Gentlemen:
On January 24, 2000, we visually observed the excavation at Lot 29, Westbury P.U.D. 2nd Filing, (4367
Westbury Drive ), a subdivision of Fort Collins, Colorado. The purpose of this observation was to verify
that the subsurface conditions encountered in the excavation are generally consistent with those outlined
in the soils report performed by Empire Laboratories, Inc. Job No 20955035, dated March 17, 1995.
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.
At the time of our inspection, the excavation had been mostly completed. The garage level excavation
revealed dry silty clay. The basement level excavation revealed dry weathered claystone bedrock.
Groundwater was not observed within the excavation.
These subsurface conditions exposed in the excavation appeared to be generally consistent with those
described in the above referenced soils report, which recommends a drilled pier and grade beam type
foundation system for these subsurface conditions. It is our opinion that an exterior perimeter drain is
required for this structure and should be installed as specified in the above referenced soils report. We
recommend that damp -proofing be installed at the foundation walls for all below grade, habitable living
areas per 1991 UBC Section 2915. All other recommendations provided in the original report, which are
applicable, should be adhered to.
Thank you for consulting with us on this phase of the project. If you have any questions, please feel
free to call.
Sincerely,
