- 3 - <br />• <br />photographs available of the area; the assessment was supported <br />by geotechnical mapping of the valley. <br />During the mapping program, the area was divided into zones <br />of individual geotechnical units, such as man-made fills, <br />alluvial deposits of the Munger Creek and its tributaries, <br />terrace deposits, colluvial soils, talus deposits, and bedrock <br />outcrops. <br />In addition geotechnical mapping a detailed documen- <br />tation of the existing road cuts has been made. Cut heights <br />and slopes, their stability condition, problems of sloughing, <br />problems of rockfall and other items have been recorded and <br />i evaluated. <br />The alignment of the existing gravel road has been re- <br />viewed and the geotechnical conditions along it have been <br />evaluated. <br />Five samples of soils that are regarded as typical for <br />the geological conditions of the area have been collected for <br />soil testing. These samples are disturbed samples; results of <br />their testing are presented in the Appendix A of this report, <br />2.0 SITE CODTDITIONS <br />i 2.1 TOPOGRAPHY <br />• <br />The proposed haul road will be located in a rugged .topography. <br />
