recommendations for the proposed Tabata residential development in Carlsbad, California. The approximate location of the site is shown in Figures 1A and 1B. The site vicinity is shown in more detail in Figures 2A and 2B. The residential complex will include 26 wood frame buildings and an access road, as shown in Figures 2C through 2E. The objective of this study was to provide site-specific geotechnical recommendations for remedial grading and the design and construction of the proposed structures, pavements and associated surface improvements. The recommendations presented herein are based on our subsurface exploration, laboratory testing, engineering and geologic analyses, and previous experience with similar geologic conditions. 1.1 Scope of Services This report was prepared in general accordance with the provisions of the referenced proposal (GDC, 2013b). In order to develop geotechnical recommendations for the development, the following services were provided. ● A geologic reconnaissance of the surface characteristics of the site, and a review of the pertinent reports referenced in Section 8.0. ● A subsurface exploration of the site including ten hollow stem auger borings and five cone penetrometer test (CPT) soundings. The approximate locations of the explorations are shown on the Exploration Plan. Logs of the explorations are presented in Appendix A. ● Laboratory testing of samples collected during the field explorations. The laboratory test results are summarized in Appendix B. ● Engineering analysis of the field and laboratory data to help develop recommendations for site preparation, remedial earthwork, foundation design, soil reactivity, and site drainage and moisture protection. Our analyses are summarized in Appendices C and D. ● Preparation of this report summarizing our findings, conclusions and geotechnical recommendations. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 7 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 1.2 Site Description The subject site consists of the proposed Tabata residential development in the City of Carlsbad, California. The site is located immediately southeast of the intersection between El Camino Real and Camino Hills Drive, which form the northern and western property boundaries, respectively. Existing single- family residential developments bound the southern and eastern edges of the property. The approximate location of the site is shown on the Site Location Map, Figure 1A. The site vicinity is shown in more detail in Figure 1B. The site slopes moderately down to the north. The elevation at the toe of the fill slope at the southeast corner of the parcel is roughly 120 feet above mean sea level (MSL). The elevation along El Camino Real in the northeast portion of the parcel is about 82 feet MSL. The surface of the site has been repeatedly graded over the years, and used for agricultural purposes. Most of the site is now covered with a light growth of weeds and grass. A landscaped 2:1 (horizontal to vertical) fill slope ascends as much as 40 feet up to the residential lots along the southern and eastern edges of the site. A few trees and shrubs are also scattered across Parcel 2 (see Figures 2A and 2B). A northwesterly trending ridgeline once crossed through the southwest corner of the property. Remnants of the ridge may remain in the previously demolished residential area (Parcel 2 in Figure 2B). However, topographic indications of the ridgeline have been mostly obliterated by the previous grading activities on site. Various cuts and fills appear to have been conducted throughout Parcel 2. The slopes that now border the perimeter of Parcel 2 appear to be graded fill slopes, as indicated by Boring B-5. 1.3 Proposed Development Site development will include 26 two-story residential buildings supported by post-tension slab foundations. Other site improvements will include a new asphalt concrete paved residential street, Portland cement concrete sidewalks, and various associated subsurface utilities. A bio-swale and detention basin is proposed along the northern edge of the site. A preliminary layout of the planned development is shown in Figures 2D and 2E. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 8 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 2.0 FIELD AND LABORATORY INVESTIGATION Ten hollow stem auger borings and five cone penetrometer test (CPT) soundings were advanced at the site between January 30th and February 5th, 2014. The maximum depth of exploration was approximately 65 feet below surrounding grades. The approximate locations of the explorations are shown in Figures 2A through 2E. Logs describing the geologic conditions encountered are presented in Appendix A. Soil samples were collected from the borings for laboratory testing and analysis. The testing program included gradation, hydrometer analysis and Atterberg Limits to aid in material classification using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Expansion Index tests were conducted on remolded samples to aid in post-tension slab design. Tests were conducted on relatively undisturbed ring samples to help estimate the in-situ dry density and moisture content of the various geologic materials we encountered on site. Direct shear tests were also conducted on the ring samples to aid in strength characterization for the slope stability analyses. Corrosivity tests were conducted on bulk soil samples to evaluate the pH, resistivity, chloride and sulfate content of the on-site soils. Maximum density tests were conducted on the bulk samples to help estimate shrinkage of the compacted alluvial soil. R-Value tests were also conducted on the bulk samples to aid in preliminary pavement section design. The laboratory test results are presented in Appendix B. 3.0 GEOLOGY AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The site is located within the coastal plain section of the Peninsular Ranges geomorphic province of California, which consists of subdued landforms underlain by marine sedimentary formations. As observed in our subsurface investigation, the entire site is underlain at depth by the Eocene-age Santiago Formation, which is covered with alluvial flood plain deposits associated with Agua Hedionda Creek. The approximate locations of the explorations conducted for this investigation are shown on Geotechnical Map, Figure 2B. The general geology in the site vicinity is shown on the Regional Geologic Map, Figure 3A. The regional topography is also shown in Figure 3B. Logs describing the subsurface conditions encountered in the explorations are presented in Appendix A. The soils encountered in our subsurface explorations are described in more detail below. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 9 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 3.1 Santiago Formation Sedimentary materials associated with the Eocene-age Santiago Formation were encountered in all of our borings at depth. As observed on site, the Santiago Formation (Map symbol Tsa) most commonly consists of sandy lean or fat claystone (Unified Soil Classification CL or CH) with lesser amounts of siltstone (ML). The formation varies widely in color from olive or bluish gray to light gray and orange brown. The claystone is typically high in plasticity (the average Liquid Limit of the samples we tested was 55, with an average Plasticity Index of 33). Laboratory tests also indicate that the formational materials have a high expansion potential (an Expansion Index of 120 to 123), and are very corrosive with a severe soluble sulfate content. Our tests indicate that the Santiago Formation has an average in-situ dry density of about 105 lb/ft3, with an average moisture content of 21 percent. The corrected standard penetration test (SPT) blow counts (N60) within the formation generally ranged from 20 to 64 and averaged 46. This indicates that the claystone is typically very stiff to hard in consistency. Pocket Penetrometer readings and CPT interpretations indicate that the formation typically has an undrained strength well above 4,000 lb/ft2. Direct shear testing suggests that the formational materials also have a drained shear strength exceeding 23º with 200 lb/ft2 cohesion, as shown in Figure B-5.6. 3.2 Old Alluvium Quaternary-age alluvial sediments associated with the Agua Hedionda Creek and Letterbox Canyon drainages were encountered in most of the explorations conducted at the site (map symbol Qoa). Up to 65 feet of alluvium was encountered in the northwest corner of the site, with lesser alluvial depths to both the south and east. The Old Alluvium most commonly consists of sandy lean clay (CL) or clayey sand (SC). In several borings, the alluvium graded into clean sand (SP or SW) near the contact with the underlying Santiago Formation. The upper 10 to 15 of the alluvium was typically stiff in consistency, whereas the deeper clays were very stiff to hard. Laboratory tests indicate that the alluvium is moderately expansive (an Expansion Index ranging from 66 to 91), and very corrosive with a severe soluble sulfate content. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 10 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc The alluvium has an in-situ dry density ranging from about 105 to 125 lb/ft3, with an average dry density of 105 lb/ft3 and an average moisture content of 14 percent. The corrected standard penetration test (SPT) blow counts (N60) within the alluvium ranged from 9 to 64 and averaged 31. In general, the SPT and CPT data indicate that the upper 10 to 15 feet of alluvium may be moderately compressible under the new fill and foundation loads, whereas the deeper alluvial deposits appear to be older and better consolidated. An average shear wave velocity of 288 m/s was measured in the upper 47 feet of the soil profile in CPT-3 (see Figure A-13c). This shear wave velocity (VsD) was then extrapolated to a depth of 30 meters (Vs30) using a common formula (Vs30~[1.45–(0.015*D)]*VsD), where D is the depth measured in meters. The average shear wave velocity for the upper 30 meters (Vs30) estimated in this manner was 356 m/s (corresponding to a 2013 CBC Site Class D). 3.3 Fill Shallow undocumented fill (2 to 7 feet deep) was encountered in all of the borings. The fill generally appears to be similar to the underlying alluvium from which it was likely derived. The fill typically consists of clayey sand (SC) with lesser amounts of sandy lean clay (CL). Approximately 15 feet of fill was also encountered at the old home site in Boring B-5. This fill included some gravel and demolition debris. The fill stockpile recently placed in the northwest corner of the site is generally composed of silty sand (SM). The existing fill is loose to medium dense, and considered potentially compressible. 3.4 Groundwater Groundwater was encountered in CPT-1 and CPT-2 at depths ranging from about 34 to 36 feet below grade (or an elevation of about 49 feet MSL). This corresponds to an ultimate groundwater depth ranging from 50 to 65 feet below the planned building pad elevations shown in Figure 2D. It should be noted that groundwater levels may fluctuate over time throughout the site due to changes in the water surface elevation and flow rate within Agua Hedionda Creek, as well as variations in rainfall, irrigation, or site drainage conditions. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 11 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 4.0 GEOLOGIC HAZARDS The subject site is not located within an area previously known for significant geologic hazards. Potential geologic hazards will generally be the result of moderate ground shaking on relatively distant active faults (the Rose Canyon fault zone is located about 11 km west of the site). Each potential geologic hazard is discussed below. 4.1 Ground Rupture Ground rupture is the result of movement on an active fault reaching the surface. Known faults within 100 km of the site are shown in the Regional Fault Map, Figure 4. The site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone, and no evidence of active or potentially active faulting was found during our site investigation or literature review. Consequently, ground rupture is not considered a significant geologic hazard at the site. 4.2 Seismicity The site is located at latitude 33.1439° north and longitude 117.2865° west. The United States Geologic Survey has developed an interactive website that provides Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) probabilistic seismic analyses based on the site location and average shear wave velocity (USGS, 2009). An average shear wave velocity (Vs30) of 356 m/s was estimated from CPT-3, as discussed in Section 3.2. The peak ground accelerations (PGA) with a 2, 5 and 10 percent probability of being exceeded in a 50 year period are estimated at 0.45, 0.33g and 0.26g, respectively. These levels of risk are often referred to as the Maximum Considered, Upper Bound and Design Basis Earthquakes, respectively. By comparison, the design level PGA from the 2013 CBC Design Response Spectrum shown in Table 1 is 0.31g. 4.3 Liquefaction and Dynamic Settlement Liquefaction is a process in which soil grains in a saturated deposit lose contact due to earthquakes or other sources of ground shaking. Liquefiable soils typically consist of cohesionless sands and silts that are loose to medium dense, and saturated. To liquefy, these soils must be subjected to ground shaking of sufficient magnitude and duration. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 12 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc The alluvial soils are primarily clays, which are not considered susceptible to liquefaction. In addition, groundwater was only encountered in soundings CPT-1 and CPT-2, at depths of 34 to 36 feet below existing grades (more than 50 feet below proposed finish grades). The other borings and CPT soundings did not encounter groundwater. Therefore, if soil liquefaction were to occur during a large earthquake, the occurrence would be located deep below the ground surface and proposed improvements. Liquefaction at such depths would not be expected to produce surface manifestations (SCEC, 1999). Although liquefaction is not considered a significant hazard to the proposed improvements, dynamic settlement may still occur in areas where medium dense granular alluvial soils are subjected to earthquake shaking of sufficient magnitude and duration. Dynamic settlement analyses were conducted for the site using a design level PGA of 0.31g associated with the 2013 CBC Design Response Spectrum. The estimated dynamic settlements at the five CPT locations are presented in detail in the figures of Appendix C. The total dynamic settlement (including dry soil settlement above groundwater and liquefaction below) is estimated at less than 1 inch at the site. According to state guidelines, a differential settlement equal to one-half the anticipated total dynamic settlement may be conservatively assumed for structural design (SCEC, 1999). Therefore, we estimate that the dynamic differential settlement for the proposed structures will not exceed ½ inch in 40 feet. Dynamic differential settlements of this magnitude are not expected to result in significant damage to the proposed improvements. 4.4 Landslides and Lateral Spreads Regional geologic maps suggest the presence of an ancient landslide within the subdivision southeast of the subject site, as shown in Figure 3A. This area was previously graded, and fill slopes up to 40-feet in height were constructed over the mapped location of the landslide. No documents describing the as- graded conditions for the adjacent subdivision were found in our literature review. However, in accordance with the standards of engineering practice, measures should have been taken during mass grading of that subdivision to remove the landslide debris and stabilize the existing fill slopes. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 13 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc No indications of slope failure were observed in our geologic reconnaissance. Roughly 10 feet of new fill is proposed for Lots 1 through 3 along the eastern edge of the site. This new fill will ultimately buttress the existing fill slope in that area, increasing the overall slope stability. However, temporary 1:1 cut slopes up to about 20-feet high will be needed to complete the remedial earthwork and construct the proposed retaining walls along the southern and eastern portions of the site. Group Delta should observe the geology exposed in the temporary 1:1 cuts to confirm the anticipated geotechnical conditions. The Revised Grading Plan indicates that a 2:1 (horizontal to vertical) fill slope up to about 12-feet in height will separate the lower Lots 21 to 26 from the upper Lots 14 to 20 (see Figure 2D). Roughly 6-foot high 2:1 fill slopes will also separate Lots 1, 2 and 3. Fill slope inclinations of 1½:1 are proposed for other minor slopes (less than 2 feet high) which will separate several lots. Stability analyses were conducted using SLOPE/W with Spencer's Method of Slices, based on the geologic conditions observed in the explorations. Lower bound shear strengths were estimated for each geologic unit (see Appendix B). Our stability analyses indicate that the proposed 2:1 fill slopes will possess an adequate factor of safety against deep-seated static failure (FS>1.5), assuming that our remedial grading recommendations are implemented during construction. Our analyses also indicate that the 1:1 cut slopes will possess an adequate safety factor for a temporary condition (FS>1.2). The results of our slope stability analyses are presented in Appendix D. Seismic slope stability was also analyzed using simplified methods. For the seismic analyses, estimates of Modal Magnitude (M), Distance (r) and Maximum Horizontal Acceleration (MHA) were developed. The Significant Duration of Shaking (D5-95) and Mean Period of Input Acceleration (Tm) were estimated in general accordance with the referenced guidelines (SCEC, 2002). SEISMIC PARAMETER ASSUMED VALUES Magnitude (M) 7.2 (Rose Canyon) Distance (r) 11 km (Rose Canyon) Acceleration (MHA) 0.31g (Design Level PGA) Duration (D5-95) 17 seconds Mean Period (Tm) 0.5 seconds Shear Wave Velocity (vs) 356 m/s Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 14 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc The seismic stability analyses indicate that the proposed slopes will have yield accelerations (Ky) that exceed 0.24g. Given a peak ground acceleration of 0.31g, the seismic slope deformation is estimated at less than 1 inch. Seismic deformation of this magnitude is generally deemed tolerable. 4.5 Tsunamis, Seiches and Flooding The site is located about 2½ miles from the Pacific Ocean, as shown on the Site Location Map, Figure 1A. The proximity to the ocean suggests that the potential may exist for damage in the event of an earthquake induced tsunami. However, the existence of the offshore barrier islands, and the configuration of the continental shelf in San Diego County have historically provided relief from tsunamis. The five greatest tsunamis that occurred within the Pacific Ocean in the last 100 years did not significantly impact San Diego County. Studies have indicated that a 500-year tsunami within the Pacific Ocean may result in a water surface runup of about 11 feet above tidal elevations along the coast of Carlsbad (U.S. Army, 1974). Assuming a high tide of 9 feet at the time of the tsunami, the inundation zone is estimated to include areas with an elevation of about 20 feet or less. Available topographic data indicates that the subject site is located more than 80 feet above mean sea level. Given the elevation of the site, the potential for damage due to tsunamis is considered remote. The California Geologic Survey’s Tsunami Inundation Map for this area suggests that the water surface runup from a tsunami would not extend beyond the eastern end of the Agua Hedionda lagoon (see Figure 3D). The site is not located within a FEMA 100-year flood zone or a dam inundation zone, as shown in Figure 3C. The 100-year floodplain is shown in more detail on the Site Vicinity Plan, Figure 1B. The site is not located below any lakes or confined bodies of water. Consequently, the potential for earthquake induced flooding due to seiches or dam failures is considered low. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 15 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 5.0 CONCLUSIONS The proposed development appears feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the following recommendations are implemented. However, there are several geotechnical constraints which will impact site development. ● Many of the structures will be underlain by relatively deep alluvium. We have recommended that the upper 10 or 15 feet of alluvium be excavated and compacted, which should remove the more compressible soil. With the addition of the planned fills, most of the lots will ultimately be underlain by 20 to 30 feet of compacted fill. However, up to about 20 feet of old alluvium may be left in place beneath Lots 21 to 26. We recommend that construction of settlement sensitive surface improvements be delayed for at least 4 weeks after rough grading of the site is completed, in order to allow for settlement of the remaining alluvium. Settlement monuments should be installed during grading in Lots 21 and 26 in order to confirm that settlement is completed prior to construction. The remedial grading is summarized in Table 2. ● Several of the proposed structures along the southern edge of the site would be directly underlain by highly expansive claystone of the Santiago Formation. We do not recommend constructing the proposed improvements directly on the highly expansive clays. For Lots 4 through 11, we recommend that the cut portions of the building pads be over-excavated at least 4-feet below finish pad grade. The over-excavation should be backfilled with low expansion imported sand (EI<20). Preliminary post-tension (PT) slab design parameters are provided for these conditions in Section 6.4.3 (Category III). ● The remaining lots will be underlain by fill derived from the existing alluvium. Laboratory tests indicate that the alluvial soils at the site generally have a medium potential for expansion (an Expansion Index of 66 to 91). Preliminary PT slab design parameters are provided for moderately expansive (Category II) conditions in Section 6.4.2. As an alternative, the remaining lots may also be capped with 3-feet of low expansion sand (EI<20) to reduce the potential for heave and cracking to the proposed concrete sidewalks and driveways. Preliminary PT slab design parameters are also provided for Category I (low expansion) conditions in Section 6.4.1. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 16 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc ● The existing fill soil throughout the site is considered to be compressible, and should be excavated and replaced as compacted fill prior to site development. Existing fills include most of Parcel 2, as well as the new fill stockpile recently placed in the northwest corner of the site. Note that the new fill stockpile appears to primarily be composed of low expansion silty sand, and may be suitable for use as a select low expansion fill on the surface of the lots. ● The temporary 1:1 cut slopes that will be needed to complete the remedial earthwork along the eastern and southern edges of the site should be observed by Group Delta to verify the anticipated geologic conditions. If adverse geology is observed, additional remedial grading recommendations for a stabilization fill or buttress may be provided during grading. ● Laboratory tests indicate that the on-site soils present a severe potential for sulfate attack. The sulfate hazard is typically mitigated by the use of Type V cement for new on-grade concrete, with a maximum water to cement ratio of 0.45 and a minimum 28-day compressive strength of 4,500 psi. ● Laboratory tests indicate that the on-site soils are also very corrosive to metals. Typical corrosion control measures should be incorporated into the design, such as providing adequate concrete cover or protective coatings for steel reinforcement, and providing sacrificial anodes as needed for buried metal pipes. A corrosion consultant may be contacted for specific recommendations. ● Shallow groundwater was not encountered during our site investigation. Groundwater was only encountered in soundings CPT-1 and CPT-2 at an elevation of about 49 feet MSL. This corresponds to a groundwater depth of about 50 to 65 feet below planned finish grades. Groundwater seepage is not anticipated within the proposed remedial excavations. However, wet soils may be generated by the proposed remedial excavations that may require extra effort to dry back to a moisture content suitable for compaction. ● The potential for active faults, seismic settlement or floods to impact the site is remote. Other geologic hazards that may impact development include strong ground shaking from an earthquake on an active fault. This hazard may be mitigated by structural design in accordance with the applicable building code.

If these recommendations do not cover a specific feature of the project, please contact our office for amendments. 6.1 Plan Review We recommend that the foundation and grading plans be reviewed by Group Delta Consultants prior to construction. We anticipate that substantial changes in the development may occur from the preliminary design concepts used for our investigation. Such changes may require additional evaluation, which could result in modifications to the recommendations provided herein. 6.2 Excavation and Grading Observation Foundation and grading should be observed by Group Delta. During grading, Group Delta should provide observation and testing services continuously. Such observations are considered essential to identify field conditions that differ from those anticipated by this investigation, to adjust designs to the actual field conditions, and to determine that the grading is accomplished in general accordance with the recommendations presented in this report. Our recommendations are contingent upon Group Delta Consultants performing such services. Our personnel should perform sufficient testing of fill and backfill during grading and improvement operations to support our professional opinion as to compliance with the compaction recommendations. 6.3 Earthwork Grading and earthwork should be conducted in general accordance with the applicable local grading ordinance and the requirements of the current California Building Code. The following recommendations are provided regarding specific aspects of the proposed earthwork construction. These recommendations should be considered subject to revision based on the conditions observed by our personnel during grading. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 18 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.3.1 Site Preparation: General site preparation should begin with the removal of the deleterious materials from the site. Deleterious materials include existing structures, improvements, trees, vegetation, trash, contaminated soil and demolition debris. Existing subsurface utilities that are to be abandoned should be removed and the excavations backfilled and compacted as described in Section 6.3.4. Alternatively, abandoned pipes may be grouted with a two-sack sand- cement slurry under the observation of Group Delta Consultants. 6.3.2 Compressible Soils: The undocumented fill, stockpiled fill and surficial deposits of alluvium throughout the site are considered poorly consolidated and compressible. By comparison, the deeper deposits of Old Alluvium and the Santiago Formation are hard, and are considered much less susceptible to settlement under the new fill loads. Compressible fill and the surficial alluvial soils should be excavated and replaced as compacted fill prior to development. In general, over- excavation depths are anticipated to vary from about 10 to 15 feet across the site, as summarized in Table 2. In all areas of proposed fill placement or surface improvements such as pavements, sidewalks, exterior flatwork and buildings, the compressible soils should be excavated under our geologic observation. The actual remedial excavation depths may vary depending upon the conditions observed by our geologist during grading. Once the compressible soils have been excavated, the bottom of the excavation should be scarified, brought to slightly above optimum moisture content, and then compacted as described in Section 6.3.4. The stockpiled soils may then be replaced as a uniformly compacted fill to the plan finish grades. 6.3.3 Building Areas: In addition to remedial grading to remove and compact compressible soils throughout the building and improvement areas, many of the residential lots will be underlain by transitions between fill and formational materials. Remedial grading should be conducted so that the building foundations do not cross cut/fill transitions, due to the potential for adverse differential movement. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 19 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc The surficial soils throughout the site are moderate to highly expansive (see Figure B-2). The use of post-tension slab foundations will help mitigate the potential for damage to the residential structures associated with moderate soil heave. However, we do not recommend constructing buildings directly on the highly expansive fat claystone of the Santiago Formation. Our site investigation indicates that Lots 4 through 11 as shown on the Revised Grading Plan may be underlain directly by the highly expansive claystone, or a transition between claystone and fill (these are the Category III lots described in Section 6.4). The remaining lots will be underlain by relatively deep fill. For Lots 4 through 11 (Category III), the building pads should be over- excavated to a minimum depth of 4-feet below finish pad grade in order to mitigate the presence of both the cut/fill transitions and the highly expansive fat claystone. The highly expansive clay generated by this excavation may be buried in the deeper fills in the bio-retention basin along the northern edge of the site, or removed from the property. The over-excavated areas should extend at least 5 feet horizontally beyond the heave sensitive improvements. The over-excavated areas should then be brought back to plan grades with a uniformly compacted low expansion (EI<20) imported material, as discussed in Section 6.3.4. The alluvium is relatively deep throughout the remaining building pad areas (Lots 1 to 3, and 12 through 26). The removal and compaction of the compressible surficial soils as recommended in Section 6.3.2 is anticipated to result in a relatively uniform depth of moderately expansive soil beneath these 18 lots. Additional remedial grading is not necessary (these are Category II Lots). A summary of the anticipated remedial over-excavation depths for each lot is presented in Table 2. Although post-tension slab foundations may be used to mitigate the potential for damage to buildings associated with moderately expansive soil heave (Category II), the surrounding sidewalks and driveways may still heave and crack over time. In order to reduce the potential for such distress, these residential lots may be capped with three feet of low expansion imported soil (Category I lots), at Lennar’s discretion. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 20 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.3.4 Fill Compaction: All fill and backfill should be placed at slightly above optimum moisture content using equipment that is capable of producing a uniformly compacted product. The minimum recommended relative compaction is 90 percent of the maximum dry density based on ASTM D1557. Sufficient observation and testing should be performed by Group Delta so that an opinion can be rendered as to the compaction achieved. Rocks or concrete fragments greater than 6 inches in dimension should not be used in structural fill. Imported fill sources should be observed prior to hauling onto the site to determine the suitability for use. Imported fill materials should consist of granular soil with less than 35 percent passing the No. 200 sieve based on ASTM C136 and an Expansion Index less than 20 based on ASTM D4829. Samples of the proposed import should be tested by Group Delta in order to evaluate the suitability of these soils for their proposed use. During grading operations, soil types may be encountered by the contractor that do not appear to conform to those discussed within this report. Group Delta should be notified in order to evaluate the suitability of these soils for their proposed use. 6.3.5 Subgrade Stabilization: All excavations should be firm and unyielding prior to placing fill. In areas of yielding or “pumping” subgrade, a layer of geogrid such as Tensar BX-1200 or Terragrid RX1200 may be placed directly on the excavation bottom. The geogrid should then be covered with at least 12 inches of minus ¾-inch aggregate base. Once the excavation is firm enough to attain the required compaction within the base, the remainder of the excavation may be backfilled using either compacted soil or aggregate base. 6.3.6 Surface Drainage: Foundation and slab performance depends greatly on how well surface runoff drains from the site. This is true both during construction and over the entire life of the structures. The ground surface should be graded so that water flows away from structures without ponding. Consideration should also be given to providing a continuous subdrain along the toe of the southern fill slope in order to intercept nuisance seepage from the back lots. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 21 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.3.7 Slope Stability: Various new cut and fill slopes will be constructed throughout the site. We recommend that permanent fill slopes up to 20-feet high be inclined no steeper than 2:1 (horizontal to vertical). Minor fill slopes up to 2-feet high may be inclined at 1½:1. Our analyses indicate that the proposed slopes will have a Safety Factor above 1.5 with respect to deep-seated failure (see Appendix D). All slopes may be susceptible to surficial slope instability and erosion given substantial wetting of the slope face. Surficial slope stability may be enhanced by providing proper site drainage. The site should be graded so that water from the surrounding areas is not able to flow over the top of slopes. Diversion structures should be provided where necessary. Slopes should be planted with vegetation that will increase the surficial stability. Ice plant is generally not recommended. Vegetation should include woody plants, along with ground cover. Irrigation should be limited to the minimum needed to support the landscaping. Plants may be adapted for growth in semi-arid climates with little or no irrigation. A landscape architect should be consulted to develop a planting palate suitable for stabilization. Where fill is to be placed on surfaces inclined steeper than 5:1 (such as up against existing slopes), these surfaces should be benched to provide a relatively level surface for fill placement. The benches should extend through the compressible materials to expose competent material as evaluated by Group Delta. The bench width should generally be adequate to expose 3 to 5 feet of competent material in the vertical wall of the bench. The exposed bench bottoms should be scarified and compacted prior to placing compacted fills. 6.3.8 Temporary Excavations: Temporary excavations will be needed at the site in order to accomplish the planned remedial excavations. All excavations should conform to Cal-OSHA guidelines. Temporary excavations should be inclined no steeper than 1:1 (horizontal to vertical) for heights up to 20 feet. Deeper excavations, or any excavations that encounter seepage should be evaluated by Group Delta Consultants on a case-by-case basis, or shored. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 22 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.3.9 Bulk/Shrink Characteristics: The in-situ density of the alluvium varies from about 105 to 125 lb/ft3, as shown in Appendix A. The maximum density of the fill derived from the alluvium is estimated at 125 to 126 lb/ft3, as shown in Figure B-4. Assuming that the fills are compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum density as recommended, we estimate that the alluvium will shrink up 10 percent when excavated and placed as fill (5 percent average). Shrinkage may vary considerably based on variations in the alluvium density. 6.4 Preliminary Foundation Recommendations The following recommendations are considered appropriate for post-tensioned slab foundations that bear entirely on compacted fill placed in accordance with our recommendations. These foundation recommendations should be considered preliminary, and subject to revision based on the conditions encountered during grading. The ultimate foundation design should incorporate the geotechnical design parameters provided in the as-graded geotechnical report. The following recommendations are considered generally consistent with methods typically used in southern California. Other alternatives may be available. They are only minimum criteria and should not be considered a structural design, or to preclude more restrictive criteria of governing agencies or the structural engineer. 6.4.1 Post-Tension Slabs (Category I): Category I foundation design conditions are applicable to lots with a low expansion potential. For Category I conditions to apply, the compressible and moderately expansive surficial soils will first need to be excavated and replaced as compacted fill, as described in Section 6.3.2. In addition, the Category I lots will also need to be capped with at least three feet of low expansion imported soil (EI<20), as discussed in Section 6.3.3. Category I conditions may apply to Lots 1 to 3, and 12 through 26. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 23 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc The following design parameters were developed in general accordance with the procedures described in the referenced guidelines (PTI, 2007). Post-tension slab design may be conducted by the structural engineer using the following preliminary geotechnical parameters. Moisture Variation, em: Center Lift: 9.0 feet Edge Lift: 5.0 feet Differential Swell, ym: Center Lift: 0.5 inches Edge Lift: 0.7 inches Differential Settlement: ¾ inch in 40 feet Allowable Bearing: 2,000 psf at slab subgrade 6.4.2 Post Tensioned Slabs (Category II): Category II lots will apply to areas underlain by moderately expansive fill soil. Category II conditions are anticipated for Lots 1 to 3, and 12 through 26 (unless selective grading is chosen by the developer to cap these lots with 3-feet of low expansion soil and produce Category I conditions). The following preliminary foundation design parameters were also developed in general accordance with the 2013 CBC and the procedures described in the referenced guidelines (PTI, 2007). Moisture Variation, em: Center Lift: 9.0 feet Edge Lift: 4.6 feet Differential Swell, ym: Center Lift: 1.2 inches Edge Lift: 1.8 inches Differential Settlement: ¾ inch in 40 feet Allowable Bearing: 2,000 psf at slab subgrade Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 24 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.4.3 Post Tensioned Slabs (Category III): Lots 4 through 11 will be underlain by highly expansive claystone of the Santiago Formation (Category III). As described in Section 6.3.3, we recommend that these lots be over-excavated at least 4-feet below finish grade, and capped with 4 or more feet of low expansion import (EI<20). The following preliminary design parameters would apply to these conditions. These parameters were also developed in general accordance with the procedures described in the referenced guidelines (PTI, 2007). Moisture Variation, em: Center Lift: 9.0 feet Edge Lift: 4.8 feet Differential Swell, ym: Center Lift: 1.0 inches Edge Lift: 1.5 inches Differential Settlement: ¾ inch in 40 feet Allowable Bearing: 2,000 psf at slab subgrade 6.4.4 Settlement: Provided that remedial grading is conducted within the building areas as recommended in Section 6.3, total and differential settlement of the proposed structures is not expected to exceed one inch and ¾-inch in 40 feet, respectively. In addition, dynamic settlement of up to ½-inch in 40 feet may occur (see Section 4.3). 6.4.5 Lateral Resistance: Lateral loads against the structures may be resisted by friction between the bottoms of footings and slabs and the soil, as well as passive pressure from the portion of vertical foundation members embedded into compacted fill. A coefficient of friction of 0.25 and a passive pressure of 250 psf per foot of depth may be used. 6.4.6 Slope Setback: As a minimum, all foundations should be setback from any descending slope at least 10 feet. The setback should be measured horizontally from the outside bottom edge of the footing to the slope face. The horizontal setback can be reduced by deepening the foundation to achieve the recommended setback distance projected from the footing bottom to the face of the slope. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 25 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc It should be recognized that the outer few feet of all slopes are susceptible to gradual down-slope movements due to slope creep. This will affect hardscape such as concrete slabs. We recommend that settlement sensitive structures not be constructed within 5 feet of the slope top without specific review by Group Delta Consultants. 6.4.7 Seismic Design: The proposed structures should be designed in general accordance with the seismic provisions of the 2013 California Building Code (CBC) for Seismic Zone 4. An average shear wave velocity (Vsd) of 944 ft/s was measured within the upper 47 feet of the soil profile in CPT-3, as described in Appendix A. This corresponds to an estimated value of 1,168 ft/s (356 m/s) for the upper 100 feet (Vs30), as described previously. Therefore, it is our opinion that a 2013 CBC Site Class D is most applicable to the general site conditions. The USGS mapped spectral ordinates SS and S1 equal 1.070 and 0.413, respectively. For Site Class D, the acceleration and velocity coefficients Fa and Fv equal 1.072 and 1.586, respectively. The spectral design parameters SDS and SD1 equal 0.765 and 0.437. The peak ground acceleration from the design spectrum may be taken as 40 percent of SDS or 0.31g. The recommended 2013 CBC Design Spectrum for Site Class D is shown in the attached Table 1. 6.5 On-Grade Slabs On-grade slabs should be designed by the project structural engineer. Building slabs should be at least 5½ inches thick, and should be reinforced with at least No. 3 bars on 18-inch centers, each way. 6.5.1 Moisture Protection for Slabs: Concrete slabs constructed on grade ultimately cause the moisture content to rise in the underlying soil. This results from continued capillary rise and the termination of normal evapotranspiration. Because normal concrete is permeable, the moisture will eventually penetrate the slab. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 26 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc Excessive moisture may cause mildewed carpets, lifting or discoloration of floor tiles, or similar problems. To decrease the likelihood of problems related to damp slabs, suitable moisture protection measures should be used where moisture sensitive floor coverings, moisture sensitive equipment, or other factors warrant. The most common moisture barriers in southern California consist of two inches of clean sand covered by 'visqueen' plastic sheeting. Two inches of sand are placed over the plastic to decrease concrete curing problems. It has been our experience that such systems will transmit approximately 6 to 12 pounds of moisture per 1000 square feet per day. The architect should review the estimated moisture transmission rates, since these values may be excessive for some applications, such as sheet vinyl, wood flooring, vinyl tiles, or carpeting with impermeable backings that use water soluble adhesives. Sheet vinyl may develop discoloration or adhesive degradation due to excessive moisture. Wood flooring may swell and dome if exposed to excessive moisture. The architect should specify an appropriate moisture barrier based on the allowable moisture transmission rate for the flooring. This may require a “vapor barrier” rather than a “vapor retarder”. The American Concrete Institute provides detailed recommendations for moisture protection systems (ACI 302.1R-04). ACI defines a “vapor retarder” as having a minimum thickness of 10-mil, and a water transmission rate of less than 0.3 perms when tested per ASTM E96. ACI defines a “vapor barrier” as having a water transmission rate of 0.01 perms or less (such as a 15 mil StegoWrap). The vapor membrane should be constructed in accordance with ASTM E1643 and E1745 guidelines. All laps or seams should be overlapped at least 6 inches or per the manufacturer recommendations. Joints and penetrations should be sealed with pressure sensitive tape, or the manufacturer’s adhesive. The vapor membrane should be protected from puncture, and repaired per the manufacturer’s recommendations if damaged. The architect should review ACI 302.1R-04 along with the moisture requirements of the proposed flooring system, and incorporate an appropriate level of moisture protection into the design. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 27 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc The vapor membrane is often placed over 4 inches of granular material. The materials should be a clean, fine graded sandy soil with roughly 10 to 30 percent passing the No. 100 sieve. The sand should not be contaminated with clay, silt, or organic material. The sand should be proof-rolled prior to placing the vapor membrane. Based on current ACI recommendations, concrete should be placed directly over the vapor membrane. The common practice of placing sand over the vapor membrane may increase moisture transmission through the slab, because it provides a reservoir for bleed water from the concrete to collect. The sand placed over the vapor membrane may also move prior to concrete placement, resulting in an irregular slab thickness. When placing concrete directly on an impervious membrane, it should be noted that finishing delays may occur. Care should be taken to assure that a low water to cement ratio is used and that the concrete is moist cured in accordance with ACI guidelines. 6.5.2 Exterior Slabs: Exterior slabs and sidewalks should be at least 4 inches thick. Crack control joints should be placed on a maximum spacing of 10 foot centers, each way, for slabs, and on 5 foot centers for sidewalks. The potential for differential movements across the control joints may be reduced by using steel reinforcement. Typical reinforcement for exterior slabs would consist of 6x6 W2.9/W2.9 welded wire fabric placed securely at mid-height of the slab. 6.5.3 Expansive Soils: The near surface soils observed during our field investigation primarily consisted of sandy lean or fat clay (CL and CH) and clayey sand (SC) with a medium to high expansion potential based on common criteria. The Expansion Index (EI) test results are shown in Figure B-2. In general, the alluvium has a medium expansion potential, whereas the Santiago Formation is highly expansive. Due to the presence of expansive soils throughout the site, differential heave of exterior flatwork and sidewalks should be anticipated. One inch of differential heave is not considered unusual, and more may occur where highly expansive soils are present. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 28 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc Post-tension slab foundations will be used to help reduce the potential for distress to new buildings founded over the moderately expansive clays, as discussed in Section 6.4. In order to reduce the potential for differential heave and cracking of other concrete improvements such as driveways and sidewalks, the upper two feet of on-site clayey fill may be replaced with a low expansion sand (EI<20), as a minimum. 6.5.4 Reactive Soils: In order to assess the sulfate exposure of concrete in contact with the site soils, samples were tested for water soluble sulfate content (see Figure B-3). Based on these test results, some of the on-site soils appear to have a severe potential for sulfate attack based on commonly accepted criteria. It should be noted that the use of fertilizer or the presence of sulfate in the irrigation water may cause the sulfate content in the soil to increase over time. The sulfate hazard is typically mitigated by the use of Type V cement for new concrete structures, with a maximum water to cement ratio of 0.45 and a minimum 28-day compressive strength of 4,500 psi. In order to assess the reactivity of the site soils with respect to buried metals, the pH, resistivity and soluble chloride contents of selected soil samples were also determined. These test results are also shown in Figure B-3. The tests suggest that the on-site soils are very corrosive to buried metals. Typical corrosion control measures should be incorporated in the project design. These measures include providing the minimum clearances between reinforcing steel and soil as recommended in the building code, and providing sacrificial anodes (where needed) for buried metal pipes or structures. A corrosion consultant may be contacted for more specific recommendations. 6.6 Earth-Retaining Structures Backfilling retaining walls with expansive soil can increase lateral pressures well beyond normal active pressures. We recommend that retaining walls be backfilled with soil that has an Expansion Index of 20 or less. The on-site soils do not meet this criterion. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 29 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc Retaining wall backfill should be compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction based on ASTM D1557. Backfill should not be placed until walls have achieved adequate strength. Heavy compaction equipment, which could cause distress to the walls, should not be used. For general retaining wall design, an allowable bearing capacity of 2,000 lbs/ft2, a coefficient of friction of 0.25, and a passive pressure of 250 psf per foot of depth is recommended. Cantilever retaining walls with level granular (imported) backfill may be designed using an active earth pressure approximated by an equivalent fluid pressure of 35 lbs/ft3. The active pressure should be used for walls free to yield at the top at least ½ percent of the wall height. Walls that are restrained so that such movement is not permitted, or walls with 2:1 sloping backfill should be designed for an at-rest earth pressure approximated by an equivalent fluid pressure of 55 lbs/ft3. These pressures do not include seepage forces or surcharge loads. Surcharges within a 1:1 plane extending back and up from the base of the wall should be accounted for in the wall design. All retaining walls should contain adequate backdrains to relieve hydrostatic pressures. Typical wall drain alternatives are presented in Figure 5. 6.7 Preliminary Pavement Design Alternatives are provided below for asphalt concrete and Portland cement concrete pavements. In each case, we recommend that the upper 12 inches of pavement subgrade be scarified immediately prior to constructing the pavement section, brought to about optimum moisture, and compacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D1557. Aggregate base should also be compacted to 95 percent of the maximum dry density. Aggregate base should conform to the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (SSPWC), Section 200-2. Asphalt concrete should conform to Section 400-4 of the SSPWC and should be compacted to at least 95 percent relative compaction based on the Hveem unit weight. R-Value tests were conducted on bulk samples of the on-site soil collected during the site investigation, in general accordance with CTM 301. The test results are presented in Figures B-6.1 through B-6.4 of Appendix B. The tests indicated subgrade R-Values ranging from 14 to 19. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 30 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.7.1 Asphalt Concrete: Asphalt concrete pavement design was conducted in general accordance with the Caltrans Design Method (Topic 608.4). Traffic Indices of 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0 were assumed for preliminary design purposes. The project civil engineer should review the assumed traffic levels to determine if and where they are appropriate. Based on the minimum R-Value of 14 determined by our laboratory tests, the following pavement sections are recommended. PAVEMENT TYPE TRAFFIC INDEX ASPHALT SECTION BASE SECTION Passenger Car Areas 5.0 3 Inches 8 Inches Truck Traffic Areas 6.0 4 Inches 10 Inches Heavy Traffic Areas 7.0 4 Inches 14 Inches 6.7.2 Portland Cement Concrete: Concrete pavement design was conducted in general accordance with the simplified design procedure of the Portland Cement Association. This methodology is based on a 20-year design life. For design, it was assumed that aggregate interlock would be used for load transfer across control joints. The subgrade materials were assumed to provide “low” subgrade support based on the minimum R-Value of 14. Based on these assumptions, and using the same traffic indices presented previously, we recommend that the PCC pavement sections at the site consist of at least 6 inches of concrete placed over 6 inches of compacted aggregate base. For heavy truck traffic areas, 7 inches of concrete is recommended over 6 inches of aggregate base. Crack control joints should be constructed for all PCC pavements on a maximum spacing of 10 feet, each way. Concentrated truck traffic areas, such as trash truck aprons and loading docks, should be reinforced with number 4 bars on 18-inch centers, each way. Geotechnical Investigation GDC Project No. SD365 Tabata Development March 4, 2014 Lennar Homes Page 31 N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc 6.8 Pipelines It is our understanding that the development may include a variety of pipelines such as water, storm drain and sewer. Geotechnical aspects of pipeline design include lateral earth pressures for thrust blocks, modulus of soil reaction, and pipe bedding. Each of these parameters is discussed separately below. 6.8.1 Thrust Blocks: Lateral resistance for thrust blocks may be determined by a passive pressure value of 250 lbs/ft2 per foot of embedment, assuming a triangular distribution. This value may be used for thrust blocks embedded into fill soils as well as Old Alluvium. 6.8.2 Modulus of Soil Reaction: The modulus of soil reaction (E’) is used to characterize the stiffness of soil backfill placed along the sides of buried flexible pipelines. For the purpose of evaluating deflection due to the load associated with trench backfill over the pipe, a value of 1,500 lbs/in2 is recommended for the general site conditions, assuming granular bedding material is placed around the pipe. 6.8.3 Pipe Bedding: Typical pipe bedding as specified in the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction may be used. As a minimum, we recommend that pipes be supported on at least 4 inches of granular bedding material such as minus 3/4-inch crushed rock or disintegrated granite. Where pipeline or trench excavations exceed a 15 percent gradient, we do not recommend that open graded rock be used for bedding or backfill because of the potential for piping and internal erosion. For sloping utilities, we recommend that coarse sand or sand-cement slurry be used for the bedding and pipe zone. 7.0 LIMITATIONS This report was prepared using the degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised, under similar circumstances, by reputable geotechnical consultants practicing in this or similar localities.

Geomorphic evidence for Holocene faulting includes sag ponds, scarps showing little erosion, or the following features in Holocene age deposits: offset stream courses, linear scarps, shutter ridges, and triangular faceted spurs. Recency of faulting offshore is based on the interpreted age of the youngest strata displaced by faulting. Late Quaternary fault displacement (during past 700,000 years). Geomorphic evidence similar to that described for Holocene faults except features are less distinct. Faulting may be younger, but lack of younger overlying deposits precludes more accurate age classification. Quaternary fault (age undifferentiated). Most faults of this category show evidence of displacement sometime during the past 1.6 million years; possible exceptions are faults that displace rocks of undifferentiated Plio-Pleistocene age. See Bulletin 201, Appendix D for source data. Late Cenozoic faults within the Sierra Nevada including, but not restricted to, the Foothills fault system. Faults show stratigraphic and/or geomorphic evidence for displacement of late Miocene and Pliocene deposits. By analogy, late Cenozoic faults in this system that have been investigated in detail may have been active in Quaternary time (Data from PG&.E, l993.) Pre-Quaternary fault (older than 1.6 million years) or fault without recognized Quaternary displacement. Some faults are shown in this category because the source of mapping used was of reconnaissance nature, or was not done with the object of dating fault displacements. Faults in this category are not necessarily inactive. 4 REGIONAL FAULT MAP 9245 ACTIVITY ROAD, SUITE 103 SAN DIEGO, CA 92126 (858) 536-1000 100 k m SITE 13-0339 SD365 NO SCALE Tabata Development Lennar Homes PROJECT NAME PROJECT NUMBER DOCUMENT NUMBER FIGURE NUMBER GROUP DELTA CONSULTANTS, INC.

ENGINEERS AND GEOLOGISTSGROUP DELTA CONSULTANTS APPENDIX A FIELD EXPLORATION N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc APPENDIX A FIELD EXPLORATION Field exploration included a visual and geologic reconnaissance of the site, the drilling of 10 exploratory borings, and the advancement of 5 cone penetrometer test (CPT) soundings. The subsurface investigation was conducted by Group Delta Consultants personnel between January 30th and February 5th, 2014. The maximum depth of exploration was about 65 feet. The approximate locations of the borings and CPT soundings conducted at the site are shown on the Exploration Plan. Logs describing the subsurface conditions encountered in the borings and CPT soundings are shown in Figures A-1 through A-15, immediately following the Boring Record Legends. The 10 exploratory borings were drilled by Pacific Drilling using a 6-inch diameter, continuous flight, hollow stem, truck mounted drill rig. Drive samples were collected from the borings using an automatic hammer with an Energy Transfer Ratio (ETR) of roughly 87 percent. Disturbed samples were collected from the borings using a 2- inch outside diameter Standard Penetration Test (SPT) sampler. Less disturbed samples were collected using a 3-inch outside diameter ring lined sampler (a modified California sampler). These samples were sealed in plastic bags, labeled, and returned to the laboratory for testing. For each sample, the number of blows needed to drive the sampler 12 inches was recorded on the attached logs. The field blow counts (N) were normalized to approximate the standard 60 percent ETR as shown on the logs (N60). Bulk samples were collected from the borings at selected intervals for testing. The borings logs are presented in Figures A-1 through A-10. The five cone penetrometer (CPT) soundings were advanced by Kehoe Testing and Engineering in general accordance with ASTM D5778. The CPT soundings were advanced using a 30-ton truck mounted rig with a 15 cm2 cone. Integrated electronic circuitry was used to measure the tip resistance (Qc) and skin friction (Fs) at 2.5 cm (1 inch) intervals while the CPT was advanced into the soil with hydraulic down pressure. A piezometer located behind the cone tip also measured transient pore pressure (u). The CPT data is presented in Figures A-11 through A-15. N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc APPENDIX A FIELD EXPLORATION (Continued) The first figure for each CPT sounding presents the raw CPT data (Figures A-11a through A-15a). The interpreted soil profile is shown in a color-coded log in Figures A-11b through A-15b. The soil interpretations are a function of the normalized cone resistance and friction ratio (Robertson, 1988, 1990). The interpreted Soil Behavior Type Index (Ic), and the estimated undrained shear strength (Su) for each soil profile are also shown in Figures A-11c through A-15c. At the location of the third CPT sounding (CPT-3), shear wave velocity measurements were taken at 5 foot depth intervals using an air actuated hammer located inside the front jack of the CPT rig. The interval shear wave velocities are shown in Figure A- 13c. The average shear wave velocity for the upper 46.7 feet (Vsd) at the location of sounding CPT-3 was measured as 944 ft/s (288 m/s). Note that the CPT was unable to advance through the dense materials below that depth. However, a common extrapolation method would estimate an average shear wave velocity in the upper 100 feet (Vs30) of 356 m/s based on the following formula (Boore, 2004): Vs30 ~ [1.45 – (0.015*d)] * Vsd ~ [1.45 – (0.015*46.7/3.28)] * 288 m/s ~ 356 m/s. The boring and CPT locations were determined by visually estimating, pacing and taping distances from landmarks shown on the Exploration Plan. The locations shown should not be considered more accurate than is implied by the method of measurement used and the scale of the map. The lines designating the interface between differing soil materials on the logs may be abrupt or gradational. Further, soil conditions at locations between the excavations may be substantially different from those at the specific locations we explored. It should be noted that the passage of time may also result in changes in the soil conditions reported in the logs.

No warranty, express or implied, is made as to the correctness or serviceability of the test results, or the conclusions derived from these tests. Where a specific laboratory test method has been referenced, such as ASTM or Caltrans, the reference only applies to the specified laboratory test method, which has been used only as a guidance document for the general performance of the test and not as a “Test Standard”. A brief description of the various tests performed for this project follows. Classification: Soils were classified visually according to the Unified Soil Classification System as established by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Visual classification was supplemented by laboratory testing and classification using ASTM D2487. The soil classifications are shown on the boring logs in Appendix A. Particle Size Analysis: Particle size analyses were performed in general accordance with ASTM D422, and were used to supplement visual soil classifications. The test results are summarized in Figures B-1.1 through B-1.12. Atterberg Limits: ASTM D4318 was also used to determine the liquid limit and plasticity index of selected soil samples. The Atterberg Limits were used to refine the soil classifications as shown in Figures B-1.1 through B-1.12. Expansion Index: The expansion potential of selected soil samples was estimated in general accordance with the laboratory procedures outlined in ASTM test method D4829. The test results are summarized in Figure B-2. Figure B-2 also presents common criteria for evaluating the expansion potential based on the expansion index. Sulfate Content: To assess the potential for reactivity with concrete, selected soil samples were tested for water soluble sulfate. The sulfate was extracted from the soil under vacuum using a 10:1 (water to dry soil) dilution ratio. The extracted solution was tested for water soluble sulfate in general accordance with ASTM D516. The test results are presented in Figure B-3. Figure B-3 also presents common criteria for evaluating soluble sulfate content. N:\Projects\SD\SD365 Lennar, Tabata Development\13-0339\13-0339.doc APPENDIX B LABORATORY TESTING (Continued) pH and Resistivity: To assess the potential for reactivity with metal, selected samples were tested for pH and resistivity using Caltrans method 643. The test results are also shown in Figure B-3. Chloride Content: Soil samples were also tested for water soluble chloride. The chloride was extracted from the soil under vacuum using a 10:1 (water to dry soil) dilution ratio. The extracted solution was then tested for water soluble chloride using a calibrated ion specific electronic probe. The test results are shown in Figure B-3. Maximum Density/Optimum Moisture: The maximum density and optimum moisture content of selected soil samples were determined using ASTM D1557 (modified Proctor). The results were corrected for over-size material using ASTM D4718 as a guideline. The test results are summarized in Figure B-4. Direct Shear: The shear strengths of selected samples of the on-site soils were assessed using direct shear testing performed in general accordance with ASTM D3080. These test results are shown in Figures B-5.1 through B-5.5. The shear test results are summarized in Figure B-5.6. R-Value: R-Value tests were performed on a sample of the on-site soils in general accordance with CTM 301. The results are shown in Figures B-6.1 through B-6.4.

Note that the CPT soundings were conducted within the deepest deposits of the alluvium along the northern edge of the site. The analyses were based on the simplified procedures originally developed by Seed and Idriss, and were conducted in general accordance with the recommended procedures for implementation of DMG special publication 117 (SCEC, 1999). The tip resistance (Qc) was normalized for overburden pressure and corrected for fines content using the procedures described in the referenced document (Youd et al., 2001). The resulting “Normalized Clean Sand Equivalent Tip Resistance” is designated by the symbol Qc1N(CS) in the following figures. Note that the CPT fines correction was based on the Soil Behavior Type Index (Ic). For each sounding, both the Normalized Tip Resistance and Soil Behavior Type Index are plotted as a function of depth for the upper 50 feet of the soil profile. The liquefaction analyses are shown in Figures C-1 through C-5. The central chart for each CPT sounding shows the estimated seismic settlement due to a Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) of 0.31g from the 2013 CBC Design Spectrum provided in Table 1. The groundwater table was assumed to be at a depth of 35 feet below grade for our analyses, based on the conditions encountered in CPT-1 and CPT-2. Fine-grained soils with an Ic value greater than 2.6 were considered to be too clayey to liquefy. Similarly, granular soils with a normalized clean sand equivalent tip resistance (Qc1N(CS)) greater than 160 were considered too dense to liquefy. Only those soil zones that were both loose enough and sandy enough to liquefy contributed to the estimated post-liquefaction settlement. Seismic settlement was also estimated for dry soils above the groundwater table using the referenced procedure (Pradel, 1998). Our dynamic settlement analyses suggest that the deeper alluvial deposits along the northern edge of the site may experience total dynamic settlements of up to about 1 inch due to the Design Basis earthquake. According to state guidelines, a differential settlement equal to about one-half of the anticipated total liquefaction settlement may be conservatively assumed for structural design (SCEC, 1999). Consequently, we estimate that differential seismic settlement in some portions of the site may approach ½ inch in 40 feet. Seismic settlement of this magnitude is generally deemed tolerable for structures founded on post-tension slabs.

Spencer's Method of Slices was used for all of the analyses. Spencer’s method satisfies both force and moment equilibrium. All of the critical failure surfaces were optimized. The geology of each section was characterized using the general geotechnical conditions encountered in nearby subsurface explorations, as well as our previous experience with similar conditions. Our slope stability analyses for Cross Sections A-A’ through D-D’ are summarized in Figures D-1 through D-4, respectively. Laboratory tests were used to approximate the lower bound shear strengths of the various geologic materials encountered at the site. Direct shear tests were conducted on relatively undisturbed samples of the on-site soils in general accordance with ASTM D3080. The test results were summarized in Appendix B (see Figure B-5.6). Based on these test results and our experience with similar soils, the Santiago Formation and Old Alluvium were both estimated to have shear strengths that generally exceed 23° with 200 lb/ft2 cohesion. A shear strength of 34° with 100 lb/ft2 was assumed for the imported select fill soil. The existing compacted fill within the slope along the southern and eastern edges of the property was assumed to have a shear strength exceeding 30° with 200 lb/ft2 for the stability analyses. Three cases were evaluated for each cross section: temporary, static and seismic stability. Our temporary stability analyses (Case 1) indicate that the temporary 1:1 cut slopes that will be needed to complete the recommended remedial earthwork and construct the proposed retaining walls will possess an adequate factor of safety for a temporary sloping condition (FS>1.2) as shown in Figures D-1.1 through D-3.1. Our static stability analyses (Case 2) indicate that the proposed 2:1 slopes and retaining walls will possess an adequate factor of safety against long-term deep-seated failure (FS>1.5) as shown in Figures D-1.2 through D-3.2. Our seismic stability analyses (Case 3) indicate that the proposed slopes may experience up to about 1 inch of lateral deformation given the design level peak ground acceleration of 0.31g presented in Table 1. Seismic slope deformations of this magnitude would generally be considered tolerable. The seismic stability analyses are summarized in Figures D- 1.3 through D-3.3.

(Group Delta) is pleased to present the results of a review of existing geotechnical information ("paper study") performed for the proposed residential development located on an undeveloped parcel southwest of El Camino Real between Camino Hills Drive and Bryant Drive in the City of Carlsbad, California (see Figures lA through IF). Lennar is considering purchasing and developing the property. Based on our review of existing information, no adverse site or geologic conditions that would preclude development of the site were identified, provided that appropriate geotechnical recommendations are incorporated in the design and construction. Purpose The purpose of our study was to review available information and provide geotechnical input to Lennar as part of their due diligence review for purchase of the property. A geotechnical investigation and report and grading plan prepared by others were provided to Lennar by the seller. These documents were the primary focus of Group Delta's geotechnical review. Pertinent Investigations and Reports The following geotechnical reports provided by the seller were reviewed: • Vinje & Middleton Engineering, Inc., December 13, 2011, "Geotechnical Plan Revieiu Update, Proposed 26-Lot (Tabata 10) Subdivision, Camino Hills Drive, Carlsbad, (A.P.li.'S 212-050-32 & -33)P Job #11-210-P, Prepared For: Tabata Family Trust. • Vinje & Middleton Engineering, Inc., June 23, 2006, "Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation, Proposed 26-Lot Subdivision, Camino Hills Drive, Carlsbad, Califomia, (A.P.H.'s 212-050-32 & -33)P Job #06-210-PP Prepared For: Tabata Family Trust.

Group Delta performed a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), which was provided to Lennar under separate cover. Scope of Work Group Delta's geotechnical scope of work included the following: • Site visit and photographic documentation; • Review of existing published geotechnical information including: o Aerial Photographs; o Topographic Maps; o Geologic Maps; o Fault Maps and Seismicity Data; o Existing geotechnical reports and grading plan; • Performing an Independent geotechnical assessment based on the data reviewed, commenting on the existing geotechnical report and recommendations, and summarizing our conclusions and comments in this memorandum. Group Delta did not perform additional subsurface investigations or geotechnical laboratory testing for this study. Additional geotechnical field investigation and testing of site soils should be performed during the final design phase of the project. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The site consists of Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APN) 212-050-32 and 212-050-33 and is currently undeveloped. The proposed project consists of rough grading and development of the 10.38 acre site with one or two story wood framed homes with no basements on 26 individual lots. Building pads will be created by cut-fill mass grading. Due to presence of undocumented fill and alluvial soils significant remedial grading (removal and recompaction) is required in portions of the site. Finish grade is generally near the existing grade, with cuts and fills generally within 10 feet of the existing grade, except on the southwest side (Lots 19-22) where excavations up to about 20 to 25 feet below existing grade will be required to remove a small hill. We understand that grading will require import soil. Development will include improvements to Camino Hills Drive, a new "G"-shaped residential street connecting to Camino Hills Drive, retaining walls along Camino Hills Drive, an earthen sound berm adjacent to El. Camino Real, and a bioretention area adjacent to the sound berm.

The project location, topographic map, aerial photographs, and street views of the site are presented in Figures lA through IF, respectively. The tentative tract map is shown in Figure 2. SITE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Site Conditions GROUP DELTA The site is currently unpaved and undeveloped, and is bounded by El Camino Real on the northeast and by local streets and residential structures on the northwest, southwest, and southeast sides, as shown in Figures lA through IF and Figure 2. Most of the interior of the site is a grassy field gently descending northeasterly toward El Camino Real. The southeast and southwest boundaries ofthe site are ascending 2h: lv graded slopes heavily vegetated with trees and with a maximum height of about 45 feet. A natural hill vegetated with grass and scattered trees is present near the northwest site boundary with a height of up to about 33 feet above the gently sloping portion of the site with slopes of 2h: lv or flatter. A single residential structure formerly occupied this hill (see Figures ICandZ); this structure has been removed. Surrounding streets are paved with asphalt concrete (AC) and have sidewalks, light poles, telephone poles, trees, buried utilities, and associated improvements. Street views of the site are shown in Figures ID through IF. Geology Most of western San Diego County, including the project area, lies within the Peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province of California. The subject site is located in the coastal plain, in a broad transition zone between older Mesozoic granitic and metavolcanic bedrock (to the east) and the younger, terraced coastal sedimentary rock of Quaternary to Tertiary age (to the west). The sedimentary deposits of the coastal plain generally extend between the coastline and the coastal range foothills and mountains to the east. These formational deposits are overlain locally by Holocene (Recent) overburden soils such as alluvium, colluvium, slopewash, and man-placed fill. Erosion of the coastal plain sediments has resulted in topography characterized by mesas, hills, and ridges dissected by a network of alluvial canyon drainages. The primaiy drainage in the site area is Agua Hedionda Creek located north of the site (Figure IB). The regional geologic setting is shown in Figure 3A. The generalized natural site geology is shown by an overlay of the regional geologic map onto Google Earth imagery in Figure 3B. The project site is at an interface between Tertiary-age (Eocene) soft bedrock of the Santiago Formation (Tsa), Old (late to middle Pleistocene) Alluvial Flood Plain Deposits (Qoa), also referred to as Terrace Deposits (Qt), and young Holocene Alluvium (Qa). Exposures of older Mesozoic granitic rock (Kp, Kl, Kt) and metamorphic rock (Mzu) are not present within the project site but are exposed to the south and east as shown in Figure 3B, and these units form the basement rock underlying N:\Projects\_A\M50(NR596 Tabata Site\Geotech\Tabata Development Qeotech Letter Report revLdoc Geotechnical Review Tabata - 10, Carlsbad, CA Lennar Homes of California GDC Project No. IR-596 August 30, 2013 Page 4 the project site at unknown depth. The natural soils at the project site are overlain locally by man placed fill soils, including compacted fills (Qcaf) and undocumented fills (Qaf). A site geologic map presented in the project geotechnical report is shown in Figure 3C, which is generally consistent with the regional mapping and indicates the location of existing compacted and undocumented fill materials. GROUP Seismicity The site is in a seismically active area. At the general latitude of San Diego County, the interaction between the North American and Pacific tectonic plates is considered to take place across a wide area extending from the San Andreas fault in the Imperial Valley, to nearly 100 km offshore to the west (see Figure 4). The main fault zones west of the San Andreas include the San Jacinto and Elsinore fault zones, the Newport Inglewood Rose Canyon fault zone, and a complex system of northwest trending offshore faults include the Coronado Bank, San Diego Trough, and San Clemente faults. A regional fault map is shown in Figure 4. No active faults are known to cross the project site. Major active faults that contribute to the seismic hazard at the site, and calculated deterministic site accelerations are summarized as follows: Mote: Based on Caltrans ARS Online.

Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and California (C/\L) Split Barrel Sampler penetration resistances were measured in the borings. Bulk and drive samples collected from the test pits and borings were visually classified in the field and selected samples were tested in the laboratory for in-situ moisture content and dry density, laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content, grain size distribution, Atterberg limits. Expansion Index, direct shear, corrosion (pH, sulfate, chloride, minimum resistivity), and R-value. Field and laboratory data are included in Vinje and Middleton's report in Appendix A. Based on the field investigation Vinje and Middleton prepared a geologic map of the site (see Figure 3Q. Geologic cross-sections from their report are reproduced in Figures 5A through 5D, and the cross-section locations are shown in Figure 3C. They classified the site soils sampled into 3 geologic units, listed below in order of increasing age: • Undifferentiated undocumented fill and Holocene alluvium (Qaf / Qal) • Pleistocene Terrace Deposits (Qt) [same as Old /Mluvium in Figure 3B] • Eocene Formational Rock (Ts) [same as Santiago Formation (Tsa) in Fig. 3B] /Ml 3 units have variable soil types that can be grouped into broad categories based on color, grain size distribution, and plasticity. The site soils were classified by Vinje & Middleton into 5 general types: • Soil Type 1: Pale brown to red brown lean to fat clay to sandy clay (SC/CL/CH) • Soil Type 2: Pale to dark brown to red brown silty and clayey sand (SAVSC) N:\Projects\_A\Ai50CMR596 Tabata Site\Geotech\Tabata Development Geotech Letter Report revLdoc Geotechnical Review Tabata - 10, Carlsbad, CA Lennar Homes of California GDC Project No. IR-596 August 30, 2013 Page 6 • Soil Type 3: Tan to red-brown clayey to silty sand with gravel (SC/SM)g • Soil Type 4: Pale to dark gray lean to fat clay and silt (CI7CH/MH) • Soil Type 5: Tan to yellow-tan to off-white-grey silty and clayey sand (SM/SC) Available data for the different geologic units were tabulated and analyzed as shown in Table 1 and summarized as follows: GROUP o o • Qaf / Qal: Undocumented Fill and Holocene Alluvium o Covers approximately the eastern 2/3 of the project site Overlies Qt in northeastern part of site, directly overlies Ts in southeastern part of site Depth over Qt or Ts mostly ranges from about 1 to 13 feet, but is shown as deep as 24 to 39 feet (Borings B-2 and B-3) toward the north end of site In boring B-3 undifferentiated Fill / /Mluvium is indicated to bottom of borehole at depth 39 feet. However, drilling problems were experienced below groundwater (below 32 feet), and based on other geologic data it seems unlikely alluvium extends this deep.

Generally soil Types 1 and 4 are highly expansive and predominantly fine grained with 50% or more passing No. 200 sieve, while soil Types 2, 3, and 5 are low to medium expansion potential and predominantly coarse grained with less than 50% passing No. 200 sieve. Groundwater Groundwater was encountered only in the two deepest borings (B-2 and B-3) in the northern part of the site. Groundwater was encountered in B-2 at a depth of 33 feet perched in the bedrock materials, and in Boring B-3 was encountered at a depth of 32 feet. Drilling problems in boring B-3 included heaving sand in the auger and caving, so blowcounts and samples in this borehole may not be representative of undisturbed conditions. /Mthough the log suggests this is still in fill / alluvial material, based on the depth and the grain size characteristics of materials indicated on the log and the proximity of the hill comprised of Qt materials, the soils below the groundwater appear that they may be part of the Qt (Qoa) or Ts (Tsa) units. GEOLOGIC AND SEISMIC HAZARDS Ground Rupture The site is not located within or nearby an /Mquist-Priolo (AP) earthquake fault zone. Due to lack of any known active fault crossing the site, fault rupture hazard at the site is considered remote. GROUP DELTA Seismic Shaking Strong shaking should be anticipated during the design life of the project. Nearby active faults and their locations with respect to the site are illustrated in Figure 4. Due to presence of alluvial soils at the site, Site Class D (Stiff Soil Profile) is appropriate for seismic analyses. Seismic shaking estimates based on deterministic and probabilistic methods were presented previously under "Seismicity" section. For facilities designed in accordance with Califomia Building Code (CBC) 2010 and ASCE 7-05, the seismic design recommendations are presented in Table 3. Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCE) horizontal Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) is 0.48g and design PGA is 2/3 of this value or 0.32g. Note that that the MCE PGA is generally consistent with the value reported for 2500 year return period in the previous "Seismicity" section. Liquefaction and Seismic Compaction Liquefaction involves the sudden loss in strength of a saturated, cohesionless soil (sand and non-plastic silts) caused by the build-up of pore water pressure during cyclic loading, such N:\ProjectsVAViJ50CIMR596 Tabata Site\Geotech\Tabata Development Geotech Letter Report revLdoc Geotechnical Review Tabata - 10, Carlsbad, CA Lennar Homes of California GDC Project No. IR-596 August 30, 2013 Page 9 as produced by an earthquake. This increase in pore water pressure can temporarily transform the soil into a fluid mass, resulting in vertical settlement and can also cause lateral ground deformations. Typically, liquefaction occurs in areas where there are loose to medium dense sands and silts, and where the depth to groundwater is less than 50 feet from the surface. In summary, three simultaneous conditions are required for liquefaction: • Liquefaction susceptible soils (loose to medium dense cohesionless soils); • Groundwater within 50 feet of the surface; • Strong Shaking, such as caused by an earthquake. Groundwater at the site appears to be within formational materials that are generally dense and not subject to liquefaction. In general the liquefaction potential at the site appears to be low. However, data from Boring B-3 is inconclusive due to drilling problems resulting from use of hollow stem auger below groundwater and the log indicating that groundwater may be within loose fill / young alluvium. This boring represents an isolated condition generally outside the developed lots, so it may not represent a concern. However, it should be further investigated by rotary boring and/or CPT prior to final design. Soil Collapse Potential Loose sands and silty sands with clay binder, low moisture content, and low dry density may be prone to sudden collapse and ground settlement if suddenly saturated. Alluvial soils in certain environments may contain such collapse-prone materials. Based on grains size characteristics, consolidation test results (indicate expansion rather than collapse), and moisture content and dry density test results, the collapse potential at the site appears to be low. Remedial grading will further reduce the collapse potential, if present. Seismic Slope Stability The site to be developed is relatively level and post-construction slopes will be engineered compacted fill planned at no steeper than 2h: lv. Therefore, slope instability is not considered a significant hazard at the site. Flood Hazard Based on review of FEMA Rood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) website, the site is not located within a 100 year or 500 year flood zone. GROUP DELTA nmmniMiiiBi N:\Projects\_AVJ50CMR596 Tabata Site\Geotech\Tabata Development Geotech Letter Report revLdoc Geotechnical Review August 30, 2013 Tabata - 10, Carlsbad, CA Page 10 Lennar Homes of California GDC Project No. IR-596 DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS Key Geotechnical Issues Development of the site is generally feasible in general accordance with recommendations in the existing geotechnical reports. The following are considered the key issues for site development: • Remedial Grading: o Removal and recompaction is required to remove and recompact compressible undocumented fill and alluvial soils and to undercut the cut lots, and stabilization fills are required where cutting into existing slopes; o Suggested depth of overexcavation is 6 to 10 feet in the fill area, but final depth is left as a field decision leaving some uncertainty in cost estimation; o Report suggests placing geogrid at the bottom of overex where soft and yielding soils are left in place, but area of stabilization is not clearly enough defined for estimating costs, o Based on boring / trench logs, suggested depth of overexcavation appears to remove all loose / soft undocumented fill and alluvial material to competent native soils except for the following locations: • B-2: 10 ft of removal leaves a total of 14 feet of undifferentiated fill / alluvium in place: 4 ft of soft clay (CiyCH) and 10 feet of loose to medium dense clayey sand (SC) • B-3: 7 ft removal leaves more than 20 ft of undifferentiated fill / alluvium in place, including some material described as loose / firm. o Leaving loose / soft undocumented fill / alluvial materials in place as indicated by Borings B-2 and B-3 may represent a risk; additional investigation by boring and CPT is recommended to better define the required depth of removals and potential for future settlement and need for mitigation. If deeper removals are found to be necessary, an option to reduce removal depths would be surcharging these areas during grading. • Expansive Soil: o Highly expansive soils are present in the site, randomly mixed with low to medium expansion soils o Expansive soils result in high post-tensioned slab requirements and thick pavement and flatwork sections o Selective grading and use of low expansion import may be considered to reduce costs of pavement and slabs • Import Soil: PT?nTTP ° Low expansion soil is recommended for import o This material should be used to cap lots and pavement areas to reduce cost of slabs and pavement DELTA imBHIUMiin N:\Projects\_AV\l50CMR596 Tabata Site\Geotech\Tabata Development Geotech Letter Report revl .doc Geotechnical Review Tabata - 10, Carlsbad, CA Lennar Homes of California GDC Project No. IR-596 August 30, 2013 Page 11 • Selective Grading: o Report suggests placing expansive soils deeper in the fills, lower expansion soils in the shallower portions; due to random presence of materials in the fill / alluvium selective grading and stockpiling materials generated from fill / alluvium may not be practical o Report suggests using Terrace Deposit materials in upper portions of fill to reduce expansion potential o However, terrace deposits do contain clay soils, and no borings are available in the large hill that will be the source of terrace materials, so the expansion characteristics are not known o Additional borings in this area would help to define the properties of the fill that will be generated in this terrace cut o Import soil should be specified as very low expansion and used to cap lots and pavement areas, since selective grading will be easier to control o Quantities and properties of terrace and import soils used to cap lots should be considered and may be used to realize cost savings. Comments on Existing Geotechnical Reports Site characterization and recommendations presented in the existing geotechnical reports generally appear to be reasonable and development of the site is feasible from a geotechnical standpoint if these recommendations are followed. Comments on specific issues are as follows: Remedial grading: o Removal and recompaction, undercutting of bedrock areas, and stabilization fills should be performed as recommended; o Deeper removals may be warranted in the northeastern part of the site near B-2 and B-3, as existing data show some loose / soft undocumented fill and alluvium may be left in place with the existing removal depths, which may pose a risk of future settlement; o Surcharging these deeper alluvial areas by stockpiling may be considered as an alternate to deeper removals; o CPT testing may be considered as a means of better defining required removal depths and surcharge areas across the site; o Soils removed are wet of optimum and may be difficult to compact and require drying; Expansive Soils and Selective Grading: o Import soils are required, and on-site soils range from low to high expansion potential o Savings in slab, hardscape, and pavement design may be realized by importing low expansion soils, selectively grading low expansion on site soils, N:\Projects\_AVJ500\IR596 Tabata Site\Geotech\Tabata Development Geotech Letter Report revLdoc Geotechnical Review Tabata - 10, Carlsbad, CA Lennar Homes of California GDC Project No. IR-596 August 30, 2013 Page 12 and placing the low expansion import and on-site soils in the upper part of the subgrade o Final values of expansion potential should be determined on each lot after rough grading is complete; • Detailed investigation should be performed including borings and CPTs to supplement existing data and address the following issues: o Refine required depths of removals across the site and areas where deeper removals or surcharge may be warranted o Define or rule out liquefaction potential in saturated alluvium, if present o Expansion potential of borrow soil from the cut areas within the existing hill Should you have any questions regarding this report, please call us at (949) 450-2100.

INTRODUCTION The most current project Grading Plans prepared by REC Consultants, Inc. (not dated) for the proposed 26-lot residential development referenced above, also known as Tabata 10 subdivision, were provided to us for review and comments. The plans are reproduced herein and enclosed with this transmittal as Plates 1-3. The approximate site coordinates are 33.1452°N latitude and 117.2880"W longitude. The subject property was originally studied with respect to surface and subsurface geotechnical conditions performed by this office with findings, conclusions and recommendations summarized in the following written technical report: Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation Proposed 26-Lot Subdivision Camino Hills Drive, Carisbad, California (A.P.N.'s 212-050-32 & -33) Job #11-210-P. report dated June 23. 2006 The reference report was reviewed in connection with the preparation ofthis update study and a copy is attached herein as Appendix A. The purpose ofthis work was to review the referenced report and confirm compatibility of the project current grading plans with the site indicated geotechnical conditions. Additional updated and/oramended recommendations consistent with current codes and engineering standards are also provided in the following sections and will supplement or supersede those given in the referenced report, where specifically indicated. Our efforts in connection with the preparation of this report included a recent site visit conducted by our Engineering Geologist on December 5, 2011. II. SITE DESCRIPTION Existing topographic conditions and proposed development at the project property are shown the enclosed Plate 3. Based on our recent observations, site conditions primarily have remained substantially the same as discussed in the referenced report. In general, much of the study property consists of gently sloping terrain that descends in a northeasteriy direction to El Camino Real. Previous grading activities for off-site developments have modified the property to include large graded slopes that ascend to residential developments along the southerly and easterly site margins.

CARLSBAD PAGE 2 marks the northwest property margin adjacent to Camino Hills Drive. The hill rises nearly 30 feet above surrounding areas with slope gradients that generally approach 2:1 (horizontal to vertical) maximum. The large graded slopes that mark the southerly and easteriy site margins were constructed at 2:1 gradients maximum and range to nearly 50 feet high. Drainage terraces were noted in south and northeast portions of the graded embankments. Available pre-development topography indicate the perimeter slopes are largely fill embankments with some fill-over-cut slopes. The previous residential dwelling located on the hilltop in the northwesteriy area of the property has been removed. Elsewhere, the property is characterized by grass covered gently sloping terrain previously utilized for agricultural purposes. Perimeter graded slopes are well landscaped with large trees, shrubs, and assorted groundcover plants. Site drainage sheetlfows in a northeasterly direction towards El Camino Real. Excessive scouring or erosion is not in evidence. ill. GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS Geotechnical conditions at the project property have remained substantially unchanged from those discussed in the details in the referenced report (see Appendix A). In general, previous grading has modified much of the project site and altered the original surtace contours. Old topographic maps of the area indicate that lower, level areas of the site were previously characterized by a natural canyon that drained northward toward El Camino Real. Grading of the area in the late 1960's leveled the site for agricultural purposes. Graded perimeter slopes in the south and east margins were constructed at a later date in support ofthe off-site development above. The project site exposes natural formational and Terrace Deposit units that are mantled by surficial alluvial and fill deposits. Eocene age formational rock units are present at shallow to modest depths in south and east portions of the property and found at depth beneath younger soil deposits in northerly areas. Natural Terrace Deposit soils are present in the north and west portions of the property and thicken northward and pinch out atop formational rocks to the south. Undifferentiated fill and alluvial soils occupy lower elevations of the project site and compacted fill sections mark the south and east perimeter areas of the project site. Groundwater conditions, as encountered during the original site investigation, occur at depths of 32 and 33 feet below ground surfaces in the northwest portions of the property (see Boring Logs B-2 and B-3 in Appendix A). The noted groundwater is sufficiently deep and is not expected to impact the proposed grading orthe future stability of the developed property provided our recommendations are followed.

Approximate locations of the Test Trench excavations and Boring explorations are transferred and are shown on the enclosed Plate 3. IV. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The project current Grading Plan (Plate 3) proposes a substantially similar development scheme to the eariier reviewed project Preliminary Site Plan used as a basis of our geotechnical study in 2006 (see Plate 2, Appendix A). The grading plans outline the creation of a 26-lot residential subdivision with associated interior public roadways and improvements using minorto relatively significant cut-fill grading. Current plans, however, depict new building pad elevations for some lots. Elevated pad elevations on the order of 4 feet are now proposed for perimeter southeastern lots. Similar grades or minor elevation changes are noted forthe remaining lots. Minor graded slopes provide ground elevation transitions between uneven pad surfaces. Additional Cross-Sections showing the proposed new pad elevations and associated new graded embankments are included as Plate 4. Based on the project plans, neariy 26,000 yards of import soil will be required to complete grading and achieve final design grades. A modest sound earthen berm, incorporating relatively short retaining walls, is proposed along tiie north/northwest margin ofthe property adjacent to El Camino Real. Proposed hydro-modification consists of a self-contained vegetated bio-retention/detention area with impermeable liners on sides and bottom, engineered soils, and perforated and header pipes surrounded with aggregate or crushed rocks, along the northern property margins. The treated stonnwater from the bio- retention/detention area is discharged via a new 24-inch RCP storm drain pipe into the existing 36-inch RCP pipe beneath the El Camino Real. Future residential construction is anticipated to consist of single and/or two story conventional wood-frame buildings with exterior stucco supported on shallow stiff concrete foundations with stem-walls and slab-on-grade floors, slab-on-ground with turned-down footings, or post-tension slab foundations. V. SEISMIC GROUND MOTION VALUES For design purposes, site specific seismic ground motion values were determined as part of this investigation in accordance with the California Building Code (2010 CBC). The following parameters are consistent with the indicated project seismic environment and our experience with similar earth deposits in the vicinity of the project site, and may be utilized for project design work: ViNii; & Mit)i>i.i;TON lENtjiNiii-ttiNC, INC. • 2450 Aiito IVk Wny • Escoiulido.

Based on our analysis, the site PGAMCE was estimated to be 048.g using the web-based United States Geological Survey (USGS) ground motion calculator. The design PGA determined as two-thirds of the Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCE) was estimated lo be 0.32g. VI. HYDRO-MODIFICATIONS Project stormwater management should be designed and constructed considering the site indicated geotechnical conditions. The implemented management practice(s) should also have no short and long term impacts on the site building pad surfaces, graded slopes and natural embankments, fills and backfills, structures, and onsite and nearby off improvements and properties. Site hydro-modification, as currently proposed consist of a self-contained vegetated bio- retention/detention area with impermeable liners on sides and bottom, engineered soils filter medial and perforated and header pipes surrounded with aggregates or crushed rocks, along the northern property margins. Treated water from the bio-retention/detention area is captured and discharged via a new 24-inch RCP pipe into the existing 36-inch RCP storm drain pipe under El Camino Real.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Project most current Grading Plans reproduced herein as Ptates 1 through 3 represent feasible designs and development schemes from a geotechnical viewpoint. The most significant change from the original plans include minor to moderate elevations changes in final pad grades for some lots, the addition of an earthen sound wall adjacent to El Camino Real, and a vegetated bio-retention/detention area as a part ofthe project hydro- modification. The site mostly remains substantially unchanged from conditions presented in the referenced Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation report (Appendix A). All conclusions and recommendations provided in the referenced report (Appendix A) remain valid and should be incorporated into the final plans and implemented during the construction phase except where specifically amended or superseded below. Additional site-specific conclusions and recommendations consistent with the enclosed plans, and current codes, standards and engineering practice are also provided below and should be considered where ever appropriate and as applicable: 1. Landslides, faults or significant shear zones are not present at the project property and are not considered a geotechnical factor in the planned developments. The study site is not located near or within the Alquist - Priolo earthquake fault zone established by the State of Caiifornia. 2. Soil collapse, liquefaction and seismically induced settlements will not be a factor in the development of the project property provided our remedial grading and foundation recommendations are followed. 3. All existing underground wateriines, sewer lines, storm drains, utilities, tanks, structures, and improvements at or nearby the project construction site should be throughly potholed, identified, and marked prior to the initiation of the actual excavations, grading and earthworks. Specific geotechnical engineering recommendations may be required based on the actual field locations, invert elevations, backfill conditions and proposed grades in the event of a grading conflict. Utility lines may need to be temporarily redirected, if necessary, priorto earthwork operations and reinstalled upon completion. Alternatively, permanent relocations may be appropriate as shown on the approved plans. Abandoned lines, irrigation pipes, and conduits should be properly removed, capped or sealed off to prevent any potential for future water infiltrations into the embankments, foundation bearing and subgrade soils. Voids created bythe removals ofthe abandoned underground pipes, tanks and structures should be properly backfilled with compacted fills in accordance with the requirements of this report.

Remove all existing surface and subsurface improvements, old foundations and concrete slabs, vegetation, trees, roots, stumps, construction debris, and all other unsuitable materials and deleterious matter from all areas of proposed new fills, embankments, improvements, and structures plus 10 feet outside the perimeter, where possible and as approved in the field. Trash, vegetation, and construction debris shall not be allowed to occur or contaminate new site fills and backfills. The prepared grounds should be inspected and approved by the project geotechnical consultant or his designated field representative priorto grading and earthworks, 5. Earthwork and remedial grading operations should be completed as specified in the Remedial Grading and Earthworks section of the referenced report (Page 17 of Appendix A). Site upper fill and alluvium deposits in the areas of planned new fills, embankments, structures, and improvements plus 10 horizontal feet outside the perimeter should be removed (stripped) to the underiying competent natural soils. Terrace Deposits, and Formational IRock as approved in thefield, and recompacted. Ground stabilization techniques using Tensar Geogrid BX-1100 (orgreaterfrom the same series) earth reinforcement may be required at the yielding bottom of removals, and within the compacted fill mass, in the case of unsuitable exposure and should be anticipated as specified and directed in the field. Actual removal depths should be established by the project geotechnical consultant at the time of earthwork operalions based on exposed field conditions. Typical removal depths in the vicinity of the subsurface are given in the referenced report (Table 15, Appendix A) and also depicted on the attached Plate 3. Locally deeper removals may be necessary as directed in the field and should be anticipated. 6. Current plans indicated minor to moderate changes in the final pad elevations. Elevated pad grades are now proposed forthe south/southeastern lots with Lots 3-5 raised up to 4 feet above the prior elevations (see Plate 2, Appendix A). Ground transitioning will be accomplished with new graded cuts on the order of 5-8 feet high. Reconstruction of lower sections of the exposed siope in these areas (Lots 4 and 6-10) with stabilization fills, or a toe retaining wall support, as recommended in a referenced report (see Plate 20, Appendix A) may still be necessary. Final recommendations for slope reconstructions for new graded embankments constructed within or at the toe of existing graded slopes will be provided in the field by the project geotechnical engineer based upon actual developed exposures.

CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD PAGE 7 7. The project is an unbalanced grading operation and neariy 26,000 yards of import soil will be required to achieve final design grades. Onsite soils may also may be expected to shrink approximately 10% to 20% on a volume basis when compacted as specified herein. Import soils required to complete grading, should be good quality non-corrosive, very low expansive sandy granular D.G. type soils (100% passing 1-inch sieve, more than 50% passing #4 sieve and less than 18% passing #200 sieve with expansion index less than 21), inspected, tested as necessary, and approved by the project geotechnical consultant prior to delivery to the site. Import soils should also meet or exceed the design parameters given in the following sections. Good quality sandy granular D.G. type import soils should be placed within the upper pad grades. Attempts should also be made to bury site potentially expansive clays in deeper fills below the upper 4 feet and place, better quality sandy onsite soils within the upper grades using select grading techniques, as specified in the referenced report. 8. The cut portions of cut-fill transition pads should be undercut to a minimum depth of 3 feet or at least 12 inches below the bottom of the deepest footing(s), whichever is more and reconstructed to design pad grades with compacted fills, as specified. In the roadways, driveway, parking and on-grade slabs/improvement transition areas, there should be a minimum of 12 inches of compacted soils below rough finish subgrade. 9. Fill materials, processing, spreading and placement in thin horizontal lifts (less than 8 inches maximum), moisture conditioning above the optimum levels and compaction procedures, and minimum compaction levels (95% within the upper 3 feet and where specified, and 90% below the upper 3 feet) will remain the same as specified. All grading and earthworks should be completed in accordance with the Chapter 18 and Appendix "J" ofthe California Building Code (CBC). City of Carisbad Grading Ordinances, the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction, and the requirements ofthe referenced soil report (Appendix ) and this update transmittal. 10. New graded slopes, berms, and embankments constructed in connection with the site development are expected minor features on the order of 10 feet high maximum. Graded slopes and embankments should be programmed for 2:1 gradients and constructed as spiffed in the referenced report (see Appendix A).

Excavations and removals of onsite existing fills and alluvium are expected to predominantly generate marginal quality plastic silty to clay-rich deposits which typically require additional processing, mixing and moisture conditioning efforts in orderto manufacture a uniform homogeneous mixture suitable for reuse as new site fills. Site potentially expansive soils should be buried in deeper fills and better quality sandy soils generated from the excavations of site Terrace Deposits, and good quality sandy import soils place within upper pad grades, as specified. Plastic silty to clayey soils are also not suitable for wall and trench backfills and good quality sandy soils should be used for this purpose. For foundation design purposes, however, sandy clay to silty clayey sand (SC/CL) bearing soils with low to high expansion potential (Expansive Index less than 131) based on ASTM D-4829 classification should be considered. Remedial grading and geotechnical foundation design recommendations specified herein are provided to also mitigate adverse affects of site potentially expansive soils . 12. Soil design parameters, and foundafions and slab designs will remain the same as specified in the referenced report. However, the following revised parameters are appropriate based on the anticipated bearing soils properties and supercede those previously given where specifically applicable: * Design edge moisture variation distance for edge lift (em) 4.9 feet. * Design edge moisture variation distance for center lift (em) 9.0 feet. * Design differential swell occurring at the perimeter of slab for edge lift condition (Ym) 1.32 inches. * Design differential swell occurring at the perimeter of slab for center lift condition (Ym) 2,91 inches. In case of post-tensioned slab foundation system, underslab moisture control should consist of a well-perforrning vapor barrier/moisture retardant (minimum 15- mil Stego) placed mid-height in a minimum of 4 inches of clean sand (SE of 30 or greater). However, interior underslab moisture control requirements per CGC Section 4.505.2.1 consisfing of a minimum 4-inch thick base of 14-inch or larger clean aggregate, provided with a vapor barrier (minimum 15-mil Stego) in direct contact with concrete, and a concrete mix design which address bleeding, shrinkage, and curling may also be considered. 13. Alt exterior concrete slabs and flatwork (walkways, and patios) should also be constructed as specified in the referenced report (Appendix A). Slab subgrade soils should be compacted to minimum 90% compaction levels. Subgrade soils should be tested for proper moisture and specified compaction levels and approved bythe project geotechnical consultant prior to the placement of concrete.

CARLSBAD PAGES Slab reinforcements lying on subgrade will be ineffective and shortly corrode due to lack of adequate concrete cover. Reinforcing bars should be correctly placed extending through the construction joints tying the slab panels. In construction practices where the reinforcements are discontinuous or cut the construction joints, slab panels should be tied together with minimum 16 inches long #3 dowels (dowel baskets) at 18 inches on centers placed near the mid-height in the slab (9 inches on either side of the joint). Provide thickened slab edge and "tool joint" or "softcut" contraction/control joints for exterior slabs as specified. The larger dimension of any panel shall not exceed 125% of the smaller dimension. All exterior slab designs should be confirmed in the final as-graded compaction report. 14. Preliminary structural section estimates forthe asphalt and PCC paving will remain the same as specified. The minimum asphalt pavement structural section presented in Table 16 of the referenced report (see Page 32 of Appendix A), or the minimum section required by the City of Carlsbad, whichever is greater, should be considered. Provide "tool joint" or "softcut" contraction/control joints for all PCC paving surfaces also as specified. The larger dimension of any panel shall not exceed 125% of the smaller dimension. Joints shall intersect free edges at a 90" angle and shall extend straight for a minimum of 1/4 feet from the edge. The minimum angle between any two intersecting joints shall be 80". Align joints of adjacent panels. Also, align joints in attached curbs with joints in slab panels. Provide adequate curing using approved methods (curing compound maximum coverage rate = 200 sq. ft./gal,). 15. The proposed bio-retention area within the project development is a self- contained system which incorporates timely removal of the captured water by the perforated subdrain pipe and discharging the treated water into the storm water drainage facilities, without allowing accumulation or saturation of the surrounding soils. The proposed bio-retention system is considered acceptable from a geotechnical point of view and may be inslalled at the designated site locations as shown on the project plans. Added care, however, will be required during the bio-retention constructions to void puncturing the impermeable liner and assure positive outflow of the perforated subdrain pipe. 16. Control of site surface drainage and potential for post construction subsurface water caused by surface water infiltrations is one of the most significant geotechnical factors at the project building sites. Surface flow, run-off drainage and subsurface water should not impact graded surface, saturate wall backfills, bearing and subgrade soils or cause erosion. All retaining walls should be provided with a back drain as specified. Drainage ditches should be provided at the top and toe of slopes and behind site retaining walls with collected water directed to approved disposal Vif-jm & MinJ)i.i;TON liNiWNP.i-itiNi.;, INC. • 2450 Auio P.ark Way • Bicondido, Calirornia 92029-1229 • Phone (760) 743-1214 GEOTECHNICAL PLAN REVIEW UPDATE DECEMBER 13, 2011 TABATHA 10 SUBDIVISION.

INTRODUCTION The property investigated in this work includes an approximate 10-acre parcel located at the east terminus of Camino Hills Drive, adjacent to El Camino Real, within the City of Carlsbad. The site location is shown on a Regional Index Map enclosed with this report as Plate 1. We understand that the properly is proposed for a 26-lot residential subdivision with associated interior streets and underground improvements. Consequently, the purpose of this investigation was to determine soil and geotechnical conditions at the site and to evaluate their influence upon the planned development. Geologic mapping, test trench and boring excavations, as well as soil sampling and testing were among the activities conducted in conjunction with this effort which has resulted in the geotechnical grading and foundation recommendations presented herein. II. SITE DESCRIPTION A Preliminary Review Site Plan depicting existing topographic conditions and the proposed development scheme has been prepared by Pasco Engineering and is reproduced herein as Plate 2. As shown, much ofthe study property consists of gently sloping terrain that descends in a northeasterly direction to El Camino Real. An anomalous hill marks the northwest property margin adjacent to Camino Hills Drive. Previous grading activities for off-site developments have modified the property to include large graded slopes that ascend to residential developments along the southeriy and easterly site margins. The anomalous hill rises nearly 30 feet above surrounding areas with slope gradients that generally approach 2:1 (horizontal to vertical) maximum. The large graded slopes that mark the southerly and easterly site margins were constructed at 2:1 gradients maximum and range to nearly 50 feet high. Drainage terraces were noted in south and northeast portions of the graded embankments. Pre-development topography from San Diego Topographical Survey Maps No.'s 354-1677 and 354-1683 dated 1975 indicate the perimeter slopes are largely fill embankments with some fill-over-cut slopes. This was confirmed by shallow hand-dug test pits in selected areas of the slopes. Documentation pertaining to slope construction is not available for review. The symetrical hill in the northwesterly portion supports a residential dwelling and associated improvements. Portions of the southwest corner of the property are currently utilized for stockpiling irrigation supplies. Gently sloping areas of the property appear to have been previously used for agricultural purposes, but presently support a modest cover of grass and weeds. Perimeter graded slopes are well landscaped with large trees, shrubs, ) and assorted groundcover plants. ViNli- & MiODun oN 13N0iNi-:i-tiiNC,.

Excessive scouring or erosion is not in evidence. III. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The existing dwelling and associated structures and improvements are planned for demolitiori to allow for the development of a 26-lot residential subdivision with interior roadways and underground improvements. Cut-fill grading techniques will be used to construct level building pads and roadway surfaces. Soils generated from the cutting of the northwest hill will be used as compacted fills placed in lower areas of the site. Vertical cut and fill depths will approach 30 feet and 15 feet maximum respectively. Planned new - graded cut and fill slopes will be modest embankments approaching 10 feet high maximum and are programmed for 2:1 gradients. Perimeter slopes will also be extended at the same gradients (2:1) below the existing toe levels to achieve adjacent pad grades that are approximately up to 6 feet lower. public Interior roadway improvements include a horseshoe-shaped private street that will provide access to individual lots from Camino Hills Drive at two locations. Construction plans are not available. However, future residential constructions are anticipated to consist of conventional wood-framed with exterior stucco buildings supported on shallow foundations with stem-walls and slab-on-grade floors, or slab-on-ground with turned-down footings. IV. SITE INVESTIGATION Subsurface conditions were chiefly determined by the excavation of 10 test trenches dug with a tractor-mounted backhoe and the excavation of 4 small-diameter test borings drilled with a truck-mounted rotary auger drill. A Geotechnical Boring Permit (#LM0N103949 dated May 3, 2006) was issued by the County of San Diego Health Department forthe two deep borings. All trenches and borings were logged by our project geologist who also retained representative soil and rock samples at selected locations and intervals for subsequent laboratory testing. Locations of exploratory excavations are shown on the enclosed Preliminary Site Plan, Plate 2. Logs of the excavations are included with this report as Plates 3-11. Laboratory test results are summarized in following sections of this report. V. GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS Much of the project site is modified by previous grading which has altered the original surface contours. Old topographic maps ofthe area indicate that lower, level areas of the site were previously characterized by a natural canyon that drained northward toward El ViNil=. & Mii-ini.i;rON liNCiNKi-.KiNC, INC, • 2450 Auro Park Wny • RwnLHiilo, California 92029-1229 • Phone (760) 743-1214 PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PAGE 3 26-LOT SUBDIVISION, CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 Camino Real, Grading of the area in the late 1960's leveled the site for agricultural purposes. Graded perimeter slopes in the south and east margins were constructed at a later date in support ofthe off-site development above. Consequently, the projiect site exposes natural formational and Terrace Deposit units that are mantled by surficial alluvial and fill deposits. A. Earth Materials The following earth deposits are recognized at the project site: Formafional Rock (Ts) - Eocene age formational rock units are present at shallow to modest depths in south and east portions ofthe property and found at depth beneath younger soil deposits in northerly areas. As exposed in our test excavations site formational rock consists predominantly of pale grey colored siltstone with local interbeds of sandstone. The rocks were typically found weathered soft in upper exposures and grade uniformly dense at depth. Project formational rocks are competent deposits with no indication of instability, and will adequately support planned fills, structures, and improvements. Terrace Deposit (Qt) - Natural Terrace Deposit soils were encountered in north and west portions of the property. The Terrace Deposits thicken northward and pinch out atop formational rocks to the south. Site Terrace Deposits largely consist of dark-colored clayey sands and were found in moist and loose to soft conditions near the surface grading more dense at depth. Noted exposures are stable units that will adequately support new fills, structures, and improvements. Fill - Alluvium (af-Qal) - Undifferentiated fill and alluvial soils occupy lower elevations of the project site approximately as shown on Plate 2. These soils consists chiefly of silty sands with clay and occur in a loose, and soft to medium dense condition. Compacted Fill (Caf) - Structural fill sections mark the south and east perimeter areas of the project site as shown on Plate 2. The fills are locally derived compacted sections that support off-site improvements above. Noted fill slopes at the site are provided with a good plant cover and do not evidence instability. Details of project earth materials are given on the enclosed Test Trench Logs and Boring Logs (Plates 3-11) and further defined in a following section herein. The indicated subsurface relationship is depicted on Geologic Cross-Sections enclosed herein as Plates 12-14. ViNii: JV MiiinLirrON ENCINUHKINI;.

Groundwater and Surface Drainage Subsurface water was encountered at depths of 33 and 32 feet below ground surfaces in borings B-2 and B-3 respectively. Elsewhere, groundwater conditions were not encountered to the depths explored. The noted groundwater is sufficiently deep and is not expected to impact the proposed grading as currently planned or the future stability of the developed property provided our recommendations are followed. However, the control of surface run-off and storm water is critical to the continuing stability of the property and graded surfaces. Water should not be allowed to pond on pad surfaces and over-watering of site vegetation may create overly moist to wet ground conditions near finish pad grades. Development of the property should include improved site drainage and construction of engineered surface drainage and storm runoff control facilities as indicated on the project drainage improvement plans. C. Slope Stability Southeriy and easterly site perimeters are marked by 2:1 gradient graded slopes constructed to support residential developments above. Documentation pertaining to the slope construction is not available for review. Older topographic maps indicate the slopes range from fill slopes to fill over cut slopes. These slopes are well landscaped and were carefully inspected by our project engineering geologist. The graded embankments are performing well and do not evidence slope instability. Pad constructions will lower the grades adjacent to the southerly and easteriy embankments where slopes will continue to descend at 2:1 gradients to an additional maximum height of 6 feet The new toe embankment should be reconstructed as a graded stabilization fill slope as recommended in the following sections. Alternatively, a retaining wall may be constructed at the base ofthe slope in orderto achieve design grades and assure stability ofthe existing embankments. New graded slopes planned in connection with the site development are generally minor to modest embankments programmed for 2:1 gradients. New graded slopes will be grossly stable with respect to shallow and deep-seated failures provided slope construction recommendations, specified in the following sections, are followed. D. Faults / Seismicity Faults or significant shear zones are not indicated on or near proximity to the project site. 1 ,icA A iv,.,i. Ml... . i: /•"„(.(".. :,.

CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD PAGE 5 JUNE 23, 2006 As with most areas of California, the San Diego region lies within a seismically active zone; however, coastal areas of the county are characterized by low levels of seismic activity relative to inland areas to the east. During a 40-year period (1934-1974), 37 earthquakes were recorded in San Diego coastal areas by the California Institute of Technology. None ofthe recorded events exceeded a Richter magnitude of 3.7, nor did any of the earthquakes generate more than modest ground shaking or significant damages. Most of the recorded events occurred along various offshore faults which characteristically generate modest earthquakes. Historically, the most significant earthquake events which affect local areas originate along well known, distant fault zones to the east and the Coronado Bank Fault to the west. Based upon available seismic data, compiled from California Earthquake Catalogs, the most significant historical event in the area of the study site occiirred in 1800 at an estimated distance of 10.0 miles from the project area. This event, which Is thought to have occurred along an off-shore fault, reached an estimated magnitude of 6.5 with estimated bedrock acceleration values of 0.129g at the project site. The following list represents the most significant faults which commonly impact the region. Estimated ground acceleration data compiled from Digitized California Faults (Computer Program EQFAULT VERSION 3.00 updated) typically associated with the fault is also tabulated: TABLE 1 l.77m:W. Maxirn.urn •.:;....-';ProJi>aBle,,.;^ ,• Rose Canyon 6.6 miles 0.210g Newport-Inglewood 8.2 miles 0.182g Coronado Bank 22.6 miles 0.175g Elsinore-Julian 22.6 miles 0.150g The location of significant faults and earthquake events relative to the study site are depicted on a Fault - Epicenter Map enclosed with this report as Plate 15. More recently, the number of seismic events which affect the region appears to have heightened somewhat. Nearly 40 earthquakes of magnitude 3.5 or higher have been recorded in coastal regions between January 1984 and August 1986. Most of the earthquakes are thought to have been generated along offshore faults.

CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 For the most part, the recorded events remain moderate shocks which typically resulted in low levels of ground shaking to local areas. A notable exception to this pattern was recorded on July 13, 1986. An earthquake of magnitude 5,3 shook County coastal areas with moderate to locally heavy ground shaking resulting in $700,000 in damages, one death, and injuries to 30 people. The quake occurred along an offshore fault located nearly 30 miles southwest of Oceanside. A series of notable events shook County areas with a (maximum) magnitude 7,4 shock in the early morning of June 28, 1992. These quakes originated along related segments of the San Andreas Fault approximately 90 mites to the north. Locally high levels of ground shaking over an extended period of time resulted; however, significant damages to local structures were not reported. The increase in earthquake frequency in the region remains a subject of speculation among geologists; however, based upon empirical information and the recorded seismic history of County areas, the 1986 and 1992 events are thought to represent the highest levels of ground shaking which can be expected at the study site as a result of seismic activity. In recent years, the Rose Canyon Fault has received added attention from geologists. The fault is a significant structural feature in metropolitan San Diego which includes a series of parallel breaks trending southward from La Jolla Cove through San Diego Bay toward the Mexican border. Test trenching along the fault in Rose Canyon indicated that at that location the fault was last active 6,000 to 9,000 years ago. More recent work suggests that segments of the fault are younger having been last active 1000 - 2000 years ago. Consequently, the fault has been classified as active and included within an Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone established by the State of California. Fault zones tabulated in the preceding table are considered most likely to Impact the region of the study site during the lifetime of the project. The faults are periodically active and capable of generating moderate to locally high levels of ground shaking at the site. Ground separation as a result of seismic activity is not expected at the property. For design purposes, site specific seismic parameters were determined as part of this investigation in accordance with the California Building Code. The following parameters are consistent with the indicated project seismic environment based on site specific study and our experience with similar earth deposits in the vicinity of the project site, and may be utilized for project design work: ViNii- & Mmni.in oN 1:NC.INI-I-IUN«;.

A site specific probabilistic estimation of peak ground acceleration was also performed using the FRISKSP (T. Blake, 2000) computer program. Based upon Boore et al (1997) attenuation relationship, a 10 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years was estimated to produce a site specific peak ground acceleration of 0.32g (Design-Basis Earthquake, DBE). The results were obtained from the corresponding probability of exceedance versus acceleration curve. E. Geologic Hazards Geologic hazards are not presently indicated at the project site. Perimeter graded slopes are performing well with no indication of gross shallow or deep-seated instability. The most significant geologic hazards at the property will be those associated with ground shaking in the event of a major seismic event. Liquefaction or related ground rupture failures are considered remote to none provided our remedial grading and ground stabilization recommendations are followed. F. Laboratory Testing / Results Earth deposits encountered in our exploratory test excavations were closely examined and sampled for laboratory testing. Based upon our test trench and borings, standard performing penetration tests (SPT), field exposures and site soils have been grouped into the following soil types: TABLE 3 .'>:-^-.7:-ii 7,\'':y 7...: .

SITE CORROSION ASSESSMENT A site is considered to be corrosive to foundation elements, walls and drainage structures if one or more of the following conditions exists: * Sulfate concentration is greater than or equal to 2000 ppm (0.2% by weight). * Chloride concentration is greater than or equal to 500 ppm (0.05 % by weight). * pH is less than 5.5. For structural elements, the minimum resistivity of soil (or water) indicate the relative quantity of soluble salts present in the soil (or water). In general, a minimum resistivity value for soil (or water) less than 1000 ohm-cm indicates the presence of high quantities of soluble salts and a higher propensity for corrosion. Appropriate corrosion mitigation measures for corrosive conditions should be selected depending on the service environment, amount of aggressive ion salts (chloride or sulfate), pH levels and the desired service life of the structure. Laboratory test results performed on selected representative site samples indicated that the minimum resistivity is less than 1000 ohm-cm suggesting a potential for presence of high quantities of soluble salts.

Based on the results of the corrosion analyses, the project site may be considered non-corrosive. Conformation testing should be completed during the actual earthworks and grading operations to further verify site corrosion conditions. The project site is not located within 1000 feet of salt or brackish water. Based upon the result of the tested soil sample, the amount of water soluble sulfate (S04) was found to be 0,052 to 0.060 percent by weight which is considered negligible according to the California Building Code Table No, 19-A-4. Portland cement Type 11 may be used.

CONCLUSIONS Based upon the foregoing investigation, development of the study site into an 26-lot residential subdivision with the associated internal roadway and underground improvements is feasible from a geotechnical viewpoint. Adverse geologic conditions which could preclude site development were not indicated at the property. The following factors are unique to the property and will most impact project development procedures from a geotechnical viewpoint: * Slope instability or geologic hazards are not present at or near the project site and will not be a factor in site devolvement. * The property is chiefly a graded site developed to its existing lines and grades for agricultural purposes in the late 1960's. Grading documents including engineering observations and compaction testing records of prior earthworks operations at the site, are not available, * Much of the property is occupied by a modest to thick section of undifferentiated fill/alluvial soil (see mapped areas "af-Qal" on Plate 2). These soils occur in a loose to soft condition particularly in near-surface exposures. Post construction compression and settlement ofthe these deposits are considered to be the primary geotechnical concern at the study site. Consequently, ground stabilization and ViNfi; & Miiini.in oN l-:N(iiNi;i:uiNC..

Post construction settlement of site fills/alluvium after development is not expected to exceed approximately IK inches, and should occur below the heaviest loaded footings. The magnitude of post construction differential settlements of site fills/alluvium (as expressed in terms of angular distortion) is not anticipated to exceed V4-inch between similar elements, in a 20-foot span. * Remaining areas of the site are mostly underlain by formational rocks or Terrace Deposit units (see mapped areas "Ts" and "Qt" on Plate 2). These are suitably dense units and will provide adequate support for the planned new fills, structures and improvements. * Perimeter embankments at the project property are predominantly compacted fill slopes (designated as "Caf in Plate 2) constructed as a part of upper development. The existing perimeter embankment slopes are provided with a well-established cover of vegetation, and have performed well since their construction with no evidence of gross instability. Some additional undercutting is proposed to a maximum height of 6 feet in the south corner of the project (see Plate 20). The lower exposed slopes should be constructed as stabilization fills as recommended in a following section herein. Alternatively, a retaining wall may be constructed in the impacted areas in order to achieve final design grades and enhance the overall gross stability of site embankments, * Soils generated from project fills/alluvium excavations will predominantly consist of marginal quality piastic clay soils which can be detrimental to site structures and improvements if they occur within upper finish pad grades. Excavations of site Terrace Deposits underlaying the northwestern hill are expected to generate better quality low expansive sandy soils. Site marginal quality plastic clayey soils should be buried within deeper fills, and better quality sandy soils available from the excavation of project Terrace Deposits may be placed at finish pad grades using select grading techniques. Alternatively, good quality sandy granular import soils may also be considered to cap the building pad areas. * Plastic clayey soils typically require added processing, moisture conditioning and mixing efforts in order to manufacture a uniform mixture suitable for reuse as new site compacted fills. Potentially expansive clayey soils typically result in thicker pavement sections and will require special geotechnical engineering mitigation and foundations/slab designs which may include presaturation of subgrade soils, deeper foundations and thicker slab-on-grade floors, or post-tensioned / structural VINJJ: &.

CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 slab-on-ground foundations if they occur within upper pad grades. Capping the site with better quality on-site sandy soils or good quality sandy granular import soils will allow the use of more conventional foundations/slab designs and improve pavement structural sections. Moisture sensitive expansive soils and related periodic soil heaving-shrinkage is also considered a major geotechnical concern at the study site. Based on the available laboratory test results and noted site conditions, final bearing and subgrade soils may be anticipated to consist of silty sandy clay to clayey silty sand (SC/CL) with low to high expansion potential (expansion index less than 131) according to the California Building Code classification (Table 18A-I-B). Actual classification and expansion characteristic of the finished grade soil mix can only be provided in the final as-graded compaction report based on proper testing of foundation bearing and subgrade soils when rough finish grades are achieved. Foundation bearing and subgrade soils at finish pad grades should be additionally tested at the completion of rough grading to evaluate actual expansion characteristic of final soil mixture and confirm foundations and slab designs. Uniform bearing conditions should be constructed under the proposed buildings, structures and improvements. For this purpose, added removals of cut ground will be necessary in the case of cut-fill pads which expose formational rock or natural soils, so that uniform soil conditions are constructed throughout the buildings and improvement surfaces. Groundwater was encountered at the depth of 33 feet below the planned Lot 24 and 32 feet within the alluvial soils (B-3) feet along the easternmost portions of the site below the planned street improvements measured from the existing ground surfaces. Elsewhere at the site, groundwater was not encountered in our exploratory excavations to the depths explored. Natural groundwater conditions at the site occur at depth and is not expected to Impact project grading or long term stability of the developed property. However, the proper control of surface drainage and storm water is an important factor in the continued stability of the property. Ponding should not be allowed on graded surfaces, and over-watering of site vegetation should be avoided. Subsurface drains should be provided in stability fills and behind retaining walls(if any planned) as recommended below. Site grading and earthwork constructions will not impact the adjacent properties provided our recommendations are incorporated into the final designs and implemented during the construction phase. Appropriate setbacks shall be maintained, and temporary excavation slope constructions completed as recommended below.

Local groundwater conditions were found to be deep, and a thick section of overburden soils surcharges the impacted areas. Elsewhere over the majority of the property, groundwater was not recorded to the depths explored and formational units occur at the surface or at shallow to modest depths. Additionally, ground stabilization techniques using earth reinforcement Geogrid, and removal and recompaction of foundation bearing and subgrade soils are recommended in connection with the site development as specified below. Consequently, liquefaction of the locally saturated alluvial soils below the water table (primarily areas of boring B-3, see Plate 2) is not considered a major geotechnical concern at the project property. Liquefaction and secondary affects such as seismically induced settlements, lateral spreading and flow slides are considered unlikely to remote provided our ground stabilization and remedial grading recommendations specified in the following sections are followed. Loose to soft surface fill/alluvial deposits are potentially collapsible and compressible, and should be regraded as recommended below. VIII. RECOMMENDATIONS The following recommendations are consistent with the indicated geotechnical conditions at the project site and should be reflected in final plans and implemented during the construction phase. Added or modified recommendations may also be appropriate and can be provided at the final plan review phase: A. Remedial Grading and Earthworks The most effective method to mitigate upper loose to soft soils and accelerate compression of the underlying untreated deposits during the construction phase periods is remedial grading removal and recompaction techniques, and compacted fill surcharging as recommended below. All grading and earthworks should be completed in accordance with the Appendix Chapter 33 of the California Building Code, City of Carlsbad Grading Ordinances, the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction and the requirements of the following sections: ViNiii & MiDDLinoN RNCINI:UKINC., INC. • 2450 Amo l>.i,k Way • F,^condido,O.ilifoinia 92029-1229 • Phone (760) 74.VI214 I I I I I I I 1 I I i I I I I I I PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PAGE 18 26-LOT SUBDIVISION, CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 1. Clearing and Grubbing - Surface vegetation, trash, deleterious materials, and construction debris generated from the demolition of existing structures / improvements and other unsuitable materials should be removed from the areas proposed for grading, new fills, structures and improvements plus 10 feet outside the perimeter, or as directed in the field, and properly disposed of. Construction debris and site vegetation shall be allowed to contaminate the new site fills. All irrigation lines and existing leach lines, septic tanks, pipes and structures should be properly removed from the construction areas. Existing underground utilities in the construction areas should also be pot-holed, identified and marked priorto the actual work. Abandoned irrigation lines should be properiy capped and sealed off to prevent any future water infiltrations into the foundation bearing and subgrade soils. Voids created by the removals ofthe abandoned underground pipes, tanks and structures should be properly backfilled with compacted fills in accordance with the requirements of this report. The prepared ground should be inspected and approved by the project geotechnical engineer or his designated field representative prior to remedial grading work. 2. Removals and Over-excavations - Uniform and stable bearing soils conditions should be constructed under the planned new buildings and site improvements and limit potential fill soil settlements within tolerable limits as specified. For this purpose, removal and recompaction of the upper fills/alluvium to firm native ground or competent formation units where these deposits occur at shallower depths and removal and recompaction with ground stabilization techniques using earth reinforcement Geogrid placed at the bottom of over-excavations, should be considered. Approximate removal depths in the vicinity of individual exploratory excavations are summarized in Table 15 and depicted on the enclosed Plate 2 based upon site soil conditions and proposed grades. The tabulated values are typical and subject to field changes by the project geotechnical consultant based on actual field exposures. Locally deeper removals may be necessary and should be anticipated.

Bottom of all removals should be additionally prepared and recompacted to a minimum depth of 6 inches as directed in the field. 5. Firm native ground is defined as undisturbed natural exposures with in-place densities of 85% or greater as approved in the field. 6. In the case of deeper storm drain or utility trenches where the proposed inverts are below the recommended depths, removals should be further extended a minimum of 12 inches below ttie bottom of pipe (or pipe bedding) unless otherwise approved. 7. Exploratory trenches excavated in connection with our study at the indicated locations were backfilled with loose and uncompacted deposits. The loose/uncompacted backfill soils within these trenches shall also be re-excavated and placed back as properly compacted fills as a part of the project grading operations. 8. All grounds steeper than 5:1 receiving fills/backfills should be properly benched and keyed as directed in the field. 3. Ground Stabilization - Fills can only be placed over firm stable native and non-yielding ground (in-place densities of 85% or greater). Ground stabilization techniques using earth reinforcement Geogrid should be used in the areas of the site where yielding soft bottom of removals are exposed at the specified over-excavation depths. Removal and recompaction grading with ground stabilization techniques will also limit potential fill soil settlements within tolerable limits as specified. For this purpose, a layer of Tensar Geogrid BX-1100 (or greater from the same series) earth reinforcement should be placed at the impacted bottom of over- excavations prepared as directed in the field. Initial fill lifts should then be carefully placed over the Geogrid and compacted. Subsequent fill lifts can continue until design grades are achieved. Additional layers of Geogrid may also be necessary within the compacted fill mass as directed in the field, and should be anticipated. 4. Excavations Characteristics - Proposed cut excavations will approach 25 feet deep in the existing hill knob areas ofthe property underiain by Terrace Deposit units. The cuts and recommended undercuts are expected to be achieved with moderate efforts using larger bulldozers (Caterpillar D-8 or equal). Some hard units and cemented beds may also be locally encountered requiring added ripping and more concentrated efforts. However, difficult excavations or the need for special techniques is currently not anticipated. 5. Cut-Fill Transitions and Undercuts - Ground transition from excavated cut to compacted fills should not be permitted underneath the proposed structures and improvements. Transition pads will require special treatment. The cut portion of cut-fill pads plus 10 feet outside the perimeter, where possible and VINJE & MIDDLEJ ON ENGINEERING, INC. • 2450 Auro Park Way • Escondido, California 92029-1229 • Phone (760) 743-1214 PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PAGE 21 26-LOT SUBDIVISION, CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 as directed in the field, should be undercut to a sufficient depth to provide for a minimum of 3 feet of compacted fill mat below rough finish grades, or at least 12 inches of compacted fill beneath the deepest footing(s) whichever is more. In the roadways, driveway, pari<ing and on-grade slabs/improvement transition areas there should be a minimum of 12 inches of compacted soils below rough finish subgrade. Cut pad exposing loose to soft soils at final grades should also be undercut to a minimum depth of 3 feet (or 12 inches below the bottom of deepest footing whichever is more unless otherwise specified) and reconstructed to design grades with compacted fills as specified herein. , Temporary Construction Slopes - Excavations and removals adjacent to existing improvements and graded embankments should be performed under inspection of the project geotechnical engineer. Undermining exisfing improvements, underground ufilities to remain, and perimeter graded slopes should not be allowed by the removal operations. Temporary construcfion slopes should maintain adequate setbacks (minimum of 2 feet) from the toe of existing ascending slopes and adjacent improvements, as directed and approved in the field. Construction slopes, temporary excavations and trenching less than 3 feet high maximum may be constmcted at near vertical gradients. Temporary excavations and trenching greater than 3 feet and less than 12 feet high maximum should be laid back at 1:1 gradient unless otherwise specified or approved. Temporary slopes greater than 12 feet and less than 20 feet high maximum may be constructed at 1:1 within the lower 7 feet and laid back at 1 V4:1 gradient within the upper portions. The remaining wedge of soil should then be properly benched out and new fills/backfills tightly keyed-in as the backfilling progresses. Temporary trench and construction slopes greater than 3 feet maximum constructed at near vertical gradients will require shoring/trench shield support unless othenA/ise approved. All temporary construcfion slopes require continuous geotechnical inspections during the grading operafions. Additional recommendafions including revised slope gradients, setbacks and the need for temporary shoring/trench shield support should be given at that time as necessary. The project contractor shall also obtain appropriate permits, as needed, and conform to Cal-OSHA and local governing agencies' requirements for trenching/open excavations and safety of the workmen during construcfion.

Soli Properties and Select Grading - Soils generated from the excavafions of site exisfing fills, alluvium and formational rock units (map symbols af-Qal and Ts) will consist of marginal quality plastic silty to clayey deposits with high expansion potenfial which can be detrimental to structures and improvements, if they occur at or near finish grades. Plasfic silty to clayey soils also required added processing, mixing and moisture condifioning efforts in order to manufacture a uniform mixture suitable for reuse as site new compacted fills. However, better quality sandy earth deposits which generally work well as compact fills are expected from the excavations of site Terrace Deposits (map symbol Qt). Adverse effects of site highly expansive plasfic silty to clayey soils should be mitigated by selective burial of these deposits, placed a minimum of 4 feet below rough pad grades (or 12 inches below the deepest foofing, whichever is more) and a minimum of 10 feet away from the face of slopes within the fill mass. Better quality sandy soils available from the site Terrace Deposit excavafions should to stockpiled and selectively used within the upper pad grades and outer fill embankment slope surfaces. Improvement areas should be provided with a minimum 18 inches of better quality sandy soils. On-site plastic clayey soils should also not be used for wall or trench backfills. 8. Shrinkage and Import Soils - Based upon our analyses and experience with similar earth deposits, site soils may be expected to shrink approximately 10% to 20% on a volume basis when compacted to at least the minimum compaction levels specified herein. Import soils, if required to complete grading and achieve final pad grades, should be good quality sandy non-corrosive granular deposits (SM/SW) with very low expansion potenfial (100% passing %-inch sieve, more than 50% passing #4 sieve and less than 20% passing #200 sieve with expansion index less than 21). Import soils should be inspected, tested as necessary, and approved hy the project geotechnical engineer prior to delivery to the site. Sandy granular soils should also be considered for wall and trench backfills. 9. Fill Materials and Compaction - Soils generated from the site removals and over-excavations are considered suitable for reuse as site new fills provided they are processed, prepared and placed in accordance with the requirements ofthis report. Project fill soils should be clean deposits free of roots, stumps, vegetafion, deleterious matter, trash, demolition debris, and unsuitable materials as approved in the field by the project geotechnical consultant. Uniform bearing soil condifions should be constructed at the site by the remedial grading and earthwork operations. Site soils should be adequately processed, thoroughly mixed, moisture condifioned to slightly above VJN)E. &L MIDDLETON ENGINEERING, INI;. • 2450 Amo Park Way • Escondido, California 92029-1229 • Phone (760) 743-1214 PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION PAGE 23 26-LOT SUBDIVISION, CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 (approximately 2% for sandy soils and 3% to 5% for clayey soils) the optimum moisture levels as directed in the field, placed in thin (8 inches maximum) unifomi horizontal lifts and mechanically compacted to a minimum 90% ofthe corresponding laboratory maximum dry density below 3 feet from the rough finish grades, and minimum 95% ofthe corresponding laboratory maximum dry density within the upper 3 feet of final grades per ASTM D-1557, unless otherwise specified. 10. Permanent Graded Slopes - Project graded slopes are programmed for 2:1 orfiatter gradients maximum. Engineered graded slopes constructed at 2:1 or flatter gradients will be grossly stable with respect to deep seated and surficial failures for the anticipated design maximum vertical heights provided our recommendations are followed. Engineered slopes should be constructed as follows. Fill Slope Construction - Road embankment fills are planned at the site in connection with the private street improvements along the eastern margins. The planned fill slopes should be provided with a lower keyway. The keyway should maintain a minimum depth of 3 feet below the adjacent ground surface at the toe into with a minimum width of 12 feet as approved by the project geotechnical engineer or his designated representative. Deeper keyway depths may also be required based on actual exposures and should be anticipated. Loose to soft soils may be anticipated at the bottom of keyway excavations requiring mitigafion and stabilizafion. Stable bottom of keyway excavations can be achieved by placing a layer of Tensar Geogrid BX-1100 (or greater from the same series) earth reinforcement at the impacted bottom prepared as directed in the field. Inifial fill lifts should then be carefully placed over the Geogrid and compacted followed with subsequent lifts. All keyways should be heeled back a minimum of 2% into the hillside and inspected and approved by the project geotechnical engineer. Addifional level benches should be constructed into the natural hillside as the fill slope construcfion progresses. Fill slopes should also be compacted to a minimum 90% (or 95%) of the laboratory standard out to the slope face unless othenwise specified. Over-building and cutting back to the compacted core, or backrolling at a minimum of 4 feet vertical increments and "track-walking" at the completion of grading is recommended for site fill slope construcfion. Geotechnical engineering inspecfions and tesfing will be necessary to confirm adequate compaction levels within the fill slope face.

Small cut slopes are also proposed in the form of lowering the exisfing toe of fill embankments in the south and east perimeter areas to adjacent pad levels are planned at the site. The slopes planned at the rear of Lots 3-6 should be reconstructed as stabilization fills with a minimum bottom equipment-width of 15 feet extended at least 2 feet into the underiying competent formational rock as approved in the field. Temporary construction slopes for the stabilizafion fill should be no steeper than V2:1. The stability fill should then be reconstructied to design grades soon after by placing fill soils tighfiy keyed into the construction slopes as the fill placement progress. Recommended Typical Stabilizafion Fill slope is schematically depicted on the enclosed Plate 16. Alternatively, a retaining wall may be constructed at the base ofthe perimeter slopes as shown. All cut slopes should be inspected and approved by the project geotechnical consultant during the grading to further confirm stability. More specific or revised recommendations will be provided at that fime as necessary and should be anticipated. 11. Surface Drainage and Flood / Erosion Control - A crifical element to the continued stability ofthe graded building pads is adequate surface drainage and flood control. This can most effecfively be achieved by installation of appropriate flood and drainage control stmctures. Building pad surface run-off should be collected in approved drainage facilities and directed to selected locations in a controlled manner. Area drains should be installed. Surface and flood waters should not be allowed to impact site embankments, fills, structures and improvements, or penetrate into the underiying bearing soils. Storm water and surface run-off shall be diverted from entering the site. The finished slope should be planted soon after completion of grading. Unprotected slope faces will be subject to severe erosion and should not be allowed. Over-watering of the slope faces should also not be allowed. Only the amount of water to sustain vegetation should be provided. Temporary erosion control facilifies and silt fences should be installed during the construction phase periods and until landscaping is established as indicated and specified on the approved project erosion plans.

Flooding or jetting techniques as a means of compaction method shall not be allowed. * Pavement/improvements base and subgrade inspections - Prior to the placement of concrete or asphalt for proper moisture and specified compaction levels. B. Foundations and Interior Floor Slabs Proposed buildings may be supported on conventional concrete footings and slab- on-grade floor type foundafions. The following recommendations and geotechnical mitigation are consistent with silty sandy clay to clayey silty sand (SC/CL) foundation bearing and subgrade soils with low to high expansion potential (expansion index less than 131) anticipated at finish grade levels. Added or modified recommendafions may also be necessary and should be given at the time of foundation plan review phase. All foundations and floor slab recommendafions should also be further confinned and / or revised as necessary at the completion of rough grading based on the actual expansion characteristics ofthe foundation bearing and subgrade soils: 1. Perimeter and interior continuous strip foundations should be sized at least 15 inches wide and 24 inches deep for single and two-story structures. Exterior spread pad footings, if any, should be at least 30 inches square and 18 inches deep and structurally tied to the perimeter strip foofings with fie beams at least in one direction. Tie beams should be a minimum of 12 inches wide by 12 Inches deep. Footing depths are measured from the lowest adjacent ground surface, not including the sand/gravel layer beneath floor slabs.

Flagpole footings also need to be tied together if the footing depth is less than 4 feet below rough finish grade. 2. Continuous interior and exterior foundations should be reinforced with a minimum of four #5 reinforcing bars. Place 2-#5 bars 3 inches above the bottom of the footing and 2-#5 bars 3 inches below the top of the footing. Tie beams should also be reinforced with 2-#4 bars top and bottom and #3 ties at 30 inches on center maximum. Reinforcement details for spread pad footings should be provided by the project architect/structural engineer. 3. The slab subgrade and foundation bearing soils should not be allowed to dry priorto pouring the concrete, as additional ground preparations, moisture.re- conditioning and presaturation will be necessary as directed in the field. The required moisture content of the bearing soils is approximately 3% to 5% over the optimum moisture content to the depth of 24 inches below slab subgrade. Attempts should be made to maintain as-graded moisture contents in order to preclude the need for presaturation of the subgrade and bearing soils. 4. In the case of presaturation of the slab subgrade and/or non-monolithic pour (two-pour) system, dowel the slab to the footings using #4 reinforcing bars spaced 18 inches on center extending at least 20 inches into the footings and 20 inches into the slab. The dowels should be placed mid-height in the slab. Alternate the dowels each way for all interior footings. 5. After the footings are dug and cleaned, place the reinforcing steel and dowels and pour the footings. 6. This office should be notified to inspect the foundation trenches, and reinforcing prior to pouring concrete. 7. Once the concrete for the foofings has cured and underground utilities tested, place 4 inches of %-inch rock over the slab subgrade. Flood with water to the top of the %-inch rock, and allow the slab subgrade to soak unfil moisture testing indicates that the required moisture content is present. After the slab subgrade soils have soaked, notify this office and schedule for appropriate moisture testing. 8. When the required moisture content has been achieved, place a well- perfonning moisture barrier/vapor retardant (minimum 15-mil plastic) over the %-inch rock, and place 2 inches of clean sand (SE 30 or greater) on top of the plastic.

The dowels may be deleted, slab underiayment may consist of 2 inches of clean sand over a well perfonning moisture bamer/vapor retardant (minimum 15-mil plastic) over 2 inches of clean sand, and the footings and slab may be poured monolithically. This office should be notified to inspect the sand, slab thickness, and reinforcing prior to concrete pour. 9. All interior slabs should be a minimum of 5 inches in thickness reinforced with #4 reinforcing bars spaced 18 inches on center each way placed 1 Vi inches below the top of slab. 10. Interior slabs should be provided with "softcut" contraction/control joints consisting of sawcuts spaced 10 feet on center maximum each way. Cut as soon as the slab will support the weight of the saw, and operate without disturbing the final finish which is normally within 2 hours after final finish at each control joint location or 150 psi to 800 psi. The softcuts should be a minimum of %-inch in depth, but should not exceed 1-inch deep maximum. Anti-ravel skid plates should be used and replaced with each blade to avoid spalling and raveling. Avoid wheeled equipment across cuts for at least 24 hours. 11. Provide re-entrant corner reinforcement for all interior slabs. Re-entrant corners will depend on slab geometry and/or interior column locations. Plate 21 may be used as a general guideline. 12. Foundation trenches and slab subgrade soils should be inspected and tested for proper moisture and specified compaction levels and approved by the project geotechnical consultant prior to the placement of concrete. C. Post-tensioned / Structural Slab-on-Ground Foundations Post-tensioned or structural slab-on-ground foundations consistent with the anticipated silty to clayey expansive bearing soils may also be considered. Remedial grading and foundation bearing/slab subgrade soil preparations will remain the same and should be completed as specified. Post-tensioned or structural slab-on-ground foundation design should be completed by the project structural engineer or design/build contractor. The following are appropriate: 1. The foundation design should consider slabs with stiffening beams (ribbed foundafion).

The minimum foundation design and steel reinforcement provided herein are based on soil characteristics and are not intended to be in lieu of reinforcement necessary for structural considerations. 2. Adequate staking and grading control is a critical factor in properiy completing the recommended remedial and site grading operations. Grading control and staking should be provided by the project grading contractor or surveyor/civil engineer, and is beyond the geotechnical engineering services. Inadequate staking and/or lack of grading control may result in unnecessary additional grading which will increase construction costs. 3. Footings located on or adjacent to the top of slopes should be extended to a sufficient depth to provide a minimum horizontal distance of 7 feet or one-third of the slope height, whichever is greater (need not exceed 40 feet maximum) between the bottom edge of the footing and face of slope. This requirement applies to all improvements and structures including fences, posts, pools, spas, etc. Concrete and AC improvements should be provided with a thickened edge to satisfy this requirement. 4. Open or backfilled trenches parallel with a footing shall not be below a projected plane having a downward slope of 1-unit vertical to 2 units horizontal (50%) from a line 9 inches above the bottom edge ofthe foofing, and not closer than 18 inches from the face of such foofing. 5. Where pipes cross under-footings, the footings shall be specially designed. Pipe sleeves shall be provided where pipes cross through footings or footing walls, and sleeve clearances shall provide for possible footing settlement but not less than 1-inch all around the pipe. 6. Foundations where the surface ofthe ground slopes more than 1-unit vertical in 10 units horizontal (10% slope) shall be level or shall be stepped so that both top and bottom of such foundations are level. Individual steps in continuous footings shall not exceed 18 inches in height and the slope of a series of such steps shall not exceed 1-unit vertical to 2 units horizontal (50%) unless otherwise specified. The steps shall be detailed on the structural drawings. The local effects due to the discontinuity of the steps shall also be considered in the design of foundations as appropriate and applicable.

Trench backfill materials and compaction beneath pavements within the public right-of-way shall conform to the City of Carlsbad requirements. 9. On-site soils are expansive clayey deposits subject to continued swelling and shrinkage upon wetting and drying. Maintaining a uniform as-graded soil moisture during the post construcfion periods is essential in the future performance ofthe site structures and improvements. In no case should water be allowed to pond or accumulate adjacent to the improvements and structures. Due to sensitive expansive plastic clayey soils present at the site, construction of swimming pools, spas, patios, etc. should only be allowed based on a review and specific recommendations provided by the project geotechnical consultant. Planfing large trees near the building foundations should be avoided. 10. Site drainage over the finished pad surfaces should flow away from structures onto the street in a positive manner. Care should be taken during the construction, improvements, and fine grading phases not to disrupt the designed drainage patterns. Roof lines ofthe buildings should be provided with roof gutters. Roof water should be collected and directed away from the buildings and structures to a suitable locafion. 11. Final plans should refiect preliminary recommendations given in this report. Final foundations and grading plans may also be reviewed by the project geotechnical consultant for conformance with the requirements of the geotechnical investigation report outlined herein. More specific recommendations may be necessary and should be given when final grading and architectural/structural drawings are available. 12. All foundation trenches should be inspected to ensure adequate footing embedment and confirm competent bearing soils. Foundation and slab reinforcements should also be inspected and approved by the project geotechnical consultant.

The purpose of the slab reinforcement is to keep nonnal concrete shrinkage cracks closed tightly. The amount of concrete shrinkage can be minimized by reducing the amount of water in the mix. To keep shrinkage to a minimum the following should be considered: * Use the stiffest mix that can be handled and consolidated satisfactorily. * Use the largest maximum size of aggregate that is practical. For example, concrete made with %-inch maximum size aggregate usually requires about 40-lbs, more (neariy 5-gal.) water per cubic yard than concrete with 1-inch aggregate. * Cure the concrete as long as practical. The amount of slab reinforcement provided for conventional slab-on-grade construction considers that good quality concrete materials, proportioning, craftsmanship, and control tests where appropriate and applicable are provided. 14. A preconstruction meeting between representatives ofthis office, the property owner or planner, city inspector as well as the grading contractor/builder is recommended in order to discuss grading/construction details associated with site development. IX. LIMITATIONS The conclusions and recommendations provided herein have been based on available data obtained from the review of pertinent reports and plans, subsurface exploratory excavations as well as our experience with the soils and formational materials located in the general area. The materials encountered on the project site and utilized in our laboratory testing are believed representative of the total area; however, earth materials may vary in characteristics between excavations. Of necessity we must assume a certain degree of continuity between exploratory excavations and/or natural exposures. It is necessary, therefore, that all observations, conclusions, and recommendations be verified during the grading operation. In the event discrepancies are noted, we should be contacted immediately so that an inspection can be made and additional recommendations issued if required. ViNlE &.

CAMINO HILLS DRIVE, CARLSBAD JUNE 23, 2006 The recommendations made in this report are applicable to the site at the time this report was prepared. It is the responsibility of the owner/developer to ensure that these recommendations are carried out in the field. It is almost impossible to predict with certainty the future performance of a property. The future behavior of the site is also dependent on numerous unpredictable variables, such as earthquakes, rainfall, and on-site drainage patterns. The firm of VINJE & MIDDLETON ENGINEERING, INC. shall not be held responsible for changes to the physical conditions of the property such as addition of fill soils, added cut slopes, or changing drainage patterns which occur without our inspection or control. The property owner(s) should be aware that the development of cracks in all concrete surfaces such as floor slabs and exterior stucco are associated with normal concrete shrinkage during the curing process. These features depend chiefly upon the condition of concrete and weather conditions at the time of construction and do not reflect detrimental ground movement. Hairiine stucco cracks will often develop at window/door corners, and floor surface cracks up to Ve-inch wide in 20 feet may develop as a result of normal concrete shrinkage (according to the American Concrete Institute). This report should be considered valid for a period of one year and is subject to review by our firm following that time. If significant modificafions are made to your tentative development plan, especially with respect to the height and location of cut and fill slopes, this report must be presented to us for review and possible revision. This report is issued with the understanding that the owner or his representative is responsible to ensure that the information and recommendations are provided to the project architect/structural engineer so that they can be incorporated into the plans. Necessary steps shall be taken to ensure that the project general contractor and subcontractors carry out such recommendations during construction. The project soils engineer should be provided the opportunity for a general review of the project final design plans and specifications in order to ensure that the recommendations provided in this report are property interpreted and implemented. The project soils engineer should also be provided the opportunity to verify the foundations prior the placing of concrete. If the project soils engineer is not provided the opportunity of making these reviews, he can assume no responsibility for misinterpretation of his recommendations. Vinje & Middleton Engineering, Inc., warrants that this report has been prepared within the limits prescribed by our client with the usual thoroughness and competence of the engineering profession.
