Attention: Mr. Tucker ~_~%4./.~/~~:_
Subject: Groll Subdivision, Lots 2 and 3
Block 1, Percolation Tests £\
Dear Mr. Tucker:
./
Test holes were drilled on the subject lots touu 3~ -~e/te~mine
subsoil conditions and to determine suitabilifl~ for~°n-*site
sewage disposal. The test holes were drill~ on November
27, 1981, using a Nodwell mounted MObile ~61 drill fitted
with a solid flight auger. The drill rig is owned and
operated by Denali Drilling, Inc. The/~st holes were
logged by Denali Drilling personnel; /~ples were obtained
at five foot intervals in each test/hole and were sealed in
plastic bags and forwarded to Ala~a Testlab for identifi-
cation.
/
On November 30, 1981, both te~ holes were checked by Mr.
David Paul of Alaska Testlab/ The test hole on lot 3, Block
~, (Te~t hole ~2~ w~s fzlle~ wz=n groundwat.= an= a perco-
lation tes~ could not be p~rformed. It is recommened that
further subsurface investigation be performed on this lot,
due to the subsurface groundwater conditions.
A percolation test was ~erformed on Lot 2, B!oc~ 3] (Test
Hole ~1) by~~ t~6" diameter test hole w~water an~
allowzng it -~o saturate ~or 24 hours. The tollow~n~ day, /~
the hole was re~zlled with water, and the evaluation o~
.~water in the hole was measured in !0 mlnute ~.ntervals for ~a ~
]/~O~% hour period. The minimum observed perco.~ation rate wa%
