In preparing the attached report, we performed a reconnaissance of the site, observed and logged the excavation of eight test pits, conducted two infiltration tests, and performed our engineering analyses. This report is being provided as a draft pending the results of our laboratory testing. Our final report will be issued the week of June 14 after the laboratory testing is completed, and after we have received review comments from the design team. In summary, based on the results of our study, it is our opinion the proposed truck parking improvements may be constructed as planned. The near surface conditions in the project area consist of fill comprised of poorly graded sand with silt overlying native medium stiff to stiff silt. The fill should provide suitable support for the planned pavement improvements. We conducted two infiltration tests to evaluate the feasibility of infiltrating stormwater at the site. Based on the results of our tests, the site soils have limited infiltration capacity and the suitability of infiltration would be subject to engineering feasibility. We appreciate the opportunity to be of service. Please call if you have any questions. Sincerely, DRAFT Scott D. Dinkelman, LEG Principal Engineering Geologist DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue i PanGEO, Inc.

Our scope of services included conducting a site reconnaissance, excavating eight test pits, conducting two Small Pilot Infiltration Tests, and developing the conclusions and recommendations presented in this report. This report is being provided in draft form for the preliminary use of the design team, pending the results of our laboratory testing. We will provide a final version of this report when the laboratory testing is completed. However, we do not anticipate the test results to affect the recommendations contained herein. 2.0 SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION The subject site is located at 600 Southwest 10th Avenue in Renton, Washington and is approximately as shown on Figure 1, Vicinity Map. The project site is an approximately rectangular-shaped area on the north side of the existing warehouse building at 600 Southwest 10th Avenue and comprises about 4½ acres. The project area is surrounded to the north, south, east, and west by one-story warehouse buildings. The attached Figure 2, Site and Exploration Plan shows the layout of the site. Plate 1 on the next page provides an aerial view of the site while Plate 2 on the next page provides a ground level view of the site at the time of this study. The site is currently vacant of structures and is flat, with less than five feet of elevation change across the length of the site. The north half of the site is vegetated with a thin covering of grass, while the south portion of the site is surfaced with asphalt and gravel and is being used for outdoor storage. The perimeter of the site is vegetated with alder trees. We understand it is planned to develop the site for use as truck parking with spaces for 140 WB- 40 semi-trucks with trailers along with associated driving and turning lanes. At the time of this study, it had not been determined how many trucks would use the facility on a daily basis. For pavement design purposes, we have assumed 100 truck trips per day. We understand it is planned DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 2 PanGEO, Inc. to use both concrete and asphalt pavements. The planned improvements will also include the installation of underground utilities. Surface water from the impervious surfaces will be directed to an infiltration trench below the central portion of the site. Plate 1: Aerial view of the site looking toward the north.

The test pits were excavated using a CAT 305E excavator. The approximate locations of our test pits were identified in the field relative to site features and are shown on Figure 2, Site and Exploration Plan. A geologist from PanGEO was present throughout the infiltration test program to observe the excavation, assist in sampling, and to document the soil samples obtained from the excavation and perform the tests. The relative in-situ density of cohesionless soils, or the relative consistency of fine-grained soils, was estimated from the excavating action of the excavator, probing the sidewalls of the test pits with a ½-inch diameter T-handle probe, and the stability of the test pit sidewalls. Where soil contacts were gradual or undulating, the average depth of the contact was recorded in the log. Test Pits TP-1 and TP-2 were used for infiltration testing purposes. The infiltration testing process consisted of initially excavating to about four feet below grade for testing. After the infiltration tests were completed the test pits were excavated to a maximum depth of about ten feet below grade. Details of our infiltration testing and discussion of the test results are included in Section 5 of this report. The soils were logged in general accordance with ASTM D-2487 Standard Practice for Classification of Soils for Engineering Purposes and the system summarized on Figure A-1, Terms and Symbols for Boring and Test Pit Logs. The summary test pit logs are included in Appendix A. 3.2 LABORATORY TESTING Representative soil samples have been submitted for laboratory testing, to verify or modify the field soil classification and to evaluate the general physical properties and engineering characteristics of the soil encountered. The test results are pending, and will be included in our final report. 3.2.1 Moisture Content and Grain Size Distribution Analysis Moisture content tests and grain-size distribution analysis were performed on six soil samples collected from the test pits. The tests were conducted in general accordance with ASTM D2216 Standard Test Methods for Laboratory Determination of Water (Moisture) Content of Soil and DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 4 PanGEO, Inc. Rock by Mass and ASTM D-6913 Standard Test Methods for Particle-Size Distribution (Gradation) of Soils Using Sieve Analysis. A summary of our test results is included in Appendix B of this report. 3.2.2 Cation Exchange Capacity and Organic Content Four samples were submitted to Kuo Testing Labs for cation exchange capacity (CEC) testing in accordance with EPA Laboratory Method 9081. The CEC is a calculated value that estimates of the soil’s ability to attract, retain, and exchange cation elements. It is reported in millequivalents per 100 grams of soil (meq/100g). The results of the CEC tests are discussed in Section 5.4 of this report and are provided in Appendix C. 3.2.3 Organics Content Testing Four samples were also submitted to Kuo Testing Labs to determine the percent organics content. The testing was performed in general accordance with the ASTM D-2974 Standard Test Methods for Moisture, Ash, and Organic Matter of Peat and Other Organic Soils. Section 5.5 of this report discusses the organics test results. 4.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS 4.1 SITE GEOLOGY Based on review of the Geologic Map of the Renton Quadrangle, King County, Washington (Mullineaux, 1965) the geologic units in the vicinity of the site consist of Quaternary Alluvium deposited by the Cedar River (Qac) and Quaternary Alluvium deposited by the White River (Qaw). Quaternary Alluvium deposited by the Cedar River consists of sand and gravel deposited with thin interbeds of silt, clay and peat and occurs along the edges of the Duwamish Valley. Quaternary Alluvium deposited by the White River consists of clay, silt, and sand that locally contains peat and gravel. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 5 PanGEO, Inc. 4.2 SOIL CONDITIONS For a detailed description of the subsurface conditions encountered at each exploration location, please refer to our test pit logs provided in Appendix A. The stratigraphic contacts indicated on the logs represent the approximate depth to boundaries between soil units. Actual transitions between soil units may be more gradual or occur at different elevations. The descriptions of groundwater conditions and depths are likewise approximate. The following is a generalized description of the soils encountered in the test pits. Topsoil – A surficial layer of topsoil and sod was encountered at our test pit locations. The topsoil was about six inches thick and consisted of dark brown sand with silt and organics. Fill – Below the topsoil, we encountered fill. The fill ranged from two to four feet thick and consisted of poorly graded fine to medium sand with silt and a trace of gravel. Based on the extent of the fill encountered at our exploration locations, it is likely the pavement subgrade soils will consist of fill. Quaternary Alluvium (Qaw) – Directly below the fill, we encountered medium stiff to stiff gray silt with a trace to some sand. Based on the relatively fined grained nature of this soil, we classified this soil as Quaternary Alluvium deposited by the White River. This soil was encountered to the maximum exploration depth of 10 feet below grade. Our test pits were backfilled after completion of our logging and testing. The backfill was not compacted. We recommend the backfill in the test pits be overexcavated during clearing and grading and backfilled with properly-compacted structural fill. Our subsurface descriptions are based on the conditions encountered at the time of our exploration. Soil conditions between our exploration locations may vary from those encountered. The nature and extent of variations between our exploratory locations may not become evident until construction. If variations do appear, PanGEO should be requested to reevaluate the recommendations in this report and to modify or verify them in writing prior to proceeding with earthwork and construction. 4.3 GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS Light groundwater seepage was encountered at 8 to 8½ feet below grade in all of our test pits except Test Pits TP-4, TP-5, and TP-7 located along the north side of the site. With the planned DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 6 PanGEO, Inc. improvements to be constructed at or near existing site grade, we do not anticipate that groundwater seepage will result in construction related issues. However, groundwater could be encountered in utility trenches, especially deep utilities, if planned. It should also be noted that groundwater elevations may vary depending on the season, local subsurface conditions, and other factors. Groundwater levels are normally highest during the winter and early spring (typically October through May). The planned infiltration systems will need to be set at least five feet above the wet season high groundwater elevation. We installed shallow two-inch diameter standpipe piezometers in Test Pits TP-4, TP-6, and TP-7 to allow for monitoring of groundwater levels during the wet season to allow for establishing the wet season high groundwater elevation. 5.0 INFILTRATION TESTING AND RECOMMENDATIONS Two infiltration tests were conducted in TP-1 and TP-2 at the locations indicated on the attached Figure 2. The test method and the results are discussed below. 5.1 TEST METHOD The field infiltration tests were conducted in general accordance with the procedure for Small Pilot Infiltration Test (PIT) as outlined in the King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) (King County, 2016). In general, the test consisted of the following procedure: • A test pit was excavated to the approximate design bottom of the proposed infiltration facilities with a minimum bottom area of 12 square feet. • The test pit was pre-soaked by maintaining a water level of at least 12 inches above the bottom of the pit. • After the pre-soak period, an electronic flow meter was used to monitor the amount of water needed to maintain a constant head of 12 inches for at least one hour and until at least a constant volume of water per time unit was achieved. • At the end of the constant head test, we measured the falling head infiltration rate by shutting off the water flow and recorded the drop in water level over regular time intervals for one hour or until all of the water was completely infiltrated. The field infiltration rate was calculated based on the final measured volume per time unit, and the surface area of the holes.

We used the simplified method outlined in the King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM, 2016) to estimate the maximum design infiltration rate. The simplified method equation is provided below: Idesign = Imeasured x Ftesting x Fgeometry x Fplugging (KCSWDM Eq 5-11) where, Fgeometry = 4 D/W + 0.05 (KCSWDM Eq 5-12) (where D = the depth from the bottom of the proposed facility to the maximum wet-season water table or nearest impervious layer, whichever is less, and W = width of the facility, a value between 0.25 and 1.0 should be used) The following values were used to reduce the field infiltration rate and provide a long-term design infiltration rate: Ftesting = 0.5 for large-scale testing Fgeometry = 1.0 (D=4 feet*, W=4 feet) Fplugging = 0.7 (loams and sandy loams) *To determine Fgeometry, we estimated D to be 4 feet based on an assumed infiltration system depth of four feet and used a groundwater elevation of eight feet below grade. 5.3 LONG TERM INFILTRATION RATE FOR DESIGN Table 1, below, details the infiltration data collected during the tests and the long-term design rates calculated for each tested location.

The KCSWDM does not specify a minimum infiltration rate for infiltration system design except a requirement that any ponding be drawn down with 24 hours. The infiltration system feasibility should be determined by the civil engineer. 5.4 CATION EXCHANGE CAPACITY TEST RESULTS The KCSWDM specifies that soils used for treatment and infiltration should have a CEC of greater than or equal to 5 milliequivalents per 100 grams of dry soil (meq/100g). CEC testing was performed on two representative samples from our test pits. Table 2, below, provides a summary of the CEC test results.

The testing procedure was performed in general accordance with the ASTM D2974-13 Standard Test Methods for Moisture, Ash, and Organic Matter of Peat and Other Organic Soils. Table 5, below, provides a summary of the organic material test results.

In order to protect the infiltration receptor soils from becoming clogged with sediment and/or becoming compacted during construction, we recommend the following measures be implemented during construction: • The infiltration facilities should be constructed as late in the schedule as feasible and should not be constructed until after the upstream areas are stabilized. • Heavy equipment traffic on prepared subgrades should be limited, especially during wet weather. • If fine grained sediment is deposited or tracked onto the infiltration system subgrade, it should be removed using an excavator with a grade plate, a small dozer or a vacuum truck. • The subgrade should be scarified prior to placing fill to prevent sealing of the receptor soils. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 10 PanGEO, Inc. • Structural fill and aggregate base materials should be end-dumped at the edge of the fill area and the material pushed out over the subgrade. • Grading of the infiltration galleries should be accomplished using low-impact earth- moving equipment to prevent compaction of the underlying soils. Wide tracked vehicles such as excavator, small dozers and bobcats are suggested. • The infiltration system subgrade soils should be reviewed after excavation to verify the soils encountered are as anticipated. • The infiltration system should not be brought on-line until after earthwork is completed and the site is permanently stabilized with vegetation and hardscaping. 6.0 PAVEMENT DESIGN 6.1 DESIGN PARAMETERS Our pavement analysis was performed using the 1993 AASHTO pavement design methodology. Our analysis included evaluating hot mix asphalt (HMA) and Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement sections. For the HMA pavement section, it is our opinion that the HMA may be used in conjunction with crushed surfacing base course (i.e., 1 ¼ inch minus crushed rock), or cement treated base. The principal benefit of CTB is the use of on-site soils and the reduction and possible elimination of the need for crushed rock base for pavement. We understand traffic will consist of 40-WB semi-trucks with trailers. The number of daily truck trips was not available at the time this study was prepared. Therefore, for our design we assumed 100 trucks per day. The parameters summarized in Table 4 on the next page were used in our design. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 11 PanGEO, Inc.

The recommended pavement sections will need to be revised if the anticipated truck traffic varies from our assumptions. 6.2 PAVEMENT DESIGN 6.2.1 Asphalt Pavement Sections We recommend the following minimum pavement sections be used in new asphalt paved areas: Light Traffic Areas – truck parking areas and passenger vehicle areas: • Three inches of Class ½ inch Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) over six inches crushed surfacing top/base course (CSTC/CSBC); or DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 12 PanGEO, Inc. • Three inches of Class ½ inch HMA over 12 inches cement treated base (see detailed discussion on cement treated base in Section 6.5.1) Heavy Traffic Areas – drive aisles subjected to truck traffic: • Four inches of Class ½ inch Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) over six inches crushed surfacing top/base course (CSTC/CSBC); or • Four inches of Class ½ inch HMA over 12 inches cement treated base The asphalt binder should consist of pavement grade (PG) PG64-22. 6.1.3 Portland Cement Concrete Pavements • Eight inches of Portland cement concrete (plain butt jointed) over six inches of crushed surfacing base course; or • Eight inches of Portland cement concrete (plain butt jointed) over 12 inches of cement treated base. The design is based on using concrete that will achieve a minimum 28-day compressive strength (f’c) of 4,000 psi. The transverse joints in the pavement should be spaced 15 feet apart or less and should be in accordance with WSDOT Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction (WSDOT, 2021). 6.1.4 Subgrade Preparation Based on the conditions encountered in our test pits, the pavement subgrade will consist of existing fill comprised of poorly graded sand with silt and a trace of gravel. Site preparation for new pavement areas should begin with removal of the existing topsoil, vegetation, roots, debris, deleterious material, and unsuitable soil from the area of the proposed improvements and excavating to the design subgrade elevation, where applicable. Following the stripping operation and excavations necessary to achieve construction subgrade elevations, the ground surface where structural fill, or pavements are to be placed should be observed by PanGEO. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 13 PanGEO, Inc. The test pits for this study were backfilled with the site soils after completion of our logging and testing. The backfill was not compacted to the requirements of structural fill. The test pit locations should be identified during grading and the fill overexcavated and backfilled with properly- compacted structural fill. Proofrolling should be performed to identify soft or unstable areas. Soft or yielding areas identified during proofrolling should be moisture conditioned as needed and re-compacted in place. If the soft areas are still yielding after re-compaction, they should be overexcavated and replaced with structural fill to a depth that will provide a stable pavement base. The optional use of a geotextile subgrade stabilization fabric, such as Mirafi 600X, or an equivalent product placed directly on the overexcavated surface may help to bridge excessively unstable areas. The need for geotextile can be determined during construction, based on the actual conditions encountered, but should be included in the construction budget. Overexcavated areas should be backfilled with WSDOT 9-03.9(3) Crushed Surfacing Base Course, or WSDOT 9-03.14 (1) Gravel Borrow (WSDOT, 2021) compacted to the requirements of structural fill. The subgrade preparation should be observed by PanGEO during construction, to verify the adequacy of the prepared subgrade. 6.1.5 Construction of Cement Treated Base (CTB) If cement treated base pavement option is used, the cement treatment should be performed using Portland concrete cement. The cement should be applied at a rate of at least 10 pounds of cement per square foot of area to be treated to a depth of 12 inches. The cement treatment operation should be performed in general accordance with the following recommendations: • For every square foot of treated area, mix minimum 10 pounds of cement into the upper 12 inches of the subgrade soils. A road reclaimer/stabilizer, or similar piece of equipment, should be used to thoroughly mix the cement into the soil to the recommended treatment depth. • The treated subgrade should then be graded and compacted using a smooth-drum vibratory roller to at least 95 percent maximum dry density in accordance with ASTM D 1557, Modified Proctor. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 14 PanGEO, Inc. • Heavy truck traffic should be kept off the treated area for at least 3 days after treatment to allow the cement treated soils to cure; passenger vehicles may use the CTB treated surface two hours after its completion. 6.1.6 Placement of HMA Placement of HMA should be in accordance with Section 5-04 of the WSDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction (WSDOT, 2021). 6.1.7 Pavement Surface Drainage The pavement surface should be sloped to provide drainage of surface water to the storm drain system. Wherever possible, the grades around the perimeter of the parking log should be sloped so surface water will drain away from the pavement. Water that ponds on or adjacent to pavement surfaces could penetrate or seep under the pavement, saturate the subgrade and contribute to premature pavement deterioration. 6.1.8 Maintenance Cracking in asphalt pavement is typical and should be expected over the life of the pavement. These require routine maintenance to prevent accelerated deterioration. Accordingly, it is highly recommended to establish a maintenance program where the cracks are routinely filled as they appear beginning at about the second year of life. It is also recommended that surface fog seal coats be considered beginning at about year five and every five years after. This will help preserve the pavements, extending the pavement service life. It should be anticipated that a functional overlay will be required at between 20 and 30 years. 7.0 EARTHWORK CONSIDERATIONS 7.1 TEMPORARY EXCAVATIONS Temporary excavations should be made in accordance with Part N of WAC (Washington Administrative Code) 296-155. The contractor is responsible for maintaining safe excavation slopes and/or shoring. It is contractor’s responsibility to maintain safe working conditions, including temporary excavation stability and, if needed, dewatering. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 15 PanGEO, Inc. Based on the encountered fill and fine grained soils underlying the project area, temporary excavations should be inclined no steeper and 1½H:1V (Horizontal:Vertical). Temporary excavations should be evaluated in the field during construction based on actual observed soil conditions. If seepage is encountered, temporary excavation slope inclinations may need to be reduced. During wet weather, the cut slopes may need to be flattened to reduce potential erosion or should be covered with plastic sheeting. 7.2 UNDERGROUND UTILITIES Underground utilities planned as part of the road improvements can be installed using conventional excavation methods. Excavations in excess of 4 feet in depth should be sloped in accordance with the recommendations in Section 8.2 of this study. 7.2.1 Pipe Support and Bedding Utility installation should be conducted in accordance with the 2021 WSDOT Standard Specifications or other applicable specifications for placement and compaction of pipe bedding and backfill. In general, pipe bedding should be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 6 inches in thickness and compacted to a firm and unyielding condition. Bedding materials and thicknesses provided should be suitable for the utility system and materials installed, and in accordance with any applicable manufacturers' recommendations. Pipe bedding materials should be placed on relatively undisturbed native soil. Based on our field explorations, we anticipate relatively coarse-grained soils comprised of poorly graded gravel with cobbles. Some overexcavation and removal of cobbles should be anticipated at the pipe invert elevation to maintain a uniform grade for the utility installation. Where overexcavation is needed, additional pipe bedding should be placed to restore the grade. 7.2.2 Trench Backfill Utility trench backfill is a primary concern in reducing the potential for settlement along utility alignments, particularly in pavement areas. It is important that each section of utility line be adequately supported in the bedding material. The material should be hand tamped to ensure support is provided around the pipe haunches. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 16 PanGEO, Inc. Fill should be carefully placed and hand tamped to about 12 inches above the crown of the pipe before heavy compaction equipment is brought into use. The trench backfill should be placed in 8- to 12-inch-thick loose lifts and compacted to at least 95 percent maximum dry density, per ASTM D1557 Standard Test Methods for Laboratory Compaction Characteristics of Soil Using Modified Effort. In order to reduce the potential for damaging the utilities, heavy compaction equipment should not be permitted to operate directly over utilities until a minimum of two feet of backfill has been placed. 7.4 STRUCTURAL FILL AND COMPACTION Structural fill should be properly moisture conditioned, placed in loose, horizontal lifts less than 8 inches in thickness, and compacted to at least 95 percent maximum density, determined using ASTM D 1557 (Modified Proctor). The procedure to achieve proper density of a compacted fill depends on the size and type of compacting equipment, the number of passes, thickness of the lifts being compacted, and certain soil properties. If the excavation is constricted and limits the use of heavy equipment, smaller equipment can be used, but the lift thickness will need to be reduced to achieve the required relative compaction. Generally, loosely compacted soils are a result of poor construction technique or improper moisture content. Soils with high fines contents are particularly susceptible to becoming too wet and coarse-grained materials easily become too dry, for proper compaction. Silty or clayey soils with a moisture content too high for adequate compaction should be dried as necessary, or moisture conditioned by mixing with drier materials, or other methods. 7.5 MATERIAL REUSE The existing fill may be used as structural fill, provided earthwork is conducted during dry weather and the fill is free of topsoil and organics. If it is planned to use the existing fill as structural fill the excavated soil should be stockpiled and protected with plastic sheeting to prevent it from becoming saturated by precipitation or runoff. The native silt underlying the site will not be suitable for reuse as structural fill due to the high percent of fines and relatively high natural moisture content. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 17 PanGEO, Inc. 7.6 PERMANENT CUT AND FILL SLOPES Based on the anticipated soil that will be exposed in the planned excavation, we recommend permanent cut and fill slopes be constructed no steeper than 2H:1V (Horizontal:Vertical). Cut slopes should be observed by a qualified professional during excavation to verify that conditions are as anticipated. Supplementary recommendations can then be developed, if needed, to improve stability, including flattening of slopes or installation of surface or subsurface drains. Permanently exposed slopes should be seeded with an appropriate species of vegetation to reduce erosion and improve stability of the surficial layer of soil. 7.7 WET WEATHER CONSTRUCTION General recommendations relative to earthwork performed in wet weather or in wet conditions are presented below. The following procedures are best management practices recommended for use in wet weather construction: • Earthwork should be performed in small areas to minimize subgrade exposure to wet weather. Excavation or the removal of unsuitable soil should be followed promptly by the placement and compaction of clean structural fill. The size and type of construction equipment used may have to be limited to prevent soil disturbance. • During wet weather, the allowable fines content of the structural fill should be reduced to no more than 5 percent by weight based on the portion passing the 0.75-inch sieve. The fines should be non-plastic. • The ground surface within the construction area should be graded to promote run-off of surface water and to prevent the ponding of water. • Bales of straw and/or geotextile silt fences should be installed at strategic locations around the site to control erosion and the movement of soil. • Excavation slopes and soils stockpiled on site should be covered with plastic sheeting. 7.8 EROSION CONSIDERATIONS Surface water runoff can be controlled during construction by careful grading practices. Typically, this includes the construction of shallow, upgrade perimeter ditches or low earthen berms in DocuSign Envelope ID: 7DBCA7C0-8C41-4D51-AF13-689B38E87E3D Geotechnical Report and Infiltration Assessment Proposed Truck Parking: 600 Southwest 10th Avenue, Renton, Washington June 10, 2021 21-220 600 SW 10th Avenue Page 18 PanGEO, Inc. conjunction with silt fences to collect runoff and prevent water from entering excavations or to prevent runoff from the construction area leaving the immediate work site. Temporary erosion control may require the use of hay bales on the downhill side of the project to prevent water from leaving the site and potential storm water detention to trap sand and silt before the water is discharged to a suitable outlet. All collected water should be directed under control to a positive and permanent discharge system. Permanent control of surface water should be incorporated in the final grading design. Adequate surface gradients and drainage systems should be incorporated into the design such that surface runoff is collected and directed away from the reservoir structure to a suitable outlet. Potential issues associated with erosion may also be reduced by establishing vegetation within disturbed areas immediately following grading operations. 8.0 LIMITATIONS We have prepared this report for Elion Partners and the project design team.
