About this file
This is a Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey prepared by Geotechnical and Environmental Consultants, Inc. (GEC) for Newkirk Engineering, Inc. regarding the Beresford Avenue Extension Phase 2B project in Volusia County, Florida. The report documents subsurface soil and groundwater exploration conducted from February 10-19, 2024, to provide geotechnical engineering recommendations for site preparation and design of a proposed 6,000-linear-foot roadway extension from Balsam Falls Road to SR 44, along with a North Summit Avenue extension. The project scope includes recommendations for one wet stormwater pond, two dry stormwater ponds, and roadside swales. The exploration program consisted of 12 manual auger borings and 7 Standard Penetration Test borings to depths of 25 feet, field permeability testing, and groundwater measurements. Ground surface elevations range from approximately 68 to 81 feet NGVD along the alignment, with soils transitioning from poorly drained sandy soils with near-surface groundwater on the western end to excessively drained sandy soils with deeper groundwater on the eastern end.
The report presents comprehensive laboratory testing results including grain size analysis, Atterberg limits, organic content, natural moisture content, corrosion series testing, and Limerock Bearing Ratio determinations performed in accordance with Florida Standard Testing Methods and AASHTO standards. Soil stratigraphy identified predominantly fine sand strata with varying silt content and trace limerock deposits. The analysis indicates soils are generally classified as A-3 and A-2-4 per AASHTO standards, consistent with NRCS soil survey predictions for the area. Design recommendations address standard embankment construction, pavement design utilizing LBR methodology per FDOT specifications, stormwater swale and pond design based on permeability test results, and suitability assessment of excavated pond materials for reuse as fill material.

1.0 SITE LOCATION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The site is located at North Summit Avenue in Volusia County, Florida as shown on Figure 1. The project alignment consists of an approximately 6,000-linear-foot extension of Beresford Avenue from the existing intersection of Balsam Falls Road (Sta. 231) to the existing intersection of SR 44
(Sta. 265) and roadway extension from North Summit Ave (Sta. 5) to Beresford Avenue (Sta. 19).
Beresford Avenue is currently an unpaved dirt road. Based on review of available data, soils along this section of road range from poorly drained sandy soils with near surface groundwater levels along the western end of the alignment to excessively drained sandy soils with groundwater levels deeper than 6 feet near the eastern end of the alignment. Vegetation along the alignment is comprised of dense tree coverage. A water feature is along the northern side of the alignment near the western end.
We understand that project plans include the extension of Beresford Avenue as a 2-lane, divided urban section roadway and the reconstructing of the SR 44 and North Summit Avenue intersections. In addition to the roadway improvements, we have also provided recommendations for the one proposed wet stormwater pond (Pond 2), two proposed dry stormwater ponds (Ponds 1 and 3) and roadside swales (Swales 1, 3, 4 and 5) along Beresford
Avenue.
This report describes our exploration procedures, exhibits the data obtained and presents our conclusions and recommendations regarding the geotechnical engineering aspects of the roadway elements proposed for this project.
2.0 REVIEW OF AVAILABLE DATA
To obtain general information on soil and groundwater conditions along the project alignment, GEC reviewed available data including the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Quadrangle Maps, the
Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS) Soil Survey Map of Volusia County and other published sources. A summary of this information is presented in the following report sections.
2.1 USGS Quadrangle Maps
Based on review of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Daytona Beach SW, Florida and DeLand, Florida Quadrangle maps, the ground surface elevation along the project alignment ranges from approximately +68 to +81 feet NGVD (+67 to +80 feet NAVD88) along the proposed Beresford
Avenue roadway extension. The project alignment is depicted on an excerpt of the USGS
Quadrangle Maps (Figure 1) in the Appendix.

These soils are generally classified as poorly drained to excessively drained, nearly level to gently sloping fine sands (A-3, A-2-4). The NRCS predicts seasonal high groundwater levels for these soil types to generally range from 0.0 to greater than 6 feet below the natural ground surface.
GEC Project No. 5471G 3 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
Information contained in the NRCS Soil Survey is very general and may be outdated. Therefore, it may not be reflective of actual soil and groundwater conditions, particularly if recent development in the site vicinity has modified soil conditions or surface/subsurface drainage. The information obtained from recent soil borings provides a better characterization of actual site conditions.
2.3 FDEP Potentiometric Map Data
GEC reviewed potentiometric surface contour elevations of the Upper Floridan aquifer developed from September 2022 water level data (the most recent data available) from the
Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Florida Geological Survey Geospatial data entitled Upper Floridan Aquifer Potentiometric Surface. The FDEP map indicates the potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer in the project vicinity is approximately +28 feet
NGVD (+27 feet NAVD88).
Artesian groundwater conditions can be predicted based on comparison of the Floridan aquifer potentiometric surface and ground surface elevations. Since the existing ground surface at the site ranges from approximately +70 to +80 feet NAVD88, artesian flow conditions are not anticipated. Artesian conditions were not encountered in our soil borings.
3.0 SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
In addition to consulting the sources of information previously discussed for regional and site-specific soils data, a subsurface exploration was conducted to evaluate soil and groundwater conditions along the project alignment. The subsurface exploration is detailed in the following report sections.
3.1 Soil Boring Locations
Boring locations were established in the field using project plans and a handheld, sub-meter accuracy, Trimble Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) unit (Trimble TDC 600). Ground surface elevations at the boring locations were not surveyed but estimated from project topographic data provided by GeoData, Inc. Boring locations are depicted on Figure 2 in the Appendix. The boring locations reference the Beresford Avenue and the Summit Avenue centerline of construction.
GEC Project No. 5471G 4 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
3.2 Swales and Stormwater Ponds
GEC explored subsurface conditions in the proposed roadside swales by performing four
Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings (PB-1 to PB-4), alternating from south to north along the proposed alignment, to depths of 25 feet below the existing ground surface.
GEC explored subsurface conditions at the pond locations by performing 3 SPT borings (PB-5 to
PB-7) to a depth of 25 feet below the existing ground surface.
3.3 Manual Auger Borings
Standard barrel manual auger borings (AB-1 to AB-12) were performed in general accordance with ASTM Standard D1452. Manual auger borings were performed by manually turning a 3-inch diameter, 6-inch-long sampler into the soil until it was full, then retrieving the sampler and soil for visual classification. This procedure was repeated until the desired termination depth was achieved. Representative samples were collected for further visual examination and classification in the GEC laboratory.
3.4 Standard Penetration Test (SPT) Borings
Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings (PB-1 to PB-7) were drilled in general accordance with
ASTM Procedure D-1586. The boreholes were advanced by the rotary wash method with bentonite-based mud used as the circulating fluid and to help stabilize the borehole. GEC’s field crew obtained SPT samples continuously in the borings to a depth of 10 feet and at 5-foot depth intervals thereafter. A GEC engineering technician supervised the drilling operation, and collected, examined and visually classified each sample. Representative samples were collected for further visual examination and classification in the GEC laboratory.
3.5 Groundwater Measurement
Where encountered, a GEC engineering technician measured the depth to groundwater in the boreholes at the time of drilling and again after approximately 24 hours. Once the 24-hour groundwater measurements were recorded, the boreholes were backfilled with soil cuttings to the prevailing ground surface.
3.6 Permeability Tests
Falling head and constant head permeability tests were performed in the field at this site. The field permeability tests were performed by driving a 3-inch diameter casing into the ground to the desired test depth and washing the soil out of the casing with water. The casing was backfilled
GEC Project No. 5471G 5 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey with quartz gravel to 30 inches above the bottom of the casing and was then raised a distance of
24 inches.
When a falling head permeability test was conducted, water was added to the casing to achieve a stable water level. Once the water level stabilized, the water source was taken away and the drop in the water level in the casing with respect to time was recorded.
When a constant head permeability test was conducted, water was added to the casing to achieve a stable water level. Once the water level stabilized, the flow required to maintain the stable water level over time was measured.
These relationships were used to calculate the permeability of the soil. Field permeability tests and calculations were performed in general conformance with NAVFAC DM-7.1-108. The results of the permeability test are presented on Tables 7 and 8 in the Appendix.
3.7 Limerock Bearing Ratio (LBR) Sampling
Limerock Bearing Ratio (LBR) bulk samples were obtained at 5 locations along the proposed roadway alignment. Care was taken to obtain these samples from below the existing surficial root zone and soil expected to be removed during stripping and grubbing operations was not included in the bulk sample. Please refer to the Appendix for the LBR test results.
4.0 LABORATORY TESTING
Selected soil samples retrieved from the borings were tested in accordance with Florida Standard
Testing Methods (FM) and American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials
(AASHTO) testing methods. Our laboratory testing program is summarized on the following table:

The results of our laboratory classification tests (i.e.; grain size analysis, Atterberg limits, organic content and natural moisture content, etc.) are presented on the Roadway Soil Survey sheet on
(Figure 3) and Table 5 in the Appendix. LBR results are included in the Appendix.
Corrosion series tests were performed on representative samples obtained along the project alignment. Corrosion series test results are presented in Table 6 in the Appendix.
5.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
GEC’s field exploration was conducted from February 10, 2024 to February 19, 2024. The soil and groundwater conditions encountered are summarized in this section. Please refer to Figures
4 and 5 for a detailed description of the subsurface profile at each boring location shown on
Figure 2. The results of selected laboratory tests are presented on the Roadway Soi Survey Sheet on Figure 3.
The boring logs indicate subsurface conditions only at the specific boring locations at the time of our field exploration. Subsurface conditions, including groundwater levels, at other locations of the subject site may differ from conditions we encountered at the boring locations. Moreover, conditions at the boring locations can change over time. Groundwater levels fluctuate seasonally, and soil conditions can be altered by earthmoving operations.
The depths and thicknesses of the subsurface strata indicated on the boring logs were interpolated between samples obtained at different depths in the borings. The actual transition between soil layers may be different than indicated. These stratification lines were used for our analytical purposes. Earthwork quantity estimates based on the results of the borings will vary from the actual quantities measured during construction.
5.1 Soil Stratigraphy
The descriptions and stratum numbers used for the encountered soils are summarized as follows:

3 A-2-4 Light brown to brown silty fine sand (-200≥15%)
4 A-2-6 Gray clayey fine sand
GEC Project No. 5471G 7 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
5.2 Roadway Boring Results
In general, the roadway auger borings (AB-1 to AB-12) encountered fine sand to fine sand with silt (A-3) (Stratum 1) to the boring termination depth of 6 feet. Notably, AB-1 encountered fine sand with silt (A-3) (Stratum 1) to 4.5 feet deep, underlain by clayey fine sand (A-2-6) (Stratum 4) to a depth of 6.0 feet.
5.3 Swale and Pond Boring Results
In general, the majority of the swale borings (PB-1 to PB-4) and pond borings (PB-5, PB-6, and PB-
7) encountered very loose to medium dense fine sand (A-3) (Stratum 1) to silty fine sand (A-2-4)
(Strata 2 and 3) to boring termination depths of 25 feet.
Notably, swale boring (PB-3, PB-4) and pond borings (PB-5 to PB-7) encountered trace hardpan and trace organic material at depths ranging from 13 to 25 feet below the existing ground surface.
5.4 Field Permeability Test Results
GEC performed field permeability tests and laboratory permeability tests within the proposed swale and pond areas to measure the hydraulic conductivity of the in-situ soils. Horizontal permeability rates from the field permeability tests are shown adjacent to the boring profiles on the Pond and Swale Boring Results sheet (Figure 5). The results are also summarized on Table 7 in the Appendix.
5.5 Groundwater Levels
The encountered groundwater levels measured in the roadway borings ranged from 2.6 to 3.4 feet below the existing ground surface at the locations of AB-1, AB-2 and AB-3 from Stations
236+37 to 244+02. Groundwater was not encountered (GNE) at the locations of AB-4 through
AB-12 (conducted to 6 feet deep) from Stations 246+56 to 263+64 and 12+33 to 17+00. The encountered groundwater levels measured in swale and pond borings PB-1 to PB-7 ranged from
5.2 feet to 10.2 feet below the existing ground surface.
Groundwater levels can vary seasonally and with changes in subsurface conditions between boring locations. Alterations in surface and/or subsurface drainage brought about by site development can also affect groundwater level. Therefore, ground water depths measured at different times or at different locations along the project alignment can be expected to vary from those measured during this investigation.
GEC Project No. 5471G 8 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
For the purposes of this report, estimated seasonal high groundwater levels are defined as groundwater levels that are anticipated at the end of the wet season of a “normal rainfall” year under current site conditions. A “normal rainfall” year is defined as a year in which rainfall quantity and distribution were at or near historical rainfall averages.
Our estimated seasonal high groundwater levels for the roadway borings AB-1 to AB-12 are estimated to range from 0.5 to 1.0 feet deep from Stations 236+37 to 244+02 and are estimated to range from 5 to greater than 6 feet deep from Stations 246+56 to 263+64, and 12+33 to 17+00.
Seasonal high groundwater levels for swale and pond borings PB-1 to P-7 are estimated to range from 3.0 to 7.5 feet below the ground surface. Please refer Figures 4 and 5 in the Appendix for measured and estimated seasonal high groundwater levels at each boring location.
6.0 ANALYSES AND DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
The analyses and recommendations contained in this report are based in part on the data obtained from a limited number of soil samples and groundwater measurements obtained from widely-spaced borings. The investigation methods used indicate subsurface conditions only at the specific boring locations, only at the time they were performed, and only to the depths penetrated. Borings cannot be relied upon to accurately reflect the variations that usually exist between boring locations and these variations may not become evident until construction.
6.1 Standard Embankment Construction
The results of our geotechnical investigation indicate that the majority of the near-surface soils along the roadway alignment are suitable for support of the proposed roadway embankment construction. All fill soils placed for roadway construction should be selected in accordance with the FDOT Standard Plans, Index 120-001. The soils encountered on this project should be utilized as follows:
Table 4: Embankment Soil Utilization
Stratum
AASHTO Soil
Classification
Embankment Soil
Utilization
1 A-3 Select (S)
2 A-2-4 (-200<15%) Select (S)
3 A-2-4 (-200≥15%) Select (S)
4 A-2-6 Plastic (P)
The soils encountered in our borings classified as fine sand to fine sand with silt (A-3) to silty fine sand (A-2-4) (Strata 1, 2 and 3) should be treated as Select (S) material. The A-2-4 material may
GEC Project No. 5471G 9 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey retain excess moisture and may be difficult to dry and compact. Therefore, the contractor should be prepared to manipulate the moisture content of unstable subsoil as necessary to achieve stability and compaction requirements.
Some of the Stratum 1 material between depths of 13 and 25 feet was dense to very dense and may be difficult to excavate, penetrate and dewater. These soils may require special equipment and/or procedures to facilitate excavation, penetration and dewatering.
The encountered clayey fine sand (A-2-6)(Stratum 4) should be treated as Plastic (P) material.
Plastic soils encountered in excavations should be removed in accordance with FDOT Standard
Plans unless otherwise shown in the plans. Reuse of these soils should be in accordance with
FDOT Standard Plans. Plastic soils are not typically considered suitable for use as fill for embankment construction and excavation backfill because of the increased difficulty with handling, moisture conditioning and compacting these soils. These plastic soils may be blended with A-3 soils to help improve their compaction characteristics.
Embankment fill should be placed and compacted in accordance with the FDOT Standard Plans.
In-place density tests should be performed on fill soils to verify the specified degree of compaction. The minimum test frequency should be in accordance with the FDOT Materials, Sampling, Testing and Reporting Guide.
6.2 Pavement Design
Five representative bulk soil samples were obtained along the project alignment for Limerock
Bearing Ratio (LBR) testing. The LBR tests were performed on samples of Stratum 1 (A-3), which is the predominant shallow soil type encountered in our borings.
Our LBR analyses included the FDOT Mean Method and the 90 Percent Method. The FDOT Mean
Method resulted in a design LBR value of 32 and the 90 Percent Method resulted in a design LBR value of 36. We recommend a design LBR value of 32 (or equivalent Resilient Modulus value of
10,500 psi) for use in pavement design. The Individual Limerock Bearing Ratio (LBR) Test Reports and Design LBR Calculations are included in the Appendix.
After proper subsoil preparation, the pavement subgrade, base and surface courses should be constructed in accordance with the current FDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge
Construction.
Pavement design should be performed in accordance with the FDOT Flexible Pavement Design
Manual.
GEC Project No. 5471G 10 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
If final grades do not provide at least 3 feet of vertical separation between the bottom of the base course and the estimated seasonal high groundwater level, then an alternative base course such as asphalt base course (black base) and/or pavement underdrains may be required.
6.3 Stormwater Swale and Pond Design
The soils encountered at the pond and swale boring locations are predominantly fine sands with varying silt contents (A-3, A-2-4)(Strata 1, 2 and 3). The sandy soils are classified as Select (S) material and are suitable for use in roadway embankment and pond berm construction.
However, soils excavated below the water table will need to be dried to a moisture content near optimum to achieve the required degree of compaction. Soils excavated from the ponds should be placed in embankment and berm areas in accordance with the FDOT Standard Plans.
Based on the results of our subsurface exploration, Tables 7 and 8 in the Appendix summarize the groundwater levels and measured horizontal saturated permeability rates for use in the proposed swale and pond areas.
The roadside swales on the south side of the road (1, 3, 4 and 5) and the dry ponds (1 and 3) should be designed in accordance with our unconfined aquifer parameters in Table 8. The project plans also depict that Pond 2 is a wet pond and should be designed in accordance with the St.
Johns Water Management District’s design criteria provided in Table 7.
For wet pond design within the St. Johns Water Management District, we recommend using average normal groundwater levels of 2 feet below the seasonal high groundwater level as shown in Table 7. The measured groundwater depths and estimated seasonal high groundwater levels at the pond and swale boring locations are shown on Figure 5 in the Appendix.
The recommendations for soil permeability/infiltration values included in this report are based upon field testing of shallow site soils in their in-situ condition. Depending on the project construction schedule, the stormwater ponds/swales may be constructed early. This early construction of stormwater facilities can allow runoff from the site to enter these areas where excess silt or clay soil can be deposited upon the pond/swale bottom and/or side slopes. This silt and/or clay deposition can effectively reduce the permeability/infiltration of the exposed in-situ soils of the pond and cause the pond/swale to no longer function as designed. This same condition can also occur during post-construction pond/swale use, but the silt or clay deposit typically takes a much longer time; usually several years of use.
Therefore, to provide for the long-term performance of the proposed ponds/swales as originally designed, and to help prevent the deposition of silt or clay on the newly completed pond bottom or sides during and/or immediately after construction, we recommend the following:
GEC Project No. 5471G 11 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
• Leave the pond/swale bottom areas slightly higher (6 to 8 inches) than the proposed final grade and do not cut the pond/swale to final grade until construction of the site is essentially complete. The purpose of this recommendation is to help prevent silts, grease, oil or other materials from depositing on the final pond/swale bottom during construction. The stormwater pond/swale system is very susceptible to clogging by construction site-generated sediments. These sediments will inhibit the ability of the pond/swale to function properly. The contractor should wait until the end of construction to remove the 6 to 8 inches of excess soil at the pond/swale bottom and the contractor should scrape the pond/swale bottom thoroughly prior to sodding or seeding.
• If the pond/swale bottom and sides are to be sodded, use sand-grown rather than muck-grown sod. Muck-grown sod has a thick organic base which can greatly reduce infiltration. Seeding of the pond/swale bottom and sides would also be acceptable if proper erosion control measures are used until the vegetation is established.
6.4 Suitability of Soil Excavated From Ponds for Use as Fill
The soils encountered at the swale and pond boring locations are generally fine sand to silty fine sand (Strata 1, 2, and 3) (A-3, A-2-4), which are suitable for use as fill for roadway embankment construction. Soils excavated below the water table will need to be dried to a moisture content near optimum to achieve the required degree of compaction. Soils excavated from the ponds should be placed in embankment areas in accordance with FDOT Standard Plans.
The following are our recommendations for the encountered soils used a fill material:
• Soils indicated as fine sand and fine sand with silt (A-3) are suitable for use as engineered fill in structure and pavement areas.
• Soils indicated as silty fine sand (SM), with fines less than or equal to 15% and plastic index less than 10, are adaptable for use as fill, but will require drying to near optimum moisture content prior to compaction. Special procedures such as aerating or mixing with fine sand
(A-3) (Stratum 1) may be required to achieve minimum compaction criteria. In addition, fill compaction lifts should be no more than 1 foot, and thinner lifts may be necessary depending on the initial soil moisture content. It is recommended that these soils not be utilized in the upper 3 feet of site grading due to the relatively low permeability rate of these soils when compacted, which can create artificial, perched groundwater conditions.
• Soils with fines content greater than 15% and/or a plastic index greater than 10 (A-2-4, A-2-6) are not recommended for use as engineered fill and should be placed in non-drainage sensitive areas or removed from the site. This material is extremely moisture
GEC Project No. 5471G 12 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey sensitive and requires significant handling to facilitate drying and compaction. Pond bottoms should be established to minimize excavation of this material.
Where cemented soils (hardpan) are present, the dewatering system design will need to consider the relatively impervious and dense characteristics of these soils. Well-point screens may need to be placed above and below the cemented soils. An experienced dewatering contractor should be retained to evaluate specific dewatering system requirements.
Cemented sand (hardpan) were encountered in the SPT swale and pond borings at various depths. These soils are generally undetectable in auger borings and may be undetectable in SPT borings. Sometimes, their presence can be inferred by high “N” values (often greater than 30 bpf) in SPT borings. However, cementation can also be present in layers with blow counts less than 30 bpf. These soils may be difficult to excavate and may require special consideration from the Contractor in choosing the proper equipment for excavation. A note alerting the Contractor that difficult excavation and special equipment/procedures may be required should be added to the plans.
7.0 REPORT USE AND LIMITATIONS
This section of the report presents important information regarding the proper use of this report, our investigative methods and the limitations of this study. The test data, conclusions and recommendations presented in this report should be reviewed and applied with these limitations in mind.
Subsurface Variability. The analyses and recommendations contained in this report are based in part on the data obtained from a limited number of soil samples and groundwater measurements obtained from widely-spaced borings. The sampling methods used indicate subsurface conditions only at the specific boring locations where samples were obtained, only at the time they were obtained, and only to the depths penetrated. Borings cannot be relied upon to accurately reflect the variations that usually exist between boring locations and these variations may not become evident until construction. Conditions at the boring locations can change over time.
Groundwater levels fluctuate seasonally, and soil conditions can be altered by earthmoving operations.
Soil Stratification. The depths and thicknesses of the subsurface strata indicated on the boring logs were interpolated between samples obtained at different depths in the borings. The actual transition between soil layers may be different than indicated. These stratification lines were used for our analytical purposes. Earthwork quantity estimates based on the results of the borings will vary from the actual quantities measured during construction.
GEC Project No. 5471G 13 Final Report of Roadway Soil Survey
Groundwater Measurements. Groundwater levels can vary seasonally and with changes in subsurface conditions between boring locations. Alterations in surface and/or subsurface drainage brought about by site development can also affect groundwater levels. Therefore, groundwater depths measured at different times or at different locations on the site can be expected to vary from those measured by GEC during this investigation.
Groundwater Predictions. For purposes of this report, estimated seasonal high groundwater levels are defined as groundwater levels that are anticipated at the end of the wet season during a “normal rainfall” year under pre-development site conditions. We define a “normal rainfall” year as a year in which rainfall quantity and distribution were at or near historical averages.
Construction Variations. If variations from the subsurface conditions described in this report do become evident during construction, GEC should be retained to reevaluate this report's conclusions and recommendations, and modify the recommendations included in this report, if needed, in light of such changes.
Plans/Specifications Review. GEC should be provided with the construction plans and specifications prior to bidding so that we can verify that the recommendations presented in this report were correctly interpreted and incorporated into the plans and specifications. The recommendations in this report were not written in specification language and are not intended to be used verbatim as a part of the plans and specifications. This report should not be wholly incorporated into the project contract documents.
Design Changes. The conclusions or recommendations of this report should be disregarded if the nature, design, or location of the facilities is changed. If such changes are contemplated, GEC should be retained to review the new plans to assess the applicability of this report in light of the proposed changes.
Contamination Exclusion. The sole purpose of the borings performed by GEC at this site was to obtain indications of subsurface conditions as part of a geotechnical exploration program. GEC has not evaluated the site for the potential presence of contaminated soil or groundwater, nor have we subjected any soil samples to analysis for contaminants.
Report Reliance. GEC has prepared this report for the exclusive use of our clients, Newkirk
Engineering Inc. and Volusia County, for specific application to this project. GEC is not responsible for any third party’s interpretation or use of this report’s subsurface data, engineering analysis or recommendations without our written authorization.
