Site conditions are shown in Text Figure 6 below.

2.3    Groundwater
No signs of groundwater seepage (‘springs’) were observed during our walk-over, nor was groundwater
recorded in Ground Drill boreholes.

2.4    Surface Drainage
The topography is such that surface runoff would be shed generally to the north-east. Runoff is anticipated
to enter the site from the property to the north which is at a higher elevation than the subject site. No surface
drainage was noted to the sides of Marcus Dunes Court pavement and runoff is anticipated to enter the site
from the road pavement. Although field inlet pits were noted within the road pavement located along the
road centerline with a very slight grade in the concrete surface to the drains, which should collect some
surface water from the road. No evidence of significant erosion was observed on the site.

2.5    Vegetation
The ground surface across the site was mostly covered with long grass. Some small tress/shrubs were also
present on the site (refer to Text Figure 6 above). Dense vegetation existed downslope to the east of the
site.

2.6    Buildings and Other Structures
There were no buildings or other structures on the site at the time of our site visit other than perimeter
fencing to the northern and eastern boundaries. Fences were noted to be generally straight with no unusual
bows/deformation.
