(Levelton) has prepared this geotechnical engineering assessment report for the above-referenced proposed pressure reducing valve (PRV) station and watermain upgrade at 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC. Our scope of work for this project was provided in our proposal PR dated 05 July Authorization to proceed with the scope of work as amended by Dayton & Knight was received via on 17 October The modified scope of work stipulated that the City of New Westminster would coordinate the field work to be carried out at the subject site. The scope of work was originally amended to include the review of a test pit excavation completed by others. It was subsequently modified to include the drilling of test holes in accordance with our original scope and fee. In summary, the scope of work included the original scope of work, plus the test pit excavation review. This report provides a summary of the subsurface conditions at the project location and geotechnical recommendations for the PRV station and watermain design and construction. Our scope of services did not include assessment of the soil or groundwater conditions with respect to environmental considerations.

64 Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV Page PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Dayton & Knight Ltd. drawing provided to Levelton (Drawing No ; Issue D) indicates that the proposed works are to occur on 1 st Street between 10 th Avenue (approximately located at Stn m, as illustrated on the above-referenced figure) and Ovens Avenue. Levelton understands that the proposed PRV station will consist of an at-grade building with plan dimensions of 6.1 m by 5.4 m. The proposed building will be located on the east side of 1 st Street (for discussion purposes, 1 st Street is assumed to run north to south) between Sinclair Avenue and Ovens Avenue, at Stn m. The site location is shown on the attached Figure 1. No information regarding proposed site grades or anticipated PRV station loads has been provided to us at the time this report was prepared. We understand that the invert of the watermain leading to the PRV station will be located approximately 1.85 m below grade. 3.0 SITE CONDITIONS 3.1 SURFICIAL GEOLOGY The Geological Survey of Canada surficial geology map covering New Westminster (Map 1484A) indicates that the soil conditions at the site consist of Vashon drift and Capilano sediments comprised of lodgment and minor flow till with lenses and interbeds of substratified glaciofluvial sand to gravel and lenses and interbeds of glaciolacustrine laminated stony silt, possibly overlain by glaciomarine and marine deposits of stony to stoneless silt loam to clay loam with minor sand and silt. The soil conditions actually encountered comprised fill and organic soils overlying native glaciolacustrine and fluvial sediments as discussed below. 3.2 SOIL CONDITIONS Levelton completed subsurface explorations along the alignment of the existing watermain located on 1 st Street and adjacent to the proposed PRV station on 29 October The explorations comprised four boreholes advanced to depths of between 3.0 m and 4.6 m at locations selected by the Dayton and Knight, in coordination with the City of New Westminster. Levelton also observed the subsurface soils exposed subsequent to the excavation of a test pit located near the proposed location of the PRV station on 12 October 2010 (TP10-01). However, we were unable to collect representative samples, nor monitor the progress of the test pit excavation. The approximate locations of the test holes are illustrated on the attached Figure 1. Detailed descriptions of the soil and groundwater conditions encountered are provided on the attached soil logs.

65 Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV Page 3 PRV Station Soil Conditions Based on AH10-01 and TP10-01, the following generalized soil profile is anticipated at the location of the PRV station and localized surrounding area: Sand and Gravel Fill, brown, loose to compact, overlying; Silty Sand Fill, grey, trace gravel, trace to some organics, loose compact, overlying; Sandy Silt Fill, brown, trace gravel, some organics, wood debris, soft to firm, overlying; Organic Silty Sand Fill, grey brown, rootlets, wood debris, loose to compact, overlying; Silt, grey, trace sand to sandy, trace gravel, firm to stiff. The fill material encountered at AH10-01 and observed at TP10-01 extended to a depth of approximately 3.2 m below the existing grade of 1 st Street. The fill was heterogeneous in nature and was observed to have estimated relative densities/consistencies varying between loose to compact for granular fill and soft to firm for fine-grained fill. Samples of the granular fill material had a moisture content generally within a range of 10 to 35 %. However, the organic silty sand fill had a moisture content of approximately 144%, due to its high organic content. Samples of the fine-grained fill material had moisture contents within a range of 35 to 45%. A layer of wood debris was encountered in both AH10-01 and TP10-01 at an approximate depth of 2.4 m below grade. The wood debris layer had an approximate thickness of 300 mm. Native firm to stiff silt with trace to some sand was encountered beneath the fill. Samples of the silt encountered at AH10-01 had moisture contents within the range of 25 to 45 %. AH10-1 terminated in stiff silt at a depth of 4.5 m. Watermain Soil Conditions Based on AH10-02 through AH10-04, the following generalized soil profile is anticipated along the alignment of the proposed watermain (approximately Stn m to Stn m): Heterogeneous Fill (Silty Sand/Silty Sand and Gravel/Sand/Silt), brown to grey brown, trace to some organics, loose to dense granular soils, soft fine-grained soils, overlying; Sandy Silt/Silty Sand, grey to grey brown, trace gravel, firm to very stiff sandy silt, compact to very dense silty sand. The fill material encountered at AH10-02 to AH10-04 varied between approximately 0.35 and 1.0 m in thickness at the auger hole locations. The thickness of fill appears to generally decrease away from the proposed location of the PRV station (north towards 10 th Avenue) and with increasing surface elevation. Samples of the granular fill material

66 Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV Page 4 had moisture contents within a range of approximately 5 to 12%. Samples of the finegrained fill material had a moisture content of approximately 70%, as a result of the organic content of this soil. The sandy silt/silty sand underlying the fill material had a moisture content within a range of approximately 10 to 30%. The compact to dense native silty sand soil was encountered at a depth of 0.75 m at AH10-4 in the sloping region of the proposed watermain alignment. 3.3 GROUNDWATER Groundwater seepage was encountered at a depth of approximately 1.8 m below grade in AH10-01 and was observed at a depth of approximately 2.7 m in TP10-01 at the time of pit excavation. No groundwater seepage was encountered in any of the other test holes while they remained open. PART B: DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 4.0 SITE PREPARATION PRV STATION It is understood that the PRV station will be grade supported. Site preparation in the area of the PRV station building footprint should consist of excavation to the design subgrade elevation, followed by nominal subgrade preparation to provide suitable and uniform support conditions for a shallow mat or footing foundation and slab-on-grade. It is expected that the exposed subgrade at foundation grade will consist of loose to compact silty sand fill material. Soft or moisture-softened subgrade should be overexcavated to a maximum depth of 600 mm below foundation level and replaced with engineered fill as required by the Geotechnical Engineer. Levelton should review the excavated subgrade prior to placement of any engineered fill or foundation concrete. Fill required to re-establish the grade of the proposed PRV station foundation should consist of engineered fill in accordance with Section 6.0 of this report. Engineered fill should extend horizontally past the foundation a distance at least equal to the thickness of the engineered fill placed below the foundation. At this stage, it is anticipated that groundwater seepage entering excavation for construction of the PRV station could be adequately controlled by using sumps and pumping. Foundation subgrades should be kept free of standing water. WATERMAIN Site preparation along the alignment of the watermain leading to the PRV station should consist of excavation to the invert elevation of the watermain. From the drawing provided by Dayton & Knight, this elevation is anticipated to be approximately 1.85 m below the existing grade of 1 st Street.

67 Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV Page 5 Based on the soil conditions encountered at AH10-2 through AH10-04, subgrade between approximately Stn m and Stn m (see Dayton & Knight Drawing No ; Issue D) is anticipated to consist of firm to very stiff sandy silt or compact to dense silty sand. Where the exposed trench subgrade consists of granular material, we recommend that it be surficially compacted with vibratory equipment prior to placement of any bedding and pipe surround material. These subgrades are considered appropriate for the placement of pipe bedding material in accordance with the recommendations of Section 10.0 below. Subgrade at the invert elevation of the watermain near the PRV station may consist of heterogeneous fill material. Where soft or organic fill material is encountered at the watermain invert elevation, the trench base should be over-excavated a minimum depth of 300 mm to allow for placement of additional pipe bedding in accordance with Section 10.0 of this report. A non-woven geotextile separator such as Propex 1071 or Geotechnical Engineer approved equivalent should be placed on the over-excavated subgrade, if soft soils are present at that elevation. Due to the expected heterogeneity in the subgrade material along the alignment of the watermain, it is recommended that the trench subgrade be reviewed by the Geotechnical Engineer, prior to placement of pipe bedding material, to identify areas where overexcavation and placement of additional pipe bedding (and possibly a geotextile separator) is required. It is anticipated that groundwater seepage entering the excavation along the alignment of the watermain could be adequately controlled by using sumps and pumping. 5.0 TEMPORARY EXCAVATIONS Temporary excavations up to 1.2 m below grade could be cut at near vertical. The side slopes of unsupported excavations greater than 1.2 m in depth should be sloped at a maximum inclination of 0.75H:1V (horizontal:vertical). Steeper excavations should be shored or approved in writing by a Geotechnical Engineer, prior to worker entry. In general, all temporary excavations should conform to Work Safe BC requirements or suitable trench shoring cages should be utilized. It is recommended that temporary excavation slopes be protected from erosion by surface water runoff by covering them with polyethylene sheeting securely fastened at the top and toe of the slope. 6.0 ENGINEERED FILL Engineered fill used to develop site grades at the location of the proposed PRV station should consist of imported granular material such as a free-draining 75 mm minus pit-run sand and gravel with less than 5% fines (material passing the mm sieve) by weight, or an alternate granular material reviewed and approved by Levelton prior to use. Engineered fill should be placed in discrete lifts a maximum of 300 mm in thickness and should be compacted to not less than 100% of the material s Standard Proctor Maximum

68 Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV Page 6 Dry Density (SPMDD). Engineered fill below foundations should extend horizontally beyond the footing edges a distance at least equal to the thickness of fill below the foundations. In-place soil density testing should be conducted on the fill as it is being placed to confirm that adequate compaction is achieved. It is our opinion that the existing fill material encountered at the boreholes and TP10-01 will not generally be suitable for re-use as engineered fill at the PRV site due to its heterogeneous nature, moisture content, and organic content. Soils that contain organic matter are not considered suitable for use as engineered fill. 7.0 FOUNDATION DESIGN It is our opinion that the foundation for the proposed PRV station can consist of strip and pad footings bearing on compacted engineered fill placed over Geotechnical Engineer approved subgrade. Foundations can be designed based on a serviceability limit state (SLS) soil bearing resistance of 75 kpa and a factored ultimate limit state (ULS) soil bearing resistance of 125 kpa. The underside of foundations should be located at least 450 mm below finished interior and exterior grade for frost protection and confinement purposes. The Geotechnical Engineer should review the foundation subgrade prior to construction of the foundation formwork. It is judged that total post-construction settlement of footings placed in accordance with the recommendations provided in this report will not exceed 25 mm during the design life of the building. 8.0 SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS The site soils at the location of the PRV station generally consist of heterogeneous fill (sand and gravel/silty sand/sandy silt/organic silty sand/wood debris) underlain by firm to stiff silt. Consequently, it is our opinion that seismic design of the structure may be based on Site Class E conditions, in accordance with Division B, Part 4, Section of the 2006 British Columbia Building Code. It is our opinion that the site soils at the PRV station would be resistant to liquefaction during a design magnitude seismic event (2% probability of exceedence in 50 years). 9.0 SLAB-ON-GRADE The interior slab-on-grade for the PRV station should be placed on a minimum 100 mm thick drainage layer comprised of 19 mm minus crushed gravel or well-graded, clean (less than 5% passing the mm sieve) sand compacted to not less than 95% of the material s SPMDD. Polyethylene sheeting should be provided below the interior slabon-grade to inhibit moisture migration through the concrete.

69 Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1 st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV Page PIPE BEDDING AND TRENCH BACKFILL We recommend that pipe bedding material conform to the gradation for Type 1 Granular Pipe Bedding and Surround Material contained in the Master Municipal Construction Documents (MMCD) Volume II, or City of New Westminster requirements. The pipe bedding should be placed in discrete lifts a maximum of 300 mm in thickness and be compacted with vibratory equipment to not less than 95% of the material s Modified Proctor Maximum Dry Density (MPMDD). Trench backfill should consist of well-graded granular material with a maximum of 5% fines in accordance with MMCD Volume II. Trench backfill should be placed in discrete lifts a maximum of 300 mm in thickness and be compacted to not less than 95% of the material s MPMDD, as confirmed by in-place soil density tests. The soils encountered at the boreholes contained variable organic content and significant fines content, and may be difficult to re-compact, particularly if placed in wet conditions. Consequently, the excavated in-situ soils are considered to be unsuitable for re-use as trench backfill in the roadway. Should the contractor elect to attempt to use some of the excavated material as backfill, full-time geotechnical review of the material selection, placement, and compaction is recommended GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING REVIEW It is recommended that Levelton review the following aspects of construction: Stripped subgrade; Engineered fill materials; Pipe bedding materials; Placement and compaction of engineered fill and pipe bedding; Soils at PRV station foundation grade; Underslab fill material; Foundation backfill material; Trench backfill material; and Placement and compaction of foundation backfill and trench backfill CLOSURE This geotechnical engineering assessment report has been prepared by Levelton Consultants Ltd. exclusively for Dayton & Knight Ltd. and their appointed agents. The preliminary opinions and recommendations provided in this report reflect our judgement in light of the information available to us at the time that it was prepared.
