The Design of the Sitei Drainage System for the proposed Be'rg Residence'is based
orb the criteria established by'the City of Encinitas that no Site Runoff shall be allowed to
flow ove#the Coastal bluff, portion of the property: In order to achieve this, a sump pump
Will be constructed at fhe Westerly low end of the property above the bluff that will pump
alb of thecollected runoff from the Easterly 110 feet of the site u' to Neptune Avenue The
runoff deposited in Neptune Avenue,'flows by surface flow to Hig way 1:01 where it will not !
prodluce seepage through the bluffs or surface flow oven the bluffs.
I
The following page is a calcUlation of the 100 year surface runoff quantity to the
sump pumplocation and a calculation showing the adequacy of 4" PVC pipes to carry the
1U0 year quantity to the sump pump. The sump pump system should have two pumps
that ppeiate alternately at low flows (tu keep.them each operating occasionally) and to
operate simpltaneously at the full 100 vear flow for the required capacity. A schematic of
this system is shown on the grading plan in profile and the pump system requirements are
stated on the plan. A;planter is shownon the plan at the NorthEast corner of the site t0
provide a loeation for the bad'kflow prevention check valve and to set the outlet from the
sump pump;slightly above the exist ing street grade.

COASTAL BLUFF STABILITY
1616 NEPTUNE AVENUE
ENCINITAS, CALIFORNIA
Dear Dr. Johnsson:
This report is a follow-up to our February 21, 2002, Coastal Bluff Stability Assessment
for 1616 Neptune Avenue, specifically addressing the results of our core drilling at
1264 Neptune Avenue on March 29 and 30, 2002. As you are aware, Ms. Sue
Tanges of Southland Geotechnical represents the Bergs at 1264 Neptune Avenue,
and both Coastal and City Staff have raised the same concerns regarding deep-seated
instability for both 1264 and 1616 Neptune Avenue. As you may recall, and at your
suggestion, a group of geologists participated in a half-day site inspection on March
28, 2002, essentially covering that section of Encinitas coastline from the 700 block
of Neptune Avenue, to just north of the Grandview stairway, a total distance of
approximately 5,500 feet.
I believe the consensus of opinion from that geologic site inspection was that the
series of faults in north Encinitas are down-faulted to the north, thus exposing
progressively younger stratigraphic sections from south to north. The clay seams
exposed in the sea cliffs south of Beacons, on which three slides have moved, are
down-dropped and thus significantly below sea level north of the Beacons fault.
There are, however, a few exposed clay seams within the Eocene-age sea cliff,
generally southerly of the 1200 block of Neptune. However, in all instances, these
clay seams are extremely hard, with pocket penetrometer values significantly in

excess of 5 tsf [the pocket penetrometer could not indent the hard clay seam at its
maximum plunger value, much less penetrate the required 0.25 inch].
From our discussions with you at the conclusion of the day's geologic inspections, we
believe there was general concurrence that the potential for deep-seated slope
instability is significant for that section of coastline generally from the 700 to the 900
block of Neptune Avenue, but that, to the north of the Beacons fault, the bluffs
become progressively more stable as one continues to the north. It was also
concluded that a clay seam was exposed in the sea cliff below 1264 Neptune Avenue,
and that a deep test boring was appropriate at this location to obtain quality samples
of the Eocene sediments (including the clay seam), and to provide data for a lower-
bound stability assessment for 1616 Neptune Avenue.
- On March 29 and 30, 2002, two test borings were advanced in the front yard of 1264
Neptune Avenue, about 20 feet westerly of the eastern property line. Both borings
were advanced by Ruen Drilling, Inc. using a Christensen CS 1500 truck-mounted
coring rig, advancing a continuous core using 1'/4-inch HQ cores with 5-foot runs.
Core recovery was excellent, and a second boring was advanced 4 feet westerly of the
first boring, changing the core recovery sequence by 2'/2 feet to positively capture the
interface between adjacent 5-foot cores. Mr. Greg Spaulding, a Registered Geologist
and Certified Engineering Geologist with our firm, continuously logged both borings,
with Ms. Tanges intermittently logging the borings and Dr. Johnsson intermittently
observing the drilling operation on Friday, March 29th. Copies of the core logs are
presented in Appendix A. All of the core samples, with the exception of those tested
in the laboratory, are also still available in our San Diego office for your inspection.
A series of samples considered representative of the Eocene bedrock unit, including a
sample of the clay seam encountered at a depth of 93 feet, were tested for both
strength and index properties by Law Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. A
total of five consolidated drained direct shear tests were performed, along with three
unconfined compression tests, seven Atterberg limits, and fifteen moisture
content/dry density tests. The results of this laboratory testing are presented in
Appendix B. The test results are interesting, and in part responsible for the significant
delay in reporting the test results. All five direct shear tests, including the test on the
clay seam encountered at 93 feet, were terminated prior to failure (even the test with
Dr. Mark Johnsson May 30, 2002

the lowest overburden pressure), due to the fact that the core sample specimen-
- strength exceeded the maximum limit of the proving ring. Thus, in all instances (with
the possible exception of 132-1 at a depth of 65 to 66 feet, under a 2,000 psf
overburden pressure), the specimens exceeded the capacity of the direct shear test
apparatus. In discussions with Mr. Craft, the Principal Engineer at Law, this is a rare
occurrence, and all of the core samples tested had extremely high shear strengths.
We have plotted on Figure 1 the lower-bound results of the direct shear tests on the
15 specimens taken at five sample locations. This is an informative plot, as the
strength of any soil, when used for stability analysis, is the summation of cohesion
intercept plus overburden pressure x tangent phi. We have also plotted on Figure 1
the typical strength envelope that we routinely use to approximate the strength of the
Eocene cliff-forming units. We have also ballooned the area of interest,
approximating an 85-foot-high slope and, for this condition, it is quite obvious that
the existing soil strengths, including those of the clay seam at 93.5 feet, are in excess
of twice those used in our preliminary analyses as reported in Appendix A of the
February 21, 2002, report.
With regard to the unconfined compression tests, the unconfined compressive
strength ranged from 10,400 psf to 18,150 psf. These are important parameters for
- use in our marine erosion estimates with our Corps study. However, as a measure of
soil strength for stability analyses, the composition of the siltstone failing in
unconfined compression underestimates the true strength of the soil that would be
exhibited with full confinement. Even with no confinement, the equivalent cohesion
intercept ranges from 5,200 psf to 9,075 psf. One must still conclude that the
original soil strengths used in our February analyses significantly underestimate the
intact strength of this Eocene-age cliff-forming unit below both 1264 Neptune Avenue
and 1616 Neptune Avenue. As indicated in our February 21, 2002, report, we remain
of the opinion that using the Coastal Commission's current guidelines for
development atop coastal bluffs, the structure setback would be less than 30 feet at
both of these bluff-top lots. However, the new proposed improvements would
maintain a minimum 40-foot setback, consistent with the City of Encinitas' minimum
bluff-top setback requirements.

Since our March 28 site inspection, Mr. William Elliott has finalized his paper on the
- Eocene landsliding along the Encinitas bluffs, which he recently submitted for
publication in the 2001 Edition of the San Diego Association of Geologists Field Trip
Guide Book Series. Mr. Elliott provided us a pre-print copy of his paper, which is
presented in Appendix C. Dr. Tom Demere with the San Diego Natural History
Museum also reviewed and concurred with Mr. Elliott's work in characterizing the
coastal landsliding in northern Encinitas, which again supports the premise of
increased stability northerly of the Beacon's fault.
With regard to 1616 Neptune Avenue, we are completing our field exploratory work to
characterize the near-surface site geology this week, and anticipate submitting an
updated geotechnical report for City and Coastal Staff review next week.
We trust this information adequately addresses your concerns regarding coastal bluff
stability in northern Encinitas. If you have any questions or require additional
information, please give us a call.
Very truly yours,

ABSTRACT
Prehistoric and recent deep-seated,
rotational-slump/block-glide landsliding
along the 2 . 5-mile-long Leucadia coastline
is confined to a distance of approximately
0 . 3-mile, between two north-northeasterly
trending faults . These failures have
occurred along a black clay seam or seams ,
interbedded within the lower portions of
nearly flat-lying Middle Eocene siltstone .
A description of upper and lower sea cliff
stratigraphy, as well as faulting, provide a
basis for understanding and evaluating slope
stability along the urbanized edge of this
actively eroding coastline .
INTRODUCTION
On the afternoon of June 2 , 1996 , a
catastrophic sea cliff landslide occurred in
the rear-yards of homes located seaward from
808 through 866 Neptune Avenue , Leucadia,
San Diego County, California ( Photo 1 ) An
-- approximately 300-foot-wide , 95-foot-high,
section of sea-cliff slid onto the beach
along a train black clay seam or seams ( Photo
2 ) , interbedded within a dark gray sequence
of siltstones , claystones , and very fine-
grained sandstones . Most recently mapped by
Tan and Kennedy ( 1996 ) as the Middle Eocene
Santiago Formation, this slide-prone facies
is informally referred to herein as the
"Beacon ' s siltstone" ( Table 1 ) .
A room addition at the rear of 828 Neptune
Avenue , and the rear-yard wooden deck of an
adjacent residence ( 836-838 Neptune Avenue )
detached, disintegrated, and rode upper
Pleistocene terrace deposits and underlying
Middle Eocene lower sea cliff bedrock
sedimentary rocks ( Figure 1 , Photo 1 ) down
onto the beach below . Gray beach-sand was
"bulldozed" toward the ocean for
approximately 55 to 65 feet by slide debris
moving along the beach-level basal failure
surface ( cf .. June 2 , 1996 , photo noted in
the following paragraph ) .
Before- , during- , and after-photographs of
this event can be seen on the front cover of
the September 1996 , San Diego Association of
Geologists field trip guidebook (Elliott ,
1996 ) ; these photographs were taken on
November 3 , 1991 , June 2 , 1996 , and on June
4 , 1996 ) . Landslide repair, as of January
-- 12 , 2002 , is shown in Photo 4 .
Why did this coastal landslide occur where
it did, and not somewhere else along this
2 . 5-mile-long stretch of Leucadia coastline?
To answer this question, geologic conditions
between the South Carlsbad State Beach
parking lot and Moonlight State Beach will
be addressed first -- from an engineering
geologic and slope stability point of view .
With this background in mind, the answer to
the question should fall logically into
place in the final section on slope
stability .
GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
- Previous Work
An early account of the geology of San Diego
County included a discussion of the Leucadia
area by Ellis and Lee ( 1919, p . 53-57 ) .
Eocene strata in and around Del Mar and
Encinitas were described in some detail on
page 53 . And, on plate 3 , Eocene strata iii
the western part of San Diego County were
characterized as "Alternate beds of shale ,
sandstone , and limestone [ Delmar Formation] ,
generally capped by a massive white
sandstone [ Torrey Sandstone ] . " Nomenclature
in brackets is that of Kennedy and Moore
- - ( 1971 ) , Kennedy ( 197 5 ) .
Other geologic work of general and historic
interest has been published by Jahns ( 1954 ,
Ch * II , p . 39 , pl . 3 ) , Hertlein and Grant
( 1954 , Ch . II , p . 57-60 , fig . 1 ) , Weber
( 1963 , p . 27-29 , pl . 1 ) , Rogers ( 1966 ) , and
Kennedy ( 1973a, p . 9-1J ) A fault map ,
which included the Leucadia area, was
prepared by Hannan ( 1975 , p . 56-59 ,
including two maps ) ; a landslide hazard map,
which included the Leucadia area, was
published by Tan and Giffen ( 1995 , pl . 35D) .
South of Leucadia South of Leucadia,
Hanna ( 1926 , p . 207-215 and Geologic Map of
La Jolla Quadrangle ) mapped and named Eocene
strata in the La Jolla 15 ' quadrangle ; from
youngest to oldest , these included the :
Delmar sand, Torrey sand, and Rose Canon
shale ( all members of the La Jolla
formation ) , and the Poway conglomerate .
Kennedy and Moore ( 1971 ) redefined
Cretaceous and Eocene stratigraphic
relationships in the San Diego area and
established new formations , complete with
type sections . Subsequently, Kennedy
( 1973b, 1975 ; and Kennedy and Peterson,
1975 ) prepared and published geologic maps
covering metropolitan San Diego from Solana
Beach to Coronado and inland to Rancho
Bernardo and La Mesa .
North of Leucadia North of Leucadia,
Phillips ( 1941 , p . 34-37 and Geologic Map of
the Oceanside Quadrangle ) mapped Eocene
strata in the Oceanside 15 ' quadrangle . He
followed the stratigraphic nomenclature of
Hanna ( 1926 ) , using the Delmar sand and
Torrey sand members of the La Jolla
formation south of Batiquitos Lagoon --
which included the Leucadia coastline
sequence .
Jones ( 1959 , p . 23-50 and Figure 2 -
Geologic Map of the San Luis Rey Quadrangle )
mapped Eocene strata in the San Luis Rey 71-x'
quadrangle , north of the Leucadia coastline
sequence , and followed the same
stratigraphic nomenclature as Phillips
( 1941 ) .
Weber ( 1982 , p . 16-24 , pl . 1 ) mapped
portions of five 71-�' quadrangle maps ,
including those covering the communities of
Carlsbad, Oceanside, Vista, and San Marcos ,
where he used both La Jolla Group
nomenclature (Kennedy and Moore , 1971 , p .
713 ) and Santiago Formation nomenclature
(Woodring and Popenoe , 1945 ; Schoellhammer
and others , 1954 ) .
Moyle ( 1975 ) mapped undifferentiated Eocene
strata on Marine Corps Base Camp Joseph H .
Pendleton, following the La Jolla Group
nomenclature of Kennedy and Moore ( 1971 , p .
713 ) .
Further north, in the western Santa Ana
Mountains of eastern Orange County,
California, Woodring and Popenoe ( 1945 ) and
Schoellhammer and others ( 1954 ) named and
mapped, respectively, Eocene strata
( Santiago Formation ) that appear to be
lithologically indistinguishable from Torrey
Sandstone ( Kennedy and Moore , 1971 , p . 715-
16; Kennedy, 1975 , p . 16-18 ) in the San
Diego sequence . Woodring and Popenoe ( 1945 )
reported that , "The name Santiago formation
is proposed for the Eocene deposits of the
northwestern Santa Ana Mountains . . . Though
these Eocene deposits evidently are the
equivalent of an undetermined part of the
Eocene section in the San Diego district , a
local name for them appears to be
preferable . . . "
The Leucadia Coastline Geologic mapping
of the sea cliffs along the Leucadia
coastline , between the South Carlsbad State
Beach parking lot and Moonlight Sate Beach,
has been accomplished by Wilson ( 1972 ) ,
Eisenberg ( 1983 ) f Irwin ( 1985 , 1986 ) , Tan
( 198 6 ) , and Tan and Kennedy ( 1996 ) . See
Table 1 .
Work in Progress
It is understood that Dr . Tom Demere , and
his staff at the San Diego Natural History
Museum, are planning to document their
-- recent paleontological and stratigraphic
work in the Encinitas/Carlsbad/Oceanside
area . Publication of this effort is
expected within the next few years .
Therefore, in the paragraphs that follow,
detailed descriptions of stratigraphic
correlations and age relationships have been
left for this anticipated new work .
Sea Cliff Stratigraphy
Sea cliffs along the Leucadia shoreline can
be subdivided into an upper stratigraphic
sequence of upper Pleistocene terrace
deposits and a lower stratigraphic sequence
of Middle Eocene marine deposits . An
unconformity, representing an elevated
marine abrasion platform, separates the two
sequences .
Upper Sea Cliff Stratigraphy Upper sea
cliff stratigraphy ( above about elevation 14
to 30 feet , from north to south,
respectively, Eisenberg, 1983 , pl . 1 ) has
been mapped variously as : Lindavista
Formation (Wilson, 1972 , pls . B and C ) ; Bird
Rock terrace north of the Encinitas Beach
fault and Nestor terrace south of the
Encinitas Beach fault (Eisenberg, 1983 , pl .
1 ; Eisenberg and Abbott , 1985 , pl . 1 ) ; and
terrace deposits , Qt-1 ( Tan, 1986 , pl . 4C ;
Tan and Kennedy, 1996 , pl . 2 ) .
Terrace deposits , as described by Eisenberg
( 1983 , p . 74-87 and 97-101 ) , consist of a
basal sequence of friable laminated "beach"
sandstones and an upper sequence of friable
to compact cross-bedded to massive "dune "
sandstones .
These essentially flat-lying, upper
Pleistocene ( approximately 80 , 000 to 125 , 000
years old; Eisenberg, 1983 , p . 104-105 )
clastic, near-shore marine and non-marine
sedimentary deposits are typically composed
of brown to red-orange brown, thinly to
massively bedded and cross-bedded, poorly to
moderately consolidated, gravelly silty
sandstone .
Terrace deposits fail and retreat landward
for a variety of reasons ( some unclear ) ,
including weathering, erosion, and retreat
of underlying lower sea cliff Middle Eocene
bedrock strata in response to relentless
wave attack .
Lower Sea Cliff Stratigraphy Lower sea
cliff stratigraphy consists of Eocene
sedimentary rocks that have a rather complex
nomenclatural history . Middle Eocene strata
in northwestern San Diego County, including
Encinitas , Carlsbad and Oceanside , have
remained somewhat of a transitional orphan
child to the more well-defined and named
sequences in Del Mar - La Jolla to the south
and in the western Santa Ana Mountains to
the north . For example , compare Hanna
( 1926 ) / Kennedy ( 1975 ) with Woodring and
Popenoe ( 1945 ) / Schoellhammer and others
( 1954 ) , respectively .
As pointed out by Young and Berry ( 1981 , p .
33-35 ) , Eocene sequences are quite different
in this transitional region where strata do
not simply grade directly and conveniently
from one sequence to the other . Other
workers , for example , those noted in Table
w 1 , have similarly grappled with the problem
of identifiable/mappable units as well as
with appropriate nomenclature ..
Lower sea cliff stratigraphy between the
South Carlsbad State Beach parking lot and
Moonlight State Beach has been mapped and
identified variously by others as shown in
Table 1 . In this table , lower sea cliff
stratigraphy is divided into six groups ,
separated by four faults and one concealed
"mystery" contact .
For purposes of this discussion, the
geologic nomenclature of Wilson ( 1972 ) is
followed . The importance of this is that
the Encinitas Beach fault separates two
distinctly different geologic terranes and
physiographic terrains . North of this
fault , Santiago Formation (member B of
Wilson, 1972 ) occurs in the lower sea
cliffs , while to the south, Torrey Sandstone
� O
(of Wilson, 1972 ) is exposed in bold lower
sea cliff outcrop .
- Physiographic reflection of this lithologic
change was recorded on a late 19th century
coastal topographic survey map (U . S . Coast
and Geodetic Survey, 1887 ) . North of the
Encinitas Beach fault , closely spaced
contour lines are used to depict sea cliff
topography; to the south, short vertical
hachure marks are used to depict a sea cliff
too steep ( at a map scale of 1 "=833 ' ) to
show with contour lines .
- Distinctive differences in color have been
observed in outcrops of Santiago Formation
(member B of Wilson, 1972 ) and Torrey
Sandstone ( of Kennedy and Moore , 1971 ;
Kennedy, 1975 ) . Although exceptions do
occur, the former tends to be bluish and
greenish white and gray in color ( cool
tones ) , while the latter tends to be off-
white , tan, yellowish and orangish brown
(warm tones ) in color . Even though
generalized, similar observations , were made
and/or alluded to by Phillips ( 1941 , p . 35 )
and by Wilson ( 1972 , pl . C ) . This marked
contrast in appearance is particularly
noticeable in the field, north and south of
the Encinitas Beach fault ( Figure 1 ) .
For convenience , and to facilitate
discussion, member B of the Santiago
Formation is herein divided into five
distinctive facies and given informal names
as noted in quotes below . From north to
south, these informal stratigraphic units
are described briefly in the paragraphs that
follow . Torrey Sandstone is discussed at
the end of this section .
1 . "Grandview sandstone " Between the
South Carlsbad State Beach parking lot and
the Grandview fault (Table 1 , Figure 1 ) ,
white to light-gray, light greenish-gray,
and locally pale pink, moderately well,
consolidated, silty fine-grained sandstone
forms stark near-vertical sea cliffs . Close
inspection, shows that , thin pink- to rose-
colored lenses , and scattered dark pink- and
rose-colored claystone clasts are scattered
throughout . Bedding in this thinly to
massively bedded facies dips approximately
1 ° to 30 in northerly directions (Eisenberg ,
1983 , p . 343 ) .
Differential weathering and erosion around
small faults and fractures provide texture
and relief to the otherwise monotonous ,
approximately 2550 linear feet of cliff
face .
Irwin ( 1986 , p . 62- 64 ) reported the presence
of shark and ray teeth low in the section .
He also suggested (p . 68 ) that these
" . . . teeth also may have been reworked from
the lower deposits " .
12-
Outcrop and structural/stratigraphic
relationships suggest that the thickness is
at least 14 feet , but probably does not
exceed about 105 feet .
Beach access along this stretch of coastline
is via the Grandview public beach access
stairs , and a set of private stairs located
approximately 900 feet to the north . Except
for a lower sea cliff concrete face under
the Grandview stairs , seawalls are absent .
2 . "Jupiter siltstone " Between the
Grandview fault and the concealed "mystery"
contact ( Table 1 , Figure 1 ) , medium- to
dark-gray, greenish-gray, and black, well
consolidated, alternating layers and lenses
of silty claystone , clayey siltstone , silty
very very fine-grained sandstone , and very
very fine-grained sandy siltstone , form
cavernous and recessive near-vertical and
overhanging sea cliffs . At least two paper-
- thin to approximately 3/4-inch thick, soft ,
gray to gray-brown and olive-brown,
"rubbery" clay seams occur in the
southernmost exposures of "Jupiter
siltstone " .
Seitz ( 1983 ) reported that hundreds of
closely spaced normal faults create planes
of weakness along which weathering, erosion,
- and sea cliff retreat occur . By disrupting
bedding continuity, this intense faulting
may, at least in part , provide a limiting
factor to deep-seated slope failures -- such
as those that have occurred in "Beacon ' s
siltstone" further south .
LL Bedding planes in this thinly to moderately
bedded facies dip approximately 1 ° to 5 ° in
southerly directions (Wilson, 1972 , pl . B ;
Eisenberg, 1983 , p . 342 , pl . 3 ; Tan and
Kennedy, 1996 , pl . 2 ) . Exceptions do,
however, occur . For example , an
approximately 1/32- to 1/16-inch thick,
soft , olive-brown to gray-brown clay seam
occurs approximately 3120 feet south of the
Grandview stairs and dips approximately 2 °
to 4 ° in a north-northeasterly direction,
favorably into slope . This , and other
variations like this , are structural , and
likely result from intense faulting as
described by Seitz ( 1983 ) .
Several whole and partial clam (bivalve
mollusc ) shells and impressions were
observed at scattered localities in this
lower sea cliff outcrop .
Outcrop and structural/stratigraphic
relationships suggest that the thickness is
at least 18 to 20 feet , but probably does
not exceed about 60 .
Numerous low seawalls and private beach
access stairs characterize this
approximately 3390-foot-long stretch of
Leucadia coastline .
3 . "Promontory sandstone " Between the
concealed "mystery" contact and the Beacon ' s
fault (Table 1 , Figure 1 ) , yellow-brown to
olive- and greenish-brown, well consolidated
silty very fine-grained sandstone forms
subdued, as well as prominent corrugated
(bedding-parallel grooves and ridges ) near-
vertical sea cliffs .
Southerly from the concrete armored
promontory ( located approximately 3700 to
3900 feet south of the Grandview stairs ) ,
bedding planes in this thinly to moderately
bedded facies dip approximately 3 ° to 11 ° in
southerly directions . Differential
weathering and erosion along thin, dark,
fine-grained interbeds provide a laterally
ribbed appearance to this stretch of
coastline .
Northerly from the concrete armored
promontory exposures are rare and difficult
to find.
Fossil remains were not found .
Outcrop and structural/stratigraphic
relationships suggest that the thickness is
at least 19 to 20 feet , but probably does
not exceed about 110 feet .
Numerous low seawalls , dense vegetation, and
private beach access stairs characterize
1S
this approximately 660-foot-long stretch of
Leucadia coastline .
4 . "Beacon ' s siltstone " Between the
Beacon ' s and Seawall faults ( Table 1 , Figure
1 ) , medium- to dark-gray, greenish-gray and
black, well consolidated, alternating layers
and lenses of silty very fine-grained
sandstone, claystone, silty claystone , and
clayey very very fine-grained sandy
siltstone form near-vertical sea cliffs ( see
Figure 2 on p . 50 of Dem6r6 and Boettcher ,
1985 ) . Paper-thin to approximately one-inch
thick, soft , black, "rubbery" clay seams
( Photo 2 ) occur near the base of this unit
and provide a basal rupture surface for
prehistoric and recent rotational-
slump/block-glide landsliding .
Bedding planes in this thinly to moderately
bedded facies form an approximately east
northeasterly plunging shallow syncline
centered approximately in the middle of the
recent , June 2 , 1996 , landslide ( cf .
"Leucadia syncline" of Eisenberg, 1983 , p .
342 , pl . 3 ) . Bedding attitudes on the
northern limb dip approximately 50 to 10 ° in
an easterly to east-northeasterly direction .
While on the southern limb, bedding dips
approximately 3 ° to 70 in a northeasterly
direction .
Calcareous cementation of selected layers
and lenses , as well as " signature" flying-
saucer- and boomerang-shaped, boxwork-
decorated concretions provide horizontally
ribbed relief to this approximately 1600
-- feet long stretch of coastline ( see Figure 2
on p . 50 of Dem6re and Boettcher, 1985 ) .
Portions of this facies are richly
fossiliferous and contain well-preserved
shells of fossil marine molluscs .
As to age, Wilson ( 1972 , p . 99 ) concluded
that : "These [ fossil ] collections [ along the
sea cliffs north of Moonlight Beach { at
Beacon' s Beach } and at Evans Point { located
approximately five miles north of Beacon' s
Beach} ] both indicate an upper late Eocene
age (upper Tejon . . . ) and hence an age
correlation with the marine Mission Valley
Formation in the San Diego sequence . "
In more recent work, a gravelly
fossiliferous layer, located near the base
of this unit , was determined by Dem6r6 and
Boettcher ( 1985 ) to be about 45 to 46 . 5
million years old . Furthermore , it was
provisionally assigned to the Ardath shale
( cf .. Kennedy and Moore , 1971 ; Kennedy 197 5 )
which occurs in the La Jolla area of San
Diego .
Supported by additional field work, Dem6re
(personal communication , December 19 , 2001 )
reported that : this fossiliferous bed is now
believed to be closer to approximately 42
million years old (based on molluscs ) ,
probably a Mission Valley Formation
equivalent ( cf . Kennedy and Moore , 1971 ;
Kennedy, 1975 ) , and of late Middle Eocene
age (Walsh, and others , 1996 ) .
Outcrop and structural/stratigraphic
relationships suggest that the thickness is
at least 20 feet, but probably does not
exceed about 60 feet .
Prehistoric and recent deep-seated
rotational-slump/block-glide landsliding, as
well as recently constructed low to moderate
height seawalls characterize the
physiography of this portion of the Leucadia
coastline ( Photos 1 , 3 , and 4 ) .
5 . "Woodley sandstone" Between the
Seawall and Encinitas Beach faults ( Table 1 ,
Figure 1 ) , white to light-gray and pale
j greenish-gray to gray-brown, moderately well
consolidated, clayey and silty very fine- to
_. fine-grained sandstone forms near-vertical
to vertical sea cliffs .
Bedding inclinations in this thinly to
massively bedded and cross-bedded facies are
variable , but appear, in general , to dip
approximately 6 ° to 16 ° degrees in northerly
to westerly directions .
Fossil remains were not found .
Outcrop and structural/stratigraphic
relationships suggest that the thickness is
at least 21 feet , but probably does not
exceed about 185 feet .
Numerous low and high seawalls , as well as
private beach access stairs characterize and
almost completely cover this approximately
1100-foot-long stretch of coastline .
Precious few exposures of "Woodley
sandstone " remain .
Torrey Sandstone Between the Encinitas
Beach fault and Moonlight State Beach (Table
1 , Figure 1 ) , off-white to pale yellow-brown
and pale orange-brown, well consolidated,
silty fine- to medium-grained sandstone
forms stark and distinctly bold near-
vertical and vertical sea cliffs . Bedding
planes in this thinly to massively bedded
and cross-bedded formation are nearly flat-
lying .
Subtle differences in weathering and erosion
result in bumps and hollows which give the
sea cliff face an irregular wavy and
textured appearance .
Fossil remains were not found .
Hanna ( 1926 , p . 210 ) reported that : "The
Torrey sand has an exposed thickness between
25 and approximately 200 feet . " Wilson
( 1972 , p . 69 ) reported that : "The Torrey
Sandstone thins from south to north . . . from
a thickness of about 180 feet north of San
Elijo Lagoon to zero north of Palomar
Airport Road . "
This approximately 3900-foot-long stretch of
coastline is characterized by : scattered
discontinuous low seawalls , the Stonesteps
stairs , one set of private beach access
stairs ( approximately 1750 feet south of the
Stonesteps stairs ) , and two stretches of
riprap located within the first 950 feet
north from Moonlight State Beach .
Faulting
Numerous faults have been identified and
mapped along the Leucadia coastline by
investigators noted earlier . In addition,
Seitz ( 1983 ) made a detailed study of more
than 100 closely spaced small faults in a
portion of the "Jupiter siltstone " . From
north to south, principal faults , especially
those that juxtapose and/or separate major
portions of individual facies , are described
below .
Grandview fault The Grandview fault of
Eisenberg ( 1983 , p . 128 ) is located in the
lower sea cliffs approximately 200 feet
south of the Grandview stairs ( Figure 1 ) .
This fault strikes approximately north-
south, and dips approximately 88 ° east .
20
"Grandview sandstone" on the west is
juxtaposed with "Jupiter siltstone" on the
east (Table 1 ) .
Irwin ( 1986 , p . 62-63 , Fig . 38 ; Table 1 )
reported that his lithofacies G ( a portion
of which equals the "Jupiter siltstone " )
underlies his lithofacies H (which equals
the "Grandview sandstone" ) on the west side
of the Grandview fault . The contact was
reported to be a mostly flat (with local
relief up to about a foot or so ) , sharp,
irregular, erosional surface (p . 62- 63 ) .
This relationship is presently obscured by
approximately 5 to 7 feet of beach sand .
According to Eisenberg ( 1983 , p . 130 ) " . . .
approximately 15 feet of down-to-the-west
[apparent ] dip [ -slip] separation is
present . "
Additionally, Eisenberg ( 1983 , p . 128 ) notes
that this fault does not cut overlying upper
Pleistocene terrace deposits .
Beacon' s fault The Beacon' s fault ,
alluded to by Eisenberg ( 1983 , p . 126 ) . is
located approximately 60 feet north of the
seaward projection of the north end of the
Beacon' s Beach parking lot ( Figure 1 ) . It
was observed to strike approximately N . 5 °E . ,
and to dip approximately 75 ° west .
z1
At times when low tides and minimal beach
sand coincide, the seaward ( southerly)
extension of the Beacon ' s fault is exposed
in the abrasion platform where differential
weathering and erosion have produced a
distinct , low relief, fault-line scarp .
This fault juxtaposes "Promontory sandstone "
on the west with "Beacon' s siltstone " on the
east ( Table 1 ) .
En echelon offsets in overlying upper
Pleistocene terrace deposits suggest an
apparent down-to-the-west sense of dip-slip
separation . Therefore , by State definition
(Hart and Bryant , 1997 , p . 5 ) , the Beacon' s
fault would be classified as "Quaternary" ,
or "Potentially Active" .
Seawall fault The Seawall fault ( Figure
1 ) is located approximately 40 feet north of
the northern end of an approximately 25- to
30-foot-high seawall ( composed of
distinctive vertical concrete "H" members
which retain horizontal wood lagging ) . This
fault strikes approximately N . 20 °E . and dips
approximately 82 ° west .
The fault offsets the sharp, apparently
conformable contact of Irwin' s ( 1985 , p . 44 -
4 6 ; 1986, p . 50-52 , Figures 26 , 27 , and 33 )
lithofacies G ( a portion of which equals
"Beacon' s siltstone" ) over lithofacies F
(which equals a portion of the "Woodley
sandstone" ) with approximately 2 feet of
down-to-the-west apparent dip-slip
separation .
Because of northerly stratigraphic dip, the
"Beacon' s siltstone" thins to zero under
upper Pleistocene terrace deposits a few
feet east of the fault . In addition,
"Woodley sandstone " disappears below beach
level approximately 200 or so feet north of
the Seawall fault .
Whether or not this fault cuts overlying
upper Pleistocene terrace deposits could not
be determined .
Encinitas Beach fault The Encinitas
Beach fault of Eisenberg ( 1983 , p . 125-132 ,
pl . 1 ) , which is the same as Wilson ' s fault
"D" ( 1972 , p . 117 , pl . B ) , is located
approximately 1450 feet north of the
Stonesteps stairs ( Figure 1 ) . It was
observed to strike approximately N . 30 °E . ,
and to dip approximately 70 ° west . It
juxtaposes "Woodley sandstone" on the west
with Torrey Sandstone on the east .
Prior to recent seawall construction, this
fault was observed to cut overlying upper
Pleistocene terrace deposits with an
approximately one foot of down-to-the-west
sense of apparent dip-slip separation .
Therefore , by State definition ( Hart and
Bryant , 1997 , p . 5 ) , the Encinitas Beach
23
fault would be classified as "Quaternary" ,
or "Potentially Active" .
Moonlight Beach fault The Moonlight
Beach fault is located approximately 1700
feet south of the Stonesteps stairs ( Figure
1 ) . It was observed to strike approximately
N . 10 °E . , and to dip approximately 750 west .
Horizontal striae indicate a strike-slip
sense of separation . (This is not the same
"Moonlight Beach fault" referred to by
Eisenberg ( 1983 , p . 37 ) .
Differential weathering and erosion
associated with this fault have resulted in
a shallow cove in the otherwise nearly
straight coastline .
It was not determined whether or not the
Moonlight Beach fault cuts overlying upper
Pleistocene terrace deposits .
Concealed "Mystery" Contact
The concealed "mystery" contact ( Table 1 ,
Figure 1 ) is located along a stretch of
Leucadia coastline , which is covered with
seawalls and dense vegetation . This
approximately 140-foot-long veneered section
extends from approximately 3560 to 3700 feet
south of the Grandview stairs .
z �
For lack of better information, a subtle
break in sea cliff geomorphology, located
approximately 3590 feet south of the
Grandview stairs has been provisionally
chosen as the approximate location of the
concealed "mystery" contact . Here , this
break separates "Jupiter siltstone" on the
north from "Promontory sandstone" on the
south .
As to the nature of the "mystery" contact ,
the abundance of faulting in this area would
suggest a fault contact . On the other hand,
a conformable , or nearly conformable ,
contact is suggested by similarly gently
southerly dipping bedding on both sides of
the "mystery" contact . Additional
information will be required to resolve this
dilemma .
SLOPE STABILITY
And now, back to the question, why did the
recent landslide (Qls-r) , as well as two
prehistoric sea cliff landslides (Qls-o ) ,
occur at the locations shown on the
accompanying geologic map ( Figure 1 ) , and
not elsewhere along the coastline?
Beacon ' s fault to Seawall fault
Geologic observations of the lower sea
cliffs and the modern bedrock abrasion
platform ( temporarily exposed during recent
winter storms ) showed that the slide-prone
"Beacon' s siltstone (with its interbedded
clay seams exposed near beach-level ) is
bound by two north-northeast trending, near-
vertical faults , the Beacon' s and Seawall
faults ( Figure 1 ) .
Exposed briefly during July 1996, the lower
sea cliff exposure of the Beacon' s fault is
currently obscured by a sandy talus slope
and thick vegetation . The Seawall fault is
exposed in the lower sea cliff approximately
2550 feet north of the Stonesteps stairs as
an approximately eight-foot-wide , near-
__ vertical shear zone .
Relatively large , rotational-slump/block-
glide failures along the Leucadia coastline
have been historically confined to nearly
flat-lying "Beacon' s siltstone" exposed
between the Beacon' s and Seawall faults .
The prehistoric Beacon' s landslide ( Figure
1 , Photo 3 ) is believed to have failed along
a clay seam or seams located slightly below
beach-level . In contrast , the prehistoric
-- Seawall landslide ( Figure 1 , Photo 3 ) ,
failed along a clay seam or seams exposed a
few feet above beach-level . Photo 2 shows
an approximately one-inch thick, black,
soft, clay seam on which, or similar to
2 �
which, the prehistoric and recent landslides
occurred.
The northern end of the Seawall landslide
has continued to move over the past several
years , as evidenced by shadows cast by the
protruding lip of the seaward-creeping
clayey basal portion of the slide . More
recently, during winter 2002 , vegetation
(groundcover and brush) has slid off of the
leading edge and down onto the sandy beach
below .
Photographs of a fresh Beacon ' s landslide
head-scarp, taken by Charles Lough (personal
communication, March 28 , 2002 ) on February
20 , 1987 , show that this coastal landslide
too, continues to move -- at least
episodically . Raveling and small shallow
surficial failures occur from time to time
as a natural progression of the mass wasting
process .
- The June 2 , 1996 , landslide is currently
being mitigated with a beach-level seawall
_ and upper slope reconstruction ( Photo 4 ) .
North of Beacon ' s Fault and South of Seawall
Fault
North of the Beacon' s fault , and south of
the Seawall fault , Middle Eocene
stratigraphy in the lower sea cliffs is
noticeably different . "Promontory
sandstone" , "Jupiter siltstone" , and
"Grandview sandstone" crop out in the lower
sea cliffs north of the Beacon ' s fault ,
while "Woodley sandstone " and Torrey
Sandstone crop out in the lower sea cliffs
- south of the Seawall fault ( Table 1 , Figure
1 ) .
Although coastal landslides and slope
instability problems do occur in these
areas , they result from different geological
conditions than those noted between the
Beacon' s and Seawall faults .
For example, typical failures in these lower
sea cliff sandstones and siltstones are
characterized primarily by block falls , and
thin sea-cliff-parallel slabs that peel away
along planes of weakness ( such as fractures
and faults ) . These failures appear to vary
greatly in size and to occur relatively
randomly in both time and space . Sadly, a
young woman was killed on January 15 , 2000 ,
approximately 600 feet south of the
Stonesteps stairs when a large thin slab of
lower sea cliff Torrey Sandstone crushed her
as it fell suddenly to the beach .
Seawall Fault to Encinitas Beach Fault
Between the Seawall and Encinitas Beach
faults , a number of large (high and low)
seawalls , have been constructed to support
unstable upper and lower sea cliff
sedimentary strata . Unfortunately, three
z �
construction workers were injured (none
fatally) on April 27 , 1989 , approximately
2370 feet north of the Stonesteps stairs ,
when a sea cliff stabilization project
failed -- burying them in piles of loose
running terrace sand .
South of the Encinitas Beach Fault
South of the Encinitas Beach fault the
frequency of fractures in the lower sea
cliff Torrey Sandstone steadily decreases
( spacing increases ) over a relatively short
distance of approximately 1 , 000 feet , beyond
which the formation becomes nearly devoid of
fractures and faults , and relatively stable .
The death of the young woman described
above , however, emphasizes the importance of
the word "relatively" .
Upper sea cliff instability problems in
upper Pleistocene sandy terrace deposits
have occurred during recent years over a
distance of approximately 700 feet south of
the Encinitas Beach fault .
North of the Beacon ' s Fault Significant
historical slope instability problems have
occurred for a distance of approximately
1000 feet north of the Beacon' s fault . For
example , a large ( approximately 300-foot-
wide ) upper sea cliff terrace sand failure ,
located approximately 3580 to 3880 feet
south of the Grandview stairs , is clearly
2 Cl
distinguishable on an October 1960 , San
Diego Historical Society oblique aerial
photograph .
In addition, immediately adjacent to the
north, a set of private beach access stairs
was recently lost to what appear to be
relatively shallow slope-failures and
raveling in the upper sea cliff terrace
sands . Currently, translucent plastic
sheeting covers most of this approximately
75-foot-wide failure , and a sea wall is
being constructed at the toe of the sea
cliff .
Beyond, to the north, noticeably fewer
problems appear to be associated with the
seemingly more stable lower sea cliff
sandstones and siltstones , and the overlying
upper sea cliff upper Pleistocene sandy
terrace deposits . A notable local
exception, however, occurred on January 30 ,
1998 , during the 1997-98 El Nino Winter
storms . Approximately 93 to 153 feet south
of the Grandview stairs , an approximately 1-
to 5-foot-thick, 8+ foot-high, 60-foot-long,
block of "Promontory sandstone " broke away
from the cliff face along a coast-parallel
fracture and fell harmlessly to the beach .
LANDSLIDE PREDICTION
3c
Could large-scale coastal landsliding along
the Leucadia coastline been have been
predicted?
As to location between the Beacon' s and
Seawall faults , I believe the answer is yes .
For example , between these two faults , the
prehistoric Beacon' s and Seawall landslides
are clearly visible in the field, on
topographic maps ( U . -S . Coast and Geodetic
Survey, 1887 ; U . S . Geological Survey, 1898 ,
1968-75 ; San Diego, County of, 1975 ) , and on
older aerial photographs ( San Diego County
of, 1928-29 ; U . S . Department of
Agriculture , 1939 , 1953 ; Photo 3 , herein) .
Additionally, these prehistoric landslides
were noted by Wilson ( 1972 , pl . B ) , Tan
( 1986 , pl . 4C ) , and Tan and Kennedy ( 1996 ,
pl . 2 ) .
As to the timing of the occurrence of the
June 2 , 1996 , landslide , or any possible
future landsliding between the Beacon' s and
Seawall faults , I believe that the answer is
not likely .
At best , predicting the timing and/or
location of coastal slope failures north of
the Beacon' s fault and/or south of the
Seawall fault would likely prove to be a
difficult , if not impossible task .

The Grandview, Beacon' s, Seawall, and Encinitas Beach faults, as well
as the concealed "mystery" contact, provide logical breaks within the
lower sea cliff bedrock geology. Variables include: rock
type/structure, weathering/erosion, physiographic expression, as well
as differences in slope stability and landslide susceptibility.

Subject: Geotechnical Evaluation of Coastal Bluff Property, Proposed Single-Family
Residence, 1264 Neptune Avenue, Leucadia Area of Encinitas, California
Introduction
In accordance with your request, Southland Geotechnical Consultants has performed
a geotechnical evaluation of the subject coastal bluff property. This geotechnical
evaluation consists of a geologic evaluation of the coastal bluff property and a soils
investigation for a proposed single-family residence at the site. This report presents
a summary of our field and research studies and our conclusions and
recommendations, from a geotechnical standpoint, relative to the proposed
development.
Purpose and Scope
This report presents the results of our geotechnical evaluation (geologic
evaluation/soils investigation) of the coastal bluff property located at 1264 Neptune
Avenue in the City of Encinitas. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the
geotechnical conditions at the coastal bluff property and provide recommendations
relative to the proposed construction. The scope of our geotechnical evaluation
included the following:
- Review of aerial photographs, geologic/topographic maps, and geologic literature
pertaining to the site and vicinity. A list of the items reviewed is presented in
Appendix A.
- Geologic reconnaissance to observe the existing site conditions including the
coastal bluff and general vicinity.
- Preparation of a tape and clinometer profile of the bluff face.
- Investigation of the subsurface soil conditions by manually excavating, logging
and sampling four exploratory borings at the site.

Geotechnical analysis of the data obtained, including a computer-generated
slope stability analysis of the coastal bluff.
Preparation of this report summarizing the results of our geotechnical evaluation
of the coastal bluff property. This report includes a summary of the coastal
bluff conditions and discusses the geotechnical factors affecting the proposed
residence and provides geotechnical recommendations including allowable soil-
bearing pressure, foundation design and other design/construction
considerations.
Site Description
The subject coastal bluff property is a roughly rectangular parcel located at
1264 Neptune Avenue in the City of Encinitas (see Figure 1). The eastern property
line is located along the westerly side of the Neptune Avenue roadway. Single-family
residential developments exist on the properties to the north and south of the subject
property. The bluff-top area of the property is bounded on the west by an
approximately 70-foot high coastal bluff (see Photo 1 ). The approximate elevation of
the bluff edge is about 75 feet above sea level based on our review of the County of
San Diego 1975 orthophoto topographic map.
On November 1 , 1999, SGC representatives compiled a Site Plan (Figure 2) based on
approximate measurements of the features located on the bluff-top area at the site.
In general, the western approximately one-half of the bluff-top area slopes to the west
at an overall gradient of approximately 7 degrees. The eastern portion of the bluff-top
area at the site is relatively level. A single-story, single-family residence occupies the
south-central portion of the bluff-top area. A wood deck exists westerly of the
residence. The remainder of the bluff-top area west of the residence is vegetated with
iceplant and weeds. The bluff edge on the site is obscured by vegetative growth (see
Photo 2) and its approximate location is depicted on Figure 2.
Bluff Description
During our site visit on November 1 , 1999, a tape and clinometer profile of the coastal
bluff on the property was prepared. The results of our approximate measurements are
presented on Figure 3 (Coastal Bluff Profile). The approximately 70-foot high coastal
bluff slopes at an overall gradient of approximately 37 degrees (from the base of the
2
SGC
t
Project No. 147A42
exposed seacliff to the upper bluff edge). There is an approximately 25-foot high, near
vertical to overhanging, unvegetated, seacliff at the base of the coastal bluff. The
overlying approximately 50 vertical feet of the bluff slopes at an overall gradient of
approximately 31 degrees and is moderately vegetated with iceplant and weeds. A
wooden stairway descends the northern portion of the onsite bluff. The top of the
bluff is shown on Photo 2.
Proposed Development
We have reviewed preliminary project plans for the proposed residence (Appendix A).
It is our understanding that the existing residence will be razed and a new residence
and associated site improvements will be constructed. Site grading will consist of
excavation of soils to be removed from site. We understand that the foundations for
the proposed residence will be set back a minimum of 40 feet from the bluff edge and
anticipate that building loads will be typical for relatively light residential construction.
Subsurface Exploration
On November 1 , 1999, representatives from our firm manually excavated, logged and
sampled four exploratory borings at the approximate locations shown on Figure 2. The
borings were excavated to a maximum depth of 4 feet. Logs of the exploratory
borings are included as Figure 4. Subsequent to logging and sampling, the exploratory
borings were backfilled.
Geologic Units
Based on our review of a geologic map (Appendix A, Reference 3) and our onsite
observations, the property appears to be underlain by Eocene-aged Ardath Shale,
Quaternary-aged terrace deposits and surficial deposits consisting of beach sand,
topsoil and fill soils. The approximate limits of these units, as observed in our onsite
studies, are shown on Figure 3 and are described below.
Ardath Shale - The Eocene-aged Ardath Shale is exposed in the near-vertical
seacliff at the base of the coastal bluff and underlies the entire site at depth
(below the terrace deposits). The Ardath Shale at the site generally consisted
of a gray-brown, well-consolidated, fine sandy to slightly clayey siltstone and
silty fine sandstone.
3
SGC
Project No. 147A42
Terrace Deposits - Quaternary-aged terrace deposits comprise the majority of
the bluff face. The terrace deposits generally consisted of orange-brown to light
brown, dense, friable to slightly cemented, slightly silty fine to medium sand.
Topsoil - A thin veneer of topsoil has developed on the terrace deposits and
exists locally at the site. Topsoil was encountered in all the borings to a
maximum depth of 1 .8 feet. The topsoil is considered potentially compressible
should not be relied upon for the support of structural loads. The limits of the
topsoil are not shown on Figure 3.
Beach Deposits - A variable thickness of unconsolidated beach deposits occur
on the beach at the base of the coastal bluff. During our site visit, the beach
deposits consisted of sand. The beach deposits are subject to addition and
removal in response to storm waves and currents.
Fill Soils - Fill soils exist locally on the bluff-top area and appear to be associated
with the existing site improvements. Fill soil associated with topsoil was
encountered in boring 3 to a maximum depth of approximately 1 .3 feet.
Localized deeper areas of fill may exist on site. The fill generally consisted of
brown, dry, loose, silty fine sand with roots and organics. The limits of the
relatively minor amounts of fill soils are not shown on Figure 3. These fill soils
are considered potentially compressible and should not be relied upon for the
support of the proposed structure and other site improvements.
Geologic Structure
The Ardath Shale exposed in the seacliff at the subject property and near the subject
property, is mapped as nearly flat-lying (Appendix A, Reference 3). In the general site
vicinity, bedding in the Quaternary terrace deposits can be observed as alternating
more resistant and less resistant beds. Where observed on site and in the general site
vicinity, the terrace deposits appear to be horizontally bedded with localized cross
bedding.
Jointing of the Ardath Shale was observed in the seacliff and did not appear to extend
into the overlying terrace deposits. The major joint pattern had an attitude of
approximately N60-70E/70NW. The joints have the same general attitude of and are
part of a series of relatively minor, subparallel faults (with down-to the-northwest
separations) mapped in the site vicinity (Appendix A, Reference 3). Some faulting of
the Ardath Shale was observed, however, major out-of-slope components adverse to
4
SGC
t
Project No. 147A42
deep-seated slope stability were not observed on site. Joints, faults, or fractures were
not observed extending into the overlying terrace deposits. Indications of deep-seated
landslide features were not observed during our research studies or site visits.
Faulting
Our review of geologic literature (Appendix A) pertaining to the general site area
indicates that there are no known "active" faults on or in the immediate vicinity of the
site. An "active" fault is defined by the California Division of Mines and Geology
(CDMG) as one which has "had surface displacement within Holocene time (about the
last 11 ,000 years)" (Appendix A, Reference 5). Indications of active faulting were not
observed in the subject coastal bluff or in nearby exposures. The nearest known
active faults are the Rose Canyon fault located offshore approximately 2 miles west
of the site, the Coronado Bank fault located offshore approximately 18 miles west, and
the Elsinore fault located approximately 26 miles northeast of the site. The San
Andreas fault is located approximately 65 miles north-northeast of the site.
As previously mentioned, a series of relatively minor faults have been mapped on the
seacliff of this site and in the vicinity (Appendix A, Reference 3). These faults do not
appear to extend into and displace the overlying terrace deposits and are not
considered to be "active" faults as defined by CDMG. They are not considered to be
a constraint to site development.
Tsunami and Storm Waves
Tsunami are sea waves generated by submarine earthquakes, landslides or volcanic
action. Submarine earthquakes are common along the edge of the Pacific Ocean and
coastal areas are subject to potential inundation by tsunami. Most of the 19 tsunami
recorded on the San Diego tidal gauge (between 1854 to 1872 and 1906 to 1977)
have only been a few tenths of a meter in height (Appendix A, Reference 1 ). The
largest recorded San Diego area tidal gauge excursion (1 meter) was associated with
the tsunami of May 22, 1960 and was recorded at La Jolla (Scripps Pier) (Appendix A,
Reference 13). The tsunami was generated by a Richter magnitude 8.5 earthquake
in Chile. For comparison, the diurnal range of tides at San Diego Bay is 1 .7 meters.
The possibility of a destructive tsunami along the San Diego coastline is considered
low (Appendix A, Reference 6). However, tsunami or storm waves, in conjunction
with high tides, may erode the soils that comprise the coastal bluff face but are not
anticipated to have the potential for inundation of the bluff-top building site.

Project No. 147A42
Groundwater and Surface Water
Relatively minor groundwater seepage was observed in the seacliff at the site during
our visit on November 1 , 1999. However, no indications of groundwater seepage
were observed during our subsequent visit in May, 2000. Groundwater levels can be
expected to fluctuate with the tides, seasonal precipitation and irrigation.
Groundwater is not expected to be a constraint to construction of the proposed
residence. However, our experience indicates that near-surface groundwater
conditions can develop in areas where no such groundwater conditions previously
existed, especially in areas where a substantial increase in surface water infiltration
results from landscape irrigation or unusually heavy precipitation.
Surface water at the site appears to drain primarily towards the west. Surface water
on the bluff-face appears to occur as sheet flow towards the west. It appears that
some of the bluff-face surface-water flow has locally rilled the bluff-face soils at the
property.
Historic Research Summary
We have reviewed the literature, maps and aerial photographs of the site and general
vicinity listed in Appendix A. Following is a limited outline summary of our review
observations:
The oldest photographs we reviewed were from the 1928-29 aerial photograph
set on file at the County of San Diego. Neptune Avenue and the majority of the
existing nearby streets appear to be unpaved, dirt roads. No structures in the
immediate vicinity of the subject property were observed.
The existing residence is not apparent on the 1953 photographs.
On the 1960 topographic map, the perimeters of the existing residence and
garage are shown.
- The existing residence is apparent on the 1964 photographs and subsequent
photographs reviewed.

Coastal Bluff Retreat
The referenced property is subject to coastal bluff retreat. Mechanisms for seacliff
retreat at the site include slow abrasion and undercutting by marine erosion (wave
action) of the harder, erosion-resistant Ardath Shale exposed in the seacliff. Storm
surf and higher tides contribute to the natural process of marine erosion. Other factors
affecting the rate of retreat of a seacliff at the toe of a coastal bluff include degree of
fracturing, jointing, consolidation of sediments, steepness of slope, groundwater and
surface water conditions, vegetation or lack of, and intensity of pedestrian and animal
traffic.
In response to the landward retreat of the seacliff, the overlying coastal bluff becomes
undermined and also retreats landward. Other mechanisms contributing to bluff retreat
include failure of overhanging bedrock projections, shallow failure of oversteepened
portions of the bluff-face terrace deposits, and rilling and ravelling of the terrace
deposits. Portions of coastal bluffs are also exposed to precipitation, wind,
pedestrian/animal erosion (including foot traffic and burrowing rodents), variations in
landscape, landscape maintenance, and other activities by humans.
During our studies, we did not observe indications of deep-seated instability, such as
ancient or active landslides, on the site or adjacent properties. The terrace deposits
are friable and commonly rill and ravel in oversteepened slopes, however, they are not
known to be prone to large, deep-seated failures.
Coastal Bluff-Edge Retreat Rates
The rate and magnitude of coastal bluff retreat at a specific site are dependent on a
variety of factors, both natural and manmade. Many of these factors are ongoing
processes and historic documentation can be helpful in estimating general bluff-edge
retreat rates. However, there are other factors affecting coastal bluff retreat that
cannot be estimated from historic documentation. Such factors include future human
activities or possible extreme variations in regional weather patterns.
Detrimental changes in factors affecting bluff-edge retreat, such as misdirected
drainage, water line breaks, very heavy storm surf and/or precipitation, could increase
the rate of future erosion. However, favorable changes in the factors affecting bluff-
edge retreat could decrease the rate of future erosion. Some of these include
eliminating detrimental human activities on the bluff, proper maintenance of a bluff-
7
GC
Project No. 147A42
stabilizing vegetative cover, enhanced site drainage provisions and beach sand
replenishment.
Research studies along the San Diego coast and historic photograph and map review
are components in providing an estimation of the rate of bluff-edge retreat. We
assume that the historic retreat rate may give an indication of the future retreat rate
at a particular site. However, accurate and clear photographic and map documentation
for measuring retreat is not always available or is of fairly short time intervals so
changes may not be noticeable.
Lee and others (Appendix A, Reference 7) performed research studies of regional
historic seacliff retreat and estimated a maximum annual bluff-edge retreat rate of 0.22
to 0.33 feet per year. Over a 75-year period (assumed to be the economic lifetime of
the new construction), this equates to a conservative estimate of bluff-edge retreat of
a maximum of 16.5 to 24.8 feet. This maximum is based on research studies of
regional historic bluff retreat that includes coastal bluffs with generally favorable
conditions, as well as coastal bluffs that are affected by more adverse conditions
(highly fractured, sea caves, human activities, etc.). The estimated values of
maximum retreat are very conservative, and the actual rate of bluff retreat at the
subject property is expected to be less considering the site conditions and historic
bluff-edge retreat at the site.
Sea cave formation and subsequent collapse are localized factors in the bluff retreat
process. Indications of sea cave development were not observed at the subject
property or in the nearby vicinity during our site visit.
Our historic photograph review (Appendix A) indicates that the coastal bluff at the
subject property is generally similar in configuration in the 1929, 1953, and
subsequent photos. The location of the onsite bluff edge is also generally similar on
the photographs. The distance between the west side of the existing residence and
the bluff edge has not noticeably changed between the 1964 and subsequent aerial
photographs.
It is very difficult to predict the future and the magnitude of bluff-edge retreat that may
occur in one year, during one storm event or over the 75-year assumed economic
lifetime of the new construction. The rate of coastal bluff retreat over a particular
interval of time (day, year, decade, etc.) may vary from very little to several tenths of
a foot. However, severe erosion is generally episodic in nature and is dependent on
the intensity of storms and combined high tides (or humans' detrimental actions). It
is probable that several feet of coastal bluff-edge retreat could occur at one time or

over a short period of time. However, it is also likely that there will be periods in the
future when erosion along the coast and bluff edge is rather insignificant and
undetectable. Erosion is a naturally-occurring process that is affected by human
actions. With time, the bluff edge will retreat landward.
It is our opinion that the residence, proposed to be set back a minimum of 40 feet
from the bluff edge, will not be endangered by coastal bluff retreat over the next
75 years. However, if improvements, such as patios, fences, etc., are built nearer to
the bluff edge within this setback zone, they may in the future become undermined by
bluff-edge retreat and may need to be removed from the site.
Slope Stability Calculations
A computer-generated slope stability analysis was performed on the coastal bluff at
the site. The slope stability was analyzed using 'Janbu's Simplified Method of Slices'
with the PCSTABL 5M computer program. Groundwater was included in our slope
stability analyses. The slope stability calculations are included in Appendix B. The soil
strength parameters used in our analysis are presented below. These values are based
on laboratory test results, back-calculation, our past experience in this area, and our
professional judgement.
Soil Type Unit Weight Friction Angle Cohesion
Terrace Deposits 120.0 pcf 35 degrees 350 psf
Ardath Shale 120.0 pcf 30 degrees 950 psf
The results of the analyses (Appendix B) indicate that for the existing configuration,
the calculated factor of safety against deep-seated failure is in excess of 1 .5 (the
generally accepted standard for the geotechnical industry).

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our geotechnical evaluation of the coastal bluff at the site, it is our opinion
that the proposed residence (and the loading from this relatively light bluff-top
construction) will not adversely impact the existing coastal bluff. In addition, it is our
opinion that the proposed residence should not be affected by anticipated coastal bluff
retreat processes during its economic lifetime (assumed to be 75 years).
Slope Stability and Erosion
Our geotechnical evaluation of the present overall static stability on the subject
property indicates that the bluff is grossly stable. In its present state, the slope has
a low to moderate potential for erosion and future surficial instability. We provide the
following recommendations to help reduce erosion of the bluff and to reduce potential
for future instability of the bluff face.
Irrigation of the landscape areas on the property should be limited to the
minimum amount required to establish vegetation and maintain plant vigor. The
subject coastal bluff edge is currently moderately to well vegetated with
iceplant, grasses and weeds. At this time, it is our opinion that modifications
to the vegetation in this area should not be considered. However, if landscape
planting and/or plant removal on the westerly bluff-top area is performed, it
should be done without significantly disturbing the bluff-top soils. The surficial
stability of those portions of the bluff edge and bluff face that are not well
vegetated may be increased by planting in accordance with the
recommendations of a professional landscape company experienced with coastal
bluffs. Terracing or excavation of the bluff-face soils should be avoided.
- Drainage at the site predominantly flows towards the west. Drainage at the site
should be maintained such that accumulated surface waters discharge into non-
erosive drainage provisions that preferably discharge to the east (Neptune
Avenue roadway). Runoff at the site should not be directed over the bluff edge.
Eave gutters should be installed on the new residence and should be properly
maintained with downspouts that discharge into non-erosive drainage
provisions. Pedestrian and animal traffic (and burrowing, etc.) on the bluff face
and bluff edge should not be allowed.

Bluff-Edge Setback
Based on our understanding of the project, the foundations for the proposed residence
will be set back a minimum of 40 feet from the bluff edge. It is our opinion that the
proposed setback will safeguard the proposed residence from bluff-edge retreat during
the economic lifetime of the new construction.
Seismic Considerations
The principal considerations for most structures in southern California are damage
caused by surface rupturing of fault traces, ground shaking and seismically-induced
ground settlement or liquefaction. The possibility of damage due to ground rupture is
considered minimal since no active faults are known to cross the site. It is our opinion
that the potential for liquefaction or seismically-induced ground settlement at the bluff-
top site due to an earthquake is very low because of the dense nature of the
underlying geologic units and lack of a near-surface groundwater table.
The seismic hazard most likely to impact the site is ground shaking resulting from an
earthquake on one of the major active regional faults. The nearest known active fault
is the Rose Canyon fault located offshore approximately 2 miles west of the site. It
is estimated that a maximum earthquake on this portion of the Rose Canyon fault
(magnitude 6.5) could produce moderate to severe ground shaking at the site.
The effects of seismic shaking can be reduced by adhering to the most recent edition
of the Uniform Building Code and current design parameters of the Structural Engineers
Association of California. Based on our understanding of the onsite geotechnical
conditions, the seismic design parameters from the 1997 Uniform Building Code,
Section 1636, Tables 16-J, 16-S, 16-T and 16-U are provided below.
UBC Table 16-J - Based on our understanding of the onsite geotechnical
conditions and our review of UBC Table 16-J, the soil profile type for the
subject property is Sp ("Stiff Soil Profile").
UBC Table 16-U - Based on our review of the Active Fault Near-Source Zones
map (P-37) prepared by the California Division of Mines and Geology, the
nearest known active fault is the Rose Canyon fault zone located approximately
3.3 km to the west of the site. This fault is considered a seismic source type
B based on UBC Table 16-U.

Site Preparation
We understand that the existing improvements will be removed prior to the new
construction. The bluff-top soils near the bluff edge (within approximately 15 feet of
the edge) should not be significantly disturbed during removal activities. Debris should
not be allowed to fall down or accumulate on the bluff face. Prior to construction
activities, the proposed building area should be cleared of vegetation, demolition debris
and loose soils. Vegetation and debris should be properly disposed of off site. Holes
resulting from removal of buried obstructions (pipes, etc.) which extend below finished
site grades should be filled with properly compacted fill soils.
Removal/Recom action of Compressible Soils
The existing fill soils and topsoil are considered compressible and unsuitable for the
support of structural loads in their present condition. We recommend that the existing
fill and topsoil be removed in areas planned for structures, surface improvements or
fill placement. As encountered in our exploratory borings, these soils locally underlie
the site to varying depths. The maximum depth of these soils encountered during our
subsurface investigation was approximately 1 .8 feet below the existing ground
surface. Locally deeper areas of fill/topsoil may exist at the site. Actual depths may
vary and should be evaluated by the geotechnical consultant during removal of these
unsuitable soils. These soils are considered suitable for re-use as compacted,
structural fill provided they are free of organic material and deleterious debris.
Structural Fill Placement
Areas to receive fill and/or other surface improvements should be scarified to a
minimum depth of 6 inches, brought to near-optimum moisture conditions, and
recompacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction, based on laboratory standard
12
SGC
Project No. 147A42
ASTM D1557. Fill soils should be brought to near-optimum moisture conditions and
compacted in uniform lifts to at least 90 percent relative compaction (ASTM D1557).
The optimum lift thickness to produce a uniformly compacted fill will depend on the
size and type of construction equipment used. In general, fill should be placed in loose
lift thicknesses not exceeding 8 inches.
Foundation and Slab Recommendations
Project plans have not been finalized, however, we are assuming that the proposed
single-family residence may be supported by continuous perimeter and spread footings
with concrete slab-on-grade floors. The foundations and slabs should be designed in
accordance with structural considerations and the following recommendations. These
recommendations assume that the soils encountered during foundation excavation will
consist of medium dense to dense natural terrace deposits with a very low to low
expansion potential.
The proposed two-story structure may be supported on isolated or continuous footings
bearing at least 6 inches into firm, natural soils at a minimum depth of 18 inches
beneath the lowest adjacent grade. At this depth, footings may be designed for an
allowable soil-bearing value of 1 ,500 pounds per square foot. This value may be
increased by one-third for loads of short duration, such as wind or seismic forces.
Footings should have a minimum width of 15 inches, and reinforcement consisting of
two No. 4 rebars (one near the top and one near the bottom of each footing).
Slabs should have a minimum thickness of 4 inches and be reinforced at midheight in
the slab with No. 3 rebars at 18 inches on center each way (or No. 4 rebars at
24 inches on center each way). Slabs should be underlain by a 2-inch layer of sand
which is underlain by a 10-mil moisture barrier. The potential for slab cracking may
be lessened by careful control of water/cement ratios. The use of low slump concrete
is recommended. Appropriate curing precautions should be taken during placement of
concrete during hot weather. We recommend that a slipsheet or equivalent be used
if crack-sensitive flooring is planned directly on the concrete slab.
Footings and slabs founded in firm, natural soils may be designed for a passive lateral
bearing pressure of 350 pounds per square foot per foot of depth. A coefficient of
friction against sliding between concrete and soil of 0.35 may be assumed. These
values may be increased by one-third when considering loads of short duration, such
as wind or seismic forces.
13
SGC
L .
Project No. 147A42
Lateral Resistance and Retaining Wall Design Pressures
Lateral loads can be resisted by assuming a passive pressure of 350 psf per foot of
depth and a coefficient of friction of 0.35 between concrete and soil. The lateral
resistance may be taken as the sum of the passive and frictional resistance, provided
the passive resistance does not exceed two-thirds of the total resistance.
Cantilever (yielding) retaining walls, with horizontal backfill, may be designed for an
"active" equivalent fluid pressure of 35 pcf. Rigid (non-yielding) walls may be
designed for an "at-rest" equivalent fluid pressure of 60 pcf. These values assume
horizontal, nonexpansive, granular backfill and free-draining conditions. If walls are
surcharged by adjacent structures, the wall design should take into account the
surcharge load. Retaining wall footings should be designed in accordance with the
previous foundation recommendations.
We recommend that retaining walls be provided with appropriate drainage provisions.
Figure 5 contains a typical detail for drainage of retaining walls. The walls should be
appropriately waterproofed. Appropriate waterproofing treatments and alternative,
suitable wall drainage products are available commercially. Design of waterproofing
and its protection during construction should be performed by the project architect.
Retaining wall backfill soils should be brought to near-optimum moisture conditions and
compacted in uniform lifts by mechanical means to at least 90 percent relative
compaction (ASTM D1557). As an alternative, retaining walls may be backfilled with
gravel (see Figure 5). Care should be taken when using compaction equipment in close
proximity to retaining walls so that the walls are not damaged by excessive loading.
Plan Review - Construction Observation and Testina
Final project drawings should be reviewed by Southland Geotechnical Consultants to
check that the recommendations contained in this report have been incorporated into
the project design. The interpolated subsurface soil conditions should be checked in
the field during construction. Foundation excavation observation and field density
testing of compacted fill (including retaining wall backfill) should also be performed by
the geotechnical consultant to check that construction is in accordance with the
recommendations of this report.

Other Considerations
Figures 2 and 3 have been compiled from approximate measurements made during our
site visits and they should not be relied on for site development. Please note that the
recommendations contained herein may be revised based on modified and/or additional
information regarding the structure and improvements planned at the site. A qualified
consultant should be retained to review site conditions and assess potential site
impacts if significant erosion events or major changes in the bluff configuration are
noticed.
Limitations and Uniformity of Conditions
This geotechnical evaluation report addresses the coastal bluff conditions at the
subject property and is based on our understanding that the proposed development
consists of demolition of the existing structure and the design and construction of a
new single-family residence. The recommendations provided in this report are based
on our understanding that a single-family residence (with its relatively light loading) is
planned at the site and the foundations for the new construction will be set back a
minimum of 40 feet from the bluff edge.
This report is based on our document/photograph review and our observations of the
geologic conditions exposed in our exploratory borings and in the coastal bluff at the
site and general vicinity. This report assumes that the geologic/soils conditions do not
deviate appreciably from those observed. The recommendations of this report pertain
only to the coastal bluff property evaluated and the development as proposed. We
have not performed an evaluation of the presence of hazardous materials/
contamination at the site.
The findings of this report are valid as of this date. Changes in conditions of a
property can, however, occur with the passage of time, whether they be due to natural
processes or the work of man on this or adjacent properties. In addition, changes in
applicable or appropriate standards may occur, from legislation or the broadening of
knowledge in the fields of geotechnical engineering or geology. Hence, the findings
of this report may be invalidated wholly or in part by changes beyond our control.
Therefore, this report should not be relied upon after a period of two years without a
review by us.
If there are questions regarding the information contained herein, we should be
contacted. We will not be responsible for the interpretation by others of the
