Section 2.0 Project Information
2.1 INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of maintaining and repairing an existing rear yard, below - grade, approximately 67 foot
long concrete reinforced upper bluff retention system (50 lineal ft. parallel to the bluff edge and 17 lineal
feet along the northern property line). The retention system was constructed approximately five feet east
of the western bluff edge in 1999 and consists of steel reinforced concrete caissons that have been drilled
to a depth of 38 feet and placed 8 feet on center, with tiebacks and capped by steel and concrete. This
project will further support the retention system with the installation of one row of tiebacks and grade beam
along the base of the exposed caisson wall. In addition, it is recommended that a structural shotcrete skin
be installed across the exposed caisson for the full width of the property.
The site (area of work) is located south of Beacons Beach and North of Stone Steps beach and is west of
Neptune Avenue in the City of Encinitas. Access to the work site will be secured by using flagmen. The
remaining areas surrounding the project consist of public beach. Mid and upper bluff work will be
performed form private property. The project site location is illustrated on the plans prepared by Soil
Engineering Construction, Inc. (SEC).
No vehicle cleaning or vehicle repair will be conducted on site. No hazardous or potentially hazardous
materials will be stored permanently on site. Access to the project site will occur via Neptune Avenue.
The entire site will be secured during the work by the use of flagmen. BMPs will be implemented to
control pollutants from entering Ocean. A representative from Soil Engineering Construction Inc. (SEC)
will inspect the site in accordance with the schedule defined in Table 3.3 -1 to ensure that BMPs are
properly implemented and maintained.
2.2 PROJECT SCHEDULE
The project will began once permits are obtained by performing administrative work and meeting with City
officials. The next item of work is to access the beach and perform excavations next to the existing
seawall to observe its condition and to remove portions of the foundation. The next step will be to install
tiebacks and then a mat/mesh of steel and apply a decorative hand sculpted concrete surface to the
seawall. It is expected that this work will take approximately two to three months. At the same time or
thereafter, work to complete the reconstruction of the bluff slope failure, mid bluff retaining wall repairs and
upper bluff retaining wall treatments will occur.
2.3 POTENTIAL POLLUTANT SOURCES
The construction project site activities that have the potential to pollute stormwater include:
a) Oil and grease, petroleum hydrocarbons, sanitary waste, brake dust, anti - freeze, battery acid,
chlorinated solvents, and metals associated with parked vehicles.
b) Sediment from the removal of concrete and dirt spoils.
c) General project site litter.
d) Concrete and cement from concrete truck and pumping clean outs.

3.3 TRACKING CONTROL AND ENTRANCE/EXIT STABILIZATION
The project site entrance /exit location is located at Moonlight Beach located at the western end of B
Street, and is relatively flat as is the general project site grade. Therefore, appropriate BMPs are not
recommended at this site. Neptune Avenue BMP's will be necessary on an as needed basis.
3.4 WIND EROSION CONTROLS
Wind erosion controls include the use of water, on an as- needed basis, to prevent nuisance dust. Criteria
for wind erosion control include: observable dust, periods of increased vehicle or equipment traffic, and /or
during ground disturbing activities that remove the concrete surfacing and expose the underlying soil
(e.g., if a release occurs and requires soil removal). Table 3-4 identifies wind erosion control BMPs that
will be implemented at the site. Descriptions of the selected wind erosion control BMPs are provided in
Appendix A.

3.6 WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MATERIALS POLLUTION CONTROL BMPS
The project site will be secured during working hours using flagmen. No hazardous materials, solid or
liquid waste will be stored at project site. Small quantities of potentially hazardous materials or liquid
waste may be released as a result of drips from parked vehicles or equipment. Spill prevention and
control will be conducted in accordance with WM-4. Drip pans and /or plastic tarps will be placed under
older vehicles or vehicles that are not scheduled for immediate removal from the site. If oil or other
automotive fluid accumulates in a drip pan it will be properly recycled or disposed of offsite in accordance
with WM -6. If a release occurs and impacts soil, then the impacted soil will be removed and properly
disposed of. Waste Management and Pollution Prevention BMPs that will be implemented include
emptying waste containers on a regular basis, and removal of obsolete equipment on an as- needed basis.
The following materials and wastes that have the potential to contact storm water runoff include:
• Oil and grease, petroleum hydrocarbons, sanitary waste, brake dust, anti - freeze, battery acid,
chlorinated solvents, and metals associated with parked vehicles.
General litter
• Obsolete equipment
• Trash /Garbage stored in receptacles

Case No: 08/087 MUP /CDP /EIA
Dear Mr. Knowlton:
Soil Engineering Construction, Inc. (SEC) has prepared the following responses to your
review of our structural calculations for the subject project.
The engineered plans and calculations should be considered a part of our geotechnical
reports prepared to date for this project. Design parameters utilized in our calculations
are conservative are based on our extensive experience working on Encinitas bluff repair
projects along Neptune Avenue. In regards to the seismic parameters SEC recommends
a seismic coefficient of 0.15g's. This is an acceptable value used in the design of similar
structures along the Encinitas bluff areas as well as in the State of California.

Subject: Preliminary Geotechnical Recommendations Report
Proposed Maintenance Repairs to Existing Retention Structure
794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California
Dear Richard:
In accordance with your request, Soil Engineering Construction, Inc. has completed this
Preliminary Geotechnical recommendation report of the coastal bluff and the existing structures
below your property. This report presents the results of our geotechnical evaluation for the
proposed urgent maintenance repairs to an existing approved and permitted upper bluff retention
wall. It is our opinion that the recommendations contained in this report are consistent with the
City of Encinitas Municipal Code and with all appropriate provisions of the California Coastal
Act.
The following report documents our findings and presents conclusions and recommendations
concerning geotechnical aspects of the coastal bluff as well as the most appropriate engineering
solutions for the needed onsite structure maintenance. The most significant geotechnical issues
affecting the site are: The ongoing mid bluff erosion is presently extending eastward intersecting
the rear yard caisson system. The proposed project is an anticipated emergency repair to the
below - grade, rear yard system at 794 Neptune. As the coastal bluff has failed to the east, the
caissons have become exposed. Without remedial emergency maintenance, the bluff will continue
to fail between, and potentially behind, the caissons, ultimately impacting the residential structure
in the near future. These areas that are subject to imminent failures that will likely result in
failure of existing onsite retaining structures as well as the bluff areas above them which serve to
protect the residential structures on the subject site as well as on the neighboring properties.
As noted in the report, we believe that the conditions at the site pose a significant threat to the
bluff top structure and it is recommended that immediate maintenance repairs, consisting of the
560N. Hwy 101, Suiu: S, Encinkm Califaoia (760) 633 -3470 Fu (760) 613 -3472
installation of one row of tiebacks and grade beam along the base of the exposed caisson wall.
In addition, it is recommended that a structural shotcrete skin be installed across the exposed
caisson for the full width of the property. Some trimming of the bluff immediately adjacent to
and on the caissons will be necessary. It is recommended that this work be done carefully and by
hand. Design parameters for this repair are presented in our design calculations.
It is recommended that the bluff face below the proposed tied back shotcrete repair should be
planted with drought tolerant coastal plantings. The new planting may be placed using a
hydroseed mix. It is further recommended that the Owner perform supplemental plantings on a
bi -yearly basis until substantial plant growth is established. The hydroseeding should be
performed during the late fall to early spring periods of the year.
As per the City's Aesthetic Appearance Policy, all of the existing retaining structures will be
covered with a structural /aesthetic hand sculpted and colored shotcrete so that it will blend into
the natural bluff conditions in the area. Accompanying this report are engineering drawings and
calculations for the repair of the bluff and bluff retaining structures.
We trust that this report meets your present needs. If you should have any questions or need
more information, please contact us at your earliest convenience.
Very truly yours,

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
This report summarizes the findings and recommendations of Soil Engineering Construction,
Inc. (SEC) geotechnical evaluation of the existing approved and permitted upper bluff retention
system at 794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California. A site location map is shown attached
Figure 1. This report was conducted at the request of the property owner based on the owner's
observation of the ongoing erosion occurring on the westerly facing bluff exposing some of the
caissons for the retention system.
The purpose of this report is to provide geotechnical recommendations for the anticipated repairs
to the previously approved and permitted structure located at the rear of the subject property.
Elements of the report include a general evaluation of subsurface soil and geologic conditions,
and a presentation of useful information relevant to the coastline erosion processes in the area.
Based on site visits and geotechnical documentation, SEC, Inc. has determined that the existing
conditions pose a threat that requires a more immediate response. This report outlines
geotechnical considerations, findings, conclusions and recommendations pertinent to providing
time - sensitive repairs to the existing permitted upper coastal bluff retention structure necessary
for the long term stabilization and protection of the primary residential structure.
Reviewers and users of this report should also utilize our engineered design calculations and
plans when interpreting this report. The engineered plans and calculations are part of this
geotechnical document. Design parameters utilized in our calculations are conservative are
based on our extensive experience working on Encinitas bluff repair projects along Neptune
Avenue and are not represented in this document.
2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of this geotechnical evaluation includes the following:
GerberResidence

• Preparation of the final draft of this report.
3.0 BLUFF I SITE DESCRIPTION
According to the topographic survey prepared by Ciremele Surveying (dated March 21, 2008)
and our recent field observations, the subject site is located atop a coastal bluff overlooking the
Pacific Ocean in Leucadia, San Diego County, California. The "building pad" portion of the site
is located between approximately 92 feet Mean Sea Level (MSL), and consists of relatively flat -
lying to gentle ascending ground eastward from the top of bluff toward Neptune Avenue. A
single - family, two story, residence occupies a majority of the "building pad ". The single - family
residence appears to be a wood framed residential structure with appurtenant improvements. The
project is bounded on the east by Neptune Avenue, single family residences on the north and
south, and on west by and approximately 92 foot high, steeply sloping westerly facing sea bluff.
An existing approximately 50 foot long, 15 foot high, 27 -inch thick, reinforced concrete seawall
was constructed in March 1999. The seawall incorporates two rows of tieback anchors
approximately 45 to 55 feet in length and has been colored and sculpted to match the existing
surrounding bluff area. Also in 1999, the construction of a below- grade, approximately 67 foot
long concrete reinforced upper bluff retention system (50 lineal ft. parallel to the bluff edge and
17 lineal feet along the northern property line). The retention system was constructed in the rear
yard of the residence approximately five feet east of the western bluff edge of its location in
1999 and consists of steel reinforced concrete caissons that have been drilled to a depth of 38
feet and placed 8 feet on center, with tiebacks and capped by steel and concrete. At this time, the
bluff has eroded to the point that some of the vertical piers and the upper grade beam are now
exposed.

4.0 SITE RECONNAISSANCE
A site reconnaissance was performed by a staff geologist under the supervision of our licensed
engineering geologist. During the reconnaissance, the geologic conditions exposed in the coastal
bluff were documented. The attached Geologic Map (Figure 1), which has been modified from
the 10 -scale topographic survey and construction plans prepared by SEC (March 24, 2008),
presents the general geologic conditions of the coastal bluff at the site.
Soil and geologic units were noted to be very similar to previous sampled and tested
soil/geologic units of this area of Neptune Avenue.

Relzional Geolot_y
The subject property is located within a prominent natural geomorphic province in southwestern
California known as the Peninsular Ranges. It is characterized by steep, elongated mountain
ranges and valleys that trend northwesterly. The mountain ranges are generally underlain by
basement rocks consisting of pre - Cretaceous metasedimentary rocks, Jurassic metavolcanic
rocks, and Cretaceous plutonic rocks of the southern California batholith.
In the San Diego County region, deposition occurred during the Cretaceous Period and Cenozoic
Era in the continental margin of a forearc basin. Sediments, derived from Cretaceous -age
plutonic rocks and Jurassic -age volcanic rocks, were deposited into the narrow, steep coastal
plain and continental margin of the basin. These rocks have been uplifted, eroded, and deeply
incised. During early Pleistocene time, a broad coastal plain was developed from the deposition
of marine terrace deposits. During mid- to late - Pleistocene time, this plain was uplifted, eroded,
and incised. Alluvial deposits have since filled the lower valleys, and young marine sediments
are currently being deposited/eroded within coastal and beach areas. Geologic mapping by
Kennedy and Tan (2005) indicate that site geologic units include Quaternary marine beach
deposits, Quaternary old paralic deposits, and the Tertiary Santiago Formation.

Regional bedding trends northeast and dips 5 degrees to the northwest. Kennedy and Tan (2005)
have also mapped several northeast trending faults within the seacliff near the site. Regional and
local faulting is discussed later in this report. A regional geologic map, modified from Kennedy
and Tan (2005), is presented as Figure 2. Tan (1986) indicates that the site is located in
Landslide Susceptibility Areas 2 and 4, which are respectively defrled as areas marginally and
most susceptible to landslides.
Coastal Bluff Geomorpholozy
The typical coastal -bluff profile may be divided into three zones; the shore platform, a lower
near - vertical cliff surface termed the sea cliff, and an upper bluff slope generally ranging in
inclination between about 30 and 45 degrees. The bluff top is the boundary between the upper
bluff and geomorphic surface of the coastal terrace.
Offshore from the sea cliff is an area that extends to approximate elevation of -60 feet MSL,
termed the near -shore zone. The bedrock surface in the near -shore zone, which extends out to
sea from the base of the sea cliff, is the shore platform. As pointed out by Trenhaile (1987),
worldwide, the shore platform may vary in inclination from near - horizontal to as steep as 3:1
(h:v). The boundary between the sea cliff (the lower vertical and near - vertical section of the
bluff) and the shore platform is called the cliff - platform junction, or sometimes the shoreline
angle.
Within the near -shore zone is a subdivision called the inshore zone, beginning where the waves
begin to break. This boundary varies with time because the point at which waves begin to break
changes dramatically with changes in wave size and tidal level. During low tides, large waves
will begin to break further away from shore. During high tides, waves may not break at all, or
they may break directly on the lower cliff. Closer to shore is the foreshore zone, that portion of
the shore lying between the upper limit of wave wash at high tide and the ordinary low water
mark. Both of these boundaries often lie on a sand or cobble beach. In the case of a shoreline
with a bluff. the foreshore zone extends from low water to the lower face of the bluff.

Emery and Kuhn (1982) developed a global system of classification of coastal bluff profiles, and
applied that system to the San Diego County coastline from San Onofre State Park to the
southerly tip of Point Loma. Emery and Kuhn (1982) designated this portion of the coast as
"active" and "Type C (c)," as the surficial deposits are relatively thick with respect to the
underlying bedrock. The letter "C" designates coastal bluffs where the sea cliff portion of the
bluff is more resistant to erosion that the upper bluff portion. The relative effectiveness of
marine erosion compared to subaerial erosion of the bluff produces a characteristic profile. The
letter "(c)" indicates that the long -term rate of subaerial erosion is about equal to that of marine
erosion. However, the presence of the upper and lower bluff retention systems are protecting the
sea cliff from active marine erosion, and portions of the upper bluff from subaerial erosion.
Site Geolo¢ic Units
Based upon a review of SEC (1999a and 1999b) and our observations during the recent site
reconnaissance, site geologic units include Quaternary beach deposits, undocumented artificial
fill, Quaternary terrace deposits, and bedrock units consisting of the Tertiary Santiago and the
Tertiary Torrey Sandstone. The Tertiary Santiago and the Tertiary Torrey Sandstone were not
directly observed at the site during the site reconnaissance because of the present low relief sand
berm, vegetation, and a lower bluff seawall that conceal the sea cliff. However, a review of SEC
(1999a and 1999b) indicates that these formational units underlie the site. The earth materials
are generally described below from the youngest to the oldest, and their limits are delineated on
Figure 1.
Quaternary Beach Deposits (Man Symbol Qb)
A transient shingle beach composed of rounded, fine- to medium - grained sand and sparse
cobbles exists at the base of the bluff. The thickness of the sandy beach deposits varies
seasonally. During winter months, storm related surf and currents typically remove the sand
from the beach and transport it offshore. The sand is typically re- deposited along the beach
during the summer months when calmer seas and currents prevail. Previous beach replenishment
GerberResidence Prelim. Geotechnlcai Recommendations Rpt
794 Neptune
efforts by SANDAG have resulted in a low relief berm near the rear of the beach.
Undocumented Artificial Fill (Map Symbol- Afu)
According to SEC (1999a and 1999b), undocumented fill soils, consisting of brown, moist loose
to medium dense silty sands, occur within the upper 3 feet of the building pad, mainly on the
eastern portions of the building pad area. Based upon a review of available topographic maps
and information gathered during our previous subsurface exploration, the thickness of these soils
may vary across the site.
Quaternary Terrace Deposits (Map Symbol - Qt)
Also according to SEC (1999a and 1999b), Quaternary terrace deposits comprise the coastal
bluff at the site between approximately 24%2 and 91 feet MSL, and currently comprise the
exposed mid and upper bluff areas. According to SEC (1999a), these deposits generally consist
of orange - brown, yellow - brown, light gray- brown, light brown, and brown silty to slightly silty
sand to light yellow, gray, and gray -brown fine- to medium - grained sand. The terrace deposits
typically vary between thickly and poorly bedded to thinly and well bedded. Due to their
generally cohesionless nature, the terrace deposits are considered highly erosive and are subject
to sandflows and slumps when saturated. Killing was observed within the terrace deposits at the
site.
Tertiary Santiago (Map Symbol - Ta)
As indicated in SEC (1999a), the Tertiary Santiago formation unconformably underlies the
terrace deposits at an approximate elevation of 24'/2 feet MSL. These formational sediments
generally consist of a gray siltstone with some sand.
Tertiary Torrey Sandstone (not mapped)
GerberResidence Prelim. Geotechnical Recommendations Rpt
794 Neotune
The Tertiary Torrey Sandstone was encountered at depth below the Santiago (SEC, 1999a). This
formation generally consists of a gray brown, dry, very dense sandstone.
GEOLOGIC STRUCTURE
According to SEC (1999b), bedding within the Santiago formation is estimated to dip
approximately 2' /z degrees in a northerly direction. Elliot (2001) indicates that bedding planes,
within the Santiago formation, form an approximately east - northeasterly plunging shallow
syncline which is approximately centered in the middle of the June 2, 1996 landslide. The
subject site rests on the southern limb of this syncline where bedding dips approximately 3 to 7
degrees in a northeasterly direction (Elliot, 2001), or into slope.
Numerous faults are exposed within the sea cliff of the Leucadia coastline. The subject site is
located between the Beacon's and Seawall faults. According to Elliot (2001), the Beacon's fault
trends N 5"E and dips approximately 75" to the west. Elliot (2001) indicates that the Seawall
fault generally trends N20 "E and dips approximately 82" west. Please see the following narrative
for a summary of regional1local faulting and seismicity.
FAULTING AND REGIONAL SEISMICITY
San Andreas Transform Fault Svstem
The San Andreas transform -Fault system is a family of right - lateral faults that evolved along the
continental margin of western North America since middle Miocene time in response to
interactions between the North American plate and various oceanic plates to the west.
Depending on the plate size, geometry, and boundary conditions, this motion produced either
rotation or translation (e.g., the western Transverse Ranges), transtensional rifting (e.g., the outer
borderland), or partioning of strain into nearly pure strike -slip motion (e.g., Baja California). As
the transform system evolved in a simple shear environment (i.e., only the Pacific Plate is
moving obliquely), a geometric relationship developed among fault structures, with the San
GerberResidence Prelim Geotechnical Recommendations Rpt

g_
Andreas fault zone becoming the principal displacement zone. More northerly striking faults
evolved (synthetic shears) and east- westerly faults evolved (antithetic shears). The San Andreas
fault zone (the principal displacement zone) and the northerly trending faults that developed
showed right - lateral slip, whereas, the east- westerly trending faults that developed originally
showed left- lateral slip (Sylvester, 1988). A similar scenario may have initiated the easterly
trending faults exposed in the coastal bluffs of Leucadia. Alternatively, these easterly trending
faults may be a result of local extensional stress in a northwest - southeast oriented direction. This
is discussed later in the text of this report.
As summarized by Matti, et al. (1992), in central California, displacement has occurred mainly
along the San Andreas proper. In southern California, however, the total displacement has been
taken up by several discreet fault strands - including the San Andreas, San Jacinto, Punchbowl,
San Gabriel, and Banning faults, as well as other structures (Matti and Morton, 1993), with some
displacement being partitioned to the Elsinore, Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canyon, and
Coronado Bank faults, among others.
The California Continental Borderland is a complex part of the continental transform fault
boundary between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates (Legg and Kennedy, 1991).
The region is underlain by numerous Cenozoic faults that are subparallel to the San Andreas
fault. The Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canyon fault zone is considered a part of, or aligned with,
this zone. Although, in general, these faults are mostly right -slip in character, conforming with
the relative plate motion in the region, segments of the offshore fault zones show local
convergence or extension associated with bends. In addition, regional variability in partitioning
of the plate boundary strain across and among these faults also results in many fault segment
showing oblique movement. These faults have the potential to generate uplift or subsidence
during a major offshore earthquake which could result in generation of a tsunami, such as was
observed in 1927 offshore of Lompoc, in Central California.
GerberRestdence Prelim Geotechnical Recommendations Rpt
794 Neptune
The Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canvon Fault Zone
As summarized by Fischer and Mills (1991), the Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canyon fault zone
trends southeast from the east -west trending Santa Monica fault zone in the north, through San
Diego Bay in the south, and is considered to be one continuous fault zone. The southern Rose
Canyon zone may connect to the Pescadero fault near the International Border and become part
of the Agua Blanca system in Baja California. The northern Newport- Inglewood fault zone in
the Los Angeles basin is a narrow belt of discontinuous, dominantly left- stepping, en echelon
faults and folds that is the result of movement along a major through- going, right -slip fault in
basement rocks. The southern onshore Newport- Inglewood fault zone and the Newport-
Inglewood - rose Canyon fault zone are in general less complex zones of linear dominantly left -
stepping shears.
The site is located approximately 3 miles west of the principal traces of the Rose Canyon fault
zone. This zone consists of a continuous, northwest trending, broad zone of right lateral oblique
slip faults. Recent studies at one location in Rose Canyon (La Jolla) have indicated Holocene
activity along one strand of the Rose Canyon Fault Zone (Lindvall, et al., 1989). As a result of
these studies, the State of California has classified a portion of the fault between Mission Bay
and La Jolla Cove, as well as downtown San Diego, as active.
Local Faulting
As previously indicated, several northeast and east - northeast trending faults, including the
Beacon's and Seawall faults, have been mapped within the site's vicinity (Kennedy and Tan,
2005; Eisenberg, 1983). These relatively short, synthetic strike -slip faults occurred in
conjunction with movement along the Rose Canyon fault prior to between 85,000 and 125,000
years BY (Eisenberg, 1985). As such, they do not meet the criteria for active faults (i.e.,
movement within the Holocene epoch, or last "11,000 years "), according to the State of
California (Hart and Bryant, 2007), and from the standpoint of location of habitable structures
for human occupancy, should not pose a constraint . However, should a large earthquake occur
GerherResidence Prelim Geotechrncal Recommendations Rpt
794 Neptune
10 -
on one of the nearby active faults, some sympathetic secondary movement on these faults may
also occur, potentially resulting in some distress to overlying settlement - sensitive improvements.
This potential is not any greater than for nearby already developed properties with similar
geologic conditions.
Probabilistic Horizontal Site Acceleration WSHA)
A probabilistic seismic hazards analyses was performed using FRISKSP (Blake, 2000), which
models earthquake sources as 3 -D planes and evaluates the site specific probabilities of
exceedance for given peak acceleration levels or pseudo- relative velocity levels. Based on a
review of this data, and considering the relative seismic activity of the southern California
region, a peak horizontal ground acceleration of 0.27 g was calculated. This value was chosen as
it corresponds to a 10 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years (or a 475 -year return period).
Seismic Hazards
The following list includes other seismic related hazards that have been considered during our
evaluation of the site. The hazards listed are considered negligible and/or completely mitigated
as a result of site location, soil characteristics, and typical site development procedures
• Dynamic Settlement
• Surface Fault Rupture
• Ground Lurching or Shallow Ground Rupture
• Seiche
It is important to keep in perspective that in the event of a maximum probable or credible
earthquake occurring on any of the nearby major faults, strong ground shaking would occur in
the subject site's general area. Potential damage to any structure(s) would likely be greatest from
the vibrations and impelling force caused by the inertia of a structure's mass than from those
induced by the hazards considered above. This potential would be no greater than that for other
GerberResidence Prelim Geotechnical Recommendations Rpt

i i-
existing structures, and improvements in the immediate vicinity. Additionally, significant tidal
waves generated from a seismic event could affect the lower portion of the site and affect overall
bluff stability, possibly even affecting the existing structure and proposed bluff retention system.
However, we are unaware of any viable protection mitigation for tsunamis.
6.0 GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER
No observed groundwater seepage was observed at the beach or on the bluff face. We note that
seasonal perched groundwater levels and conditions can fluctuate due to factors such as rainfall
amounts, rainfall intensity, temperatures, or other factors. Changes in this perched groundwater
condition can affect the stability of the upper bluff area.
The runoff of surface water on the property appears to drain towards the east as sheet flow and
also via a sump pump system toward Neptune Avenue.
7.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The result of our geotechnical and civil engineering evaluation indicates that the primary
residential structure may be impacted within the next twelve months by one or any combination
of the substandard conditions on site. These conditions are:
The ongoing mid bluff erosion is presently extending eastward intersecting the rear
yard caisson system. The proposed project is an anticipated emergency repair to the
below - grade, rear yard system at 794 Neptune. As the coastal bluff has failed to the
east, the caissons have become exposed- Without remedial emergency maintenance,
the bluff will continue to fail between, and potentially behind, the caissons, ultimately
impacting the residential structure.

2. Loss of passive resistance if erosion extends below it current levels. The slope now
appears to be at its angle of repose and probably won't erode more /flatter if the
landscape recommendations provided below are carried out.
Reviewers and users of this report should also utilize our engineered design calculations and
plans when interpreting this report. The engineered plans and calculations are part of this
geotechnical document. Design parameters utilized in our calculations are conservative are
based on our extensive experience working on Encinitas bluff repair projects along Neptune
Avenue and are not represented in this document.
Based on the findings presented above, we believe that the conditions at the site pose a
significant threat to the bluff top structure and it is recommended that immediate maintenance
repairs, consisting of the installation of one row of tiebacks and grade beam along the base of the
exposed caisson wall. In addition, it is recommended that a structural shotcrete skin be installed
across the exposed caisson for the full width of the property. Some trimming of the bluff
immediately adjacent to and on the caissons will be necessary. It is recommended that this work
be done carefully and by hand. Design parameters for this repair are presented in our design
calculations.
It is recommended that the bluff face below the proposed tied back shotcrete repair should be
planted with drought tolerant coastal plantings. The new planting may be placed using a
hydroseed mix. It is further recommended that the Owner perform supplemental plantings on a
bi -yearly basis until substantial plant growth is established. The hydroseeding should be
performed during the late fall to early spring periods of the year.
As noted above, construction plans and calculations for the work described above have been
prepared and are submitted with this report for review by the City of Encinitas Planning and
Engineering Departments.

In summary, it is our opinion that in order to protect the residential structure at the subject site
from potential damage / failure, the immediate construction of the recommended coastal bluff
stabilization measures is required.

Re: Supplemental Geotechnical Information Nov 10 X09
794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California
Dear Mr. McEachem:
The following letter has been prepared to provide supplemental geotechnical information
for the subject project. On February 17, 1999, SEC advanced a boring on the property to
a depth of approximately 95 feet. The purpose of this subsurface exploration was to
confirm information presented in our report "Preliminary Geotechnical Evaluation /
Request for Emergency Processing, Proposed Lower Bluff Seawall & Upper Bluff
Retention System, Mattingley Residence, 794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California ",
dated February 10, 1999.
As noted above, our subsurface exploration consisted of advancing a boring, B -1 .794,
to a maximum depth of about 95 feet. The boring location is shown on Plate 5. An
engineer from this office logged the boring, collected disturbed and relatively undisturbed
soil samples, and oversaw the drilling operation. The boring was advanced using a CME
75 High Torque truck mounted drilling rig, equipped with 8 -inch hollow -stem augers and
a automatic trip hammer for soil sampling. The drill rig and operator were supplied by
Tri- County Drilling, Inc., of San Diego, California.
Subsurface soils were visually classified in the field in general accordance with the
procedures of ASTM D2488 -84 and the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS).
Logs of the boring are presented on Plate I through 4 and are attached to this
correspondence.
As encountered in the boring, the site is underlain by up to about 3 feet of fill consisting
of silty sands. Underlying the said fill are Terrace deposits to a depth of approximately
69.5 feet. Underlying the fill and the Terrace deposits is the Ardath formation. The
Ardath formation was continuously sampled, using a continuous core barrel, to observe
any clay seams and/or shear zones. No clay seams or shear zones were observed from
the recovered samples. At a depth of approximately 93 feet, Torrey formation was
encountered. A trace of groundwater was observed, perched over the Ardath formation at
a depth of approximately 69 feet.

Double Corrosion Protection DCP (Type C)
Corrosion protection for the anchor tendon can be
improved by extending the outer corrugated PE or
PVC duct over the free stressing length. In this
case, pregrouting of the anchor inside the plastic
duct is riot recommended because of difficulties
which might be encountered during transportation
and placing.
Double Corrosion Protection DCP (Type D)
The ideal protection for strand anchors is one in
which the strand is totally and permanently pro-
tected from the time of manufacture throughout its
life. Such protection is provided by epoxy coating
the individual strands both externally and internally.
Flo -bond Flo-fit* is a rugged, thermally bonded
polymer coating that offers maximum corrosion
protection, with a bond strength that exceeds that
of bare strand. When two stage grouting is used,
no additional corrosion protection is required even
DSI
in applications where the free stressing length will
remain ungrouted for an extended period of time.
The Dywidag wedge anchor for epoxy coated strand
bites through the coating into the strand, developing
a minimum of 95% of its nominal ultimate tensile
strength. Corrosion protection provided by the
epoxy is not compromised by the wedge.
Although the cost of epoxy coated.strand is higher
than bare strand, the total cost of the installed
anchor is reduced by eliminating the outer corru-
gated plastic duct. This makes it possible to mini-
mize the drill hole size, thereby reducing the cost of
drilling and grouting.
Double Corrosion Protection DCP (Type E)
For anchors in which single stage grouting is
desirable, the free stressing length of epoxy coat-
ed strand anchors can be coated with a lubricat-
ing grease and encased in a seamless extruded
PE sheath.

RE: Request for City Release of CD (7S %);
Gerber Residence; 794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California
Case No. 08 -087 MUP / CDP / EIA
The applicants posted two (2) CD's in lieu of a performance bond. The total bond amount (attached)
totaled $86,160.00.
A CD in the amount of $21,540 was provided as 25% security in lieu of bonding; and
A CD in the amount of $64,620 was provided as 75% security in lieu of bonding.
The project is near completion and has received on -site inspections. Remaining work includes:
Landscaping $ 6,888.00 (bid attached)
Removal of Cantilevered Segment of Existing Concrete Deck $ 9,000.00
Demobilization & Scaffold Removal $ 2,000.00
Total remaining project cost $ 17,888.00
As an alternative to cutting a segment of the existing concrete deck, the applicant has proposed creating
a thicker layer of hand - sculpted, color- treated shotcrete to eliminate any existing deck overhang
(approximately 12" to 18 ". The applicant has filed a request for a Finding of Substantial Conformance on
this proposal.
SEC's cost to complete additional hand - sculpted, color- treated shotcrete sufficient to eliminate any
cantilevered appearance of the existing deck is $12,500.00. If a Finding of Substantial Conformance is
provided by the city, the remaining project cost would be increased by $3,500.00 (the difference
between cutting the deck and providing the additional shotcrete treatment. The total remaining project
cost would then be $21,388.00
Regardless of whether the applicants' request for finding of Substantial Conformance related to a
construction change is approved, the applicant has completed sufficient work to obtain release of the
CD providing 75% security in lieu of bonding. The remaining CD, in the amount of $21, 540, is sufficient
for the city to retain.
Thank you for your review and assistance on this matter. If you have any questions or require additional
information, please contact us a (760) 633 -3470.

Subject: Preliminary Geotechnical Recommendations Report
Proposed Maintenance Repairs to Existing Retention Structure
794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California
Dear Richard:
In accordance with your request, Soil Engineering Construction, Inc. has completed this
Preliminary Geotechnical recommendation report of the coastal bluff and the existing structures
below your property. This report presents the results of our geotechnical evaluation for the
proposed urgent maintenance repairs to an existing approved and permitted upper bluff retention
wall. It is our opinion that the recommendations contained in this report are consistent with the
City of Encinitas Municipal Code and with all appropriate provisions of the California Coastal
Act.
The following report documents our findings and presents conclusions and recommendations
concerning geotechnical aspects of the coastal bluff as well as the most appropriate engineering
solutions for the needed onsite structure maintenance. The most significant geotechnical issues
affecting the site are: The ongoing mid bluff erosion is presently extending eastward intersecting
the rear yard caisson system. The proposed project is an anticipated emergency repair to the
below- grade, rear yard system at 794 Neptune. As the coastal bluff has failed to the east, the
caissons have become exposed. Without remedial emergency maintenance, the bluff will continue
to fail between, and potentially behind, the caissons, ultimately impacting the residential structure
in the near future. These areas that are subject to imminent failures that will likely result in
failure of existing onsite retaining structures as well as the bluff areas above them which serve to
protect the residential structures on the subject site as well as on the neighboring properties.
As noted in the report, we believe that the conditions at the site pose a significant threat to the
bluff top structure and it is recommended that immediate maintenance repairs, consisting of the
560N. Hwy 101, Suite 5, Fackitig CWMwno (760) 633 -3470 Fa (760) 633 -3471
installation of one row of tiebacks and grade beam along the base of the exposed caisson wall.
In addition, it is recommended that a structural shotcrete skin be installed across the exposed
caisson for the full width of the property. Some trimming of the bluff immediately adjacent to
and on the caissons will be necessary. It is recommended that this work be done carefully and by
hand. Design parameters for this repair are presented in our design calculations.
It is recommended that the bluff face below the proposed tied back shotcrete repair should be
planted with drought tolerant coastal plantings. The new planting may be placed using a
hydroseed mix It is further recommended that the Owner perform supplemental plantings on a
bi- yearly basis until substantial plant growth is established. The hydroseeding should be
performed during the late fall to early spring periods of the year.
As per the City's Aesthetic Appearance Policy, all of the existing retaining strictures will be
covered with a structuml/aesthetic hand sculpted and colored shotcrete so that it will blend into
the natural bluff conditions in the area. Accompanying this report are engineering drawings and
calculations for the repair of the bluff and bluff retaining structures.
We trust that this report meets your present needs. If you should have any questions or need
more information, please contact us at your earliest convenience.
Very truly yours,

This report summarizes the findings and recommendations of Soil Engineering Construction,
Inc. (SEC) geotechnical evaluation of the existing approved and permitted upper bluff retention
system at 794 Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, California. A site location map is shown attached
Figure 1. This report was conducted at the request of the property owner based on the owner's
observation of the ongoing erosion occurring on the westerly facing bluff exposing some of the
caissons for the retention system.
The purpose of this report is to provide geotechnical recommendations for the anticipated repairs
to the previously approved and permitted structure located at the rear of the subject property.
Elements of the report include a general evaluation of subsurface soil and geologic conditions,
and a presentation of useful information relevant to the coastline erosion processes in the area.
Based on site visits and geotechnical documentation, SEC, Inc. has determined that the existing
conditions pose a threat that requires a more immediate response. This report outlines
geotechnical considerations, findings, conclusions and recommendations pertinent to providing
time- sensitive repairs to the existing permitted upper coastal bluff retention structure necessary
for the long term stabilization and protection of the primary residential structure.
Reviewers and users of this report should also utilize our engineered design calculations and
plans when interpreting this report. The engineered plans and calculations are part of this
geotechnical document. Design parameters utilized in our calculations are conservative are
based on our extensive experience working on Encinitas bluff repair projects along Neptune
Avenue and are not represented in this document.
2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of this geotechnical evaluation includes the following:
GerberResidence Prelim Geotechmcal Recommendations Rot
-94 Neptune
• Review of geological and topographical maps and literature pertaining to the sites and
vicinity. (see Appendix A).
• Geological reconnaissance to record, measure and map portions of the coastal bluff
pertaining to the existing site conditions.
• Preparation of the final draft of this report.
3.0 BLUFF / SITE DESCRIPTION
According to the topographic survey prepared by Ciremele Surveying (dated March 21, 2008)
and our recent field observations, the subject site is located atop a coastal bluff overlooking the
Pacific Ocean in Leucadia, San Diego County, California. The "building pad" portion of the site
is located between approximately 92 feet Mean Sea Level (MSL), and consists of relatively flat -
lying to gentle ascending ground eastward from the top of bluff toward Neptune Avenue. A
single - family, two story, residence occupies a majority of the "building pad ". The single - family
residence appears to be a wood framed residential structure with appurtenant improvements. The
project is bounded on the east by Neptune Avenue, single family residences on the north and
south, and on west by and approximately 92 foot high, steeply sloping westerly facing sea bluff.
An existing approximately 50 foot long, 15 foot high, 27 -inch thick, reinforced concrete seawall
was constructed in March 1999. The seawall incorporates two rows of tieback anchors
approximately 45 to 55 feet in length and has been colored and sculpted to match the existing
surrounding bluff area. Also in 1999, the construction of a below - grade, approximately 67 foot
long concrete reinforced upper bluff retention system (50 lineal ft. parallel to the bluff edge and
17 lineal feet along the northern property line). The retention system was constructed in the rear
yard of the residence approximately five feet east of the western bluff edge of its location in
1999 and consists of steel reinforced concrete caissons that have been drilled to a depth of 38
feet and placed 8 feet on center, with tiebacks and capped by steel and concrete. At this time, the
bluff has eroded to the point that some of the vertical piers and the upper grade beam are now
exposed.

4.0 SITE RECONNAISSANCE
A site reconnaissance was performed by a staff geologist under the supervision of our licensed
engineering geologist. During the reconnaissance, the geologic conditions exposed in the coastal
bluff were documented. The attached Geologic Map (Figure 1), which has been modified from
the 10 -scale topographic survey and construction plans prepared by SEC (March 24, 2008),
presents the general geologic conditions of the coastal bluff at the site.
Soil and geologic units were noted to be very similar to previous sampled and tested
soil/geologic units of this area of Neptune Avenue.

Regional Geology
The subject property is located within a prominent natural geomorphic province in southwestern
California known as the Peninsular Ranges. It is characterized by steep, elongated mountain
ranges and valleys that trend northwesterly. The mountain ranges are generally underlain by
basement rocks consisting of pre - Cretaceous metasedimentary rocks, Jurassic metavolcanic
rocks, and Cretaceous plutonic rocks of the southern California batholith.
In the San Diego County region, deposition occurred during the Cretaceous Period and Cenozoic
Era in the continental margin of a forearc basin. Sediments, derived from Cretaceous -age
plutonic rocks and Jurassic -age volcanic rocks, were deposited into the narrow, steep coastal
plain and continental margin of the basin. These rocks have been uplifted, eroded, and deeply
incised. During early Pleistocene time, a broad coastal plain was developed from the deposition
of marine terrace deposits. During mid- to late - Pleistocene time, this plain was uplifted, eroded,
and incised. Alluvial deposits have since filled the lower valleys, and young marine sediments
are currently being deposited/eroded within coastal and beach areas. Geologic mapping by
Kennedy and Tan (2005) indicate that site geologic units include Quaternary marine beach
deposits, Quaternary old paralic deposits, and the Tertiary Santiago Formation.

Regional bedding trends northeast and dips 5 degrees to the northwest. Kennedy and Tan (2005)
have also mapped several northeast trending faults within the seacliff near the site. Regional and
local faulting is discussed later in this report. A regional geologic map, modified from Kennedy
and Tan (2005), is presented as Figure 2. Tan (1986) indicates that the site is located in
Landslide Susceptibility Areas 2 and 4, which are respectively defined as areas marginally and
most susceptible to landslides.
Coastal Bluff Geomorpholozy
The typical coastal -bluff profile may be divided into three zones; the shore platform, a lower
near- vertical cliff surface termed the sea cliff, and an upper bluff slope generally ranging in
inclination between about 30 and 45 degrees. The bluff top is the boundary between the upper
bluff and geomorphic surface of the coastal terrace.
Offshore from the sea cliff is an area that extends to approximate elevation of -60 feet MSL,
termed the near -shore zone. The bedrock surface in the near-shore zone, which extends out to
sea from the base of the sea cliff, is the shore platform. As pointed out by Trenhaile (1987),
worldwide, the shore platform may vary in inclination from near- horizontal to as steep as 3:1
(h:v). The boundary between the sea cliff (the lower vertical and near- vertical section of the
bluff) and the shore platform is called the cliff - platform junction, or sometimes the shoreline
angle.
Within the near-shore zone is a subdivision called the inshore zone, beginning where the waves
begin to break. This boundary varies with time because the point at which waves begin to break
changes dramatically with changes in wave size and tidal level. During low tides, large waves
will begin to break further away from shore. During high tides, waves may not break at all, or
they may break directly on the lower cliff. Closer to shore is the foreshore zone, that portion of
the shore lying between the upper limit of wave wash at high tide and the ordinary low water
mark. Both of these boundaries often lie on a sand or cobble beach. In the case of a shoreline
with a bluff, the foreshore zone extends from low water to the lower face of the bluff.

794 Neptune
Emery and Kuhn (1982) developed a global system of classification of coastal bluff profiles, and
applied that system to the San Diego County coastline from San Onofre State Park to the
southerly tip of Point Loma. Emery and Kuhn (1982) designated this portion of the coast as
"active" and "Type C (c)," as the surficial deposits are relatively thick with respect to the
underlying bedrock. The letter "C" designates coastal bluffs where the sea cliff portion of the
bluff is more resistant to erosion that the upper bluff portion. The relative effectiveness of
marine erosion compared to subaerial erosion of the bluff produces a characteristic profile. The
letter "(c)" indicates that the long -term rate of subaerial erosion is about equal to that of marine
erosion. However, the presence of the upper and lower bluff retention systems are protecting the
sea cliff from active marine erosion, and portions of the upper bluff from subaerial erosion.
Site Geologic Units
Based upon a review of SEC (1999a and 1999b) and our observations during the recent site
reconnaissance, site geologic units include Quaternary beach deposits, undocumented artificial
fill, Quaternary terrace deposits, and bedrock units consisting of the Tertiary Santiago and the
Tertiary Torrey Sandstone. The Tertiary Santiago and the Tertiary Torrey Sandstone were not
directly observed at the site during the site reconnaissance because of the present low relief sand
berm, vegetation, and a lower bluff seawall that conceal the sea cliff. However, a review of SEC
(1999a and 1999b) indicates that these formational units underlie the site. The earth materials
are generally described below from the youngest to the oldest, and their limits are delineated on
Figure 1.
Quaternary Beach Deposits (Map Symbol Qb)
A transient shingle beach composed of rounded, fine- to medium - grained sand and sparse
cobbles exists at the base of the bluff. The thickness of the sandy beach deposits varies
seasonally. During winter months, storm related surf and currents typically remove the sand
from the beach and transport it offshore. The sand is typically re- deposited along the beach
during the summer months when calmer seas and currents prevail. Previous beach replenishment
GerberResiaence Prelim Geotechnlcal Recommendations Rpt
794 Neptune
efforts by SANDAG have resulted in a low relief berm near the rear of the beach.
Undocumented Artificial Fill (Mai) Symbol- Afu)
According to SEC (1999a and 1999b), undocumented fill soils, consisting of brown, moist loose
to medium dense silty sands, occur within the upper 3 feet of the building pad, mainly on the
eastern portions of the building pad area. Based upon a review of available topographic maps
and information gathered during our previous subsurface exploration, the thickness of these soils
may vary across the site.
Ouaternary Terrace Deposits (Mao Symbol - Ot)
Also according to SEC (1999a and 1999b), Quaternary terrace deposits comprise the coastal
bluff at the site between approximately 24%2 and 91 feet MSL, and currently comprise the
exposed mid and upper bluff areas. According to SEC (1999a), these deposits generally consist
of orange - brown, yellow - brown, light gray- brown, light brown, and brown silty to slightly silty
sand to light yellow, gray, and gray -brown fine- to medium - grained sand. The terrace deposits
typically vary between thickly and poorly bedded to thinly and well bedded. Due to their
generally cohesionless nature, the terrace deposits are considered highly erosive and are subject
to sandflows and slumps when saturated. Rilling was observed within the terrace deposits at the
site.
Tertiary Santia¢o (Map Symbol - TO
As indicated in SEC (1999a), the Tertiary Santiago formation unconformably underlies the
terrace deposits at an approximate elevation of 24'/2 feet MSL. These formational sediments
generally consist of a gray siltstone with some sand.
Tertiary Torrey Sandstone (not mapped)

The Tertiary Torrey Sandstone was encountered at depth below the Santiago (SEC, 1999a). This
formation generally consists of a gray brown, dry, very dense sandstone.
GEOLOGIC STRUCTURE
According to SEC (1999b), bedding within the Santiago formation is estimated to dip
approximately 2% degrees in a northerly direction. Elliot (2001) indicates that bedding planes,
within the Santiago formation, form an approximately east - northeasterly plunging shallow
syncline which is approximately centered in the middle of the June 2, 1996 landslide. The
subject site rests on the southern limb of this syncline where bedding dips approximately 3 to 7
degrees in a northeasterly direction (Elliot, 2001), or into slope.
Numerous faults are exposed within the sea cliff of the Leucadia coastline. The subject site is
located between the Beacon's and Seawall faults. According to Elliot (2001), the Beacon's fault
trends N 5"E and dips approximately 75" to the west.

FAULTING AND REGIONAL SEISMICITY
San Andreas Transform Fault System
Elliot (2001) indicates that the Seawall
west. Please see the following narrative
The San Andreas transform -fault system is a family of right - lateral faults that evolved along the
continental margin of western North America since middle Miocene time in response to
interactions between the North American plate and various oceanic plates to the west.
Depending on the plate size, geometry, and boundary conditions, this motion produced either
rotation or translation (e.g., the western Transverse Ranges), transtensional rifting (e.g., the outer
borderland), or partioning of strain into nearly pure strike -slip motion (e.g., Baja California). As
the transform system evolved in a simple shear environment (i.e., only the Pacific Plate is
moving obliquely), a geometric relationship developed among fault structures, with the San

Andreas fault zone becoming the principal displacement zone. More northerly striking faults
evolved (synthetic shears) and east- westerly faults evolved (antithetic shears). The San Andreas
fault zone (the principal displacement zone) and the northerly trending faults that developed
showed right - lateral slip, whereas, the east - westerly trending faults that developed originally
showed left - lateral slip (Sylvester, 1988). A similar scenario may have initiated the easterly
trending faults exposed in the coastal bluffs of Leucadia. Alternatively, these easterly trending
faults may be a result of local extensional stress in a northwest - southeast oriented direction. This
is discussed later in the text of this report.
As summarized by Matti, et al. (1992), in central California, displacement has occurred mainly
along the San Andreas proper. In southern California, however, the total displacement has been
taken up by several discreet fault strands - including the San Andreas, San Jacinto, Punchbowl,
San Gabriel, and Banning faults, as well as other structures (Matti and Morton, 1993), with some
displacement being partitioned to the Elsinore, Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canyon, and
Coronado Bank faults, among others.
The California Continental Borderland is a complex part of the continental transform fault
boundary between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates (Legg and Kennedy, 1991).
The region is underlain by numerous Cenozoic faults that are subparallel to the San Andreas
fault. The Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canyon fault zone is considered a part of, or aligned with,
this zone. Although, in general, these faults are mostly right -slip in character, conforming with
the relative plate motion in the region, segments of the offshore fault zones show local
convergence or extension associated with bends. In addition, regional variability in partitioning
of the plate boundary strain across and among these faults also results in many fault segment
showing oblique movement. These faults have the potential to generate uplift or subsidence
during a major offshore earthquake which could result in generation of a tsunami, such as was
observed in 1927 offshore of Lompoc, in Central California.

The Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canvon Fault Zone
As summarized by Fischer and Mills (1991), the Newport- Inglewood - Rose Canyon fault zone
trends southeast from the east -west trending Santa Monica fault zone in the north, through San
Diego Bay in the south, and is considered to be one continuous fault zone. The southern Rose
Canyon zone may connect to the Pescadero fault near the International Border and become part
of the Agua Blanca system in Baja California. The northern Newport- Inglewood fault zone in
the Los Angeles basin is a narrow belt of discontinuous, dominantly left- stepping, en echelon
faults and folds that is the result of movement along a major through- going, right -slip fault in
basement rocks. The southern onshore Newport- Inglewood fault zone and the Newport-
Inglewood - rose Canyon fault zone are in general less complex zones of linear dominantly left -
stepping shears.
The site is located approximately 3 miles west of the principal traces of the Rose Canyon fault
zone. This zone consists of a continuous, northwest trending, broad zone of right lateral oblique
slip faults. Recent studies at one location in Rose Canyon (La Jolla) have indicated Holocene
activity along one strand of the Rose Canyon Fault Zone (Lindvall, et al., 1989). As a result of
these studies, the State of California has classified a portion of the fault between Mission Bay
and La Jolla Cove, as well as downtown San Diego, as active.
Local Faultin
As previously indicated, several northeast and east - northeast trending faults, including the
Beacon's and Seawall faults, have been mapped within the site's vicinity (Kennedy and Tan,
2005; Eisenberg, 1983). These relatively short, synthetic strike -slip faults occurred in
conjunction with movement along the Rose Canyon fault prior to between 85,000 and 125,000
years BY (Eisenberg, 1985). As such, they do not meet the criteria for active faults (i.e.,
movement within the Holocene epoch, or last "11,000 years "), according to the State of
California (Hart and Bryant, 2007), and from the standpoint of location of habitable structures
for human occupancy, should not pose a constraint . However, should a large earthquake occur

on one of the nearby active faults, some sympathetic secondary movement on these faults may
also occur, potentially resulting in some distress to overlying settlement - sensitive improvements.
This potential is not any greater than for nearby already developed properties with similar
geologic conditions.
Probabilistic Horizontal Site Acceleration (PSHA)
A probabilistic seismic hazards analyses was performed using FRISKSP (Blake, 2000), which
models earthquake sources as 3 -D planes and evaluates the site specific probabilities of
exceedance for given peak acceleration levels or pseudo - relative velocity levels. Based on a
review of this data, and considering the relative seismic activity of the southern California
region, a peak horizontal ground acceleration of 0.27 g was calculated. This value was chosen as
it corresponds to a 10 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years (or a 475 -year return period).
Seismic Hazards
The following list includes other seismic related hazards that have been considered during our
evaluation of the site. The hazards listed are considered negligible and/or completely mitigated
as a result of site location, soil characteristics, and typical site development procedures:
• Dynamic Settlement
• Surface Fault Rupture
• Ground Lurching or Shallow Ground Rupture
• Seiche
It is important to keep in perspective that in the event of a maximum probable or credible
earthquake occurring on any of the nearby major faults, strong ground shaking would occur in
the subject site's general area. Potential damage to any structure(s) would likely be greatest from
the vibrations and impelling force caused by the inertia of a structure's mass than from those
induced by the hazards considered above. This potential would be no greater than that for other

existing structures, and improvements in the immediate vicinity. Additionally, significant tidal
waves generated from a seismic event could affect the lower portion of the site and affect overall
bluff stability, possibly even affecting the existing structure and proposed bluff retention system.
However, we are unaware of any viable protection mitigation for tsunamis.
6.0 GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER
No observed groundwater seepage was observed at the beach or on the bluff face. We note that
seasonal perched groundwater levels and conditions can fluctuate due to factors such as rainfall
amounts, rainfall intensity, temperatures, or other factors. Changes in this perched groundwater
condition can affect the stability of the upper bluff area.
The runoff of surface water on the property appears to drain towards the east as sheet flow and
also via a sump pump system toward Neptune Avenue.
7.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The result of our geotechnical and civil engineering evaluation indicates that the primary
residential structure may be impacted within the next twelve months by one or any combination
of the substandard conditions on site. These conditions are:
The ongoing mid bluff erosion is presently extending eastward intersecting the rear
yard caisson system. The proposed project is an anticipated emergency repair to the
below - grade, rear yard system at 794 Neptune. As the coastal bluff has failed to the
east, the caissons have become exposed. Without remedial emergency maintenance,
the bluff will continue to fail between, and potentially behind, the caissons, ultimately
impacting the residential structure.

2. Loss of passive resistance if erosion extends below it current levels. The slope now
appears to be at its angle of repose and probably won't erode more /flatter if the
landscape recommendations provided below are carried out.
Reviewers and users of this report should also utilize our engineered design calculations and
plans when interpreting this report. The engineered plans and calculations are part of this
geotechnical document. Design parameters utilized in our calculations are conservative are
based on our extensive experience working on Encinitas bluff repair projects along Neptune
Avenue and are not represented in this document.
Based on the findings presented above, we believe that the conditions at the site pose a
significant threat to the bluff top structure and it is recommended that immediate maintenance
repairs, consisting of the installation of one row of tiebacks and grade beam along the base of the
exposed caisson wall. In addition, it is recommended that a structural shotcrete skin be installed
across the exposed caisson for the full width of the property. Some trimming of the bluff
immediately adjacent to and on the caissons will be necessary. It is recommended that this work
be done carefully and by hand. Design parameters for this repair are presented in our design
calculations.
It is recommended that the bluff face below the proposed tied back shotcrete repair should be
planted with drought tolerant coastal plantings. The new planting may be placed using a
hydroseed mix. It is further recommended that the Owner perform supplemental plantings on a
bi -yearly basis until substantial plant growth is established. The hydroseeding should be
performed during the late fall to early spring periods of the year.
As noted above, construction plans and calculations for the work described above have been
prepared and are submitted with this report for review by the City of Encinitas Planning and
Engineering Departments.

In summary, it is our opinion that in order to protect the residential structure at the subject site
from potential damage / failure, the immediate construction of the recommended coastal bluff
stabilization measures is required.
