1.0 INTRODUCTION
Envirotech Engineering (Envirotech) has completed a geotechnical investigation for a single
family residential property located on the 12000 block of North Shore Road, identified as parcel
number 32234 50 00049, Mason County, Washington (Project). This parcel includes Lot 49, Lot
50 and Lot 51. 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, conclusions/ recommendations for foundation, settlement, earthwork construction, lateral
earth pressures, slope stability, erosion control, drainage, vegetation, and seismic considerations
in the Engineering Conclusions and Recommendations Section.
An initial geotechnical evaluation of the Project was conducted by Envirotech with the property
owner's representative on September 25, 2009. It was determined that a geotechnical report was
required in order to support the planned development. 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 proponent of the property during the
geotechnical investigation. Other information, such as site observations and assumed parameters
typical of this type of development were provided by Evirotech during the preparation of this
report.
The property currently consists of a cleared building pad, driveway, and a small mobile home on
Lot 49 and Lot 50. A small shed structure is currently on Lot 51. The planned development
consists of a 1-story pole building in order to protect the mobile home on Lot 50. Foundation
construction is expected to consist of isolated footings per Mason County prescriptive pole
building requirements. Approximate building footprint and other proposed features with relation
to existing site conditions are illustrated on the Site Map provided in Appendix A of this report.
1.2 Purpose of Investigation and Scope of Work
The purpose of this geotechnical investigation is to assess geological hazards, and evaluate the
Project in order to provide geotechnical recommendations that should be implemented during
development. The investigation included characterizing the general Project surface and
subsurface conditions, and evaluating the suitability of the soils to support the planned site
activities.
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
representative;
• Conduct a site visit to document the site conditions that may influence the construction
and performance of the proposed improvements;
• Define general subsurface conditions of the site by observing subsoils within test pits

2.0 SURFACE CONDITIONS
Information pertaining to the existing surface conditions for the Project was gathered on
September 25, 2009 by Michael Staten, geotechnical engineer with Envirotech. During the site
visit, the type of geotechnical investigation was assessed, and site features were documented that
may influence construction and slope stability. 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 property is accessed from North Shore Road, an existing paved roadway along Hood Canal.
The Project is currently partially developed land as previously mentioned. Beyond the property,
rural residential development exists. Vegetation on and near the Project consists primarily of
older firs, madronas, and other trees and shrubbery common to this area of the Pacific Northwest.
An aerial photo of the Project and immediate vicinity is provided on the following page.
2.2 Topography
The topographic information provided in this section was extrapolated from a public lidar source,
and incorporated observations and field measurements. Where necessary, slope verification
included measuring slope lengths and inclinations with a cloth tape and sextant. 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.
Descending grades, adjacent to the south side of the existing building pad, average 43% with a
vertical relief of over 70 feet. Isolated areas along the hillside, such as driveway cuts have slopes
greater than 60%.
2.2.1 Upslope Geomorphology and Water Bodies
Ascending grades are generally located to the north of the planned development. This
slope has immediate grades averaging 37% with a vertical relief of about 100 feet.
Isolated areas of about 52%were observed on the ascending slope. Immediate slope cuts
from the building pad have nearly vertical grades between 5 feet and 14 feet. The upland
area of the property is situated on a hillside. Additional geomorphology that is pertinent
to both upslope and downslope areas are provided in the Subsurface Investigation Section
of this report.
Wheeler Lake is upslope from the property. However, this lake does not significantly
influence the Project. This conclusion is based on topography and location of the water
body.
2.3 Surface Drainage
Stormwater runoff originating upslope from the anticipated development is expected to be
minimal to moderate. Although some indications of drainage was observed on the driveway,
significant scour,erosion or other indications of past drainage problems were not observed within

the immediate vicinity of the planned development.
2.4 Slope and Erosion Observations
The slope grades 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, hummocky ground or 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.
Although slightly leaning/ bowing trees, and some tension cracks were observed on the
embankment side of the existing driveway in one location, significant mass wasting on the
property or within the general vicinity of the Project were not observed. Indications of past
landslides, current unstable slopes, deep-seated slope problems, or surficial slope failures were
not observed during the site visit.

3.0 SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION
Information on subsurface conditions pertaining to the Project was primarily gathered on October
5, 2009 by Michael Staten, geotechnical engineer with Envirotech. Specific information on field
methods, sampling, field testing,general geologic conditions, specific 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-
section(s),test pit log(s),and water well report(s).Applicable test pit 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
existing bank cut slopes of up to 14 feet within the vicinity of the property. Information on
subsurface conditions also included reviewing geological maps representing the general vicinity
of the project,and water well reports originating from nearby properties.
One bulk sample was collected at the Project site at approximately 40 inches below the existing
ground surface near the anticipated building location. The soil sample collected was secured and
transported for possible laboratory testing.
Envirotech measured the relative density of the near-surface in-situ soils by gauging the
resistance of hand tools.Within testing locations, field testing results generally indicated medium
dense soils in the upper 36 inches,and dense soils from 36 inches to the depth of terminous.
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, Q8. 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 "Interactive Geologic Map, 1:100,000 Quadrangle," as depicted by the
Department of Natural Resources,this Project consists mostly of advance outwash, Q.B. Advance
Outwash is usually described as"glaciological sand and gravel and latchstring clay, silt,and sand
deposited during the advance of glaciers; sandy units commonly thick, well sorted, and fine
grained, with mterlayered coarser sand, gravel, and cobbles and silt rip-up lag deposits at their
base;may contain no glacial sediments;generally overlain by till."
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 primarily described utilizing the Unified Soil Classification
System(USCS)and the Soil Conservation Service(SCS)descriptions.
The Project is composed of native soils with indications fill. The fill is primarily located on Lot
49 at the driveway entrance to the building pad, and side-cast along portions of the driveway. Fill
material is not expected to influence this Project. For engineering purposes, the soils consist of
distinguishable layers,as presented below.
Soils within the upper 14 feet of natural ground were observed to be low moisture. light brown
silty sand(SM)with some gravel, silty gravel with sand(GM), and poorly-graded sand (SP)with
some gravel. Pockets of gravel were also observed.
Soils below the upper 14 feet layer are expected to be similar as the overlying layer, and
extending to variable depths. Very dense glacial till is expected to be anywhere from 15 feet to 50
feet below the ground surface on this property.
The relative densities of the soil are provided above in Section 3.1. Expanded and specific
subsurface descriptions, other than what is provided in this section, are provided in the soil logs
located in Appendix C of this report.
According to the "Soil Survey of Mason County," by the United States Department of
Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, the site soils are described as Everett Gravelly Sandy
Loam, Ek, with 15% - 30% slopes. However, slopes exceeding 30% were observed on the
property. The soil designations are depicted in the aerial photograph in the Surface Conditions
Section(Section 2.0)of this report.
3.3.1 Groundwater
From the water well report(s)and knowledge of the general area,permanent groundwater
is at least 100 feet directly below the property at the building pad location. Perched
groundwater at shallow depths was not observed on-site, nor indicated on the well
reports.
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 at all observed soil profiles. Visual classifications were performed in accordance with the
American Standards for Testing and Materials(ASTM D2488).
The general results from the visual classification are presented above in the Subsurface
Conditions Section. Specifically,soils within the upper 10 feet in one testing location consisted of
approximately 10% gravel, 70% sand-sized soils, and 20% silt with low plasticity. Minor
variations observed during the visual classification of particle size content (i.e. gravel, sand,
fines), or isolated pockets within the soil stratification were insignificant in relation to the overall
engineering properties of the soil.

4.0 ENGINEERING ANALYSES, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The following sections present engineering analysis and recommendations for the proposed
improvements of the Project. 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/
geologic 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-story
pole building. 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 based on observed field conditions and soil testing for
this Project. After deriving conservative relative densities, unit weights and angles of internal
friction of the in-situ soils, the Terzhagi ultimate bearing capacity equation was utilized for
determining foundation width and depth.
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 low to moderate frost susceptible characteristics and should be used only to the extents
provided in this report.
4.1.1 Bearing Capacity
Existing in-situ soils for this Project indicates that the structure can be established on
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.
For a bearing capacity requirement of no more than 1500 psf, a minimum footing
diameter of 2 feet shall be placed at a minimum of 4 feet below the existing ground
surface. Deeper foundations are required if structural requirements prevail. Foundation
recommendations are made available based on adherence to the remaining
recommendations that are provided in this report. Alterations to the aforementioned
foundation recommendations may be completed upon a site inspection by a geotechnical
engineer after the foundation excavation is completed.
4.1.2 Settlement
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.
4.2 Lateral Earth Pressures
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. Significant retaining structures are
not anticipated for this Project. If retaining walls are later planned for this Project, prescriptive
requirements from the County should be adhered to. For retaining structures with a height
exceeding County prescriptive requirements, additional design parameters must be accounted for
in the retaining wall analysis, and recommendations should only be provided by a qualified
engineer after the type of backfill is acquired, 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
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 Fill
For engineered fill or disturbed native soils that will be utilized as fill material directly
beneath foundations, observation and/ or geotechnical testing is required prior to
foundation construction. The following placement and compaction requirements are
necessary.

Fax: 360-275-4789 October 7,2009
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.

UNDISTURBED SUBGRA1lE
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 the following gradation:

3" 60— 100
No. 4 20—60
No. 200 0 - 8
Table 1
Partical Size Distribution of Engineered Fill
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
during construction in order to achieve acceptable compaction and inter-lift bonding.
Temporary earth cuts and temporary fill slopes exceeding 4 feet in height should be
limited to a slope of 1:1 (horizontal:vertical). Utility trenches or other confined
excavations exceeding 4 feet should conform to OSHA safety regulations.
4.3.3 Retaining Wall Backfill
As previously mentioned, significant retaining structures are not anticipated for this
Project. However, if used, native soils may be used as retaining wall backfill for this
Project. Backfill may also consist of engineered fill or borrow materials approved by a
geotechnical engineer. Placement, compaction and extents of retaining wall backfill
should also be specified by a geotechnical engineer or qualified professional.
4.3.4 Wet Weather Considerations
Although the subsoil characteristics do not pose a great risk in regards to saturation,
additional provisions may be required during prolonged wet weather. Every precaution

74 NE Hurd Road page 9 NE North Shore Road
Belfair,Washington 98528 Parcel 32234 50 00049
Ph. 360-275-9374 Mason County, Washington
Fax: 360-275-4789 October 7,2009
should be made in order to prevent free moisture from saturating and ponding within
excavations. If the bottom of excavations used for footing placement changes from a
moist and dense characteristic as presented in this report to loose, saturated conditions,
then these soils become unsuitable for foundation bearing material. If this situation
occurs, a geotechnical engineer should be notified, or these soils should be completely
removed and replaced with suitable compacted material as presented above.
4.3.5 Building Pads
Building pad fill is not recommended for this Project. Additional geotechnical design
considerations, such as location, depth, and amount of fill will be required if building pad
fill is necessary.
4.4 Slope Stability
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
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 for the current conditions. 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. If this
situation does arise, the slope shall be inspected by a geotechnical engineer. Subsequently,
maintenance may be required in order to prevent the possibility of further surficial or deep seated
slope movements that may be damaging to life and property.
According to the Coastal Zone Atlas of Mason County, Washington, the Project is within and
near terrain labeled `Stable' and `Unstable' regarding potential landslide activity. Recent
landslides are designated near the property, but consist of different circumstances when compared
to this Project. Stable slopes are generally not prone to landslides due to small grades and
accommodating geology. Unstable slopes are considered unstable because of geology,
groundwater, slope and/ or erosional factors. They include areas of landslides and talus too
obscure to be individually mapped. A site specific analyses and recommendations concerning the
slopes are presented herein. A Stability Map from the Coastal Zone Atlas for the general area of
this Project is provided below.

4.4.1 Slope Stability Assessment and Analysis
The Simplified Bishop Method, utilizing `STABLE' software, was used to analyze the
static stability of the site slopes. 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. 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, internal friction 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:
Upper Advance Outwash
• Soil unit weight: 138 pcf
• Angle of internal friction: 36 degrees
• Cohesion: 0 psf
Lower Glacial Till
• Soil unit weight: 140 pcf
• Angle of internal friction: 40 degrees
• Cohesion: 400 psf
Based on the slope stability analysis, a minimum factor of safety was determined to be
1.45 relative to static slope failures, and 0.96 with relation to seismic conditions. These
factor of safeties were primarily limited to the face of over-steepened slopes, and do not
reflect conditions where development is expected to occur. For this Project, at the
location of the proposed development, minimum factor of safeties for static and dynamic
conditions were estimated to be over 1.5 and 1.1, respectively. See the slope stability
information in Appendix D for a depiction of input parameters and example of outputs.
Unstable slopes, as delineated by the Departments of Ecology and Natural Resources, are
generally depicted for this region. Landslides in this area are mostly due to convergences
that experience significant surface and groundwater. Based on the lack of significant
water on this property, and results of the aforesaid slope stability analysis, it is our
opinion that the proposed development should occur in accordance with this geotechnical
report.
4.4.2 Building and Footing Setbacks
Because of the relatively small cut behind most of the planned development, and nature
of both the soils and type of development, building setbacks are not required from the
ascending slope.
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 15 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.

The required setbacks may be reduced, if necessary. The setback may be decreased by
extending the foundation an additional 1.5 feet in depth below the ground surface for
every 5 feet of setback reduction. Other mitigation techniques may be utilized in order to
reduce the required setback, and subsequently would require additional geotechnical
studies.
4.5 Erosion
Based on the USCS description of the Project soils,the surface soils are considered moderately
erodible. Temporary and/ or permanent erosion control measures may be required for site
development. Extents of temporary erosion control will mostly depend on the timeliness of
construction,moisture content of the soil,and amount of rainfall during construction. Soil erosion
typical to the existing site conditions and planned disturbance of the Project include wind-borne
silts during dry weather, and sediment transport during prolonged wet weather. Sediment
transport could be from stormwater runoff or tracking off-site with construction equipment.
Erosion control measures may need to be employed if excessive erosion occurs or required by the
County or other prevailing agencies.
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. Additional erosion control information and specifications
may be found in the appropriate "Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington,"
prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology Water Quality Program.
4.5.1 Temporary Erosion Control
Erosion control during construction should include minimizing the removal of vegetation
to the least extent possible. If necessary, erosion control measures during construction
may include stockpiling cleared vegetation,silt fencing,intercepting swales,berms, straw
bales, plastic cover or other standard controls. If necessary, 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

Fax:360-275-4789 October 7,2009
notes regarding selected erosion control measures. The Site Map in Appendix A depicts
the recommended locations for erosion control facilities to be installed,if necessary.
4.5.2 Permanent Erosion Control
Permanent erosion control 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 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.
The following Surface and Subsurface Drainage Section may have additional
recommendations with relation to permanent erosion for surface drainage features.
4.6 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.
From a geotechnical perspective, both perimeter footing drains and roof drains are optional for
the single family residence. If roof drains are not utilized, splash blocks should be placed at all
downspouts. If storm water is collected from roof drains,the outlet shall be located either beyond
toes of any slope exceeding 40%, or above ground outlets beyond the recommended building
setbacks or vegetation buffers that are provided in this report.
4.6.1 Septic Drainfield Impacts
On-site septic drainfields are not planned for this Project.
4.7 Vegetation Buffer and 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.
Vegetation shall not be removed from the face of the steep slope. 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.

Ph 360-275-9374 Mason County,Washington
Fax: 360-275-4789 October 7,2009
Any disturbed soil shall be graded and re-compacted in order to restore the terrain similar to pre-
existing conditions and drainage patterns. See the Geologic Map in Appendix B of this report for
a depiction of the vegetation buffer.
4.8 On-Site and Off-Site Impacts
From a geotechnical position, it is Envirotech's opinion that the subject property and adjacent
properties to the proposed development should not be significantly impacted if all
recommendations in this report are followed. This is based on the expected site development,
existing topography, land cover,and the recommendations presented in this report.
4.9 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 the distal end is approximately 4 miles to the
northeast of this Project. This information is based on the USGS Quaternary Fault and Fold
Database for the United States.
4.9.1 Liquefaction
The potential for liquefaction is believed to be low for this Project. This is based, in part,
on the 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 (i.e.
gravel, sand, silt). 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.

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.
This report presents geotechnical design guidelines, and is intended only for the owner, or
owners' representative, and location of project described herein. This report should not be used to
dictate construction procedures or relieve the contractor of his responsibility.
Any and all content of this geotechnical report is only valid in conjunction with the compliance of
all recommendations provided in this report. Semantics throughout this report such as `shall,'
`should' and `recommended' imply that the correlating design and/or specifications must be
adhered to in order to protect life and property. Semantics such as `suggested' or `optional' refer
that the associated design or specification may or may not be performed. The recommendations
provided in this report are valid for the proposed development at the issuance date of this report.
Changes to the site other than the expected development, changes to ordinances or regulatory
codes, or broadening of accepted geotechnical standards may affect the conclusions and
recommendations of this report.
The services described in this report were prepared under the responsible charge of Michael
Staten, a professional engineer with Envirotech. Michael Staten has appropriate education and
experience in the field of geotechnical engineering in order to assess landslide hazards,

Proiect Description: POLE BARN CONSTRUCTION
The Geotechnical Report for STEVE ANDREWS has been received and reviewed by the Planning
Department. The report was prepared by Michael Staten dated 10/7/2009.
Based on the certification provided by the licensed engineer/geologist, the referenced
Geotechnical Report was prepared in general accordance with the requirements in the Mason
County Resource Ordinance, Landslide Hazard Areas 17.01.100.E.5. Mason County considers
the review valid until such time as scope of project, site conditions, and/or regulations change.
Should the scope of work, site conditions, and/or regulations change after the original review, then
an addendum from the original author of the report may be required to address these changes. I
The report would only be re-reviewed if a permit for development were submitted after these
changes occur. Mason County does not certify the quality of the work done in this Geotechnical
Report.
Please contact me at (360) 427-9670, ext. 365 if you have questions.
