Newport Beach, California
INTRODUCTION
This report presents findings and conclusions of a preliminary geotechnical investigation
undertaken to relate onsite and certain regional geotechnical conditions to the construction of a
new single-family residence on the subject property. Analyses for this investigation are based
upon a review of conceptual architectural plans for the property prepared by Toblesky Greene
Architects.
The conclusions and recommendations of this report are considered preliminary due to the
absence of finalized foundation and grading plans, the formulation of which are partially
dependent upon the recommendations presented herein.
Scope of Investigation
The investigation included the following:
1.Analysis of pertinent reports, maps, aerial photographs, historic laboratory and boring
data, and published literature pertaining to the site and nearby areas, as well as project
plans, in order to relate geotechnical conditions to proposed construction.
2.Advance one cone penetration test (CPT) to approximately 12.5 feet in order to further
evaluate the geotechnical conditions and to perform a liquefaction analysis.
3.Analyses of data and the preparation of this geotechnical report presenting conclusions
and recommendations for site development in accordance with the 2019 California
Building Code and the City of Newport Beach Building Code Policies. This report is

Site Description
The generally rectangular-shaped property fronts 30± feet along Marcus Avenue and extends
easterly 100.0± feet to the rear property boundary along the Rivo Alto Waterway. The lot is
generally flat with a gradient sloping from a high point of 8.5 feet on the northwest side yard
(NAVD88) to a low point of 7.5 feet in the southern portion of the lot. The existing 0.07-acre
property is improved with a two-story wood-framed structure and perimeter hardscape. The
home is separated from a similar, two-story residences on it’s southeast and northwest sides.
Proposed Development
Based on a review of conceptual plans prepared by Toblesky Green Architects, proposed site
development generally consists of the demolition of the existing residence to facilitate
construction of a new two-story, single-family residence of wood and steel frame structure,
and exterior hardscaping. The new residence is anticipated to be supported on a stiffened mat
foundation system constructed in new engineered fill as recommended herein. The proposed
residence first floor elevation will be raised approximately 18 inches above current grades to
an elevation of 10 feet. No significant retaining walls are anticipated at this time.
GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS
Geologic Setting
The property is located on Newport Isle adjacent to Newport Bay as depicted on the USGS
Geologic Index Map, Figure 1. Review of old topographic maps indicates that prior to
dredging of Newport Bay, the site location was a low lying, likely intertidal area adjacent to a
shallow channel of the natural bay. The site is underlain at a depth in excess of 50 feet by an
accumulation of intertidal bay and beach deposits and subsequent dredge fill placed during
land reclamation. A younger generation of fill from construction of the existing roads and
residence may underlie portions of the property at the surface.

Report No: 21-9054
Page No: 3
Earth Materials
The bedrock underlying the property at significant depth is assigned to strata of the Monterey
Formation on the basis of regional mapping. Where exposed offsite on local bluffs, strata of
the Monterey consists of weakly cemented sequences of siltstone and claystone forming a
laminated to thinly bedded shale. This material was not observed during our exploration and
is not anticipated to be encountered during construction at the site.
Based upon nearby studies, review of regional geologic mapping, and our onsite investigation
the site is underlain at depth by intertidal bay deposits, which are successively overlain by
dredge fill. Intertidal bay deposits generally consist of about 18-inches of very dark gray,
variably silty and clayey bay mud, overlying saturated, medium dense, fine to medium
quartzo-feldspathic sand with some organic matter. Dredge fill overlies the intertidal
bay/beach deposits and consists of 5.5± feet of tan light-brown, moist to very moist, loose to
medium dense, fine to medium grained quartzo-feldspathic sand with many shell fragments.
Following demolition, the pad will be raised and the upper 2± feet of fill below existing grade
is considered unsuitable in its present form to support new structural loads but may be
removed and recompacted to produce acceptable engineered fill. Onsite materials are non-
expansive on the basis of visual classification, and are anticipated to be corrosive in the
marine environment.
Groundwater
Exploratory testing onsite and on nearby properties encountered groundwater at depth of 5+
feet below ground surface (approximately elevation 3+ feet (NAVD88)). This groundwater
level is anticipated to experience some fluctuation in response to the tidal cycle and/or during
periods of heavy rain. The design groundwater level is recommended to be equal to an
elevation of 3.5 ± feet (NAVD88).
Surface Runoff and Street Flooding
Proposed development will modify and may increase post-development surficial discharge,
which must be controlled by appropriate civil engineering design. Localized street flooding
associated with heavy rains and high tides has been a recurrent phenomenon in the Newport
Bay communities. The potential for street flooding affecting proposed development should be
evaluated by the project civil engineer.
Seismic Considerations
Published Studies
One of the principals of seismic analyses and prediction is the premise that earthquakes are
more likely to occur on geologically younger faults, and less likely to occur on older faults.
For many years studies have described faults with Holocene movement (within the last 11,700
years) as “Active”, and faults with documented Pleistocene movement (within the last 1.6
million years) and with undetermined Holocene movement as “Potentially Active”.
PA2021-300
December 15, 2021 Project No: 72615-00
Report No: 21-9054
Page No: 4
Informally, many studies have described faults documented to have no Holocene movement as
“Inactive”. Recent geologic and seismic publications are attempting to clarify the
nomenclature describing faults to more accurately represent the potential affects from
earthquakes.
Reports by the California Division of Mines and Geology indicate faults with documented
Holocene or Historic (within the last 200 years) movement should be considered Active.
However, Potentially Active faults are more appropriately characterized in terms of the last
period of documented movement. The Fault Activity Map of California (Jennings, C.W.;
2010) defines three categories for onshore Potentially Active faults. The categories are
associated with the time of the last displacement evidenced on a given fault and are
summarized in Table 1.
Table 1, Definitions of Fault Activity in California
Activity Category Recency of Movement
Active Historic Within the last 200 years
Holocene Within the last 11,700 years
Potentially Active
Late Quaternary Within the last 700,000 years
Quaternary Within the last 1.6 million years
Pre-Quaternary Before the last 1.6 million years
It is important to note these categories embrace all Pre-Holocene faults as Potentially Active,
and provide no methodology to designate a given fault as “Inactive”. Although the likelihood
of an earthquake or movement to occur on a given fault significantly decreases with inactivity
over geologic time, the potential for such events to occur on any fault cannot be eliminated
within the current level of understanding.
Local and Regional Faults
The closest published active fault to the site is the offshore extension of the Newport-
Inglewood Fault Zone, approximately 0.5 miles northwest, (CGS, 2005). Other active faults
in the vicinity of the site include the San Joaquin Hills, approximately 5.8 miles northeast, the
Palos Verdes Fault, approximately 12.6 miles to the west-northwest; the Coronado Bank Fault,
approximately 23.6 miles southwest; the Elsinore Fault, approximately 24.3 miles to the east,
and the San Andreas Fault, approximately 47.8 miles to the northeast.
The California Geological Survey updated the Fault Parameters and Earthquake Catalog for
the probabilistic Seismic Hazards Maps in 2002. This update included the addition of the San
Joaquin Hills blind thrust fault indicated above, theorized to exist from Newport Beach to
Dana Point, and ramping up inland to the Irvine area, and essentially underlying the site.
Earthquakes of Magnitude 7.0+ are presently postulated for this structure. With the Newport-
Inglewood fault’s location at approximately 1.1 miles distant, and a calculated possible
magnitude 7.2 event, it is calculated as the most significant seismic source to affect the subject
site.

Historic Ground Motion Analyses
The USGS earthquake catalog indicates that the maximum historic site acceleration from 1800
to 2020 was approximately 0.3g and occurred during the magnitude 6.3 Long Beach
Earthquake 3.6 miles from the site on March 11, 1933.
It is noted that the estimation of historic peak ground acceleration presented above is provided
for the interest of the client and is required by local (City or County) review agencies. The
value derived is not directly utilized in structural design of residential structures. Seismic
parameters for use by the structural engineer in accordance with 2019 California Building
Code in design of the proposed structure(s) are presented in the recommendations portion of
this report.
Site Classification for Seismic Design
For the purposes of determining seismic design parameters provided in the Recommendations
portion of this report pertaining to the new structures, the upper one hundred feet of soil
underlying the subject site has been classified in accordance with Section 1613.2.2 of the 2019
CBC and Section 20.1 of ASCE 7-16. Although the soils underlying the site are liquefiable
and defined as site class F per the 2019 CBC, requiring a site-response analysis, proposed new
structures are anticipated to have fundamental periods of vibration less than 0.5 seconds (to be
verified by the structural engineer). As such, Section 20.3.1 in ASCE 7-16 provides an
exception that indicates such liquefiable sites may be classified in accordance with Tables
11.4-1 and 11.4-2 without performing a site-specific evaluation.
Given the exception and the results of our onsite and nearby field investigations, which
indicate the site is predominantly underlain by dredge fill and sedimentary deposits with
average N-values between 15 and 50, seismic design criteria may be calculated using a site
classification of D. However, the Site Class remains F.
Appraisal of Liquefaction Potential
Review of the Seismic Hazard Zones Map for the Newport Beach Quadrangle (California
Division of Mines & Geology, 1998) identifies the site and all of the Newport/Balboa
peninsula and harbor within a zone of required investigation for liquefaction. In accordance
with City of Newport Beach Building Code Policies CBC-1803.5 and 1803.5.11-12, our office
has performed an analysis for liquefaction potential based on the cone penetration test data
collected during our onsite investigation.
Based on the results of our analysis presented in Appendix C, which indicates liquefaction
settlement within the zone 10 feet below the proposed foundation level is less than 1-inch, a
stiffened foundation system or mat slab designed in accordance with the City’s “Shallow
Mitigation Methods” is recommended.

Tsunami Appraisal
No specific tsunami analysis has been undertaken in this investigation. However, the
“Evaluation of Tsunami Risk to Southern California Coastal Cities” (Legg et al, 2003)
provides a framework for understanding the impact of locally seismic and/or landslide
generated tsunamis. Based on the results of this work, typical maximum run-up heights were
estimated to vary from 1 to 1.5 meters in the Newport Beach area. Because of unknown
bathymetry on wavefield interactions and irregular coastal configurations, actual maximum
run-up heights could range from 2 meters, or more.
Secondary Seismic Hazards
Review of the Seismic Hazards Zones Map (California Division of Mines and Geology, 1998)
for the Newport Beach Quadrangle, Figure 2, indicates this lot is not located within a “zone of
required investigation” for earthquake induced landslides, but is located in a liquefaction
hazard zone. Please refer to the Appraisal of Liquefaction Potential above for more
information.
Other secondary seismic hazards can include deep rupture, shallow ground cracking, and
tsunami inundation. With the absence of active faulting onsite, the potential for deep fault
rupture is not present. The potential for shallow ground cracking to occur during an
earthquake is a possibility at any site but does not pose a significant hazard to site
development. Regarding tsunami inundation, please refer to the appropriate section above for
more information.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The proposed development at the subject site is considered geotechnically feasible
provided recommendations herein are integrated into design, construction, and long-
term maintenance. Proposed construction should not affect or be affected by adjacent
properties providing appropriate construction methods and care is utilized during
construction.
2. The property is underlain at a significant depth by bedrock strata of the Monterey
Formation, which are successively overlain by tidal bay/beach deposits, and 5± feet of
dredge fill.
3. The upper 2± feet of existing dredge fill is considered unsuitable in its present form to
support new foundations but may be removed and recompacted to produce acceptable
engineered fill, pending observation by a licensed geologist.
4. Granular onsite soils are non-expansive and are expected to be corrosive in the marine
environment. Concrete in a marine environment should consider a moderate sulfate
exposure for design purposes. The concrete mix should be designed by a concrete
expert in consideration of structural requirements. The appropriate exposure should be
evaluated by the architect and/or structural engineer.

Page No: 7
5. No active faults are known to transect the site and therefore the site is not expected to
be adversely affected by surface rupturing. It will, however, be affected by ground
motions from earthquakes during the design life of the residence.
6. Liquefaction analysis performed in accordance with City Building Code Policies CBC-
1803.5 and 1803.5.11-12 indicates seismic settlement in the zone 10 feet below the
proposed foundation level is less than 1-inch. Therefore, a mat slab or stiffened
foundation system designed in accordance with the City’s “Shallow Mitigation
Methods” is recommended.
7. Groundwater was recorded at a depth of 5+ feet below ground surface. Groundwater
will fluctuate based on tidal conditions and other factors, and likely will be a design
and construction constraint depending on the depth of improvements and excavations.
The design groundwater level is recommended to be 3.5± feet (NAVD88).
8. The potential for street flooding to affect the residence during its lifetime is deferred to
the project civil engineer.
9. Surface discharge onto or off the site should be appropriately controlled with proper
engineering design and site grading and are deferred to the project civil engineer.
10. The residence should be founded in competent recompacted engineered backfill
utilizing a mat slab or stiffened foundation system.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Site Preparation and Grading
1. General
Grading is anticipated to consist of remedial over-excavation and minor export of soils
to construct proposed building pad and foundation subgrades. Grading should be
performed in accordance with the recommendations herein and the Standard Grading
Specifications in Appendix D. Processing, over-excavation and re-compaction should
be observed, tested and approved in writing by a representative of this firm.
2. Remedial Grading and Subgrade Preparation
Remedial grading is recommended to include removal and re-compaction of existing
loose dredge fill to a depth of at least 2 feet below existing site grades. Locally deeper
removals may be required pending field review by the geologist. Imported fill material
is anticipated to achieve the proposed pad grades.
As groundwater may be a construction nuisance during high tide levels, saturated
conditions may be encountered during over-excavation grading. In this instance,
subgrade stabilization, such as the placement of geotextile filter fabric, crushed rock,
PA2021-300
December 15, 2021 Project No: 72615-00
Report No: 21-9054
Page No: 8
and another layer of filter fabric should be anticipated prior to placement of backfill.
Typically, a crushed rock layer of at least 1 foot is adequate.
3. Removal of Existing Improvements
Existing vegetation, organic materials and/or construction and demolition debris
should be removed and disposed of offsite.
4. Compaction Standard
Onsite soil materials are anticipated to be suitable for re-use as compacted fill provided
they are free of rubble and debris. Materials should be placed at 120 percent of
optimum moisture content and compacted under the observation and testing of the soil
engineer to at least 90 percent of the maximum dry density as evaluated by ASTM D
1557.
5. Temporary Construction Slopes
Temporary slopes exposing onsite materials should be cut in accordance with
Cal/OSHA Regulations. It is anticipated that the onsite soils may be classified as Type
C soil, and temporary cuts of 1.5:1 (horizontal: vertical) may be appropriate; however,
the material exposed in temporary excavations should be evaluated by the contractor
during construction.
The safety of temporary construction slopes is deferred to the general contractor, who
should implement the safety practices as defined in Section 1541, Subchapter 4, of
Cal/OSHA T8 Regulations (2006).
Shoring should be anticipated where space limitations preclude temporary slope
layback, or in any location where onsite personnel may be in close proximity to open
excavations. Shoring also should be anticipated where wet materials exist.
Foundation Design Parameters
Due to the potential for liquefaction at the site, we recommend that a stiffened foundation or
mat slab be used for the proposed structure in accordance with the City of Newport Beach
Building Code Policy No. CBC-1803.5.11-12. Such a foundation system should be founded
on properly compacted fill derived from onsite materials.
1. Bearing Capacity and Settlement
The allowable bearing capacity for a mat slab placed on approved recompacted fill with
a thickness of 12 inches or more is 2000 pounds per square foot. Foundation settlement
from structural loading is estimated to be ¾ inch total and ½ inch differential over a
distance of 20 feet. Foundation settlement should occur mostly during construction.
PA2021-300
December 15, 2021 Project No: 72615-00
Report No: 21-9054
Page No: 9
2. Lateral Loads
Lateral loads may be resisted by passive pressure forces and friction acting on the
bottom of foundations. Passive pressure may be computed from an equivalent fluid
density of 150 pounds per cubic foot above the groundwater table, not to exceed 1,500
pounds per square foot. A coefficient of friction of 0.25 may be used in computing the
frictional resistance. These values may be combined without reduction.
3. Reinforcement
Foundations and slabs should be reinforced in conformance with the requirements of the
structural engineer. From a geotechnical viewpoint, a minimum of two No. 5 bars
should be incorporated at the top and bottom of continuous footings in order to reduce
the potential for cracking during seismic shaking or as a result of subsurface
imperfections.
Monitoring
Complete documentation of the pre- and post-construction conditions of adjacent
improvements should be undertaken. In addition, monitoring of ground movement and
construction vibrations should be made as an integral part of the construction. Such
documentation should include:
1. A sufficient number of photographs to establish the existing condition of nearby
structures.
2. Establishment of a sufficient number of ground elevation control stations so that
potential subsidence or heave associated with grading and lateral movement can be
detected. Monitoring of such points should be accomplished during all grading,
shoring (if any) and excavation work, and continued until retaining walls are backfilled
or site grading is complete.
3. Ground vibration monitoring during construction to capture peak particle velocities of
drilling, tracking, and excavation activities is recommended. Vibration monitors
should be Sigicom model C-22 tri-axial geophones or equivalent.
Hardscape Design and Construction
Hardscape improvements may utilize conventional foundations embedded in recompacted fill
designed in accordance with the foundation recommendations presented above. Foundations
should have a design depth of 18 inches or more.
Concrete flatwork should be divided into as nearly square panels as possible. Joints should be
provided at maximum 6 feet intervals to give articulation to the concrete panels. Landscaping
and planters adjacent to concrete flatwork should be designed in such a manner as to direct
drainage away from concrete areas to approved outlets. Planters located adjacent to principal
foundation elements should be sealed and drained.
PA2021-300
December 15, 2021 Project No: 72615-00
Report No: 21-9054
Page No: 10
Flatwork elements should be a minimum 5 inches thick (actual) and reinforced with No. 4 bars
spaced at 16 inches on center both ways.
Seismic Design
Based on the geotechnical data and site parameters, the following is provided by the USGS
(ASCE 7-16) to satisfy the 2019 CBC design criteria:

Finished Grade and Surface Drainage
Finished grades should be designed and constructed so that no water ponds in the vicinity of
footings. Drainage design in accordance with the 2019 California Building Code, Section
1804.4 is recommended. Roofs should be guttered and discharge conducted away from the
house in a non-erosive manner as specified by the project civil engineer or landscape architect.
Proper interception and disposal of all onsite surface discharge is presumed to be a matter of
civil engineering or landscape architectural design.
Concrete
On-site concrete may be exposed to seawater. It is recommended that a concrete expert be
retained to design an appropriate concrete mix to address the structural and exposure
requirements. In lieu of retaining a concrete expert, it is recommended that the 2019
California Building Code, Section 1904.1 be utilized, which refers to ACI 318, Table 4.3. The
appropriate exposure should be evaluated by the architect and/or structural engineer.

Observation and Testing
The 2019 California Building Code, Section 1705.6 requires geotechnical observation and
testing during construction to verify proper removal of unsuitable materials, that foundation
excavations are clean and founded in competent material, to test for proper moisture content
and proper degree of compaction of fill, to test and observe placement of wall and trench
backfill materials, and to confirm design assumptions. It is noted that the CBC requires
continuous verification and testing during placement of fill, pile driving, and pier/caisson
drilling.
A Geofirm representative shall visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of
construction, as notified by the Contractor, in order to observe the progress and quality of the
work completed by the Contractor. Such visits and observation are not intended to be an
exhaustive check or a detailed inspection of the Contractor’s work but rather are to allow
Geofirm, as an experienced professional, to become generally familiar with the work in
progress and to determine, in general, if the work is proceeding in accordance with the
recommendations of this report.
Geofirm shall not supervise, direct, or have control over the Contractor’s work nor have any
responsibility for the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures
selected by the Contractor nor the Contractor’s safety precautions or programs in connection
with the work. These rights and responsibilities are solely those of the Contractor.
Geofirm shall not be responsible for any acts or omission of the Contractor, subcontractor, any
entity performing any portion of the work, or any agents or employees of any of them.
Geofirm does not guarantee the performance of the Contractor and shall not be responsible for
the Contractor’s failure to perform its work in accordance with the Contractor documents or
any applicable law, codes, rules or regulations.
These observations are beyond the scope of this investigation and budget and are conducted
on a time and material basis. The responsibility for timely notification of the start of
construction and ongoing geotechnically involved phases of construction is that of the owner
and his contractor. Typically, at least 24 hours’ notice is required.

Notes:This system consists of a geotextile fabric-wrapped gravel envelope. Collection is with a
4-inch diameter perforated plastic pipe embedded in the gravel envelope and tied to a 4-inch
diameter non-perforated plastic pipe which discharges at convenient locations. The outlet pipe
should be placed such that the flow gradient is not less than 2.0 percent. The geotextile fabric-
wrapped gravel envelope should be placed at a similar gradient
All drain pipes should be Schedule 40 PVC or ABS SDR-35. Perforations may be either bored 1/4-inch diameter holes or 3/16-inch slots placed on the bottom one-third of the pipe perimeter. If the pipe is to be bored, a minimum of 10 holes should be uniformly placed per foot of length. If slots are made, they should not exceed 2-1/2 inches in length and should not be closer than 2 inches. Total length of slots should not be less than 50 percent of the pipe length and should be uniformly spaced.
The fabric pore spaces should not exceed equivalent 30 mesh openings or be less than equivalent
100 mesh openings. The fabric should be placed such that a minimum lap of 8-inches exists at all
splices.

STANDARD GRADING SPECIFICATIONS
PA2021-300
APPENDIX D
STANDARD GRADING SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL
These specifications present the usual and minimum requirements for grading operations
observed by Geofirm or its designated representative. No deviation from these specifications
will be allowed, except where specifically superseded in the geotechnical report signed by a
registered geotechnical engineer.
The placement, spreading, mixing, watering and compaction of the fills in strict accordance with
these guidelines shall be the sole responsibility of the contractor. The construction, excavation,
and placement of fill shall be under the direct observation of the soils engineer signing the soils
report. If unsatisfactory soil-related conditions exist, the soils engineer shall have the authority
to reject the compacted fill ground and, if necessary, excavation equipment will be shut down to
permit completion of compaction. Conformance with these specifications will be discussed in
the final report issued by the soils engineer.
SITE PREPARATION
All brush, vegetation and other deleterious material such as rubbish shall be collected, piled and
removed from the site prior to placing fill, leaving the site clear and free from objectionable
material.
Soil, alluvium, or rock materials determined by the soils engineer as being unsuitable for
placement in compacted fills shall be removed from the site. Any material incorporated as part
of a compacted fill must be approved by the soils engineer.
The surface shall then be plowed or scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches until the surface is
free from uneven features that would tend to prevent uniform compaction by the equipment used.
After the area to receive fill has been cleared and scarified, it shall be diced or bladed by the
contractor until it is uniform and free from large clods, brought to the proper moisture content
and compacted to minimum requirements. If the scarified zone is greater than 12 inches in
depth, the excess shall be removed and placed in lifts restricted to 6 inches.
Any underground structures such as cesspools, cisterns, mining shafts, tunnels, septic tanks,
wells, pipe lines or others not located prior to grading are to be removed or treated in a manner
prescribed by the soils engineer.
MATERIALS
Materials for compacted fill shall consist of materials approved by the soils engineer. These
materials may be excavated from the cut area or imported from other approved sources, and soils
from one or more sources may be blended. Fill soils shall be free from organic vegetable matter
and other unsuitable substances. Normally, the material shall contain no rocks or hard lumps
PA2021-300
greater than 6 inches in size and shall contain at least 50 percent of material smaller than 1/4-
inch in size. Materials greater than 4 inches in size shall be placed so that they are completely
surrounded by compacted fines; no nesting of rocks shall be permitted. No material of a
perishable, spongy, or otherwise of an unsuitable nature shall be used in the fill soils.
Representative samples of materials to be utilized as compacted fill shall be analyzed in the
laboratory by the soils engineer to determine their physical properties. If any material other than
that previously tested is encountered during grading, the appropriate analysis of this material
shall be conducted by the geotechnical engineer as soon as possible.
PLACING, SPREADING, AND COMPACTING FILL MATERIAL
The material used in the compacting process shall be evenly spread, watered, processed and
compacted in thin lifts not to exceed 6 inches in thickness to obtain a uniformly dense layer.
When the moisture content of the fill material is below that specified by the soils engineer, water
shall be added by the contractor until the moisture content is near optimum as specified.
When the moisture content of the fill material is above that specified by the geotechnical
engineer, the fill material shall be aerated by the contractor by blading, mixing, or other
satisfactory methods until the moisture content is near optimum as specified.
After each layer has been placed, mixed, and spread evenly, it shall be thoroughly compacted to
90 percent of the maximum laboratory density in compliance with ASTM D: 1557-70 (five
layers). Compaction shall be accomplished by sheepsfoot rollers, vibratory rollers, multiple-
wheel pneumatic-tired rollers, or other types of acceptable compacting equipment. Equipment
shall be of such design that it will be able to compact the fill to the specified density.
Compaction shall be continuous over the entire area and the equipment shall make sufficient
passes to obtain the desired density uniformly.
A minimum relative compaction of 90 percent out to the finished slope face of all fill slopes will
be required. Compacting of the slopes shall be accomplished by backrolling the slopes in
increments of 2 to 5 feet in elevation gain or by overbuilding and cutting back to the compacted
inner core, or by any other procedure which produces the required compaction.
OBSERVATIONS AND TESTING
The geotechnical engineer shall observe the placement of fill during the grading process and will
file a written report upon completion of grading stating his observations as to compliance with
these specifications.
One density test shall be required for each 2 vertical feet of fill placed, or one for each 1,000
cubic yards of fill, whichever requires the greater number of tests.
PA2021-300
Any cleanouts and processed ground to receive fill must be observed by the soils engineer and/or
engineering geologist prior to any fill placement. The contractor shall notify the geotechnical
engineer when these areas are ready for observation.
PROTECTION OF WORK
During the grading process and prior to the complete construction of permanent drainage
controls, it shall be the responsibility of the contractor to provide good drainage and prevent
ponding of water and damage to adjoining properties or to finished work on the site.
After the geotechnical engineer has terminated his observations of the completed grading, no
further excavations and/or filling shall be performed without the approval of the soils engineer, if
it is to be subject to the recommendations of this report.

UTILITY TRENCH BACKFILL GUIDELINES
PA2021-300
APPENDIX E
UTILITY TRENCH BACKFILL GUIDELINES
The following guidelines pertinent to utility trench backfills have been adopted by the County of
Orange, Environmental Management Agency Grading Section, effective March 31, 1986. The
application of the guidelines is strictly enforced by the County reviewers and inspectors.
1. Each utility subcontractor (gas, electric, water, sewer, telephone, cable TV, irrigation,
drainage, etc.) shall submit to the developer for dissemination to his consultants (civil
engineer, geotechnical engineer, and utility contractor) a plot plan of utility lines installed
under his purview which identifies line type, material, size, depth, and approximate
location.
2. The developer or his agent shall provide a composite plot plan of all utilities or a copy of
all individual utility plot plans to his geotechnical engineer for use in evaluating whether
all utility trench backfills are suitable for the intended use.
3. The geotechnical engineer shall provide the County with a report which includes a plot
plan showing the location of all utility trenches which:
A. Are located within the load influence zone of a structure (1:1 projection)
B. Are located beneath any hardscape
C. Are parallel and in close proximity to the top or toe of a slope and may adversely
impact slope stability if improperly backfilled
D. Are located on the face of a slope in a trench 18 or more inches in depth.
Typically, trenches that are less than 18 inches in depth will not be within the load
influence zone if located next to a structure, and will not have a significant effect on
slope stability if constructed near the top or toe of a slope and need not be shown on the
plot plan unless determined to be significant by the geotechnical engineer. This plot plan
may be prepared by someone other than the soil engineer, but must meet his approval.
4. Backfill compaction test locations must be shown on the plot plan described in No. 3
above, and a table of test data provided in the geotechnical report.
5. The geotechnical report (utility trench backfill) must state that all utility trenches within
the subject lots have been backfilled in a manner suitable for the intended use. This
includes the backfill of all trenches shown on the plot plan described in No. 3 and the
backfill of those trenches which did not need to be plotted on this plan.
