Chen.
Pursuant to your request, we have preparCd a brut letter outlining the field modifications
to grading plan no. 220-G located at 430 Andrew Ave. The modifications are as follows:
-The grade around the structure shall be raised to ensure runoff from the existino
upstream travel way remains in the existing flowline in the travel way and
continues to flow away from the structure.
-A- small raised curb shall be constructed to hold the s-,rade acliacent to the
northern driveway entrance up to facilitate the above mentioned modification.
Che raised curb shall not encroach into the road«a\ casement.
-The 12' traffic grate shall be reduced to a length no less than 14% however the
grate shall NOT to be reduced in width.
These modifications have been reviewed by our office and deemed to be ill keeping with
the intent of the original design. Additionaliv. these modifications have been discussed
with the city enuineer at the City of Encinitas Engineering Department.

`-I driveway on the west, and existing residential structures on the north and east. The lot
� g
consists of a rectangular shaped parcel that slopes gently to the north and presently
f supports a two-story, wood-frame residence that appears to be supported by conventional
continuous footings with either raised wood or slab-on-grade floors. The back yard
contains several sheds and various fruit trees, planter beds and a small swimming pool.
fLandscaping around the existing residence consists of various trees and bushes. Concrete
y ' - driveways, flatwork and concrete pavers also cover relatively large p ortions of the
backyard area. The front concrete driveway covers most of the front yard and west side
f yard and connects Andrew Avenue with the adjacent private driveway.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Based upon our discussions with you and our review of a copy of the site plan provided
by Chereskin Architecture, we understand that proposed site improvements consist of a
two-story addition at the north and west sides of the existing residence and the
construction of a garage/storage shed structure and a separate storage shed in the central
portion of the lot. We anticipate that the proposed structures will be of wood-frame
construction and building loads are expected to be typical for this type of relatively light
construction. Site grading is expected to be minor.
t
SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
Subsurface conditions were explored by manually advancing three hand-auger borings to
depths of approximately 4 to 8-feet below existing site grades. The approximate
locations of the hand-auger borings are shown on the attached Plot Plan, Figure 2.
The subsurface exploration was supervised by a geologist from this office, who visually
classified the soil and formational materials, and obtained bulk and relatively undisturbed
samples for laboratory testing. The soils were visually classified according to the Unified
Soil Classification System. Classifications are shown on the attached Boring Logs,
Figures 3 and 4.
LABORATORY TESTING
r
Laboratory testing was performed on samples obtained during the subsurface exploration.
Tests performed consisted of the following:
• Dry Density/Moisture Content(ASTM: D 2216)

T-� SOIL AND GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
r 1. Geologic Setting
The subject site lies within the marine terrace commonly known as the Palomar
Terrace that is contained within the coastal plain region of northern San Diego
County, California. The.coastal plain region is characterized by numerous regressive
marine terraces of Pleistocene age that have been established above wave-cut
platforms of underlying Eocene bedrock and were formed during glacio-eustatic
changes in sea-level. The terraces extend from areas of higher elevations east of the
site and descend generally west-southwest in a"stairstep" fashion down to the present
day coastline. These marine terraces increase in age eastward. The Palomar Terrace is
the third youngest terrace after the Bird Rock and Nestor Terraces. The site area is
contained within the north central portion of the USGS Encinitas 7-1/2 minute
quadrangle.
The Palomar Terrace, a Pleistocene marine terrace, underlies the entire site. The
Scripps Formation is exposed to the north of the site within the cliffs along the
Batiquitos Lagoon and to the east and northeast within roadcut slopes. It is anticipated
Al that this formation underlies the terrace deposits at depth.
Structurally, bedding within the terrace deposits is considered to be essentially
massive. Active fault zones within the general site region include the offshore
extension of the Rose Canyon/Newport-Inglewood, Coronado Bank/Palos Verdes
/ Hills and the Elsinore, which are located approximately 3.4-miles southwest, 17.5-
E miles southwest and 27.2-miles northeast from the site,respectively.
No known or reported deep-seated landsliding is known to exist on the site. No
—� known or reported active or potentially active faults exist within the site.

2. Observed Geologic Units
0 a. Fill - A relatively hin layer ayer of fill was observed to overlie the Palomar Terrace
within the areas planned for construction. The maximum observed thickness of
fill was approximately 4-feet at Boring HA-2. It is anticipated that the fill
thickness within areas of proposed site improvements will not exceed 5-feet. In
general, the fill consisted of dark brown to brown, damp to moist, loose silty to
slightly clayey fine to medium sand. The fill is not considered to be suitable for
support of the proposed structures and will require removal and recompaction
prior to the placement of compacted fill and/or construction of settlement
sensitive site improvements
b. Terrace Deposits - The entire site is underlain by the Palomar Terrace, a
Pleistocene-age marine terrace deposit. The upper 1.5 to 2-feet of this unit was
observed to be moderately weathered and the unit consists generally of red brown,
fine to medium sand with some silt that is damp to very moist and medium dense
to dense. At depth this unit becomes orange red brown and dense to very dense.
—� 3. Groundwater
Groundwater was not encountered in the hand-auger borings. It should be noted,
-� however, that fluctuations in the amount and level of groundwater might occur due to
variations in rainfall,irrigation and other factors that may not have been evident at the
time of our field investigation.
J SEISMICITY
The site is within the seismically active southern California region. There are, however,
no known active faults located within or adjacent to the site. The La Costa Avenue fault
is mapped approximately 700-feet east of the site, however, no evidence of offset within
the last 11,000 years would indicate that this fault is not active. Active fault zones
currently mapped within the general site region include the offshore extension of the
Rose Canyon/Newport-Inglewood, offshore Coronado Bank/Palos Verdes Hills and the
Elsinore, which are located approximately 3.4-miles (5.5-kilometers) southwest, 17.5-
miles (28-kilometers) southwest and 27.2-miles (43.5-kilometers) northeast from the site,
respectively. Strong ground motion could also be expected from earthquakes occurring
along the offshore San Diego Trough, San Jacinto and San Andreas fault zones, which lie
approximately 30-miles southwest, 48-miles northeast and 60 to 70-miles northeast of the
site, respectively. The San Clemente fault, which lies approximately 50-miles southwest

of the site, as well as numerous other offshore faults could also cause se strong ground
motion.

Elsinore (Julian Segment)
(27.2-miles/43.5-kilometers NE) 7.1 5 A
SEISMIC EFFECTS
1. Ground Motions
The most significant probable earthquake to affect the pro perty would be a 7.2
magnitude earthquake on the Rose Canyon/Newport-Inglewood fault. Depiction of
L� probabilistic seismic hazard analysis utilizing a consensus of historical seismic data
and the respective regional geologic conditions that are shown on "The Revised 2002
California Probabilistic Seismic-Hazard Maps" (Reference 3), indicates that peak
ground accelerations of about 0.20 to 0.30g are possible with a 10% probability of
being exceeded in 50-years.
2. Landslidina
Review of the referenced geologic literature indicates that the subject property has no
previously mapped ancient landslide deposits. The risk of seismically induced
landsliding affecting the site is considered low due to the gently sloping topography.
3. Ground Cracks
The risk of fault surface rupture due to active faulting is considered low due to the
` absence of an active fault on site. Ground cracks due to shaking from seismic events
r in the region are possible, as with all of southern California.

4. Liquefaction
1
The risk of seismically induced liquefaction within the site is considered low due to
the lack of shallow groundwater and the relatively dense nature of the underlying
terrace deposits.
5. Tsunamis
The risk for seismically generated ocean waves to affect the site is considered low
�( due to the elevation above sea level.
t CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
l 1. General
The proposed building addition, backyard garage/storage shed and storage shed are
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint. Grading and foundation plans
should take into account the appropriate geotechnical features of the site. Assuming
that the recommendations presented in this report and good construction practices are
utilized during the design and construction, the proposed construction is not
anticipated to adversely impact the adjacent properties from a geotechnical
standpoint.
2. Seismic Parameters for Structural Design
Seismic considerations that should be used for structural design at the site include the
l: following:
a. Ground Motion— The proposed structures should be designed and constructed to
resist the effects of seismic ground motions as provided in Chapter 16, Division
IV of the 2001 California Building Code. The basis for the design is dependent on
1 and considers seismic zoning, site characteristics, occupancy, configuration,
structural system and building height.
b. Soil Profile Type — In accordance with Section 1629.3.1, Table 16-J, and the
underlying geologic conditions, a site Soil Profile of Type SD is considered
appropriate for the subject property.
c. Seismic Zone — In accordance with Section 1629.1 and Figure -
gu 16 2, the subject
site is situated within Seismic Zone 4.
HETHERINGTON ENGINEERING, INC.
,I
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
Project No. 5429.1
Log No. 9937
April 7,2006
Page 7
d. Seismic Zone Factor (z) — A Seismic Zone Factor of 0.40 is assigned based on
Table 16-I. Since the site is within Seismic Zone 4, Section 1629.4.2 requires a
Seismic Source Type and Near Source Factor.
Ce. Near-Source Factor(Na and Nv)—Based on the known active faults in the region
and distance of the faults from the site, a Seismic Source Type of B per Table 16-
U, and Near Source Factors of Na= 1.0 per Table 16-S and Nv = 1.18 per Table
16-T are provided.
f. Seismic Coefficients (Ca and Cv)—Using the Soil Profile Type and Seismic Zone
[ Factor along with Tables 16-Q and 16-R, the Seismic Coefficients Ca= 0.44 (Na)
and Cv=0.64 (Nv) are provided, or Ca=0.44 and Cv=0.76.
3. Slope Stability
[ 4 The site is gently sloping to the north and no cut or fill slopes are anticipated,
consequently, slope stability is not a design consideration.
4. Site Gradine
L
Prior to grading, the portions of the site where improvements are proposed should be
cleared of existing surface obstructions, vegetation and debris. Materials generated
during clearing should be disposed of at an approved location off-site. Holes resulting
from the removal of buried obstructions should be backfilled with compacted fill.
Old septic systems, if encountered, should be removed and backfilled in accordance
with local regulations. Within the limits of the proposed structures, the existing fill
soils and upper 1 to 2-feet of the terrace deposits should be removed down to
F L approved terrace deposits and replaced with compacted fill in order to achieve final
design finish grades. Removal depths are anticipated to extend approximately 2 to 5-
feet below the existing grade. Following removals the exposed terrace deposits
I-'--L should be scarified to a depth of 6 to 8-inches, moisture conditioned to about
optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 90-percent relative compaction.
The recommended removals and compaction should extend to at least 5-feet outside
F-L the limits of proposed site improvements where practical. Actual removal depths
should be determined in the field by the Geotechnical Consultant based on conditions
exposed during grading.
Fill should be compacted by mechanical means in uniform horizontal lifts of 6 to 8-
inches in thickness. All fill should be compacted to a minimum relative compaction

of 90-percent based upon ASTM: D -
p 1557 02. The on-site materials are suitable for
use as compacted fill provided all vegetation and debris are removed. Rock fragments
over 6-inches in dimension and other perishable or unsuitable materials should be
excluded from the fill. All grading and compaction should be observed and tested as
necessary by the Geotechnical Engineer.
5. Foundation and Slab Recommendations
The proposed two-story addition may be supported on conventional
continuous/spread footings founded at least 18-inches into compacted fill and/or
terrace deposits, should be at least 15-inches wide, and reinforced with a minimum of
_ two #4 bars, one top and one bottom. The proposed garage/storage shed and storage
l shed may be supported on conventional continuous/spread footings founded at least
l 12-inches into compacted fill and/or terrace deposits, should be at least 12-inches
wide and reinforced with a minimum of two #4 bars, one top and one bottom.
Foundations located adjacent to utility trenches should extend to below a 1:1 plane
projected upward from the bottom of the trench.
Foundations bearing as recommended may be designed for a dead plus live load
bearing value of 2000-pounds-per-square-foot. This value may be increased by one-
third for loads including wind and seismic forces. A lateral bearing value of 250-
pounds-per-square-foot per foot of depth and a coefficient of friction between
foundation soil and concrete of 0.35 may be assumed. These values assume that
footings will be poured neat against the foundation soils. Footing excavations should
be observed by the Geotechnical Consultant prior to the placement of reinforcing
steel in order to verify that they are founded in suitable bearing materials.
Slab-on-grade floors should have a minimum thickness of 4-inches (actual) and
should be reinforced with at least#3 bars spaced at 18-inches, center-to-center, in two
directions, supported on chairs so that the reinforcement is at mid-height in the slab.
Floor slabs should be underlain by a 4-inch thick layer of sand with a 10-mil visqueen
moisture barrier placed in the middle of the sand layer. Prior to placing concrete, the
slab subgrade soils should be thoroughly moistened.
1 6. Sulfate Content
L Representative samples of the on-site soils were submitted for sulfate analyses. The
results of the soluble sulfate tests per EPA 9038 method are presented on the attached
Laboratory Tests Results, Figure 5. The sulfate content of the on-site soils is
consistent with a negligible to severe sulfate exposure classification per Table 19-A-4

California Building Code. It is recommended that all concrete to be in
of the 2001
contact with soil be designed for severe sulfate exposure classification per Table 19-
A-4 of the 2001 California Building Code.
7. Retainin Walls
Retaining walls free to rotate (cantilevered walls) should be designed for an active
pressure of 35-pounds-per-cubic-foot (equivalent fluid pressure) assuming level
t j backfill consisting of onsite granular soils. Walls restrained from
should be designed for an additional uniform soils pressure of 8xH pounds ter square
foot where H is the height of the wall in feet. Any additional surcharge pressures
behind retaining walls should be added to these
should be designed in accordance with the foundation Retaining
recommendations foundations ovide
-� previously in this report for the garage/storage shed and storage shed structures.
Retaining walls should be provided with adequate drainage to prevent buildup of
hydrostatic pressure and should be adequately waterproofed. The subdrain
behind retaining walls should consist at a minimum of 4-inch diameter S hedulet 40
(or equivalent) perforated (perforations "down") PVC pipe embedded in at least 1-
cubic-foot of 3/4 inch crushed rock per lineal foot of pipe all wrapped in approved
filter fabric. Recommendations for wall waterproofing should be provided by the
Project Architect and/or Structural Engineer.
8. Retainin - Wall and Utility Trench Backfill

A. INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this report is to analyze the storm water runoff produced from the 100
year storm event of the existing and post-developed condition of the Andrew Ave.
proposed project site. The subject property is physically located at 430 Andrew Ave.,
Encinitas, California. The property is geographically located at N 33°04'00" W
117017'00".
Pre-Developed Conditions
The existing condition of the project site consists of an existing house at 430
Andrew Avenue. The house is located on the elevated south side of the lot. A private
drive servicing homes to the north runs parallel along the western property line. Slopes
from the property to the road way are steep and covered in concrete riprap. Immediately
behind the house is a concrete patio and pond. The middle portion of the lot contains
raised planter boxes with concrete hardscape between them providing walkways. A
series of metal sheds and concrete walkways makes up the middle section of the western
border. Natural vegetation and fruit trees make up the northern most portion of the lot.
The highpoint of the property occurs in the south-east corner of the property at 135.2'.
The low point of the property occurs in the north-west corner at an elevation of 101.1 .
The difference in elevation between the high and low point on the property is 34.1'. the
existing condition for drainage onsite is sheet flow from south to north. For the existing
100 year flows the property was divided into three separate drainage hydrologic sub-
basins. They are basins Al, A2, and A3. Drainage sub-basins produced peak flows of
0.26 cfs, 0.82 cfs, and 1.41 cfs.
Post- Development Conditions
The proposed development consists of the construction of a garage and storage
facility. Runoff from the proposed structure will be caught and directed over BMP area
before it leaves the site. Runoff from the rest of the property will continue to follow its
current path to leave the site. A series of area drains will collect runoff from behind the
proposed retaining wall. This runoff will then gravity flow to a discharge point on the
wall to a proposed driveway/ramp. From there the runoff will travel over designated
BMP area. The total post-development flows for area Al, A2, and A3 are 0.26 cfs, 0.85
cfs, and 1.45cfs. When compared with existing conditions, the difference in total flows
for pre-development and post-development is negligible. Therefore, no detention
structure is proposed for this development.

Methodology and Results
Introduction
The hydrologic model used to perform the hydrologic analysis presented in this report
utilizes the Ration Method (RM) equation, Q=CIA. The RM formula estimates the peak
rate of runoff based on the variables of area, runoff coefficient, and rainfall intensity.
The rainfall intensity(I)is equal to:
I= 7.44 x P6 x D""
Where:
I=Intensity(in/hr)
P6 =6-hour precipitation(inches)
D=duration(minutes—use Tc)
Using the Time of Concentration (Tc), which is the time required for a given element of
water that originates at the most remote point of the basin being analyzed to reach the
point at which the runoff from the basin is being analyzed. The RM equation determines
the storm water runoff rate (Q) for a given basin in terms of flow (typically in cubic feet
per second (cfs) but sometimes as gallons per minute (gpm)). The RM equation is as
follows:
Q=CIA
Where:
Q=flow(in cfs)
C=runoff coefficient, ratio of rainfall that produces storm water
runoff(runoff vs. infiltration/evaporation/absorption/etc)
I=average rainfall intensity for a duration equal to the Tc for the
area, in inches per hour.
A=drainage area contributing to the basin in acres.
The RM equation assumes that the storm event being analyzed delivers precipitation to
the entire basin uniformly, and therefore the peak discharge rate will occur when a
raindrop that falls at the most remote portion of the basin arrives at the point of analysis.
The RM also assumes that the fraction of rainfall that becomes runoff or the runoff
coefficient C is not affected by the storm intensity, I,or the precipitation zone number.
The hydrologic soil group classification for the site is"D". The methodology used herein
to determine Qloo is the modified rational method. The computer modeling program
utilized to perform the hydrologic analysis of the proposed project site is produced by
Advanced Engineering Software(AES2003).
The pre and post-development runoff coefficients, used to analyze the both conditions,
were determined by using weighted"C" average.
NAHydrology&Hydraulics11498 HYDRO REPORT.doc
PE#1498 9:50 AM 5/23/2006
HYDROLOGY STUDY for HAGGBLOM RESIDENCE
PE 1498
C=0.90 z(% impervious)+ Cp x(1-%impervious)
Where:
Cp = pervious surface runoff coeffcient (varies depending on soil type from
0.2 to 0.35—since analysis assumes type d soils Cp x.35)
For the proposed development the runoff coefficient utilized for the hydrologic analysis
of the project site was calculated to be 0.71, based on an impervious percentage of
64.6%. For the pre-developed condition the runoff coefficient utilized for the hydrologic
analysis of the project site was calculated to be 0.69, based on an impervious percentage
of 62.2%.
B. CONCLUSION
Based on the information and calculations contained in this report it is the professional
opinion of Pasco Engineering, Inc. that the storm drain system as proposed on the
corresponding Grading Plan will function to adequately intercept, contain and convey
QIoo to the appropriate points of discharge.

Dear Ms. Page:
In accordance with your request, we have performed a geotechnical investigation at the
subject site. Our work was performed in February through April 2006. The purpose of
our investigation was to evaluate geologic and soil conditions within the area of the
proposed building addition, new backyard garage/storage shed and storage shed and to
provide grading and foundation recommendations for these proposed structures. No
specific development plans were available for review at the time of this report. Our scope
of work included the following:
• Research and review of available plans, geologic literature and aerial photographs
pertinent to the site(see References).
• Subsurface exploration consisting of three exploratory hand-auger borings for
soil/bedrock sampling and geologic observation.
• Laboratory testing of samples obtained from the subsurface exploration.
• Engineering and geologic analysis.
• Preparation of this report providing the results of our field and laboratory work,
analyses, and our conclusions and recommendations.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The subject property is located at 430 Andrew Avenue, Encinitas, California (see
Location Map, Figure 1). The lot is bounded by Andrew Avenue on the south, a private

driveway on the west, and existing residential structures on the north and east. The lot
consists of a rectangular shaped parcel that slopes gently to the north and presently
supports a two-story, wood-frame residence that appears to be supported by conventional
continuous footings with either raised wood or slab-on-grade floors. The back yard
contains several sheds and various fruit trees, planter beds and a small swimming pool.
Landscaping around the existing residence consists of various trees and bushes. Concrete
driveways, flatwork and concrete pavers also cover relatively large portions of the
backyard area. The front concrete driveway covers most of the front yard and west side
yard and connects Andrew Avenue with the adjacent private driveway.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Based upon our discussions with you and our review of a copy of the site plan provided
by Chereskin Architecture, we understand that proposed site improvements consist of a
two-story addition at the north and west sides of the existing residence and the
construction of a garage/storage shed structure and a separate storage shed in the central
portion of the lot. We anticipate that the proposed structures will be of wood-frame
construction and building loads are expected to be typical for this type of relatively light
construction. Site grading is expected to be minor.
SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
Subsurface conditions were explored by manually advancing three hand-auger borings to
depths of approximately 4 to 8-feet below existing site grades. The approximate
locations of the hand-auger borings are shown on the attached Plot Plan, Figure 2.
The subsurface exploration was supervised by a geologist from this office, who visually
classified the soil and formational materials, and obtained bulk and relatively undisturbed
samples for laboratory testing. The soils were visually classified according to the Unified
Soil Classification System. Classifications are shown on the attached Boring Logs,
Figures 3 and 4.
LABORATORY TESTING
Laboratory testing was performed on samples obtained during the subsurface exploration.
Tests performed consisted of the following:
• Dry Density/Moisture Content(ASTM: D 2216)
• Sulfate Content(EPA 9038)

• Expansion Index(ASTM: D 4829)
• Maximum Dry Density/Optimum Moisture Content(ASTM: D 1557)
• Direct Shear(ASTM: D 3080)
Results of the dry density and moisture content determinations are presented on the
Boring Logs, Figures 3 and 4. The remaining laboratory test results are presented on the
attached Laboratory Test Results, Figure 5.
SOIL AND GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
1. Geologic Setting
The subject site lies within the marine terrace commonly known as the Palomar
Terrace that is contained within the coastal plain region of northern San Diego
County, California. The coastal plain region is characterized by numerous regressive
marine terraces of Pleistocene age that have been established above wave-cut
platforms of underlying Eocene bedrock and were formed during glacio-eustatic
changes in sea-level. The terraces extend from areas of higher elevations east of the
site and descend generally west-southwest in a"stairstep" fashion down to the present
day coastline. These marine terraces increase in age eastward. The Palomar Terrace is
the third youngest terrace after the Bird Rock and Nestor Terraces. The site area is
contained within the north central portion of the USGS Encinitas 7-1/2 minute
quadrangle.
The Palomar Terrace, a Pleistocene marine terrace, underlies the entire site. The
Scripps Formation is exposed to the north of the site within the cliffs along the
Batiquitos Lagoon and to the east and northeast within roadcut slopes. It is anticipated
that this formation underlies the terrace deposits at depth.
Structurally, bedding within the terrace deposits is considered to be essentially
massive. Active fault zones within the general site region include the offshore
extension of the Rose Canyon/Newport-Inglewood, Coronado Bank/Palos Verdes
Hills and the Elsinore, which are located approximately 3.4-miles southwest, 17.5-
miles southwest and 27.2-miles northeast from the site, respectively.
No known or reported deep-seated landsliding is known to exist on the site. No
known or reported active or potentially active faults exist within the site.

2. Observed Geologic Units
a. Fill - A relatively thin layer of fill was observed to overlie the Palomar Terrace
within the areas planned for construction. The maximum observed thickness of
fill was approximately 4-feet at Boring HA-2. It is anticipated that the fill
thickness within areas of proposed site improvements will not exceed 5-feet. In
general, the fill consisted of dark brown to brown, damp to moist, loose silty to
slightly clayey fine to medium sand. The fill is not considered to be suitable for
support of the proposed structures and will require removal and recompaction
prior to the placement of compacted fill and/or construction of settlement
sensitive site improvements
b. Terrace Deposits - The entire site is underlain by the Palomar Terrace, a
Pleistocene-age marine terrace deposit. The upper 1.5 to 2-feet of this unit was
observed to be moderately weathered and the unit consists generally of red brown,
fine to medium sand with some silt that is damp to very moist and medium dense
to dense. At depth this unit becomes orange red brown and dense to very dense.
3. Groundwater
Groundwater was not encountered in the hand-auger borings. It should be noted,
however, that fluctuations in the amount and level of groundwater might occur due to
variations in rainfall, irrigation and other factors that may not have been evident at the
time of our field investigation.
SEISMICITY
The site is within the seismically active southern California region. There are, however,
no known active faults located within or adjacent to the site. The La Costa Avenue fault
is mapped approximately 700-feet east of the site, however, no evidence of offset within
the last 11,000 years would indicate that this fault is not active. Active fault zones
currently mapped within the general site region include the offshore extension of the
Rose Canyon/Newport-Inglewood, offshore Coronado Bank/Palos Verdes Hills and the
Elsinore, which are located approximately 3.4-miles (5.5-kilometers) southwest, 17.5-
miles (28-kilometers) southwest and 27.2-miles (43.5-kilometers) northeast from the site,
respectively. Strong ground motion could also be expected from earthquakes occurring
along the offshore San Diego Trough, San Jacinto and San Andreas fault zones, which lie
approximately 30-miles southwest, 48-miles northeast and 60 to 70-miles northeast of the
site, respectively. The San Clemente fault, which lies approximately 50-miles southwest
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION

of the site, as well as numerous other offshore faults, could also cause strong ground
motion.
The following table lists the known active faults that would have the most significant
impact on the site:
Maximum Probable
Fault Earthquake Slip Rate Fault
(Moment Magnitude) (mm/year) Type
Rose Canyon
3.4-miles/5.5-kilometers S 7.2 1.5 B
Coronado Bank/Palos Verdes Hills
17.5-miles/28-kilometers S 7.6 3 B
Elsinore(Julian Segment)
27.2-miles/43.5-kilometers NE 7.1 5 A
SEISMIC EFFECTS
1. Ground Motions
The most significant probable earthquake to affect the property would be a 7.2
magnitude earthquake on the Rose Canyon/Newport-Inglewood fault. Depiction of
probabilistic seismic hazard analysis utilizing a consensus of historical seismic data
and the respective regional geologic conditions that are shown on "The Revised 2002
California Probabilistic Seismic-Hazard Maps" (Reference 3), indicates that peak
ground accelerations of about 0.20 to 0.30g are possible with a 10% probability of
being exceeded in 50-years.
2. Landslidina
Review of the referenced geologic literature indicates that the subject property has no
previously mapped ancient landslide deposits. The risk of seismically induced
landsliding affecting the site is considered low due to the gently sloping topography.
3. Ground Cracks
The risk of fault surface rupture due to active faulting is considered low due to the
absence of an active fault on site. Ground cracks due to shaking from seismic events
in the region are possible, as with all of southern California.

Project No. 5429.1
Log No. 9937
April 7, 2006
Page 6
4. Liquefaction
The risk of seismically induced liquefaction within the site is considered low due to
the lack of shallow groundwater and the relatively dense nature of the underlying
terrace deposits.
5. Tsunamis
The risk for seismically generated ocean waves to affect the site is considered low
due to the elevation above sea level.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. General
The proposed building addition, backyard garage/storage shed and storage shed are
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint. Grading and foundation plans
should take into account the appropriate geotechnical features of the site. Assuming
that the recommendations presented in this report and good construction practices are
utilized during the design and construction, the proposed construction is not
anticipated to adversely impact the adjacent properties from a geotechnical
standpoint.
2. Seismic Parameters for Structural Desien
Seismic considerations that should be used for structural design at the site include the
following:
a. Ground Motion —The proposed structures should be designed and constructed to
resist the effects of seismic ground motions as provided in Chapter 16, Division
IV of the 2001 California Building Code. The basis for the design is dependent on
and considers seismic zoning, site characteristics, occupancy, configuration,
structural system and building height.
b. Soil Profile Type — In accordance with Section 1629.3.1, Table 16-J, and the
underlying geologic conditions, a site Soil Profile of Type SD is considered
appropriate for the subject property.
c. Seismic Zone — In accordance with Section 1629.1 and Figure 16-2, the subject
site is situated within Seismic Zone 4.
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
Project No. 5429.1
Log No. 9937
April 7, 2006
Page 7
d. Seismic Zone Factor (z) — A Seismic Zone Factor of 0.40 is assigned based on
Table 16-1. Since the site is within Seismic Zone 4, Section 1629.4.2 requires a
Seismic Source Type and Near Source Factor.
e. Near-Source Factor (Na and Nv)—Based on the known active faults in the region
and distance of the faults from the site, a Seismic Source Type of B per Table 16-
U, and Near Source Factors of Na= 1.0 per Table 16-S and Nv = 1.18 per Table
16-T are provided.
f. Seismic Coefficients (Ca and Cv)—Using the Soil Profile Type and Seismic Zone
Factor along with Tables 16-Q and 16-R, the Seismic Coefficients Ca= 0.44 (Na)
and Cv=0.64 (Nv) are provided, or Ca=0.44 and Cv=0.76.
3. Slope Stability
The site is gently sloping to the north and no cut or fill slopes are anticipated,
consequently, slope stability is not a design consideration.
4. Site Grading
Prior to grading, the portions of the site where improvements are proposed should be
cleared of existing surface obstructions, vegetation and debris. Materials generated
during clearing should be disposed of at an approved location off-site. Holes resulting
from the removal of buried obstructions should be backfilled with compacted fill.
Old septic systems, if encountered, should be removed and backfilled in accordance
with local regulations. Within the limits of the proposed structures, the existing fill
soils and upper I to 2-feet of the terrace deposits should be removed down to
approved terrace deposits and replaced with compacted fill in order to achieve final
design finish grades. Removal depths are anticipated to extend approximately 2 to 5-
feet below the existing grade. Following removals the exposed terrace deposits
should be scarified to a depth of 6 to 8-inches, moisture conditioned to about
optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 90-percent relative compaction.
The recommended removals and compaction should extend to at least 5-feet outside
the limits of proposed site improvements where practical. Actual removal depths
should be determined in the field by the Geotechnical Consultant based on conditions
exposed during grading.
Fill should be compacted by mechanical means in uniform horizontal lifts of 6 to 8-
inches in thickness. All fill should be compacted to a minimum relative compaction
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
Project No. 5429.1
Log No. 9937
April 7, 2006
Page 8
of 90-percent based upon ASTM: D 1557-02. The on-site materials are suitable for
use as compacted fill provided all vegetation and debris are removed. Rock fragments
over 6-inches in dimension and other perishable or unsuitable materials should be
excluded from the fill. All grading and compaction should be observed and tested as
necessary by the Geotechnical Engineer.
5. Foundation and Slab Recommendations
The proposed two-story addition may be supported on conventional
continuous/spread footings founded at least 18-inches into compacted fill and/or
terrace deposits, should be at least 15-inches wide, and reinforced with a minimum of
two #4 bars, one top and one bottom. The proposed garage/storage shed and storage
shed may be supported on conventional continuous/spread footings founded at least
12-inches into compacted fill and/or terrace deposits, should be at least 12-inches
wide and reinforced with a minimum of two #4 bars, one top and one bottom.
Foundations located adjacent to utility trenches should extend to below a 1:1 plane
projected upward from the bottom of the trench.
Foundations bearing as recommended may be designed for a dead plus live load
bearing value of 2000-pounds-per-square-foot. This value may be increased by one-
third for loads including wind and seismic forces. A lateral bearing value of 250-
pounds-per-square-foot per foot of depth and a coefficient of friction between
foundation soil and concrete of 0.35 may be assumed. These values assume that
footings will be poured neat against the foundation soils. Footing excavations should
be observed by the Geotechnical Consultant prior to the placement of reinforcing
steel in order to verify that they are founded in suitable bearing materials.
Slab-on-grade floors should have a minimum thickness of 4-inches (actual) and
should be reinforced with at least#3 bars spaced at 18-inches, center-to-center, in two
directions, supported on chairs so that the reinforcement is at mid-height in the slab.
Floor slabs should be underlain by a 4-inch thick layer of sand with a 10-mil visqueen
moisture barrier placed in the middle of the sand layer. Prior to placing concrete, the
slab subgrade soils should be thoroughly moistened.
6. Sulfate Content
Representative samples of the on-site soils were submitted for sulfate analyses. The
results of the soluble sulfate tests per EPA 9038 method are presented on the attached
Laboratory Tests Results, Figure 5. The sulfate content of the on-site soils is
consistent with a negligible to severe sulfate exposure classification per Table 19-A-4
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
Project No. 5429.1
Log No. 9937
April 7, 2006
Page 9
of the 2001 California Building Code. It is recommended that all concrete to be in
contact with soil be designed for severe sulfate exposure classification per Table 19-
A-4 of the 2001 California Building Code.
7. Retaining Walls
Retaining walls free to rotate (cantilevered walls) should be designed for an active
pressure of 35-pounds-per-cubic-foot (equivalent fluid pressure) assuming level
backfill consisting of onsite granular soils. Walls restrained from movement at the top
should be designed for an additional uniform soils pressure of 8xH pounds per square
foot where H is the height of the wall in feet. Any additional surcharge pressures
behind retaining walls should be added to these values. Retaining wall foundations
should be designed in accordance with the foundation recommendations provided
previously in this report for the garage/storage shed and storage shed structures.
Retaining walls should be provided with adequate drainage to prevent buildup of
hydrostatic pressure and should be adequately waterproofed. The subdrain system
behind retaining walls should consist at a minimum of 4-inch diameter Schedule 40
(or equivalent) perforated (perforations "down') PVC pipe embedded in at least 1-
cubic-foot of 3/4 inch crushed rock per lineal foot of pipe all wrapped in approved
filter fabric. Recommendations for wall waterproofing should be provided by the
Project Architect and/or Structural Engineer.
8. Retaining Wall and Utility Trench Backfill
All retaining wall and utility trench backfill should be compacted to at least 90-
percent relative compaction (ASTM: D 1557-02). Backfill should be tested and
observed by the Geotechnical Consultant.
9. Site Drainage
The following recommendations are intended to minimize the potential adverse
effects of water on the structures and appurtenances.
a. Consideration should be given to providing the structures with roof gutters and
downspouts that discharge to an area drain system and/or to suitable locations
away from the structures.
b. All site drainage should be directed away from the structures. On-site soils are
generally sandy in nature and considered erodible if exposed to concentrated
drainage.
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
Project No. 5429.1
Log No. 9937
April 7, 2006
Page 10
c. No landscaping should be allowed against the structures. Moisture accumulation
or watering adjacent to foundations can result in deterioration of wood/stucco and
may affect foundation performance.
d. Irrigated areas should not be over-watered. Irrigation should be limited to that
required to maintain the vegetation. Additionally, automatic systems must be
seasonally adjusted to minimize over-saturation potential particularly in the
winter(rainy) season.
e. All yard and roof drains should be periodically checked to verify they are not
blocked and flow properly. This may be accomplished either visually or, in the
case of subsurface drains, placing a hose at the inlet and checking the outlet for
flow.
10. Recommended Observation and Testing During Construction
The following tests and/or observations by the Geotechnical Consultant are
recommended:
a. Observation and testing of grading.
a. Foundation excavations prior to placement of forms and reinforcement.
b. Utility trench backfill.
c. Retaining wall backdrains and backfill.
11. Grading and Foundation Plan Review
Final grading and foundation plans should be reviewed by the Geotechnical
Consultant to confirm conformance with the recommendations presented herein or to
modify the recommendations as necessary.
LIMITATIONS
The analyses, conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site
conditions as they existed at the time of our investigation and further assume the
excavations to be representative of the subsurface conditions throughout the site. If
different subsurface conditions from those encountered during our exploration are
observed or appear to be present in excavations, the Geotechnical Engineer should be
promptly notified for review and reconsideration of recommendations.

RE: DRAINAGE AT GARAGE ENTRANCE
Dear Ms. Haggblom,
At the request of the City of Encinitas we have prepared this letter to inform you of the
potential for storm water runoff to enter the garage near the southwest corner. Because of
the severity of the slope in the private road and the proximity of the garage to the edge of
pavement it is not possible for the garage to be located entirely above the existing
flowline of the road. Therefore, in a heavy storm there will be drainage that does not
continue along Andrew Avenue but instead flows east toward the garage. It is the
professional opinion of Pasco Engineering that if properly maintained, the 12" trench
drain will prevent significant amounts of drainage from entering the garage. Should
small amounts of drainage bypass the trench drain it is our opinion that the internal slope
of the garage (2% out) will adequately convey the water back to the trench drain.
Please do not hesitate to call if you have questions.
Sincerely,
� 1�k
