Project No. JB -314 24 March 2003 Page 1 1.0 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of a geotechnical study performed at the subject site for the proposed Safeway Fuel Center. The project is located 6425 Pacific Avenue in Stockton, California, as shown on the Vicinity Map, Figure 1. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the soil and geologic characteristics relevant to the design of the proposed development. General soil and foundation engineering design and recommendations are provided based on the physical characteristics of the subsurface materials and the geotechnical limitations created by the site's surface features. 1.2 Proposed Project Development We understand the proposed project will consist of constructing a Safeway Fuel Center at the subject site, consisting of a kiosk, a canopy structure with fuel islands, and underground storage fuel tanks. Maximum structural wall loads are anticipated to be about 2,000 pounds per lineal foot. Site grading is anticipated to be minimal for preparation of the building and canopy structure pads, site surface drainage, and parking and drive area improvements. Please contact our office if the conditions of the project change. We may need to revise our recommendations if changes occur in the project's configuration, the type of construction, or the proposed loads. 1.3 Scope of Services The scope of work for the proposed development included the following: Reviewing project documents provided by the client, Exploring the subsurface soil conditions with three exploratory borings, • Sampling and performing laboratory testing of soil obtained from borings, Analyzing the soil data compiled during the exploration, and Reporting our findings and providing recommendations for site development. This study does not include an environmental assessment or investigation for the presence or absence of hazardous or toxic material in structures, soil, surface water, groundwater, or air on, below or around the project site. lbKorbmachcr Engineering, Inc.
