Geotechnical Report

Occasionally, the subsurface conditions between and below the completed boreholes and DCP tests may be
found to be different (or may be interpreted to be different) from those expected. Variation can also occur
with groundwater conditions, especially after climatic changes. If such differences appear to exist, we
recommend that you immediately contact this office.

This report provides advice on geotechnical aspects for the proposed civil and structural design. As part of
the documentation stage of this project, Contract Documents and Specifications may be prepared based on
our report. However, there may be design features we are not aware of or have not commented on for a
variety of reasons. The designers should satisfy themselves that all the necessary advice has been obtained.
If required, we could be commissioned to review the geotechnical aspects of contract documents to confirm
the intent of our recommendations has been correctly implemented.

A waste classification is required for any soil and/or bedrock excavated from the site prior to offsite disposal.
Subject to the appropriate testing, material can be classified as Virgin Excavated Natural Material (VENM),
Excavated Natural Material (ENM), General Solid, Restricted Solid or Hazardous Waste. Analysis can take up
to seven to ten working days to complete, therefore, an adequate allowance should be included in the
construction program unless testing is completed prior to construction. If contamination is encountered,
then substantial further testing (and associated delays) could be expected. We strongly recommend that this
requirement is addressed prior to the commencement of excavation on site.
