The summary must be read in complete context with our report. This report is limited to evaluation of bearing capacity, settlement, and lateral earth pressures of retained soils; and recommendations for drainage and site preparation. The retaining wall is being designed and installed by Beyond Outdoors or other sub consultants. NTI is not responsible for the design of the retaining wall, or evaluation of the retaining wall design. It is our understanding the project will include Rosetta and Outcropping stone walls to retain the soils that provide support for the existing house and deck, as well as proposed patio and seating areas. The retaining wall designer has not provided detail information on the walls, but we assume the walls will provide a gravity retaining system that does not include tie backs or grid. Retaining walls should be constructed on competent, non-organic natural soil(s) or engineered fill, as recommended within our report. Retaining wall footings may be proportioned using the maximum net allowable soil bearing pressures of 3,000 psf. The actual size of the foundations must be designed to resist sliding and overturning forces. The retaining wall designer is responsible for sizing of the foundations. Our exploration indicates topsoil extends to approximately 1 foot at project. Due to the steep slope of the lakeside hill, we could not perform borings on the slope. We estimate similar but variable depth of topsoil along the hill slope. We recommend additional evaluation during site stripping and excavation to confirm removal of unsuitable soils from below project construction. Measurable ground water could not be determined during drilling operations due to the use of mud rotary drilling techniques. Select samples obtained where moist to wet. We anticipate groundwater will be encountered approximately 24 feet below the top of the slope or near the current lake elevation. Overall, the site soils are conducive to movement of ground water both laterally and vertically. The moisture content of such soils can vary annually and per recent precipitation. Such soils and other regional dependent conditions may produce ground water entry of project excavations. We direct your attention to other report sections and appendices concerning ground water issues and subsurface drainage. Page 1 SCAiii^tO Erpelding Retaining Wall Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 Site / Project Description The proposed Retaining Walls are to be constructed for the house located on the northwest side of Pelican Lake at 50512 County Highway 9 in Rural Pelican Rapids. The existing site contains steep lakeside slope with two existing retaining walls providing support for the existing house and decks. The existing retaining walls show signs of distress and rotation near surface. It is our understanding that the existing retaining walls are to remain in place to provide lateral support during construction. 2.2 Scope of Services The purpose of this report is to present a summary of our geotechnical exploration and provide generalized opinions and recommendations regarding the soil conditions and design parameters for founding of the project. Our "scope of services" was limited to the following: 1. Explore the project subsurface by means of one (1) standard penetration boring extending to maximum depth of 51 feet, and conduct laboratory tests on representative samples to characterize the engineering and index properties of the soils. 2. Prepare a report presenting our findings from our field exploration, laboratory testing, and engineering recommendations for footing depths, allowable bearing capacity, estimated settlements, excavation, engineered fill, backfill, compaction and potential construction difficulties related to excavation, backfilling and drainage. 3.0 EXPLORATION PROGRAM RESULTS 3.1 Exploration Scope Site geotechnical drilling occurred on July 22, 2015 with individual borings advanced at the approximate location presented on the diagram within the appendices. NTI located the borings relative to existing site features, and determined the approximate elevation of the borings relative to the temporary benchmark (TBM), the finished floor slab of the existing house. The elevation of the TBM, as assigned by NTI, is 100.0 feet. We obtained elevation data from the top of the existing retaining walls to estimate the existing and finished footing elevations. 3.2 Surface Conditions The area to the north and east of the existing house is relatively level with grass cover. The site topography slopes dramatically downward towards the lake on the south side of the house. Surface drainage appears to flow south towards Pelican Lake. The elevation change between the boring and the lake surface was not measured, but is estimated to be on the order of 25 feet. Page 2 Erpelding Retaining Wall Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 3.3 Subsurface Conditions Please refer to the boring logs within the appendices for a detailed description and depths of stratum at each boring. The boreholes were backfilled abandoned using high solids bentonite or neat cement grout per state statute. Minor settlement of infill soil will occur with Owner responsible for final closure of the boreholes. The general geologic origin of retained soil samples is listed on the boring logs. The upper portion of the soil profile for each boring was sampled using auger flights and is approximate. The overall subsurface soil profile at the borings consists of approximately 1 foot of topsoil underlain by loose to very dense Outwash soils which extend to the termination depth of the borings (maximum 51 feet). The Outwash soils are comprised of sand, silty sand, sandy silt, and gravel with varying grain size, color, and unit weight. Additional comment on the evaluation of recovered soil samples is presented within the report appendices. 3.4 Ground Water Conditions The drill crew observed the borings for ground water and noted cave-in depth of borings, if any, during and at the completion of drilling activities. These observations and measurements are noted on the boring logs. Measurable ground water could not be determined during drilling operations due to the use of mud rotary drilling techniques. Select samples obtained where moist to wet. We anticipate groundwater wiil be encountered approximately 24 feet below the top of the slope or near the current lake elevation. Overall, the site soils are conducive to movement of ground water both laterally and vertically. The moisture content of such soils can vary annually and per recent precipitation. Such soils and other regional dependent conditions may produce ground water entry of project excavations. We direct your attention to other report sections and appendices concerning ground water issues and subsurface drainage. 3.5 Laboratory Test Program Our analysis and recommendations of this report are based upon our interpretation of the standard penetration resistance determined while sampling soils, hand penetrometer test results obtained during classification of retained soils, and experience with similar soils from other sites near the project. The results of such tests are summarized on the boring logs or attached test forms. Page 3 SCANNED Erpelding Retaining Wail Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 4.0 ENGINEERING REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATIONS The following recommendations are based on our present knowledge of the project. We ask that you or your design team notify us immediately if significant changes are made in project size, location or design as we would need to review our current recommendations and provide modified or different recommendations with respect to such change(s). 4.1 Project Scope We understand the project will include the construction of Rosetta and Outcropping retaining walls. The retaining walls will allow for excavation of the slope for landscaping modifications to the property which includes a patio and grass covered seating area near the lake shore rip rap. NTI has not been provided detailed information about the wall. Our assessment of settlement is estimated based on knowledge from projects using similar materials. We understand the project will include excavation of the existing slope to construct the retaining walls and establish the elevation of the patio and grass seating area. It is our understanding that the existing retaining walls will remain in place to provide support of the existing structures during construction. A slope stability analysis of the existing bank, construction excavations, and finished retaining wall system is not within the scope of this exploration, and therefore has not been provided. NTI recommends the retaining wall designer and contractor assess the stability of the slopes and the existing retaining walls during excavations. Our assessment of project soils, opinions, and report recommendations are based directly on application of estimated structural loads to site soils. 4.2 Site Preparation Project construction, as proposed, will involve removal of site soils to establish the base elevation for the proposal retaining walls. We recommend removal of all topsoil and/or any unsuitable material(s) encountered during advancement of project excavations. Our field exploration indicates removal of topsoil should result in excavations extending approximately 1 foot below existing grade. Additional excavation will be necessary to achieve frost protection of footing construction. We recommend that you oversize all earthwork improvements and excavations where fill materials are placed below foundations. The minimum excavation oversize should extend per the requirements outlined on the diagram within the report appendices. You should pump seepage from excavations continuously until the Geotechnical Engineer of Record or their designated representative determines such seepage no longer impacts the bearing soils, engineered fill system, backfill system or soils and concrete placement. The Geotechnical Engineer of Record or their designated representative should review project excavations to verify removal of unsuitable material(s) and adequate bearing support of exposed soils. All such observations should occur prior to the placement of engineering fill, or construction of footings and floor slabs. Page 4 Erpelding Retaining Wall Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 Where granular soils are present, we recommend that native soils within 12 inches of exposed grade (i.e. base of excavations) be compacted with a large vibratory roller until such materials achieve no less than 98% of the standard proctor maximum dry density (ASTM: D 698-96). However, where cohesive soils (silt and clay) are present at the base of excavations, you should not begin or implement this compactive effort without direct review and approval by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record or their designated representative. While not mandatory, excessive disturbance of existing native soils and/or localized zones with weak soils may require placement of a geotextile separation fabric for stabilization of construction (engineered fill, footing and/or floor slab construction). The Geotechnical Engineer of Record or their designated representative should determine the need for geotextile placement after observation of completed excavations. Comment and recommendations for materials and placement of geotextile are presented within the appendices. In our opinion, the non-organic sand and silty sand on-site may be re-used as engineered fill beneath the retaining waiis when such soiis are conditioned and placed as presented within this report. Any imported fill required for beneath the retaining walls should consist of "pit run" sand or "sand & gravel". Such imported fill should have 100 percent material passing the 1 'A inch sieve opening, no more than 40 percent materials passing the No. 40 U.S. Sieve opening, and no more than 10 percent material passing the No. 200 U.S. Sieve opening. All engineered fill for site corrective earthwork and for support of project footings should be tempered for moisture content and compacted to no less than 98 percent of the standard proctor maximum dry density. Engineered fill should be placed and compacted in lifts not exceeding 12 inches. 4.3 Foundations The following bearing recommendations are based on our basic understanding of the project. You should notify us of any changes made to the project size, location, design, or site grades so we can assess how such changes impact our recommendations. We assume retaining walls will not deviate from the Rosetta and Outcropping walls previously noted within this report. In our opinion, you may support the proposed Retaining Wall by founding strip footings on competent, non-organic native soils, or engineered fill, providing such construction complies with the criteria established within this report. You may design footings using a maximum net allowable soil bearing pressure of 3,000 psf. The actual size of the foundations must be designed to resist sliding and overturning forces. The retaining wall designer is responsible for sizing of the foundations. Construction should extend retaining wall footings to sufficient depth below ground surface as protection against frost action. For this project, you should extend retaining wall footing construction to a minimum of 7 feet below the exterior ground surface to protect against frost effects. Page 5 Erpelding Retaining Wall Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 Retaining walls with unbalanced earthen fill will experience lateral loading from retained soils. You may model this lateral loading as an equivalent earth pressure applied to the retaining wall providing site geometric and related conditions complies with the parameters supporting such modeling. We recommend use of the Table 3 "at-rest" equivalent fluid earth pressures for establishing lateral loading of retaining walls. Table 3: Retained Soil - Equivalent Fluid Weight / Coefficient of Friction "Active" Condition (pcf) "At Rest" Condition (pcf) "Passive" Condition (pcf) Soil TypeParameter Sand (SP, SP-SM)Unit Weight of Equivalent Fluid ^ 65 30045 Sandy Silt (ML)95 80 130 Coefficient of Friction Sand (SP, SP-SM)Friction Factor for Establishing Footing Sliding Resistance ^ 0.550 Sandy Silt (ML)0.350 1 The recommendations for equivalent fluid weight are based solely on assumed conditions with respect to sloping ground and/or surcharge loads. Design professional is cautioned that actual loads imparted to the structure will be dependent on soil conditions, site geometric considerations and surcharge loads imparted to the structure. 2 The determination of resistance to sliding determined based on multiplication of the respective coefficient of friction by the effective vertical stress occurring at the elevation of interest. 4.4 Bearing Factor of Safety and Estimate of Settlement We estimate native soils provide a nominal 3 factor of safety against localized bearing failure when construction complies with report criteria and recommendations, and you design structure footings using a maximum net allowable soil bearing capacity of 3,000psf. We also estimate that footings designed with the maximum net allowable soil bearing pressure recommendations and loaded per report assumptions may experience long term, total settlement of approximately Vz to 1 inch with the upper estimate more probable. Likewise, project footings may experience differential settlement on the order of 25 to 50 percent of total settlement with greatest movement occurring between adjacent footings of greatest load variation. Furthermore, total and differential movement of footings and floor slabs could be significantly greater than the above estimates if you support construction on frozen soils, the moisture content of the bearing soils significantly changes from insitu conditions, and snow or ice lenses are incorporated into site earthwork. Page 6 Erpelding Retaining Wall Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 4.5 Backfill & Drainage You should install subsurface drainage at the base of retaining walls to limit moisture accumulation within granular backfill behind the wall. Accumulation of moisture within soils results in increased lateral earth pressures against the wall. You should also consider placement drain tile at mid-height of the wall within the backslope of the excavation. As a general guideline, such drainage consists of a geotextile and coarse drainage encased slotted or perforated pipe extending to sump basin(s). The retaining wall designer is responsible for the location and amount of subsurface drainage needed. Backfill for retaining walls should consist of a native, coarse alluvium or "pit run" granular soil with a fine content equal to or less than 12 percent passing the No. 200 US Sieve opening (i.e. fill extending to within 2 feet of final grade). The final one and one half to two feet of exterior backfill within lawn areas should consist of topsoil. You should temper all backfill for correct moisture content and then place and compact individual lifts of exterior backfill per criteria presented within the report appendices. Placement of backfill against retaining should be performed concurrent on both sides to minimize any unplanned differential loading, rotation and/or movement of the wall system. You should maintain positive drainage during and after construction of project and eliminate ponding of water on site soils. We recommend you include provisions within construction documents for positive drainage of site. You should install sumps at critical areas around project to assist in removal of seepage and runoff from site. We present recommendations for sump construction within the appendices. 5.0 CONSTRUaiON CONSIDERATIONS 5.1 Excavation Stability Excavation depth and sidewall inclination should not exceed those specified in local, state or federal regulations. Excavations may need to be widened and sloped, or temporarily braced, to maintain or develop a safe work environment. Also, contractors should comply with local, state, and federal safety regulations including current OSHA excavation and trench safety standards. Temporary shoring must be designed in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. Page 7 Erpelding Retaining Wall Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota NTI Project No. 15-13134.100 5.2 Engineered Fill & Winter Construction The Geotechnical Engineer of Record or their designated representative should observe and evaluate excavations to verify removal of uncontrolled fills, topsoil and/or unsuitable material(s), and adequacy of bearing support of exposed soils. Such observation should occur prior to construction of foundations or placement of engineered fill supporting excavations. Engineered fill should be evaluated by above designated representative for moisture content, mechanical analysis and/or Atterberg limits prior to placement. You should temper engineered fill for correct moisture content and then place and compact individual lifts of engineered fill to criteria established within the appendices. Frozen soil should never be used as engineered fill or backfill nor should you support foundations on frozen soils. Moisture freezing within the soil matrix of fine grained and/or cohesive soils produces ice lenses. Such soils gain moisture from capillary action and, with continued growth, heave with formation of ice lenses within the soil matrix. Foundations constructed on frozen soils settle at or after thaw of ice lenses. You should protect excavations and foundations from freezing conditions or accumulation of snow, and remove frozen soils, snow, and ice from within excavations, fill section or from below proposed foundations. Replacement soils should consist of similar materials as those removed from the excavation with moisture content, placement and compaction conforming to report criteria. 5.3 Operation of Project Sumps We previously noted the importance of removal of seepage and runoff from project excavations. You should install and continuously operate sumps, temporary subsurface drainage pipe, and/or collection manifold and vacuum wells for removal of seepage and runoff from project. We present recommendations for project sumps within the appendices.

Our opinions are based on data assumed representative of the site. However, the area coverage of borings in relation to the entire project is very small. For this and other reasons, we do not warrant conditions below the depth of our borings, or that the strata logged from our borings are necessarily typical of the site. Deviations from our recommendations by plans, written specifications, or field applications shall relieve us of responsibility unless our written concurrence with such deviations has been established. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Gene Erpelding for specific application to the proposed Erpelding Retaining Wall in Rural Pelican Rapids, Minnesota. Northern Technologies, Inc. has endeavored to comply with generally accepted geotechnical engineering practice common to the local area.

We then classified the soils according to the Unified Soil Classification System (ASTM D2488). A chart describing this classification system and general notes explaining soil sampling procedures are presented within appendices attachments. The stratification depth lines between soil types on the logs are estimated based on the available data. Insitu, the transition between type(s) may be distinct or gradual in either the horizontal or vertical directions. The soil conditions have been established at our specific boring locations only. Variations in the soil stratigraphy may occur between and around the borings, with the nature and extent of such change not readily evident until exposed by excavation. These variations must be properly assessed when utilizing information presented on the boring logs. We request that you, your design team or contractors contact NTI immediately if local conditions differ from those assumed by this report, as we would need to review how such changes impact our recommendations. Such contact would also allow us to revise our recommendations as necessary to account for the changed site conditions. FIELD EXPLORATION PROCEDURES Soil Sampling - Standard Penetration Boring: Soil sampling was performed according to the procedures described by ASTM D-1586. Using this procedure, a 2 inch O.D. split barrel sampler is driven into the soil by a 140 pound weight falling 30 inches. After an initial set of six inches, the number of blows required to drive the sampler an additional 12 inches is recorded (known as the penetration resistance (i.e. "N-value") of the soil at the point of sampling. The N-value is an index of the relative density of cohesionless soils and an approximation of the consistency of cohesive soils. Soil Sampling - Power Auger Boring: The boring(s) was/were advanced with a 6 inch nominal diameter continuous flight auger. As a result, samples recovered from the boring are disturbed, and our determination of the depth, extend of various stratum and layers, and relative density or consistency of the soils is approximate. Soil Classification: Soil samples were visually and manually classified in general conformance with ASTM D-2488 as they were removed from the sampler(s). Representative fractions of soil samples were then sealed within respective containers and returned to the laboratory for further examination and verification of the field classification. In addition, select samples were submitted for laboratory tests. Individual sample information, identification of sampling methods, method of advancement of the samples and other pertinent information concerning the soil samples are presented on boring logs and related report attachments. sen General Notes DRILLING & SAMPLING SYMBOLS DEFINITION LABORATORY TEST SYMBOLS DEFINITIONSYMBOLSYMBOL Moisture content-percent of dry weight Dry Density-pounds per cubic foot Liquid and plastic limits determined in accordance with ASTM D 423 and D 424 Unconfmed compressive strength-pounds per square foot in accordance with ASTM D 2166- Continuous Sampling 2-3/8" Pipe Drill Cleanout Tube WC.S.

Note that our ground water measurements, or lack thereof, will vary depending on the time allowed for equilibrium to occur in the borings. Extended observation time was not available during the scope of the field exploration program and, therefore, ground water measurements as noted on the borings logs may or may not accurately reflect actual conditions at your site. Seasonal and yearly fluctuations of the ground water level, if any, occur. Perched ground water may be present within sand and silt lenses bedded within cohesive soil formations. Groundwater typically exists at depth within cohesive and cohesionless soils. Documentation of the local ground water surface and any perched ground water conditions at the project site would require installation of temporary piezometers and extended monitoring due to the relatively low permeability exhibited by the site soils. We have not performed such ground water evaluation due to the scope of services authorized for this project. We anticipate pumps installed within temporary sumps should control subsurface seepage from perched conditions. However, we caution such seepage from such formations and any water entry from excavations below the ground water table may be heavy and will vary based on seasonal and annual precipitation, and ground related impacts in the vicinity of the project. GEOTEXTILE FABRIC We occasionally recommend installation of a geotextile separation fabric between the native soils and the engineered fill section below project foundations, floors and/or between the clay subgrade and aggregate base of pavement construction within the body of the report. If recommended within the body of the report, it is our opinion this geotextile should consist of a non-woven, needle punched, fabric with a minimum grab tensile strength in both directions equal to or greater than 200 lbs minimum average roll value (MARV, ASTM D 4632). We recommend that the geotextile panels be oriented parallel with proposed aggregate placement activities, and occur in such a manner that the overall number of individual panels are kept to a minimum. As placed, individual panels of geotextile should have a width equal to or greater than 12 feet. We recommend that the Contractor overlap longitudinal and butt seams of adjacent panels a minimum of 18 inches with such joints oriented to follow initial construction traffic (shingles profile with traffic). PLACEMENT and COMPACTION OF ENGINEERED FILL Unless otherwise superseded within the body of the Geotechnical Exploration Report, the following criteria shall be utilized for placement of engineered fill on project. This includes, but is not limited to earthen fill placement to improve site grades, fill placed below structural footings, fiii placed interior of structure, and fiii placed as backfill of foundations. Engineered fill placed for construction, if necessary should consist of natural, non-organic, competent soils native to the project area. Such soils may include, but are not limited to gravel, sand, or clays with Unified Soil Classification System (ASTM D2488) classifications of GW, SP, SM, CL or CH. Use of silt or clayey silt as project fill will require additional review and approval of project Geotechnical Engineer of Record. Such soils have USCS classifications of ML, MH, ML-CL, MH-CH. Use of topsoil, marl, peat, other organic soils construction debris and/or other unsuitable materials as fill is not allowed. Such soils have USCS classifications of OL, OH, Pt. Engineered fill, classified as clay, should be tempered such that the moisture content at the time of placement is equal to and no more than 3 percent above the optimum content for as defined by the appropriate proctor test. Likewise, engineered fill classified as gravel or sand should be tempered such that the moisture content at the time of placement is within 3 percent of the optimum content. All engineered fill for construction should be placed in individual 8 inch maximum depth lifts. Each lift of fill should be compacted by large vibratory equipment until the in-place soil density is equal to or greater than the criteria established within the following tabulation.

Recommendations for interior fill placement and backfill of foundation walls are presented within other sections of this report. SWELLING of CLAY SOILS Swell of clay soil occurs when moderate to highly desiccated, "over consolidated", moderate to highly plastic clay absorbs moisture concurrent within removal of overburden pressure. The fat clay soils comprising the Glacial Lake Agassiz formation are generally know as to have "moderate" to "high risk" of swelling when conditions favorable for heave occur. Clay minerals are generally elongated bipolar charged particles aligned in plate like structures. Absorption of water by the clay minerals is driven, in part, by the electrical attraction between the bipolar mineral and the electrical charged water molecule. The electrical attraction at the molecular level is a fairly strong bond which forces separation of the clay particle into a stratified system of bonded clay and water. The resulting composite system has greatly increased volume as compared to the original clay minerals. Major clay minerals include Kaolinite, Holloysite, lllite. Calcium Montmorillonite, Sodium Montmorillonite, and Sodium Hectorite. Mielenz and King (1955) have noted that absorption of water by clays leads to expansion or swelling and that the magnitude of swelling varied widely depending upon the type and quantity of clay mineral present, their exchangeable ions, electrolyte content of the aqueous phase, particle-size distribution, void size and distribution, the internal structure, water content, superimposed load, and possibly other factors. Research geology professor Mr. Ralph Grim [University of Illinois] collaborates free swelling of clay minerals varied widely [referenced Table 5-10). Table 5-10 Free Swelling Data for Clay Minerals (in per cent) (After Mielenz and King, 1955) ^ Calcium Montmorillonite: Forest, Mississippi Wilson Creek Dam, Colorado Davis Dam, Arizona Osage, Wyoming (prepared from Na-Mont.) 145 95 45-85 125 Sodium Montmorillonite - Osage, Wyoming Sodium Hectorite - Hector, California 1,400 -1,600 1,600 - 2,000 lllite: Fithian, Illinois Morris, Illinois Tazewell, Virginia 115 -120 60 15 Kaolinite: Mesa Alta, New Mexico Macon, Georgia Langley, North Carolina Halloysite - Santa Rita, New Mexico 5 60 20 70 1 Ralph E. Grim, Table 5-10, Free Swelling Data for Clay Minerals, "Applied Clay Mineralogy"JUiwersity of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois, McGraw -Hill Book Company, Inc., 1962, p 248. A Mlim^ bLAiulcU As shown in referenced Table 5-10, the effective range of swell in percent varies widely from as little as 5% with Kaolinite to 2,000% with Sodium Hectorite. Of major concern, regional clay soils typically include varying concentration of montmorillonite mineral [commonly defined as smectite]. Note that defining the percent content and mineral type of clay soils calls for very costly and time intensive laboratory analysis. Such determination cannot be made through visual classification. Historically, a majority of clay soils across the Red River Valley (i.e. Sherack Deposition of Glacial Lake Agassiz Formation) have extreme low permeability on the order of 1 x 10 ® or lower cm/sec. However, this low permeability for water flow is moderated by silt and very fine sand lens bedded within the Sherack formation. Such lenses becomes wet to saturated allowing movement of ground water during periods of prolonged wet cycles [nominal 10 to 50 year cycles], allowing limited transport of aqueous minerals through the Sherack clays. This can lead to varied extent of sodium and calcium mineral exchange within the clay soil structure [through presence of gypsum]. Past observation of other projects in south Fargo suggest the most prevalent risk of heave occurs when new, lightly loaded construction occurs over a prior shelter belt [previously forested with mature cotton wood or oaks], or farm fields previously planted in alfalfa or similar deep rooting plants. Clay soils within nominal 10 to 30 feet of ground surface at such locations typically are desiccated to varying degree from moisture uptake by plant cover. Outside of above anomalies [excluding areas desiccated during seasonal construction exposure and areas immediately adjacent to silt or sand lens]. Red River Valley clay soils below nominal depth 12 to 25 feet generally experience extreme slow change in moisture content seasonally, with long term [i.e. decade level event] slight to moderate change in moisture content following cyclical drought or wet cycles common to the northern prairie. The extreme depth of clay deposit within the Red River Valley precludes construction of conventional frost foundations on other than soil having heave potential. Thus, the major means of reducing risk of heave to construction includes; isolation of lightly loaded floor slabs from more heavily loaded foundation element, allowing unhindered movement between walls / floor and any piped penetrations and, most importantly, providing continuous automated drainage of site during construction and permanent subsurface drainage of foundations and at-grade floors longterm. Lacking access to moisture, heave prone clay soils will have minimal if any volume change. fs) PROJECT SUMPS The collection, control and removal of seepage and runoff from within project excavations is critical in maintaining the bearing capacity of native soils, in-place density of engineered fill and stability of embankments at project excavations. As constructed, it is our opinion all sumps should consist of a 2 foot by 2 foot or larger plan dimension excavation(s) located adjacent to and directly exterior to the excavation oversize limit for structural engineered fill. Sump excavations should extend a minimum of 2 feet below the base of the excavation for collection of seepage and runoff. All sumps should be lined with a non-woven, needle-punched, geotextile having a grab tensile strength equal to or greater than 70 pounds per square inch (psi). A standpipe of 12 inches in diameter or larger should be centered within the sump excavation. This pipe should include sufficient openings for entry of seepage. We recommend that the standpipe extend to the ground surface to facilitate pumping during project construction. Infill within the sump area should consist of a VA to % inch clear rock placed between the standpipe and walls of the sump excavation. Pumping of sump(s) should continue until completion of the construction or until the Geotechnical Engineer of Record indicates such pumping is no longer necessary for stability of the project footings and related construction. Sumps should be abandoned per methods required by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record and per Federal, State and local governmental statutes. Discharge from sumps should be directed away from site and be disposed within storm water systems or other systems which comply with Federal, State and local governmental statute. As constructed and operated, the General Contractor should be responsible for all permits, operation and abandonment of sumps or other temporary dewatering systems.
