Eight borings, designated B-1 through B-8, were performed to depths of approximately 8.5 to 14.9 feet below existing ground surface throughout the project site. Additionally, we have included borings logs from 2018 that were performed on the Troutman property. The following geotechnical considerations were identified from our most recent borings: Partially weathered rock (PWR) and/or hard residual soils were encountered in each of our borings at depths ranging from approximately 1 to 5 feet below the existing ground surface. PWR was encountered at depths as shallow as 3 feet below existing ground surface, and auger refusal was encountered in Boring B-8 at 8.5 feet. Rock, PWR, and some hard residual soils, if encountered in excavations, will require additional effort to penetrate. Further details are included herein. Based on our experience with performing full-scale pile load testing, we expect embedment depths on the order of 6 to 9 feet bgs will be sufficient to resist typical racking system design loads. Slightly shallower embedment depths may be acceptable where shallow PWR and pre - drilling and grouting of piles is performed. The actual design capacity for piles should be determined through a preconstruction full-scale pile load testing (PLT) program. The results of a PLT program performed in conjunction with subsurface site characterization are usually successful in reducing the design embedment depth when compared to design based on site characterization and analytical methods alone We have provided preliminary geotechnical parameters for foundation evaluation based the results of our subsurface characterization and have used these parameters to perform preliminary pile capacity analyses. Based on the analytical analyses presented in this report, we expect that driven piles will not be able to significantly penetrate PWR, and we expect some production piles will encounter driving refusal on PWR. Piles that encounter shallow refusal could be "proof tested" to demonstrate suitable capacity; however, extremely short piles will likely not develop sufficient lateral or uplift capacities. With a proof testing program, a contingency procedure, such as removal and replacement with a drilled -and -grouted section, should be developed for remediation of unsuitable piles. Alternative foundation types, such as pre -drilled piles, concrete ballast or drilled piers, could also be considered for project design. Based on the results of our subsurface investigation and the 2018 North Carolina State Building Code, the seismic site classification for this site is C. The site is expected to be suitable for support of the proposed access roadway when subgrade preparation is performed as described in this report. We also expect the site to be suitable for support of lightly loaded structures and equipment on shallow foundations.

Our initial understanding of the project was provided in our proposal and was discussed during project planning. A period of collaboration has transpired since the project was initiated, and our final understanding of the project conditions is as follows: The project site totals approximately 218 acres located along Wallace Information Provided Road and Bethel Avenue Extension, in Midland, Cabarrus County, North Carolina. The construction is anticipated to include an array of solar photovoltaic Proposed Structures panels on single -axis trackers. The panels will be installed on ground - (assumed) mounted systems likely supported on driven/drilled piles. The proposed improvements will be driven W-section steel piles (W6x7, Proposed Construction W6x15, or similar) and concrete inverter pads. An existing substation (assumed) located at the northern end of the site is anticipated to be utilized. It is estimated that potential maximum loads (using Allowable Strength Design) will be up to: Maximum Loads Lateral/Shear = 2,900 lbs. (assumed) Axial Tension = 2,000 lbs. Axial Compression = 3,000 lbs. Maximum Allowable At ground surface: Less than 0.5 inch Lateral Deflection (assumed) At top of pile (approx. 5 feet): Less than 3 inches Grading plan are currently unavailable, but we expect final grades will be Grading/Slopes close to existing grades.

The residual soils in this area are the product of in -place chemical weathering of rock. The typical residual soil profile consists of silty soils near the surface where soil weathering is more advanced, underlain by sandy silts and silty sands that generally become harder with depth to the top of parent bedrock. Alluvial soils are typically present within floodplain areas along creeks and rivers in the Piedmont. According to the 1985 Geologic Map of North Carolina, the site is within the Carolina Slate Belt. The bedrock underlying the site generally consists of Phyllite and Schist Rock. The boundary between soil and rock in the Piedmont is not sharply defined. A transitional zone termed "partially weathered rock" is normally found overlying the parent bedrock. Partially weathered rock (PWR) is defined for engineering purposes as residual material with a standard penetration test resistance exceeding 100 blows per foot. The transition between hard/dense residual soils and partially weathered rock occurs at irregular depths due to variations in degree of weathering. in upland areas of the Piedmont. Fluctuations in groundwater levels on the order of 2 to 4 feet a typical in residual soils and partially weathered rock in the Piedmont, depending on variations Subsurface Profile We have developed a general characterization of the subsurface conditions based upon our review of the subsurface exploration, laboratory data, geologic setting and our understanding of the project. This characterization forms the basis of our geotechnical calculations and evaluation of site preparation and foundation options. Conditions encountered at each exploration point are indicated on the individual logs found in the Illl xllfllleuretliieui III''°.eeullhte. Based on the results of the borings, conditions below the ground surface can be idealized as follows: Pteellr oui��� selve in II P��teSOLUrce�ft 111 in III'��telllli4lWle Geotechnical Engineering Report Irerracon Duke Energy Solar — Speedway Parcel uuuui Midland,a arrus County, North Carolina September 17, 2019 uuuul Terracon Project No. 71195085 fievReport 3 3 > 8.5 feet Auger Refusal N/A Referenced from the top of ground surface. r. Encountered in each boring location. 3. Encountered in Borina B-06. The boreholes were observed while drilling and after completion for the presence and level of groundwater. Groundwater was not observed in any of our borings while drilling, or for the short duration the borings could remain open. However, this does not necessarily mean the borings terminated above groundwater, or the water levels summarized above are stable groundwater levels. Due to the low permeability of the soils encountered in the borings, a relatively long period may be necessary for a groundwater level to develop and stabilize in a borehole. Long term observations in piezometers or observation wells sealed from the influence of surface water are often required to define groundwater levels in materials of this Groundwater level fluctuations occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of rainfall, runoff and other factors not evident at the time the borings were performed. Therefore, groundwater levels during construction or at other times in the life of the structure may be higher or lower than the levels indicated on the boring logs. The possibility of groundwater level fluctuations should be considered when developing the design and construction plans for the project. Partially weathered rock (PWR) and/or hard residual soils were encountered in each of our borings at depths ranging from approximately 1 to 5 feet below the existing ground surface. PWR was encountered at depths as shallow as 3 feet below existing ground surface, and auger refusal was encountered in Boring B-8 at 8.5 feet. Rock, PWR, and some hard residual soils, if encountered in excavations, will require additional effort to penetrate. Further details are included herein.

Recommendations include critical quality criteria, as necessary, to render the site in the state considered in our geotechnical engineering evaluation for foundations, floor slabs, and pavements. Prior to placing fill, existing vegetation and root mat should be removed. Complete stripping of the topsoil should be performed in the proposed building and parking/driveway areas. The subgrade should be proofrolled with an adequately loaded vehicle such as a fully -loaded tandem -axle dump truck. The proofrolling should be performed under the direction of the Geotechnical Engineer. Areas excessively deflecting under the proofroll should be delineated and subsequently addressed by the Geotechnical Engineer. Such areas should either be removed or modified by stabilizing. Excessively wet or dry material should either be removed or moisture conditioned and recompacted. Fill Material Types Earthen materials used for structural fill should meet the following material property requirements: All locations and elevations Structural fill should consist of approved materials free of organic matter and debris. Frozen material should not be used, and fill should not be placed on a frozen subgrade. A sample of each material type should be submitted to the Geotechnical Engineer for evaluation prior to use on this site. Fill Compaction Requirements Structural fill should meet the following compaction requirements. 8 to 10 inches or less in loose thickness when heavy, self-propelled Maximum Lift compaction equipment is used Thickness 4 to 6 inches in loose thickness when hand -guided equipment (i.e. jumping jack or plate compactor) is used Minimum 100% of soils maximum dry density within 1 foot of finished pavement Compaction subgrade Requirements, e, 3 95% of soils maximum dry density above foundations, below floor slabs, and more than 1 foot below finished pavement subgrade Ptesllr oui���msliive uiou II Ptesou.�urcefu.flll uiou III'telllli4bllle 6 Geotechnical Engineering Report Irerracon Duke Energy Solar — Speedway Parcel uuuui Midland,a arrus County, North Carolina September 17, 2019 uuuul Terracon Project No. 71195085 fievReport Water Content Range 1 11111111 Within 3% of optimum moisture content Maximum density and optimum water content as determined by the standard Proctor test (ASTM D 698). 2 High plasticity cohesive fill should not be compacted to more than 100 percent of standard Proctor maximum dry density. 3. If the granular material is a coarse sand or gravel, or of a uniform size, or has a low fines content, compaction comparison to relative density may be more appropriate. In this case, granular materials should be compacted to at least 80% relative densitv (ASTM D 4253 and D 4254). Utility Trench Backfill For low permeability subgrades, utility trenches are a common source of water infiltration and migration. Utility trenches penetrating beneath the structures should be effectively sealed to restrict water intrusion and flow through the trenches, which could migrate below the structures. The trench should provide an effective trench plug that extends at least 5 feet from the face of the building exterior. The plug material should consist of cementitious flowable fill or low permeability clay. The trench plug material should be placed to surround the utility line. If used, the clay trench plug material should be placed and compacted to comply with the water content and compaction recommendations for structural fill stated previously in this report. All grades must provide effective drainage away from the structures during and after construction and should be maintained throughout the life of the structure. Water retained next to the structures can result in soil movements greater than those discussed in this report. Exposed ground should be sloped and maintained at a minimum 5% away from the structures for at least 10 feet beyond the perimeter of the structures. After structure construction and landscaping have been completed, final grades should be verified to document effective drainage has been achieved. Grades around the structure should also be periodically inspected and adjusted, as necessary, as part of the structure's maintenance program. Where paving or flatwork abuts the structure, a maintenance program should be established to effectively seal and maintain joints and prevent surface water infiltration. Excavations The existing fill and residual soils encountered at the boring locations may be excavated with conventional construction equipment such as bulldozers, backhoes, and trackhoes. Very hard residual soils, PWR, and auger refusal materials were encountered in some of the borings at relatively shallow depths (less than 5 feet) and may be encountered at similar depths in other areas across the site as indicated in the geophysical investigation results performed and reported separately. Relatively deep excavations, such as for underground utility installation, may encounter hard excavation and potential weathered rock that may require blasting or hammering tesllr oui���msliive uiou III'teeOLflircefufl! uiou III'telllli4l0rle "' Geotechnical Engineering Report Irerracon Duke Energy Solar — Speedway Parcel uuuui Midland,a arrus County, North Carolina September 17, 2019 uuuul Terracon Project No. 71195085 fievReport to remove efficiently. Smaller equipment may have difficult excavating PWR. A large trackhoe or bulldozer equipped with a single -tooth ripper maybe required to excavate these materials. Some PWR, especially in confined excavations, and rock will require blasting or impact hammering to efficiently excavate. We recommend that unit rates for mass rock and trench rock be included in the bid package to limit disputes in the event that rock -like materials are encountered. It is our opinion that a clear and appropriate definition of rock should be included in the project specifications to reduce the potential for misunderstandings. A sample definition of rock for excavation specifications is provided below: Mass Rock is defined as any material that cannot be dislodged by a Caterpillar D-8 Bulldozer, or equivalent, equipped with a single tooth ripper, without the use of impact hammers or drilling and blasting. Trench Rock is defined as any material that cannot be dislodged by a Caterpillar 325 hydraulic backhoe, or equivalent, without the use of impact hammers or drilling and blasting. Boulders or masses of rock exceeding cubic yard in volume shall also be considered mass or trench rock, respectively, during excavation. These classifications do not include materials such as loose rock, concrete, or other materials that can be removed by means other than impact hammering, but which for any reason, such as economic reasons, the Contractor chooses to remove by impact hammering. Upon completion of filling and grading, care should be taken to maintain the subgrade water content prior to construction of floor slabs. Construction traffic over the completed subgrades should be avoided. The site should also be graded to prevent ponding of surface water on the prepared subgrades or in excavations. Water collecting over, or adjacent to, construction areas should be removed. If the subgrade freezes, desiccates, saturates, or is disturbed, the affected material should be removed, or the materials should be scarified, moisture conditioned, and recompacted, prior to floor slab construction. As a minimum, excavations should be performed in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR, Part 1926, Subpart P, "Excavations" and its appendices, and in accordance with any applicable local, and/or state regulations. The grading contractor should be responsible for designing and constructing stable, temporary excavations and should shore, slope, or bench the sides of the excavations as required, to maintain stability of both the excavation sides and bottom. Construction site safety is the sole responsibility of the contractor who controls the means, methods, and sequencing of construction operations. Under no circumstances shall the information provided herein be interpreted to mean Terracon is assuming responsibility for construction site safety, or the contractor's activities; such responsibility shall neither be implied nor inferred. teellr oui��� selve in III'��teeou.foirce�ft 111 in III'��telllli4lWle 8 Geotechnical Engineering Report Irerracon Duke Energy Solar — Speedway Parcel uuuui Midland,a arrus County, North Carolina September 17, 2019 uuuul Terracon Project No. 71195085 fievReport Construction Observation and Testing The earthwork efforts should be monitored under the direction of the Geotechnical Engineer. Monitoring should include documentation of adequate removal of vegetation and topsoil, proofrolling, and mitigation of areas delineated by the proofroll to require mitigation. Each lift of compacted fill should be tested, evaluated, and reworked, as necessary, until approved by the Geotechnical Engineer prior to placement of additional lifts. Each lift of fill should be tested for density and water content at a frequency of at least one test for every 2,500 square feet of compacted fill in the building areas and 5,000 square feet in pavement areas. One density and water content test should be performed for every 50 linear feet of compacted utility trench backfill. In areas of foundation excavations, the bearing subgrade should be evaluated under the direction of the Geotechnical Engineer. If unanticipated conditions are encountered, the Geotechnical Engineer should prescribe mitigation options. In addition to the documentation of the essential parameters necessary for construction, the continuation of the Geotechnical Engineer into the construction phase of the project provides the continuity to maintain the Geotechnical Engineer's evaluation of subsurface conditions, including assessing variations and associated design changes. In our opinion, the proposed ancillary structures and equipment pads can be supported on shallow foundations following the completion of subgrade preparation as described in the earthwork section of this report and additional subgrade evaluation at the time of construction. The following sections present our recommendations for shallow foundation design and construction. If the site has been prepared in accordance with the requirements noted in Illl eurtllhvourlll, the following design parameters are applicable for shallow foundations.

Embedment necessary to minimize the effects of frost and/or seasonal water content variations. For sloping ground, maintain depth below the lowest adjacent exterior grade within 5 horizontal feet of the structure. Shallow Mat or Equipment Pad Foundations The base of all foundation excavations should be free of water and loose soil prior to placing concrete. Concrete should be placed as soon as practical after excavating to reduce bearing soil disturbance. Should the soils at bearing level become excessively disturbed or saturated, the affected soil should be removed prior to placing concrete. The foundation bearing materials should be further evaluated at the time of the foundation excavation. A representative of the geotechnical engineer should use a combination of hand auger borings and dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) testing to determine the suitability of the bearing materials for the design bearing pressure. Excessively soft, loose or wet bearing soils should be overexcavated to a depth recommended by the geotechnical engineer. The footings could then bear directly on these soils at the lower level or the excavated soils could be replaced with compacted engineered fill as described in this report.

Shallow Foundation Construction Considerations As noted in Illl eu tllhwourlll, the footing excavations should be evaluated under the direction of the Geotechnical Engineer. The base of all foundation excavations should be free of water and loose soil, prior to placing concrete. Concrete should be placed soon after excavating to reduce bearing soil disturbance. Care should be taken to prevent wetting or drying of the bearing materials during construction. Excessively wet or dry material or any loose/disturbed material in the bottom of the footing excavations should be removed/reconditioned before foundation concrete is placed. If unsuitable bearing soils are encountered at the base of the planned footing excavation, the excavation should be extended deeper to suitable soils, and the footings could bear directly on these soils at the lower level or on lean concrete backfill placed in the excavations.

PWR and/or very dense/hard residual soils were encountered within less than 8 feet from the existing ground surface in each of the borings and was encountered as shallow as 1 foot below existing ground surface. Additionally, site grading may remove some of the existing overburden soil that currently overlies PWR. Driven piles will not be able to significantly penetrate PWR and we expect some production piles will encounter driving refusal on PWR. Therefore, the following installation options should be considered: Piles can be attempted to be driven to anticipated bearing depths, and piles that encounter shallow refusal could be "proof tested" to demonstrate suitable capacity, however, extremely short piles will likely not develop sufficient lateral or uplift capacities. With a proof testing program, a contingency procedure, such as removal and replacement with a drilled -and -grouted section, should be developed for remediation of unsuitable piles. Alternatively, due to the anticipated driving conditions throughout the site, the production piles could be installed into a pre -drilled hole and grouted in place. While this option may not be more economical than driving piles, it will help to avoid the potential for shallow refusal conditions that could result in the need to remove and replace piles and cause construction delays.

Alternatively, we expect that drilled -and -grouted W-section or other steel pile foundations embedded to a minimum of 6 to 9 feet below planned subgrade will be sufficient for support of typical solar panel racking systems. The actual foundation design should be performed in consideration of preconstruction full-scale pile load testing (PLT) program. The results of a PLT program performed in conjunction with subsurface site characterization are usually successful in reducing the design embedment depth when compared to design based on site characterization and analytical methods alone. The recommended PLT program should be performed when more details regarding foundation type and loads become available. The PLT program should also be performed in consideration of the intended production pile properties including section size, section shape, surface texture (e.g. bare steel, 3mil galvanized, etc.), and installation methods, equipment, and procedures. The final structural design for pile foundations should consider anticipated steel loss due to corrosion and the design loads provided by the racking manufacturer. Preliminary Axial Capacity Design Recommendations The axial tensile (pull-out) capacity can be developed from skin friction while the axial compressive capacity can be developed from skin friction and end bearing of individual piles. The parameters in the following table can be used to preliminarily analyze axial capacity of drilled -and - grouted steel piles in support of solar panel racking systems.

Resistance within the upper 18 inches of soil should be neglected as indicated when calculating skin friction. Piles should have a minimum center -to -center spacing of at least 3 times their largest cross - sectional dimension to prevent reduction in the axial capacities due to group effects. If the piles are designed using the above parameters, settlements are not anticipated to exceed 1 inch. We have calculated the geotechnical axial capacities for drilled -and -grouted W6x9, W6x15, and W6x20 pile sections using the preliminary geotechnical engineering parameters obtained during our subsurface exploration.

The pile properties can vary significantly and several manufacturers have proprietary foundation systems which they use for support of the solar arrays. The most effective means of determining and verifying pile capacities for tension, compression, or lateral loads for projects of this type is through pile load testing. The following soil parameters are recommended to estimate the pile capacities in axial tension and compression for planning and estimation purposes. The lateral response can be estimated using L-Pile or similar computer programs. The indicated ultimate skin friction is appropriate for uplift and compressive loading. The skin friction perimeter should be calculated using the "fully -plugged" assumption where the perimeter equals twice the sum of the flange width and web depth. The upper 18 inches of frost -susceptible soils should be neglected when calculating skin friction. Lateral response of the driven pile foundations may be estimated using the L-PILE computer program. The soil profile at the site may be modelled using the properties in the following table: Effective Effective Modulus Undrained Depth Unit Strain Friction Factor Cohesion (feet bgs') p-y model` Weight, Angle, k Factor, [feet bph l Y' V # (pci) (psf) E50 (pc 0-5 Piedmont ResidUa13 110 Strength parameters calculated by L-Pile based on N60 1`5 — 101 values.

The strength of the upper 18 inches of frost susceptible soil should be treated as indicated to account for potential strength loss due to soil disturbance from construction activities, seasonal effects, freeze -thaw behavior, and other factors. Production piles should have a minimum center -to -center spacing of at least 5 times their largest cross -sectional dimension in the direction of lateral loads, or the lateral capacities should be reduced due to group effects. If piles will be spaced closer than 5 times their largest cross - sectional dimension we should be notified to provide supplemental recommendations. lesllr oui���msliive uiou II Ptesou�fuircefu�flll uiou III'1eIllli4l0le 15 Geotechnical Engineering Report Irerracon Duke Energy Solar — Speedway Parcel uuuui Midland,a arrus County, North Carolina September 17, 2019 uuuul Terracon Project No. 71195085 fievReport The previous tables provide generalized average soil parameters for the site based on an evaluation of the soil test borings. We recommend consideration of a comprehensive pile load testing program be performed on the selected foundation elements installed in different locations across the site. Construction Considerations Based on the field exploration, it is our opinion that the soils on the site are not generally suitable for pile installation through driving. Driven piles will not be able to significantly penetrate PWR and we expect some production piles will encounter driving refusal on PWR. If piles are driven on site, piles that encounter shallow refusal could be "proof tested" to demonstrate suitable capacity, however, extremely short piles will likely not develop sufficient lateral or uplift capacities. With a proof testing program, a contingency procedure, such as removal and replacement with a drilled - and -grouted section, should be developed for remediation of unsuitable piles. A more appropriate option based on site subsurface conditions could be to pre -drill at each pile location to a depth of 5 to 7 feet and grout the piles in place. Alternative foundation types, such as concrete ballast or drilled piers, could also be considered for project design. Based on our experience, there is a general correlation between pile drive rate and the axial capacity. Therefore, the recommend preconstruction pile load testing program results should be evaluated in conjunction with test pile installation records to develop a base line for production pile acceptance. For production piles, we recommend that the time rate of installation (seconds per foot of embedment) be recorded as part of the overall quality control program. Automated systems to simplify this task come standard on many new, solar pile driving rigs and several aftermarket systems are available for temporary retrofit. Periodic proof testing should be performed on production piles that do not meet the specified installation criteria. The seismic design requirements for buildings and other structures are based on Seismic Design Category. Site Classification is required to determine the Seismic Design Category for a structure. The Site Classification is based on the upper 100 feet of the site profile defined by a weighted average value of either shear wave velocity, standard penetration resistance, or undrained shear strength in accordance with Chapter 20 of ASCE 7. 2018 North Carolina State Building Code (NCSBC) " leellr oui��� selve in III'��leSOLUirce�ft 111 in III'��1eIllli4lWle 16 Geotechnical Engineering Report Irerracon Duke Energy Solar — Speedway Parcel uuuui Midland,a arrus County, North Carolina September 17, 2019 uuuul Terracon Project No. 71195085 fievReport Seismic site classification in general accordance with the 2018 NCSBC, which refers to ASCE 7. 2 The 2018 NCSBC uses a site profile extending to a depth of 100 feet for seismic site classification.

Referenced from the top of ground surface. A geotechnical investigation was performed by Terracon previously for the Troutman site (Terracon Project No. 71185110). We understand that Duke Energy has acquired permission from Strata Solar to utilize the data collected as part of this previous investigation, Boring Layout and Elevations: Unless otherwise noted, Terracon personnel provided the boring layout. Coordinates were obtained with a handheld GPS unit (estimated horizontal accuracy of about ±10 feet) and approximate elevations were obtained by interpolation from Google Earth. If elevations and a more precise boring layout are desired, we recommend borings be surveyed following completion of fieldwork. Subsurface Exploration Procedures: We advanced the borings with an ATV -mounted rotary drill rig using continuous flight augers. Four samples were obtained in the upper 10 feet of each boring and at intervals of 5 feet thereafter. In the split -barrel sampling procedure, a standard 2-inch outer diameter split -barrel sampling spoon is driven into the ground by a 140-pound automatic hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The number of blows required to advance the sampling spoon the last 12 inches of a normal 18-inch penetration is recorded as the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) resistance value. The SPT resistance values, also referred to as N-values, are indicated on the boring logs at the test depths. We observe and record groundwater levels during drilling and sampling. For safety purposes, all borings were backfilled with auger cuttings after their completion. The sampling depths, penetration distances, and other sampling information was recorded on the field boring logs. The samples were placed in appropriate containers and taken to our soil laboratory for testing and classification by a Geotechnical Engineer Our exploration team prepared field boring logs as part of the drilling operations. These field logs included visual classifications of the materials encountered during drilling and our interpretation of the subsurface conditions between samples. Final boring logs were prepared from the field logs. The final boring logs represent the Geotechnical Engineer's interpretation of the field logs and include modifications based on observations and tests of the samples in our laboratory.

In low permeability soils, accurate Strength determination of groundwater levels is not possible with short term water level (PID) Photo -Ionization Detector observations. (OVA) Organic Vapor Analyzer Soil classification is based on the Unified Soil Classification System. Coarse Grained Soils have more than 50% of their dry weight retained on a #200 sieve; their principal descriptors are: boulders, cobbles, gravel or sand. Fine Grained Soils have less than 50% of their dry weight retained on a #200 sieve; they are principally 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 in -place relative density and fine-grained soils on the basis of their consistency. Unless otherwise noted, Latitude and Longitude are approximately determined using a hand-held GPS device. The accuracy of such devices is variable. Surface elevation data annotated with +/- indicates that no actual topographical survey was conducted to confirm the surface elevation. Instead, the surface elevation was approximately determined from topographic maps of the area.
