Background
The City of Boyne Ciy has udertaken study of their existing marina facilties and planning
efforts to design and successfully permit a layout for expansion of the existing F. Grant
Moore Municipal Marina. The City has obtained state and federal permits and is
currently evaluating funding sources and phasing options for realizing this expansion
plan.
The City is currently completing preliminary engineering work, including a geotechnical
investigation of the marina basin soils and design the electrical distribution system. The
final phase of preliminary engineernig is the Pre-Qualification of Dock Manufacturers.
Once complete, this task will result in a short-list of approved dock manufacturers,
including a refined cost estimate, as well as manufacturer-specific recommendations
for anchorage, operations, and value-engineering.

IV. Prequalification Application Requirements
The prequalification application must contain, at minimum, information which
illustrates the following:
A. Floating System Parameters
The floating system must meet or exceed the following performance
requirements. Inability to meet any one of these requirements could result in the
elimination of the Company from future consideration for solicitation of proposals
for this project.
The system must meet or exceed the following minimum requirements:
1. General – Unless specifically defined, all design loads shall be in accordance
with ASCE Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice No. 50, Planning and
Design Guidelines for Small Craft Harbors (Third Edition)

requirements to which the floating system must be designed.
3. Layout & Dimensions – The attached project drawing(s) are general in nature
and show basic preliminary floating pier system(s) layouts with required
dimensions. The floating dock system must be manufactured to the general
dimensions and layouts shown in the project drawings. The City reserves the
right to revise the contract documents prior to the bid process and to phase
the project over multiple phases/multiple years to best suit its needs.
4. Anchorage – The Floating System anchorage will be designed by the Vendor
to properly secure the system during all conditions outlined in the
specifications. The anchorage system will secure the Floating System at all
water levels from +6 feet to -2 feet, relative to Lake Michigan Low Water
Datum (LWD) of 577.5’ (IGLD ’85 Datum).
5. Decking – Floating Dockage System must be compatible with various 2”x6”
decking materials including composite decking options, treated pine,
Kebony, and Ipe.
6. The manufacturer must demonstrate its products meet or exceed the above
requirements by providing the following for evaluation, at minimum:
a. Applicable specifications and typical fabrication drawings showing cross
sections, details, attachments, connections, anchorage details and all
other necessary information for a thorough product analysis.
City of Boyne City ● Floating Dock/Breakwater Sytems RFQ

delivering product if the vendor is able to demonstrate their products will meet
all required floating system parameters, that products are fully available in the
marketplace, and that the manufacturer can demonstrate the minimum
experience and qualifications, as follows.
1. Demonstrate a minimum of ten (10) years of proven experience in the design
of floating structures, floating piers, anchorages and related appurtenances
and fabrication, construction, assembly, and installation in the Great Lakes or
similar coastal environments. Inland lakes and inland rivers are not considered
similar coastal environments.
2. Demonstrate a minimum of five (5) installations placed during the last ten (10)
years where the floating system, similar to the floating system for this project
that are to be pre-bid qualified, have been installed at locations with similar
coastal conditions. Such listing must also include the number of slips at each
location, anchorage type, date installed and the name, address, and
telephone number of the installation’s Owner, or the Owner’s local contact.
The list must include a minimum of five (5) installations that meet the following
criteria:
a. Located in the Great Lakes or in similar coastal conditions; and
b. Containing a minimum of 50 slips
3. Demonstrate a minimum of two (2) installations in locations which are prone
to ice conditions similar to those at the project site. Installations located in
brackish or saltwater will not be considered similar to the project site. While

F. Fairways will have a minimum width as shown on the Project Drawings.
1.05
DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Where the requirements of the Contract Documents Exceed those of ASCE Report No. 50,
“Planning and Design Guidelines for Small Craft Harbors” 2012, the requirements of the
Contract Documents will govern.
B. All structural members will be designed and appropriately sized to carry and accept all design
loads without failure or excessive deformation. Members will be so sized to compensate for
reductions in cross section resulting from drilling bolt holes and cutting of opening for
utilities. Where the required width of main piers, T-piers and service piers require fabrication
from narrower pier modules, the individual pier modules will not be less than 4 feet in width.
Overlapping adjacent modules by staggering transverse joints to insure maximum strength is
required. However, overlapping is not required as long as sufficient longitudinal joint
strength is provided.
C. The floating docks and floating attenuators will have a structural frame work in conjunction
with the evenly spaced intermediate bulkheads, including the decking and the galvanized
sheet metal floatation encasement, that will be designed and constructed, as an integral part of
the total floating system, to withstand as a unit, all of the physically induced stresses.
Framing will act as a bulkhead member to withstand compression and will be the full width
of the unit at 48” spacing along the length of each unit. This support framing/bulkhead will be
incorporated with a continuous floatation encasement to provide rigidly constructed units.
The continuous floatation unit will be the lowest portion of the floating dockage system,
except in the floating attenuators.
D. The Floatation Encasement will be determined by manufacturer. Allowable encasement
materials include polyethylene, concrete, and/or galvanized sheet steel.
1.06
DESIGN AND DEFLECTION CRITERIA
A. Piers, ramps connections and anchorages will be designed for the following loads and
conditions.
B. Vertical:
1. Vertical Dead Load: Dead loads will be the entire weight of the floating system and
attachments including anchorages and utilities. In addition, finger piers will have their
outer ends at least level with but in no case more than 2” higher than the elevation of the
main pier at their plane of attachment under dead load conditions. The ends of the finger
piers will be as level as practical but in no case must a cross slope of more than 2% of
width be tolerated in order to comply with ADA. Adjacent floating pier units will not
have deck surface elevation differences or horizontal gaps between the decking greater
than those allowed by ADA.
2. Vertical Live Load: A uniform live load of not less than 30 pounds per square foot on
ramps and on the deck and structural frame of the floating piers will be used. Minimum
live load for floatation will be 30 pounds per square foot. Finger piers will be designed to
withstand a 400 pound concentrated live load 1’ from the end of the finger pier without a
loss in freeboard of more than 4” at the time of acceptance, nor more than 6” at the end of
5 years.
3. Combined Vertical Dead Load and Live Load: Combined dead load plus live load for
docks, and ramps will be the actual dead load including utilities plus 30 psf live load.
However, for purposes of calculation, the combined dead load plus required 30 psf live
load will never be calculated as being less than 50 psf. Ramps will be so designed that the

Draft Floating Systems Specification – For information only
maximum live load deflection of the ramp is limited to 1/180 of the span. Extra floatation
of the same general type and design used for the floating piers will be installed at end
sections as required to compensate for end reactions of ramps due to combined loading.
In no case will the supporting dock module at the ramp connection be less than the
designed free board under neither combined loading nor more than the 2” above the
freeboard shown on the approved shop drawings under the full dead load including
utilities. The combined vertical dead and live load will be such that the cross slope is no
more than 2% of the width in order to comply with 2010 ADA Standards.
4. Dead Load Freeboard: Floating Dockage System manufacturers will provide docks with
dead load freeboards of not less than 22” or more than 26” (4” tolerance to allow for
variations between manufacturers). Attenuators shall be provided with dead load
freeboards of not less than 22” and more than 28”, with ADA compliant transitions
between docks and attenuators if freeboard varies between the two objects. However,
actual dead load freeboard will not vary appreciably from the freeboard designed on the
manufacturer’s approved shop drawings with docks presenting a reasonable level, flat,
even surface to the eye under dead load conditions. As indicated, main docks will be
reasonably level, but in no case will a cross slope exceeding 2% of the width be allowed
in order to comply with 2010 ADA. At the design load of dead load plus 30 psf live load,
a freeboard of not less than 10 inches will be maintained. Freeboard loss will not be more
than 2” at the end of 5 years. Utilities will not be in the water.
C. Horizontal
1. Wind Load: The uniform wind load for determining lateral loading on an independent
floating dockage system from any direction will be 15 psf on all projected surfaces,
assuming 100 percent boat occupancy for all designated slips. Wind loads will be
calculated in directions both perpendicular to and parallel to the main dock and
anchorages. Profile heights and shielding factors shall be per Section 3.08 herein and per
USACE Manual No. 50.
2. Current Load: Local current loading will be applied on all submerged surfaces of moored

pass two (2) safe, consecutive bacteriological tests 24-hours apart in accordance with the
requirements of the local water department and all applicable state and federal
requirements before the main is placed in service.
2. Sections of pipe to be disinfected shall first be flushed to remove any solids or
contaminated material that may have become lodged in the pipe. If no hydrant is
installed at the end of the main, then a tap should be provided large enough to develop a
velocity of at least two and five-tenths feet per second (2.5 fps) in the main. One two and
one-half inch (2-1/2”) hydrant opening will, under normal pressures, provide this velocity
in pipe sizes up to and including twelve inches (12”).

Based on 3-3/4 g available chlorine per tablet.
5. The Slug Method of Chlorination is used for large diameter water mains and long lengths
of new water mains. The preferred point of application of the chlorinating agent is at the
beginning of the pipeline extension or any valved section of it, and through a corporation
stop inserted in the pipe. The water injector for delivering the chlorine-bearing water into
the pipe should be supplied from a tap made on the pressure side of the gate valve
controlling the flow into the pipeline extensions. Alternate points of application may be
used when approved or directed by the Professional. A chlorine gas-water mixture shall
be applied by means of a solution-feed chlorinating device, or the dry gas may be fed
directly through proper devices for regulating the rate of flow and providing effective
diffusion of the gas into the water within the pipe being treated. Chlorinating devices for
feeding solutions of the chlorine gas, or the gas itself, must provide means for preventing
the backflow of water into the chlorine. Water from the existing distribution system, or
other source of supply as approved by the Professional, shall be controlled to flow very
slowly into the newly laid pipeline during application of the chlorine. The rate of
chlorine mixture flow shall be in such proportion to the rate of water entering the newly
laid pipe that the dosage applied to the water will be at least fifty (50) parts per million
unless otherwise directed by the Professional.
6. The chlorine residual, as free C1-2, shall not be less than ten (10) PPM as determined at
the end of the line after twenty-four (24) hours. Upon approval of the Professional, all
treated water shall be thoroughly flushed from the newly laid pipe at its extremity until
the replacement water throughout its length shows, upon test, the absence of chlorine. In
the event chlorine is normally used in the source of supply, then the test shall show a
residual not in excess of that carried in the system.
7. It will be the Contractor’s responsibility to properly sample water from the newly flushed
locations throughout the system in an approximate number equal to one for every 1,000
feet of new pipe. Samples found to be unsafe will require resampling of that section of
the main. The Professional may require reflushing and/or rechlorination to obtain a

water main to be tested at one time shall be 1,000 feet or the minimum distance between
valves. The Contractor shall not be allowed to raise the pressure in the water main above
120 psi at any time during the testing procedure. The allowable leakage shall not exceed
that amount determined by the formula:
a. L = SD√P/ 148,000
b. Where:
1) D = nominal pipe diameter in inches;
2) L = allowable leakage in gallons per hour,
3) P = average test pressure (psi) during the leakage test; and
4) S = length of pipe to be tested, in feet.
2. The cost of the testing of the pipe lines shall be borne by the Contractor who must furnish
all necessary equipment for the tests. The Contractor may, upon special request, test pipe
segments longer than 1,000 feet, but the allowable leakage shall be calculated as
indicated in Paragraph #2.
3. Contractor shall insure hydrostatic testing which shall meet the local utility requirements.
4. Any and all leaks will be found, located, and corrected by the Floating Dockage System
Contractor until tests performed indicate that all leakage found has been
corrected/replaced.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
This report summarizes Northwest Design Group’s (NDG’s) geotechnical investigation for the proposed
Boyne City Marina Expansion project, located at 20 State Street in Boyne City, Michigan. Our services
were authorized by our agreement dated November 10, 2015.
1.2 Project Description and Scope
The project involves the installation of several new floating and fixed docks, along with other work such
as dredging at the Boyne City Marina located at the southeast end of the east arm of Lake Charlevoix
(Figure 1). Based on a conversation with Mr. Daniel Dombos, P.E., of Abomarche Consultants, Inc., the
majority of the docks will be of the floating variety. The ice and wind loadings anticipated were not
available, but instead will be considered by the professional(s) designing the dock systems. The purpose
of our exploration is to provide preliminary subsurface information and ground parameters for use in the
design of the foundations and anchorages for the new structures.
NDG’s scope of work is described in our November 10, 2015 proposal. Environmental assessment of the
sediments within the marina area was not a part of the scope of services. Additionally, this report does not
contain recommendations for any terrestrial changes, improvements, or additions to the marina area.
2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Field Investigations
Subsurface conditions were explored at the site on December 17, 2015 by drilling seven borings. The
borings were drilled to depths between 10 and 50 feet below grade. Figure 2 shows the boring locations.
The boring locations were provided by Abonmarche, but were modified in some cases due to equipment
constraints.
All borings were drilled by NDG using a truck-mounted CME-55 drill rig positioned on a barge using
hollow stem drilling methods. During drilling, samples were obtained at 5-foot to 10-foot intervals, in
accordance with the standard penetration test (ASTM D1586; using an automatic hammer). The borings
were visually logged in the field by NDG geotechnical personnel. The resulting logs are included in
Appendix A along with a legend describing NDG’s soil classification system. A more complete
description of field exploration procedures is included, as well.
2.2 Laboratory Testing
Samples obtained from field investigation procedures were taken to the NDG laboratory for additional
testing and verification of field classification. Based on the soils encountered, laboratory evaluation
included determination of natural moisture content and grain size distribution tests as shown in Appendix
B. The boring logs, water contents, and grain size distribution curves were used to develop engineering
parameters.
3.0 SITE CONDITIONS
3.1 Geologic Setting and Existing Information
The project site is located in Charlevoix County at the east end of Lake Charlevoix, near the mouth of the
Boyne River. This area is within the Michigan Basin; a broad depression in the underlying Precambrian
basement rock, infilled with Paleozoic and Quaternary sediments. All of northern Michigan was
1
overridden by glacial ice during Pleistocene time, most recently during the Wisconsinan Glaciation,
approximately 10,000 to 13,500 years ago. The glaciers, several thousand feet thick, are responsible for
most of the current topography and deposited significant amounts of sediment; either directly as glacial
till, or via meltwater as outwash and glaciolacustrine deposits. Additional modification of topography
and deposition occurred by the varying levels of the Great Lakes, during and after glacial retreat.
The surficial geology of the nearby surrounding area primarily includes glacial tills, with areas of glacial
outwash and post glacial alluvium or lacustrine soils according to the Quaternary Geology of Michigan
(Farrand, 1982). It appears that post-glacial alluvium and/or lacustrine soils are present near this shore of
the east arm of Lake Charlevoix. These materials consist of fine-grained and/or coarse-grained waterdeposited soils either in still, low-energy environments during post-glacial high water levels of the Great
Lakes, or in moving water.
According to the Bedrock Geology of Michigan (Wilson, 1987), the site is likely underlain at depth by the
Ellsworth and Antrim shales, and Traverse Group limestone; both known to be prevalent in the
surrounding area as observed by occasional outcroppings and deep wells. This is also corroborated by the
USGS (2007) Summary of Hydrogeologic Conditions by County for the State of Michigan.
Water well records from the general vicinity of the site from Michigan DEQ’s Wellogic database
(http://www.michigan.gov/deq/) generally indicate soils ranging from silty clays with sand and gravel
(likely glacial till), to uniform sandy soils (likely alluvium), to “white clay” (possible lake marl), to black
shale; all at varying depths. Additionally, we reviewed the October 2013 NDG borings performed on the
shore of the marina property for the City of Boyne City for a project at that time. Those borings were
completed in the vicinity of the existing building immediately to the west of the harbor area. The October
2013 borings generally contained sandy soils with an approximate 36 inch-thick lean clay stratum at a
depth of about 41 feet below grade at one location.
3.2 Surface Conditions
The project area is located at the southeast end of the east arm of Lake Charlevoix. The lake level of Lake
Charlevoix follows that of Lake Michigan, as both are connected hydraulically through the channel in
Charlevoix to the northwest of the site. The current level of Lake Michigan is approximately 579 feet; just
above the average water elevation of 578.8 feet (all based on the IGLD 85 datum) for the recorded period
between 1918 and present day. The all-time high water level of Lake Michigan during the recorded period
is 582.35 feet with the low water elevation at 576.0 feet (IGLD 85).
3.3 Subsurface Conditions
Subsurface conditions encountered in the borings are summarized below, while detailed descriptions of
conditions encountered in the borings are included in the current boring logs and the generalized
subsurface profiles found in Appendix A. Grain size distribution tests and water content tests were also
conducted on selected specimens collected during the exploration and the results are shown in Appendix
B.
All borings were completed over water with water depths between 7 feet and 17 feet. The depth of the
borings below the mudline ranged from 15 feet to 50 feet. All depths given below are below the current
mudline.
The borings encountered varying strata across the site, and it appears that some of these strata are
discontinuous while others are continuous. Figure 3 (in Appendix B) shows our interpretation of the soil
profiles in two representative locations (Sections 1 and 2 as shown in the figure). Note that we developed
2
these interpreted profiles based on relatively limited soil boring information for the purposes of general,
preliminary planning and the actual soil stratigraphy may vary from that shown in Figure 3.
In the area of Section 1 (See Figure 3), representing the general area where Borings B01, B02, and B04
were completed, we encountered predominately loose (according to the on-site penetration testing
(Standard Penetration Test; SPT; ASTM D1586), uniformly graded fine to medium sands (SP) 1 in borings
B01 and B02. Some exceptions were noted where relatively thin strata of stiff clay and medium dense
fine silty sands were encountered at depths generally below 20 feet and 40 feet below the mudline in
borings B02 and B01, respectively. Boring B04 had soft gray silt/lake marl (ML) to a depth below the
mudline of about 7 feet, underlain by medium dense gray fine sand with silt (SP-SM) to boring
termination at 15 feet below the mudline.
In the area of Section 2 (see Figure 3), representing the general area of borings B03, B06, B05, and B07,
we observed some locations of soft peat underlain by loose uniformly-graded fine to medium sand and/or
silt/lake marl. More specifically, boring B03 had loose dark brown fine to medium sand with some
organics and wood (SP) to approximately 10 feet below the mudline. These surficial soils were followed
by gray silt/lake marl with some organics and shells (ML) to about 26 feet. The final strata in boring B03
included about 7 feet of loose brown fine to medium sand (SP) underlain by loose brown fine to medium
sand with silt (SP-SM), and finally terminating in loose to medium dense light brown fine to medium
sand (SP) at 50 feet. Boring B06 had about 5 feet of dark brown soft peat (Pt) underlain by very soft gray
silt/lake marl with some organics and shells (ML) to approximately 12 feet, and then terminating in very
loose to loose brown fine sand (SP) at 20 feet. Boring B07 had 7 feet of very soft dark brown peat (Pt),
terminating in a very soft stratum of gray silt/lake marl (ML) at 15 feet. Boring B05 had 8 feet of very
loose brown fine sand with a trace organics (SP) overlying very soft gray silt/lake marl (ML), terminating
at 15 feet. Water contents of the lake marl ranged from about 60 to 70 percent [(Mass of water/Mass of
solids) x 100].
4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 General
The subsurface conditions are generally conducive to the proposed project provided the
foundation/anchorage designs consider the ground conditions present. The main issues to contend with
will be the possibly thick sequence of soft silty clay/lake marl and its low strength and high
compressibility, as well as the thick rather loose uniform sand strata present across the site. The following
tables provide our recommended soil parameters for consideration in the design of the dock anchorage
systems. The parameters were developed based on in situ and laboratory testing, correlations from the
literature, and experience with similar soils. For the purposes of these parameters, we assumed that
anchorage elements would be limited to installation depths of 30 feet below the mudline or less.
Table 1 presents the basic soil parameters for use in design, including unit weights and drained and
undrained strength estimates.

Table 2 presents the additional soil parameters which may be considered in design depending on the
approach and type of design undertaken. For example, lateral loading estimates may be made using a
number of different approaches such as those focusing on strength exceedance (e.g., Broms methods),
while other analysis approaches concentrate on allowable lateral deflection of the laterally-loaded element
(e.g., p-y approach, L-Pile, etc.). The engineer designing the anchorage systems will choose the
appropriate design method(s).

4.2 Deadman Anchors
Deadman anchors of sufficient size and weight may be considered for anchoring and tethering of the
docks by resisting upward and lateral loadings. The anchors should be sized and designed in anticipation
of some initial settlement in the relatively soft sediments at the mudline present at many locations of the
exploration.
4.3 Pile Foundations/Anchors
Pile foundations, such as steel pipe or timber piles, designed to resist lateral and/or uplift forces may be
considered for the floating or fixed docks. The anticipated skin friction for the various soils is shown in
Table 2. The skin friction, when loaded in the upward direction, is reduced by about 75% as compared to
a pile axially loaded in the downward direction. The skin friction values in Table 2 take this reduction in
skin friction into account. Other considerations, depending on the design approach, should be taken into
account such as additional uplift reduction mechanisms (e.g., “breakout,” and others), as appropriate.
Lateral loading calculations are dependent on the constraints for the elements and whether the
performance of the anchorage elements are limited by strength or by deformation. As an example of the
former, using Broms method, we estimate that a 12-inch diameter pipe pile installed to 10 feet below the
mudline in primarily in the granular (sandy) soils will develop an ultimate lateral loading capacity of 8
kips, with a factor of safety of 2. In contrast, we estimate that a 12-inch diameter pipe pile installed in the
fine–grained soils (lake marl) – if present from the surface level down – installed 10 feet below the
mudline will develop an ultimate lateral loading capacity of 1.5 kips, with a factor of safety of 2. Note
that this particular type of analysis is a strength analysis and does not consider allowable lateral
deformations and a different lateral loading analysis technique would need to be considered (e.g., p-y
curves, L-pile, etc.).
4.4 Rotated and Driven Anchor Systems
Another anchorage option is that of helical piles/anchors or Manta Ray-type anchors. Helical anchors are
deep foundation elements consisting of a relatively slender shaft with one or more helices attached at
various points along the shaft. Helical anchors are installed by rotating them into the ground to the desired
depth. Torque is typically monitored during installation, providing a means of evaluating the vertical load
capacity at various depths. As an example, we anticipate that a helical anchor with a triple helix attached
configuration (12”, 10”, and 8” helices ordered from top to bottom) near the end of the shaft, installed to
15 feet below the surface in an area of the site containing loose sand (e.g., B01) would develop an
allowable vertical uplift load capacity of approximately 6 kip (factor of safety of 2). Other configurations
of the helical piles are available, and would need to be evaluated separately. Manta Ray-style anchors are
installed into the ground by driving action. Once they have been advanced to the proper depth the shaft is
pulled upward, allowing the hinged anchor to lock into position. Several sizes of the Manta Ray anchors
are available, and they may deliver uplift capacities on the order of 3 to 6 kips (factor of safety of 2). Note
that for any anchor selected, specific analysis should be undertaken concerning load carrying capacity
once elevations, locations, etc. are known with more certainty.
4.5 Dredging
Based on the soils encountered in the soil borings, we do not anticipate the presence of large natural
objects (e.g., cobbles, boulders, etc.). However, these types of particles may exist at other unexplored
portions of the marina that may have been subjected to higher-energy, faster moving, post-glacial historic
alluvial features. We anticipate that conventional dredging equipment may generally be used to carry out
these operations. Note that environmental testing of the soils was not part of the scope of this work, and
we are not able to comment on the suitability of sediments for disposal purposes.
5
4.6 Scour and Future Dredging Considerations
The design of the anchorage system(s) should consider the possible removal of overburden/sediment from
the anchor locations due to both scouring (as a result of water level changes, currents, etc.) and future
dredging operations. Loss of uplift capacity will result with loss of sediment overlying the deep
anchorages, if used to tether the floating docks.
4.7 Construction Quality Control & Monitoring
Sufficient monitoring, testing, and consultation should be planned for during construction and anchorage
installation to confirm that the geotechnical aspects of construction are in general conformance with the
contract plans and specifications. For example, if driven piles are installed, blow counts and other items
may be observed to see that the ground conditions are consistent with those encountered in this soil
boring program. If helical anchors are installed, torque readings (correlating to the soil strength) may be
monitored along with other items to check for overall consistency of the ground with this report.
5.0 LIMITATIONS AND ADDITIONAL SERVICES
This report was prepared in accordance with generally accepted professional principles and practices in
the field of geotechnical engineering. Our scope of services was limited to subsurface explorations and
geotechnical recommendations for design of specific portions of the project, and did not include other
analyses or recommendations, environmental assessments, or evaluation concerning the presence or
absence of wetlands or hazardous substances.
This report was prepared to assist the design professional in the design and construction of the referenced
project and was based on our understanding of the project. If our understanding is incorrect or the project
scope changes then NDG should be retained to re-evaluate our recommendations.
It must be noted that the conclusions and interpretations given in this report should not be construed as a
warranty of subsurface conditions. This report is based on subsurface conditions found at specific
locations on the site at a specific time. Subsurface conditions may vary at other locations and times.
Should conditions revealed during construction differ from those anticipated we should be notified to reevaluate our conclusions.
We appreciate the opportunity to be of service. If you have any questions concerning this report or
require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
