I::iti~ t-st pit. ]ocali~ms were located on the property by Mr. Mike Gellager of TrycE, Nymsn ~ Ha~s and this the cente~ the pr~,~rt, y~ ~e d~ta aobta~n"d from the ~l tests lndicaDed that s~face bedronk condit~ons occur on a ~rtlon of the prb~rty. In order to dete~ne to w~% extent the surf.s bedrock occ~s, ~ditlonal Lest pits were h~d excav~d as shown on the enclosed map. ~ese test pits were excavated to bedrock or at le~t h feet below ~ound s~face whichever occ~ed first. Visual ex~[nation of the geological feat- ~es was useful] ~n d~te~ining where the bedrock would ~ found. ~ bedrock is readily app~ent in the l~ge ~llies which occ~ in the West & E~t portions of the pro~rty. ~e lots situated between t~ ~llies show mo 'evidence of sh~low bedrock conditions ~ dete~ined by t~ test pits ~d visual ex~lnmtion. ~se lots c~ be utilized satisfactorily for individu~ ho~ sewer.s sys- ~ms by using eit~r see~ pits or le~hing fields, dep- ending on soil conditions. ~e ~rcolation data obtained ~ t~ deep. test pits indica~ t~t the soil conditions would require ~5 square feet of drain.s area per bed-- Fo~. The enclosed report showm the type of soil conditions found on each lot, the depth to the bedrock if encount- ered and which lots had test pits. "Bedrock near the surface" indicates that the bedrock occurs within 5 feet of the ground surface. The enclosed map shows the loca- tions of each test pit and the approximate boundaries of the surface bedrock conditions. If there are any questions, pleas~ contact our office. Very truly yours!
