Project No. JB-569 <br />20 June 2006 <br />Revised 18 October 2006 <br />Page 15 <br />for subsurface saturation. It is important that all utility trenches be properly <br />backfilled. If practicable, planters and/or landscaping should not be adjacent to <br />or near the structures. If vegetation must be planted adjacent to or near <br />structures, plants that require very little moisture with drip irrigation systems <br />should be used. Sprinkler heads should not be placed where they could saturate <br />foundation soil. <br />6.7 Miscellaneous <br />Our exploration did not reveal the presence of buried items such as leaching <br />fields, wells, storage tanks, etc other than previously discussed. We understand, <br />however, that such items may be present. If such items are encountered during <br />grading or during excavations of foundations, our firm should be notified <br />immediately to provide recommendations for proper procedures. Also, this study <br />i did not include investigations for toxic substances or groundwater contamination <br />of any type. If such conditions are encountered during site development, <br />additional studies will be required. <br />6.8 Plan Review <br />Before submitting design drawings and construction documents to the appropriate <br />local agency for approval, copies of the documents should be reviewed by our <br />firm to ensure that the recommendations in this report have been effectively <br />incorporated. <br />6.9 Construction Observations <br />We recommend that our representative be present during grading and foundation <br />excavation to observe that the work performed is in conformance with <br />specifications and recommendations provided here. We will also perform testing <br />as necessary to evaluate the quality of the materials and their relative compaction. <br />Records will be maintained of our site visits and test results. <br />At the completion of site grading and foundation excavation, we will submit a <br />summary of our observation and test results along with any necessary <br />supplemental recommendations. To assure that our personnel are at the site <br />when needed, we require that you notify us at least 2 working days before the <br />task begins. <br />Korbmacher Engineering, Inc. <br />
