GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTIONOAKCROSSING GATE TO WONDERLAND ROAD NORTHLONDON, ONTARIO
Dear Mr. Gawley:
This report presents the results of the geotechnical investigation carried out for the design of the proposedreconstruction of Sarnia Road and associated works between Oakcrossing Gate and Wonderland Road North inLondon, Ontario. The length of the reconstruction proposed is approximately 1.3 kilometres. The area of theproject is outlined on the attached Key Plan, Figure 1.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the investigation was to determine the subsurface soil and groundwater conditions at the site andto provide geotechnical engineering recommendations for the design of the proposed works including a bridgestructure, underground utilities, noise attenuation barrier walls, retaining walls, a subdrain system andpavements.
Written authorization to proceed with the geotechnical investigation in accordance with our letter dated February24, 2010 was provided by Mr. Jeff Matthews, P.Eng. of Dillon Consulting Ltd. (Dillon) on July 6, 2010.
The work was carried out in accordance with the Dillon/Golder Associates Ltd. (Golder) Reciprocal MasterAgreement for Consulting Services.
Important information on the limitations of this report is attached.

2.0 BACKGROUND
It is understood that the following works are the major components of the proposed reconstruction of the subjectsection of Sarnia Road:
Replacement of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) bridge with a new bridge;
Construction of some 320 metres of Reinforced Soil Structure (RSS) walls;
Installation of a subdrain system adjacent to the CPR tracks;
Replacement of the existing 600 millimetre diameter trunk watermain CPR undercrossing;
Storm sewer construction;
Installation of about 339 metres of noise attenuation barrier walls;
Widening and minor re-profiling of Sarnia Road, east of Aldersbrook Road, to the north and south; and
Realignment and full reconstruction of Sarnia Road, west of Aldersbrook Road, to a five or six lane cross-section with two bike lanes.
3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION
The site extends approximately 1.3 kilometres along Sarnia Road from just west of Oakcrossing Gate toWonderland Road North Road. The Sarnia Road right-of-way is currently bordered by residential subdivisions.The majority of the alignment topography is gently rolling with ground surface elevations along the alignment of284 metres at Oakcrossing Gate, 279 metres at Aldersbrook Road, 273 metres at Thistledown Way and 278metres at Wonderland Road North. The CPR tracks which intersect the alignment are located in a cutapproximately 8 metres deep and an existing overhead structure allows for the single lane crossing of vehiculartraffic.
4.0 PROCEDURE
4.1 Pavement Evaluation
Following a review of the available background information and an initial site reconnaissance by senior membersof our engineering staff, a Benkelman beam pavement evaluation was carried out on the section of Sarnia Roadeast of the CPR tracks on July 21, 2010. Benkelman beam rebound readings were obtained in all lanes of theroadway at approximately 10 metre intervals following standard Transportation Association of Canadaprocedures.

Based on the measured rebounds, the roadway pavements tested have been divided into relatively uniformsections, as outlined on the Plan, Figure 2, for statistical analysis of the readings. The results of the statisticalanalysis of the readings are given in Table I, which indicates the number of readings in each section, theaverage rebound, standard deviation, coefficient of variation and design rebound at the date of the readings.The maximum anticipated spring design rebound has been estimated by multiplying the July 21, 2010 readingsby a factor of 1.5 which has been based on the magnitude of the readings, the date of the readings, thesubgrade soils at the site and current climatic data.
4.2 Geotechnical Investigation
Subsequently, the borehole drilling program was carried out between July 22 and August 11, 2010. Eighty six(86) augerholes were drilled using a truck mounted power auger supplied and operated by a specialist drillingcontractor. The augerhole and borehole locations are shown on the Location Plans, Figures 3 and 4.Representative auger samples of the major soil strata encountered from the augerholes were obtained.Boreholes 1 to 6 and 13 to 16 were advanced using an all-terrain vehicle mounted power auger supplied andoperated by a specialist drilling contractor. Standard penetration testing and sampling was conducted in theseboreholes at regular intervals of depth. Boreholes 7 to 12 and 17 and 18 were drilled using manually operatedequipment owned and operated by Golder and non-standard penetration testing was carried out using a 31.75kilogram hammer. The recorded driving resistances have been converted to approximate N values as shown onthe relevant Records of Borehole sheets. The subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes andaugerholes are provided on the attached Record of Borehole sheets and in the Summary of Augerholes, TableIII respectively. In addition, site specific borehole data for the site available from our files have been included inthis report. This information consists of:
Borehole 1 - Golder Report No. 891-3494 entitled “Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation, Proposed SarniaGravel Road/CPR Grade Separation Project, City of London, Ontario”, dated January 1990.
Boreholes 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 - Golder Report No. 041-130121 entitled “Geotechnical Investigation,Proposed Sarnia Road High Level Watermain, London, Ontario”, dated July 22, 2004.
The relevant Record of Borehole sheets from these investigations are provided in Appendix A and theapproximate borehole locations are shown on the Location Plans, Figures 3 and 4.
All of the samples obtained during the investigation were brought to our laboratory for further examination andrepresentative laboratory classification testing. The results of the laboratory testing are shown on the Records ofBoreholes, in Table III and on Figures 5 to 13.
Select augerhole samples were placed in sealable plastic bags for headspace vapour testing using both aMiniRAE 2000 photo-ionization detector (PID) calibrated to isobutylene and a Gastech Model 1238MEcombustible vapour detector (Gastech) calibrated to a hexane standard and set in the methane eliminationmode. The PID measures total organic vapours whereas the Gastech measures total combustible vapours.Measured concentrations for each were recorded in units of parts per million (ppm) and are shown in Table III.
The relationship between headspace vapour concentration and contaminant concentration in soil is dependenton soil conditions, including moisture and texture, the compound characteristics and the measurement

procedure. The headspace vapour concentrations are used as a relative indicator of the potential presence ofvolatile petroleum hydrocarbons or other contaminants in soil samples from a specific borehole and, to a lesserextent, between boreholes, and are primarily used in selecting soil samples for chemical analysis. However,based on our experience at other sites, headspace combustible vapour concentrations of less than 100 ppm aregenerally not considered indicative of significant impacts from volatile petroleum hydrocarbons.
Three soil samples (SA 32, SA 34 and SA 37 from augerholes AH-62, AH-66 and AH-70, respectively) withelevated combustibles were selected and submitted to a specialist analytical laboratory for analysis of petroleumhydrocarbons in the F1 (C6-10), F2 (C>10–16), F3 (C>16-34) and F4 (C>34-50) fractions (collectively referred to as PHCF1-F4) as well as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX). One soil sample (SA 37) was alsoanalyzed for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and toxicitycharacteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) for a suite of parameters. The analytical results are summarized inTables IV to VII and a copy of the Certificate of Analysis is provided in Appendix B.
Five soil samples selected from boreholes BH2 (SA7), BH3 (SA7), BH4 (SA7) and augerholes AH81 (SA44) andAH82 (SA45) were submitted to a specialist analytical laboratory. These samples were analyzed for a suite ofmetals and inorganics. The analytical results are summarized in Table VIII and a copy of the Certificate ofAnalysis is provided in Appendix B.
Groundwater conditions were observed and recorded for each borehole and augerhole and these observationsare included on the Record of Borehole sheets and in Table III. Following completion of drilling, sampling andlogging, the boreholes and augerholes were backfilled in accordance with Ontario Regulation (O. Reg.) 902,amended to O. Reg. 372/07.
Members of our geotechnical engineering staff arranged for the underground utility locates, monitored the drillingand sampling operations, logged the boreholes and cared for the samples obtained. The ground surfaceelevations at the borehole locations have been referenced to a City of London benchmark described as “1.52miron bar with brass cap on Aldersbrook Road, 21.1m north of the centreline of Sarnia Road, 11.6m west of thecentreline of Aldersbrook Road, 2.75m southeast of a brick wall.” The elevation of this point is understood to be279.401 metres referenced to geodetic datum.
5.0 SITE GEOLOGY
The subject site lies within the physiographic region of Southwestern Ontario known as the Stratford Till Plainwhich is a broad clay plain predominantly of fine-grained (silt and clay) glacial till extending across the north endof London (Chapman and Putnam, 1984). In areas of north London, sizeable thin surficial deposits of silt overliethe Stratford Till. The Stratford Till Plain consists of ground moraine interrupted by several terminal moraines.The till is described as consisting mainly of calcareous silty clay with a variable content of sand, gravel, cobblesand boulders.
The quaternary geology mapping from the Ontario Department of Mines Preliminary Geological Map No. 238entitled “Pleistocene Geology of the St. Thomas Area (West Half), Southern Ontario” dated 1964 indicates thatthe predominant soil type within the project area is Late Wisconsinan deposits consisting of Arva moraine andrelated ground moraine (silty clay till).

The subcropping bedrock is reported to consist of limestone with a rock surface at a depth of approximately 53metres or at about elevation 228.6 metres near Aldersbrook Road.
6.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
6.1 General
The subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes drilled at the site are detailed on the attached Record ofBorehole sheets and the conditions encountered in the augerholes are summarized in Table III. The followingdiscussion has been simplified in terms of major soil strata for the purposes of geotechnical design. The soilboundaries indicated are inferred from non-continuous samples and observations of drilling and samplingresistance. They may represent a transition from one soil type to another and should not necessarily beinterpreted to represent exact planes of geological change. Further, subsurface conditions may vary significantlybetween and beyond the borehole locations.

A 340 millimetre thick layer of buried topsoil was encountered beneath the clayey silt in augerhole66.
Variable fill materials consisting predominantly of silty clay, clayey silt or sand and gravel were encountered inboreholes 1 to 3, 5, 7 to 9, 11, 12 and 15 to 18 as well as in augerholes 40, 59 and 77. Additional fill layerscontaining silt, silty clay, sandy silt, silty sand or sand were infrequently encountered. The fill layers were about0.1 to 5.6 metres thick. The fill materials had N values, as determined in the standard penetration test, of 2 to 20blows per 0.3 metres with water contents of 4 to 31 per cent.
The results of the grain size analysis carried out on a sample of the silty clay fill are shown on Figure 7.

The clayey silt till is hard with N values of 30 blows per 0.3 metres to 70 blows per 125 millimetres. The clayeysilt till had natural water contents of 6 to 18 per cent with an average water content of about 12 per cent. Theresults of Atterberg limits determinations indicated plastic limits of 14 to 15 per cent and liquid limits of 24 to 29per cent. Grain size distribution curves for samples of the clayey silt till recovered from the standard penetrationtesting are shown on Figure 10.
Although not specifically encountered in the boreholes, the presence of cobbles and boulders in the clayey silt tillstrata should be anticipated.

6.3 Groundwater Conditions
All of the boreholes remained dry during and on completion of drilling except for boreholes 11 and 17 whichencountered groundwater at depths of 1.0 and 0.4 metres or between elevations 273.27 and 274.85 metres,respectively. It should be noted that borehole 11 encountered a clay drain tile which was wet and may notnecessarily reflect the actual groundwater level.
However, it should be noted that the groundwater level at the site will fluctuate in response to seasonalfluctuations in precipitation and runoff, possibly rising during and following periods of extended wet weather.
6.4 Results of Chemical Analyses of Soil Samples
6.4.1 Discussion of Environmental Standards
Current environmental standards for soil and groundwater are identified in the MOE document “Soil, GroundWater and Sediment Standards for Use Under Part XV.1 of the Environmental Protection Act” (March 2004)(MOE Standards). In December 2009, a new set of standards were legislated in Ontario and will come intoeffect in July 2011. The MOE Standards identify set of standards for background site conditions and two sets ofgeneric standards: one set for a potable groundwater condition (Table 2 in the MOE Standards) and a lessstringent set for a non-potable groundwater condition (Table 3). The site is served by a municipal drinking watersupply that does not rely on the local groundwater. Therefore, the generic standards considered consistent withthe land use were the standards for industrial/community/ commercial land use for a non-potable groundwatercondition (Table 3 of the MOE Standards). The chemical results were also compared to the Table 1 Standardsfor purposes of disposal. Considering the fine grained soils encountered at the Site (i.e. silty clay till), the fineand medium grained soil criteria were considered appropriate for the Site.

6.4.2 Analytical Results for Soil Samples
The analytical results from the chemical analysis of the soil samples are summarized in Tables IV to VIII. Alsoincluded in Tables IV to VIII, for the purposes of comparison, are the corresponding background and generic soilquality assessment criteria from the 2004 and 2009 MOE Standards.
The analytical results for PHC F1-F4 and BTEX in soil are summarized in Table IV. Elevated concentrations ofBTEX and PHC F1-F4 were detected in each of the soil samples submitted for analysis. Exceedances of theenvironmental criteria are summarized below:
SA 32 (AH-62): Total xylene was detected at a concentration (0.18 micrograms/gram - µg/g) exceeding the2004 and 2009 Table 1 Standards of 0.002 and 0.05 µg/g, respectively. Concentrations of PHC F1 (11µg/g), F2 (140 µg/g), F3 (640 µg/g) and F4G (7,500 µg/g) were measured exceeding the 2009 PHC F1 toF4 Table 1 Standards of 10 µg/g, 10 µg/g, 50 µg/g and 50 µg/g, respectively. The PHC F4G concentrationalso exceeded the 2004 and 2009 Table 3 Standard of 6,600 µg/g.
SA 34 (AH-66): Ethylbenzene (0.18 µg/g) and total xylene (1.2 µg/g) were detected at concentrationsexceeding the 2004 and 2009 Table 1 Standards of 0.002 and 0.05 µg/g (for both ehtylbenzene andxylene), respectively. Toluene (0.04 µg/g) was detected at a concentration exceeding the 2004 Table 1Standard of 0.002 µg/g. Concentrations of PHC F1 (48 µg/g), F2 (130 µg/g), F3 (1400 µg/g) and F4G(14,000 µg/g) were measured exceeding the 2009 PHC F1 to F4 Table 1 Standards of 10 µg/g, 10 µg/g, 50µg/g and 50 µg/g, respectively. The PHC F4G concentration also exceeded the 2004 and 2009 Table 3Standard of 6,600 µg/g.
SA 37 (AH-70): Ethylbenzene (0.22 µg/g) and total xylene (1.6 µg/g) were detected at concentrationsexceeding the 2004 and 2009 Table 1 Standards of 0.002 and 0.05 µg/g (for both ehtylbenzene andxylene), respectively. Toluene (0.05 µg/g) was detected at a concentration exceeding the 2004 Table 1Standard of 0.002 µg/g. Concentrations of PHC F1 (50 µg/g), F2 (190 µg/g), F3 (1300 µg/g) and F4G(18,000 µg/g) were measured exceeding the 2009 PHC F1 to F4 Table 1 Standards of 10 µg/g, 10 µg/g, 50µg/g and 50 µg/g, respectively. The PHC F4G concentration also exceeded the 2004 and 2009 Table 3Standard of 6,600 µg/g.
The analytical results for PAHs in soil sample SA 37 are summarized in Table V. Concentrations of 1-methylnaphthalene (0.5 µg/g), 2-methylnapthlane (0.7 µg/g) and naphthalene (0.4 µg/g) exceeded the 2004Table 1 standards of 0.26 µg/g, 0.29 µg/g and 0.09 µg/g. 2-methylnaphthalene and naphthalene also exceededthe 2009 Table 1 standards of 0.59 µg/g and 0.09 µg/g, respectively.
The analytical results for PCBs in soil sample SA 37 are summarized in Table VI. Aroclor 1248 and Aroclor1260 were detected; however, the total PCB concentration was below the 2004 and 2009 Table 1 and Table 3standards.
The results of the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) testing on soil sample SA 37 is summarizedin Table VII. The soil sample was submitted for TCLP testing of metals, inorganics, volatile organic compounds(VOCs), benzo(a)pyrene and PCBs. The results are compared to Ontario Regulation 558, Schedule 4, LeachateQuality Criteria. All concentrations were below their respective Schedule 4 criteria; therefore, the soil
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 11
represented by sample SA 37 is considered non-hazardous (characteristic leachate non-toxic) for disposalpurposes.
The analytical results for metals and inorganics in soil samples from the boreholes are summarized in Table VIIIand a copy of the Certificate of Analysis is included in Appendix B. As indicated in Table VIII, none of thesamples contained metal concentrations above the Table 1 standards for all other types of property uses (otherthan agricultural); however, samples BH3 SA7, AH81 SA44 and AH82 SA45 exceeded the 2004 and 2009standards for electrical conductivity (EC) and the 2004 standards for chloride. Samples AH81 SA44 and AH82SA45 also exceeded the 2004 and 2009 standards for sodium adsorption ratio (SAR). The 2009 MOE Table 1standards do not include a standard for chloride as it is considered that measurement of EC values will accountfor chloride inputs.
The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) policy A.R. 6.00.03 indicates that for the purposes of pit/quarryrehabilitation, the soil quality standards for SAR and EC are intended to ensure good plant growth and are onlyintended to be applied when soil is used as surface soil (i.e. <1.5 metres depth). Therefore, the soil with SARand/or EC values exceeding Table 1 standards may be used for pit/quarry rehabilitation provided that it is placedat a depth greater than 1.5 metres.
If the soil is removed after July 2011, the 2009 MOE Table 1 standards will be applied. Therefore, the soilrepresented by all soil samples submitted for analysis can be disposed at a pit at a depth greater than 1.5metres below ground surface.
7.0 DISCUSSION
7.1 General
This section of the report provides our interpretation of the factual geotechnical data obtained during theinvestigation and it is intended for the guidance of the design engineer. Where comments are made onconstruction, they are provided only to highlight those aspects which could affect the design of the project.Contractors bidding on or undertaking the works should make their own interpretation of the subsurfaceinformation provided as it affects their proposed construction methods, equipment selection, scheduling and thelike.
Sarnia Road is to be reconstructed between Oakcrossing Gate and Wonderland Road North Road. West ofAldersbrook Road, Sarnia Road will be realigned and fully reconstructed to a five or six lane cross-section withtwo bicycle lanes and storm sewers. East of Aldersbrook Road, it is currently proposed to utilize the existingpavements with widenings to the north and south. The existing CPR bridge will be replaced with a new bridgeand the associated embankments will be modified including the construction of RSS retaining walls. A new CPRundercrossing for the trunk watermain is required and noise attenuation walls are also proposed.

7.2 Pavements
It is proposed to upgrade and reconstruct Sarnia Road from Oakcrossing Gate to Wonderland Road North.West of Aldersbrook Road, Sarnia Road will be realigned and fully reconstructed to a five or six lane cross-section with two bike lanes. East of Aldersbrook Road, it is currently proposed to utilize the existing pavementswith sliver widenings to the north and south.
Based on traffic data provided by Dillon, it is understood the projected 2027 Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT)for the section of Sarnia Road west of Wonderland Road is 20,000 vehicles. The per cent truck traffic is notprovided but has been assumed to be 4 per cent for pavement design purposes. This corresponds to a designtraffic loading of about 400 heavy axle loads per lane per day, with 70 per cent of the heavy axle loads in thedesign (outside) lanes.
For pavement design purposes, considering the nature of the roadway, the subgrade conditions and the currentand proposed traffic loadings, the section of Sarnia Road east of Aldersbrook Road should be assignedmaximum Benkelman beam rebound criteria of 0.9 millimetres for the driving lanes and 1.1 millimetres for thepassing and turning lanes.
Table II indicates the additional pavement structure required to upgrade the existing pavements to meet both thecurrent and proposed heavy traffic loadings based on the results of the July 21, 2010 testing. Based on theresults of the geotechnical investigation and the Benkelman beam pavement evaluation, the majority of thepavements in the subject section of Sarnia Road are suitable for minor upgrading to meet the design criteria.
The areas requiring upgrading are summarized below:

Both the westbound and eastbound driving lanes, from approximately 110 metres west to 140 metres east ofAldersbrook Road, exhibited higher rebounds than elsewhere during testing. The results of the geotechnicalinvestigation indicated that the subgrade conditions in these sections generally consisted of silty clay withoccasional topsoil. Unless the topsoil is removed, the potential for some future deformation, settlement and/orcracking of the completed pavements should be anticipated.
As noted above, Sections 1, 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 17 and 18 should be reconstructed. Sections 3, 13, 14 and 16can be upgraded with a nominal asphalt overlay or the existing asphalt replaced. The remaining sections do notrequire upgrading to meet the design criteria. In these sections, it is understood that only very minor re-profilingis required and the existing asphalt will be removed, the surface of the Granular A base adjusted and the asphaltreplaced with 50 millimetres of surface asphalt and 110 millimetres of binder asphalt. In addition, localizedrepairs should be carried out to all areas currently exhibiting cracking and/or distress. It should be noted that arelatively thin pavement structure without granular subbase was encountered at approximately Station 3+525 inthe area immediately south of the curbed concrete median. This area should be further investigated duringconstruction to determine if reconstruction is necessary.
Based on the above, the sections noted above requiring a new pavement structure, as well as all of the newpavements, should be provided with the following components constructed on an approved subgrade:
Component Thickness (mm)
HL 3 Surface Course 50HL 8 Binder Course 110 (2@55)Granular A Base 150Granular B Subbase 500
Prior to constructing the new pavements, all subgrade areas should be extensively proofrolled under thedirection of the geotechnical engineer. Any areas of excessively wet, soft or deleterious materials should besubexcavated and reconstructed using imported Granular C or approved site material uniformly compacted inmaximum 300 millimetre thick loose lifts to 95 per cent of standard Proctor maximum dry density (SPMDD).
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 14
The subexcavation of unsuitable materials should extend laterally beyond the edge of the proposed roadway to apoint 1 metre plus the depth of unsuitable material past all settlement sensitive structures including the proposedsidewalk.
The asphalt should be produced, placed and compacted in accordance with the current Ontario ProvincialStandard Specifications for heavy duty pavements. The Granular A base and Granular B subbase materialsshould be uniformly compacted to 100 and 98 per cent, respectively, of SPMDD. Short perforated stub drainsshould be provided at subgrade level at all catchbasins. Given the relatively heavy traffic loadings, considerationshould be given to the use of a premium surface course asphalt mixture.
Construction activities should be coordinated to minimize the amount of construction traffic over the unprotectedexposed subgrade soils. The surface asphalt should be deferred at least one year following placement of theupper binder course.
Where new construction abuts existing pavements, milled notches 50 millimetres deep by 500 millimetres wideshould be provided to create a staggered joint. Care should be taken to properly tack coat all butt joints andmilled surfaces.
7.3 Excavations
The discussion in this section is general in nature and is applicable to the project as a whole. Additionalcomments relating to excavations for specific components of the project are presented in separate sections.
Excavations for the works proposed at this site will generally be less than 8 metres in depth and will primarilyencounter the existing pavement structure, surficial fill or topsoil overlying fill, silty clay and silty clay till.Contractors should be prepared for the presence of cobbles and boulders within the silty clay till.
Groundwater was encountered in two of the boreholes drilled as part of the current investigation. Thegroundwater level is subject to fluctuations and the depth of excavation below the groundwater level will dependon the time of year of construction. Also, perched groundwater may be present within the granular fill layers.Surficial water seepage into the excavations should be expected and will be heavier during periods of sustainedprecipitation.
Temporary open cut slopes within the fill materials should be maintained no steeper than 1 horizontal to 1vertical. Flatter side slopes may be necessary in areas with saturated or loose granular fills.
All excavations should be carried out in accordance with the latest edition of the Ontario Occupational Healthand Safety Act and Regulations for Construction Projects. The fill materials and saturated granular materialsbelow the groundwater level would be classified as Type 3 soils, the native granular soils above the groundwaterlevel and the silty clay would be classified as Type 2 soils and the silty clay till would be classified as a Type 1soil.

7.4 CPR Bridge
The existing single lane steel truss bridge which conveys traffic over the CPR tracks is to be replaced with a newbridge in conjunction with the proposed widening of Sarnia Road. The replacement structure will be 94.9 metreslong with a 14.5 metre span and will feature pile supported integral abutments.
As part of the geotechnical investigation for the project, boreholes 1 to 6, inclusive, were drilled adjacent to theproposed bridge at the locations shown on the attached Location Plan, Figure 3.
7.4.1 Subsurface Conditions
North Abutment
Boreholes 1, 2 and 6 were drilled adjacent to the location of the proposed north abutment. Based on theborehole information, the topsoil in boreholes 1 and 2 was 0.2 metres thick and was underlain by fill layers toelevations 280.3 and 276.4 metres, respectively. In borehole 1, the fill was underlain by silty clay till followed bysand and gravel, sandy silt and clayey silt till. Borehole 1 was terminated in the clayey silt till at elevation 264.5metres. In borehole 2, the fill was underlain by silty clay till followed by sandy silt till, sand and gravel, sandy silttill and silty sand and gravel. Borehole 2 was terminated in the silty sand and gravel at elevation 262.9 metres.Borehole 6 encountered silty clay from the existing ground surface to elevation 264.5 metres. The silty clay wasunderlain by fine sand, sandy silt till, silt with silty clay layers and silty clay. Borehole 6 was terminated in thesilty clay at elevation 256.8 metres.
South Abutment
Boreholes 3, 4 and 5 were drilled adjacent to the location of the proposed south abutment. Based on theborehole information, borehole 3 encountered the existing pavement structure followed by fill which wasunderlain by silty clay till, clayey silt till, silty fine sand, clayey silt till, silty clay, silt and silty clay. Borehole 3 wasterminated in the silty clay at elevation 261.8 metres. Borehole 4 encountered surficial topsoil which wasunderlain by silty clay till, silty clay, sandy silt till, silty fine sand and clayey silt till. Borehole 4 was terminated inthe clayey silt till at elevation 262 metres. Borehole 5 encountered surficial topsoil which was underlain by a 5.6metre thick layer of silty clay fill, followed by silty clay, silty clay till, silty clay, silt, sandy silt till, silty sand, sandysilt till, clayey silt till and sandy silt till. Borehole 5 was terminated in the sandy silt till at elevation 262.3 metres.

7.4.2 Deep Foundations
It is anticipated that HP 310 x 110 steel H-piles would be used to found the structure as they provide theflexibility required for integral abutments. Pre-augering and placement of a corrugated steel pipe liner filled withloose sand around the upper 3 metres of the pile is recommended to reduce resistance to lateral movement.
The following table summarizes the factored axial geotechnical resistances at Ultimate Limit States (ULS) andgeotechnical resistances at Serviceability Limit States (SLS) which could be used for HP 310 x 110 piles drivento practical refusal in the very dense silt, sandy silt till, silty sand, sand and gravel and/or silty fine sand. Therecommended minimum hammer energy for driving the H-piles to refusal is 40 kiloJoules.

The actual pile penetration and pile set characteristics will be dependent, to some extent, upon the drivingequipment selected by the contractor. It is recommended that, following the selection of the driving equipment,the piling contractor submit for review by the geotechnical engineer his proposed pile driving criteria based onthe characteristics of the hammer and equipment intended for use. Further, the pile driving operation should becarefully monitored by this office to confirm that the design pile capacities are being achieved.
Piles should be retapped in order to confirm the set after adjacent piles have been driven. The piles should alsobe equipped with Type I driving shoes in order to minimize tip damage during driving.
Negative skin friction loads are expected to be negligible given the proposed grading and relatively low graderaise, the very stiff to hard consistency of the underlying silty clay, silty clay till and clayey silt till deposits and thepresence of low compressibility layers of very dense silt, sandy silt till, silty sand and sand and gravel.
The pile caps should be provided with a minimum of 1.2 metres of soil cover or thermal equivalent for frostprotection.

7.5 Retaining Walls
7.5.1 General
It is understood that reinforced soil system (RSS) walls will be constructed adjacent to the north and south sidesof the proposed CPR bridge. The RSS walls will be 5.0 to 10.4 metres high and have a vertical facing. Thereinforced earth fills will be up to approximately 9 metres high including the proposed grade raise. Based on thedrawings provided, the RSS walls are to be founded at about elevation 273.4 metres. An inferred sectionthrough the RSS walls and embankments is shown on Figure 14.
Boreholes 7 to 12, inclusive, were drilled adjacent to the toe of the existing embankments in the areas of theRSS walls at the locations shown on the attached Location Plan, Figure 3.
7.5.2 Site Preparation
All surficial topsoil, organic, loose, soft and deleterious or unsuitable fill materials should be stripped from areasof the proposed RSS wall footings. These deposits are not considered to be suitable as subgrade materials orfor support of the RSS walls. The exposed subgrade should be proofrolled under the supervision of qualifiedgeotechnical personnel to identify any softened areas in the subgrade soils. Care should be taken to limit thedisturbance of the exposed subgrade soils. If disturbance does occur, then additional subgrade preparation willbe required. Weak, disturbed or unsuitable soils should be replaced with Granular A uniformly compacted to 98per cent of SPMDD to underside of footing elevation.
7.5.3 Foundations
Based on the results of the investigation, the RSS walls may be founded on the firm to stiff silty clay and/or siltyclay till at about elevation 273.4 metres. To provide consistent founding conditions, a 0.3 metre thick levellingpad consisting of compacted Granular A should be provided below the footing. Assuming that the RSS wall actsas a unit and utilizes the full width of the reinforced soil mass, which is generally taken as 0.7 times the height ofthe wall, and a footing width of 0.5 metres to support the facing panels, a factored geotechnical resistance atULS of 225 kilopascals may be used for the design of each RSS wall mass founded on a properly preparedsubgrade at both abutments. The geotechnical resistance at SLS, for 25 millimetres of settlement, consideringthe footing loading only, may be taken as 150 kilopascals.
The proprietary RSS walls should be designed by the supplier and constructed in accordance with hisspecifications. The geotechnical aspects of the global stability of the detailed retaining wall design should bereviewed by this office following submission of the design and prior to construction. Effective drainage of thewall backfill should be provided.
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 18
Assuming that the founding soils are not loosened/disturbed during excavation and footing construction, thefollowing angle of friction and corresponding unfactored coefficient of friction, tan , may be used for theinteraction between the Granular A pad and the native silty clay/silty clay till soils:
angle of friction 28°
tan 0.53
In accordance with the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC), a factor of 0.8 is to be applied incalculating horizontal resistance.
Lateral Earth Pressures
The lateral pressures acting on the retaining wall will depend on the backfill soils, the type and method ofplacement of the backfill materials behind the walls, the subsequent lateral movement of the structure and thetype of reinforcement (geotextile, geogrids or metallic strips).
Typically, RSS wall suppliers and fabricators will complete the engineering related to lateral earth pressure onthese walls once the backfill materials have been selected. For compacted City of London Granular B materials,typical lateral earth pressures may be based on a lateral earth pressure coefficient of 0.4 and a unit weight of 22kilonewtons per cubic metre (kN/m3) provided the wall backfill remains drained. Horizontal stresses induced bysurcharges should also be assessed using this coefficient of lateral earth pressure. In addition, stresses arisingfrom compaction equipment and construction procedures must be taken into account.
7.5.4 Backfill
The Granular B wall backfill should be placed in maximum 200 millimetre thick loose lifts and uniformlycompacted to at least 98 per cent of SPMDD.
The general embankment fills should consist of approved excavated material or clean, granular material such asGranular C compacted to at least 98 per cent of SPMDD. Embankment fill materials should be placed inmaximum 300 millimetre thick loose lifts and properly benched into existing embankments in accordance withOntario Provincial Standard Drawing (OPSD) 208.010.
7.6 Temporary Shoring/Track Protection
Based on the general arrangement drawings provided by Dillon, it appears that temporary excavation supportsystems for work adjacent to the railroad track will not be required. Excavations for the crash wall and RSS wallfootings should be able to maintain a minimum 1.5 horizontal to 1 vertical slope from the end of the railway tiesto the base of the excavations.
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 19
If temporary shoring/track protection is required, it shall be designed and monitored in accordance with theAmerican Railway Engineering and Maintenance Association (AREMA) design manual and CPR requirements.
7.7 Foundations for Noise Attenuation Barrier Walls
Noise attenuation barrier walls will be erected along the north property limit where residential properties backonto Sarnia Road, approximately from Station 2+500 to 2+789.
The soil conditions at the noise wall locations generally consist of surficial topsoil and fill overlying nativedeposits of firm to stiff silty clay or silty clay till.
The selected noise barrier wall design is to be of a proprietary nature incorporating pre-cast panels and requiringthe use of caissons founded in competent strata. The soil parameters required for the design of caissonfoundations are given below:
Soil Type cu(kPa) (°) Kp (kN/m3)
’(kN/m3)
Existing Silty Clay Fill 25 20 - 19 9Silty Clay 150 30 3.0 20 10Silty Clay Till 150 30 3.0 20 10
It is recommended that the noise barrier walls be supported using conventional augered caissons with diametersof 0.6 to 0.9 metres. The caisson design should be checked for both drained (c’, ’) and undrained conditions(cu) and the larger of the two calculated caisson depths shall govern.
The passive resistance within the upper 1.2 metres below ground surface should be neglected to account forfrost action and the local presence of topsoil and fill materials. In addition, for foundation design, full passiveresistance will be mobilized only where the ground surface in front of and behind the caissons is level. Wheresloping ground is present adjacent to the noise barrier wall, the Kp values used in the calculation of the passiveresistance should be adjusted to account for the presence of the sloping ground.
Caisson construction for the noise barrier wall foundations will generally require excavation through primarilycohesive fills (where present) which are underlain by the silty clay and silty clay till deposits which areoccasionally interbedded with granular deposits. These could be susceptible to disturbance during caissonexcavation and construction. The use of a temporary liner to advance the auger holes is recommended in orderto minimize disturbance and ground loss during drilling and concrete placement.

January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 20
7.8 Storm Sewer Construction
New storm sewers are to be constructed along the south side of Sarnia Road from approximately Station 2+005to 2+955. The sewer inverts will be between elevations 272 and 281 metres or at 0.8 to 4.6 metres below theexisting road surface.
7.8.1 Excavations
Based on the results of the investigation and the proposed invert depths, excavations for the proposed sewerswill encounter the surficial topsoil and fills and extend into the underlying silt, silty clay and/or silty clay till.Excavations through the existing roadway will encounter the existing pavement structure. Further comments onexcavations are provided in Section 7.3.
Localized groundwater seepage from the silt, silty clay and silty clay till may be adequately handled by pumpingfrom properly filtered sumps in the base of the excavations. Care should be taken to prevent inflow of surfacewater into the excavations. It is recommended that installation of the storm sewer proceed in short sections thatcan be readily backfilled in one day.
7.8.2 Bedding
Bedding for the storm sewer pipes should consist of suitably graded granular material consistent with the type,size and class of pipe and City of London standards. Care should be taken to extend the bedding through all filland topsoil to bear on native, undisturbed soils.
Bedding materials should be placed in maximum 300 millimetre thick loose lifts and uniformly compacted to 95per cent of SPMDD. In areas where groundwater seepage may be of sufficient volume that the bedding materialcannot be adequately compacted, it may be necessary to use 19 millimetre clear stone with a non-wovengeotextile surround. Where appropriate, the clear stone bedding would also facilitate groundwater control andpumping from sumps, as required. Should a trench liner box be employed, measures should be taken to ensurethat the compacted pipe bedding is not disturbed when the liner box is moved.
7.8.3 Trench Backfill
Based on the results of the investigation, the excavated materials from the storm sewer trenches will consistprimarily of fill, silt, silty clay and silty clay till.
Provided that all deleterious materials such as the existing asphalt, topsoil, organics and unsuitable fill materialsare wasted together with any excessively wet materials, the remaining drier portions of the excavated materials
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 21
are considered suitable for use as trench backfill. It should be noted that much of the silt, clayey silt and siltyclay layers have natural water contents which are greater than the laboratory optimum water content forcompaction and, as a result, if these materials cannot be dried somewhat, they will need to be wasted andreplaced with imported Granular C backfill.
The general trench backfill should be placed in maximum loose lift thicknesses of not greater than 300millimetres and uniformly compacted to at least 95 per cent of SPMDD. The upper one metre of backfill insettlement sensitive areas and where the backfill forms the roadway subgrade should be placed in 200 millimetrelifts and uniformly compacted to at least 98 per cent of SPMDD.
7.9 Replacement Watermain
7.9.1 General
It is proposed to replace the existing CPR undercrossing of the 600 millimetre diameter water transmission mainusing a trenchless installation method. The new undercrossing will be located approximately 80 metres west ofthe existing crossing location as shown on Figure 15. A plan and profile for the proposed undercrossing arepresented on Figure 16.
It should be noted that the existing 300 millimetre diameter Sarnia Road high level watermain, which is locatedeast of the proposed bridge, was installed in a 600 millimetre diameter casing in 2004 using jack and boretechniques. No detrimental effects on the tracks were observed.
7.9.2 Trenchless Crossing
The undercrossing will be installed in a 1016 millimetre diameter casing approximately 18 metres in length. Theproposed casing invert elevation is at 272.65 metres or about 3.1 metres below the top of the rail.
The results of the boreholes drilled in the area of the crossing indicate that the proposed trenchlessundercrossing window will be in firm to stiff silty clay and silty clay till. Based on geotechnical considerations, theundercrossing could be installed using jack and bore, pipe ramming or jack and hand mine techniques.However, the contractor should be fully responsible for the selection of the trenchless technology which best fitsthe contract requirements, his experience, equipment and staff availability.
The trenchless crossing of the CPR right-of-way must be conducted in accordance with all applicable CPRregulations. All trenchless work must be carried out by an experienced specialist contractor employing onlyqualified workmen skilled in their trade under the direction of an experienced foreman. The contractor’s workplan should include a method of sealing the ends of the tunnel at the end of each work day or in case of anemergency. It should also include a procedure for compensation grouting should uncontrolled loss of ground ordrilling fluid occur. It is recommended that the geotechnical aspects of the contractor’s work plan for theproposed undercrossing be reviewed by this office prior to construction. Regular inspections by qualified
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 22
geotechnical personnel should be carried out during construction to confirm that the conditions encountered areconsistent with those found in the boreholes and that the work is being carried out consistent with the intent ofthe contractor’s workplan and the relevant contract documents.
7.9.2.1 Jack and Bore
The undercrossing could be installed using jack and bore techniques. With this method, entry and receiving pitsare first excavated to accommodate the jacking equipment at the entry pit and connections to the watermain pipeat the receiving pit. The casing is advanced by jacking with simultaneous removal of spoils using helical augerswithin the casing. Successive lengths of casing are welded together prior to each advance.
The lead casing is generally equipped with a shield or thickened leading edge to create a minor amount ofoverbreak to reduce shear stress. The main advantage of this system is that, with suitable soil conditions andgood workmanship, minimal settlement generally occurs due to the simultaneous installation of the casing.However, the silty clay till should be expected to contain cobbles and boulders and jack and bore operations maybe problematic if boulders greater than 0.3 times the casing diameter are encountered.
Further, consistent with CPR requirements, and to minimize over excavation and loss of ground with theresultant post construction settlements, the auger head should be kept within the casing and at least one pipediameter behind the lead end of the casing at all times. This may result in very high jacking loads which maypreclude the use of this technology. The use of an injected bentonite lubricant will probably be required tominimize casing friction and jacking loads. Care will be required to maintain alignment and grade during thecasing installation.
7.9.2.2 Pipe Ramming
Pipe ramming utilizes a large horizontal percussion hammer to drive a steel casing into the ground. In mostinstances, the ground within the casing is not removed until the full length of casing is driven. Partial removal ofmaterial from within the casing may be needed to reduce friction and increase driving efficiency. As with jackand bore methods, a plug of material equal to at least one pipe diameter should be maintained within the pipe atall times to minimize the potential for adverse ground loss. Due to the shallow invert depth of the casing, piperamming techniques may result in some ground/rail heave. A large sending pit is also required to accommodatethe casing and equipment.
7.9.2.3 Jack and Hand Mine
Jack and hand mine involves excavating by hand and advancing a steel casing and/or liner plate between twoworking pits utilizing a bentonite lubricant and/or grout. To facilitate construction, the contractor may elect to
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 23
increase the size of the casing. The watermain pipe would then be installed in the casing or liner and theannular space grouted.
To minimize potential impacts on the tracks, pipe ramming and jack and hand mine are considered to be themost geotechnically feasible options for the crossing.
7.9.3 Settlements
Some settlement may occur with each method of installation of the undercrossing, even with carefulworkmanship. Settlement monitoring of the undercrossing should be carried out prior to, during and after thecasing installation as detailed below. In addition, the trenchless installation should be monitored by qualifiedgeotechnical personnel.
7.9.3.1 Settlement Monitoring
A monitoring program utilizing an array of shallow settlement monitors is recommended. The shallow settlementmonitors would consist of settlement plates installed at subballast level with steel riser rods at the end of the ties.An array of 10 shallow settlement monitors is recommended. One row will be placed at the end of the ties oneach side of the tracks. As outlined on Figure 17, each row will have one surface settlement monitor installedabove the pipe centreline with additional monitors offset at intervals of 2 metres.
Deep settlement monitors are not considered feasible due to the shallow depth of the undercrossing. A deepsettlement monitor located 1 metre above the casing obvert would not provide any relevant or additionalmeaningful settlement data.
Additional settlement monitoring should be carried out in conjunction with the subdrain installation in any areaswhere the drain is closer than 2 metres to the end of tie. In these areas, shallow settlement monitors should beplaced at 15 metre intervals at subballast level between the ties and as close to the ends as possible as shownon Figure 18.
The installations would be carried out by Golder and the subsequent survey monitoring would be done by theContract Administrator with the results promptly being reviewed by Golder on an ongoing basis. A baselinesurvey should be carried out at least twice prior to construction with the points referenced to two independentbenchmarks. Anomalous readings should be rechecked and discarded, if necessary. As a minimum, the partyresponsible for survey monitoring should:
assign each monitor a unique identifier and note the location;
note the date and elevation of baseline readings and all subsequent readings; and
note differences in elevation.
Monitoring should be carried out at the following frequencies:
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONPROPOSED SARNIA ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
January 2011Report No. 08-1132-088-0-R01 24
Daily during construction and up to one week after completion of the crossingWeekly up to one month after completion of the crossingOnce per month two to six months after completion of the crossing
The frequency of the monitoring at any stage can be adjusted based on the magnitude of movements observedduring construction. The survey data should be reviewed two months after construction to determine if furthermonitoring is warranted.
7.9.4 Excavations
Based on the results of the investigation, open cut excavations, such as those required for the entry andreceiving pits, will encounter fill, silty clay till and silty clay. Cobbles and boulders should be expected in the tilldeposit.
Adequate groundwater control can probably be achieved by pumping from properly constructed and filteredsumps located in the base of the excavation. However, depending on the prevailing weather conditions at thetime of construction, more aggressive dewatering may be required. Surface water should be directed away fromall excavations.
In accordance with the current Occupational Health and Safety Act and Regulations for Construction Projects(OHSA), properly designed shoring systems would be required for the working pits.
Based on the results of the boreholes and current OHSA criteria, the fill materials and saturated granularmaterials below the groundwater level would be classified as Type 3 soils, the silty clay would be classified as aType 2 soil and the silty clay till would be classified as a Type 1 soil.
All open cut excavations should have side slope inclinations of 1 horizontal to 1 vertical or flatter.
Care will be required to ensure that adequate support is provided for all existing utilities and portions of thetracks which are located in the zone of influence of the excavations as defined by a line drawn from 0.3 metresbeyond the end of the tie to the base of the excavation at an inclination of 1.5 horizontal to 1 vertical. Based onthe drawings provided by Dillon, temporary support for the tracks will probably not be required in the area of theRSS walls. Where subdrains are to be installed elsewhere, they should be located outside of the zone notedabove and as outlined on Figure 18. Properly designed temporary support systems could be used to limit theextent of the excavations and reduce potential impacts on adjacent services.
8.0 GEOTECHNICAL INSPECTION AND TESTING
A program of geotechnical inspections, monitoring and testing will be required during construction of this projectto ensure that the intent of the design recommendations provided is being met and that the various projectcriteria are being achieved and that CPR protocols are followed, where appropriate. In addition, thegeotechnical aspects of the contractor’s various work plans and proprietary designs should be reviewed by thisoffice prior to construction.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND LIMITATIONS
OF THIS REPORT
Standard of Care: Golder Associates Ltd. (Golder) has prepared this report in a manner consistent with
that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the engineering and science professions
currently practising under similar conditions in the jurisdiction in which the services are provided, subject
to the time limits and physical constraints applicable to this report. No other warranty, expressed or
implied is made.
Basis and Use of the Report: This report has been prepared for the specific site, design objective,
development and purpose described to Golder by the Client. The factual data, interpretations and
recommendations pertain to a specific project as described in this report and are not applicable to any other
project or site location. Any change of site conditions, purpose, development plans or if the project is not
initiated within eighteen months of the date of the report may alter the validity of the report. Golder can
not be responsible for use of this report, or portions thereof, unless Golder is requested to review and, if
necessary, revise the report.
The information, recommendations and opinions expressed in this report are for the sole benefit of the
Client. No other party may use or rely on this report or any portion thereof without Golder’s express
written consent. If the report was prepared to be included for a specific permit application process, then
upon the reasonable request of the client, Golder may authorize in writing the use of this report by the
regulatory agency as an Approved User for the specific and identified purpose of the applicable permit
review process. Any other use of this report by others is prohibited and is without responsibility to Golder.
The report, all plans, data, drawings and other documents as well as all electronic media prepared by
Golder are considered its professional work product and shall remain the copyright property of Golder, who
authorizes only the Client and Approved Users to make copies of the report, but only in such quantities as
are reasonably necessary for the use of the report by those parties. The Client and Approved Users may not
give, lend, sell, or otherwise make available the report or any portion thereof to any other party without the
express written permission of Golder. The Client acknowledges that electronic media is susceptible to
unauthorized modification, deterioration and incompatibility and therefore the Client can not rely upon the
electronic media versions of Golder’s report or other work products.
The report is of a summary nature and is not intended to stand alone without reference to the instructions
given to Golder by the Client, communications between Golder and the Client, and to any other reports
prepared by Golder for the Client relative to the specific site described in the report. In order to properly
understand the suggestions, recommendations and opinions expressed in this report, reference must be
made to the whole of the report. Golder can not be responsible for use of portions of the report without
reference to the entire report.
Unless otherwise stated, the suggestions, recommendations and opinions given in this report are intended
only for the guidance of the Client in the design of the specific project. The extent and detail of
investigations, including the number of test holes, necessary to determine all of the relevant conditions
which may affect construction costs would normally be greater than has been carried out for design
purposes. Contractors bidding on, or undertaking the work, should rely on their own investigations, as well
as their own interpretations of the factual data presented in the report, as to how subsurface conditions may
affect their work, including but not limited to proposed construction techniques, schedule, safety and
equipment capabilities.
Soil, Rock and Groundwater Conditions: Classification and identification of soils, rocks, and
geologic units have been based on commonly accepted methods employed in the practice of geotechnical
engineering and related disciplines. Classification and identification of the type and condition of these
materials or units involves judgment, and boundaries between different soil, rock or geologic types or units
may be transitional rather than abrupt. Accordingly, Golder does not warrant or guarantee the exactness of
the descriptions.
Golder Associates Page 2 of 2
IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS REPORT (cont’d)
Special risks occur whenever engineering or related disciplines are applied to identify subsurface
conditions and even a comprehensive investigation, sampling and testing program may fail to detect all or
certain subsurface conditions. The environmental, geologic, geotechnical, geochemical and hydrogeologic
conditions that Golder interprets to exist between and beyond sampling points may differ from those that
actually exist. In addition to soil variability, fill of variable physical and chemical composition can be
present over portions of the site or on adjacent properties. The professional services retained for this
project include only the geotechnical aspects of the subsurface conditions at the site, unless otherwise
specifically stated and identified in the report. The presence or implication(s) of possible surface and/or
subsurface contamination resulting from previous activities or uses of the site and/or resulting from the
introduction onto the site of materials from off-site sources are outside the terms of reference for this
project and have not been investigated or addressed.
Soil and groundwater conditions shown in the factual data and described in the report are the observed
conditions at the time of their determination or measurement. Unless otherwise noted, those conditions
form the basis of the recommendations in the report. Groundwater conditions may vary between and
beyond reported locations and can be affected by annual, seasonal and meteorological conditions. The
condition of the soil, rock and groundwater may be significantly altered by construction activities (traffic,
excavation, groundwater level lowering, pile driving, blasting, etc.) on the site or on adjacent sites.
Excavation may expose the soils to changes due to wetting, drying or frost. Unless otherwise indicated the
soil must be protected from these changes during construction.
Sample Disposal: Golder will dispose of all uncontaminated soil and/or rock samples 90 days following
issue of this report or, upon written request of the Client, will store uncontaminated samples and materials
at the Client’s expense. In the event that actual contaminated soils, fills or groundwater are encountered or
are inferred to be present, all contaminated samples shall remain the property and responsibility of the
Client for proper disposal.
Follow-Up and Construction Services: All details of the design were not known at the time of
submission of Golder’s report. Golder should be retained to review the final design, project plans and
documents prior to construction, to confirm that they are consistent with the intent of Golder’s report.
During construction, Golder should be retained to perform sufficient and timely observations of
encountered conditions to confirm and document that the subsurface conditions do not materially differ
from those interpreted conditions considered in the preparation of Golder’s report and to confirm and
document that construction activities do not adversely affect the suggestions, recommendations and
opinions contained in Golder’s report. Adequate field review, observation and testing during construction
are necessary for Golder to be able to provide letters of assurance, in accordance with the requirements of
many regulatory authorities. In cases where this recommendation is not followed, Golder’s responsibility
is limited to interpreting accurately the information encountered at the borehole locations, at the time of
their initial determination or measurement during the preparation of the Report.
Changed Conditions and Drainage: Where conditions encountered at the site differ significantly
from those anticipated in this report, either due to natural variability of subsurface conditions or
construction activities, it is a condition of this report that Golder be notified of any changes and be provided
with an opportunity to review or revise the recommendations within this report. Recognition of changed
soil and rock conditions requires experience and it is recommended that Golder be employed to visit the
site with sufficient frequency to detect if conditions have changed significantly.
Drainage of subsurface water is commonly required either for temporary or permanent installations for the
project. Improper design or construction of drainage or dewatering can have serious consequences. Golder
takes no responsibility for the effects of drainage unless specifically involved in the detailed design and
construction monitoring of the system.
