In addition to our supplemental Soil and Geologic Investigation dated January 8, 1990, the Revised Grading Plan for Rancho Santa Fe Road Realignment, prepared by Project Design Consultants, Scale: 1 inch equals 200 feet, undated, was also utilized for this analysis. The scope of this study included review of the Revised Grading Plan and interpolation of the previously performed borings, trenches, seismic refraction traverses and air-track borings for preliminary earthwork quantity evaluation. Cross-sections were developed within the proposed cut areas and are indicated on Figures 1 through 13. The Revised Grading Plan was utilized as a base map for the analysis and includes the locations of the cross-sections and is included as Figure 14. For referencing purposes, the Geologic Map previously presented in our January 8, 1990 report is attached as Figure 15. - 1 File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION The irregular, north-south elongate site comprises approximately 684 acres of essentially undeveloped land roughly centered on Rancho Santa Fe Road in Carlsbad, California. A short section of Questhaven Road and its intersection with Rancho Santa Fe Road lie within the extreme northeast corner of the site. Other than Rancho Santa Fe Road, with the associated truck bypass, and Questhaven Road, existing site improvements include the Stanley Mahr Reservoir (La Costa Dam), the Denk Reservoir (steel water tank), a 100-foot wide San Diego Gas and Electric easement with wood pole and lattice tower supported electric lines, a 200-foot wide San Diego Gas and Electric easement (empty), a 150-foot wide San Diego Gas and Electric easement with steel tower supported electric lines, and two buried water pipes associated with the reservoirs (Geologic Map, Figure 15). Topographically, the site is characterized by irregular steep to moderate ridge-and-canyon terrain, with trellis drainage along northward, westward and southward trending canyons. Drainage is uhimately accomplished by tributaries into San Marcos Creek along the northwestern site boundary, and by Encinitas Creek along the southern site boundary. Elevations range from a high approximately 990 feet Mean Sea Level (MSL) along the east- central property boundary to a low of approximately 235 feet MSL along San Marcos Creek along the northwest boundary of the site. Vegetation typically consists of thick chaparral -2- File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 and grasses through a majority of the site. The lower drainages feeding San Marcos Creek and Encinitas Creek, however, have mature to old-age native stands of Valley Oak and Sycamore. Running water was observed in San Marcos Creek as well as from springs in the major drainage along the extreme southwest boundary of the site. We understand that development as currently proposed will consist of the realignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road generally between the intersections with Mehose Avenue and La Costa Avenue. Grading of the road will produce large sheet graded areas with cut slopes approximately 60 feet high and fill slopes approximately 50 feet high at inclinations of approximately 2:1 (horizontal to vertical). A new water crossing structure is planned at San Marcos Creek. The bridge is anticipated to have a length of approximately 300 lineal feet. No structural design details or concepts were present at this time. SOIL AND GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS Stratigraphy Six surficial soil types and three geologic formations were encountered during our January 1990 investigation. The surficial deposits included undocumented fills, landslide debris, topsoils, slopewash, alluvium and terrace deposits. Geologic formations included the Jurassic-aged Santiago Peak Volcanics, the Cretaceous-aged Bonsall Tonalite and the Eocene-aged Delmar Formation. Each of the soil types and geologic units encountered are I File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 described below, and their approximate mapped extent is depicted on Figure 15, Geologic Map (Pocket). Santiago Peak Volcanics (Jsp) The Jurassic-aged Santiago Peak Volcanics, with the exception of the extreme northern approximately one-fourth of the site, comprise the majority of the underlying bedrock. These rocks were deposited as an altemating secession of volcanic flows, tuffs and breccias and typically have an andesite or dacite composition. Subsequently this sequence of rocks was folded, faulted and weakly metamorphosed. Where observed in test excavations, especially in the central portions of the site, this unit is highly fractured and faulted along northwest-to-southeast zones. Closely spaced parallel fractures and joints form "sheeted" zones containing colorful alteration and/or oxidation minerals such as limonite and hematite. The presence of cubic-shaped crystal-voids (pseudomorphs) and in some areas, cubic-shaped pyrite (iron sulfide) crystals, as well as other exotic minerals such as epidote, chlorite, and possible traces of copper minerals, suggests hydrothermal alteration (or, ancient hot spring activity). This feature is consistent with the historic copper mining operations in similar rock along northwest-southeast zones east of the site. Even though the majority of the Santiago Peak Volcanics appears to be highly fractured and altered, the zones typically have steeply dipping, tight clay-filled fractures. -4 - FUe No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 During the January 8,1990 investigation, 37 "air-track" pneumatic drill holes and 34 seismic lines were placed in proposed major cut areas within the Santiago Peak Volcanics generated data to aid in estimating the depth and general extent of hard rock materials requiring blasting. Drilling rates and depths were monitored and logged in graphical form as illustrated in Appendix A of the original investigation report. Interpretations of rock rippability are presented in Table 3 of this report. Our past observations of excavations and typical industry practice in the San Diego County area indicate that the results of pneumatic percussion-type drilling equipment can generally be correlated with rippability as follows: Drilling rates, using the pneumatic percussion or air-track equipment of less than approximately 60 seconds for 3 feet of drill penetration have generally been found to correlate to materials that are rippable. Drilling rates between 60 and 90 seconds for 3 feet of penetration are considered to be marginal in rippability. A drilling rate in excess of 90 seconds for 3 feet of penetration is usually an indication that blasting will probably be required to excavate the materials encountered efficiently. The seismic lines were previously performed along 100 foot traverses utilizing a 2-geophone Geometries Nimbus shallow refraction seismograph. Results for the seismic lines are also included in Table 4. In general, the results of the air-track borings indicated the potential for non-rippable "floater boulders," "ribs" and "knobs" below 20 feet throughout the major cuts. Some localized areas in the southeast portions and central portions are underlain by non-rippable materials at less than 10 feet in-depth. Rippable to marginally rippable material generally File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 occurs throughout cut areas, allowing moderately difficult rippability with a D9 Caterpillar tractor equipped with a single shank hydraulic ripper. Bonsall Tonalite (Kgr) Cretaceous-aged granitic rock correlated to the Bonsall Tonalite was encountered in the approximately northern one-quarter of the site. Test trenches and air-track borings also encountered a moderate to highly fractured and faulted structure similar to that described within the Santiago Peak Volcanics in the foregoing sections, as indicated in the January 8, 1990 report. Unlike the volcanic rocks, the granitic units exhibited a more random, rectilinear, fracture pattem, with a typically weathered, coarse granular texture at shallow to moderate depths. Observation and monitoring of 7 "air-track" pneumatic drill holes and 2 seismic lines in the proposed major cut areas within the Bonsall Tonalite generated data to aid in estimating the depth and general extent of hard rock materials requiring blasting. As was described in foregoing sections on volcanic rocks, interpretation on rock rippability are based on graphic and tabulated air-track results. In general, the results of the air-track borings indicated the potential for non-rippable "floater boulders," "ribs" and "knobs" below 15 feet throughout the major cuts. Some -6- File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 localized areas may be underlain by marginal to non-rippable materials at less than 5 foot depths. Delmar Formation (Td) The Eocene-aged Delmar Formation, consisting of stiff to very hard, light brown to olive silty to sandy claystones and sandstones was found to occur only in the lower drainage tributary to Encinitas Creek along the extreme southwestern edge of the site. As indicated on Figure 15, this unit crops out only along the base of a westward facing slope of the drainage between approximate elevations 250 and 270 MSL. Subsurface observation of test trenches along this slope indicated the presence of hard or dense, horizontally bedded claystones and sandstones. These beds, however, were overlain further northward by surficial terrace deposits and landslide debris. Local variations of bedding inclination within the Delmar Formation is a characteristic which could affect stability in natural or excavated slopes. Slope stabilization measures may be necessary if any cut slopes or fill keyways expose this unit as discussed in the January 8, 1990 investigation report. Terrace Deposits (Ot) Stream-deposited dense, dark reddish-brown sands and cobble-to-boulder conglomerates were previously observed to overlie Santiago Peak Volcanics and Delmar Formation in trenches and borings at elevations between approximately 360 and 420 feet MSL within the major south drainage along the extreme southwestern boundary of the site. In general. File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 these sediments exhibit good to excellent bearing characteristics, however, where they rest upon highly weathered and/or altered Santiago Peak Volcanics, or Delmar Formation claystones, they have been found to comprise ancient landslide debris, or may become unstable if undercut in excavations as discussed in the January 8, 1990 investigation. Alluvium (Qai) The alluvial deposits, as previously encountered, are typically composed of loose, porous, clay-sand-gradual mixtures with boulders that have accumulated along canyon bottoms. The maximum observed thickness was approximately 13 feet in the extreme southwest drainages, but up to 10 feet of alluvial soils were observed along San Marcos Creek at the extreme northern portion of the site. These sediments are generally poorly consolidated and susceptible to settlement when subjected to an increase in vertical loads as might results form the placement of fill or stmctures. Hence, development within areas containing alluvial deposits will require remedial grading. Landslide Debris and Surficial Landslide Debris (Qls and Qlsf) Two deep-seated landslides and two areas of surficial landslides were previously mapped within the site. The relatively thin, or surficial, landslides were encountered in shallow exploration trenches and were interpreted from stereoscopic aerial photographs and ground reconnaissance. -8- File No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 Both the deep and shallow landslides have generally occurred near, or along, the bottom of a southwest-draining tributary of Encinitas Creek in the southwestem portion of the site. The landslides have occurred within the weathered depositional contact-zone between thin remnants of the Eocene Dehnar Formation claystones, hydrothermally altered Jurassic Santiago Peak Volcanics and overlying Terrace Deposits. Surficial landslide materials, averaging approximately 10 feet thick typically consisted of very clayey gravel to boulder gravels, or gravelly clays that have failed along the Delmar Formation remnant claystones, or within very weathered, altered, Santiago Peak Volcanics. Portions of both the surficial and deeper landslide debris are relatively loose and possess the potential for future movement. Within the relatively thin surficial debris, complete removal and recompaction will be required where settlement-sensitive structures and/or fiUs are planned. The deeper landslides will also necessitate remedial grading in the form of removal and recompaction. Slopewash (Qsw) Slopewash and coUuvial soUs, as previously encountered, occur along the canyon side-slopes, at the base of natural slopes and along the head scarps of landslides. These deposits are often indistinguishable from aUuvium and thick topsoU deposits, therefore, only the thicker, or potentiaUy thicker areas have been mapped separately. The maximum observed thickness FUe No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 of these materials is on the order of 6 feet. In general, these deposits consist of poorly consolidated sandy clays to clayey sands and are potentiaUy compressible. Development within areas underlain by slopewash wiU require remedial grading. TopsoU (Unmapped) TopsoUs of irregular thicknesses ranging from 1 to 2 feet blanket the majority of the site. The topsoUs are characterized by dark brown to reddish-brown graveUy sUty sands to sandy clays. These soUs are both moderately to highly expansive, as weU as potentiaUy compressible. Recommendations with respect to the treatment of topsoUs have been included under the Conclusions and Recommendations section of the January 8,1990 report. FUl Material TOafi As indicated in our investigation report, several generations of engineered and undocumented fUl materials are present on the site. The largest-volume of documented fUl includes the materials constituting the La Costa Dam. The La Costa Dam was designed with an imperious clay core and a granular sheU. The spUlway and some section of the access roads were constmcted from fUl materials that were generated on-site. We anticipate that clay rich fUl materials with oversize rock and deleterious debris are present to maximum depth on the order of from 20 to 30 feet in the canyons immediately downstream from the La Costa Dam and extending westward beneath the existing Rancho 10 FUe No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 Santa Fe Road. The old highway alignment, including the existing truck by-pass, and other old fiU debris also constitute undocumented fiUs which wUl require remedial grading where roads, fiUs and settlement sensitive stmctures are planned. - 11 FUe No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS General 1. The findings and conclusions presented herein are based on our previous subsurface investigation report of January 8, 1990. This preliminary earthwork analysis is predicated on interpretation of previously generated field data and comparisons with the revised Grading Plan. For presentation purposes, the earthwork quantities have been presented as seven separate areas. Areas A through F (Figure 14). Unsuitable Surficial SoU Removal and Recompaction 2. The approximate depths of recommended removal of unsuitable surficial soUs including slopewash, aUuvium and landslide debris are presented in Table 1. Interpolation of removal depths was made between excavations and the areal extent of removals was "planimetered." DetaUs of the estimated quantities of removals are presented on Table 2. A total quantity of 998,000 cubic yards is estimated. MarginaUy- to Non-Rippable Rock 3. The approximate depths of rock rippability are presented on Table 3 Air-Track Rippability Interpretation and Table 4 Seismic Traverses. Cross-Sections A-A through CC-CC (Figures 1 through 13) were developed to interpolate the depths of marginaUy- to non-rippable rock between the seismic traverses and "air-track" borings. The rock surface depth presented on the cross-sections indicates an average depth 12- FUe No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 at which rock wUl likely requiring blasting. DetaUs of the quantity estimates of non- rippable rock are presented on Table 2. A total of 1,821,000 cubic yards is estimated. Rock DurabUity 4. As an adjunct to the earthwork quantity study, representative samples of metavolcanic rock (principal bedrock) were obtained and subjected to rock durability testing. The samples were coUected from surface outcrops and exposed cuts. The approximate sample locations are indicated on the Grading Plan, Figure 14. The results of these tests are presented in Table 5. In general, the test results provide a preliminary indication that the on-site rock is suitable for manufacturing Class II aggregate base material in regard to durability. Additional testing wiU be required during grading and rock crushing operations. Bulking and Shrinkage 5. The foUowing shrinkage and bulking factors are recommended for evaluating preliminary earthwork quantities. The factors presented were developed as indicated in our previous investigation report. SoU Unit Shrink/Bulk Factor AUuvium and topsoUs 10 to 15 percent shrink Weathered rippable bedrock 10 to 15 percent buUc Non-rippable bedrock 20 to 25 percent bulk 13 - FUe No. 04367-04-02 June 14, 1990 LIMITATIONS AND UNIFORMITY OF CONDITIONS 1.

Velocities of 45UU to 5500 fps indicate marginal ripping and blasting. Velocities greater than 5500 fps generaUy require pre-blasting. For trenching, materials wUh velocities less than 3800 fps are generaUy rippable depending upon the degree of fracturing and the presence or absence of boulders. Velocities between 3800 and 4300 fps generaUy indicate marginal ripping, and velocities greater than 4300 fps generaUy indicate non-rippable conditions.
