RE: Granton Square Subdivision — 2680 North Locust Grove Road — Meridian, ID
Annexation, Zoning & Preliminary Plat Narrative
Dear Bill:
On behalf of Granton Square Properties, LLC, we are pleased to submit the attached application and
required supplements for the annexation, zoning, and preliminary plat of Granton Square Subdivision.
Please accept this letter as the required written narrative regarding the project.
This project is located at 2680 North Locust Grove Road in Meridian, Idaho. The parcel includes 4.81
acres with an existing home and outbuildings. The site is presently zoned RUT in Ada County, but is
bordered on all sides by City limits. The enclosed applications propose to annex this property into the
City of Meridian with the R-8 zone to accommodate a single-family residential development, for which
a preliminary plat has also been submitted.
The site carries a Comprehensive Plan designation of Medium Density Residential. The requested R-8
zoning designation allows for up to 8 units per acre and is in accordance with other residential
developments in the area, including Chamberlain Estates Subdivision to the east and north, Chateau
Meadows Subdivision Nos. 6 and 9 to the south, and Tract Subdivision Nos. 1 and 5 across Locust
Grove to the west, all of which carry the R-8 zone. The attached preliminary plat proposes 29 buildable
lots and 6 common lots. This represents a gross density of 6.03 units per acre and a net density of 7.61
units per acre, both of which comply with the current Comp Plan designation and the requested R-8
zoning regulations. As the site is less than 5 acres, no amenity or open space is required, though the
developer will be providing the required 25' landscape buffer along Locust Grove Road, as well as the
required 5' landscape common lots along the common driveways. No variances are proposed with this
project.
The subject property presently has one access to Locust Grove Road, which will be shifted south to
serve this project. There are 3 other undeveloped parcels in this "infill area" north of the subject
property that also have access to Locust Grove Road. The parcel bordering Granton Square to the
north is a drainage facility common lot within Chamberlain Estates Subdivision, while the two parcels
north of that are in residential use. In an effort to assist with potentially limiting future access points to
Locust Grove, the developer worked extensively with ACHD staff to determine the best location for a
stub street through Granton Square to the north. The proposed location of this stub street will allow
the north properties to develop efficiently, while also providing the opportunity for ACHD to limit
ENGINEERS I SURVEYORS I PLANNERS
www.kmenglip.com
access points to Locust Grove with future development. One item of concern, however, is that the
stub street will have to cross the Chamberlain Estates common lot and drainage facility. While this will
require coordination with multiple parties, it is not impossible to accomplish and the developer has
preliminarily discussed this with the Chamberlain Estates HOA. They have confirmed that any
modifications to this lot will require a favorable vote from the HOA members, which can be pursued if
it becomes necessary in the future. Should the HOA not approve modifications to this lot, ACHD has
agreed that they would be forced to grant another access point to Locust Grove as a part of future
development.
This property has shares within the Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District, which will be utilized to
provide pressure irrigation to the project. The District has indicated that a there is potential to tie into
the existing pressure irrigation system in the neighboring Chamberlain Estates Subdivision. As Nampa
& Meridian Irrigation owns and maintains that system, we will continue to work with them as the
project progresses into formal design.
The existing home on the site straddles two proposed lots within Granton Square. The developer is
evaluating market conditions to determine if he will preserve and renovate the home or if he will
remove it. If the home is to be removed, the layout of Lots 20 & 21, Block 2, will remain as shown on
the preliminary plat. If the home is to be preserved and renovated, the line between Lots 20 and 21
will be removed at final platting and the overall lot count will be reduced by 1 lot.
We are not aware of any concerns in regards to public services in the area, as the addition of 29 new
homes within an existing residential area will not greatly impact available public services. Further,
Granton Square Subdivision will not create excessive additional requirements at public expense for
public facilities and services because services will be supported by property taxes and/or fees paid
directly to the service providers.
At this time, there are no known health, safety, or environmental problems that currently exist or that
will exist as a result of this development.
Should you have questions or require further information in order to process these applications,
please let me know as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
KM Engineering, LLP

As required by Ada County Highway District (ACHD), MTI has used a traffic index of 6 to determine the
necessary pavement cross-sections for the site. MTI has made assumptions for traffic loading variables based
on the character of the proposed construction. The Client should review these assumptions to make sure they
reflect intended use and loading of pavements both now and in the future. MTI collected a sample of near -
surface soils for Resistance Value (R -value) testing representative of soils to depths of 2 feet below existing
ground surface. This sample, consisting of lean clay collected from test pit 1, yielded a R -value of less than 5.
An R -value of 4 was used for design calculations. The following are minimum thickness requirements for
assured pavement function. Depending on site conditions, additional work, e.g, soil preparation, may be
required to support construction equipment. These have been listed within the Soft. Subgrade Soils
subsection of the original report. Results of the test are graphically depicted and included as an Enclosure.
Flexible Pavement Sections
The Gravel Equivalent Method, as defined in Section 500 of the State of Idaho Department of Transportation
(ITD) Materials Manual, was used to develop the pavement section. ACHD parameters for traffic index and
substitution ratios, which were obtained from the ACHD Policy Manual, were also used in the design. The
calculation sheet provided as an Enclosure indicate the soils constant, traffic loading, traffic projections, and
material constants used to calculate the pavement sections. MTI recommends that materials used in the
construction of asphaltic concrete pavements meet the requirements of the ISPWC Standard Specification for
Highway Construction, Construction of the pavement section should be in accordance with these
specifications and should adhere to guidelines recommended in the section on Construction Considerations
in the original report.

Common Pavement Section Construction Issues
The subgrade upon which above pavement sections are to be constructed must be properly stripped,
inspected, and proof -rolled. Proof rolling of subgrade soils should be accomplished using a heavy rubber -
tired, fully loaded, tandem -axle dump Duck or equivalent. Verification of subgrade competence by MTI
personnel at the time of construction is required. Fill materials on the site must demonstrate the indicated
compaction prior to placing material in support of the pavement section. MTI anticipates that pavement areas
will be subjected to moderate traffic. MTI does not anticipate pumping material to become evident during
compaction, but subgrade clays and silts near and above optimum moisture contents may tend to pump.
Pumping or soft areas must be removed and replaced with structural fill.
Fill material and aggregates in support of the pavement section must be compacted to no less than 95 percent
of the maximum thy density as determined by ASTM D698 for flexible pavements and by ASTM D1557 for
rigid pavements. If a material placed as a pavement section component cannot be tested by usual compaction
testing methods, then compaction of that material must be approved by observed proof rolling. Minor
deflections from proof rolling for flexible pavements are allowable, Deflections from proof rolling of rigid
pavement support courses should not be visually detectable.

INTRODUCTION
This report presents results of a geotechnical investigation and analysis in support of data utilized in design of
structures as defined in the 2012 International Building Code (IBC). Information in support of groundwater
and storm water issues pertinent to the practice of Civil Engineering is included. Observations and
recommendations relevant to the earthwork phase of the project are also presented. Revisions in plans or
drawings for the proposed development from those enumerated in this report should be brought to the
attention of the soils engineer to determine whether changes in foundation recommendations are required.
Deviations from noted subsurface conditions, if encountered during construction, should also be brought to
the attention of the soils engineer.
Project Description
The proposed development is in the east central portion of the City of Meridian, Ada County, ID, and
occupies a portion of the SWY4NWY4 of Section 5, Township 3 North, Range 1 East, Boise Meridian. This
project will consist of construction of an unknown number of residential lots with associated streets on
approximately 4.9 acres, Total settlements are limited to 1 inch. Loads of up to 4,000 pounds per lineal foot
for wall footings, and column loads of up to 50,000 pounds were assumed for settlement calculations.
Additionally, assumptions have been made for traffic loading of pavements. Pavement recommendations will
be provided in an addendum once the R -value test results have been received. Retaining walls are not
anticipated as part of the project. MTI has not been informed of the proposed grading plan.

SITE DESCRIPTION
Site Access
Access to the site may be gained via Interstate 84 to the Eagle Road exit. Proceed north on Eagle Road
approximately 1.5 miles to its intersection with Fairview Avenue. From this intersection, proceed west 1.0
mile to Locust Grove Road. Proceed north on Locust Grove Road approximately 0.63 mile to the project site.
The site is located on the east side of Locust Grove Road. Presently the site exists as a residence with
associated outbuildings and pasture land. The location is depicted on site map plates included in the
Appendix.
Regional Geology
The project site is located within the western Snake River Plain of southwestern Idaho and eastern
Oregon. The plain is a northwest trending rift basin, about 45 miles wide and 200 miles long, that developed
about 14 million years ago (Ma) and has since been occupied sporadically by large inland lakes. Geologic
materials found within and along the plain's margins reflect volcanic and fluvial/lacustrine sedimentary
processes that have led to an accumulation of approximately 1 to 2 km of interbedded volcanic and
sedimentary deposits within the plain. Along the margins of the plain, streams that drained the highlands to
the north and south provided coarse to fine-grained sediments eroded from granitic and volcanic rocks,
respectively. About 2 million years ago the last of the lakes was drained and since that time fluvial erosion
and deposition has dominated the evolution of the landscape. The project site is underlain by the "Gravel of
Whitney Terrace" as mapped by Othberg and Stanford (1993). Sediments of the Whitney terrace consist of
sandy pebble and cobble gravel. The Whitney terrace is the second terrace above modern Boise River
floodplain, is thickest toward its eastern extent, and is mantled with 2-6 feet of loess.

General Site Characteristics
This proposed development consists of approximately 4.9 acres of relatively flat and level land. Throughout
the majority of the site, surficial soils consist of fine-grained clays. Vegetation primarily consists of mature
trees, landscape plants, and pasture grasses.
Regional drainage is north toward the Boise River. Storm water drainage for the site is achieved by
percolation through surficial soils. The site is situated so that it is unlikely that it will receive any storm water
drainage from off-site sources. Stone water drainage collection and retention systems are proposed as part of
the development.
Regional Site Climatology and Geochemistry
According to the Western Regional Climate Center, the average precipitation for Treasure Valley is on the
order of 10 to 12 inches per year, with an annual snowfall of approximately 20 inches and a range from 3 to
49 inches. The monthly mean daily temperatures range from 21° F to 95° F with daily extremes ranging from
-25° F to 111° F. Winds are generally from the northwest or southeast with an amoral average wind speed of
approximately 9 miles per hour (mph) with a maximum of 62 mph. Soils and sediments in the area are
primarily derived from siliceous materials and exhibit low electro -chemical potential for corrosion of metals
or concretes. Local aggregates are generally appropriate for Portland cement and lime cement mixtures.
Surface waters, groundwaters, and soils in the region typically have pH levels ranging from 7.2 to 8.2.
Geoscismic Setting
Soils on site are classed as Site Class D in accordance with Chapter 20 of the American Society of Civil
Engineers (ASCE) publication ASCE/SEI 7-10. Structures constructed on this site should be designed per
IBC requirements for such a seismic classification. Our investigation did not reveal hazards resulting from
potential earthquake motions including: slope instability, liquefaction, and surface rupture caused by faulting
or lateral spreading. Incidence and anticipated acceleration of seismic activity in the area is low.
SOILS EXPLORATION
Exploration and Sampling Procedures
Field exploration conducted to determine engineering characteristics of subsurface materials included a
reconnaissance of the project site and investigation by test pit. Test pit sites were located in the field by
means of visual approximation from on-site features or known locations and are presumed to be accurate to
within a few feet. Upon completion of investigation, each test pit was backfilled with loose excavated
materials. Re -excavation and compaction of these test pit areas are required prior to construction of overlying
structures.

In addition, samples were obtained from representative soil strata encountered. Samples obtained have been
visually classified in the field by professional staff, identified according to test pit number and depth, placed
in sealed containers, and transported to our laboratory for additional testing. Subsurface materials have been
described in detail on logs provided in the Appendix. Results of field and laboratory tests are also presented
on these logs. MTI recommends that these logs not be used to estimate fill material quantities.
Laboratory Testing Program
Along with our field investigation, a supplemental laboratory testing program was conducted to determine
additional pertinent engineering characteristics of subsurface materials necessary in an analysis of the
anticipated behavior of the proposed structures. Laboratory tests were conducted in accordance with current
applicable American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specifications, and results of these tests are to
be found on the accompanying logs located in the Appendix. The laboratory testing program for this report
included: Atterberg Limits Tests- ASTM D4318, Grain Size Analysis - ASTM C117, C136, and Resistance
Value (R -Value) and Expansion Pressure of Compacted Soils — Idaho T-8. As to date, the R -value test results
have not been received and therefore have not been included within this report. MTI will forward the results
and associated pavement recommendations in the form of an addendum once the R -value test results have
been received.
Soil and Sediment Profile
The profile below represents a generalized interpretation for the project site. Note that on site soils strata,
encountered between test pit locations, may vary from the individual soil profiles presented in the logs, which
can be found in the Appendix.
The materials encountered during exploration were quite typical for the geologic area mapped as Gravel of
Whitney Terrace. Surficial soils were brown, moist to slightly moist, medium stiff to stiff, lean clays.
Organic materials were often noted to depths of roughly I foot. Underlying surficial lean clays, sandy silt
soils were encountered. These soils were brown and slightly moist. Consistencies commonly ranged from
stiff to hard with many of these firmer soil horizons containing some degree of calcium carbonate
cementation (hardpan),
Poorly graded gravel with sand sediments were encountered at depth. These sediments were brown, slightly
moist to saturated, and medium dense to dense. Fine to coarse grained sand, fine to coarse gravel, and 5 inch
minus cobbles were noted throughout. Silt content was noted in the upper portion of these sediments.
Competency of test pit walls varied little across the site. In general, fine grained soils remained stable while
more granular sediments readily sloughed. However, moisture contents will also affect wall competency with
saturated soils having a tendency to readily slough when under load and unsupported.

Volatile Organic Scan
No environmental concerns were identified prior to commencement of the investigation. Therefore, soils
obtained during on-site activities were not assessed for volatile organic compounds by portable
photoionization detector. Samples obtained during our exploration activities exhibited no odors or
discoloration typically associated with this type contamination. Groundwater encountered did not exhibit
obvious signs of contamination.
SITE HYDROLOGY
Existing surface drainage conditions are defined in the General Site Characteristics section. Information
provided in this section is limited to observations made at the time of the investigation. Either regional or
local ordinances may require information beyond the scope of this report.
Groundwater
During this field investigation, groundwater was encountered at a depth of 16.0 feet bgs in test pit 1. Soil
moistures in the test pits were generally moist to slightly moist within surficial soils, Within the poorly
graded gravels, soil moistures graded from slightly moist to saturated as the water table was approached and
penetrated.
In the vicinity of the project site, groundwater levels are controlled in large part by residential irrigation
activity and leakage from nearby canals. Maximum groundwater elevations likely occur during the later
portion of the irrigation season. During previous investigations performed in September 2004 and August
2006 within approximately'/4-mile of the project site, no evidence of groundwater was noted within test pits
advanced to depths varying between 11.8 and 16.4 feet bgs. However, during investigations performed in
April 2005 and June 2014 within approximately'/n-mile of the project site, groundwater was encountered at
depths varying between 14.1 and 17.0 feet bgs.
Based on evidence of this investigation and background knowledge of the area, MTI estimates groundwater
depths to remain greater than approximately 12 feet bgs throughout the year. This depth can be confirmed
through long-term groundwater monitoring.
Soil Infiltration Rates
Soil permeability, which is a measure of the ability of a soil to transmit a fluid, was not tested in the field,
Given the absence of direct measurements, for this report an estimation of infiltration is presented using
generally recognized values for each soil type and gradation. Of soils comprising the generalized soil profile
for this study, lean clay soils generally offer little permeability, with typical hydraulic infiltration rates of less
than 2 'inches per hour. Sandy silt soils will commonly exhibit infiltration rates from 2 to 4 inches per hour;
though calcium carbonate cementation may reduce this value to near zero. Poorly graded gravel sediments
typically exhibit infiltration values in excess of 12 inches per hour. Infiltration testing is generally not
required within these sediments because of their free -draining nature,

It is recommended that infiltration facilities constructed on -the site be extended into native, silt -free, poorly
graded gravel with sand sediments, Excavation depths of approximately 8 feet bgs should be anticipated to
expose these silt -free, poorly graded gravel with sand sediments. Because of the high soil permeability,
ASTM C33 filter sand, or equivalent, should be incorporated into design of infiltration facilities. An
infiltration rate of 8 inches per hour should be used in design. Actual infiltration rates should be confirmed at
the time of construction.
FOUNDATION AND SLAB DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Various foundation types Have been considered for support of the proposed structures. Two requirements
must be met in the design of foundations. First, the applied bearing stress must be less than the ultimate
bearing capacity of foundation soils to maintain stability. Second, total and differential settlement must not
exceed an amount that will produce an adverse behavior of the superstructure. Allowable settlement is
usually exceeded before bearing capacity considerations become important; thus, allowable bearing pressure
is normally controlled by settlement considerations.
Considering subsurface conditions and the proposed construction, it is recommended that the structures be
founded upon conventional spread footings and continuous wall footings. Total settlements should not
exceed 1 inch if the following design and construction recommendations are observed. The following
recommendations are not specific to the individual structures but rather should be viewed as guidelines for
the subdivision — wide development.
Foundation Design Recommendations
Based on data obtained from the site and test results from various laboratory tests performed, MTI
recommends the following guidelines for the net allowable soils bearing capacity:

Footings should be proportioned to meet either the stated soil bearing capacity or the 2012 IBC minimum
requirements. Total settlement should be limited to approximately 1 inch, and differential settlement should
be limited to approximately % inch. Objectionable soil types encountered at the bottom of footing
excavations should be removed and replaced with structural fill. Excessively loose or soft areas that are
encountered in the footing subgrade will require over -excavation and backfilling with structural fill. To
minimize the effects of slight differential movement that may occur because of variations in character of
supporting soils and seasonal moisture content, MTI recommends continuous footings be suitably reinforced
to make them as rigid as possible. For frost protection the bottom of external footings should be 24 inches
below finished grade.
Crawl Space Recommendations
Considering the presence of shallow cemented soils across the site, all residences constructed with crawl
spaces should be designed in a manner that will inhibit water in the crawl spaces. MTI recommends that roof
drains carry storm water at least 5 feet away from each residence. Grades should be greater than 5% for a
distance of 10 feet away from all residences, In addition, rain gutters should be placed around all sides of
residences, and backfill around stein walls should be placed and compacted in a controlled manner.
Based on test pit logs, areas with shallow cementation are likely to be encountered across much of the site. III
areas where cemented soils will be within 2 feet of the crawl space elevation, construction of subsurface
drains is also recommended. Review of proposed grading in conjunction with soils data presented by MTI
will be required to identify these areas. Subsurface drains should be placed at storm water and irrigation
water collection points within the lawn area. These drains will require over -excavation through cemented
soils to underlying free -draining soils and backfilling with permeable soils to permit drainage,
Floor, Patio, and Garage Slab -on Grade
Native clay soils are moderately plastic and will be susceptible to shrink/swell movements associated with
moisture changes. Areas of the site within the proposed structures should be excavated to sufficient depths to
expose lean clay. The clay soils should be scarified to a depth of 6 inches and re -compacted between 92
percent and 98 percent of the maximum density as determined by ASTM D698. The moisture content should
range from 1 to 4 percentage points above optimum. Structural fill should be placed as soon as possible after
re -compaction of clay soils in order to limit moisture loss within the upper clays. Ground surfaces should be
sloped away from structures at a minimum of 5 percent for a distance of 10 feet to provide positive drainage
of surface water away from buildings. Grading must be provided and maintained following construction.
Organic, loose, or obviously compressive materials must be removed prior to placement of concrete floors or
floor -supporting fill. In addition, the remaining subgrade should be treated in accordance with guidelines
presented in the Earthwork section. Areas of excessive yielding should be excavated and backfilled with
structural fill. Fill used to increase the elevation of the floor stab should meet requirements detailed in the
Structural Fill section. Fill materials must be compacted to a minimum 95 percent of maximum density as
determined by ASTM D1557.

A free -draining granular mat (drainage fill course) should be provided below slabs -on -grade. This should be
a minimum of 4 inches in thickness and properly compacted, The mat should consist of a sand and gravel
mixture, complying with Idaho Standards for Public Works Construction (ISPWC) specifications for'/4-inch
(Type 1) crushed aggregate. A moisture -retarder should be placed beneath floor slabs to minimize potential
ground moisture effects on moisture -sensitive floor coverings. The moisture -retarder should be at least 15 -mil
in thickness and have a permeance of less than 0.01 US perms as determined by ASTM E96. Placement of
the moisture -retarder will require special consideration with regard to effects on the slab -on -grade and should
adhere to recommendations outlined in the ACI 302.IR and ASTM E1745 publications. The granular mat
should be compacted to no less than 95 percent of maximum density as determined by ASTM DI S57. Upon
request, MTl can provide further consultation regarding installation.
CONSTRUCTION CONSIDrRATIONS
Recommendations in this report are based upon structural elements of the project being founded on
competent, undisturbed, native sandy silt soils or compacted structural fill. Structural areas should be stripped
to an elevation that exposes these soil types.
Earthwork
Excessively organic soils, deleterious materials, or disturbed soils generally undergo high volume changes
when subjected to loads, which is detrimental to subgrade behavior in the area of pavements, floor slabs,
structural fills, and foundations. Mature trees, brush, and thick grasses with associated root systems were
noted at the time of our investigation. It is recommended that organic or disturbed soils, if encountered, be
removed to depths of 1 foot (minimum), and wasted or stockpiled for later use. Stripping depths should be
adjusted in the field to assure that the entire root zone or disturbed zoneor topsoil are removed prior to
placement and compaction of structural fill materials. Exact removal depths should be determined during
grading operations by MTI personnel, and should be based upon subgrade soil type, composition, and
firmness or soil stability. If underground storage tanks, underground utilities, wells, or septic systems are
discovered during construction activities, they must be decommissioned then removed or abandoned in
accordance with governing Federal, State, and local agencies. Excavations developed as the result of such
removal must be backfilled with structural fill materials as defined in the Structural Fill section.
MTI should oversee subgrade conditions (i.e., moisture content) as well as placement and compaction of new
fill (if required) after native soils are excavated to design grade. Recommendations for structural fill
presented in this report can be used to minimize volume changes and differential settlements that are
detrimental to the behavior of footings, pavements, and floor slabs. Sufficient density tests should be
performed to properly monitor compaction. For structural fill beneath building structures, one in-place
density test per lift for every 5,000 square feet is recommended. h1 parking and driveway areas, this can be
decreased to one test per lift for every 10,000 square feet.

Dry Weather
If construction is to be conducted during dry seasonal conditions, many problems associated with soft soils
may be avoided. However, some rutting of subgrade soils may be induced by shallow groundwater
conditions related to springtime runoff or irrigation activities during late summer through early fall. Solutions
to problems associated with soft subgrade soils are outlined in the Soft Subgrade Soils section. Problems
may also arise because of lack of moisture in native and fill soils at time of placement. This will require the
addition of water to achieve near -optimum moisture levels. Low -cohesion soils exposed in excavations may
become friable, increasing chances of sloughing or caving. Measures to control excessive dust should be
considered as part of the overall health and safety management plan.
Wet Weather
If construction is to be conducted during wet seasonal conditions (commonly from mid-November through
May), problems associated with soft soils must be considered as part of the construction plan. During this
time of year, fine-grained soils such as silts and clays will become unstable with increased moisture content,
and eventually deform or rut. Additionally, constant low temperatures reduce the possibility of drying soils to
near optimum conditions.
Soft Subgrade Soils
Shallow fine-grained subgrade soils that are high in moisture content should be expected to pump and rut
under construction traffic. During periods of wet weather, construction may become very difficult if not
impossible. The following recommendations and options have been included for dealing with soft subgrade
conditions:
• Track -mounted vehicles should be used to strip the subgrade of root matter and other deleterious
debris. Heavy rubber -tired equipment should be prohibited from operating directly on the native
subgrade and areas in which structural fill materials have been placed. Construction traffic should be
restricted to designated roadways that do not cross, or cross on a limited basis, proposed roadway or
parking areas.
• Construction roadways on soft subgrade soils should consist of a minimum 2 -foot thickness of large
cobbles of 4 to 6 inches in diameter with sufficient sand and fines to fill voids. Construction entrances
should consist of a 6 -inch thickness of clean, 2 -inch minimum, angular drain -rock and must be a
minimum of 10 feet wide and 30 to 50 feet long. During the construction process, top dressing of the
entrance may be required for maintenance.
• Scarification and aeration of subgrade soils can be employed to reduce the moisture content of wet
subgrade soils. After stripping is complete, the exposed subgrade should be ripped or disked to a
depth of l tf2 feet and allowed to air dry for 2 to 4 weeks. Further disking should be performed on a
weekly basis to aid the aeration process.
• Alternative soil stabilization methods include use of geotextiles, lime, and cement stabilization. MTI
is available to provide recommendations and guidelines at your request.

Frozen Subgrade Soils
Prior to placement of structural fill materials or foundation elements, frozen subgrade soils must either be
allowed to thaw or be stripped to depths that expose non -frozen soils and wasted or stockpiled for later use.
Stockpiled materials must be allowed to thaw and return to near -optimal conditions prior to use as structural
fill.
Structural Fill
Soils recommended for use as structural fill are those classified as GW, GP, SW, and SP in accordance with
the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) (ASTM D2487). Use of silty soils (USCS designation of GM,
SM, and ML) as structural fill may be acceptable. However, use of silty soils (GM, SM, and ML) as
structural fill below footings is prohibited. These materials require very high moisture contents for
compaction and require a long time to dry out if natural moisture contents are too high and may also be
susceptible to frost heave under certain conditions. Therefore these materials can be quite difficult to work
with as moisture content, lift thickness, and compactive effort becomes difficult to control. If silty soil is used
for structural fill, lift thicknesses should not exceed 6 inches (loose), and fill material moisture must be
closely monitored at both the working elevation and the elevations of materials already placed. Following
placement, silty soils mast be protected from degradation resulting from construction traffic or subsequent
construction.
Recommended granular structural fill materials, those classified as GW, GP, SW, and SP, should consist of a
6 -inch minus select, clean, granular soil with no more than 50 percent oversize (greater than %-inch) material
and no more than 12 percent fines (passing No. 200 sieve). These fill materials should be placed in layers not
to exceed 12 inches in loose thickness. Prior to placement of structural fill materials, surfaces must be
prepared as outlined in the Construction Considerations section. Structural fill material should be moisture -
conditioned to achieve optimum moisture content prior to compaction. For structural fill below footings,
areas of compacted backfill must extend outside the perimeter of the footing for a distance equal to the
thickness of fill between the bottom of foundation and underlying soils, or 5 feet, whichever is less. All fill
materials must be monitored during placement and tested to confirm compaction requirements, outlined
below, have been achieved.
Each layer of structural fill must be compacted, as outlined below:
• Below Structures and Rigid Pavements: A minimum of 95 percent of the maximum dry density as
determined by ASTM D 1557.
• Below Flexible Pavements: A minimum of 92 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by
ASTM D 1557 or 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D698.
The ASTM D1557 test method must be used for samples containing up to 40 percent oversize (greater than
n/4 -inch) particles. If material contains more than 40 percent but less than 50 percent oversize particles,
compaction of fill must be confirmed by proof rolling each lift with a 10 -ton vibratory roller (or equivalent)
until the maximum density has been achieved. Density testing must be performed after each proof rolling
pass until the in-place density test results indicate a drop (or no increase) in the dry density, defined as the
maximum density or "break over" point. The number of required passes should be used as the requirement on
the remainder of fill placement. Material should contain sufficient fines to fill void spaces, and must not
contain more than 50 percent oversize particles.

Backfill of Walls
Backfill materials must conform to the requirements of structural fill, as defined in this report. For wall
heights greater than 2.5 feet, the maximum material size should not exceed 4 inches in diameter. Placing
oversized material against rigid surfaces interferes with proper compaction, and can induce excessive point
loads on walls. Backfill shall not commence until the wall has gained sufficient strength to resist placement
and compaction forces. Further, retaining walls above 2.5 feet in height shall be backfilled in a manner that
will limit the potential for damage from compaction methods and/or equipment. It is recommended that only
small hand -operated compaction equipment be used for compaction of backfill within a horizontal distance
equal to the height of the wall, measured from the back face of the wall.
Backfill should be compacted in accordance with the specifications for structural fill, except in those areas
where it is determined that future settlement is not a concern, such as planter areas. In nonstructural areas,
backfill must be compacted to a firm and unyielding condition.
Excavations
Shallow excavations that do not exceed 4 feet in depth may be constructed with side slopes approaching
vertical. Below this depth, it is recommended that slopes be constructed in accordance with Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, section 1926, subpart P. Based on these regulations,
on-site soils are classified as type "C" soil, and as such, excavations within these soils should be constructed
at a maximum slope of 1%, foot horizontal to 1 foot vertical (I%H:IV) for excavations up to 20 feet in height.
Excavations in excess of 20 feet will require additional analysis. Note that these slope angles are considered
During our subsurface exploration, test pit sidewalls generally exhibited little indication of collapse. For deep
excavations, native granular sediments cannot be expected to remain in position. These materials are prone to
failure and may collapse, thereby, undermining upper soil layers. This is especially true when excavations
approach depths near the water table. Care must be taken to ensure that excavations are properly backfilled in
accordance with procedures outlined in this report.
Groundwater Control
Groundwater was encountered during the investigation but is anticipated to be below the depth of most
construction. If recommended, excavations below the water table will require a dewatering program.
Dewatering will be required prior to placement of fill materials. Placement of concrete can be accomplished
through water by the use of a treme. It may be possible to discharge dewatering effluent to remote portions of
the site, to a sump, or to a pit. This will essentially recycle effluent, thus eliminating the need to enter into
agreements with local drainage authorities. Should the scope of the proposed project change, MTI should be
contacted to provide more detailed groundwater control measures.

Special precautions may be required for control of surface runoff and subsurface seepage. It is recommended
that runoff be directed away from open excavations. Silty and clayey soils may become soli and pump if
subjected to excessive traffic during time of surface runoff. Ponded water in construction areas should be
drained through methods such as trenching, sloping, crowning grades, nightly smooth drum rolling, or
installing a French drain system, Additionally, temporary or permanent driveway sections should be
constructed if extended wet weather is forecasted.
GENERAL COMMENTS
When plans and specifications are complete, or if significant changes are made in the character or location of
the proposed development, consultation with MTI should be arranged as supplementary recommendations
may be required. Suitability of subgrade soils and compaction of structural fill materials must be verified by
MTI personnel prior to placement of structural elements. Additionally, monitoring and testing should be
performed to verify that suitable materials are used for structural fill and that proper placement and
compaction techniques are utilized,

Subject: RE: New Project on Locust Grove between Fairview and Ustick
Randy,
I apologize for taking so long to get back to you. I agree with your assessment of the situation and the plan
you suggest. If the HOA will cooperate it would be great to stub to the other side of their lot. If not, we would
just have to wait and see what happened when the next parcel came forward. If need be another access to
Locust Grove would have to be granted.
One item though, Locust Grove is not programmed to be widened in 2017. It is in our Capital Improvements
Plan to be widened in the years 2017 to 2021. At this point I believe that is not likely and it will probably be
later than that. The planned years in the CIP are very high level planning estimates. Until a project moves into
our Integrated Five Year Work Plan it is not programmed for a specific year. The current IFYWP runs through
2018 and Locust Grove is not in the plan.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
Gary.

Subject: New Project on Locust Grove between Fairview and Ustick
Hi Gary,
I recently put under contract an infill site on the east side of Locust Grove between Fairview and Ustick (see attached).
There are two unique issues involving access and drainage I thought I would run by you first and then maybe you can
direct me to the right people at ACHD. There are 4 small properties in this infill area. Our site, which is 5 acres, a 50 foot
wide strip to the north of us owned by the Chamberlain HOA which has a drainage facility on it and two small properties
north of that. The City of Meridian want's only one public street access for these 4 properties which I understand is
preferred but problematic. It has also suggested that the storm facility be relocated to help the access situation which
isn't clear to me. Moving or relocating the HOA common area tract is also very problematic from a platting standpoint.
We have met with the HOA and they seem very cooperative but I don't believe this would be an option. I have attached
a plan I think solves both problems and wanted to run it by you. We can accomplish the following with this plan:
1. Keep the common area storm tract in place and only modify it by installing one road crossing and expanding the
facility westward.
2. Keep the public street access to one location on Locust Grove, however the cul-de-sac that goes north would
need to extend to about 700LF, which may require a variance.
3. Allow our site to develop first while providing access to the properties to the north.
One challenge with this plan is that the Chamberlain HOA would need to vote to approve any modifications we would
propose here. I feel good about that now but you never know what might happen in the end. If they for some reason
disapprove the plan then I would suggest we go forward with our development plan and either they will change their
mind in the future for the property to the north or possibly another access would be needed to Locust Grove. The other
thing I have heard is that Locust Grove is scheduled for widening to 5 lanes in 2017. Maybe this storm facility would
factor into those plans for ACHD to own. I think the HOA is motivated to possibly sell it.
Please give me your thoughts.
