SITE LOCATION
The project area is located on the west side of Discovery Bay near the south end. According to the United
States Geological Survey (USGS), 7.5 minute Port Townsend South, Washington topographic quadrangle
map, the property is located in the southeast quarter of Section 13, Township 29 North, Range 2 West, W.M.
Latitude 48.003 degrees and at Longitude 122.871 degrees: The site location is shown on the Site Vicinity
Map, Figure 1.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
We understand that the proposed project consists of expanding the existing sand and gravel pit to the
maximum extent possible within the existing property lines (see the Site Plan, Figure 2). The present pit
occupies a portion of the south comer of the property. Storm water runoff will be directed to an infiltration
system to be located near the east comer of the property. The infiltration system design has not been
completed at this time.
In the event the proposed construction information detailed in this report is inconsistent with the final design,
we should be notified so that we may update this writing as applicable.
PURPOSE & SCOPE
The purpose of the geotechnical investigation is to estimate the stability of slopes within the project area.
Our scope of Work was outlined in our proposal K&A Number PE02-220P, dated February 19, 2003 and
includes the following items:

SITE INVESTIGATION
SITE DESCRIPTION
Ljr L J JUN 2 7 2003
JEFFERSON COUNTY
OEPT. OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
The property is bounded by Highway 101 to the southeast, a Washington State Department of Transportation
facility to the northeast, and undeveloped land to the northwest and southwest. Most of the site is currently
forested with the existing small gravel pit at the south comer of the property. The site slopes up to the north
with an overall grade of 20 to 25 percent and localized grades on natural slopes as steep as 100 percent.
Areas within the active portion of the pit have near vertical grades on slopes 10 to 15 feet high.
GEOLOGIC SETTING
The Washington Division of Geology and Earth Resource (WDGER), Geologic Map of Washington -
Northwest Quadrant, dated 2002, indicates that the property is located in an area identified as
Undifferentiated Outwash (Qgo) with Glacial Till (Qgt) upslope and Beach Deposits (Qb) downslope.
Undifferentiated outwash consists of recessional and proglacial stratified sand, gravel and cobbies with minor
silt and clay interbeds deposited in meltwater stream environments. Glacial till consists of an unsorted,
unstratified, highly compacted mixture of clay, silt, sand, gravel and boulders deposited by glacial ice.
Beach deposits consist of sand and gravel deposited in shoreline environments. -They may contain shell
fragments and gravel tends to be well rounded. It may also include dune deposits and deposits of estuarine
origin.
The USDA Soil Conservation Services (SCS) Soil Survey for Jefferson County, Washington maps the soils
in the project area as Hoypus gravelly loamy sand, 15 to 30 percent slopes and Clallam gravelly sandy loam,
15 to 30 percent slopes. This soil occupies glacial terraces. The hazard of water erosion is moderate and
runoffis medium.

Slope Stabili _ty
The "Coastal Zone Atlas of Washington", Volume 1 I, Jeffe~'n~.C~ty¢!Washi ~ng~n~.,Dep~rtrnent of
Ecology, 1979 identifies slopes in the site vicinity as Unstable (U) with Intermediate (I) upslope. Unstable
slopes are considered unstable due to erosional, stratigraphic, slope gradient, or groundwater conditions.
They may show indications of past or present movement. Intermediate slopes are generally steeper than 15
percent, but also include areas of lesser slopes with weak material or heavy groundwater concentration. This
designation includes slopes without known failures of a variety of deposits (sand, gravel, and till) and thin
soils over bedrock.
SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
The subsurface conditions were investigated at the site by excavating a total of 9 test pits to depths of up to
17 feet at the locations indicated on the attached Site Plan, Figure 2. Test Pit 9 was excavated in the general
vicinity'of the proposed infiltration system. Additional test pits will be excavated in the area of the proposed
infiltration system at a later date.
Soil
The subsurface soils consist of dense to very dense sand and silty sand with varying amounts of gravel. For
additional information regarding the soils encountered, please refer to the test pit logs in Appendix A.
Groundwater
Slow water seepage was encountered in TP-3 at a depth of about 9 feet below the ground surface. Ground
water was not encountered in any of the other test pits. We did not see any evidence of springs on the site.
Water table elevations fluctuate with time,, being dependent upon seasonal precipitation, irrigation, land use,
and climatic conditions, as well as other factors. Therefore, water level observations at the time of the field
investigation may vary from those encountered during the mining phase of the project. The evaluation of
such factors is beyond the scope of this report Additional information regarding groundwater levels may be
available in our forthcoming Aquifer Recharge Report.
Laboratory Testing
Soil samples were obtained from the borings for visual classification and laboratory testing for engineering
properties. Tests were performed for moisture content and grain size distribution. Please see Appendix A
for more information.
SEISMIC ZONE
The United States Geologic Survey, Earthquake Hazards Program, National Seismic Hazard Mapping
Project website indicates that the peak ground acceleration for the site with a probability of exceedence of 10
percent in 50 years is 0.28 g.
Krazan & Associates, Inc.
Eleven Offices Serving The Western United States
P:\102~)3\0:~0 - Trucking Pit Expansion\102-03020 Trucking Pit F. xpansion,doc
Due to the dense nature of the soils encountered in our tesl3 pi/g; we estimate that the potential for liquefaction
at the site is low to non-existent.
A detailed, site specific study of seisrnicity at the site was not part of our scope of work. However, we did
not that two north-south trending fault zones are mapped on the Geologic Map of Washington - Northwest
Quadrant within about 1 to 2 miles of the project site. However, both faults are indicated as inferred, which
likely means they do not show at the ground surface. Further seismicity from these known fault zones would
have been included in the National Seismic Hazard Mapping Project, and are therefore accounted for in our
analyses by the seismic coefficient derived from the peak ground acceleration.
SITE RECONNAISSANCE
We examined the slopes on the site and adjacent properties for any indication of slope failures or
instability. Indications of slope failure and/or instability include head scarps, hummocky terrain,
inconsistent patterns of vegetation, tension cracks, seepage zones and course grain material overlaying silt-
and clay soils. We did not observe any indications of slope instability.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
GENERAL
Based on our investigation and a review of the Jefferson County Unified Development Code (UDC), it is our
opinion that the site is a Landslide Hazard Area as defined in section 3.6.6 of the UDC. This designation is
due to the site being within an area mapped as Unstable in the Coastal Zone Atlas. In our opinion, the site is
not an Erosion Hazard Area as defined in the same section and is a Seismic Hazard Area. However, the
Seismic Hazard Area designation would be due solely to the potential for slope movement in a seismic event
and is therefore not a separate designation from the Landslide Hazard Area.
Although, the entire site meets the definition of a Landslide Hazard Area from the UDC, it is our opinion that
the proposed pit expansion cmpccur without adverse affects to the property or adjacent prop6rties. Please
see the Slope Stability Conclusions section below for more information.
The results of our investigation indicate that the site slopes in the current configuration are relatively stable.
As detailed below, we recommend that permanent slopes less than 120 feet high be graded no steeper than
1.SH: 1V (horizontal:vertical), and slopes more than 120 feet but less than 250 feet high be graded no steeper
than 1.6H:IV. Temporary slopes may be graded no steeper than 1H:IV. Please see below for additional
information.
SLOPE STABILITY
We performed slope stability analyses on a generalized cross section in which the height and grade of the
slope was varied. The height range used was based on the topographic information provided by Zenovic and
Associates. The slope stability computer program Slope/W by Geomatic was utilized to evaluate the stability

The psuedostatic method was used for our slope stability analyses to estimate the factor of safety under
seismic conditions. The United States Geologic Survey, Earthquake Hazards Program --National Seismic
Hazard Mapping Project, indicates that a peak ground acceleration (PGA) of 0.28 g has a I0 percent
probability of exceedence in 50 years (500 year return period). The seismic coefficient is typically taken to
be V2 of the PGA. A seismic coefficient of 0.14 was used in our analyses.
The results of slope stability analyses are expressed as factors-of-safety against rotational failure. The factor-
of-safety is the ratio of driving forces to resisting forces. A factor-of-safety of 1.0 is equilibrium; a factor-of-
safety of less than 1.0 indicates failure. Typically, a factor-of-safety of 1.3 for static conditions and 1.1 for
seismic conditions is considered adequate. Factors of safety greater than 1 but less than 1.3 or 1.1 are not
adequate due to the uncertainties inherent in the modeling process. A lower safety factor for seismic
conditions is adequate as the probability of occurrence of the seismic conditions analyzed is relatively Iow.
Slope Stability Analysis Results
We primarily analyzed an estimated cross section for permanent final slopes at the end of mining (i.e. when.
the mine shuts down). For this case both static and seismic conditions were analyzed. The grade of the slope
was varied to estimate the steepest slope for which an adequate factor of safety existed. In addition to the
grade, the total height of the slope has an affect on the safety factor. The results indicate that for slopes up to
120 feet high, a grade of 1.SH:IV or about 34 degrees has a factor of safety of 1.1 under seismic conditions
and more than 1.4 under static conditions. For slopes up to 250 feet high, a grade of 1.6H:IV or about 32
degrees has a factor of safety of 1.1 under seismic conditions and more than 1.3 under static conditions.
We also analyzed a generalized cross section at a IH:IV grade under static conditions to confirm that
temporary slopes could be graded at 1H:IV. The results of the analysis indicates that slope, s.up to 100 feet
high and IH:IV have a factor of safety greater than 1.
Note that in all cases the resulting potential slip surfaces with the minimum calculated factors of safety occur
essentially on the slope face with no more than about 10 feet of the crest of the slope including within the
potential slip surface. We understand that the mining permit requires a buffer from the property line of at
least 25 feet. Therefore potential slip surfaces that would impact adjacent properties will likely have higher
factors of safety than those presented above.

Slope StabiliW Conclusions .
Based on our site investigation and analyses results we conclude the following:
· There is minimal landslide hazard at the site as we did not observe any evidence of landslide activity
in the vicinity.
· Our slope stability analyses indicate that the pit can be excavated in such a manner that the risk of
landslides is essentially eliminated.
· Although we have not prepared the drainage and erosion control plan ourselves, it is our
understanding that all surface water rUnoff will be directed to an infiltration system. Therefore,
excavation of the pit will not increase surface water discharge or sedimentation to adjacent
properties.
· As there are slopes in the vicinity of the property as steep or steeper than the proposed final slopes
for the pit, it is our opinion that excavation of the pit will not decrease the stability of slopes on
adjacent properties
· As previously mentioned, our analyses were performed for both static and seismic conditions, and
all of the preceding statements apply under seismic conditions up to the probability event described
(10 percent probability of exceedence in 50 years or 475 year return event).
SLOPE GRADES
As discussed in the previous section (Slope Stability), we make the following recommendations regarding
slope grades on slopes constructed fi.om undisturbed soils:
Temporary slopes should be no steeper than IH:IV up to 100 feet high. The phrase "temporary
slope" as used here is not intended to apply to the portion of the property that is being actively
mined. A temporary slope, as used here, is an intermediate slope configuration where the soil
comprising the slope is to be mined months or years in the future. The configuration of slopes
within the active portion of the mine (i.e. the working face) is an issue for mine operation, rather
than a long-term slope stability:issue.
· Permanent slopes up to 120 feet high may be no steeper than 1.5H: IV.
· Permanent slopes up to 250 feet high may be no steeper than 1.6H: 1V.
Note that if the mining plan is changed to include slopes constructed from compacted fill, they will likely
need to be 2H: 1V or shallower or reinfomed with geotextile. If this becomes the case, please contact us for
more information on compacted fill slopes. As mining operations approach the property lines, care must be
taken not to cut a temporary slope so close to the property line that the required permanent slope grade can
not be achieved.
All permanent slopes should be replanted with fast-growing, deep-rooted grass, shrubs and other ground
cover as soon after final grading as practical. Temporary slopes likely do not need erosion protection as we
Krazan & Associates, Inc.
Eleven Offices Serving The Western United States
P:\102~3~20 -Trucking Pit Expansion\102-03020 Trucking Pit Expansion.doc
anticipate that temporary slopes will only be constructed during mining operations. Erosion of temporary
slopes will only be an issue to the extent that the deposited soil from slope erosion is confined to the
property.
INFILTRATION RATES
As part of this study, one test pit was excavated in the general vicinity of the proposed infiltration system. A
sample of the soil from this test pit was tested for grain size distribution in accordance with the USDA
textural analysis. The results of this test indicate that the soil in this area is a very gravelly sand. We
understand that Jefferson County is currently using the 1992 version of the Puget Sound Stormwater
Management Manual. The recommended short-term infiltration rate for sand (from the Stormwater
Management Manual) is 8 inches per hour. This value (with an appropriate safety factor applied) may be
used for initial design of the infiltration system. When the infiltration system design is complete and the
precise location and depth has been determined, some additional testing will need to be done to confirm the
infiltration rate.
LIMITATIONS
Geotechnical engineering is one of the newest divisions of Civil Engineering. This branch of Civil
Engineering is constantly improving as new technologies and understanding of earth sciences improves.
Although your site was analyzed ming the most appropriate current techniques and methods, undoubtedly
there will be substantial future improvements in this branch of engineering. In addition to improvements in
the field of Geotechnical engineering, physical changes in the site either due to excavation or fill placement,
new agency regulations or possible changes in the proposed structure after the time of completion of the soils
report may require the soils report to be professionally reviewed. In light of this, the Owner should be aware
that there is a practical limit to the usefulness of this report without critical review.
Earthwork construction is characterized by the presence of a calculated risk that soil and groundwater
conditions have been fully revealed by the original geotechnical investigation. This risk is derived from the
practical necessity of basing interpretations and design conclusions on limited sampling of the earth. The
recommendations made in this report are based on the assumption that soil conditions do not vary
significantly from those disclosed during our field investigation. If any variations or undesi_mble conditions
are encountered during construction, the Geotechnical engineer should be notified so that supplemental
recommendations can be made.
The conclusions of this report are based on the information provided regarding the proposed construction. If
the proposed construction is relocated or redesigned, the conclusions in this report may not be valid. The
Geotechnical engineer should be notified of any changes so the recommendations can be reviewed and
reevaluated.
This report is a geotechnical engineering investigation with the purpose of evaluating the soil conditions in
terms of foundation design. The scope of our services did not include any environmental site assessment for

The field investigation consisted of a surface reconnaissance and a subsurface exploratory program with nine
test pits. The test pit locations are shown on the Site Plan, Figure 2. The depths shown on our test pit logs
are established from the existing ground surface at the time the test pits were excavated. Soil samples were
collected from the test pits and retained for laboratory testing. The soils encountered were continuously
examined and visually classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System. All samples
were returned to our Poulsbo laboratory for evaluation.
Logs of the test pits are presented as Figures A-1 through A-9.
Laboratory Investigation .
The laboratory investigation was performed to estimate the physical and mechanical properties of the soil
underlying the site. Test results were used as criteria for determining the engineering characteristics of the
surface and subsurface materials encountered.
Insitu moisture content and grain size distribution tests were performed on representative soil samples.
These tests, supplemented by visual observation, comprised the basis for our evaluation.
The logs of the exploratory borings and labomtory determinations are presented in this Appendix. The
results of the in sim moisture content and fines content (the portion of the sample passing a #200 sieve as part
of a grain size distribution test) are indicated on the boring log. The results of the grain size distributions are
indicated on Figures A-10 through A-18.
