The purpose of our investigation was to assess the geotechnical suitability of the subject site for the proposed development. Our work was authorized by Ben gazer. 1.1 Scope of Work Our scope of work included a site visit and limited subsurface investigation on April 1, 2022. Five test pits were excavated to a maximum depth of 5 -feet below ground surface (BGS). The soil was visually classified in accordance with the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) Method D-2488. See the attached Figure -1, lest Pit Site Plan, for test pit locations. Our work scope also included pertinent site research activities, engineering data review, analysis, and preparation of this Report A summary of findings from the exploratory test pits on site is presented in Section 4.1 of this report, and copies of nearby well logs from the Oregon Department of Water Resources online database along with the soil survey mapping of the site are presented in Appendix A. 1.2 Site Information Resources The following site investigation activities were performed and literature resources were reviewed for pertinent site information: Review of USGS Geologic Map of Oregon, Walker and MacLeod 1991 and review of the 2010 Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) Geologic Map Open File Report 0-10-03 Digital Geologic Map of the Southern Willamette Valley by Jason D.

If, during construction, subsurface conditions differ from those encountered in the exploratory test pits, BEI requests that we be informed to review the site conditions and adjust our recommendations, if necessary. 2.1 Site Description The subject site is located at latitude 44.038622° north and 122.902851` west off South 70" Street in Springfield, Oregon. The nearest cross street is Glacier Drive, located approximately 170 -Feet to the north. The site is bordered by developed single-family lots to the north and south, by forested land and Forest Ridge Drive to the west, and South 67" Street to the east. Surface elevations on the site are highest in the southwest corner at approximately -710 -feet above mean sea level (MSL), sloping to an elevation of approximately 680 -feet in the northeast comer of the site Site topography generally slopes down to the north at <10 -degrees. The site vegetation is short grass with scattered oak and fir trees. No surface springs, or areas of water loving vegetation were found during the site investigation. 2.2 Proposed Development Based on documents provided to BEI by the client, the proposed development will be a land subdivision to create eight (8) single-family residential lots each approximately 0.17 -acre in size. A public street extension of S. 69" Place will traverse the site from west to east. 2.3 Site Observations and Soils The USDA NRCS Lane County Area web soil survey maps the majority of the site as Urban land Hazelair-Dixonville complex (127C). This silty clay soil unit is characterized by 3- to 12 -percent slopes, described as moderately well drained, and originating from colluvium derived from sedimentary rock. Visual classification of the near surface soils was performed in accordance with the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) Method D-2488 and the Unified Soil Classification System Branch Engineering, Inc. Page 14 836 S. 70,1 Street BEI PN 21-287 (USCS). The site subsurface soil conditions generally consisted of existing vegetation and topsoil overlying medium stiff, high plasticity clay with the presence of rock fragments 3- to 4 -feet BGS. There were no observations of gross land movement and area fir trees appear relatively straight. The site and surrounding area are mapped as pre -historic (>150 years) landslide and is in a location of moderate risk of slope instability, intermediate to high earthquake hazard, and low amplification hazard. 2.4 Groundwater No groundwater was encountered during the site exploration; however, some seepage was noted in TP -2 emanating from the topsoil zone. The area in generally is known for the presence of springs, seeps, and seasonally wet soil conditions. Surface runoff and subsurface seasonal groundwater should be expected to be encountered during, and after construction of the proposed development. Nearby geotechnical boring logs show no groundwater encountered to a depth of 30 - feet BGS. (See attached Oregon Department of Water Resources well logs in Appendix A). We expect that ground water levels (from the regional water table or perched lenses) will fluctuate with the seasons and should be expected to be highest during the late winter and spring months when rainstorms are more intense and frequent, and soils are near saturation. The hillside topography above the site will contribute to surface water on, and crossing the site. 3.0 GEOLOGIC SETTING The following sections describe the regional and local site geology. Our field findings are consistent with the geologic mapping of the site area on USGS Geologic Map of Oregon (Walker and MacLeod 1991) and the 0-10-03 Digital Geologic Map of the Southern Willamette Valley (Open -File Report DOGAMI, 2010). 3.1 Regional Geology The subject site lies within the southern portion of the Willamette Valley Geomorphic Province (WVGP), east of the Coast Range and west of the Cascade Mountains Provinces. The WVGP is regional lowland that extends from just south of Eugene, Oregon to Vancouver, Washington. In Oregon, this alluvial plain is approximately 130 miles long and 20 to 40 -miles wide (Orr and Orr, 1996). The WVGP is drained by the north flowing Willamette River. Deposits of silt and clay from fluvial and lacustrine environments covered the bedrock to various depths during the presence of low energy streams and lakes in the mid -Willamette Valley. Subsequent compression forces and uplifting of the Cascade and Coast Range Mountains depressed the Willamette River Valley. The rapid uplift of the Cascade and Coast Range mountains steepened strewn gradients causing increased erosion of the mountains and resulting deposition of thick gravel layers incised within the fluvial and lacustrine deposits. The area of the subject site is believed to be underlain by marine Eugene formation of residuum of sedimentary rock from the late Eocene to Oligocene epochs (approximately 20 to 40 million years ago). Branch Engineering, Inc. Page 15 836 S. 70�^ Street BEI PN 21-287 3.2 Site Geology The 0-10-03 2010 DOGAMI Digital Geologic Map of the southern Willamette Valley maps the site geology near a boundary of three geologic units. Landslide and Debris Avalanche Deposits (Qld) are mapped on the site and to the north, south, and cast. To the west the geology is mapped as Early Western Cascades Laves (Twch and Early Western Cascades Volcaniclasuc Rocks and Tuff (Twcv). The Landslide and Debris Avalanche Deposits unit is described as unconsolidated, chaotically mixed and deformed rock, colluvium, and soil deposited by landslides. The Early Western Cascades Laves are described as basalt and basaltic andesite, andesite, and dacite lavas that are part of the upper Eocene Fisher Formation andthe upper Eocene to lower Miocene Little Butte Volcanics. Also mapped in the area to the south and east is the Early Western Cascades Volcaniclastic Rocks and Tuff. Described as terrestrial volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks and ash - flow ruffs. These strata are interbedded with the Early Western Cascades lavas. Rocks in this formation are prone to landslides along high angle contacts with lavas or intrusive rocks and where bedding planes are steeply dipping. The nearby geotechnical boring logs obtained by. the Oregon Department of Water Resources website for the water tower across South 671" Street from the site show silt, and silt with gravel to a depth of 20 -Feel SGS. Below that the logs show siltstone to at least 30 -feet BGS. It is BEI's opinion that the siltstone is more likely to be volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks associated the Early Western Cascades Volcaniclastic Rocks mapped in the site vicinity. Surffcial geology logged in the test pits consisting of basaltic rock with clay/silt, is likely colluvium and landslide deposits. 4.0 CONCLUSIONS 4.1 Summary of Site Subsurface Conditions The site soil consists of medium stiff clay with rock fragments at 3- to 4 -feet BGS. The observed soil conditions in the exploratory test pits are consistent with the USDA NRCS and site geologic mapping, as well as with area well logs, presented in Appendix A. 4.2 Presence of Expansive Soils and Other Special Considerations Based upon previously conducted testing of similar geologic conditions and soil within 0.5 -miles of the site, a low to moderate shrink/swell potential is expected of the upper 2- to 3 -feet of the site soil profile. Exposed soil should be covered with compacted aggregate in a timely manner to minimize fluctuations in the moisture content of the subgrade soil. Slope Instability: The site is mapped as high risk, or existing landslide, on the DOGAMI online hazard viewer. Based on the SLIDO viewer and the IMS 60 report the mapped landslide extends west and another landslide is directly east of the site. The area landslides of the area are classified as deep-seated rock slide -translational and is dated as "pre -historic", indicating a slide event greater than 150 -years old. Surficial soils found in the site test pit excavations are interpreted by BEI as colluvium derived and are likely slide debris or runout from the slide that have weathered in place for many years. Light Detection and Ranging djDAR) imagery of the site and surrounding area indicate smoothed ground contours and no obvious scarps on the site. Branch Engineering, Inc. Page 16 836 S. 70th Street BEI PN 21-287 Nearly all the area surrounding the site is mapped within the landslide inventory and has been developed over the past several decades with no known ground movement impacts. The risks of slope instability on the site may be managed with Geotechnical Engineering oversight and incorporating the recommendations of this report into the design and construction of the project. Recommendations to reduce the risk of slope instability to the site are discussed below. 5.0 RECONMIENDATIONS The following recommendations are for earthwork in the building foundation areas and parking areas. Earthwork shall be performed in general accordance with the standard of practice as generally described in Appendix J of the 2019 Oregon Structural Specialty Code and as specified in this report. All areas intended to directly or laterally support structures, roadways, or pavement areas shall be stripped of vegetation, organic soil, unsuitable fill, and/or other deleterious material such as moisture softened exposed soil. These strippings shall be removed from the site or reserved for use in landscaping or non-structural areas. In areas of existing trees, vegetation, or previously placed fill the required depth of site clearing/stripping may be increased. The subsurface conditions observed in our site investigation test pit excavations are consistent hUwever the test pits only represent a very small portion of the site Should soft or unsuitable soils extend to a depth greater than that described herein or areas of distinct soil variation b discovered, this office Shall be notified to perform site observation and additional excavation may be required. Building Foundation Subgrade Preparation In areas of building foundations, the foundation excavation shall be advanced through any organic topsoil zones or previously placed fill material into suitable subgrade consisting of the colluvial clay: Stumps and roots greater than approximately 1.5 -inches in diameter, and root clusters should be removed from foundation subgrade areas. The depth to suitable subgrade is expected to be approximately 12- to 18 -inches unless in areas affected by tree stumps and vegetation where deeper excavation depths will be required to remove organic materials. To reduce the risk of slope instability, site grading should be kept to a minimum and existing mature vegetation left in place. Due to the hillside nature of the site topography, we expect that the building pads consisting of level terraces separated by vertical cuts may be required. Footings set above vertical cuts shall be set back a distance equivalent to the height of the cut or structurally connected to adjacent foundation elements and any remaining void spaces backfilled. Footings shall be set back horimmally so that bearing splay, calculated by a plane extending downward at a 1:1 (H:V) slope from the outside edge of footings does not intersect the face of excavation, or native slopes. To facilitate drainage and mitigate the potential for differential settlement we recommend that building pads be prepared with a minimum of 8 -inches of compacted open graded rock where the averaged sized rock is at least 3 -inches in diameter. A cap consisting no less than 4 -inches of compacted W-0 aggregate shall be placed on the open graded rock and is recommended to extend a minimum of 12 -inches beyond foundation elements. The base of the open -graded rock shall have a daylight drain at the low point with drainage to a suitable place of disposal. Branch Engineering, Inc. Page 17 836 S. 70th Street SEI PN 21-287 Compacted aggregate with a thickness of 12 -inches or more should be compacted to a minimum 90% relative compaction as determined by modified Proctor (ASTM D-1557) which may be confirmed with compaction testing by nuclear densometer if required by the building permit. If certification by our office of the building pad preparation is required, we request notification to confirm the excavation to suitable subgrade material prior to the placement of structural fill. Pavement Area Subgrade Preparation In pavement areas, topsoil and organics shall be removed to an anticipated depth of 12- to 18 - inches. We recommend that the subgrade be proof -rolled with a loaded 10cy haul -truck, or equipment of equivalent ground pressure, to assess the subgrade consistency and identify potential soft or wet areas. Should pavement area preparation occur during the wet season additional excavation may be required, and proof -rolling atop the base rock layer is recommended, but the client needs to be aware that areas showing pumping or other indications of subgrade failure will require removal of the base rock and further soil excavation. Prior to the placement of compacted aggregate base rock in pavement areas we recommend that the GER, or designated representative, visit the site to observe the subgrade; excavation of areas of unsuitable areas of soil may be recommended to pass subsequent proof -roll. Recommendations for aggregate base rock thickness, compaction, and asphalt concrete (AC) thickness are presented below. Engineered Fill Placement Compacted aggregate placed on the site to support foundations equal or greater than 12 -inches in thickness shall meet the following specifications as included in Section 1803.5.8 of the 2019 Oregon Structural Specialty Code (OSSC). • Unless otherwise described above the fill material shall consist of compacted aggregate. • A modified Proctor (ASTM D1S57) shall be used to determine the maximum dry density of the aggregate to be used. A prior moisture density curve may be submitted from the aggregate source. • The fill material shall be placed in lifts and compacted with loose lift thickness not exceeding 8 -inches in thickness. • Compaction testing by nuclear densometer shall be used in the field to determine the in- place dry density of the fill material. • 90% relative compaction as determined by modified Proctor testing is required for a passing test. • One passing test per structure, or lift, shall be required to confirm conformance with the above specifications. Allowable Bearing Capacity: Conventional perimeter style foundations and spread footings for column loads are suitable for the proposed building construction and we recommend that loads are distributed evenly to mitigate the potential for differential settlement. If foundation areas are prepared as described in this report, the allowable bearing capacity is 1,500 Est and may be increased by 1/3 for short-term loading such as wind or seismic events. Branch Engineering, Inc. Page 18 836 S. 70th Street BEI PN 21-287 Drainage We recommend that the foundation perimeter be backfilled and graded away from the structure as soon as concrete curing allows. Footing drains are recommended on the perimeter of the foundation to be conveyed to suitable downslope location for disposal of runoff. Permanent surface drainage shall be established to convey water to suitable locations for disposal, downslope of the foundation. Final perimeter landscape grades shall slope away from the foundation and surface water shall not be allowed to pond adjacent to the foundation. A subdrain, or outlet for water that may accumulate on the building pad is recommended. The subdrain may consist of a perforated pipe with a downslope outlet, or a shallow ditch, or Swale filled with open -graded rock to convey drainage to a suitable point of disposal, downslope of structures. Erosion of any exposed soil in cut slopes or fill slopes shall be mitigated by establishing vegetation or other means. Excavations For temporary cuts or utility trenches deeper than 4 -feet, slopes should be constructed according to the OSHA Technical Manual for Excavations, using a Soil Type "A" within the clay material. There should be no equipment load or other load surcharges within 10 -feet (or the height of the cut, whichever is greater) of the crest of temporary construction slopes. Utility trenches shall be adequately braced and shored using trench -boxes designed by a structural engineer. Utility trench backfill shall meet the requirements of Appendix B. Structural Pavement Section Recommendations Our recommendations used the guidance of the 1993 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, the 2003 revised Asphalt Pavement Design Guide, published by the Asphalt Pavement Association of Oregon, and engineered structural pavement sections developed for sites with similar soils and anticipated traffic loads. For new asphalt concrete (AC) pavement installation of the public street parking, we recommend a minimum pavement thickness of 4 -inches of AC over a minimum of 12 -inches of compacted 1.5 -inch minus crushed aggregate base material (ABM) placed atop a geotextile separation fabric. Wet season construction may likely require and increased ABM section or use of a bi-axial geogrid. Prior to placement of ABM, any soft soil, wet soil, or organic soil shall be removed from the parking subgrade. We recommend that the subgrade be moisture conditioned and compacted to at least 90% of the material's maximum dry density as determined by AASHTO T-180/ASTM D- 1557 (modified Proctor). The pavement recommendations discussed above are designed for the type of vehicle use on the site after construction completion, not for construction vehicle traffic which is generally header, occurs over a short time, and impacts the site before full pavement sections are constructed. The construction traffic may cause subgrade failures and the site contractor should consider over- building designated haul routes through the site to mitigate soft areas at the time of final pavmg. Branch Engineering, Inc. Page 19 836 S. 70« Street BEI PN 21-287 Provisions for Wet Weather Construction Dry season construction is recommended; however, excavation to subgrade can proceed during periods of light to moderate rainfall provided that the subgrade remains covered with aggregate. A total aggregate thickness of at least 18 -inches may be necessary to protect the subgrade from heavy construction traffic. Construction traffic should not be allowed directly on the subgrade only atop a sufficient compacted rock thickness to mitigate subgrade "pumping". If the subgrade becomes wet and "pumps", no construction traffic shall be allowed on the road alignment. Positive site drainage away from the street shall be maintained if site paving will not occur before the on -set of the wet season. Construction traffic haul routes will require thicker rock sections to mitigate subgrade failure. The mitigation of wet or soft subgrade, if encountered during proof -rolling or by visual observation can either be removed and replaced with compacted crushed aggregate, removed and dried or dried in-place and recompacted, or an area of sufficient size (generally at least 3 - feet beyond the edge of soft material) may be covered with a bi-axial geogrid and covered with compacted crushed aggregate. Seismic Site Classification and Hazards Based on the soil properties encountered in our site pits and on-site well log information, a Seismic Site Class D designation, stiff soil (Table 20.3-1 ASCE 7-16) is recommended for design of site structures. 6.0 REPORT IdMPPATIONS This report has presented BEI's site observations and research, subsurface explorations, geotechnical engineering analyses, and recommendations for the proposed site development.

All areas where structural fills, fill slopes, structures, or roadways we to be constructed shall be stripped of organic topsoil and cleared of surface and subsurface deleterious material, including but limited to vegetation, roots, or other organic material, undocumented fill, construction debris, soft or unsuitable soils as directed by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record. These materials shall be removed from the site or stockpiled in a designated location for reuse in landscape areas if suitable for that purpose. Existing utilities and structures that are not to be used as pact of the project design or by neighboring facilities, shall be removed or properly abandoned, and the associated debris removed from the site. 2. Upon completion of site stripping and clearing, the exposed soil and/or rock shall be observed by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record or a designated representative to assess the subgrade condition for the intended overlying use. Pits, depressions, or holes created by the removal of root wads, utilities, structures, or deleterious material shall be properly cleared of loose material, benched and backfilled with fill material approved by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record compacted to the project specifications. 3. In structural fill areas, the subgrade soil shall be scarified to a depth of 4 -inches, if soil fill is used, moisture conditioned to within 2% of the materials optimum moisture for compaction, and blended with the first lift of fill material. The fill placement and compaction equipment shall be appropriate for fill material type, required degree of blending, and uncompacted lift thickness. Assuming proper equipment selection, the total uncompacted thickness of the scarified subgrade and fust fill lift shall not exceed 8 -inches, subsequent lifts of uncompacted fill shall not exceed 8 - inches unless otherwise approved by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record. The uncompacted lift thickness shall be assessed based on the type of compaction equipment used and the results of initial compaction testing. Fine-grain soil fill is generally most effectively compacted using a kneading style compactor, such as a sheeps-foot roller; granular materials are more effectively compacted using a smooth, vibratory roller or impact style compactor. 4. All structural soil fill shall be well blended, moisture conditioned to within 2% of the material's optimum moisture content for compaction and compacted to at least 90% of the material's maximum dry density as determined by ASTM Method D-1557, or an equivalent method. Soil fill shall not contain more than lo% rock material and no solid material over 3 -inches in diameter unless approved by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record. Rocks shall be evenly distributed throughout each lift of fill that they are contained within and shall not be clumped together in such a way that voids can occur. 5. All structural granular fill shall be well blended, moisture conditioned at or up to 3% above of the material's optimum moisture content for compaction and compacted to at least 90% of the material's maximum dry density as determined by ASTM Method D-1557, or an equivalent method. 95% relative compaction may be required for pavement base rock or in upper lifts of the granular structural fill where a sufficient thickness of the fill section allows for higher compaction percentages to be achieved. The granular fill shall not contain solid particles over 2 -inches in diameter unless special density testing methods or proof -rolling is approved by the Geotechnical Engineer of Record. Granular fill is generally considered to be a crushed aggregate with a fracture surface of at least 70% and a maximum size not exceeding 1.5 -inches in diameter, well -graded with less than 10%, by weight, passing the No. 200 Sieve. 6. Structural fill shall be field tested for compliance with project specifications for every 2 -feet in vertical rise or Son cy placed, whichever is less. In-place field density testing shall be performed by a competent individual, trained in the testing and placement of soil and aggregate fill placement, using either ASTM Method D-1556/4959/4944 (Sand Cone), D-6938 (Nuclear Densometer), or D-2937/4959/4944 (Drive Cylinder). Should the fill materials not be suitable for testing by the above methods, then observation of placement, compaction and proof -rolling with a loaded in cy dump -truck, or equivalent ground pressure equipment, by a trained individual may be used to assess and document the compliance with structural fill specifications. Utility Excavations 1. Utility excavations are to be excavated to the design depth for bedding and placement and shall not be over -excavated. Trench widths shall only be of sufficient width to allow placement and proper construction of the utility and backfill of the trench. 2. Backfilling of a utility trench will be dependent on its location, use, depth, and utility line material type. Trenches that are required to meet structural fill specifications, such as those under or near buildings, or within pavement areas, shall have granular material strategically compacted to at least the spring -line of the utility conduit to mitigate pipeline movement and deformation. The initial lift thickness of bacldll overlying the pipeline will be dependent on the pipeline material, type of backfill, and the compaction equipment, so as not to cause deflection or deformation of the pipeline. Trench backfill shall conform to the General Earthwork specifications for placement, compaction, and testing of structural fill. Geotextiles 1. All geotextiles shall be resistant to ultraviolet degradation, and to biological and chemical environments normally found in soils. Geotextiles shall be stored so that they are not in direct sunlight or exposed to chemical products. The use of a geotextile shall be specified and shall meet the following specification for each use. 89mbuadolAggmeate Separation Woven or nonwoven fabric conforming to the following physical properties: • Minimum grab tensile strength ASTM Method D-4632 180 lb • Minimum puncture strength (CBR) ASTM Method D-6241 3711b • Elongation ASTM Method D-4632 15% • Maximum apparent opening size ASTM Method D-4751 No. 40 • Minimum permittivity ASTM Method D-4491 0.05 s' Drainage Filtration Woven fabric conforming to the following physical properties: • Minimum grab tensile strength ASTM Method D-4632 no lb • Minimum puncture strength (CBR) ASTM Method D-6241 220 lb • Elongation ASTM Method D-4632 50% • Maximum apparent opening size ASTM Method D-4751 No. 40 • Minimum permittivity ASTM Method D-4491 0.5s' Geogrid Base Reinforcement Extruded biaxially or tliaxially oriented polypropylene conforming to the following physical properties: Peak tensile strength ASTM Method D-6637 925 lb/ft Tensile strength at 2% strain ASTM Method D-6637 300 lb/ft Tensile strength at 5% strain ASPM Method D-6637 600 16/ft Flexural Rigidity ASTM Method D-1388 250,000 mg -cm Effective Opening Size ASTM Method D-4751 1.5x rock size
