Swedish Edmonds Ambulatory Care Center
Edmonds, Washington
File No. 0822-008-00
This letter presents a summary of our geotechnical observation services for the Swedish Edmonds
Ambulatory Care Center (ACC) Phase 3 project in Edmonds, Washington. GeoEngineers, Inc.
(GeoEngineers) assumed the responsibilities of the geotechnical engineer of record for the project in
our letter dated July 1, 2014.
GeoEngineers visited the site on three occasions between January 12 and February 2, 2016 to
complete our geotechnical observations for Phase 3 of this project, which consisted of improvements
at the former emergency entrance to the hospital. While on site we observed and evaluated
preparation of footing and slab subgrade, and utility trench structural backfill. Details of our site visits,
including our observations and recommendations, were presented in our daily field reports (field
report Nos.140 to 142), which were provided to Providence Health, Sellen Construction, and the City
of Edmonds during construction.
Based on our observations, it is our opinion that the construction activities observed by GeoEngineers
were completed in accordance with our recommendations and those portions of the project plans and
specifications that pertain to our services, and there are no outstanding geotechnical issues for the
project related to the ACC building.
