Lounsbury & Associates 72' West 6th Ave Anchorage, Alaska_ 99501 Re: Ceark Subdivision Tracts F, E, C & D Attention: Mr. Darl Kvasager Dear Darl: At your request, we have completed 4 test borings along with the required percolation tests on the referenced Project. Site Description The Project site is located in the West 1075 feet of the North 1260 feet of the NWl/4 NWl/4., Section 6 TllN R2W . S.M. The terrain is moderately sloping with grades between lk and 13 percent. At the time of our drilling in late May, ~:: b~:eak-up was occuring in the high mountains and the surface "~:' layers of soil in Tracts C, D & E were in a wet condition-' Subsurface Information The depth of organic topsoil varies from 1 foot in Tract F to 4 feet in the remainder of the tracts. Dry to moist Silty Gravelly Sands occur at minus 2 feet in Tract F and generally below minus 6 feet in Tract C, D & E. No bedrock or subsurface ground water was encountered to the depths investigated. H.V. Lounsbury & Associates Ceark Subdivision 6/8/76 Page 2 Conclusions . The results of our percolation tests indicated that the soils at this site will require drainage areas of between 225 and : '7- ,~ 250 square feet per bedroom We strongly recommend tha~ the ~; drainage fields be constructed after spring break-up conditions are completed and the surface soil layers are dryer.
