The purpose of this investigation was to provide a general characterization of the soils in the area proposed for a stormwater infiltration device, including a determination of the depth to evidence of a seasonal high water table and estimation of the permeability of the various soil layers. In -situ hydraulic conductivity testing was not conducted. All soil characteristics were described in accordance with the USDA Field Book for Describing and Sampling Soils. This report represents my professional opinion as a Licensed Soil Scientist. A hand -powered auger boring was advanced in the area proposed for the infiltration device (Figure 1) to a depth of 204 inches below ground surface. Soil morphological characteristics indicating a seasonal high water table (SHWT) were not observed within 204 inches below surface. Infiltration rates (permeability) range from 0.2 in/hr in the clay layer between 22 and 55 inches to as high as 2 in/hr in the loamy sand textured soils observed between 1 and 10 inches below surface. As you can see, the permeability slowed below 156 inches below ground surface because the materials were more compact and firm. A soil profile description was collected at location 91 and is attached to this report. I appreciate the opportunity to provide this service and trust that you will feel free to call on me again in the future. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at your convenience.
