Gentlemen:
We have visually observed the footing form placed at the residence under construction at Lot 12,
Scenic View, (850 S. Overland Trail), a subdivision of Fort Collins, Colorado. This observation was
performed on April 12, 1999.
It is our opinion that the form widths are in substantial conformance with our foundation plan, Job
No. 2154-16-04-01. No substantial amounts of loose material were noted below footing, wall or pad
bearing locations.
This observation does not, nor was it intended to cover setback requirements. It is the
contractors/owners responsibility to verify that the home has been located within the appropriate
building setbacks.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call.
Respectfully,

Gentlemen:
On April 11, 1999, we visually observed the excavation at Lot 12, Scenic Views, (850 S. Overland
Trail), a subdivision of Fort Collins, Colorado. The purpose of this observation was to verify that
the soil conditions encountered in the excavation are generally consistent with those outlined in the
soils report performed by EEC, Job No. 1952074A, dated February 19, 1996. This letter is not
intended to be a summary of the soils report and does not meet the disclosure requirements of
Colorado Senate Bill 13, 6-6.5-101.
A test pit was excavated to a depth of three (3) feet below footing elevation. Bedrock and/or
groundwater was not observed within three (3) feet of footing elevation.
The subsurface conditions exposed in the excavation appeared to be generally consistent with those
described in the above referenced soils report, which recommend a spread footing type foundation
system for these subsurface conditions. No water was encountered at a depth of approximately nine
(9) feet.
We recommend that damp -proofing be installed at the foundation walls for all belowgrade, habitable
living areas per 1991 UBC Section 2915.
Due to the crawlspace construction of the proposed structure, It is our opinion that a perimeter drain
is not required for this structure.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call.
