Re: Exterior Perimeter Drainage System Observation
Richards Lake, Phase 1 Development
2815 Brightwater Court - Lot 164
Fort Collins, Colorado
Terracon Project No. 20005263
Dear Mr. Northen:
A representative from Terracon observed the exterior perimeter drainage system at the referenced
address within the Richard's Lake Subdivision on September 16, 2002, as requested. At the time
of our site visit, a 4-inch diameter, perforated PVC pipe had been placed around the exterior
perimeter of the basement foundation and was observed to exhibit positive gravity flow toward a
sump pit located in the lower level/basement portion of the residence. Washed gravel was
observed below and above the pipe and drainage filter fabric on top of the gravel. The waterproof
dampening was also observed and was uniformly applied to the exterior foundations.
In our opinion the exterior drainage system was constructed in general accordance with the plans
and specifications for the project.
Sincerely,
TERRACON
