ENGEO INCORPORATED 5150.100.101 March 31, 2008 4 trench logs, variable thicknesses of fill were encountered over horizontally stratified soil and alluvium in Trenches T-1, T-2a and T-3. Near the eastern end of Trench T-2a, steeply inclined contacts were logged that may be fault related. A fault study was performed by Kleinfelder and Associates (1984) on the parcel to the north of the hotel site. Two exploratory trenches were excavated at the approximately locations depicted on Figure 4. No indications of faulting were noted in the trench logs. The fault study by Burkland, (1973) was performed for the water tank located south of the site. A fault feature was encountered near the east end of Trench 1. This fault features appears to be the main trace of the Calaveras fault. West of the fault, interbedded sandstone, shale and conglomerate were encountered in the trenching and no other indications of fault are noted in the logs. Four exploratory trenches were excavated at the approximate locations shown on Figure 2 by Geotechnical Engineering, Inc. (1988). Fault features were encountered near the eastern end of Trench 1. These fault features appear to be associated with the main trace of the Calaveras fault. No other fault features were noted in the trench logs. Subsequent to the trenching by Geotechnical Engineering, Inc., an additional trench was excavated by Hydro-Geo Consultants, Inc. (1990). The approximate location of the trench is shown on Figure 2. The trench log indicates that no features indicative of faulting were encountered. Aerial Photograph and Geomorphic Interpretation Aerial photographs taken by Pacific Aerial Surveys in 1957 were examined to evaluate geomorphic features that could be fault related. A prominent vegetation lineation was noted along the toe of the hillside on the western portion of the site where the fault traces have been mapped by Hart (1981) and Crane (1988). This vegetation lineament projects to a topographic bench or notch to the south of
