This letter is provided as Addendum <br /> No. 1 to our geotechnical study report No. 0901-1144, dated February 10, <br /> 1989. This work was performed as an extension to your Purchase Order No. <br /> 3058,001-008, dated November 14, 1988. <br /> The proposed Cogen facility is to be located adjacent to and southwest <br /> of the Libbey-Owens Ford (LOF) plant in Lathrop, California and is about <br /> one-half mile southeast of the Interstate 5 interchange with Louise Avenue. <br /> The project facilities will be located on a 280-ft by 330-ft, 2-acre <br /> area, which will be elevated 2 to 5 ft above the existing site grade. The <br /> plant area will be surrounded by a perimeter ditch, which will drain surface <br /> runoff into a shallow, 60-ft-wide basin along the south side of the plant <br /> area. <br /> Subsurface Conditions <br /> Soil conditions at the site were investigated in December 1988 by eight <br /> soil borings, which were drilled to 13- and 62-ft depths. To a depth of 14 <br /> to 16-ft, the subsurface materials consist of silty sand with variable <br /> amounts of plate glass fragments. The presence of glass ranges from a <br /> matrix of glass cullet that includes little soil to intermixed soil and <br /> glass to soil with some glass fragments. Silty sand and glass was encoun- <br /> tered to a maximum depth of 16 ft. Beneath this depth, the soils consist <br /> principally of alternating deposits of clay and sand. A t20-ft-thick <br /> stratigraphic sequence composed primarily of stiff to very stiff, lean, <br /> sandy clay extends from down about 14- to 16-ft depth. Groundwater was <br /> encountered at 7- to 11-ft depth in our borings. <br /> McClelland Consultants fwesp,Inc <br /> 2140 Eastman Avenue,Ventura.Caldorma 93003 <br /> (805)6445535, FAX 1805)6424791 <br /> A member of the Fugro-McClelland group of companies <br />
