ENGEO <br /> INCORPORATED <br /> <br /> <br />5150.100.101 <br />May 2, 2008 Page 27 <br />11. RISK MANAGEMENT <br /> <br />Our experience and that of our profession clearly indicates that the risk of costly design, <br />construction, and maintenance problems can be significantly lowered by retaining the design <br />geotechnical engineering firm to provide construction monitoring services as outlined below: <br /> <br />1. Retain ENGEO to review the final grading and drainage plans prior to construction to <br />determine whether our recommendations have been implemented, and to provide additional <br />or modified recommendations, if necessary. <br /> <br />2. Retain ENGEO to perform construction monitoring to check the validity of the assumptions <br />we made to prepare this report. Our services would include testing and observation during <br />site clearing, mass grading, subdrain installation, foundation excavation, underground utility <br />construction, and pavement subgrade and aggregate base compaction. <br /> <br />3. If any changes occur in the nature, design or location of the proposed improvements, then <br />retain ENGEO to review the changes and prepare a written response and validate the <br />conclusions and recommendations in this report. <br /> <br />4. If 2 years or more lapse between the time this report was prepared and construction, or if <br />conditions have changed because of natural causes or construction operations on or near the <br />site, then retain ENGEO to review this report for applicability to the new conditions. This <br />report is applicable only for the project and site studied. <br /> <br />If we are not retained to perform the services described above, then we are not responsible for <br />any party’s interpretation of our report (and subsequent addenda, letters, and verbal discussions). <br /> <br />12. LIMITATIONS <br /> <br />This report presents geotechnical recommendations for construction of improvements discussed <br />in Section 1.3 for the Hana Japan Steakhouse project. If changes occur in the nature or design of <br />the project, we should be allowed to review this report and provide additional recommendations, <br />if any. <br />
