Three borings were drilled within the proposed 2,800 square feet addition to refusal depths of approximately 7.6, 11.6, and 19.6 feet. Two borings were drilled within the proposed 1,870 square feet addition to refusal depths of approximately 12.6 and 24.6 feet. The clayey silt extended to the termination depths of the borings. Groundwater was encountered in one of the borings at a depth of approximately 16.5 feet. The borings encountered refusal on apparent rock or boulders.
Soil samples are presently in the lab being tested.
The geotechnical report is scheduled for completion on April 17, 2001. Contributions have been received from 60 members. The 23-member Special Gift Phase Committee is busy visiting many families and will continue doing so for at least the next three weeks. When you are contacted by a volunteer, please make their difficult task a little easier by agreeing to meet with them for a short while to discuss the project. By giving of ourselves and working together, we will preserve and enhance the wonderful legacy that has been given to us by past generations.
