We have reviewed the referenced updated geotechnical investigation report (Reference No. 4) and revisited the site. The recommendations presented in the referenced report have been partially modified to reflect changes in the standard of practice in the industry and to conform to the current California Building Code. These recommendations should be incorporated into the project design and construction. SITE CONDITIONS We revisited the site on October 2, 2025 . The site conditions are similar to those described in the referenced geotechnical report. However, an unpermitted wall was constructed and is now in the process of being permitted and then rebuilt. Accordingly, we did not consider it necessary to perform an additional subsurface exploration or soil testing. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION The proposed new construction consists of a new keystone retaining wall to be built west of the existing second dwelling unit. SEISMIC DESIGN VALUES Updated seismic design values are presented on the attached Figure 1. This opportunity to be of service is appreciated.

Site grading was conducted between August 9 and 24, 2021 under the observation and testing of a representative of East County Soil Consultation & Engineering Inc. The surface soils within the building area for the proposed second dwelling unit and to a distance of at least 5 feet outside building limits were removed and replaced with compacted fill to a depth of 3 feet. The detached garage is located in a "cut" area and will be founded in dense terrace deposits. Fill soils consisting of on-site silty sand were placed in 6 to 8-inch-thick lifts, moisture- conditioned to near optimum moisture content and compacted in excess of 90 percent relative compaction. Compaction was achieved with the aid of a track loader. In-place field density tests were performed on the compacted fill in accordance with ASTM D1556 (Sand Cone Method). The results of the field density tests and fill compaction values are presented on Table 1, Fill Compaction Test Results. Results of a laboratory maximum density tests of the fill soils are presented on Table 2, Laboratory Maximum Density Test Results. The approximate field density/fill compaction test locations are shown on Figure 1.

We have reviewed the referenced Limited Site Investigation Report and Geo technical Report Update, dated April 21 , 2004 and July 23 , 2019, respectively (see attached Figure 1, References 2 and 3), and revisited the site . The recommendations presented in the referenced reports have been partially modified to reflect changes in the standard of practice in the industry and to conform to the current California Building Code. These recommendations should be incorporated into the project design and construction. SITE VISIT We revisited the site on April 6, 2021 . Conditions in the area of the proposed second dwelling unit and garage are similar to those described in the referenced geotechnical reports. Accordingly, we did not consider it necessary to perform additional subsurface exploration or soil testing. SEISMIC DESIGN VALUES Updated seismic design values are presented on the attached Figure 2. CONCLUSIONS The site is suitable for construction of the new, one-story, second dwelling unit and detached garage. The following updated footing and floor slab recommendations should be incorporated into the design and construction of the residence and garage, while the other recommendations presented in the referenced reports are still valid. Updated Geotechnical Report for New, One-Story, Second Dwelling Unit and Detached Garage 3960 Sunnyhill Drive Carlsbad, CA 92008 FOOTINGS Page 2 April 11, 2021 Project No. 03-1106H6(A) Continuous and/or individual footings should be founded in dense terrace deposits at a minimum depth of 18 inches below building pad grade or lowest adjacent, finished grade, whichever is deeper. Continuous footings should be reinforced with a minimum of four #4 steel bars, with two bars placed near the top of the footings and the other two bars placed near the bottom of the footings. Individual footings should be at least 18 inches square and reinforced with a grid of #4 bars spaced 12 inches on centers ( each way) and placed on concrete blocks at the bottom of the footing. FLOOR SLABS Floor slabs including garage slabs should be at least 5 inches thick and reinforced with #4 bars placed at 18 inches on centers in two directions in the middle of the slab . The reinforcing steel should be supported on steel chairs or concrete blocks. Floor slabs should be underlain by 2 inches of clean sand over a 10-mil visqueen moisture barrier over 2 inches of clean sand. To minimize the potential for shrinkage cracks, floor slab concrete should have a minimum compressive strength of 3,000 psi and maximum water-cement ratio of 0. 5.. No special inspection of concrete is necessary. Some shrinkage cracks are still possible. ADDffiONALSERVICES A review of plans and specifications, field observations and testing under our direction are integral parts of the recommendations made in this report. If East County Soil Consultation and Engineering, Inc. is not retained for these services, the client agrees to assume our responsibility for any potential claims that may arise during construction. Observation and testing are additional services, which are provided by our firm, and should be budgeted within the cost of development. This opportunity to be of service is appreciated.
