LABORATORY TESTING PROCEDURES
A series of laboratory tests were performed during the course of this study to evaluate the index
and geotechnical engineering properties of the subsurface soils. Descriptions of the types of tests
performed are given below.
visual Classification
Samples recovered from the exploration locations were visually classified in the field during the
exploration program. Representative portions of the samples were carefully packaged in moisture
tight containers and transported to our laboratory where the field classifications were verified or
modified as required. Visual classification was generally done in accordance with ASTM D2488.
Visual soil classification includes -evaluation of color, relative moisture content, soil type based
upon grain size, and accessofy soil types included in the sample. Soil classifications are
presented on the exploration logs in Appendix A.
Moisture Content Determinations
Moisture content determinations were performed on representative samples obtained from the
explorations in order to aid in identification and correlation of soil types, The determinations were
made in general accordance with the test procedures described in ASTM D-2216. Moisture
contents are presented on the exploration logs in Appendix A.
Grain Size Analysis
A grain size analysis indicates the range in diameter of soil particles included in a particular
sample. Grain size analyses were performed on representative samples in general accordance
with ASTM: D-422. For this project, the grain size analyses tests were completed on that portion
of the sample passing the U.S. Number 10 sieve and used a U.S. Number 325 sieve to delineate
the break between sand and fine grained soils (slit and clay) in accordance with the USDA Soil
Textural Triangle Classification requirements. The results of the grain size determinations for the
samples were used in classification of the soils, and are presented in this appendix.

FIELD EXPLORATION PROCEDURES
Field Exploration Description
Our field exploration for this project included three test pits completed on May 29, 2015. The
approximate exploration locations are presented on the enclosed Site and Exploration Plan,
Figure 1. Exploration locations were determined in the field by measuring distances from existing
site features with a fiberglass tape relative to an undated topographic site plan provided by J.C.
McDonnell Engineering. Ground surface elevations at the explorations were determined using a
hand level relative to the elevation of the sidewalk shown on the topographic site plan. As such,
the exploration locations and elevations should be considered accurate only to the degree implied
by the measurement method. The following sections describe our procedures associated with
the explorations. Descriptive logs of the explorations are enclosed in this appendix.
Test Pit Procedures
An independent contractor working for Babbit Neuman Construction Company excavated the test
pits through the use of a small, rubber -tracked excavator. An engineering geologist from our ' firm
continuously observed the test pit excavations, to , ged the subsurface conditions, and obtained
9
representative soil samples. The samples were stored in moisture tight containers and
transported to our laboratory for further visual classification and testing. After we logged each
test pit, the operator backfilled the test pit with excavated soils tamped into place. Some
settlement of the backfill should be expected over time.
The enclosed test pit logs indicate the vertical sequence of soils and materials encountered in
each test pit, based primarily on our field classifications and supported by our subsequent
laboratory testing. Where a soil contact was observed to be gradational or undulating, our logs
indicate the average contact depth. We estimated the relative density and consistency of in situ
soils by means of the excavation characteristics and by the sidewall stability. Our logs also
indicate the approximate depths of any sidewall caving or groundwater seepage observed in the
test pits, as well as all sample numbers and sampling locations.

CLOSURE
The analysis and recommendations presented In this report are based, in part, on the explorations
completed for this study, The number, location, and depth of the explorations were completed
within the constraints of budget and site access so as to yield the Information to formulate our
recommendations. Project plans were In the preliminary stage at the time this report was
prepared. We therefore recommend we be provided an opportunity to review the final plans and
specifications when they become available in order to assess that the recommendations and
design considerations presented In this report have been properly interpreted and Implemented
Into the project design.
The performance of infiltration facilities depends greatly on proper subgrade preparation and
construction procedures. We recommend that Zipper Geo Associates, LI-C be retained to provide
geotechnical engineering services during Infiltration subgrade preparation and construction for
the project, If variations in subsurface conditions are observed at that time, a qualified
geotechnical engineer could provide additional geotechnical recommendations to the contractor
and design team In a timely manner as the project construction progresses.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Babbit Neuman Construction Company,
and its agents, for specific application to this project and has been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted geotechnical engineering practices. No warranties, express or implied, are
Intended or made. Site safety, excavation support, and dewatering requirements are the
responsibility of others, In the event that changes In the nature, design, or location of the project
as outlined In this report are planned, the conclusions and recommendations contained in this
report shall not be considered valid unless Zipper Geo Associates, LI-C reviews the changes and
either verifies or modifies the conclusions of this report In writing.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
We understand that the design of infiltration systems for this project will be completed in accordance
with City of Edmonds Bulletin # E72B and Appendix C of the City of Edmonds Stormwater
Supplement. We understand that Infiltration systems currently under consideration Include
permeable pavement, rain gardens, and drywells, with drywells being the preferred system at this
time.
Based on the results'of our subsurface explorations and laboratory tests, it is our opinion th ' at
Infiltration of site stormwater into the coarse -grained Whidbey Formation soils encountered at a
depth of about 41/z feet below grade Is feasible from a geotechnical perspective. Given the depth
of the receptor soils, we anticipate that deeper Infiltration systems such as drywells or buried
chamber systems, such as StormTech systems, would be appropriate. Due to the low permeability
of the fine-grained Whidbey Formation deposits generally encountered In the upper 41/2feet of the
site, we do not recommend the use of shallow Infiltration systems such as permeable pavement or
rain gardens. Geotechnical design recommendations for site infiltration are presented below.
Infiltration Facility Depth: We recommend that the coarse -grained Whidbey Formation deposits
typically encountered at a depth of about 4Y2 feet below existing site grade be utilized as the
receptor soils for the site infiltration system. However, Test pits TP-1 and TP-3 encountered a 3-
to 4-inch thick seam of lower permeability sandy silt within the coarse -grained Whidbey Deposit at
depths of about Vito 6 feet below the ground surface. As such, we recommend that the base of the
Infiltration facility be located below the lower permeability silt layer and at least 5Y2 to 6 feet below
grade and.
Long -Term design Infiltration Rate: The coarse -grained Whidbey Formation receptor soils have
USDS Textural Triangle Soil Classifications ranging from Sand to Loamy Sand. Based on the
City of Edmonds Stormwater Supplement, Appendix C, Table C-1, we recommend a design long-
term Infiltration rate of 0.5 Inches per hour. The design long-term Infiltration rate Includes a
Correction Factor (CF) of at least 4.
Seasonal High 'Groundwater Groundwater was not observed In the test pit explorations
completed for this study, which extended to a maximum depth of about 8 feet. Boring B-1
completed by in Sunset Avenue North about 40 feet north of the site encountered groundwater at
a depth of about 23 feet at the time of drilling. Groundwater was measuredin the borings
monitoring well at a depth of about 20 feet 6 days after drilling. Relative to the project datum,
Boring B-1 appears to have a ground surface elevation of about 26 feet. This correlates to time
of drilling and post -drilling groundwater elevations of about 3 feet and 6 feet, respectively. Based
on the recorded groundwater conditions in borings B-1, and anticipated groundwater response to
tidal fluctuations and seasonal variations in precipitation, we recomm end the use of a seasonal
high groundwater elevation of 12 feet for Infiltration design purposes.

installed In the boring and groundwater was measured In the monitoring well at a depth of about
20 feet 6 days after drilling. Relative to the project datum, Boring B-1 appears to have a ground
surface elevation of about 26 feet, This correlates to time of drilling and post -drilling groundwater
elevations of about 3 feet and 6 feet, respectively. Given the elevation of the recorded
groundwater table and the borings proximity of Puget Sound, we anticipate that the groundwater
table will be subject to tidal fluctuations.
LABORATORY TESTING
Laboratory testing was completed on select Soil samples obtained from the borings. Laboratory
testing Included moisture contenf and grain size analyses. The results of the moisture content
tests are shown on the test pit logs enclosed In Appendix A. Grain size analysis test results are
provided in Appendix B.
Moisture Content Tests: Moisture contents of the surficial import fill encountered In TP-1 and TP-
2 ranged from about 3 to 5 percent while the underlying sandy slit to silty sand fill encountered in
TP-2 had a moisture content of about 25 percent. The native fine-grained Whidbey Formation
soils had moisture contents ranging from about 21 to 26 percent. The underlying native coarse -
grained Whidbey Formation soils had moisture contents ranging from about 6 to 18 percent.
Grain Size nalyses: Grain size analyses were completed on representative samples of the fine-
grained and coarse -grained Whidbey Formation deposits. For this project, the grain size analysis
tests were completed on that portion of the sample passing the U.S. Number 10 sieve and used
a U.S. Number 325 sieve to delineate the break between sand and fine-grained soils (silt and
clay) In accordance with the USDA Soil Textural Triangle Classification System. A summary Of
the test results and resulting USDA Soil Textural Triangle Classification are summarized In the
table below.

to thetest pit logs in Appendix A for a more detailed description of the conditions encountered at
the exploration locations.
Our evaluation also included a review of the exploration log for boring B-1 completed in Sunset
Avenue North about 40 feet north of the site by Shannon & Wilson, Inc. in 2001, Boring B-1 extended
about 51 Meet below grade. The approximate location of boring B-1 Is shown on the enclosed Site
and Exploration Plan, Figure 1. A Copy of the boring log and associated laboratory test results are
enclosed In Appendix C.
In general, the explorations encountered fill soils over native fine-grained deposits over native
coarse -grained deposits. The native silt and sand deposits are interpreted as Whidbey Formation
soils. A more detailed description of each material and soil type is presented below.
a�B Fill soils were encountered in test pits TP-1 and TP-2. Both explorations encountered
about I Y2feet of sandy gravel to gravelly sand with trace to some silt interpreted as Import pit -run
and crushed rock fills. In test pit TP-2, fill consisting of medium stiff, sandy silt to silty sand with trace
to some clay was encountered below the surficial 1 1/2feet of Import fill and extended to a depth of
about 4Y7 feet below grade.
Fine -Grained Whidbey Format!gn_22ML: Primarily fine-grained Whidbey Formation soils were
encountered at the ground surface in test pit TP-3 and below the surficial 1 Y? feet of import fill in TP-
1. In general, the soil consisted of medium stiff, sandy silt with trace to some clay and extended to
a depth of about 4Y2feet below grade. Based on our grain size analyses, the fine-grained Whidbey
Formation deposits had a USDA Soil Textural Triangle Classification of Silt Loam.
Coarse -Grained Whidbey Formation Depgs—Its: Primarily coarse -grained Whidbey Formation soils
were encountered at a depth of about 4Y. feet and extended to the total depth explored of 8 feet
below existing grade. In general, the soil consisted of medium dense sand with some silt. Based on
our grain size analyses, the coarse -grained Whidbey Formation deposits had a USDA Soil Textural
Triangle Classification ranging from Sand to Loamy Sand. Test pits TP-1 and TP-3 encountered a
3- to 4-Inch thick seam or.lense of sandy silt within the coarse -grained Whidbey Deposit at depths of
about 6 and 5Y2feet below the ground surface, respectively. This silt seam was not observed in test
pit TP-2.
Groundwater Conditions
Groundwater was not observed in the test pit explorations completed for this projec t. Due to the
fine-grained nature of the upper Whidbey Formation soils we expect that near -surface perched
groundwater may develop during periods of extended precipitation or high I . ntensity precipitation.
Boring B-1, completed In Sunset Avenue North about 40 feet north of the site, encountered
groundwater at a depth of about 23 feet at the time of drilling. A monitoring well was reportedly

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
We understand that the project Includes construction of a new single-family residence with concrete
flatwork and driveway pavement along the west and north sides of the residence. We further
understand that connection to the City stormwater system is impeded by an existing sewer main In
Sunset Avenue North and would therefore require a pumped stormwater system crossing several
adjacent private properties and the acquisition of associated permanent easements. As such,
Infiltration of site stormwater water Is currently under consideration. We understand that the design
of Infiltration systems will be completed In accordance with the City of Edmonds Bulletin # E72B
and Appendix C of the City of Edmonds Stormwater Supplement. We understand that infiltration
systems currently under consideration include permeable pavement, rain gardens, and drywells,
with drywells being the preferred system at this time.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Published Geologic Mapping
We assessed the geologic setting of the site and surrounding vicinity by reviewing the Geologic
Map of the Edmonds East and Part of the Edmonds West Quadrangles, Washington, U.S.
Geological Survey Map MF-1541, 1983. The geologic map Indicates the site and immediate
vicinity are underlain by Quaternary Whidbey Formation deposits (Qw). The Whidbey Formation
is described as typically consisting of bedded, compact, commonly oxidized, medium to coarse
grained sand with lesser amounts of silt and clay.
Soil Conditions
The subsurface exploration for this project included three test pits (TP-1 through TP-3) located In
landscape and pavement areas around the planned residence. The test pits extended
approximately 7 to 8 feet below the existing ground surface. The approximate exploration locations
are shown on the enclosed Site and Exploration Plan, Figure 1.
Soils were visually classified In general accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System.
Soils were also classified In general accordance with the USIDS Soil Textural Triangle
Classification system for correlation to design infiltration rates. Detailed, descriptive logs of the
subsurface explorations and the procedures utilized In the subsurface exploration program are
lized descriptions of subsurface soil conditions observed at the
presented In Appendix A. Genera
exploration locations are presented below. The stratification and horizontal extent of the soil types
observed in our explorations may vary between explorations. The nature and extent of variations
between the explorations may not become evident until construction. Stratification boundaries on
the exploration logs represent the approximate depth of changes In soil types, although the
transition between materials may have been gradual. If variations become apparent during
construction, It may be necessary to reevaluate the recommendations of this report. Please refer

INTRODUCTION
This report documents the surface and subsurface conditions encountered at the site and our
geotechnical engineering recommendations for surface water Infiltration for the Neuman
Residence located at 390 Sunset Avenue North In Edmonds, Washington, The project
description, site conditions, and our geotechnical conclusions and design recommendations are
presented in the text of this report. Supporting data including detailed exploration logs, field
exploration procedures, results of laboratory testing, and other supporting information are
presented as appendices.
Our geotechnical engineering scope of services for the project Included a site reconnaissance,
subsurface evaluation, laboratory testing, geotechnical analysis, and preparation of this report.
The subsurface evaluation consisted of completing three test pit explorations (designated TP-1
through TP-3) located in landscape and pavement areas around the planned residence. The test
pits extended approximately 7 to 8 feet below the existing ground surface. our evaluation also
Included a review the exploration log of a 51%foot deep geotechnical boring completed by others
in Sunset Avenue North near the site.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The site is a relatively level single-family residential lot located at 390 Sunset Avenue North In
Edmonds, Washington. Site grades appear to range from about elevation 27 to 28 feet based on
a topographic site plan provided by J.C. McDonnell Engineering. The site is bounded by the north,
south, and east by existing, developed, single-family residential properties and to the west by
Sunset Avenue North, The nearby residences do not appear to Include basements. Two sets of
BNSF railroad tracks are located on a bench at about elevation 18 feet along the west side of Sunset
Avenue North with the shoreline of Puget Sound along the western margin of the railroad corridor
at about elevation 5 feet. The site topography and nearby features are shown on the enclosed Site
and Exploration Plan, Figure 1.
Aerial Images available online through Google Earth Indicate that the site formerly supported a one-
story, single-family residence with a partial basement located in the west central portion of the
parcel. Street view images suggest that the basement floor was about 2 to 3 feet below the
surrounding site grade. At the time of our site visit, the residence had been demolished and the
majority of the site appeared to be mantled by about 1 to 1 Y2feet of import granular fill placed over
a non -woven geotextile.

Subsurface Stormwater Managementro
AASHTO/ASTM
Standards StormTech chambers are designed in accordance with Section 12.12 of the American
Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) LRFD Bridge Design Specifications.
This document establishes requirements for design of profile wall thermoplastic structures for both live
loads and permanent earth loads, Proper use of the AASHTO design method requires that load
multipliers for impact and multiple presences are applied to the AASHTO design truck (HS20) live load.
Additional factors are applied to the load and earth loads to provide the full safety factors for both live
and earth loads.
When installed in accordance with the minimum requirements specified in the StormTech installation
instructions, StormTech chambers meet or exceed the AASHTO requirements for both live load and
earth load design. StormTech chambers are also designed in accordance with ASTM F2787 "Standard
Practice for Structural Design of Thermoplastic Corrugated Wall Stormwater Collection Chambers". This
standard practice relates the AASHTO design methodology for thermoplastic pipe and applies it to
buried stormwater chambers.
Note that proper design for permanent earth loads, although often ignored by producers of other buried
plastic structures, governs safe product design and is the basis for the service life of the system.
StormTech's cutting edge materials research program and extensive product testing has established
StormTech as the leader on thermoplastic chamber design for safe, long service life installations.
StormTech chambers are produced to the requirements of the American Society of Testing Materials
(ASTM) F2418 "Standard Specification for Polypropylene (PP) Corrugated Stormwater Collection
Chambers" and ASTM F2922 "Standard Specification for Polyethylene (PE) Corrugated Stormwater
Collection Chambers". ASTM standards play an important role in establishing strict product
requirements that engineers and owners can rely upon for a high quality product on every project.
StormTech's commitment to these two standards ensures consistent high quality products, safe
structural design, and a service life in the 100-year range.

i. Remove lid from floor box frame
ii. Remove cap from inspection riser
Ill. Using a flashlight and stadia rod, measure
depth of sediment
iv. If sediment Is at, or above, 3`7(76 mm)
depth proceed to Step 2. If not proceed
to Step 3.
13) All Isolator Rows
i. Remove cover from manhole at upstream
end of Isolator Row
I[. Using a flashlight, inspect down Isolator
Row through outlet pipe
1. Follow OSHA regulations for confined
space entry if entering manhole
2. Mirrors on poles or cameras may be
used to avoid a confined space entry
Ill. If sediment is at or above the lower row of
sidewall holes [approximately 3' (76 mm)]
proceed to Step 2. It not proceed to Step 3.
Step 2) Clean out Isolator Row using the JetVac process
A) A fixed floor cleaning nozzle with rear
facing nozzle spread of 45' (1143 mm) or
more is preferable
13) Apply multiple passes of JetVac until back -
flush water is clean
C) Vacuum manhole sump as required during

guidelines.
Figure 20 — StormTech Isolator Row (not to scale)
12.3 ECCENTRIC PIPE HEADER INSPECTION
Theses guidelines do not supercede a pipe manufac-
turer's recommended I&M procedures. Consult with the
manufacturer of the pipe header system for specific I&M
procedures, Inspection of the header system should
be carried out quarterly. On sites which generate higher
levels of sediment more frequent inspections may be
necessary. Headers may be accessed through risers,
access ports or manholes. Measurement of sediment
may be taken with a stadia rod or similar device. Clean -
out of sediment should occur when the sediment volume
has reduced the storage area by 25% or the depth
of sediment has reached approximately 25% of the
diameter of the structure.
12.4 ECCENTRIC PIPE MANIFOLD MAINTENANCE
Cleanout of accumulated material should be accom-
plished by vacuum pumping the material from the head-
er. Cleanout should be accomplished during dry weath-
er. Care should be taken to avoid flushing sediments out
through the outlet pipes and into the chamber rows.
Eccentric Header Step -by -Step Maintenance
Procedures
1 . Locate manholes connected to the manifold system
2. Remove grates or covers
3. Using a stadia rod, measure the depth of sediment
4. If sediment is at a depth of about 25% pipe volume
or 25% pipe diameter proceed to step 5. If not
proceed to step 6.
5. Vacuum pump the sediment. Do not flush sediment
out inlet pipes.
6. Replace grates and covers
7. Record depth and date and schedule next inspection

to the system with the use of a flashlight. A stadia rod
may be inserted to determine the depth otsediment.
If upon visual inspection it is found that sediment has
accumulated to an average depth exceeding 3" (76 mm),
cleanout is required.
A StormTech Isolator Row should initially be inspected
immediately after completion of the site's construction.
While every effort should be made to prevent sediment
from entering the system during construction, it is during
this time that excess amounts of sediments are most
likely to enter any stormwater system. Inspection and
maintenance, if necessary, should be performed prior
to passing responsibility over to the site's owner. Once
in normal service, a StormTech Isolator Row should be
inspected bi-annually until an understanding of the sites
characteristics is developed. The site's maintenance
manager can then revise the inspection schedule based
on experience or local requirements.
12.2 ISOLATOR ROW MAINTENANCE
JetVac maintenance is recommended if sediment has
been collected to an average depth of 3' (76 mm) inside
the Isolator Row. More frequent maintenance may be
required to maintain minimum flow rates through the
Isolator Row. The JetVac process utilizes a high pressure
water nozzle to propel itself down the Isolator Row while
scouring and suspending sediments. As the nozzle is
retrieved, a wave of suspended sediments is flushed back
into the manhole for vacuuming. Most sewer and pipe
maintenance companies have vacuum/ JetVac combi-
nation vehicles. Fixed nozzles designed for culverts or
large diameter pipe cleaning are preferable. Rear facing
jets with an effective spread of at least 45' (1143 mm)
are best. The JetVac process shall only be performed
on StormTech Rows that have AASHTO class 1 woven
geotextile over the foundation stone (ADS 315ST or
equal).
