This document is a Subsurface Investigation Location Plan and Test Boring Profiles for the Upgrades to Wilkes-Barre VA Hospital Clinic, prepared by Advantage Engineers on 4/17/2013. The first page presents an aerial site plan of the hospital location in Plains Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, showing building footprints, parking areas, and locations of six subsurface investigation points (Auger Probe AP-1 and Test Boring locations B-1 through B-5).

The second page provides detailed test boring profiles, revealing geological strata at each investigation point. The geological composition includes topsoil/asphalt, fill, grey to brown gravel with silt and sand, and bedrock (slightly weathered, highly fractured grey to brown sandstone). Elevation data ranges from approximately 889.0 to 900.0 feet, with groundwater depth and rock coring data also recorded. These geotechnical investigations are crucial for understanding subsurface conditions to support infrastructure upgrade planning for the VA hospital clinic project.
