(commencing with Business Professions Code section 7000). The law has an exemption that allows a person
who is not a California Licensed Contractor to construct a single-family residential structure and engage in
home improvements and repairs, provided they meet certain requirements. (Form B-61 provides information
about the requirements that apply to Owner-Builders makes you aware of your responsi bilities and possible
risk you may incur by having a permit issued to an Owner-Builder.) Permits for multi-family projects are only
to be issued to California Licensed Contractors. Refer to Form B-16 for other frequently asked questions.

subject of this application.
I/We understand that State law mandates the Applicant to provide an estimated va lue of all work
proposed (B-29 form). I/We hereby certify the construction valuation provided is accurate and
includes all proposed work such as all structural work, finish work, painting, roofing, electrical,
plumbing, heating, air conditioning, elevator, labor costs, and all permanent equipment and systems.
If the valuation is underestimated, the permit may be denied, unless the Applicant can show detailed
estimates to meet the approval of the Building Official.
If the Applicant is not the Property Owner, both the Property Owner and Applicant (authorized
Contractor or authorized Agent of the Property Owner/Contractor) must sign below. By signing this
declaration, the Property Owner authorizes the Applicant listed in this application to act as the
Property Owner's Agent on all matters before the city pertaining to development on this property.
I/We understand that State law requires construction to be done by a Licensed Contractor and the
Property Owner may apply for an Owner-Builder permit under an exemption from the law.
¢ A. If the Contractor is the Applicant, the License Contractor Declaration on page 4
must be completed.
D B. If the Applicant is an Owner-Builder, an Owner-Builder affidavit is required and
must be submitted (Form B-61). The city will not issue a building permit until this form
has been submitted. The License Contractor Declaration on page 4 does not need to
be submitted.
I/We have read this application form in its entirety and reviewed the building permit application and
the information I/we have provided is true and correct to the best of our knowledge. Grade lines as
shown on drawings accompanying this application are assumed to be correct. This certifies that the
description of the project and all the plans and supporting documentation; including the location and
labeling of all existing and proposed buildings, structures, access roads, and utilities and easements;
are accurate in all material respects as of the date when made. I/We understand that it is my
responsibility to ensure that statements and representations are not misleading. I/We agree to
promptly remove, correct, or add information as needed to correct any misleading or materially
inaccurate information. I/We understand that any misstatement or omission of the requested
information or of any information subsequently requested might be grounds for rejecting the

CBR2024-1061
In accordance with your request, a Site Inspection has been performed at the subject site. The
purpose of this investigation was to examine existing site conditions and provide engineering
recommendations for the proposed accessory dwelling unit.
If project details vary significantly from those described, Soil Testers should be notified
prior to final submittal for revision and possible revision of the recommendations
presented herein.
This report is issued with the understanding that it is the responsibility of the owner or the
owner's representative to ensure that the information and recommendations contained herein
are brought to the attention of the architect and engineer for the project and incorporated into
the plans, and the necessary steps are taken to see that the contractor and subcontractors carry
out such recommendations in the field.
Serious issues can arise when those relying on the report have not read the report in its
entirety. It is recommended to read the entire report and not rely on summaries or selected
elements of this report.

Seth Hoenig File No. 24-1106E4 May 21, 2024
FIELD INSPECTION
In order to accomplish this purpose, a representative of this firm visited the site, reviewed the
topography and site conditions and visually and texturally classified the surface and near
surface soils. Representative samples of the on-site soils were obtained from a test
exploration approximately 4 feet in depth and tested for density, and expansive
characteristics.
SITE CONDITIONS
The subject site is located on the easterly side of South Buena Vista Circle. The property is
relatively level and occupied by a single family residential structure. Neighboring properties
are occupied by single and multi-family residential structures with the Buena vista Lagoon to
the northwest. Fill materials were encountered to a depth of approximately 3 feet during the
course of this inspection.
SOIL CONDITIONS
Soils encountered in the test exploration are fill soils consisting of loose to firm, dark brown,
silty, fine to medium sands to approximately 3 feet in depth underlain by native soils
consisting of dense, light brown, silty, fine to medium sands with silt to the bottom of the
exploration, approximately 4 feet in depth.
The soils we encountered were not considered to be detrimentally expansive with respect to
change in volume with change in moisture content.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A representative sample of the foundation soil was remolded to 90% of max.imum
dry density. Based on the following test results, a safe allowable bearing value of
at least 2000 pounds per square foot for 12 inch deep footings may be used in
designing the foundations and slab for the proposed structures. This value may be
increased by one third for wind and/or seismic loading. This value may be
increased by 20 percent for each additional foot of depth and or width to a
maximum of 3 times the designated value.

Seth Hoenig File No. 24-1106E4 May 21, 2024
2. The soils we encountered were considered to be Non Expansive Index (EI), (with
the valve ranging from O to 20) with respect to change in volume
along with change in moisture content. For the remaining indexes: Low (EI=2 l-
50), medium (EI=51-90), high (EI=91-130), and very high (EI >130).
3. Lateral resistance to horizontal movement may be provided by the soil passive
pressure and friction of concrete to soil. An allowable passive pressure of 250
pounds per square foot per foot of depth may be used. A coefficient of friction of
0.35 is recommended. The soil's passive pressure may be increased by 1/3 for
wind and seismic loading.
4. The seismic parameters for the site coordinates 33.16677°N, -117.35030°W for
assumed Site Class D are as follows:
• Ss = 1.070 g
• S1 =0.387g
Sms = 1.284 g
Sm1 = null
Sds = 0.856 g
Sd1 = null
5. The existing fill soils we encountered should not be utilized to support the proposed
single family residence. They should be removed and recompacted to at least 90
percent of maximum dry density in accordance with the Grading Specifications in this
report in order to provide adequate support for the proposed new structures.
Anticipated depth of recompaction is approximately 3 feet for the proposed one story
structure. The recompaction should extend at least five feet outside the proposed
building footprints. Organic materials and roots must be removed from the soils
before replacement. A representative of this firm should be scheduled during the
grading operation for testing and observation. Manual means of compaction may be
needed adjacent to existing structures.
6. Conventional spread footings founded a minimum of 12 inches below lowest adjacent
grade and 12 inches into competent native soils, having a width determined by the
allowable soil bearing value as detailed above are recommended for foundation
support. Footing widths should be at least 12 inches for continuous footings and 24
inches for square footings due to practical considerations as well as Building Code
requirements. These recommendations are based entirely upon the soil types and do
not take into consideration the requirements of the proposed structure.
7. Reinforcing in footings should consist of at least one #4 steel bar placed continuously
in the top and bottom of continuous footings regardless of structural requirements.
Reinforcing for isolated footings is dictated by the structural requirements. These
recommendations are based upon the soil type encountered and do not take into
consideration the proposed bearing load.

Seth Hoenig File No. 24-1106E4 May 21, 2024
8. Concrete Slab-On-Grade, SOG for the garages, should be designed by the project's
structural engineer based on anticipated loading conditions. We recommend that
conventional reinforced concrete SOG for this project be founded on 4 inches of
Class II Virgin Aggregate Base (with approximately 2% +/-over optimum moisture
content and 90% compaction, relative to the lab maximum dry density, ASTM D
1557), overlying a 12 inch thick zone of adequately placed and compacted
structural fill. The structural fill will be accomplished during the removal and
recompaction of the existing fill soils.
We recommend that a moisture barrier be provided by a membrane, visqueen 10
mils in minimum thickness or equivalent, be placed at top of well compacted Class
II Aggregate Base, then covered with 2 inches of moist clean sand having a
minimum sand equivalent of 30 when tested in accordance with the American
Society of Testing and Materials test method 'ASTM D2419. An additional 2 inches
of moist clean sand may be used in lieu of the Class II Base.
Floor slabs, as a minimum, should be 5 inches thick with #4 reinforcing steel at 16"
on-center each way. Reinforcement should be placed at mid-height of the slab. The
final slab thickness and reinforcement should be determined by the structural
design engineer. Control joints should be provided in accordance with the
recommendations of the structural design engineer.
SITE EROSION CONTROL
During construction, surface water should be controlled via berms, gravel bags and/or
sandbags, silt fence, straw wattles, siltation basins, or other methods to avoid damage to
the finish work or adjoining properties, while maintaining positive surface grades. All
site entrances and exits must have coarse gravel or steel shaker plates to minimize offsite
sediment tracking. Best management Practices (BMP's) must be used to protect storm
drains and minimize pollution. The contractor should take measures to prevent erosion of
graded areas until such time as permanent drainage and erosion control measures have
been installed. After completion of grading, all excavated surfaces should exhibit
positive drainage and eliminate areas where water might pond.
SITE AND SURFACE DRAINAGE
Drainage at the site should be directed away from foundations, collected and tight lined to
appropriate discharge points. Consideration may be given to collecting roof drainage by
eave gutters and directing it away from foundations via non-erosive devices. Water, either
natural or from irrigation, should not be permitted to pond, saturate the surface soils or
flow towards the foundation. Landscaping requiring a heavy irrigation schedule should not
4
Seth Hoenig File No. 24-1106E4 May 21, 2024
be planted adjacent to foundations or paved areas. The type of drainage issues found within
the project and materials specified and used should be determined by the Engineer of
Record.
GROUNDWATER AND SURF ACE WATERS
There was no indication of a near-surface groundwater table or perched groundwater
within the depths of our test exploration. Although groundwater is not expected to be a
significant constraint to the proposed development, our experience indicates that near-
surface groundwater conditions can develop in areas where no such groundwater
conditions previously existed, especially in areas where a substantial increase in surface
water infiltration results from landscape irrigation or unusually heavy precipitation. It is
anticipated that site development will include appropriate drainage provisions for control
and discharge of surface water runoff. The type of drainage issues found within the project
and materials specified and used should be determined by the Civil Engineer. The type of
plants and soil specified along with proper irrigation used should be determined by the
Landscape Architect.
The following grading specifications should be utilized if grading is proposed.
RECOMMENDED GRADING SPECIFICATIONS
For
Proposed Residential Building Site
2400 Buena Vista Circle
City of Carlsbad
GENERAL: Soil Testers and 'Engineer' are synonymous hereinafter and shall be employed
to inspect and test earthwork in accordance with these specifications, the accepted plans, and
the requirements of any jurisdictive governmental agencies. They are to be allowed adequate
access so that the inspections and tests may be performed. The Engineer shall be apprised of
schedules and any unforeseen soil conditions.
Substandard conditions or workmanship, inadequate compaction, adverse weather, or
deviation from the lines and grades shown on the plans, etc., shall be cause for the
engineer to either stop construction until the conditions are corrected or recommend
rejection of the work. Refusal to comply with these specifications or the
recommendations and/or interpretations of the engineer will be cause for the engineer
and/or his representative to immediately terminate his services.
A pre-construction meeting or conference with the developer, contractor, civil engineer,
soil engineer, and the agency inspector in attendance should be held at the site prior to
5
Seth Hoenig File No. 24-1106E4 May 21, 2024
the beginning of the grading operations. Special soil handling requirements can be
discussed at that time.
Grading of the site should commence with the removal of all vegetation and existing
improvements from the area to be graded. Deleterious material and debris such as
broken asphalt and concrete, underground pipe materials, wires, trash, etc. if
encountered, should be exported from the site and should not be mixed with the fill
soils.
Abandoned foundations and buried septic tanks or cisterns (if encountered) should be
removed and the subsequent depressions and /or trenches should be filled with properly
compacted materials as part of the remedial grading.
All fill and backfill soils should be placed in horizontal loose layers approximately 8
inches thick, moisture conditioned to a water content of one to three percent above
optimum moisture content, and compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction, as
determined by ASTM Test Method D 1557-00.
The excavation bottom should then be scarified to a depth of approximately 6 to 8
inches, moisture-conditioned to I to 3 percent above optimum moisture content, and re-
compacted to a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent in accordance with ASTM
D 1556-00 or D6938-17ael. Excavated sandy or clayey soils should then be uniformly
moisture conditioned at above optimum moisture content, placed in 8-inch-thick loose
layers and compacted to a relative compaction of at least 90 percent.
Import fill soil, if required, should consist of granular materials with low expansion
potential (El less than 50 or stated by the soil engineer) and should be compacted as
indicated herein. Soil Testers should be notified of the import source and should
perform laboratory testing of the soil prior to its arrival at the site to determine its
suitability as fill material.
Deviations from the recommendations of the Soil Report, from the plans, or from these
Specifications must be approved in writing by the owner and the contractor and
endorsed by the engineer.

PREPARATION OF AREAS TO RECEIVE FILL:
Brush, trash, debris and detrimental soils shall be cleared from the areas to receive fill.
Detrimental soils shall be removed to firm competent soil. Slopes exceeding 20% should be
stepped uphill with benches 1 O' or greater in width. Scarify area to receive fill to 6" depth and
compact.
FILL MATERIAL shall not contain insufficient fines, oversized particles, or excessive
organics. On-site disposition of oversized rock or expansive soils is to be at the written
direction of the Engineer. Select fill shall be as specified by the engineer. All fills shall be
compacted and tested.
SUBDRAINS shall be installed if required by and as directed by and detailed by the engineer
and shall be left operable and unobstructed. They shall consist of 3" plastic perforated pipe set
in a minimum cover of 4" of filter rock in a 'vee' ditch to intercept and drain free ground from
the mass fills. Perforated pipe shall be schedule 40, Poly-Vinyl-Chloride or Acrylonitrile
Butadienne Styrene plastic. Rock filter material shall conform to the following gradation:

Subdrains shall be set at a minimum gradient of 0.2% to drain by gravity and shall be tested
by dye flushing before acceptance. Drains found inoperable shall be excavated and replaced.
CAPPING EXPANSIVE SOILS: If capping expansive soils with non-expansive soil to
mitigate the expansive potential is used, the cap should be compacted, non-expansive, select
soil placed for a minimum thickness 3' over the expansive soil and for a minimum distance of
8' beyond the exterior perimeter of the structure. Special precautions should be taken to
ensure that the non-expansive soil remains uncontaminated and the minimum thickness and
dimensions around the structure are maintained. The expansive soils underlying the cap of
non-expansive cap should be pre-saturated to a depth of 3' to obtain a degree saturation

This checklist is intended to help building permit applicants identify which Climate 1tin Ian (CAP) ordinance requirements
apply to their project. This completed checklist (B-50) and summary (B-55) must be included with the building permit
application. The Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) can be referenced during completion of this document.
NOTE: The following type of permits are not required to fill out this fOOTI
❖ Patio I ❖ Decks I ❖ PME (w/o panel upgrade) I ❖ Pool
The B-50 checklist was originally developed several years ago to support implementation of the CAP. Recent updates to
the California Building Standards Code have imposed newer performance standards on building permit applications.
Therefore, the applicant is advised to review all applicable code sections and apply the maximum performance standard,
which may exceed the CAP consistency checklist requirements
Consultation with a certified Energy Consultant is encouraged to assist in filling out this document. Appropriate
certification includes, but is not limited to: Licensed, practicing Architect, Engineer, or Contractor familiar with Energy
compliance, IECC/HERS Compliance Specialist, ICC GB Energy Code Specialist, RESNET HERS rater certified, certified
ICC Residential Energy Inspector/Plans Examiner, ICC Commercial Energy Inspector and/or Plans Examiner, ICC CALgreen
Inspector/Plans Examiner, or Green Building Residential Plan Examiner.
If an item in the checklist is deemed to be not applicable to a project, or is less than the minimum required by ordinance,
check N/A and provide an explanation or code section describing the exception.
The project plans must show all details as stated in the applicable Carlsbad Municipal Code (CM C) and/or Energy Code and
Green Code sections.
