Pursuant:td your request, :FederalEngineering & Testing; Inc. (FET). has :performed a compaction test at the: referenced,
projedf on the reverse side: The purpose. .of. our: test was to_ determine the degree of compaction, of the tested layer of
material:only: In noway shall a compaction test replace a soil bearing capacity determination.:A soil booing test must be
performed by.the client_ Odor,to: construction Ito verify. subsoil conditions.. Our scope.of-services :only.included testing the top
12': of -added fill material.: FET was not contracted to perform.supervision:of the building pad preparation.: This.testing of the
added fill •material does not include. an analysis of the underlying soil materials to determine if.they are capable of supporting
the proposed structure without settlement.- This. density compaction test does not warranty any underlying soil materials or
:.conditions below the tested top 12 inctiesof.materaL . If no soil borings. have been:performed.in the`locationof the' -proposed
structure; we recommend performing soil borings below all foundation areas. of the. proposed structure to verify the underlying
-soil conditions..
Environmental. analysis. -of the, soil materials is :not part :of. the =scope of• services.• .Ifenvironmental. analysis of the -soils is
require d,.we can. provide.a:proposal forperforming an_environmental analysis of the. soil materials: Tlie=scope of services:is
;for determination .of the degree' of. oompact.ion of the.tested layer of material only. No, other analysis is implied or warranted. •
Job: project specifications were not available at the time the work was: performed. Determination.of.the pass/fail-compaction
:results are based on:current,common-industry` requirements' of:95%:of:the.ASTM D=1.55.7.standard for:buildirig-foundations.

required,:Federal.Engineed g.&Testing, Inc.:shall be notified:--
Our findings are relative to the:date.and- areas of our site:work.and:should -riot be relied upon to represent conditions on other
areas or dates. *Any subsequent. site -disturbances due :to water .erosion,' rain 'waters,, construction. activities, excavations,
