A representative of Terracon observed the perimeter drain at the referenced site on December 12,
2002, as requested. A four -inch diameter perforated PVC pipe had been placed around the exterior
perimeter of the basement foundation with an impervious PVC membrane placed under the
drainage system. The drainage pipe appeared to exhibit positive drainage toward the sump pit
located within the basement area. We also observed 3/4 to 1-inch washed gravel placed above and
below the pipe and drainage filter fabric above the gravel. The waterproof dampening was also
observed and in our opinion was uniformly applied to the exterior foundations.
In our opinion the exteriorwas constructed in general accordance with the plans and
specifications for this project.
Sincerely,
