About this file
This is a soil resistivity test results document prepared by Tectonic Engineering Consultants for Ulster County's proposed public safety radio tower project located at 1915 Lucas Avenue in the Hamlet of Cottekill, Town of Rosendale, New York. The document provides technical site investigation data supporting the construction of a 190-foot-tall self-support antenna tower, a prefabricated equipment shelter, and associated infrastructure within a fenced compound. The file includes a site plan identifying boring, infiltration, and soil resistivity test locations (designated as B-1 through B-6, INF-1, and TEST-1 through TEST-4) relative to the existing Rosendale Police Department building, existing asphalt parking lot, proposed gravel access drive, proposed fiber cabinet location, and the approximate footprint of a future highway garage complex. The plan was based on a topographic survey conducted by Tectonic Engineering dated September 18, 2024, with all test locations considered approximate as field-located by the engineering firm.
The soil resistivity testing was conducted on January 12, 2026, using AEMC Instruments Model 6472 Digital Ground Resistance Testers employing the Wenner Four Point method with electrode spacing measurements at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, and 100 feet. Test 3 recorded resistivity values ranging from approximately 11,300 to 254,327 ohm-centimeters across varying electrode depths and spacing configurations, with measurements oriented northwest to southeast. Test 4 yielded resistivity values ranging from approximately 21,200 to 324,803 ohm-centimeters with a southwest to northeast orientation. Weather conditions during testing were clear with temperatures at 45 degrees Fahrenheit, with surface elevations noted as varying across the site referenced to NAVD88 datum.
