A shallow boring was <br /> excavated on Parcel 3, and both shallow and deep borings were excavated on Parcels <br /> 1 and 2 (five borings total). The borings were four inches in diameter and were <br /> excavated by hand auger. Depths of the borings were 3.18, 3.20, 3.45, 0.15, and 7.75, <br /> feet below ground surface (Table 2). The boring locations are indicated on Plate 2. <br /> The soil in the borings was similar to that described by the Soil Survey. For borings P1 <br /> and P2, the surface soil was medium to coarse sandy silt to approximately 4 feet, after <br /> which medium to coarse sand with sift was encountered to a depth of 7.75 feet. For <br /> boring P3, fine to medium sandy silt was encountered to the full depth of the boring <br /> (3.18 feet). The logs for the soil borings are presented in Plates 9 and 10. <br /> LOGE 1107 Page 5 <br />
