CONSULTING ENGINEERS AND GEOLOGISTS July 2,2015 C5075 TO: Kaitie Groeneweg Planning Department CITY OF CUPERTINO 10300 Torre Avenue Cupertino,California 95014 SUBJECT: Geotechnical Inspection Summary and Scope of Work RE : Sun Property,Undocumented Grading 11801 Dorothy Ann Way At your request, we are providing you with a geotechnical summary of our recent inspection of the property at 11801 Dorothy Ann Way,in Cupertino California. We understand that recent undocumented grading was performed at the site. We have also prepared a scope of work that should be performed to remediate the observed undocumented grading at the property. SITE CONDITIONS 1. Driveway Entrance — We observed artificial fill, in an apparent non- engineered state, along the north side of the entrance drive. The fill extended . along the driveway for a distance of 190 feet, with an average width of 15 to 20 feet. The fill extended from the driveway to near the northern boundary fence where it appears to attain maximum depths of 2 to 2.5 feet. This fill soil was placed around multiple conifer trees near the boundary fence, and constrains concrete chunks and tree limbs. A straw_wattle has been placed along the toe of this fill to help reduce the amount of silt that makes its way into the adjacent concrete v-ditch. A parking area was recently created along the driveway and consists of an unreinforced concrete slab, approximately 3 inches thick, and measuring 50 feet long by 20 feet wide. This slab has large cracks along the southeastern portion of the slab. We estimate the total volume of this artificial fill to be approximately 100-150 cubic yards. Recommendations: We recommend that the artificial fill be removed from around the base of the trees in this area, be stripped of any tree .limbs, stumps, concrete blocks, or other deleterious materials, and replaced as landscape fill. The fill should have a slope angle of no .greater than 2:1 Northern California Office Central California Office Southern California Office 330 Village Lane 6417 Dogtown Road 550 St.Charles Drive,Suite 108 Los Gatos,CA 95030-7218 San Andreas,CA 95249-9640 Thousand Oaks,CA 93012-8074 408)354-5542•Fax(408)354-1852 209)736-4252•Fax(209)736-1212 805)497-7999•Fax(805)497-7933 www.cottonshires.com Kaitie Groeneweg July 2,2015 Page 2 C5075 horizontal to vertical), and should be covered with an erosion control blanket. We also recommend that the concrete parking slab be removed. Geotechnical Scope Geotechnical inspections should be performed during the reworking-of the fill and during fill replacement. This inspection would likely include 1 full day of inspection. Cost-$1,000 2. Barn Grading—A large volume fill was observed upslope from the barn and corral in the western portion of the property. This fill appears to have been recently placed and is near a line of trees that were recently removed. The artificial fill is non-engineered, primarily composed of vegetation clippings, soil and wood chips. This fill is approximately 90 feet long,40 feet wide, and up to approximately 6 feet thick. This fill has been placed on a slope that is inclined approximately 15-degrees, and has fill slopes that are much steeper than industry standard fill slopes.We estimate that approximately 350 to 500 cubic yards of fill/vegetation is in this area. Recommendations — We recommend that all of the recently placed fill be removed from the hillside, and the site restored to its pre-grading state. This fill removal should be inspected by the Project Geotechnical Consultant to assure that all material is removed from the site, and.original grade is restored. Geotechnical Scope—We anticipate the fill removal to take approximately 3 to 5 days, and geotechnical inspections should be performed during this _ grading operation. Cost-$5,000 3. Carriage House Retaining Wall—A 2-to 3-foot high masonry block retaining wall has recently be placed along the west and north sides of the Carriage House. The masonry block wall appears to have been placed in front of a pre-existing concrete wall. We did not observe evidence of distress to the older wall,or to the new wall. Recommendations — The Project Geotechnical Engineer should inspect this wall and provided recommendations,as deemed necessary. Geotechnical Scope — Retaining wall inspection and recommendations, as deemed necessary. Cost-$500 COTTON,SHIRES AND ASSOCIATES,INC. Kaitie Groeneweg July 2,2015 Page 3 C5075 4. Water Tank—We observed the water tank leaking along the east side. The leak is flowing onto older artificial fill that is settling. Recommendations—The Project Geotechnical Consultant should inspect the site and provide recommendations, as deemed appropriate, to help mitigate settlement and the potential for shallow landsliding resulting from uncontrolled leakage onto potentially unstable artificial fill. Geotechnical Scope — Site inspections and provide drainage recommendations. Cost-$1,500 5. Ranch Office (Atrium Structure) — An oversteepened fill slope is located along the western side of this structure,and appears to have buried some tree trunks. Recommendations — We recommend that the Project Geotechnical Consultant inspect this fill and provide recommendations to grade this slope to current industry standards, and remove and replace any non-engineered fill. Geotechnical Scope — Site inspection, provided grading recommendations, and observe remedial grading. Cost-$1,500 6. Culvert Near Carriage House—The culvert near the carriage house contains a moderate amount of debris near the intake above the driveway. Recommendations—The Project Geotechnical Consultant should inspect the drainage facilities in this area to assure they are in working order. Debris should be removed from the drainage channel to help reduce the likelihood of flow blockage. Geotechnical Scope — Site inspection' and provide recommendations, as deemed appropriate.
