construction Recommendations Section. The following recommendations include Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical lnvestiaation PO Box 984 vase 9 Knudsen Tracts Belfair.Washington 98528 Mason County.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 excavations, subgrade preparation,type of fill, and placement of fill for building foundations. 4.3.1 Excavation Excavation is recommended to remove any excessive organic content or other deleterious material, if present, beneath foundations and to achieve appropriate foundation depth. Additional sub-excavation will be required for this Project if the soils below the required foundation depth are loose, saturated, or otherwise incompetent due to inappropriate land disturbing, or excessive water trapped within foundation excavations prior to foundation construction. All soils below the bottom of the excavation shall be competent, and relatively undisturbed or properly compacted fill. If these soils are disturbed or deemed incompetent, re-compaction of these soils below the anticipated footing depth is necessary. Excavations shall be completely dewatered, compacted, and suitable before placement of additional native soil, engineered fill or structural concrete. It is suggested that foundation excavations are inspected by a geotechnical engineer or qualified professional in order to assess the bearing material prior to the placement of structural footings. 4.3.2 Placement and Compaction of Native Soils and Engineered FIR For engineered fill or disturbed native soils that will be utilized as fill material directly beneath foundations, observation and/ or geotechnical testing is recommended prior to foundation construction. The following placement and compaction requirements are necessary. For disturbed native soils or engineered fill beneath foundations, limits of compacted or re-compacted fill shall extend laterally from the bottom edge of the foundation at a rate of one foot for each foot of compacted or re-compacted fill beneath the foundation. See the illustration below. J&FOOTINGC❑MPACTEDNATIVE SOILS OR ENGINEEREDFILL I I UNDISTURBED SUBGRA)lE Both engineered fill and native soils used as compacted fill should be free of roots and other organics, rocks over 6 inches in size, or any other deleterious matter. Engineered fill should consist of 60%to 100% gravel-sized material(particles between 3/16-inch and 3 inches), and less than 10% fines(particles passing#200 standard sieve)by weight. Compaction shall be achieved in compacted lifts not to exceed 8 inches and 12 inches for native soils and engineered fill, respectively. Each lift should be uniformly compacted to at least 95% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 1557) and within 3% of optimum moisture content. Each lift surface should be adequately maintained Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 pace 10 Knudsen Tracts Belfair.Washington 98528 Mason County.Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 during construction in order to achieve acceptable compaction and inter-lift bonding. 4.33 Retaining Wall Backfdl Native soils may be used as retaining wall backfill for this Project. Backfill may also consist of engineered fill, as presented in this report, or borrow material approved by a geotechnical engineer. Compaction of these materials shall be achieved in compacted lifts of about 12 to 24 inches. Each lift should be uniformly compacted to no more than 90% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 1557). Over-compaction should be prevented since this will cause lateral earth pressures to increase, which may be detrimental to the retaining structure. If clean, coarse gravel soils are utilized as engineered fill, compaction may be achieved from by reasonably densifying granular soils with construction equipment. Backfill for the retaining wall should extend vertically from the top of the footing to the proposed ground surface.At the ground surface,backfill should extend horizontally from the face of the retaining wall to at least 2 feet in back of the wall for every 4 feet in height. Perforated drains for retaining walls should have a minimum diameter of 4 inches and direct water to an appropriate outfall as recommended in the Surface and Subsurface Drainage Section of this report.Coarse,clean gravel is recommended to be placed at least 12 inches around the drain pipe in order to provide increased drainage capabilities. Non- woven geotextile filter fabric should be wrapped around the aforementioned coarse gravel for reducing the potential of silt migration and clogging of the drain pipe. 4.3.4 Wet Weather Considerations Due to the types of subsurface soils, additional provisions may be required during prolonged wet weather. Every precaution should be made in order to prevent free moisture from saturating the soils within excavations. If the bottom of excavations used for footing placement changes from a moist and dense/hard characteristic as presented in this report to muck or soft, saturated conditions, then these soils become unsuitable for foundation bearing material. If this situation occurs, a geotechnical engineer should be notified, and these soils should be completely removed and replaced with compacted engineered fill or suitable native material as presented in this section. 4.3.5 Building Pads Building pads for this Project shall be constructed per the fill placement and compaction recommendations as presented above. Both engineered fill and native soils may be used for building pads. Building pad slopes shall be no steeper than 2:1 for both compacted engineered fill and re-compacted native soils used as fill. Building pad fill shall not exceed 12 feet for this Project unless approved by a geotechnical engineer. 4.4 Slope Stability and Erosion Control Landslides are natural geologic processes, and structures near slopes possess an inherent risk of adverse settlement, sliding or structural damage due to these processes. Geotechnical engineering Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 11 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12,2008 cannot eliminate these risks for any site with sloping grades because gravity is constantly inducing strain on the sloping soil mass. Excessive wet weather and/ or earthquakes will exacerbate these strains. Geotechnical engineering considers excessive wet weather and `design' earthquakes in order to provide an acceptable factor of safety for developing on or near sloping terrain. These factors of safeties are based on engineering standards such as defining engineering properties of the soil,topography,water conditions,seismic acceleration and surcharges. Surface sloughing or other types of surficial slope movements usually do not affect the deep- seated structural capability of the slope. However, excessive and/or repeated surficial slope movements,if not repaired,may represent a threat to the structural integrity of the slope.Surficial slope movements have occurred are expected to continue naturally on the steep descending slopes during times of extreme inclement weather. It is our opinion that these successive shallow landslides will not threat the planned development during the design life of the structures. According to the Coastal Zone Atlas of Mason County, Washington, the Project is within and near terrain labeled `Stable' and `Intermediate' regarding potential landslide activity. Stable slopes,located within the building areas, are generally not prone to landslides due to small grades and accommodating geology. Historically, intermediate terrains have no known landslides. However, this site is considered inherently hazardous due the existing geology, topography, and the presence of surface sloughing. An additional analyses and recommendations concerning the slopes are presented herein. A Stability Map from the Coastal Zone Atlas for the general area of this Project may be found below in this report this report. According to the Resource Map from the Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR), the Project is not within terrain labeled `highly unstable' or `highly erodible' relating to soils. In addition, DNR did not indicated previous landslide activity near the Project. DNR labeled portions of this project as high slope instability with relation to slopes.This delineation is primarily dependent upon slopes and convergence. Secondly, lithology and precipitation are modeled within this delineation. In summary, this designation is based on mapping without considering the specific site geology or soils. A DNR map is provided below in this report. The Simplified Bishop Method, utilizing `STABLE' software, was used to analyze the static stability of the site slopes. Various radii's and center points of the circle were automatically selected, and produced factor of safeties in a graphical and tabular format. Worst case scenario values were used in the slope stability analysis in regards to topography, surcharges, water content, and cohesion of the site soils. STABLE software has been repeatedly checked with manual calculations, and consistently proved to be a very conservative program. The following soil properties were used in the analysis, and are based on observed conditions, known geology, and/or published parameters: Top 2 feet of weathered soils • Soil unit weight: 132 pcf • Angle of internal friction: 30 degrees • Cohesion: 100 psf Soils from 2 feet to 12 feet Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 12 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12,2008 • Soil unit weight: 135 pcf • Angle of internal friction: 39 degrees • Cohesion: 400 psf Soils from 12 feet to 20 feet • Soil unit weight: 110 pcf • Angle of internal friction: 34 degrees • Cohesion: 100 psf Soils below 20 feet • Soil unit weight: 130 pcf • Angle of internal friction: 30 degrees • Cohesion: 1000 psf Seismic conditions were estimated utilizing worst case scenario values from the static analysis, a quasi-static analysis coefficient of at least 0.15, and applying the applicable values to STABLE software. Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 13 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12.2008 Anticipated building loads, building pads or cuts, are not expected to have any detrimental influence on the global stability of the slopes, provided that the setback requirements, drainage and all other recommendations in this report are adhered to. Based on the aforementioned Project criteria, observations, slope stability analysis, and the recommendations in this report, the building locations have an acceptable factor of safety of over 1.5 relative to deep-seated, static slope failures. Furthermore, an acceptable factor of safety of over 1.1 for seismic conditions was also concluded for this Project. See the slope stability information in Appendix D for input parameters and example of outputs.

Site conditions and the slope stability model concluded unstable descending slopes. Several slope stability analyses were performed for this Project, and one extremely conservative analysis with relation to site topography and soils is presented herein. The topography was modeled based on potential future conditions due to successive shallow slides. This model included moderate slopes of nearly 20% beyond the top, 10% grades beyond the toe, and an 86% slope with a vertical relief of 100 feet. These grades are excessive with relation to probable conditions during the design life of the structures. Soil inputs, as provided above, were based on direct shear testing for the weakest structure, field testing for the upper dense soils, and laboratory testing for the underlying clay layer. Both published soil characteristics and direct correlation of specific soils testing for this Project Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 15 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98.528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12,2008 provide greater strength parameters than what was used in the analysis. 4.4.1 Septic Drainfield Impacts Septic drainfields are not anticipated for this Project due to future plans of stubbing into a municipal system. 4.4.2 Building and Footing Setbacks Provided that assumptions relating to construction occur and recommendations are followed as presented in this report, the factor of safety for slope stability is sufficient for a 40 feet footing setback from the face of the nearby descending slopes exceeding 40%. See the figure below and the Geologic Map in Appendix B for an illustration of the setbacks. TOP OF STRUCTURE SLOPE — SLOPE FACE ' IiLL—III• —III *— 40 FT MIN --�-� FOOTING In addition, footings shall have a minimum setback of 5 feet from the top of building pads consisting of engineered fill. 4.4.3 Temporary and Permanent Erosion Control Based on the USCS description of the Project soils, the native soils have a moderate erodibility factor. Temporary and permanent erosion control measures will be required for site development. Existing erosion control present on-site such as silt fencing appear to be sufficient for this Project. Additional temporary erosion control measures may need to be employed if excessive erosion occurs or required by the County or other prevailing agencies. See Appendix A for approximate locations of existing erosion control facilities. A stormwater management plan has been prepared for this Project, and addresses appropriate temporary and permanent erosion control. Silt fencing is presented in this report as the first choice for temporary erosion control. Any erosion control should be located down-slope and beyond the limits of construction and clearing of vegetation where surface water is expected to flow. If the loss of sediments appears to be greater than expected, or erosion control measures are not functioning as needed, additional measures must be implemented immediately. See Appendix E for sketches and general notes regarding selected erosion control measures. Permanent erosion control is required per the stormwater management plan, and may also be necessary if substantial vegetation has not been established within disturbed areas upon completion of the Project. Temporary erosion control should remain in place until permanent erosion control has been established. Permanent erosion control may include Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 16 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98.528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12,2008 promoting the growth of vegetation within the exposed areas by mulching, seeding or an equivalent measure. Selected recommendations for permanent erosion control are provided in Appendix E. Additional erosion control measures that should be performed include routine maintenance and replacement, when necessary, of permanent erosion control, vegetation,drainage structures and/or features. Sedimentation control should be adequate when utilizing the erosion control recommendations as presented herein together with implementing appropriate erosion controls with the degree of care as expected from a licensed contractor. Erosion control information and specifications in addition to what is provided in this report may be found in the appropriate "Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington,"prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology Water Quality Program. 4.4.4 Surface and Subsurface Drainage Positive drainage should be provided in the final design for all planned residential buildings. Drainage shall include sloping the ground surface, driveways and sidewalks away from the Project structures.All constructed surface and subsurface drains should be adequately maintained during the life of the structure. If drainage problems occur during or after construction, additional engineered water mitigation will be required. This may include a combination of swales, berms, drain pipes, infiltration facilities, or outlet protection in order to divert water away from the structures to an appropriate protected discharge area. Both footing perimeter drains and roof drains are required for this Project. Subsurface water intercepted in the footing perimeter drains, and stormwater collected from roof drains shall be tight-lined to an appropriate outfall location beyond the toe of the steep 40%+ slopes. Recommended outfall locations are delineated on the Geologic Map in Appendix B, and optional drainage details for tightlining are provided in Appendix F of this report. 4.4.5 Vegetation Considerations Vegetation is an excellent measure to minimize surficial slope movements and erosion on slope faces and exposed surfaces. By removing trees, the root strength is decreased over time, thereby lowering the `apparent' cohesion of the soil. Transpiration is decreased, which results in additional groundwater, increased pore water pressure and less cohesion/ friction of the soil particles. Stormwater runoff also increases, and, fewer plants will create less absorption of the force from raindrops, thereby creating the potential for erosion hazards. For existing conditions, vegetation shall not be removed on the face of the steep slope or within 40 feet from the top of the slope.This buffer may be reduced 15 feet as necessary for construction. However, any tree deemed hazardous to life or property shall be removed. If tree removal is necessary, then stumps and roots shall remain in place, and the underbrush and soil shall remain undisturbed as much as possible. Any disturbed soil shall be graded and re-compacted in order to restore the terrain similar to preexisting conditions and drainage patterns. See the Geologic Map in Appendix B of this report for Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 17 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12,2008 a depiction of the vegetation buffer. 4.4.6 Off-site impacts From a geotechnical position, it is Envirotech's opinion that the adjacent properties to the proposed development should not be significantly impacted as a result of this development if all recommendations in this report are followed. This is based on the expected site development,and the recommendations presented in this report. 4.5 Seismic Considerations and Liquefaction Soils immediately below the expected foundation depth for this Project are generally Type D, corresponding to the International Building Code (IBC) soil profiles. According to the IBC, the regional seismic zone is 3 for this Project. The estimated peak ground acceleration ranges from 0.50g to 0.60g.This estimation is based on the United States Geological Survey(USGS)National Seismic Hazard Project in which there is an estimated 2% probability of exceedance within the next 50 years. There are no known faults beneath this Project. The nearest Class `A' or Class `B' fault to this property is the Tacoma Fault Zone,in which is approximately 2 miles to the south of this Project. This information is based on the USGS Quaternary Fault and Fold Database for the United States. The potential for liquefaction and other earthquake induced hazards are believed to be low for this Project. This is based, in part, on the slope stability analysis utilizing seismic considerations in addition to subsurface conditions such as soil characteristics and the lack of a permanent shallow water table. Subgrade characteristics that particularly contribute to problems caused from liquefaction include submerged, confined, poorly-graded granular soils. Although gravel- and silt-sized soil particles could be problematic, fine and medium grained sands are typically subjected to these types of seismic hazards. No significant saturated sand stratifications are anticipated to be within the upper 50 feet of the subsoil for this Project. Envirotech Engineering Geotechnical Investigation PO Box 984 page 18 Knudsen Tracts Belfair,Washington 98528 Mason County,Washington Ph. 360-275-9374 June 12,2008 5.0 CLOSURE Based on the project information and site conditions as presented in this report, it is Envirotech's opinion that additional geotechnical studies are not required to further evaluate this Project. Due to the inherent natural variations of the soil stratification and the nature of the geotechnical subsurface exploration, there is always a possibility that soil conditions encountered during construction are different than those described in this report. Therefore, it is recommended that a qualified engineer observes and documents the construction, or Envirotech is promptly notified if project and subsurface conditions found on-site are not as presented in this report so that we can re-evaluate our recommendations.
