/ A discussion of the interpretations and conclusi ons t+yAed fiom tie study. . (continued) ► A discussion of the measured engineering properties of collected soil samples, i.e., laboratory testing and the methodology used in the testing and subsequent results. Logs of the explorations summarizing subsurface conditions encountered, results of laboratory testing, and a plan indicating the location of the explorations (plotted on a base map provided by the civil engineer of record). Preparation of a geotechnical map indicating the location of the explorations -and all mapped geology and site interpretations (plotted on a base map Provided,bythe civil engineer of record). Preparation of numerous figures including geologic cross sections to convey the geological and geotechnical conditions at the site and for use in slope stability analyses. At this preliminary stage, we -anticipate approximately 22 cross sections will be necessary to review site slope stability and to provide design recommendations for grading. A discussion of site-specific geologic hazards, including the location of known faults near the site and the potential for fault rupture through the site, liquefaction, seismic settlement, land sliding, and earthquake - induced ground subsidence and/or flooding. + A probabilistic seismic hazard analysis will be performed to determine the peak horizontal ground accelerations (PHGA) for 10 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years (Maximum Probable Earthquake, MPE) seismic events at the site. 1 Evaluation of the potential for liquefaction and earthquake -induced settlement at the site based on 10 percent probability'of exceedan.6 in 50 years ground surface acceleration, from the data obtained from our 50 -foot boring, if applicable for the site. Liquefaction potential evaluation will be based on California Division of Mines and Geology (CDMG) Special Publication 117 (SP 117). / An estimate of the Seismic Parameters based on the 2007 California Building Code (CBC), Chapter 16, Section 1623. 1 Recommendations for site grading and earthwork including removal of compressible, expansive or unsuitable existing soils, as applicable, subgrade preparation, moisture conditioning of fill soils, placement and compaction of fill and backfill materials, and site drainage. ► Perform slope stability analysis to confirm the overall stability of the landslide, and to provide an evaluation of the stability of the proposed design localized cut/fill slopes.
