It is our intent to submit an additional application for a condo overlay on the 26 residential town homes the first 'of the year and this lot line adjustment will allow us to separate our ownership on the three buildings that intend to retain long term ownership of.

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. SITE HYDROLOGY General Notes: l Existing surface drainage conditions are defined in the Description of Si te. ite. Information provided in this section is limited to observations made at the time of the investigation. Regional and/or local ordinances may require information beyond the scope of this report. Groundwater: Perched groundwater conditions were encountered in test pits 2 and 3 at depths of 8.3 and 7.9 feet, respectively. These test pits were advanced adjacent to Ten Mile Creek where soil types and geology differs lfrom the remainder of the site. The estimation of the extent to which groundwater levels fluctuate under seasonal influences is problematic without regular monitoring. Groundwater levels in the site vicinity are controlled in Iarge part by residential and commercial irrigation activity and canal leakage in the local area, and are likely at their maximum elevations during the irrigation season. Based on the evidence of this investigation, and background knowledge of the area, it is unlikely that groundwater will be encountered during construction and is anticipated to remain at depths of greater than 6 feet below the ground surface (Elevation 2620) throughout the year. Hydraulic Conductivity: Soil permeability is- a measure of the ability of a liquid to move through a soil and was not tested in the field. In this report this parameter is approximated by soil type and gradation. Of soils comprising the generalized soil profile for this study, clay and silt soils generally offer little permeability, with typical hydraulic conductivity values less than 2 inches per hour. Conductivity values between 4 and 12 inches per hour can generally be expected in clayey/silty sand soils. Poorly graded gravel soils typically exhibit hydraulic conductivity values in excess of 24 inches per hour. Clayey gravels are expected to offer 4 to 10 inches per hour. However, clayey gravels with Calcium carbonate cementation encountered at varying depths across the site, will likely reduce hydraulic conductivity values to near zero. 7446 W.

Treasure Valley Engineers, Inc. 5680 E. Franklin Road Suite 220 Nampa, ID 83687 On December 110'we excavated and descn'bed five test holes on an approximately 10 acre parcel at 2190 South Meridian Road. The purpose of the evaluation was to determine suitability of soils to be used for storm drain £acuities and to sample for R. value testing_ Profile descriptions of all test holes are attached. Also included is a map showing the GPS locations of the test holes. Free water was encountered in the lower depths of three of the test holes (TH2-03, TH4- 03 and TH5-03). Monitoring tubes were installed in test holes THl-03, TIB-03 and THS-03 to allow measurement of any groundwater present. When measured on December 181 water was encountered in test hole THS-03 at 96 inches below ground level, while THl-03 and TM-03 were dry to a depth. of 175 inches. Because ofthe sandy textures below about 60 inches in most profiles, evidence of seasonal wetness was difficult to determine. To vm* depth to seasonal groundwater, the test holes should be monitored on a biweekly basis during the irrigation season. Samples were taken from test holes TM-03 and TH4-03 in the 16 to 24 inch zone and forwarded to the Materials Testing & Inspection laboratory for R-value testing. Values for the samples ranged from 12 to 22 for TM-03 with a 200 PSI value of 16 and from 16 to 25 for TH4-03 with an 18 value at 200 PSI. These samples represent well the load bearing soil conditions on the remainder of the property. Copies of the test resuhs are attached. Test hole TH5.03 lies within 50 feet of a perennial drainage ditch and has an overburden of gravelly material removed from the drain during cleaning Groundwater appears to be higher at this location, probably due to influence from the drainage ditch and since it is Iocated in a lower position. If you have any questions or require anything additional, please call me at 850-4926. HARLEY R- NOE Professional Soil Scientist CC w/aftachments: icon Sargent, Samag, LLC, Boise
