Attention: Kristofer Enlow, P.E.

Reference: Report of Pavement Investigation Cooper Street Correctional Facility Jackson, Michigan

Dear Mr. Enlow:

We have completed a geotechnical investigation for the above-referenced project. The purpose of this investigation has been to perform discrete pavement cores and test borings in the vicinity of the proposed pathway, parking lot and road rehabilitation, present the results and to provide recommendations for the design and rehabilitation of pavements. This work has been performed as described in our proposal dated July 25, 2023.

Presented herein are descriptions of our understanding of the design considerations, the geotechnical investigation, encountered conditions and engineering recommendations. The Appendix contains the report limitations and data collected during this investigation.

Report of Pavement Investigation

Project No. 231464 October 27, 2023

Project Scope

The proposed construction will be located in plan as shown on Figure No. 1. The site is located at the Cooper Street Correctional Facility located at address 3100 Cooper Street in Jackson, Michigan.

The construction will in general consist of rehabilitation of pedestrian pavements as well as interior and exterior roads and parking lots. We have considered the pavement reconstruction will consist of removal of some or all existing HMA or concrete and placement of new pavement over the existing base material. A new pedestrian sidewalk will be added on the interior of the facility.

Traffic is expected to consist of relatively light passenger vehicles with only occasional heavier axle wheel loading from trucks for deliveries, refuse pickup, etc. We expect the pavement near the existing concrete loading apron, located at the northwest of the property, will experience the majority of the heavier-axle wheel loading. We have considered the parking lots and entry drives will experience a design loading of no more than 500 vehicles per day.

We have considered that the interior and perimeter roads of the facility will undergo infrequent loading from patrol vehicles. Traffic on the recreational areas and sidewalks in the center of the site is expected to be limited to pedestrian traffic.

We should be informed of any changes between the actual design conditions and those described herein as this information may affect our recommendations.

INVESTIGATION METHODOLOGY

Pavement cores, hand auger soil borings and sampling along with field engineering reconnaissance were used to investigate the subsurface conditions. Boring locations are shown on Figure No. 1. Investigation procedures, soil classification information and boring logs are provided in the Appendix.

Number of Borings 20 Boring Depth Range, ft. 1.0 to 6.0

One of our engineers staked the approximate boring locations in the field. Boring elevations and coordinates were collected by GPS. The elevations used in this report are given in feet and are based on the NAVD 88 datum, with coordinates given in the Michigan State Plane South system. Site reconnaissance was performed by our field engineer.

Borings were performed at requested locations through 4-inch diameter cores using a 3 ¼-inch diameter hand auger. Grab samples were recovered from the auger at regular intervals.

October 27, 2023

The boreholes were backfilled to the original ground surface and patched at the surface with cold patch after drilling completion. Recovered samples were sealed, labeled and transported to our laboratory. All soil samples will be discarded after sixty days unless a longer hold time is specifically requested.

Borings were drilled and other sampling was conducted solely to obtain indications of subsurface conditions as part of a geotechnical exploration program. No services were performed to evaluate subsurface environmental conditions.

Soil samples were reviewed by one of our engineers and technically classified according to the methods of ASTM D2488 "Standard Practice for Description and Identification of Soils (Visual- Manual Procedure)". Calibrated penetrometer tests were performed on cohesive samples to obtain an indication of unconfined compressive strength values. The D2488 classifications are included on the boring logs.

INVESTIGATION RESULTS

During our investigation, pavement in fair to poor condition was observed throughout the site.

Moderate to severe surface raveling and transverse and block cracking were observed near the staff and visitor parking lot and main entrance drive as well as the interior and perimeter drives. Cracks were generally sealed on the exterior areas, and only occasionally sealed in the interior areas. Severe block cracking and raveling was observed near the locations of Borings B-8 and B-15. Alligator cracking was also observed near the location of Boring B-15, likely due to truck loads.

In general, the encountered pavement section generally consisted of 2 to 4 1/4 inches of HMA overlying 4 to 21 inches of gravel base. Based on visual observations, the gravel base encountered in the borings generally appeared to be a natural aggregate. The following table lists the surficial findings at each boring location.

* - Hand auger refusal within aggregate base

October 27, 2023

Beneath the pavement sections, the subgrade generally consisted of poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP, SP-SM, SP-SC, SC) and stiff to hard lean clay (CL) to the explored depths of 1 to 6 ft (els 969.6 to 996.5). Listed below are summaries of the encountered subsurface conditions within each area of the site. The boring logs located in the Appendix should be reviewed for detailed soil descriptions. Some variation between boring locations is to be expected.

Surface drainage throughout the site appeared to be facilitated through positive drainage to outer pavement edges. No curb and gutter were observed along the pavement edges. The pavement surfaces appeared to be relatively flat, with only minimal site grading to promote drainage to the outer grass areas. Depressions in the pavement were observed in areas where block, edge and alligator cracking has occurred, creating low areas for water to accumulate. Original design plans were not provided for the site.

Staff and Visitor Parking Lot and Main Entrance Drive – Borings B-1 to B-6

Borings B-1 to B-6 encountered 2 ½ to 3 ½ inches of HMA underlain by 4 to 11 inches of aggregate base. Boring B-4 encountered shallow refusal within the natural aggregate base due to possible coarse gravel or cobble.

Below the pavement sections, Borings B-1 to B-3, B-5 and B-6 encountered poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SC, SP-SM, SM) to the explored depths of

3.5 to 5 ft (els 914.4 to 935.1). Boring B-2 encountered a layer of silt (ML) at depths ranging from 3.1 to 5 ft (els 924.7 to 926.6).

Boring B-7 encountered shallow refusal at a depth of 1.4 ft (el 916.2) due to possible coarse gravel or cobble.

Boring B-8 encountered buried clayey topsoil at depths ranging from 1.0 to 2.7 ft (els 915.0 to 916.9) and lean clay (CL) ranging from 3.2 ft to 6.0 ft (els 911.9 to 915.2) with an intermediary layer of amorphous peat (PT) encountered at depths ranging from 4.6 to 5.1 ft (els 912.8 to 913.3).

October 27, 2023

Interior Drives – Borings B-13, B-14 and B-19

Borings B-13, B-14 and B-19 generally encountered 3 1/2 to 4 inches of HMA underlain by 5 to 9 inches of natural aggregate base. Boring B-13 encountered shallow refusal within the aggregate base at a depth of 1 ft (el 917.8) due to possible coarse gravel or cobble.

Below the pavement sections, Borings B-14 and B-19 generally encountered fill, consisting of poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SM, SC), to depths ranging from 1.6 to 1.9 ft (els 916.6 to 922.5). Below the pavement sections and fill, Borings B-14 and B-19 encountered poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SM, SP-SC, SC) to the explored depths of 5 ft (els 913.2 to 919.4).

Concrete Loading Apron – Boring B-15

Boring B-15 encountered 3 3/4 inches of HMA underlain by 21 inches of natural aggregate base. Boring B-15 encountered shallow refusal within the aggregate base at a depth of 2 ft (el 915.8) due to possible coarse or cobble.

New 8-ft wide Sidewalk – Borings B-17 and B-18

Borings B-17 and B-18 encountered 3 to 3 1/4 inches of HMA underlain by 10 inches of natural aggregate base. Beneath the pavement, Boring B-17 encountered fill, consisting of poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty fines (SP-SM, SM), to a depth of 3.5 ft (el 915.7) and intermittent buried topsoil to a depth of 4.5 ft (el 914.7).

Below the pavement sections, Borings B-17 and B-18 encountered poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SM, SC) to the explored depths of 5 ft (els 914.2 to 914.6).

Basketball Courts – Boring B-16 and B-20

Borings B-16 and B-20 generally encountered 2 1/2 to 3 1/4 inches of HMA underlain by 8 to 10 inches of natural aggregate base. Below the pavement section, Boring B-16 encountered fill consisting of poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SM, SP- SC) to a depth of 2.5 ft (el 916) and a layer of amorphous peat (PT) to a depth of 3.7 ft (el 914.8).

Beneath the pavement sections and fill, Boring B-16 and B-20 generally encountered poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SM, SP-SC, SC) to the explored depths ranging from 2.3 to 5 ft (els 913.5 to 928.3). Boring B-20 encountered shallow refusal at a depth of 2.3 ft (el 928.3) due to possible coarse gravel or cobble.

Groundwater was encountered during the drilling activities in Borings B-6 and B-8 at depths ranging from 4.6 to 4.9 ft (els 913.3 to 914.5). Groundwater levels may fluctuate due to

October 27, 2023 seasonal variations such as precipitation, snowmelt, nearby river or lake levels and other factors that may not be evident at the time of measurement. Groundwater levels may be different at the time of construction.

This section has provided a generalized description of the encountered subsurface soil conditions. The boring logs located in the Appendix should be reviewed for detailed soil descriptions. Some variation between boring locations may be expected. Boulder may be present where cobble is noted.

PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

Due to the natural aggregate base, existing pavement conditions and considering long term pavement performance is desired (15 to 25 years), a full-depth asphalt replacement is recommended. Full depth rotomilling of the existing asphalt should be performed until the gravel base is exposed. Prior to placing new asphalt, the existing gravel base should be inspected, with any areas of less than the recommended amount of gravel thickness augmented with MDOT 21AA aggregate.

We have considered the existing aggregate base will be largely suitable for re-use. Re-use of the existing aggregate base does present some risk of premature pavement deterioration due to potential variations in the aggregate. Additionally, the use of rubblized asphalt presents some risks to the pavement when compared to new crushed limestone aggregate as the rubblized asphalt is expected to provide worse drainage capability for stormwater. Water trapped within the pavement base presents a risk of freeze-thaw damage to the pavement and premature pavement deterioration. If the owner can accept no risk of premature pavement deterioration, we recommend removal of existing aggregate base and replacement with MDOT 21AA aggregate. If poor quality aggregate base is suspected based on visual inspection or proof roll results after the HMA surface is removed, we recommend stockpiling and testing the material to determine the material’s gradation and suitability for re-use.

The aggregate base should be compacted and proof-rolled as described in the “Site and Subgrade Preparation” section of this report. Following aggregate compaction, the new HMA pavement should be installed.

The pavement sections encountered in our investigation were variable between the sampling locations. If a pavement section is encountered during construction that is thinner than anticipated, pavement reconstruction may be required.

Pavement rehabilitation options such as a partial depth asphalt mill and overlay, chip sealing or any other nonstructural overlay are not expected to provide significant extension of the pavement life in areas of poor pavement condition. There is not expected to be sufficient pavement integrity in areas with less than 2 inches of existing asphalt to support a partial-

October 27, 2023 depth asphalt mill and replacement. In addition, for any overlay, the cracking in pavement that is left in place would be expected to reflect upward through the overlay.

Our recommended options for addressing the primary deficiencies of the existing pavement section are described below, along with discussion of alternate options which will present varying degrees of pavement life.

It is important that the recommendations of this report, in particular those pertaining to subgrade preparation, construction observation and testing, be implemented during design and construction.

Recommended Option: Reuse of Existing Aggregate Base

Should the Owner accept the risk of possible poor performance of the pavement section due to variations in the existing aggregate base, the existing aggregate base may be used with the parameters of the following defined full-depth pavement section. If this option is selected, full depth rotomilling of the existing asphalt should be performed until the gravel base is exposed. The existing asphalt may be removed, or a crush-and-shape may be performed whereby the asphalt millings are mixed into the existing gravel in accordance with MDOT specifications. Prior to placing new asphalt, the existing gravel base should be inspected, with any areas of less than the recommended amount of gravel thickness augmented with MDOT 21AA aggregate. The aggregate base should be compacted and proof-rolled as described in the “Site and Subgrade Preparation” section of this report. Following aggregate compaction, the new HMA pavement should be installed.

Alternative Option: Full-Depth Reconstruction of Asphalt Pavement Section and Construction of New Pavements

Full-depth reconstruction involves removal of existing asphalt and aggregate base and replacement of the entire pavement section. Subgrade preparation in reconstructed and proposed pavement areas should be as described in the "Site and Subgrade Preparation" section of this report. The pavement sections recommended in this section are based on procedures contained in the 1993 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures.

The design recommendations provided are based on the following:

Flexible Pavement Basis of Design AASHTO design method Low volume roads Level of reliability 75 percent Analysis period 15 to 25 years Low traffic level, no. 18-kip ESAL 50,000 to 300,000 Number of rehabilitation periods during analysis period 1

October 27, 2023

The following flexible pavement sections are recommended:

Flexible Pavement Section Traffic Condition Standard Duty Heavy Duty Sand subbase thickness, inches 10 12 Aggregate base thickness, inches 6 10 Bituminous leveling course thickness, inches 2.0 3.0 Bituminous wearing course thickness, inches 1.5 2.0

The following materials are recommended:

Flexible Pavement Materials Material Standard Duty Heavy Duty Sand subbase MDOT Class II granular MDOT Class II granular Aggregate base MDOT 21AA MDOT 21AA Bituminous leveling MDOT 13A MDOT 3C Bituminous wearing MDOT 36A MDOT 4C Minimum binder grade PG 58-28 PG 64-28

Sand subbase material should be laboratory tested to confirm MDOT Class II grading requirement. MDOT standard specifications for materials and placement should be observed.

It is recommended that cracks that may develop in the pavement be quickly and properly sealed through a regular maintenance program. Also, the subgrade should be sufficiently sloped (2 percent minimum) to provide drainage within the sand subbase and underdrains should be provided within the subbase, around catch basins and pavement edges, to facilitate drainage. At each catch basin, four underdrains with a watertight connection should extend out radially at least 20 ft. A suitable rubberized asphalt sealant should be placed between all concrete curb/HMA joints immediately after paving.

Alternative Option: Partial-Depth Replacement of Asphalt Pavement Section

We understand that partial-depth replacement of the asphalt is under consideration; however, we do not anticipate the pavement remaining after milling will have sufficient integrity to provide a stable base prior to application of the overlay. In most areas of the site, due to the existing pavement thicknesses and the poor condition of several pavement areas, a partial-depth replacement is not recommended. For portions of the facility with greater than 2 inches of existing asphalt and where pavement is in fair condition, it may be possible to utilize a partial-depth replacement of the existing asphalt, should a shorter pavement life span than our recommended section be acceptable to the Owner.

October 27, 2023

If partial depth replacement is selected for pavement in fair condition, we recommend replacing at least 1.5 inches of existing asphalt with an MDOT 36A wearing course with binder grade a minimum of PG 58-28. The wearing course lift should be placed and compacted in order to match the existing grades of the adjacent pavement surfaces.

Alternate Option: Asphalt Overlay or Chip Seal

We understand that an asphalt overlay is under consideration; however, it is not recommended as it is expected that an asphalt overlay will undergo early deterioration due to the poor condition of the existing pavement. Reflective cracking from the cracks already existing in the pavement is anticipated to appear within the overlay within 1 to 3 years after application.

Chip sealing is a type of overlay that involves placement of aggregate onto the pavement surface after it has been prepared with liquid asphalt binder. On a pavement in good to fair condition, a chip seal may extend the pavement life by 3 to 5 years; however, it is expected to have significantly less utility on pavements in poor condition such as those generally encountered in this investigation.

Rigid Pavement

Subgrade preparation should be as described in the “Site and Subgrade Preparation” section of this report. For design of rigid pavements supported on-grade, a modulus of subgrade reaction value, K30, of 100 psi/inch is recommended. A minimum concrete thickness of 8 inches is recommended. A plain jointed (unreinforced) concrete pavement with proper spacing of control joints is recommended. Load transfer devices (dowel bars) are not expected to be necessary given the relatively low expected frequency of truck loading. A minimum 6-in base of MDOT Class II sand should be placed underneath the concrete. The concrete strength should be designed for a minimum modulus of rupture, S'c, of 600 psi and the concrete should be air-entrained. The pavement should be properly jointed (sawcut) with the joints sealed. A jointing plan should be prepared as part of the design. Typically, joints are placed every 12 to 15 ft with the sawcut extending approximately 1/4 of the pavement depth.

Site and Subgrade Preparation

All topsoil, vegetation, roots and any other miscellaneous debris should be removed from within the proposed construction areas. The limits of the proposed construction area, prior to the placement of any structures or engineered fill material, should be proof-rolled by the contractor and, where granular soil is present, compacted to at least 95 percent of the soil's maximum ASTM D1557 dry density. Proof-rolling is defined as the passing of relatively heavy construction equipment over the soil subgrade under observation by the Geotechnical Engineer. The response of the soil, when subjected to the applied load, is subjectively evaluated by qualified geotechnical personnel with respect to its ability to support the

October 27, 2023 overlying soil or structure. In areas where excessive deflection is observed, special subgrade preparation measures may be recommended to provide an acceptable subgrade condition.

These measures may consist of compaction of the subgrade at moisture contents close to the optimum value, undercutting affected areas and replacing with engineered fill, use of a geotextile separation fabric or some combination of these measures.

The following borings encountered buried topsoil or peat:

Boring B-8 encountered buried topsoil to a depth of 2.7 ft (el 915.2) and a layer of amorphous peat (PT) from 4.6 to 5.1 ft (els 912.8 to 913.3).

Boring B-16 encountered a layer of amorphous peat (PT) from 2.5 to 3.7 ft (el 914.8 to

916.0).

Boring B-17 encountered intermittent buried topsoil from 3.5 to 4.5 ft (els 914.7 to 915.7).

In addition, Borings B-14 and B-19 encountered fill consisting of poorly graded sand with varying amounts of silty and clayey fines (SP-SM, SC), to depths ranging from 1.6 to 1.9 ft (els

916.6 to 922.5).

Due to the fill, buried peat and topsoil encountered in the field investigation, and due to variations that may exist between borings, it is possible that some form of subgrade improvement may be required. In particular, Borings B-8 in the perimeter drive, B-16 in the basketball court and B-17 in the interior sidewalk are of particular concern. Buried topsoil may be acceptable to be left in place provided it is sufficiently stable during proof rolling and is free of large debris and significant organic material. If full-depth reconstruction of the asphalt sections is selected, test pits may be used to identify the extents and depths of the buried organic soil. Even after proof rolling and test pit exploration, some risk of future poor performance may still be present for pavements supported on the organic materials.

Engineered fill is approved on-site or imported soil placed in uniform layers and compacted to a minimum required density. Generally, on-site soil with group symbols of SP or SP-SM are expected to be suitable for engineered fill. Imported fill should meet the requirements for MDOT Class II granular material.

Granular engineered fill and backfill should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the soil's maximum dry density as determined by the Modified Proctor test (ASTM D1557). Vibratory compaction methods are typically found to be most effective in granular soils; however, relatively light equipment should be used adjacent to retaining or basement walls to avoid overstressing the walls.

The fill should be placed and compacted in horizontal layers not exceeding 9 inches. Field density tests (ASTM D2922) should be taken on each lift, as the fill is being placed, to verify compliance with compaction specifications. If the earthwork takes place during winter months, fill must not be placed on frozen ground and fill with frozen conglomerations of soil must not be used.

October 27, 2023

Groundwater

Groundwater was encountered during the drilling activities in Borings B-6 and B-8 at depths ranging from 4.6 to 4.9 ft (els 913.3 to 914.5). Groundwater is not likely to be encountered during pavement rehabilitation considering minimal grade change is planned; however, if significant grade change is planned or undercuts are required to remove unsuitable soil, groundwater may be encountered. Groundwater may be encountered during construction and suitable control of groundwater should be anticipated and planned for accordingly before the start of construction. The contractor should be responsible for selecting and implementing an appropriate groundwater control system. The contractor should have previous dewatering experience on sites with similar conditions. Suitable silt and sediment traps should be incorporated into the dewatering system.

CLOSURE

In this report, descriptions of the geotechnical investigation, encountered conditions and recommendations for pavement rehabilitation have been presented. The limitations of this study are described in the Appendix.

The recommendations presented in this report are based upon a limited number of subsurface samples obtained from various sampling locations. The samples may not fully indicate the nature and extent of the variations that actually exist between sampling locations. For that reason, among others, we strongly recommend that a qualified geotechnical firm be retained to observe earthwork construction. If variations or other latent conditions become evident during construction, it will be necessary for us to review these conditions and our recommendations as appropriate.

Soil Variations

The recommendations in this report are based upon the data obtained from the soil borings.

This report does not reflect variations which may occur between these borings, and which would not become evident until construction. If variations then become evident, it would be necessary for a re-evaluation of recommendations of this report, after performing on-site observations.

Warranties

We have prepared this report in accordance with generally accepted soil and foundation engineering practices. We make no other warranties, either expressed or implied, as to the professional advice provided under the terms of our agreement and included in this report.

This report is prepared exclusively for our client and may not be relied upon by other parties without written consent from our office.

Boring Logs

In the process of obtaining and testing samples and preparing this report, we follow reasonable and accepted practice in the field of soil engineering. Field logs maintained during drilling describe field occurrences, sampling locations, and other information. The samples obtained in the field are subjected to additional testing in the laboratory and differences may exist between the field logs and the final logs. The engineer reviews the field logs and laboratory test data, and then prepares the final boring logs. Our recommendations are based on the contents of the final logs.

Review of Design Plans and Specifications

In the event that any changes in the design of the building or the location, however slight, are planned, our recommendations shall not be considered valid unless modified or approved in writing by our office. We recommend that we be provided the opportunity to review the final design and specifications in order to determine whether changes in the original concept may have affected the validity of our recommendations, and whether our recommendations have, in fact, been implemented in the design and specifications.
