Subject: Subsurface Investigation for Suitability of
On-Site Sewer, Lot 2A, Reiley Subdivision
Gentlemen:
Transmitted herein in accordance with the instructions of
Bill Thompson of Lounsbury & Associates, are the results of
the above referenced investigation as performed by us on
April 13, and 15, 1977. The scope of this projecu is investiga--
tion for suitability of an on-site sewerage system.
Included J.n this transmittal are:

Test Hole Log
Explanatory Information

Table A
Sheets 1-3
The exploration was conducted using a truck mounted Mobile
E-50 rig with continuous flight solid stem auger. The rig
is owned and operated by Denali Drilling, Inc. Drilling was
supervised, the test holes logged by Mr. O.M. Hatch, Geologist/
Senior Technician with Alaska Testlab.
The log of the test hole is included as Table A of this
report. In interpreting the log it would be helpful to
utilize the explanatory information contaimed in Sheets 1
to 3 of this report.
When drilling was completed a 3/4" slotted PVC pipe was
inserted in the hole to aid in determining the free water
level. For the percolation test, the test hole was filled
with water and left overnight to saturate. On returning the
next day, the hole was refilled with water and the drop in
the water level carefully monitored over the next 60 minutes.
This procedure is not a standardized percolation test,
however, we understand that the Municipality of Anchorage,
Department of Public Health and Environmental Prot, cction
prefers tests performed in this manner to evaluate a site
for' a prc!~osed, on-site sewerage system.

Using the above test, the observed minimum percolation rate
was 3.3 minutes per inch. ~//z'W'~
In our experience, fine sandy soils such as encountered on
this site plug up more easily than coarser soils. The
observed percolation rate is very rapid, considering the
soil types encountered in the test hole. For design purposes,
we recon~end a more conservative value, 8.0 minutes per
inch, or 135~sq. ft. per bedroom, be used to offset the
tendency of the soil to clog.
No water table was observed during drilling. It should be
noted though, that the free water level normally fluctuates
seasonally and with precipitation.
We hope this report meets your present needs. If we can be
of further service, please feel free to contact us.
Sincerely,
ALASKA TESTLAB

Test Hole Log- Description Guide
The soil descriptions shown on the logs are the best estimate of the soil's
characteristics at the time of field examination and as such do not achieve the
precision of a laboratory testing procedure, If the log includes soils samples,
those samples receive an independent textural classification in the laboratory
to verify the field examinatton.
The logs often include the following items:
Depth interval - usually shown to 0.1 foot, within that zone no
significant change in soil type was observed through drill acti6n, direct
observation or sampling.
Frost Classification - NFS, Fl, F2, F3, F4, see "Soft Classification
Chart"
Texture ufSoil - An engineering classification of the soils by particle
stze anti proporuon, see "Soil Classification Chart", note flte
proportions are approximate and tin,dilatations to the soil group due to
stratification, inclusions and changes m properties are included.
Moisture Content this is a qualitative nleasure:
dry, no or httle apparent surface moisture,
damp, moisture forms portion of color,less than plastic limit,
wet, ntl frec water, o(teu soft, ii' cohesive soil,
saturated, free water may be squeezed out, ifa free draining soill
dilatent at nat~al moisture content, if a non-plastic silt or fine
sand. (The moisture content is further definedby reference to PI,
LW, NP, M%or dilatency.)
Density - refers to more-or-less non-cohesive soils, such as sand gravel
mixtures with or wahout a fine fraction, derived from drilling action
and/or sample data: usually described as: very loose, loose, medium
dense, very dense. General intent is to portray earthwork
characteristics.
Stiffness - refers to more-or-less cobesive soils and fine grained silts of
t'"~T' clay-sih groups. Derived from drill action and/or sample data. Very
soft, soft, stiff, very stiff and hard are commonly used terms.
Particle size -- The largest particle recovered by the split spoon is
1-3/8", Shelby tube 3", auger flights {minute-man) 2", Auger flights
{B-g0 hollow stem! 6"-8". Larger particles are described indirectly by
action of the drilling and are referred to as cobbles, 3" to 8", or
boulders 8"+. There(ore when reviewing the gradation sheets, if any,
the description on the hole log must be considered for an indication of
larger particles.
Unified Soil C].tssification - This is a two letter code. See Unified
~{'ication sheet tor further definition. In some cases AASHO and/or
FAA soil classifications may be shown a* well as the unified.
Atterberg Limits useful for fine grained and other plastic soils.
PI; natural moisture content believed to be less than plastic limit
PI+; natural moisture content believed to be between plastic and liquid
ITmit s
L.__~; natural moisture content believed to be greater than liquid limit
N._.~P; non-plastic, u~et'ul as a modifying description of some silty
mat ~.tials.
Dilatenc~_ - is the abdity of water to migrate to the surface of a
saturated or nearly saturated soil sample wheu vtbrated or jolted -- used
as an aid to d,:termme fl a fine grained soil ts a shghfly or non-plastic
Sftt or a volcanic aS}l.
Rock flour - finely ground soft that is not plastic but otherwise appears
~ clayey silt.
Organic Content - usually described as Peat. PT, sometimes includes
discrete particles such as wood, coal, etc. as a ~nodifier to an inorganic
soil, Quantity described as; trace, or an estimate of volume, or, in case
of all organic, - as Peat. This may include tundra, muskeg and bog
material.
Muck ~ a modifier used to describe very soft, semi-organic deposits
usually occuring below a peat deposit.
Amorphus peat -- organic particles nearly or fully disintegrated.
Fibrous Peat - organic particles more-or-less intact.
Bottom ofTesthole - includes last sample interval.
Frost Line - seasonal frost depth as described by drilling action and/or
samples at the time of drilling.
Frozen Ground -otber than frost line, described by samples, usually
includes description of ice content, often will include modified Unified
Classification for frozen soils - this is a special case related to
permafrost studies.
Free Water Level - The free water level noted during drilling. This is
not necessarily the static water table at the time of drilling or at other
seasons. Static water table determination in other than very permeable
soils requires observation wells or piezometer installations, used only m
special cases.
Blow/6" - The number of blows ora 140 weight free falling 30" to
advance a 2" split spoon 6"; the number of blows for a 12" advance is,
by definition, thc standard penetration.
M% - natural moisture content of the soil sample, usually not
performed on clean sands or gravels below the water table.
Type of Sample -
S__P, refers to 2" split spoon driven into the soil by 140 pound
weight, a disturbed sample,
S, thin wall tube, "Shelby" used to obtain undisturbed samples
of fine grained soil,
C,,, "grab" disturbed sample from auger flights or wall of trench,
.g., cut sample, undisturbed sample from wall of trench.
Dry Strength - a useful indicator of a soil's clayey fraction, N=None,
L=Low, M=Medium, H=High
Group -- The samples are placed into apparently similar groups based
on color and texture and are arbitrarily assigned a group letter. Furli~er
disturbed tests including Atterberg Limits, gram size, moistureatensity
relationsMp, etc. olay be performed on the group and are ,~ssumed to
reflect the general distrubed characteristics of the soils assigned to the
group. This ~s an important phase of the soil analysis and is u~ed to
standardize file various qualitative detcrminat~ons and to reduce the
number of quantitative te~ts necessary to describe the ~oiJ mass.
