See description of the map unit for <br /> composition and behavior characteristics of the map unit. <br /> Soil Borings <br /> On April 13, 2023, Live Oak excavated a shallow soil boring on each proposed parcel of <br /> the Site. The borings were four inches in diameter, 3.23 and 3.39 feet deep, and were <br /> excavated by hand auger. The locations of the borings are indicated on Plate 13. <br /> The soil in the borings was similar to that described by the Soil Survey. On Parcel 1, <br /> sandy silt was encountered to a depth of 2.5 feet, followed by cemented sandy silt to 3.0 <br /> feet, followed by silty fine to medium sand to the full depth of the hole. On Parcel 2, <br /> sandy silt was encountered to the full depth of the hole. The soil logs are presented on <br /> Plates 14 and 15. <br /> Discussion of Soil Lithology <br /> Based on the soil observed in the borings, there appears to be good potential for <br /> percolation in the shallow soil zone. Sandy soils generally have a much greater <br /> potential for percolation than fine-grained or cemented soils. However, a percolation <br /> LOGE 2307 Page 5 <br />
