Our findings are relative to the date and areas of our site work and should not be relied upon to represent conditions on
other areas or dates. Any subsequent site disturbances due to water erosion, rain waters, construction activities,
excavations, overgrown, vegetation, tratt and other disturbances will void this test and the site must be re -compacted and
re -tested prior to construction.

material only. In no way shall a compaction test replace a soil bearing capacity determination. A soil boring test must be
performed by the client prior to construction tolverify 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 Iinches of material. If no soil borings have been performed in the location of
the proposed structure, we recommend performing soil borings below all foundation. areas of the proposed structure to
