<br />PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br />This report presents the results of our geotechnical evaluation performed to <br />determine the general subsurface conditions of the site applicable to construction of a small <br />embankment for a sedimentation pond, designated RSN Pond 12, Roadside North Portal, Cameo, <br />CO. A vicinity map is included in the Appendix of this report. <br />To assist in our exploration, we were provided with a site location map, a <br />proposed embankment section and printed pages containing criteria for design and construction of <br />such embankments. The Boring Location Plan attached to this report is based on that plan provided <br />to us. <br />We understand the proposed embankment will consist of an earthen fill, a <br />maximum of6 feet high and approximately 130 feet tong. This earthen fill will retain approximately <br />5 feet of water and sediment. The proposed section of this embankment includes a cutoff trench, <br />• approximately 4 feet deep and a minimum of TO feet wide. <br />The characteristics of 4he subsurface materials encountered were evaluated <br />with regard to the type of construction described above. Recommendations are included herein to <br />match the described construction to the soil characteristics found. The information contained herein <br />may or may not be valid for other purposes. If the proposed site use is changed or types of con- <br />struction proposed, other than noted herein, Lincoln DeVore should be contacted to determine if the <br />information in this report can be used for the new construction without fiuther field evaluations. <br />PROJECT SCOPE <br />The purpose of ow exploration was to evaluate the surface and subsurface soil <br />and geologic conditions of the site and, based on the conditions encountered, to provide recom- <br />mendations pertaining to the geotechnical aspects of the site development as previously described. <br />The conclusions and rewmmendations included herein are based on an analysis of the data obtained <br />from our field explorations, laboratory testing program, and on our experience with similar soil and <br />geologic conditions in the area. <br />r~ <br />
