Dear Mr. Rick:
As requested, NV5, West Inc. (NV5) has conducted a geotechnical review of the above-referenced geotechnical
report for the proposed single-family residential project located at 5198 Shore Drive in Carlsbad, California.
The purpose of the review was to provide an opinion on whether the geotechnical aspects of the project have
been identified and appropriately addressed in the project geotechnical report. Our geotechnical review is based
on geotechnical information presented in the referenced geotechnical report and our experience with the
geotechnical conditions in the general site area. NV5 has not performed an independent geotechnical
investigation at the project site and therefore does not offer or imply any guarantee or warranty as to future site
performance. The opinions presented below are limited. Other consultants could arrive at different conclusions.
This report presents a summary of the review.
Review Summary
Based on our review, the referenced geotechnical report for the proposed project has generally identified
and addressed most of the significant geotechnical factors affecting the site development as currently
proposed, and the report is approved. Note that acceptance or approval of the reports do not guarantee or
constitute approval for grading or building permits.
