Re: Supplemental Geotechnical Subsurface Exploration Report
Proposed Apartment Complex Development – Crowne at Suniga
Approximate 11-Acre Parcel – Northeast Corner of 9th Street and Suniga Road
Fort Collins, Colorado
EEC Project No. 1222009
Mr. Dover:
Earth Engineering Consultants, LLC (EEC) personnel have completed the supplemental
geotechnical subsurface exploration as requested for the approximate 11-acre parcel –
proposed Crowne at Suniga apartment complex development located at the northeast corner
of 9th Street and Suniga Road in Fort Collins, Colorado. In the summer of 2022, Earth
Engineering Consultants, LLC (EEC) conducted a subsurface exploration for the referenced
project by drilling a total of twenty-one (21) test borings throughout the property using a Geo-
Probe drill rig in lieu of a more conventional CME – 75 rig due to the previous property
owner’s concerns of potential “crop/terrain” damage. Unfortunately, the Geo-Probe utilized
did not have the torque capacity to turn the hollow stem augers through the very dense cobble
zones encountered across the site and the borings terminated at approximate depths of 5 to 10
feet below existing site grades. EEC prepared an appropriate project-specific Geo-Report for
foundation, slab, and pavement support; however, the civil design team required greater
depths of borings to assist in their utility design approach for the project. EEC hereby
confirms that all of the recommendations provided in the preceding subsurface
exploration/report are valid and those results were confirmed by the findings of this
supplemental exploration/report. For further information and recommendations based on the
21 shallow borings, please refer to our “Subsurface exploration Report” dated June 9, 2022,
EEC Project No. 1222009.
For this supplemental subsurface exploration, EEC completed eight (8) additional test borings
across the site at pre-selected locations determined by the design team, using a conventional
CME-75 drill rig to approximate depths of 20 to 25 feet below the existing site grades at

approximate locations as indicated on the enclosed “Boring Location Diagram”. Upon
completion of the drilling operations of the eight (8) supplemental borings, the open boreholes
were converted into registered piezometer (PZ) devices (approximately 1-inch in diameter
field slotted PVC casings); with the State of Colorado – Division of Water Resources, for
future groundwater elevation/evaluation monitoring purposes. This supplemental study was
performed in general accordance with our proposal dated May 9, 2023.
The purpose of this report is to describe the general soil, bedrock, and groundwater profiles
within the eight (8) supplemental soil borings to provide additional information on the
existing subsurface conditions to greater depths across the site.
EXPLORATION AND TESTING PROCEDURES
The supplemental borings were located in the field by EEC personnel by use of a hand-held
GPS unit using the latitude and longitudinal coordinates as determined from “Google Earth”
and at locations agreed upon with the design team. Those locations should be considered
accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used to make the field measurements.
Photographs of the site taken at the time of our drilling are provided with this report.
The borings were performed using a truck mounted, CME-75 drill rig equipped with a
hydraulic head employed in drilling and sampling operations. The boreholes were advanced
using 4-¼ inch nominal inside diameter continuous hollow stem augers and samples of the
subsurface materials encountered were obtained using split barrel and California barrel
sampling procedures in general accordance with ASTM Specifications D1587, and D3550,
respectively.
In the split barrel and California sampling procedures, standard sampling spoons are driven
into the ground by means of a 140-pound hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The
number of blows required to advance the samplers is recorded and is used to estimate the in-
situ relative density of cohesionless soils and, to a lesser degree of accuracy, the consistency
of cohesive soils and hardness of weathered bedrock. All samples obtained in the field were
sealed and returned to our laboratory for evaluation and testing.

Laboratory moisture content tests were completed on each of the recovered samples. In
addition, the unconfined compressive strength of appropriate samples was estimated using a
calibrated hand penetrometer. Washed sieve analysis and Atterberg limits tests were
completed on select samples to evaluate the quantity and plasticity of the fines in the subgrade
soils. Grain-size distribution/sieve analyses tests were performed on select granular subsoil
samples collected at various intervals across the site. Results of the outlined tests are
indicated on the attached boring logs and summary sheets.
As part of the testing program, all samples were examined in the laboratory by an engineer
and classified in accordance with the attached General Notes and the Unified Soil
Classification System, based on the soil’s texture and plasticity. The estimated group symbol
for the Unified Soil Classification System is indicated on the boring logs and a brief
description of that classification system is included with this report. Classification of the
bedrock was based on visual and tactual observation of disturbed samples and auger cuttings.
Coring and/or petrographic analysis may reveal other rock types.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on results of field borings and laboratory testing, subsurface conditions can be
generalized as follows. The surficial material at each test boring location generally consisted
of a zone of topsoil and/or fescue grass. Encountered beneath the surficial layer/vegetation
were cohesive to slightly cohesive sandy lean clay to silty/clayey sand soils extending to a
granular stratum at depths of approximately 1 to 3 feet below the existing site grades. The
near surface sandy lean clay to silty/clayey sand soils were generally dry, low to moderately
plastic, and were medium stiff/medium dense to stiff/dense. Underlying the upper cohesive to
slightly cohesive soils was a stratum of poorly/well graded sand with varying amounts of silt
and gravel with intermittent coble zones extending to the bottom of the completed borings at
borings B-2 thru B-3, approximately 20 feet below the ground surface or to underlying
bedrock formation at approximate depths of 16 to 19 feet below the site grades at the
remaining borings. The poorly/well graded sand with silt and gravel soils were generally
loose to very dense. Claystone bedrock was encountered beneath the granular stratum and
extended to the depths explored, approximately 20 to 25 feet below the ground surface. The
bedrock was generally hard.

The stratification boundaries indicated on the boring logs represent the approximate locations
of changes in soil and rock types; in-situ, the transition of materials may be gradual and
indistinct. In addition, the soil borings show conditions at the test borings locations;
variations in subsurface conditions can occur relatively short distances from the boring
locations.
Groundwater Conditions
Observations were made while drilling and on May 18 and 24, 2023, within the installed
registered piezometers, to detect the presence and level of groundwater. At the time of
drilling and on May 18 and 24, 2023, groundwater was observed in the test borings at depths
ranging from approximately 7 to 9 feet below existing site grades. The measured depths to
groundwater are recorded near the upper right-hand corner of each boring log included with
this report. The groundwater measurements provided with this report are indicative of
groundwater levels at the location and at the time the measurements were completed.
Notable Comments
One of the primary concerns and the rationale of the supplemental subsurface exploration was
to better determine/evaluate the presence of the groundwater conditions across the site to assist
the civil engineer in designing the site-specific utilities, mainly the infiltration basin as depicted
in the vicinity of our supplemental borings 5 and 6. Of note, groundwater in this vicinity was
measured at depths of approximately 8 feet below existing grades as depicted on the enclosed
log of borings. Also, based on the topographic map provided, it appears fill material across the
site will range from approximately 2-1/2 feet near the northwest portion of the site to as much
as approximately 10 feet near the southeast portion of the site; therefore, groundwater below
finished grades across the site would range at depths of approximately 10 to 16 feet below
finished grades.
Excavating to the design elevations may encounter variations of subsurface conditions. Some
additional effort may be necessary to extract cobble or possible boulder sized materials at
increased depths. Consideration should be given to obtaining a unit price for difficult
excavation in the contract documents for the project. Areas of well-cemented sandstone

DESCRIPTIVE SOIL CLASSIFICATION
Soil Classification is based on the Unified Soil Classification
system and the ASTM Designations D‐2488. Coarse Grained
Soils have move than 50% of their dry weight retained on a
#200 sieve; they are described as: boulders, cobbles, gravel or
sand. Fine Grained Soils have less than 50% of their dry weight
retained on a #200 sieve; they are described as : clays, if they
are plastic, and silts if they are slightly plastic or non‐plastic.
Major constituents may be added as modifiers and minor
constituents may be added according to the relative
proportions based on grain size. In addition to gradation,
coarse grained soils are defined on the basis of their relative in‐
place density and fine grained soils on the basis of their
consistency. Example: Lean clay with sand, trace gravel, stiff
(CL); silty sand, trace gravel, medium dense (SM).
