10 FINDINGS OF FACT
Procedural:
11
1. Applicant. The applicant is Harmon Hill of Union.
12
13 2. Hearing. The Hearing Examiner conducted a hearing on the subject
application on January 13, 2004, at 1:00 p.m. in the Mason County Board of
14 Commissioners Meeting Chambers.
15 Substantive:
16 3 Site Description/Proposal. The proposal is to install storm water
17 improvements for a currently developed commercial site. The purpose of the
proposal is to bring the existing and potential new development up to current
18 standards. Construction of storm water improvements will include the installation of
an 18" storm drain on the property to a connection to an existing 36" storm water
19 main on State Route 106. The project will require trenching, bedding and backfilling,
20 as well as installation of concrete anchors and the upgrading of an existing catch
basin. Very little vegetation will need to be removed for the project.
21
The site is located on the south shore of Hood Canal. The subject property is 13.47
22 acres in size and contains several buildings, homes, office space and parking. The
site is used primarily as a retreat center. Physical attributes of the site include
23 relatively steep slopes trending down North towards the Hood Canal. The property
24 contains a mix of cleared, developed areas and well-vegetated, relatively natural
areas. State Route 106 borders the site to the North and separates the developed
25 portion of the property from the Hood Canal shoreline.
{PA056195 8.DOC;1/13009.900000/}
Harmony Hill p. 2 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
4. Characteristics of the Area. The surrounding area is primarily designated
1 as Rural Residential under County zoning. The area is well vegetated and forested
2 with mature evergreens. The area is also characterized as a landslide hazard area due
to steep slopes ranging from 15 - 45" or more, but is mapped as a Class 2 landslide
3 hazard area by Smith and Carson(1977). Under this definition,the area is considered
relatively stable under normal conditions, but may become unstable due to human
4 activities.
5 5. Adverse Impacts of Proposed Use. As mitigated as recommended by staff,
6 there should be no adverse impacts created by the proposed developments. The
applicant has performed a detailed geotechnical analysis to insure that the project
7 design will not impair slope stability. Staff recommended conditions of approval do
not allow any adverse impacts to water quality.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
9 Procedural:
l0
1. Authority of Hearing Examiner. MCC 15.03.050(1)provides the Examiner
11 with the authority to review and issue a final decision on shore permit applications.
12 Substantive:
1' 2. Shoreline Designations. The shoreline designation of the site is Urban
14 Residential. Hood Canal is also considered a Shoreline of Statewide Significance
under the County Shoreline Master Program and State Shoreline Management Act.
15
3. Ayylicable Review Criteria. MCC 15.09.055(A) requires a substantial
16 development permit for any substantial development within the shoreline jurisdiction.
17 MCC 15.09.055(F) requires that permit for substantial development permits be
subject to review by the Hearing Examiner. MCC 15.09.055(F)(2)(c) provides that
18 the Examiner shall base a decision on a substantial development permit application on
the Shoreline Master Program for Mason County and the policies and procedures of
19 Chapter 90.58 RCW,the Shoreline Management Act. MCC 7.08 defines a substantial
development as any development of which total cost for market value exceeds $5,000
20 or any development which material interferes with any normal public use of the water
21 or shorelines of the state. The staff report indicates that the project is worth over
$5,000. The applicable shoreline policies and regulations are quoted and addressed
1�1� below:
2 RCW 90.58.020(1): Recognize and protect the state-wide interest over local interest.
24 4. The proposed storm water improvements will protect against flooding and
25 further erosion of the shoreline, thus serving the state-wide interest of shoreline
protection.
(PA0561958.DOC;1/13009.900000/)
Harmony Hill p. 3 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
I RCW 90.58.020(2): Preserve the natural character of the shoreline.
2 5. By controlling storm water flows, the proposed improvements will help
3 protect the adjoining short shoreline and preserve it as contemplated above.
4 RCW 90.58.020(3): Result in long-term over short-term benefit.
5 6. As noted previously, these storm water improvements will help protect the
6 adjoining shoreline and will do so on a long-term basis.
7 RCW 90.58.020(4): Protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline.
8 7. By controlling storm water flows, the proposed improvements will protect
the resources and ecology of the shoreline.
9
10 RCW 90.58.020(5): Increase public access to publicly owned areas of the
shorelines.
11
8. Mason County has no constitutional authority to mitigate this project to
12 require public access to publicly owned shorelines due to the installation of riprap.
13 The project will not decrease public access to publicly owned areas of the shoreline.
14 RCW 90.58.020(6): Increase recreational opportunities for the public and the
shoreline.
15
9. The proposed storm water improvements will protect fish habitat and
16 prevent damage to shorelines by flooding. This will increase recreational
17 opportunities for the public on the shoreline.
18 10. The proposed storm water improvements are similarly consistent with the
other policies enunciated in RCW 90.58.020 for the reasons cited repeatedly above,
19 namely,prevention of flooding and protection of adjoining shorelines.
20 MCC 7.16.040 Policy 1: Commercial development on shorelines should be
21 encouraged to provide physical and/or visual access to the shoreline, and other
opportunities for the public to enjoy the shoreline.
22
11. This proposal will not add to or detract from the public's ability to use,
23 access or view the shoreline. Given this absence of nexus between public access and
a proposed shoreline, the Mason County has no constitutional authority to require
24 physical and/or visual access to the shoreline.
25
(PA0561958.DOC;1/13009.900000/)
Harmony Hill p. 4 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
MCC 7.16.040 Policy 2: Multiple use concepts, which include open space and
1 recreation, should be encouraged in commercial developments.
2 12. The proposed storm water improvements have no established nexus to the
3 need for open space or recreation and Mason County, therefore, cannot require any
open space or recreation mitigation measures.
4
MCC 7.16.040 Policy 3: Commercial development should be aesthetically
5 compatible with the surrounding area. Structures should not significantly impact
6 views from upland properties, public roadways or from the water
7 13. This project will be underground, so there will not be aesthetic or visual
impact.
8
MCC 7.16.040 Policy 4: The location of commercial developments along shorelines
9 should ensure the protection of natural areas or systems identified as having
10 geological, ecological, biological or cultural significance.
11 14. The permit is sufficiently conditioned to protect any significant
environmental or cultural features. No significant impacts have been identified or are
12 expected.
13 MCC 7.16.040 Policy No. 5: Commercial developments should be encouraged to be
14 located inland from the shoreline area unless they are dependent on a shoreline
location. Commercial developments should be discouraged over-water or in
15 marshes, bogs, swamps and floodplains.
16 15. The project is a whole is located as far inland as it can be and ties into existing
17 shoreline features and improvements along S.R. 106.
18 MCC 7.16.040 Policy No. 6: New commercial development in shorelines should be
encouraged to locate in those areas with existing commercial development that will
19 minimize sprawl and the inefficient use of shoreline areas.
20 16. The project is located on an existing commercially zoned property and
21 will serve the existing commercial development.
22 MCC 7.16.040 Policy No. 7: Parking facilities should be placed inland, away from
the immediate water's edge and recreational beaches.
23
17. The existing parking is proposed to be within 200' of the shoreline.
24
25
1 PA0561958.DOC;1/13009.900000/)
Harmony Hill p. 5 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
MCC 7.16.040 Policy No. 8: Commercial development should be designed and
1 located to minimize impacts of noise and/or light generated by the development upon
adjacent properties. Commercial developments, which generate significant noise
impacts, should be discouraged.
3
18. Staff recommended conditions of approval limits construction in day light
4 hours to minimize noise impacts. No other aspect of the proposed storm water
5 improvements implicates adverse noise or light impacts.
6 MCC 7.16.040 Use Regulation No. 1: The County shall use the following
information in reviewing commercial development proposals:
7
• Nature of the activity;
R • Need for shore frontage;
90 Special considerations for enhancing the relationship of the activity to
the shoreline;
10 Provisions for public visual or physical access to the shoreline;
• Provisions to ensure that the development will not cause severe adverse
11 environmental impacts;
• Provisions to mitigate any significant noise impacts;
12 • Provisions to mitigate light or glare impacts.
13
19. The nature of the project is non-intrusive and meant to control and manage
14 on-site storm water to prevent erosion and other problems. The location of the
project within shoreline jurisdiction is due to the topography of the site and location
15 of the adjacent state highway and existing storm water facilities. No significant
16 environmental or other impacts are expected. The project should mitigate potential
environmental problems associated with uncontrolled storm water. Staff
17 recommended conditions of approval also help to protect water quality and also any
adverse impacts resulting from construction of the site, such as erosion and noise.
18
MCC 7.16.040 Use Regulation No. 2: Commercial development may be permitted
19 on the shoreline in the following descending order of priority: water dependent,
2 water related and water oriented. Non-water related, non-water depending and non-
water oriented developments in an urban and rural environment may be permitted by
21 Substantial Development Permit when the parcel of land to be developed is a
minimum of 100'from OHWM and is located on the upland side of a public roadway,
22 railroad right of way or government controlled property.
23
20. The project is water related in that it is designed to prevent adverse
24 impacts to shoreline water quality and shoreline resources caused by storm water
development from upland developments.
25
{PA0561958.DOC;1/13009.900000/}
Harmony Hill p. 6 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
MCC 7.16.040 Use Regulation No. 6: New commercial developments shall be
1 located adjacent to existing commercial developments whenever possible.
2 21. The proposed storm water facilities will be installed adjacent to existing
3 commercial developments.
4 MCC 7.16.040 Use Regulation No. 7: New or expanded structures shall not extend
more than 35'in height above average grade level.
5
6 22. The proposed storm water improvements will be underground.
7 MCC 7.16.040 Use Regulation No. 8: Commercial developments adjacent to
aquaculture operations shall practice strict pollution control procedures.
8
23. There is no evidence that the project is adjacent to any aquaculture
9 operations. Even if it was, the project is mitigated to prohibit any degradation of
10 Water quality, which should serve to adequately protect aquaculture operations.
11 MCC 7.16.040 Use Regulation No. 9: Commercial developments shall be located
and designed to minimize noise impacts on adjacent properties.
12
24. The only noise associated with the project will be during construction, and
13 staff has minimized these noise impacts by limiting construction noise to day light
14 hours.
15 DECISION
16 The Examiner approves the requested shoreline substantial development permit and
shoreline conditional use permit for the proposed storm water improvements, as
17 depicted in Exhibit 2, the Shoreline Permit Application. The permit is conditioned as
18 recommended at Page 5 of the staff report, Exhibit 1.

RE: Harmony Hill, Shoreline Substantial Development Permit(SHR2003-00024)
STAFF REPORT
I. Introduction. This report evaluates a proposal by Harmony Hill (non-profit
retreat and wellness center) to install storm water, drainage management system
improvements for a currently developed site adjacent to State Route 106, East of
Union Washington. The site is within 200-feet of the Hood Canal shoreline.
Planning staff recommends approval subject to attached conditions.
II. Applicant. Harmony Hill of Union.
III. Date of Application: November 11, 2003
IV. Property Location. 7362 East S.R. 106, Union WA. Just East of the Union
Rural Activity Center on State Route 106, approximately '/a mile East of the
Alderbrook Inn. The jurisdictional shoreline water body is the Hood Canal.
Legal description: Parcel#32233-44-00040, W1/2 GOVT LOT 1, S 9/57 EX
TAX 683-C, 669-C 7362 &7361 E HIGHWAY 106 UNION
V. Project Description. The proposal is to install storm water, drainage
management system improvements for a currently developed commercial site.
The purpose of the proposal is to bring the existing and potential new
development up to current standards. Construction of storm water control
facilities will include the installation of a 18" storm drain on property and connect
to existing 36" storm water main on State Route 106. The project will require
p J
trenching, bedding and backfilling, as well as installation of concrete anchors and
upgrading of existing catch basin. The project should not disturb adjacent land
uses due to the dense vegetation and distance to other uses. Very little vegetation
will need to be removed for the project.

VI. Evaluations.
A. Characteristics of the site. The site is located on the south shore of the Hood
Canal. The subject property is 13.47 acres in size and contains several
buildings,homes,office space and parking. The site is used primarily as a
retreat center. Physical attributes of the site include relatively steep slopes
trending down North towards the Hood Canal. The property contains a mix of
cleared, developed areas and well-vegetated,relatively natural areas. State
Route 106 borders the site to the North and separates the developed portion of
the property from the Hood Canal shoreline.
B. Characteristics of the area. The surrounding area is primarily designated as
Rural Residential under County zoning. The area is well vegetated and
forested with mature evergreens. The area is also characterized as a landslide
hazard area due to steep slopes ranging from 15 to 45% or more, but is
mapped as a Class 2 landslide hazard area by Smith and Carson(1977).
Under this definition the area is considered relatively stable under normal
conditions,but may become unstable due to human activities.
C. Shoreline Designation. The shoreline designation of the site is Urban
Residential. The Hood Canal is also considered a Shoreline of Statewide
Significance under the County Shoreline Master Program and State Shoreline
Management Act.
D. Comprehensive Plan Designation/Zoning. The Mason County
Comprehensive Plan designation for the site is Rural and the site zoning is
Rural Tourist. The current use as a retreat/wellness center is a conforming
land use.
VII. SEPA Compliance. A Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance was issued
on September 26, 2003 for the proposal. The only comments received were from
WA Dept. of Ecology stating that the proposal may need a Shoreline Substantial
Development permit if the project had a value of over$5,000.
VIII. Other Permits. The proposal requires a Mason Environmental Permit, which has
been applied for. Other permits may be needed and have possibly already been
obtained from the WA Dept. of Transportation to tie into the existing storm water
system.
IX. Analysis. This proposal requires a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit
because of the because the fair market value of the project within shoreline
jurisdiction exceeds $5,000,per section 7.08 of the Mason County Shoreline
Master, definition of Substantial Development. The proposal does not appear to
trigger the need for a Conditional Use Permit.
scottUHarmonyHillSDPreport 2
Commercial Development Policies and Use Regulations of SMP Chapter
7.16.040 follow. Staff analysis(in Italics)of consistency with policies and use
regulations follow each policy and use regulation statement.
Policies:
1. Commercial development on shorelines should be encouraged to provide
physical and/or visual access to the shoreline, and other opportunities for the
public to enjoy the shoreline. Staff response: This proposal will not add to
or detract from the public's ability to use, access or view the shoreline.
2. Multiple use concepts,which include open space and recreation, should be
encouraged in commercial developments. Staff response: Not Applicable.
3. Commercial development should be aesthetically compatible with the
surrounding area. Structures should not significantly impact views from
upland properties,public roadways or from the water. Staff response: This
project consists of underground utilities, so there will be little or no aesthetic
or visual impact.
4. The location of commercial developments along shorelines should ensure the
protection of natural areas or systems identified as having geological,
ecological,biological or cultural significance. Staff response: The permit is
sufficiently conditioned to protect any significant environmental or cultural
features. No significant impacts have been identified or are expected.
5. Commercial developments should be encouraged to be located inland from
the shoreline area unless they are dependent on a shoreline location.
Commercial developments should be discouraged over-water or in marshes,
bogs, swamps and floodplains. Staff response: The project is located as far
inland as it can be and ties into existing shoreline features and improvements
along S.R. 106.
6. New commercial development in shorelines should be encouraged to locate
in those areas with existing commercial development that will minimize
sprawl and the inefficient use of shoreline areas. Staff response: The
project is located on an existing commercially zoned property.
7. Parking facilities should be placed inland, away from the immediate water's
edge and recreational beaches. Staff response: The existing parking is not
located near the shoreline and the project would not promote additional
parking near the shoreline..
8. Commercial development should be designed and located to minimize
impacts of noise and/or light generated by the development upon adjacent
properties. Commercial developments, which generate significant noise
scottl/HarmonyHilIMPreport 3
impacts, should be discouraged. Staff response: No light or glare impacts
would be expected.
Use Regulations:
1. The County shall use the following information in reviewing commercial
development proposals:
• Nature of the activity;
• Need for shore frontage;
• Special considerations for enhancing the relationship of the activity to the
shoreline;
• Provisions for public visual or physical access to the shoreline;
• Provisions to ensure that the development will not cause severe adverse
environmental impacts;
• Provisions to mitigate any significant noise impacts;
• Provisions to mitigate light or glare impacts.
Staff response: The nature of the project is non-intrusive and meant to
control and manage on-site storm water to prevent erosion and other problems.
The location of the project within shoreline jurisdiction is due to the topography
of the site and location of the adjacent state highway and existing storm water
facilities. No significant environmental or other impacts are expected. The
project should mitigate potential environmental problems associated with
uncontrolled storm water.
2. Commercial development may be permitted on the shoreline in the following
descending order of priority: water dependent,water related and water oriented. Non-
water related,non-water dependent and non-water oriented developments in an urban and
rural environment may be permitted by Substantial Development Permit when:
• The parcel of land to be developed is a minimum of 100 feet from OHWM and is
located on the upland side of a public roadway,railroad right of way or government
controlled property. Staff response: Not applicable.
3. Parking and loading areas shall be located well away from the immediate waters'edge
and beaches,unless there is no other practical location for parking. Perimeters of parking
areas shall be landscaped to minimize visual impacts to the shorelines,roadways and
adjacent properties subject to approval by Public Works and/or Department of
Transportation. Permit application shall identify the size, general type and location of
landscaping. Design of parking and loading areas shall ensure that surface runoff does
not pollute adjacent waters or cause soil or beach erosion. Design shall provide for storm
water retention. Parking plans shall be reviewed by Mason County Department of Public
Works for compliance with all applicable County Ordinances. Creation of parking areas
by landfilling beyond OHW mark or in biological wetlands is prohibited. Staff
response: The project is meant to mitigate existing and potential future parking
facilities.
4. Those portions of a commercial development, which are not water dependent,are
prohibited over the water. Staff response: Not applicable.
scottl/HarmonyHillSDPreport 4
t
5. Water supply and waste facilities shall comply with the strictest established
guidelines, standards and regulations. Staff response: Not applicable.
6. New commercial developments shall be located adjacent to existing
commercial developments whenever possible. Staff response: The proposed
storm water facilities will be installed adjacent to existing commercial
developments.
7. New or expanded structures shall not extend more than 35 feet in height above
average grade level. Staff response: Not applicable.
8. Commercial developments adjacent to aquaculture operations shall practice
strict pollution control procedures. Staff response: The project should
partially mitigate any potential impacts to water quality or aquaculture by
appropriately managing on-site storm water and preventing unnecessary
erosion and other sources of pollution.
9. Commercial developments shall be located and designed to minimize noise
impacts on adjacent properties. Staff response: The only noise associated
with the project will be during construction.
X. Conclusions. As designed, the project is consistent with the Mason County
Shoreline Master Program Chapter 7.16.040 (Commercial Development. Staff
recommends approval of the proposal, subject to the following conditions:
1. The project shall be required to control erosion during construction.
Removal of vegetation should be minimized and any areas disturbed
should be restored to prevent erosion and other environmental
impacts.
2. Water quality is not to be degraded to the detriment of the aquatic
environment as a result of this project.
3. Debris or deleterious material resulting from construction shall be
removed from the project site and shall not be allowed to enter waters
of the State.
4. The applicant is responsible for obtaining and adhering to the
conditions of all other relevant permits for this project,including but
not limited to permits from the Washington Department of Ecology,
Washington Department of Transportation and Washington
Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Dear Mr. Longanecker:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the mitigated determination of nonsignificance for
the Harmony Hill Storm Water Control project(SEP2003-00093) located at 7362 East State Route
106 in Union as proposed by Harmony Hill,Gretchen Schodde and Michael Sumner. We reviewed
the environmental checklist and have the following comments:
It appears that some of the proposed work is taking place within shoreline jurisdiction. If
this is the case and the fair market value of the work within shoreline jurisdiction exceeds
$5000 a shoreline substantial development permit will be necessary.
If you have any questions or would like to respond to these comments please call Kim Van
Zwalenburg(Shorelands)at(360)407-6520.

RE: SEPA determination No. SEP2003-00093, storm water improvement project.
To whom it may concern:
The County recently received a comment on the above-mentioned SEPA determination
indicating that more information is needed to determine whether the proposal requires a
Shoreline Substantial Development Permit. The comment was received by telephone
from Kim VanSwalenberg with WA DOE, SW Region Shorelands Division. Kim said
that she would follow up with written comments, however I wanted to inform you of this
as soon as possible.
In order to determine whether the project requires a shoreline permit we need to know
what the fair market value of the project is within shoreline jurisdiction(200 feet from
the ordinary high water mark of the Hood Canal). If the portion of the project within
shoreline jurisdiction has a value of less than$5,000.00 it would be exempt. In order to
determine this we could most likely use the bid price, or an estimate from the project
consultant or engineer. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
PS. Hopefully you have contacted Gary Yando, Mason County Landfill and Utilities
Director about a maintenance cost sharing agreement for the project. If you need it
Gary's phone number is 360 427-9670 ext. 270. Thanks.

SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION &
FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Introduction:
This report presents the results of a soils exploration and foundation analysis for the proposed complex. This
investigation was conducted for Harmony Hill, near Union WA.
Authorization:
Authorization to perform this exploration and analysis was in the form of a written authorization to proceed
from Mike Sumner.
Purpose:
The purpose of this foundation exploration and analysis was to determine the various soil profile components,
the engineering characteristics of the foundation materials and to provide criteria for use by the design
engineers in preparing or verifying the suitability of the foundation design.
Scope:
The scope of the exploration and analysis included a review of geological maps of the area and geologic and
related literature, a reconnaissance of the immediate site, surficial examination, field and laboratory testing,
and an engineering analysis and evaluation of the foundation materials.
General:
The exploration and analysis of the foundation conditions reported herein are considered sufficient in detail
and scope to form a reasonable basis for the foundation design. Any revision in the plans for the proposed
structures from those enumerated in this report should be brought to the attention of the soils consultant so
that he may determine if changes in the foundation recommendations are required. If deviations from the
noted subsurface conditions are encountered during construction, they should also be brought to the attention
of the soils consultant.
The soils consultant warrants that the findings, recommendations, specifications, or professional advice
contained herein, have been promulgated after being prepared according to generally accepted professional
engineering practice in the fields of foundation engineering, soil mechanics and engineering geology. No
other warranties are implied or expressed.

G EOTECHNICAL
TESTING LABORATORY
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Harmony Hill and their retained design consultants.
Findings and recommendations within this report are for specific application to the proposed project. All
recommendations are according to generally accepted soils and foundation engineering practices.
General Geology Of Area:
The soil as described by the Coastal Zone Atlas of Washington for Mason County is a Vashon till.
General Climate Of Area:
The climate is temperate and marine. The influence of the Puget Sound and the Pacific Ocean modifies
summer and winter temperatures and eliminates periods of extreme heat and cold.
DESCRIPTION OF SITE
Site Location:
The site for the proposed complex, which is the subject of this report, is located to the south of SR 106 and
east of Alderbrook, near Union, WA. [See vicinity map.]
Site Topography, Drainage And Vegetation:
The site is situated on a slight bluff gently sloping toward SR 106 to the north. The site has extensive ditching
in and around the roads, parking and buildings in order to alleviate surface runoff. Most of the area around
the complex is used as garden and lawn. Native vegetation, predominantly evergreen trees are found farther
to the south, upslope and away from the complex. All drainage percolates about three ft. into the ground l
through the top layer and travels over the surface of the impervious layer underneath to the roadside ditch !
along SR 106. The site is currently being used as a complex for Harmony Hill.
FIELD EXPLORATION
General Notes:
The field exploration to determine the engineering characteristics of the foundation materials included a
reconnaissance of the project site, performing field penetrometer tests and recovering disturbed grab samples.
Testing Procedures:
Penetrometer Tests - From the samples obtained, penetrometer tests were performed to obtain approximate
bearing capacities of the individual soils strata. The results of the penetrometer tests provide a direct reading
of bearing capacity of the soils being tested.

FOUNDATION DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
General Notes:
Two requirements must be satisfied in the design of foundations. First, the load must be less than the ultimate
bearing capacity of the foundation soils to maintain stability, and secondly, the differential settlement must not
exceed an amount that will produce adverse behavior to the superstructure. The allowable settlement is
usually exceeded before bearing capacity considerations become important; thus, the allowable bearing
pressure is normally controlled by settlement considerations. Considering the subsurface conditions and the
proposed construction, it is recommended that the structure be founded upon conventional reinforced
concrete footings. Settlements should not exceed tolerable limits if the following design and construction
recommendations are observed.
Foundation Design Recommendations:
On the basis of the data obtained from the site and the test results from the various laboratory tests performed,
GEOTECHNICAL TESTING LAB recommends that the following guidelines be used for the net allowable
soils bearing capacity.
Net Allowable
Footing ASTM D 1557 Soils Bearing
Depth Subgrade Compaction Capacity
18" 95 % 2,000 lbs./ft2
Any excessively loose or soft spots or areas that do not meet the compaction requirements that are
encountered in the footing subgrade will require over-excavation and backfilling with at least 2 ft. of structural
fill. In order to minimize the effects of any slight differential movement that may occur due to variations in
the character of the supporting soils and any variations in seasonal moisture contents, it is recommended that
all footings be suitably reinforced to make them as rigid as possible.
CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS
Earthwork:
It is recommended that all loose soils and deleterious materials be stripped from the foundation area to the
firm native soil and wasted. Exact depths of stripping should be adjusted in the field to assure that the entire
root zone is removed. It is recommended that the final exposed subgrade be inspected by a representative of
the soils consultant. This inspection should verify that all organic material has been removed. Any soft spots
or deflecting areas should be removed to firm native soil and/or replaced with structural fill.
After the existing subgrade soils are excavated to design grade,the footing area shall be compacted to 95% of
the maximum dry density as per ASTM D-1557. Enough density tests should be taken to monitor proper
compaction. For structural fill beneath any of the structures, one in-place density test per lift for every 100 sq.
ft. is recommended.

Water Level Measurements: - Groundwater was observed in the roadside and various other ditches on the
site. In relatively pervious soils, such as sands, indicated groundwater elevations are considered to be reliable
groundwater levels. In impervious soil (cohesive), the accurate determination of the groundwater elevation
may not be possible even after several days of observation. Seasonal variations, temperature and recent
rainfall conditions may influence the level of the groundwater table and volumes of water will depend on the
permeability of the soils.
Laboratory Testing Program:
Along with the field investigation, a supplemental laboratory testing program was conducted to determine
additional pertinent engineering characteristics of the foundation materials necessary in analyzing the behavior
of the proposed structures.
The laboratory testing program included supplementary visual classification and water content determinations
on all samples. In addition, selected samples were subjected to Grain Size Analysis.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
General Notes:
The types of foundation materials encountered have been visually classified and are included in the report. The
results of the field penetrometer and other laboratory tests are presented in the report.
Description Of Foundation Materials:
The geology of the area as taken from the "Coastal Zone Atlas, Volume 9, Mason County" consists of
Vashon till (Qvt) that transitions into Pleistocene sand deposits older than Vashon till along SR 106. The
Vashon till was deposited by the Vashon Stade of the Frazier Glaciation. The Pleistocene sand deposits
consist of sands, silty sands, and pebbly sands commonly bedded and may contain gravel lenses and inter-
bedding with the sands. On this site there was noticeable inter-bedding of gravel with the native sands. The
native soils can be considered at or near their natural angle of repose, and that the factor of safety for most of
the slope will be near unity.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this section is to enumerate details of the proposed structures. The following information was
provided by the project manager. The construction would consist of wood frame structures not to exceed
two stories in height. Conventional reinforced spread footings and reinforced slab-on-grade are
contemplated. Differential settlements are limited to 3/4 inch. Loads of 2,000 pounds per sq. ft. were assumed
for settlement calculations.

ccavation equipment may disturb the bearing soils and loose pockets can occur at the bearing
level that were
,t disclosed by the soil borings. For this reason, it is recommended that the bottoms of the excavations be
mpacted in place by vibratory compactors. The upper 12 inches should be recompacted to achieve an in-
ice density of not less than 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D-1557.

least equal to the thickness of the fill between the bottom of the foundation and the underlying soils. cThe
�npacted backfill for the support of the foundation, the subgrade preparation and the placing of the backfill
)uld be monitored continuously by a testing laboratory so that the work is performed according to these
ommendations.
:cavations:
allow excavations required for construction that do not exceed four ft. in depth may be constructed with
slopes approaching vertical. Proper care must be taken to protect personnel and equipment.
)or Slab on Grade:
ore the placing of concrete floors or pavements on the site, or before any floor supporting fill is placed, the
anic, loose or obviously compressive materials must be removed. The subgrade should then be proof
ed to confirm that the subgrade contains no soft or deflecting areas. Areas of excessive yielding should be
avated and backfilled with structural fill.
additional fill used to increase the elevation of the floor slab should meet the requirement for structural
Structural fill should be placed in layers of not more than 12 inches in thickness, at moisture contents at
bove optimum, and compacted to a minimum density of 95% of the maximum dry density as determined
WM designation D-1557.
ranular mat should be provided below the floor slabs. This should be a minimum of four inches in
cness and properly compacted. The mat should consist of sand or a sand and gravel mixture with non-
:ic fines. The material should all pass a 3/4 inch sieve and should contain less than 5% passing the #200
Because groundwater can be expected to be at shallower depths during the winter months, a moisture
er may be placed beneath all floor slabs.

Lateral Earth Pressures:
Lateral earth pressures are dependent upon the backfill materials and their configuration and moisture content.
An active coefficient of 0.25 for lateral pressures and a friction coefficient of 0.60 may be used for the
structural fill.
Groundwater Control:
Groundwater was encountered at the time the field exploration was conducted. Groundwater is expected to
cause some difficulties during construction of this project. It is recommended that runoff caused by wet
weather be directed away from all open excavations. The on-site soils can be expected to become soft and
pump if subjected to excessive traffic after becoming wet during periods of bad weather. This can be avoided
by constructing temporary or permanent driveway sections should wet weather be forecast.
The footing drain on all structures shall be placed so that the pipe invert is below the bottom of the footing
and roof drains are not connected to the footing drain.
On-site internal driveways should be constructed so that the roadside ditch acts as an interceptor. This can
be accomplished by placing the bottom of the ditch 6 inches into the impervious soil and maintaining a
positive gradient to the discharge area. Should the ditch become excessively steep or deep, the ditch can be
filled with quarry spawl (6 in. minus) to maintain safety. This should only be needed on the southernmost
side of the highest road.
Geoseismic Setting:
This project site is located within a "Zone 3 Area" as per the 2000 edition of the Uniform Building Code. All
building structures on this project should be designed as per the U.B.C. requirement for such a seismic
classification. The material on site has a soil profile SD with 600 ft./sec. S Vs >_ 1,200 ft./sec shear wave
velocity.
Slope Stability:
The slope is classified by the Coastal Zone Atlas for Mason County as "intermediate". Intermediate slopes
consist of areas considered to have less than critical geologic, groundwater, or wave erosion factors, but
which may become critical, and therefore subject to landsliding if disturbed. A common example is a
stabilized and vegetated sand and gravel talus slope, the surface of which is sloping at the angle of repose or
less (less than approximately 70 percent (35 degrees). Intermediate slope stability includes heavily vegetated,
very steep slopes underlain by sand, gravel, till and/or bedrock. Erosion at the toe of slope is absent except
when the state pulls the ditch along SR-106.
Slopes may fail by a number of mechanisms, depending on the nature of the soil involved and the arrangement
of natural earth materials at the site in question. Slope failures occur because forces tending to cause
10011 Blomberg Street SW,Olympia,WA 98512
Phone#: (206)754-4612 Fax#: (206)754-4848
GEOTECHNICAL
TESTING LABORATORY
instability exceed those tending to resist it. Generally, the driving forces are represented by a component of
soil weight downslope and the resisting forces are represented by the soil strength acting in the opposite
direction. The factor of safety (FS) of the slope is expressed as the ratio of the resisting forces or "moments"
to the driving forces or "moments". When the FS is 1 or less, the slope must fail. When the FS exceeds 1,
the slope is theoretically stable.
When estimating the FS for the slopes encountered, we considered 4 types of information:
1. the soil and water profiles
2. the kinematics of the potential slope failure
3. the strength and weight of the soil
4. the proposed slope geometry
We have calculated "worst case" scenarios and have found that the on-site soil can support slopes with the
buildings at there proposed locations. (see site plan)
Please bear in mind that any slope exposed to the elements will weather and deteriorate until vegetation
returns to the surface of the slope. Slopes in excess of one ft. vertical to one ft. horizontal should be
supported by an engineered retaining structure. If no retaining structures are used, sloughing of the slope
along the driveway approach can be expected.
Impact Analysis:
We do not anticipate that the proposed project will have any off-site impact. On-site care should be taken
during construction to make sure that runoff caused by wet weather be fenced to protect drainage ways from
siltation.
Liquifaction Potential:
The materials on site are of a cohesionless nature, consisting of semi-cemented materials. The potential for
liquefaction of the soils in this area is negligible and not expected to present any problems for the project.
Hillside Foundations (Daylight Dimension):
Structures built on sloping sites offer a number of potential problems. Fig. 1 illustrates a basic consideration
for what is called the "daylight' dimension, which is the horizontal distance from the bottom of the footing to
the adjacent ground surface. Many building codes require a minimum distance for this dimension in order to
assure some safety against the pushing out of the footing in the downslope direction.
Logically, the limit for this distance depends on the type of soil and the angle of the slope of the ground
surface. For low slope angles, a reasonable daylight dimension is assured simply because of the usual
10011 Blomberg Street SW,Olympia,WA 98512
Phone#: (206)754-4612' Fax#: (206)754-4848
GEOTECHNICAL
TESTING LABORATORY
requirements for the minimum depth of the bottom of the footing below the surface in a vertical direction. As
the slope increases, the daylight dimension is less assured and should be limited to some minimum distance. A
depth of 32 inches will provide the critical exposure necessary.
A common problem with hillside construction is that shown in Fig. 2, where recontouring of the construction
site results in a portion of the building being placed on some significant depth of fill. If possible, all of the
footings should be carried down to a depth below the fill. If structural fill is used and placed with reasonable
compaction, it may be possible to rest the footings in the fill, provided that this is done only with inspection
and supervision by a soils testing firm.
General Comments:
When the plans and specifications are complete, or if significant changes are made in the character or location
of the proposed structure, a consultation should be arranged to review them regarding the prevailing soil
conditions. Then it may be necessary to submit supplementary recommendations. It is recommended that the
service of a qualified soils consulting firm be engaged to test and evaluate the soils in the footing excavations
before concreting to determine that the soils meet the compaction requirements. Monitoring and testing
should also be performed to verify that suitable materials are used for structural fills and that they are properly
placed and compacted.
