A representative of Terracon observed the perimeter drain at the above referenced address on
August 23, 2005, 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 beneath the
drainage system. The drainage pipe appeared to exhibit positive drainage toward the sump pit
located within the basement area. We also observed % to 1-inch washed gravel placed above and
below the pipe and drainage filter fabric above the gravel. The waterproofing/damp-proofing was
also observed and in our opinion was uniformly applied to the exterior foundations.
In our opinion the exterior perimeter drain was constructed in general accordance with the plans and
specifications for this project.
Sincerely,
