1 Introduction
This report presents the results of our geotechnical evaluation for the proposed Town of Brule
Public Works Garage and Administration Office on Old Highway 2 in Brule, Wisconsin.
1.1 Scope of Services
Our scope of services for this geotechnical evaluation as outlined in our proposal 2 5G2116
dated October 24, 2025 included:
• Performing an exploration program consisting of eight (8) Standard Penetration Test
(SPT) borings: four (4) to depths of 25 feet or refusal within the building footprint, three
(3) to depths of 15 feet or refusal within the stormwater pond footprint, and one (1) to a
depth of 10 feet or refusal within the parking area footprint.
• Performing laboratory tests and observations of soil samples to evaluate pertinent
engineering properties of materials encountered.
• Preparing a report containing a description of the drilling program, a description of the
geology and subsurface conditions encountered, groundwater conditions, boring logs
with a boring location sketch, results of laboratory testing, and recommendations for
site preparation, foundation design, pavement design, and construction.
Twin Ports Testing II, Inc. (TPT) prepared this report for design purposes only. It may not have
sufficient subsurface information to prepare an accurate construction bid. We recommend that
contractors preparing bids or proposals for this project be provided with a complete copy of
this report as a supplement to the plans and specifications.
1.2 Proposed Project
We understand tha t DSGW Architects is in the design process to construct a public works
garage and administration office in Brule, Wisconsin. Addition al site work includes concrete
sidewalks, paved parking and drive areas, and a stormwater pond. The building construction
type and building loads are not known at the time of this report ; though we assume column
loads less than 50 kips and wall loads less than five kips per lineal foot.
Changes in the nature, design, and location of all or parts of this project may occur. The
conclusions and recommendations contained in this report shall not be considered applicable
to changes unless they are reviewed by the geotechnical engineer of record. We will then make
necessary changes or modifications to this report in writing only.
25G2116 2
1.2.1 Reference Information
We referenced the following documents as part of this project:
• Wisconsin Geological and N atural History Survey titled, “ Quaternary Geology of
Wisconsin,” dated 2025, prepared by J. Elmo Rawling III, Eric C. Carson, John W. Attig,
David M. Mickelson, William N. Mode, Mark D. Johnson, and Kent M. Syverson.
• Web Soil Survey website, prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture and
the Natural Resources Conservation Service. http://websoilsurvey.nrcs.usda.gov.
• Google Earth™
2 Site Conditions
2.1 Site Location and Existing Conditions
The proposed site is located around 500 feet northeast of the intersection of Old Highway 2 and
Hill Drive in Brule, Wisconsin as shown in Figure 1 below. The current building footprint and
parking area were cleared and graded. The surrounding areas and stormwater pond area
currently consist of wooded areas.

2.1.1 Review of Historical Images
As part of our evaluation we looked at historical images of the site using Google Earth. Based
upon available imagery, this site has changed little since the first available image dated 1992.
2.2 Topography
This site has been previously graded and is relatively flat. Elevations between the boring
locations varied by less than 3 ½ feet.
2.3 Geologic Setting
Through an understanding of the geologic history and processes of an area, we are better able
to define and understand the range of geotechnical properties observed in the geological
materials encountered at the site. Knowledge of the anticipated subsurface profile at the site is
important for interpreting and correlating the borings from the field exploration program.
Based upon information from geologic survey reports, the geology local to the site generally
consists of glacial sediment of the Copper Falls Formation an d lake sediment. Glacial sediment
is defined as reddish-brown to brown sandy till and similar sediment deposited by the Langlade,
Wisconsin Valley, Chippewa, Superior, and Ontonagon lobes late in the Wisconsin Glaciation.
Areas of hummocky topography with typically 10 m of relief. Contains areas of sandy and
gravelly outwash and sandy and silty lake sediment. Ice -walled lake plains are common. Lake
sediment is defined as s tratified and well -sorted sandy gravel, sand, silt, and clay deposited
along shorelines of the Great Lakes and ice -marginal lakes; includes dunes, wave -cut benches,
sand bars, spits, and offshore plains. (Rawling III, Carson, Attig, Mickelson, Mode, Johnson, and
Syverson)
2.3.1 Results of Web Soil Survey
As part of our evaluation for this project we reviewed the Web Soil Survey website. The Web
Soil Survey consists of publically available soils information prepared by the United States
Department of Agriculture and the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Our review
of this information identified one primary soil unit throughout the project area consisting of
“Rubicon sand”. In general, the Web Soil Survey suggests these soils consist of outwash sands.
In general, soil units in the Web Soil Survey correspond well with the results of our field
investigation.
2.3.2 Geologic Hazards
The potential for most geologic hazards is generally low for this site. A hazard potential
summary is shown in Table 1.

3 Field Procedures
Field procedures for this project included performing Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings at
eight (8) locations; four (4) SPT borings within the proposed building footprint to depths of 20
feet, three (3) SPT borings within the proposed stormwater ponds to depths of 15 feet, and one
(1) SPT boring within the proposed parking areas to a depth of 10 feet.
SPT borings were performed with a Geoprobe Systems 7822DT track mounted drill rig using
hollow stem auger drilling methods. Drilling procedur es were performed on November 13,
2025 and November 14, 2025.
3.1 Boring Locations and Elevations
Boring locations were staked in the field by Pine Ridge Surveying prior to our field crews’ arrival
on site . The a pproximate boring locations are shown on the Boring Location Map in the
Appendix. Boring elevations were recorded in the field by TPT personnel using a surveying level
and rod. The base of the west side entrance gate was used as a benchmark and was assigned an
elevation of 100 feet. Boring elevations can be found on the boring logs included in the
Appendix.
3.2 Sampling
3.2.1 Standard Penetration Test (SPT) Borings
At selected depth intervals in the borings, Standard Penetration Tests (SPT) were conducted in
substantial compliance with ASTM Method D1586. The SPT “N” values shown on the boring logs
25G2116 5
are the number of blows required to drive a standard split barrel sampler 12 inches (two six -
inch increments) into undisturbed soil using a 140 pound drive hammer dropped 30 inc hes per
blow after an initial “set” of six inches. The “N” value is an index of the relative density of
cohesion-less soils and consistency of cohesive soils . The values shown on the boring logs are
field values and have not been corrected for hammer energy, surcharge, etc. Partially disturbed
samples obtained from the SPT borings were sealed in glass jars and returned to the laboratory
for testing.
3.3 Boring Logs
A field boring log was prepared for each boring by our field supervisor. These logs contain
factual information and field interpretation of the soil conditions observed, as described in
substantial compliance with ASTM D420 and D2488.
Final boring logs are included in the Appendix. The final logs represent our interpretation of the
contents of the field logs after laboratory observations b y a geotechnical engineer and
laboratory tests of the field samples were complete. Soils are described in this report according
to the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), as outlined in the Boring Log Notes and Soil
Classification Data in the Appendix.
3.4 Water Level Readings
Water level readings were observed in the borings at the times and under the conditions stated
on the boring logs. We have reviewed the data and have reported interpretations in the text of
this report. However, it must be noted that fluctuations in the level of ground water may occur
because of variations in rainfall, temperature, subsurface materials and other conditions or
factors different from those observed at the time of our measurements. It should be noted that
such conditions are subject to change.
4 Subsurface Conditions
4.1 Soil
The subsurface soils encountered at this site generally consisted of four stratigraphic units: (1 )
Topsoil, (2) Silty Sand, (3) Poorly Graded Sand with Silt , (4) Silt with Sand . These units are
described below.
4.1.1 Topsoil
Topsoil was encountered in all boring locations from the surface to depths up to six inches.
Topsoil generally consisted of silty sand, contained trace roots and fibers , was fine to medium
grained, dark brown, and moist.
25G2116 6
4.1.2 Silty Sand
Silty sand soils were encountered below the topsoil in all boring locations at varying depths and
thicknesses. Silty sand soils generally contained trace gravel, were fine to medium grained,
brown to light brown, and moist. Trace organics, roots, and fibers were encountered to depths
up to 6 feet.
SPT N -values suggest that silty sand soils generally ranged from loose to medium dense in
relative density.
4.1.3 Poorly Graded Sand with Silt
Poorly graded sand with silt soils were encountered below the topsoil in all boring locations
excluding B -6 and B -7, at varying depths and thicknesses . Poorly graded sand with silt soils
generally contained trace gravel, were fine to medium grained, brown to light brown , and
moist. Trace organics, roots, and fibers were encountered to depths up to 6 feet.
SPT N -values suggest that poorly graded sand soils generally ranged from loose to medium
dense in relative density.
4.1.4 Silt with Sand
Silt with sand soils were encountered below the silty sand soils in Borings B-3 and B-4 at varying
depths and thicknesses. Silt with sand soils were brown and moist.
SPT N-values suggest that silt with sand soils generally ranged from loose to medium dense in
relative density.
4.2 Groundwater
Groundwater was not encountered within our borings during field procedures at this site.
Perched water may be encountered during excavation activities . A detailed evaluation of
groundwater levels at the site would require long term monitoring of piezometers and was not
included in the scope of this evaluation.
5 Laboratory Testing
Results of the field testing and observed subsurface conditions were evaluated to develop a
laboratory testing program. Laboratory testing of collected samples included visual
classification by a geotechnical engineer , water content testing , and sieve analysis. Results of
laboratory tests are shown on the boring logs in the Appendix.
25G2116 7
5.1 Water Content
Laboratory water content testing was performed in accordance with ASTM D2216 on select
collected samples from the field exploration. Values of water content are shown on the Boring
Logs in the Appendix.
5.2 Sieve Analysis
Sieve analysis testing of material passing the #200 sieve was performed in general accordance
with ASTM D114 0 procedures on two individual split spoon samples . Test results are shown in
Boring Logs in the Appendix.

6 Analyses and Design Recommendations
6.1 Design Considerations
6.1.1 Topsoil and Soils Containing Organics
Topsoil and soils containing organics, roots and fibers were encountered at all boring locations
at this site to depths up to six feet. It is possible that these soils will cause settlement beyond
the allowable limits of the structures when loaded.
6.2 Site Preparation
Topsoils and soils containing organics, roots, and fibers were encountered at all boring locations
at this site from the surface to depths up to six feet. We recommend removing all topsoil, fill
soils, and soils containing organics (>5%) encountered within the footprint and influence area
(1H:1V out from the outside edge of slabs/footings of the proposed structure) and replacing
with compacted engineered fill to reach design elevations. We also recommend removing all fill
and organic soils within existing utility trenches, if encountered, during excavation. Excavations
of six feet or greater should be anticipated.
6.3 Shallow Foundations
It is our understanding that frost depth footings are the preferred foundation option for this
project. Both frost depth footings and frost protected shallow foundations are feasible options
at this site. Recommendations for both systems are provided below.
25G2116 8
6.3.1 Frost Depth Footings
Frost depth footings bearing on native sand soils or compacted engineered fill over native sand
soils are a feasible option for this site. We recommend that footings and column pads for
unheated structures, as well as isolated exterior footings, bear a minimum of six feet below
grade. Footings for heated structures should bear a minimum of five feet below grade to
provide frost protection. Interior footings may bear directly below slabs.
6.3.2 Frost Protected Shallow Foundations
Frost protected shallow foundations are also a feasible option for this site. We recommend
using design methods outlined in ASCE 32 -01 “Design and Construction of Frost -Protected
Shallow Foundations.” Recommended R -Values for insulation assuming a design Air Freezing
Index of 3,000º F days are provided for unheated structures as shown in Table 3 below.
Table 3: Minimum Insulation R-Values
Structure Type Vertical Insulation R-Value Horizontal R-Value,
Along Walls
Horizontal R-Value,
At Corners
Heated Structure 7.8 6.5 8.6
Unheated Structure -* 18.2 18.2
* = No vertical insulation required for unheated structures. Assumes a continuous layer of insulation beneath the
footing and extending outward.
For heated structures, insulation should extend out at least 24 inches horizontally within 40
inches of outside corners and at least 12 inches horizontally away from outside corners. Vertical
insulation should be extended from the sill plate to the bottom of the footing to avoid cold
bridging. Insulation above grade should be provided with UV protection.
For unheated structures, insulation should extend horizontally a minimum of 79 inches outside
of foundations both along walls and at corners.
If non -frost susceptible fill soil extends to a depth of six feet or more beneath shallow
foundations, insulation is not required to provide frost protection. Insulation may be required
to meet energy code requirements. We recomme nd a minimum footing depth of 18 inches for
frost protected shallow foundations.
6.3.3 Net Allowable Bearing Stress
Results of the field and laboratory testing program were used to evaluate the net allowable
bearing stress for shallow foundations. In our opinion, a net allowable bearing stress (with a
minimum factor of safety of at least 3.0) of 3,000 psf (pounds per square foot) may be used to
design footings placed on native soils or engineered fill over native soils.
6.3.4 Settlement Estimate
For foundations designed according to the net allowable bearing stress es outlined above , we
estimate total settlement of less than one inch and differential settlements of less than ½ inch.
25G2116 9
6.3.5 Inclined and Eccentric Loads
Loading a footing eccentrically will reduce the bearing capacity of the footing. Footings should
be designed so that the resultant load is applied to the middle third (kern) of the footing. This
will allow the contact stress to remain greater than zero over the area of the footing.
6.3.6 Lateral Resistance
A coefficient of friction of 0.4 between compacted engineered fill and concrete footings may be
used for this project. Additional lateral resistance will also be provided by the passive earth
pressure between the side of the footing and adjacent soil. Lateral earth pressure parameters
for soil types encountered at this site are shown in Table 4.
6.3.7 Uplift
For a conservative approach, uplift of a footing can be resisted by the weight of the footing plus
the effective weight of the soil above the footing. If necessary, additional uplift resistance can
also be provided by the effective weight of the wedge of soil defined by a line extending up and
out from the edge of the footing at an angle of 30 degrees from vertical. Estimated unit weights
of soils types encountered at this site are shown in Table 4.
6.4 Slabs
6.4.1 Heated Structures
Interior slabs for heated structures can be supported on a layer of granular fill material placed
over engineered backfill. We recommend that a minimum of six inches of well-graded granular
material (classifying as SP in the Unified Soil Classification System) be used beneath slabs.
6.4.2 Unheated/Exterior Slabs
Unheated slabs may be constructed as part of this project. Soils encountered near the surface
at the site are considered frost susceptible. If provided a water source and freezing
temperatures, several inches or more of frost heave can occur. We recommend that slabs be
provided with frost protection as outlined in Section 6.3.2.
Heave can also be prevented by removing frost susceptible soils down to a depth of six feet
below slabs and replacing with non -frost susceptible soils having less than 5% passing the No.
200 sieve or by supporting slabs on frost depth foundations and leaving a void space for frost
heave.
6.4.3 Modulus of Subgrade Reaction
Slabs are anticipated to bear on native sand soils or compacted engineered fill over native sand
soils. The anticipated slab subgrade is a minimum of six inches of granular fill over native sand
soils. It is our opinion that a modulus of subgrade reaction, k, of 150 pounds per square inch per
inch of deflection (pci) may be used to design slabs.
25G2116 10
6.5 Retaining Structures and Lateral Earth Pressures
Retaining walls or below -grade structures should be designed to resist lateral earth pressures.
Recommendations are provided below.
6.5.1 Lateral Earth Pressure Parameters
Lateral earth pressures are an important part of designing underground structures including
retaining walls. Free standing walls where some displacement at the top of the wall is
acceptable can be designed to resist active lateral earth pressures. If no displacement at the top
of the wall is acceptable, such as basement walls, walls should be designed to resist at -rest
lateral earth pressures. Anchored walls should be designed to resist passive lateral earth
pressures. Estimated lateral earth pressure coefficients are shown in Table 4 below. Design of
retaining structures should account for any surcharge loads at the surface.
The estimated soil friction angles and coefficients of lateral earth pressure provided in Table 4
are for sustained loads (loads defined as permanent or semi -permanent such as dead weight).
Sustained loads allow time for excess soil pore water pressures to dissipate, resulting in drained
soil conditions. An effective stress analysis is used for sustained loads.
The soil parameters shown in Table 4 are estimates based on data from the borings and past
experiences near the site. A more extensive laboratory testi ng program would be required to
more accurately determine soil strength parameters.

*Soil parameters for engineered fill are conservative estimates. Additional laboratory testing would be
required to more accurately estimate soil parameters once an engineered fill source has been selected.
6.5.2 Drainage
If water percolates down alongside the wall it may become perched within the wall backfill.
Collecting run-off and discharging it well away from the foundation(s) and sloping the surface
down and away from the retaining wall are two common methods of reducing infiltration and
percolation. To collect surface water infiltration within the wall backfill we recommend
installing a perimeter foundation drain system. The drain system should consist of perforated
25G2116 11
pipe embedded in gravel and placed at an invert within two inches of the bottom -of-footing
elevation. A geotextile filter fabric should encase the pipe and gravel. The drain system should
be routed to a storm sewer, sump pump, low area on the site, or other suitable drainage
channels. Another suitable drainage system for non -basement retaining includes placing a layer
of free-draining granular material behind the walls, connected to “weep holes” in the face of
the walls.
6.6 Slopes and Drainage
We recommend sloping backfill next to the proposed structures away from the foundation at a
minimum slope of 10H:1V to promote drainage away from the structure. It is our understanding
that stormwater collection ponds or infiltration basins are not part of this project. Therefore,
we have not provided recommendations for soil infiltration rates. We can provide this
information upon request if necessary.
6.7 Backfill and Fill
A wide variety of materials can be considered as suitable for engineered backfill and fill. The
choice of materials is a function of structural requirements, water table conditions, seasonal
construction constraints, placement and compaction methods, and other site or project specific
needs. Soils which classify as SP or SP-SM in the Unified Soil Classification System (ASTM D2487)
are usually the most available suitable soils for engineered backfill and fill.
6.7.1 Recommended Gradation for Engineered Backfill and Fill
Table 5: Recommended Gradation for Engineered Backfill and Fill
Sieve Size Percent Passing
3'' 100
2'' 85-100
3/4'' 71-100
#4 35-100
#200 0-7
Alternative gradations should be evaluated by a geotechnical engineer for acceptability if these
guidelines cannot be satisfied by locally available backfill materials.
6.7.2 Re-using Existing Soils
Existing native sand soils appear to be suitable for re -use as engineered fill. If soils are
encountered during excavation activities that are desired for re -use we recommend that the
suitability be confirmed with laboratory testing of bulk samples
6.7.3 Compaction Standard
We recommend using ASTM D1557 - Modified Proctor as the laboratory compaction standard.
25G2116 12
6.7.4 Density
We recommend compacting each lift to a minimum of the following percentage of the above
compaction standard for the respective types of fill materials:
Table 6: Compaction Recommendation
Type of Engineered Fill % Minimum Compaction
Foundation Structural Backfill 95%
Slab-on-Grade Backfill 95%
Non-structural Foundation Backfill 90%
Utility Trenches 90%
Within 3 Feet of Pavement Section 95%
6.7.5 Lift Thickness
Place engineered backfill and fill materials in lifts not to exceed eight inches in a loose
condition, unless the contractor can demonstrate satisfactory results when placing thicker lifts.
Maximum compacted lift thickness should not exceed 12 inches in a loose condition.
6.7.6 Moisture
In general, granular fill materials should be placed and compacted within two percent of
optimum moisture content, as determined by the above applicable compaction standard.
When fill materials are not in this range of moisture content, compaction to the required
density may be difficult if not impossible. The excavating contractor is responsible for
controlling and adjusting moisture content of backfill materials.
6.8 Parking and Drive Areas
Parking and drive areas at this site will likely be subjected to passenger vehicle traffic and some
truck traffic. As such, pavement sections throughout truck areas are expected to consist of
medium duty sections. Light duty sections may be used in automobile parking areas not
subjected to trucks. It is our understanding that either asphalt (flexible) or concrete (rigid)
pavements may be used.
6.8.1 Preparation
Prior to placing materials in parking or drive areas, the site should be scarified and any
observed soft or organic soils should be fully removed until competent material is encountered.
These areas should be brought to the desired subgrade elevations using compacted engineered
fill. After initial grading procedures, subgrade soils should be proof -rolled and observed by a
geotechnical engineer or designated representative to determine if soft areas are still present.
Any observed soft areas should be removed and replaced with compacted engineered fill to
provide a stable subgrade.
We recommend that a geotextile fabric ( WisDOT type SAS or equivalent) be placed between
the subgrade and the engineered pavement section to provide separation and promote
drainage.
25G2116 13
6.8.2 Pavement Sections
Recommended pavement sections for asphalt pavements are provided below assuming a 20 -
year design life.

We recommend using aggregate base meeting the specifications of WisDOT ¾” Dense Graded
Base. Granular subbase should meet the requirements of WisDOT Granular backfill - Grade 1.
Base and subbase should be compacted to 95 percent of their Modified Proctor dry density.
6.8.3 Subgrade Drainage
For drive areas constructed on granular material amongst clay soils, we recommend that
surfaces adjacent to drive and parking areas be properly sloped to promote drainage away from
the site and reduce the potential for creating a “bathtub” effect in roadway areas.
If surface drainage cannot be achieved, we recommend installing drain tile beneath the
pavements in low areas or around catch basins. The drain tile should be routed to a nearby
manhole, daylight, or other suitable collection point.
6.8.4 Maintenance
Achieving the best performance and lifespan of a pavement section requires routine
maintenance throughout the pavement life. We recommend that facility operations include
plans for performing crack sealing and seal coating of pavements as needed.
7 Recommendations for Construction
We offer the following recommendations for use during construction of this project.
7.1 Excavation
7.1.1 Dewatering
Groundwater was not encountered at this site at depths affecting construction. However, if
excavations extend below the hydrostatic groundwater surface an advanced dewatering system
will be required. An experienced dewatering contractor should be contacted for excavations
below the hydrostatic groundwater level.
25G2116 14
7.1.2 Over Sizing
Excavations for the placement of engineered backfill should extend horizontally at least a
minimum of one foot beyond the bottom of footing for every one foot of over excavation depth
required below the footing as shown in Figure 2 below.
Figure 2: Oversizing Example
7.1.3 Frozen Materials
If construction occurs during temperatures below freezing, the base of all excavations and
backfill materials should be protected from freezing. Excavated surfaces which become frozen
should be completely thawed before placing of backfill or pavement. If freezing has loosened
the excavation surface, remove the frozen material to the undisturbed surface. Frozen material
should not be used as backfill.
7.2 Observation
7.2.1 Excavations
Excavation bottoms and engineered fill operations should be observed by a geotechnical
engineer or a designated representative to assure that the recommendations in this report are
being followed. In -place density testing should be performed to document that project
specifications are met.
7.2.2 Foundations
Installation of foundations should be observed and documented by a qualified technician or
engineer. We recommend that at a minimum, concrete be tested for air content, temperature,
slump, and compressive strength.
7.3 Frequency of Testing
For this project, we recommend a minimum density testing frequency of one test per 1,000
square feet of backfill area of backfill and fill (per lift), with a minimum of one test per lift. For
isolated locations or questionable areas, we recommend a minimum of one test per occasion.
25G2116 15
8 Limitations of Evaluation and Report
8.1 Site Variations
We have based the analyses and recommendations submitted in this report in part on the data
obtained from eight (8) SPT borings. The nature and extent of variations at the site will not
become evident until construction. Where major variations appear it will be necessary for us to
re-evaluate the recommendations of this report.
8.2 Design Review
As the geotechnical engineer for this project, we recommend that we be provided an
opportunity to perform a general review of final plans and specifications for this project to
determine that recommendations provided have been properly interpreted and included in the
design. We assume no responsibility for misinterpretation or improper application of our
recommendations and conclusions by others.
8.3 Continuity of Professional Responsibility
We recommend that we be retained to provide geotechnical engineering services during
construction. This would allow us to observe compliance with the plans, compliance with the
specifications and recommendations, provides continuity of professional responsibility, and
allows design changes to be made in the event that subsurface conditions differ from those
anticipated.
8.4 Safe Working Conditions
Responsibility to provide safe working conditions for earthwork and below grade aspects of this
project is solely that of the contractors working on the project. It appears that the on site soils
are generally OSHA Type A and C soils . However, our site exploration was limited to eight
boring locations, and therefore excavations should be evaluated individually at the time of
construction by the contractor. All local, state and federal requirements, statutes, ordinances,
and building codes relating to slopes or temporary sheeting and bracing of trenches and
excavations must be observed during construction.
8.5 Exclusive Use
We have prepared this report for the exclusive use of DSGW Architects for specific application
to the design of the proposed Town of Brule Public Works Garage and Administration Office on
Old Highway 2 in Brule, Wisconsin . Professional services provided to this project by us were
completed, findings obtained, and recommendations prepared using generally accepted
engineering principles and practices. Conclusions and recommendations contained herein are
based upon the applicable standards of our profession at the time this report was prepared. No
warranty, express or implied, is made.

Water Level
Water levels indicated on the boring logs are as measured at stated times. In c lean sand soils, the elevations indicated
are considered relatively reliable levels. However, in less permeable soils, even after several days of monitoring,
accurate determinations may not be possible. Therefore, additional/alternative methods of groundwater elevation
monitoring should be sought.
