Attention: Mr. Leif Thompson
Subject: Summary of Fault Investigation, Lower Campus, Hoag Hospital
Introduction
At your request and authorization Leighton and Associates, Inc. (Leighton) is pleased to present the
results of our fault investigation behind the proposed parking area at the Lower Campus at Hoag
Hospital (Figure 1). The area of our investigation was limited to the portion of the lower campus
below the terrace bluff and west of Hoag Drive.
Purpose and Scope of Work
The primary purpose of this study was to determine if a splay of the North Branch of the Newport -
Inglewood Fault Zone is present on the property owned by Hoag behind the proposed parking lot.
If a fault was encountered, we would assess, if possible, the recency of faulting to evaluate the
potential for future surface fault rupture at the site.
To conduct this study we performed the following tasks:
• Reviewed readily available reports on the geology of the area as well as aerial
photographs of the site;
• Observation of a 1250 foot long cut slope excavated to expose the contact between the
Monterey Formation and the overlying Quatemary Terrace;
• Observation of bedrock exposed in the subdrain trench excavated at the toe of the cut
slope; and
• Preparation of this report which summarizes our findings, conclusions, and
recommendations.

Site Description and Proposed Development
At the present time, the site is a vacant undeveloped parcel of land, The site is a triangular shaped
parcel bounded by Superior Avenue to the west, Pacific Coast Highway on the south, the existing
slope on the north that separates the upper terrace and the lower terrace adjacent to Pacific Coast
Highway; and Hoag Avenue on the east. A storm drain and utility lines for the gas flare are
located on the flat portion of the parcel.
The natural bluff forming the northern boundary of the study area has been modified on the eastern
side of the study area during grading for the adjacent condominiums (located to the north). Grading
resulted in addition of about 8 to 12 feet of fill over the natural slope. Minor amounts of fill were
also placed at the toe of the bluff, adjacent to the Child Care Center.
Grading is proposed for the site to develop a parking lot on the lower terrace, adjacent to Pacific
Coast Highway. The flat terrace above the bluff will be dedicated to the City of Newport Beach for
use as a linear park.
Previous Fault Studies
Mapping for the Versailles condominiums, adjacent to the study area on the upper terrace was
performed by GeoSoils, Inc. in 1978. For their study GeoSoils mapped the bedrock/terrace contact
from Superior Avenue, eastward across the study area. GeoSoils recognized two faults west of
station 8+50 but, the faults did not offset Holocene age soils. Guptill and Heath (1981) mapping
west of the property at Pacific Coast Highway and Superior Avenue, located the terrace deposits,
offset against the Miocene Monterey Formation. Their mapping indicated approximately 3 feet of
vertical offset of the bedrock/terrace contact and based on offsite exposure they postulated historic
fault displacement. They referred to this fault as the North Branch Splay. During subsequent work,
Guptill, Armstrong, and Egli (1989) excavated several trenches across these faults. The trenches
and soil units were logged and the relative ages of the soils and geomorphic surfaces. This
subsequent study by Guptill, et al (1989) found that although the Pleistocene age terrace deposits
had been offset, the faults did not offset the upper part of the late Pleistocene soils. They
concluded, based on their recent trenching with a better developed soil profile, that the North
Branch Splay was not active.
LeRoy Crandall mapped the slope in 1989 and 1991 as part of their work for the master planning
development of the Lower Campus of the Hospital. In their reports they discuss mapping the
bedrock/terrace contact along the slope. They found no offset on the site and concluded there was
no active faulting in the study area.

Merrill Wright excavated three trenches on the Lower Campus in 1993. The location of these three
trenches is shown on Plate 1 of this report. Wright's trenches exposed several faults and fractures
in the Monterey Formation bedrock but the bedrock was overlain by fill and Wright was unable to
trace the faults upward to determine if the bedrock/terrace contact was offset. Wright mapped the
slopes adjacent to the exploratory trenches and did not find any offset beds in the terrace deposits
along the projected trend of the faults or fractures found in the trenches. Wright concluded that the
faults and fractures found in the trenches were confined to the Miocene age Monterey Formation.
INVESTIGATION METHODS
Aerial Photograph Analysis
Black and white, vertical aerial photographs were reviewed to evaluate whether abrupt changes in
elevation, contrasts in vegetation or soil, or other lineaments of possible fault origin could be
discemed across or adjacent to the site. The stereo -paired photographs reviewed were taken
between 1928 and 1952, and are listed in Appendix.
Subsurface Exploration
For the purposes of this study we examined a cut slope approximately 1250 feet long that began
adjacent to Pacific Coast Highway. The slope was constructed as part of the proposed parking lot
and subdrain system. It began at the western corner of the site, and extended in an easterly
direction toward the Child Care Center. The slope was excavated across the regional trend of the
NIFZ. The slope exposed bedrock of the Monterey Formation as well as the overlying Quaternary
terrace deposits. Two different terraces appear to be present.
For our fault investigation we examined the freshly cut slope behind the proposed parking lot
adjacent to Pacific Coast Highway. We examined the slope from the centerline of the entry road
(Hoag Drive) at the intersection with Pacific Coast Highway, westward until the slope curved
southward to Pacific Coast Highway. Geologists from our firm cleaned the slope to remove the soil
materials smeared by the excavation equipment, and mapped the geologic units exposed on the
slope (Geology Map, Plate 1). For reference, stationing was assigned to the beginning at the
western corner of the slope.
Along the fresh slope the contact between the Monterey Formation and the overlying Quaternary
Terrace Deposits was examined for offsets. The contact was sharp, clearly defined and easily
traced across the site. Shears within the bedrock were traced upward to the terrace contact to verify
continuity without offset. Fractures in the terrace deposits were traced downward to the contact to
verify lateral continuity without offset of the contact. In areas where the terrace/bedrock contact

was covered with fill the bedrock was examined for shears. Where shears were found they were
projected or traced upward into the terrace deposits. The terrace deposits were then examined and
sand beds or other compositional layering was traced across the projected shear trace to
demonstrate lateral continuity without offset.
FINDINGS
The project area lies along the Newport -Inglewood structural zone in southem California. This
zone is a major tectonic boundary in the region and contains the Newport Inglewood fault. A splay
of the North Branch of the Newport -Inglewood fault is located adjacent to the Lower Campus on
Pacific Coast Highway.
Along the freshly cut slope, the contact between the Miocene age Monterey Formation and the
Quaternary age terrace deposits was examined for offsets. The contact was sharp, clearly defined
and easily traced across the site to the region behind the existing gas flare. Shears within were
easily observed and traced up to the terrace contact. The contact itself was readily identified. The
contact is a nearly flat, slightly undulating erosional surface. The surface is marked by a one-half to
one inch thick, nearly horizontal, light grey clay layer. The clay layer was not observed to be offset
by any of the fractures or shears in the bedrock. In areas where this clay layer was indistinct or
absent, thin sand beds or stringers parallel to bedding within the terrace deposits were traceable
through the terrace.
At approximately station 7+50 a sand filled fracture in the Quaternary terrace deposit was mapped.
The fracture was approximately four to six inches thick and had apparent offset of beds within the
terrace. The fracture was traced upward to where it died out below the soil horizon, consistent with
the findings by GeoSoils (1978). The fracture could not be traced to the clay layer at the
bedrock/terrace contact and the contact was not offset by the fracture.
At station 9+75 the contact was obscured by fill placed during grading for the condominiums on the
upper terrace. Vertical slots cut through the fill at 10 foot intervals for backdrain placement
allowed intermittent observation of the contact through station 10+50. Visual alignment of the
terrace/bedrock contact between these slots indicated no offset of the contact. A trench was
excavated at the toe of the slope from station 9+50 to 12+50. This trench revealed bedrock overlain
by fill. East of station 11+50 bedding exposed in the trench was not offset by faulting. West of this
station numerous fractures and small faults were observed in the trench. These faults and fractures
were projected visually to the excavated slope and the slope was checked to determine if the
bedrock/terrace contact was offset. In addition, previous mapping by Law/Crandall and GeoSoils
were reviewed for the area obscured by fill. In the area where fill presently covers the
bedrock/terrace contact, both consultants had mapped the bedrock/terrace contact prior to
placement of the fill and found the contact was laterally continuous without offset. Each concluded
that there were no active faults on this portion of the site.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our field mapping, fractures and shears were observed in the Miocene age bedrock, as
expected in this tectonic environment. Our mapping of the terrace bedrock contact, indicated no
evidence for offset of the contact between stations 0+00 and 9+75. Intermittent observation of
the bedrock/terrace contact between stations 9+75 to 10+50 indicated no offset of the contact.
Previous mapping by GeoSoils, Inc. in 1978 and by Law/Crandall found no evidence of
Holocene faulting between stations 10+50 and 12+50.
Based on our observations of the recently cut slope and review of prior mapping along the before
fill was placed along the east side of our study area, it is our opinion that although faults are
present in the Miocene age bedrock, they do not offset earth materials younger than 11,000 years
old. Therefore, the faults are not considered active under the Sate of California Alquist-Priolo
act.
If you should have any questions regarding this report, please contact us. We appreciate this
opportunity to be of service.

The locations of the exploration borings on the lower campus by Law/Crandall are shown on the
attached plan. Also shown are the areas explored by Law/Crandall and Leighton and Associates
for faulting along the lower campus from the Hoag Cancer Center to the western property line.
Based on our geotechnical and geologic studies performed to date and on our review of the fault
investigation report by Leighton and Associates, we found no evidence of active faulting within
the limits of the lower campus extending from the eastern side of the Hoag Cancer Center to the
western property limit. Although faults have been encountered within the Miocene age bedrock,
these faults have not been found to offset the terrace deposits younger than 11,000 years old and
are therefore not considered active under the State of California Alquist-Priolo act.

Re: Lower Campus Master Plan, Hoag Project #1250.16
Subject: Mitigation Measure 3
Dear Mr. Jurdi:
On November 18, 1996 our consultants Mike McLane, Peri Muretta, Steve McArdle
(Law/Crandall), and Ed Steiner (Leighton & Associates) met with you, Genia Garcia, and Rick
Higley regarding the fault studies that had been prepared for the Lower Campus. It is our
understanding that you have approved the report entitled "Summary of Fault Investigation,
Lower Campus, Hoag Hospital," prepared by Leighton & Associates (dated October 21, 1996).
That report "cleared" that portion of the Lower Campus with respect to fault study
requirements.
At that meeting you requested that Law/Crandall provide you with information related to their
fault study analyses for the remainder of the Lower Campus. Enclosed is a letter from
Law/Crandall dated December 2, 1996 with accompanying text and graphics. This letter will
provide the City with required information to `blear" the entire Lower Campus from the need to
conduct future fault studies. These studies complete the requirements of Mitigation Measure 3
of the Final EIR of the Hoag Master Plan.
Thank you for your help with resolution of this item.

Law/Crandall Project 70131-5-0689.0001
Dear Mr. Thompson:
As requested by Ms. Peri Muretta, we have reviewed previous reports and project files for our
prior work on the lower campus of Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian. The purpose of this
review was to evaluate the specific areal extent of geologic studies by Law/Crandall during the
previous construction projects. Based on this review, we have extended the area where geological
mapping of construction cuts for the Cancer Center was performed. This area was not previously
included in the plan attached to our letter dated November 15, 1996; the attached plan shows the
correct limits of the previous and current studies.
The professional opinions presented in this letter have been developed using that degree of care
and skill ordinarily exercised, under similar circumstances, by reputable geotechnical consultants
practicing in this or similar localities. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the
professional advise included in this letter.
Reports that have been submitted showing geologic mapping in the lower campus of Hoag
Memorial Hospital Presbyterian are the following:

OBSERVATION AND TESTING OF ASPHALTIC PAVING
As requested, our field technician observed and tested the asphaltic paving placed in the
new parking lot and drive areas, and in the temporary parking lot placed on the retarding
basin area. ASTM Designation D2922-81 nuclear gauge in -place density tests (equivalent
to UBC-70-5) were performed to establish the degree of compaction achieved. The
asphaltic paving was to be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum density.
The data derived from the performance of the nuclear in -place density tests are included
in the Table of Test Results; the approximate locations of the tests are shown on the
Geologic Map and Plot Plan. The paving section for the Child Care Center parking lot and
drives consisted of a 3-inch-thick section of 1/2-inch aggregate asphalt using AR4000 asphalt
cement over a 4-inch-thick section of base. A 31h-inch-thick section of 1/-inch aggregate
asphalt using AR4000 asphalt cement over an 81/-inch-thick section of base was placed in
the temporary parking lot over the previous retarding basin area. Fristing asphalt and
concrete surfaces were cleaned and tack -coated prior to the placement of the asphalt
sections. At the time of delivery, the temperature of the asphalt ranged from 275° to 310°
Fahrenheit. A value of 143 pounds per cubic foot was utilized for the maximum density of
the 1/2-inch aggregate asphalt. The asphalt was compacted by 5- to 8-ton, 8- to 10-ton, and
10- to 12-ton dual steel drum rollers.
GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
Geologic mapping was performed intermittently during the grading of Increments 1 and 2
^of the Cancer Center site. The geologic conditions exposed as a result of the grading were
essentially as anticipated in our geotechnical report dated September 15, 1987 (LCA AE-
87147). The site is underlain by marine terrace materials composed of interbedded clay, silt,
and sand. These materials are typical of the poorly indurated materials that blanket the
mesas of the Orange County Coastal Plain. At the western end of the excavation, this
deposit was found to be about 19 feet thick. The terrace was horizontally stratified and
LCA O90038.B Page 8
increased in thickness to 23 feet near the eastern 1/4 of the building. At this location, the
contact with the underlying siltstone dipped off to thicken to greater than 40 feet. This
thickening was likewise observed in Trench 3 in the previous investigation. Based upon the
exposures in the excavation and the backhoe trench, we believe this to be an unconformable
contact with terrace strata lapping onto the older siltstone bedrock. This contact is irregular
but continuous across the site and has no clay gouge associated with it.
The terrace deposits are underlain by claystone and siltstone of the Miocene age Monterey
Formation. These rocks are exposed in the bluffs at the south and west edges of Newport
Mesa. The Monterey Formation located adjacent to the site generally strikes N60W to
N80E and dips between 20 to 50 degrees to the northeast. Within this excavation, the
claystone and siltstone exhibited tight undulatory folding and local shearing. None of these
folds or shears deflected the overlying terrace contact. Therefore, these shears and folds
are believed to predate the Quaternary terrace deposits.
The existing cut slope located to the north of the Child Care Center site ascends at an
overall inclination of about 21 :1 (horizontal to vertical). The height of the slope in the
area of this proposed construction is on the order of 40 feet. The majority of the existing
slope was cut in the mid 1960s, when the site was used as a borrow area for other off -site
grading and construction.
During recent grading operations for the Child Care Center, about the lower 15 feet of the
slope was graded to a 2:1 slope ratio. Based on our observations, the lower 6 to 8 feet of
the cut slope exposes the Monterey Formation claystone and siltstone. The Monterey
Formation units exposed north of the Child Care Center have been folded into a
southeasterly plunging syncline. Beds east of the synclinal axis strike northwest -southeast
and dip 16 to 25 degrees southwesterly towards the fold axis. West of the fold axis, the beds
strike northwest to west-northwest and dip 2 to 26 degrees towards the north and northeast.

Based upon the continuity of the terrace/siltstone contact, we found no evidence for faulting
within the limits of grading for the subject Hoag Child Care Center project. All final slope
surface configurations within the limits of grading were graded to a 2:1 slope ratio in
conformance with the grading plans. When planted and maintained, these slopes are
expected to be grossly and surficially stable.
CONCLUSIONS
This final report is limited to the earthwork performed through December 14, 1990, the
date of our last observation and/or testing of the soil -related work for the project.
Grading for the Hoag Child Care Center development is in conformance with our geologic
recommendations presented in our geotechnical investigation report dated April 20, 1990
(LCA O89083.AEB) and is suitable from a geologic standpoint. The grading for the Child
Care Center development will not adversely affect the geologic stability of the off -site
properties. We find the graded site to be safe from the hazards of landsliding, settlement,
and slippage.
Based on our observations, we are satisfied that the foundation excavations and subgrades
for concrete slabs and walks and for asphaltic paving were prepared in accordance with the
project plans and specifications. The fill, backfill, base course and asphaltic paving, at the
locations and elevations tested by us, were compacted to at least the specified degree of
compaction. The asphaltic paving, where tested, also met the specification requirements.
Also, the foundation excavations extended into satisfactory compacted fill or undisturbed
natural soils. In our opinion, the geotechnical related work was performed in general
compliance with the project plans, specifications, and the City of Newport Beach Municipal
Code, and is considered suitable for the intended use.

of delivery, the temperature of the asphalt ranged from 300° to 310°
Fahrenheit. A value of 143 pounds per cubic foot was utilized for the
maximum density.
GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
Periodic geologic mapping was performed at various phases of the
Increment 1 grading. This' mapping found the conditions to be essen-
tially as anticipated.
The site is underlain by marine terrace materials composed of
interbedded clay, silt, and sand. These materials are typical of the
poorly indurated materials that blanket the mesas of the Orange County
Coastal Plain. At the western end of the excavation, this deposit was
found to be about 19 feet thick. The terrace was horizontally strati-
fied and increased in thickness to 23 feet near the eastern 1/4 of the
building. At this location, the contact with the underlying siltstone
dipped off to thicken to greater than 40 feet. This thickening was
likewise observed in trench 3 in the previous investigation. Based upon
the exposures in the excavation and the backhoe trench, we believe this
to be an unconformable contact with terrace strata lapping onto the
older siltstone bedrock. This contact is irregular but continuous
across the site and has no clay gouge associated with it.
The terrace deposits are underlain by claystone and siltstone of
the Miocene age Monterey Formation. These rocks are exposed in the
bluffs at the south and west edges of Newport Mesa. The Monterey
Formation located adjacent to the site is generally striking N6OW to
B-88064 Page 10
NSOE and dipping between 20 to 50° to the northeast. Within this
excavation, the claystone and siltstone exhibited rapid undulatory
folding and local shearing. None of these folds or shears deflected the
overlying terrace contact. Therefore, these shears and folds are
believed to predate this Quaternary terrace deposit. Based upon the
continuity of the terrace/siltstone contact, we found no evidence for
active faulting within the limits of grading.
CONCLUSIONS
This report is limited to the earthwork performed through
January 25, 1989, the date of our last observation and/or testing of the
soils related work for Increment 1 of the project development.
At the locations and elevations tested by us, the fill, back -
fill, base course and asphaltic paving were compacted to at least the
specified degree of compaction, and are suitable for the intended use.
Also, the shoring as installed should serve as required. In addition,
the geological observations revealed no conditions which varied from
those anticipated. In providing professional geotechnical observations
and testing services associated with the development of the project, we
have employed accepted engineering and testing procedures and have made
every reasonable effort to ascertain that the soil related work was
carried out in general compliance with the project plans and speci-
fications, and the City of Newport Beach Municipal Code. Although our
observation did not reveal obvious deficiencies, we do not guarantee the
contractor's work, nor do the services performed by our firm relieve the

aggregate asphalt, both using AR4000 asphalt cement. A 3-inch-thick section of asphaltic
concrete was placed in the parking areas and a 4-inch-thick section of asphaltic concrete was
placed in the roadway and drive areas. Existing asphalt and concrete surfaces were cleaned
and tack -coated prior to the placement of the asphalt sections. At the time of delivery, the
temperature of the asphalt ranged from 275 to 310' Fahrenheit. Values of 146 and 147
pounds per cubic foot were utilized for the maximum densities of the 3/4-inch aggregate
asphalt, and values of 143 and 145 pounds per cubic foot were utilized for the maximum
densities of the 1/2-inch aggregate asphalt. The asphalt was compacted by 5- to 8-ton, 8- to
10-ton, and 10- to 12-ton dual steel drum rollers.
GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
Geologic mapping was performed intermittently during the grading of Increments 1 and 2.
The geologic conditions exposed as a result of the grading were essentially as anticipated
in our geotechnical report dated September 15, 1987 (LCA AE-87147). The site is
underlain by marine terrace deposits composed of interbedded clay, silt, and sand. These
materials are typical of the poorly indurated materials that blanket the mesas of the Orange
County Coastal Plain. The terrace deposits vary in thickness between 19 and 40 feet, a
condition likewise observed in trench 3 in the previous investigation. Based upon the
exposures in the excavation and the backhoe trench, we believe this to be an unconformable
contact with terrace strata lapping onto the older siltstone bedrock. This contact is irregular
but continuous across the site and has no clay gouge associated with it.
The terrace deposits are underlain by claystone and siltstone of the Miocene age Monterey
Formation. These rocks are exposed in the bluffs at the south and west edges of Newport
Mesa. The Monterey Formation located adjacent to the site generally strikes N60W to
N80E and dips between 20 degrees to 50 degrees to the northeast. Within this excavation,
the claystone and siltstone exhibited tight undulatory folding and local shearing. None of
these folds or shears deformed the overlying terrace contact. Therefore, these shears and
folds are believed to predate the Quaternary terrace deposit.
LCA B-88064-B Page 9
The existing cut slope located to the north of the proposed Hoag Child Care Center ascends
at an overall inclination of about 21/2:1 (horizontal to vertical). The height of the slope in
the area of this proposed construction is on the order of 40 feet. The majority of the
existing slope was cut in the mid 1960s, when the site was used as a borrow area for other
off -site grading and construction.
During recent grading operations for the proposed Hoag Child Care Center, about the
lower 10 feet of the slope was graded to a 2:1 slope ratio. Based on our observations, the
lower 6 to 8 feet of the cut slope exposes the Monterey Formation claystone and siltstone.
The Monterey Formation units exposed north of the proposed Child Care Center have been
folded into a southeasterly plunging syncline. Beds east of synclinal axis strike northwest -
southeast and dip 16 to 25 degrees southwesterly towards the fold axis. West of the fold
axis, the beds strike northwest to west-northwest and dip 2 to 26 degrees towards the north
and northeast.
Based upon the continuity of the terrace/siltstone contact, we found no evidence for faulting
within the limits of grading for the subject Hoag Cancer Center project. All final slope
surface configurations within the limits of grading were graded to a 2:1 slope ratio in
conformance with the grading plans. When planted and maintained, these slopes are
expected to be grossly and surficially stable.
CONCLUSIONS
This final report is limited to the earthwork performed through October 4, 1990, the date
of our last observation and/or testing of the soil -related work for the project.
Grading for the Hoag Cancer Center Increment 2 Development is in conformance with our
geologic recommendations presented in our geotechnical investigation report dated May 26,
1987 (LCA AE-87147) and is suitable from a geologic standpoint. The grading for the
Increment 2 Development will not adversely affect the geologic stability of the off -site

Re: Hoag Project #1252.78 Lower Campus West Parking Lot
Dear Mr. Thibeault:
On May 3, 1996, Hoag Hospital was authorized to discharge groundwater resulting from its
Lower Campus parking lot construction project (NPDES No. CAG.998001, enclosed). That
project is currently underway and is being monitored in accordance with the requirements of
Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 93-49-035.
The Master Plan for development at Hoag Hospital was approved by the City of Newport Beach in
August of 1992. A final environmental impact report for the Master Plan project was also
certified at that time. Mitigation Measure #12 requires the following:
Upon completion of final building construction plans, and prior to the issuance of
a grading permit for each phase of development, the Project Sponsor shall ensure
that site hydrological analyses are conducted to verify that existing drainage
facilities are adequate. The applicant shall submit a report to the City of Newport
Beach Building Department for approval, verifying the adequacy of the proposed
facilities and documenting measures for the control of siltation and of erosive
runoff velocities. A copy of this report shall be forwarded to the California
Regional Water Quality Control Board, Santa Ana Region.
In accordance with Mitigation Measure #12, enclosed, for your information, is a report entitled
"Hydrology and Erosion Control Report for Lower Campus Phase I Grading and Parking Lot
Plan," prepared by David A. Boyle Engineering and dated February 1996.

MEMORIAL HOSPITAL PRESBYTERIAN, NEWPORT BEACH, ORANGE COUNTY
Dear Mr. Thompson:
On April 1, 1996, you submitted a complete NPDES application for the discharge of groundwater
' associated with the construction of a new parking lot and subterranean seepage at the Hoag Memorial
Hospital Presbyterian located at 301 Newport Boulevard in Newport Beach to a nearby storm drain which
is tributary to the Pacific Ocean. On July 16, 1993, the Regional Board adopted a general NPDES permit,
Order No. 93-49, NPDES No. CAG998001, (copy enclosed) for discharges associated with specific types
of activities, including construction dewatering projects, within this Region.
Effective immediately, you are authorized to discharge groundwater resulting from the construction
dewatering project under the terms and conditions of Order No. 93-49 as amended by Order No. 96-17,
including Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 93-49. This permit has been assigned the sequence
number 035 for tracking purposes. Therefore, all future correspondence should refer to this authorization
as Order No. 93-49-035.
Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 93-49 has been modified to be applicable to the dewatering
activities that Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian may undertake within the above -referenced site and
is enclosed as Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 93-49-035.
Order No. 93-49 will expire on July 1, 1998. However, if you wish to terminate coverage under this
general permit when the above -referenced project is concluded, please notify us immediately upon project
completion so that we can rescind this authorization and avoid billing you an annual fee of $400.00.

Re: Hoag Project #1252.78 Lower Campus West Parking Lot
Dear Mr. Thibeault:
On May 3, 1996, Hoag Hospital was authorized to discharge groundwater resulting from its
Lower Campus parking lot construction project (NPDES No. CAG.998001, enclosed). That
project is currently underway and is being monitored in accordance with the requirements of
Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 93-49-035.
The Master Plan for development at Hoag Hospital was approved by the City of Newport Beach in
August of 1992. A final environmental impact report for the Master Plan project was also
certified at that time. Mitigation Measure #12 requires the following:
Upon completion of final building construction plans, and prior to the issuance of
a grading permit for each phase of development, the Project Sponsor shall ensure
that site hydrological analyses are conducted to verify that existing drainage
facilities are adequate. The applicant shall submit a report to the City of Newport
Beach Building Department for approval, verifying the adequacy of the proposed
facilities and documenting measures for the control of siltation and of erosive
runoff velocities. A copy of this report shall be forwarded to the California
Regional Water Quality Control Board, Santa Ana Region.
In accordance with Mitigation Measure #12, enclosed, for your information, is a report entitled
"Hydrology and Erosion Control Report for Lower Campus Phase I Grading and Parking Lot
Plan," prepared by David A. Boyle Engineering and dated February 1996.
Sincerely,
Leif N. Thompson, AIA

Taylor and Assodates submitted plans for parking structure to be constructed on the North East comer of our property. A permit has been
issued and we are under construction. The Illumination of the structure is very important to Hoag; the structure will be the cornerstone of
our front entrance and thousands of'patients will navigate through this building when they use the hospital fadlltles. We -have spent
thousands of dollars designing a lighting system that would meet the city requirements and the hospital spedal needs. I respectfully request
that the city review our general lighting plan and photometric studies for the project; provide written comments or approve the plan as
designed before it is cast in concrete.
Hoag recently completed the Conference Center parking structure. During the design, Hoag's electrical engineer worked with lighting
manufacturers to select the best available fixture that would meet the city requirements; however, during the final inspection of the project,
we were directed by the city to modify the designed lighting scheme to reduce light spilling to the adjacent development. This process Is
very subjective. There was no measurable'light projecting from our property. A similar amount of Tight shines from adjacent developments
on to hospital property. The light from the city streetlights is significantly brighter space. Hoag was forced to spend thousands of dollars to
comply with the request by installing Jouvers over the lights, which decreased their efficiency. It took weeks to spedal order the louvers, and
the building could not be occupied until they were installed. The result met the city requirements; however, now I receive numerous
complaints from our staff and community members who use the center at night because the level is dimly lighted and does not feel safe.
We believe that we.have'found a better way to light the Interior of the new structure. We studied several methods to conceal the light
source and still provide suitable safe and comfortable lighting levels. We ruled out screens or louvers on the outside of the building shell,
because they would create a "boxy" structure; Instead, we designed an `open" structure that has been favorably received by city planners
and councilpersons. We ruled out standard fluorescent fixtures and the contemporary fixtures that were rejected by the City in the
Conference Center structure. We studied indirect lighting and decided to paint the structure ceiling to create a very finished interior and
provide a soft light bounce from a "state of the art" up -light fixture. The selected fixture is designed to conceal the light source and
minimizes Tight spillage and glare.
In order to avoid the previous fiasco, we requested that Jim Sinasek, City of Newport Beach Code Enforcement, provide an Informal review
of a full size lighting mock-up of one bay of this structure. He reviewed the mock up and on July 17, 2000, he replied to Jim Easley, Hoag
Project Manager, stating his concem that the ceiling is illuminated with some "hot spots" and Hoag's neighbors may be upset with four levels
of illuminated ceilings shining in their eyes. He declined to provide further comment, because he would not be able to evaluate the light until
the total structure is constructed and illuminated. I am sure you can understand our concern that any objections to the design that are
raised after the project is complete, will be very costly to correct.
We believe that the design exceeds the mitigation requirements and can be reviewed and approved prior to construction as noted in the
measure. If our architects or I can be of help or provide additional information, please call me. Thank you in advance for your
consideration. I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,

Gentlemen:
Mitigation Measure # 51 of EXhibit A of the Findings and
Conditions for Approval for the Hoag Hospital Master Plan
requires that a study of the gases from different areas near
the Lower Campus be conducted prior to implementing soil
grading. The measure reads as follows:
"To further determine the source of the gas
on the Lower Campus site, prior to the
issuance of a grading permit on the Lower
Campus, Project Sponsor shall collect gas
samples from the nearest fire flooding
wells and at Newport Beach Townhomes and
compare the gas samples to samples taken
from the Hoag gas collection wells prior to
•site grading and construction."
The samples from the Newport Townhomes and from the Hoag
Hospital Lower Campus gas collection wells have been taken.
The fire flood well samples will not be available. The
operator, West Newport Oil Company, has declined to allow the
taking of samples on their leases. Requests for sampling
were made twice in late 1992 and again in October 1993.
A composite sample of the gas produced at the City.of Newport
Beach wells tank farm, at 5810 Pacific Coast Highway, was
taken. This is the gas that is produced and sold to Hoag
Hospital. The production is from the offshore oil
reservoirs.
In September of 1992 samples were also taken from the Newport
Beach Townhomes. They are at the far west side of the Balboa
Coves area at 4401 Coast Highway. There are four vent
locations on this site. An attempt to sample the most
recently installed vents, those that were installed in 1991
was made. There was insufficient gas flow from either of
these to assure a quality sample. The final •sample was
obtained from one of the two old non-functioning ornamental
gas torches. The sample came from the torch on the right
hand side of the front man gate, as one looks at it from the
inside.
Hoag Memorial Hospital

The Hoag gas collection wells were sampled in nearly the same
time frame. Wells number 5, 6, and 7A were sampled one at a
time by closing in two wells and sampling the other well.
New valve systems were installed on two of the wells prior to
the sampling. This was needed due to leakage at some points
and uncertainty in the isolation capabilities of the 1989
brass valves.
There is a high probability that at least some of the brass
valves, that were installed shortly after the wells were
redrilled in 1989, are no longer functional. Some appear to
be both frozen and corroded. Not all of them were checked or
tested. This gas flow manifolding center will be replaced
during the Lower Campus building project. No danger is
caused by the valve condition.
The samples were analyzed, using protocol EPA 8015. Their
hydrocarbon components were measured in ppm (parts per
million) by volume, from Cl through C6, which is methane,
ethane, propane, butane, pentane and hexane. The remaining
hydrocarbons above C6 are given as a total, and are
designated as >C6. The other analyses which were also
measured, in ppm for hydrogen sulfide gas and the atmospheric
gases oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. The British
Thermal Units (BTU) value, a measure of heating quality, for
each of the gases was also reported for some of the samples.
A composite sample of gas that is presently burned in the
Hoag Hospital flare was also taken from the flowline to the
flare and analyzed. It is reported in Table I for comparison.
The samples were taken in tedlar bags with a vacuum pump. The
bags were filled and evacuated three times to get the final
sample. Two samples were taken from each site and analyzed
and an average obtained.
The Del Mar Analytical Laboratory reporting data sheets and
the Chain of Custody forms are included in the appendix.
Table I is a summary of the reported data. (see Table I)
These data show that the gases from the City oil wells and
the Newport Townhomes are very different both from each other
and from the Hoag Hospital collection wells. The data
suggests that each source of gas is distinctive from the
other. It is therefore unlikely that they are a product of
the fire flood. While this may be the case it is doubtful
that all the areas gas sources are unrelated. The Newport
City oil field gas is rich in the heavier gases and liquids
and the other sources are not. This to be expected, but the
extremely low methane content of the Newport Beach Townhomes
Hoag Memorial Hospital
L. Thompson
Page three
gas is unusual. The higher amounts of 02, N2, and CO2 are
near atmospheric amounts and probably indicate a leak in the
collection system. The Hoag collection wells do not show an
atmospheric leak. The low oxygen and greater than atmospheric
CO2 content may indicate bacterially derived or altered
gases. The low levels of butane (C4) through the higher
weight hydrocarbon gases is also an indication of a possible
bacterial source. The analyses of the City wells are a
typical example of the contents of oil reservoir gases. The
wet and higher fraction gases are much more abundant.
The composite sample, of the three (3) Hoag hospital wells,
shows some unusual features. The occurrence of hydrocarbons
C3 thru C6 and the higher than average nitrogen are both of
special interest. The H2S amount is considerably higher than
an average from the three wells.
The fact that the most shallow producing well, #6, has the
highest H2S reading may have some significance. It is
possible that the reaction that forms the H S gas is taking
lace near the surface and that the gases that are not high
in H2S are from the deeper reservoirs. Some early studies
concerning the formation of the hydrogen sulfide have related
it to a reaction with sea water.
Some of the conclusions that can be made concerning the
source of these gases are as follows. The sources seem to
vary. This is a very small sampling, but it is from three
different locations and even with the collection problems the
variation appears to be great enough to theorize that the
gases are from three different sources.
The Newport City wells exhibit a typical oil field gas
analysis. The heavier hydrocarbons, C3 through C6 and above,
are very evident. The oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide
are not present in atmospheric quantities, and the hydrogen
sulfide is present at a nominal level. The analyzed amount is
high, but not as high as the Hoag collection wells.
The Newport Townhomes samples are unusual, compared to the
Hoag wells, in their lower methane level and their very low
hydrogen sulfide content. The oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon
dioxide are present in near •atmospheric amounts. This is
probably due to leakage in the old collection system, but the
low methane and H2S indicate a source other than the Hoag
site reservoir.

The fire flood West Newport oil Company area, to the north-
west, may have been a minor contributor to the Hoag Hospital
produced gases, but the recent evidence, that follows, would
indicate the effect was minimal. The lease gas production
during air injection was 10,000 MCF (Thousand Cubic Feet) per
day. Now that injection has ceased, it is approximately 300
MCF/day, but no change in the Hoag wells production has been
noticed in the two years since it has stopped. The gas
produced at the fire flood has a BTU value of less than 200,
the Hoag wells' gas has always had a BTU value of 600 to 700.
This should have decreased over the years as the theorized
fire flood influence was felt. The fact that no resultant
production or gas content change has been detected would
strongly suggest that it is unlikely that the fire flood was
having much effect on the Lower Campus gas.
The Hoag Hospital wells have produced gas at approximately
the same rate since the early 1970's. This fact and the
differing gas analyses seem to indicate that the wells are in
a separate source area from the other two sites that were
studied. The collection wells are each some what different,
but basically are more similar than the other two (2) tested
gas sources. The collection well tests did show anomalies
that were unexpected. For example well #7A did not match
wells #5 & 6 in the content of methane, oxygen, nitrogen,
carbon dioxide, or hydrogen sulfide. The actual reason for
this is unknown, but the producing interval, and well tests
for previous well #3 & its replacement #7A, have always been
different from the other two. The oxygen, nitrogen, and
carbon dioxide content of any of the wells is not indicative
of an atmospheric origin, and could be interpreted as by-
products from bacterial action. The gas could either be
formed by bacteria or' altered in its migration from the
reservoir to the surface.
The composite sample of the three (3) wells has variations in
its content that do not correspond to any expected numerical
average of the individual well tests. The majority of the
production is from wells #5 & #6 so the reduced composite
sample methane is probably too low. The average should be
over 600 ppm. The reduced C2 (ethane) which is lower than
the average of all the wells doesn't equate. The oxygen,
nitrogen, and H2S are all too high, but the carbon dioxide is
near average so this increase is probably not caused by air
leakage. The hydrogen sulfide is higher than a weighted
average by a factor of approximately four. Sulfur deposits
in some of the flare equipment lines may explain the H2S.
Production slugging, where unequal amounts of gas of varying
content are produced over a given period may also be the
cause.
Hoag Memorial Hospital

Past investigations indicate that the easterly portion of the
Balboa Coves housing site, across Pacific Coast highway from
the Hoag collection wells, is connected to and influenced by
their gas production. If the well production is interrupted,
the methane and H2S begin to show in the area very quickly.
It is important that Hoag Hospital be allowed to continue the
withdrawal of the gases.
The early interpretation of the data acquired during this
test would indicate that the fire flood is not the primary
source of the gas produced from the Hoag Hospital Lower
Campus. This assessment has to be made without an analysis
of that area's gas, but the variability of gas content from
site to site indicates a multiple rather than a singular
source area.
Thank you for this opportunity to be of assistance in Hoag
Hospital's studies of the Lower Campus project.

Attn: Rich Manuel

Long Beach, CA 90802
Dear Mr. Manuel:
Recently Hoag Hospital Memorial Presbyterian received approval of its
Master Plan and certification of its Environmental Impact Report. As
part of the approval by the City of Newport Beach, certain conditions
and mitigation measures were adopted. One of these measures concerns
the investigation of the abandonment quality of well Exxon Newport #1,
and other abandoned wells near the project. This mitigation measure
reads as follows:
#50 Prior to construction of structures over or
near the Wilshire oil well, Project Sponsor
shall ensure that the Wilshire oil well, or
any abandoned, unrecorded well or pressure
relief well, is reabandoned to the current
standards. Abandonment plans will be sub-
mitted to D.O.G. for approval prior to the
abandonment procedures. The City's building
official shall be notified that the re -
abandonment was carried out according to
D.O.G. procedures.
We wish herewith to present the data on the abandonment quality of each
well and petition your approval of our interpretation.
There are seven (7) wells of different category near the Hoag Lower
Campus property (see map). Three wells were production wells, or
attempts at producing oil. Cagney #4 and #5 produced oil; they were
abandoned in 1978. Exxon (Wilshire 0i1) Newport #1 was a dry hole, and
abandoned as such in 1935. The other four wells which are Hoag
Memorial Hospital, State of California wells #5, #7A and City of
Newport Beach State of California #3, and #4 are either productive gas
pressure relief withdrawal wells, abandoned withdrawal wells, or
investigative gas source test wells. No "unrecorded well" is known to
exist.
The Hoag Memorial Hospital State of California wells #5 and #7A are
presently producing gas and are two of the three wells, along with #6,
that are controlling the Balboa Coves - Lower Campus methane and H2S
problem. No abandonment is required.
The City of Newport Beach State of California wells #3 and #4 are
abandoned. Well #3 was a producing location from 1976 until 1989 when
it was abandoned to make way for the widening of Pacific Coast Highway.
r
Mr. Rich Manuel
November 9, 1992
Page Two
It was originally drilled to 99'. A productive gas sand was
encountered at 83'. 7" casing was set at 99' with the bottom 16' shop
perforated. When the well was abandoned the 7" casing was recovered
and the hole filled with drilling mud up to 60'. The remainder of the
hole was filled with concrete up to within 8' of the surface. This
well is abandoned according to current requirements of the Division of
Oil and Gas. Well #4 was an investigative hole to determine if there
were productive gas sand at that location. No gas sand was found in
the 115' deep hole. Some H2S odor and minor amounts of methane were
recorded emanating from the shale. The hole was abandoned by filling
it with redimix concrete from 115' to within 2' of the surface. This
well is abandoned according to the current requirements, no
reabandonment is required.
The three oil producing wells or wells which were attempts at producing
are all abandoned. They are as follows:
James and William Cagney #4 was drilled in 1948 to 1,292'. 5-1/2"
liner was set at 1,290' with the top at 1,012'. Perforations were at
1,290' to 1,028' and 8-5/8" casing was cemented at 1,029' and 14"
surface casing was cemented at 40'. The well produced 9° gravity oil
in late 1948 and early 1949. In 1978 the well was abandoned. It was
cleaned out to 1,020' and squeeze cemented from there up to the
surface. 1-1/2 yards of cement was added to fill the hole. This well
is among the Versailles Apartments and is 390' straight back at right
angles to the present bluff cliff. The abandonment is not up to
current regulations due to the production perforations not being
cemented off. The distance from the proposed upcoming building project
precludes the need for its reabandonment.
James and William Cagney #5 was drilled in 1948 to a total depth of
3,878'. It produced 9° gravity for approximately 7 months. 5-1/2"
liner was set at 1,239' with the top at 1,024'. Perforations were from
1,239' to 1,051'. A cement plug had been placed from 1,395' to 1,240'.
Other plugs were placed from 3,050' to 2,907'. 8-5/8" casing was
cemented at 1,053' and 14" surface casing was cemented at 40'. The
lower most potentially productive and water bearing sands below 1,400'
should be sealed off. This is shown by the well's low 4% water cut
during its production. In 1978 the well was abandoned. It was cleaned
out to 1,185'. Three joints of tubing were stuck in the hole. Most of
the 5-1/2" liner was recovered. The hole was cemented with 351 cu. ft.
of cement from approximately 1,050' to the surface. This well is also
among the Versailles Apartments and is 220' north of the bluff cliff
and 180' east of the present flare location. The abandonment is not
current with present Division of Oil and Gas requirements. The
perforations are not cemented off. Its distance from the proposed
building project should preclude the need for its reabandonment.
Exxon Newport #1 was drilled in 1935 and never produced. This is the
so called Wilshire oil well named in Measure #50.
Mr. Rich Manuel
November 9, 1992
Page Three
"Newport" #1 was originally drilled in April of 1935 to a total depth
of 1,946'. No electric log was run. A drillers log was kept and 13
cores were taken, at selected intervals, from 1,565' to 1,867'. The
top 79' of coring detected six weak "heavy" oil shows that, according
to the core description, had high water saturation and would not be
economically productive. The drillers log, which is less precise than
the core data but includes the complete well, found oil and gas shows
at 586', 935', 962', 1,275', 1,540' and 1,548'. The show at 1,540' is
described as "sandy shale showing lots of oil". No gas is mentioned.
The show at 586' is described as "heaving (soft) sand with gas". No
oil is mentioned. The well was originally, during drilling, cased from
the surface with 10-3/4" casing to 1,930'. 13-3/8" casing was landed
at 887', and 18" conductor pipe was cemented at 14'.
In July of 1935 the hole was drilled to its total depth and the 10-3/4"
casing recovered. The hole was filled with heavy mud. Attempted to
recover the 13-3/8" casing, it did not come. The 13-3/8" casing was
cemented with 10 sxs. of cement from 865' to 848'. The 13-3/8" was
shot at 576', 416' and 320'. It was recovered from 320'. This means
that from at least 416' down to the bottom at 887', the casing is
locked solid in the hole. The hole was filled with heavy mud from 848'
to the surface. A wooden plug was driven into the open hole to 30'.
The open hole and 18" casing were cemented from 30' to the surface (see
well diagram).
This description offers the present following hole conditions. The
hole is open to 1,946'. It has thirteen (13) oil and gas shows. 13-
3/8" casing is stuck in the hole from 887' to 320'. There is a 17'
cement plug in this casing from 865' to 848'. The hole above the
cement plug is filled with heavy drilling mud. The hole is open
formation from 320' to the shoe of the 18" surface casing. The hole is
filled from 30' to the surface with a cement plug on a wooden plug to
bridge off the hole. (see diagram).
The following factors become apparent during an analysis of this well:
1. The well has some oil and gas shows in it.
2. The well is mostly mud filled open hole. The hole is open or non -
cased from 1,946' to 887' and 320' to 18'.
3. All, but one, of the reported oil and gas bearing sands are
presently exposed in the open hole well bore.
4. Two cement plugs and heavy mud are protecting against the
migration of gas and fluids up and down the hole.
5. The filling of the hole with heavy drilling mud should control oil
or gas influx, as long as the reservoir pressures are maintained
near hydrostatic or below.
6. Re-entering the old hole may not be possible due to the 300'
length of open hole section above the top of the 13-3/8" casing.
Mr. Rich Manuel
November 9, 1992
Page Four
It is highly unlikely that this well is the source of the gas in the
flare area. If it were the major source leak, the gas presence in the
well area of the bluff should be much more apparent. The likelihood of
entering the hole to the oil and gas shows without casing to total
depth, is very low. The reported heavy drilling mud fill left in the
hole should be capable of containing gases and liquids up to and
somewhat over hydrostatic pressure.
The present building plans for the well area are that it will not have
construction placed over or near it. It will be left in an open park
setting. If the well should ever require work, its location will be
highly accessible.
It is my professional opinion and recommendation that this well does
not, at this time, require reabandonment.
It is the intent of the foregoing to offer the well data and analysis
needed for your offices to make a decision as to the acceptance of the
abandonment quality of these wells. We would ask that you either
approve of the analysis by signing this document in the space provided
or advise us, in writing, of your conditional approval or disapproval.
If it is the latter, please include the well numbers and required
changes.
Sincerely,
M. E. WRIGHT
Geological & Petroleum Consultant

It is of the greatest importance to have a complete history of the well. Use chis.- rScm to report a full account of all important operations during the
drilling and testing of the well or during re -drilling, altering of casing, plugging, or abandonment with the dates thereof. Be sure to include such items
as hole size, formation test details, amounts of cement used, top and bottom of plug , perforation details, sidetracked junk, bailing tests, shooting and
initial production data and tam temperature
Spud well, 8:00 A.M.; 28-inch hole to 15 feet, 16-inch hole to 34 feet. At depth
of 34 feet (ground level datum) penetration ceased due to very hard formation,
10:00 A.M. no gas sand encountered; water slowly leaking into hole below 22 feet.
Notified D.O.G. by telephone re status of well and requested permission to
abandon same. Abandoned hole at 11:00 A.M. by dumping 22 cubic yeads of
ready -mix slurry in hole; top cement at 4 feet below ground level; filled
remainder of hole with clay soil.

1.0 Introduction
This study represents the results of an investigation to meet the requirements of Mitiga-
tion Measure 67. This measure can be found in the city of Newport Beach Findings
and Conditions for Approval for the Hoag Hospital Master Plan. This investigation was
performed according to our proposal dated September 17, 1993 and as authorized by
you on November 18,1993.
Mitigation Measure # 67 states,
" Prior to issuance of a grading permit, the project sponsor shall ensure that
the inferred fault traversing the site is trenched and monitored for gas prior
to site grading and construction. If gas monitoring indicates a potential risk
during grading, additional gas collection wells will be drilled to collect and
contain the gas."
There are two inferred faults shown on the various maps of the Lower Campus. The
northwesterly trace is unnamed and is shown on old Division of Oil and Gas Maps
(Zebal, 1968), while the principally northerly trace is named the Baico fault (Zebal,
1976). The approximate locations of these inferred faults are shown on the Trench
Location Plan (Plate A).
2.0 Purpose and Scope of Investigation
This fault investigation was performed to attempt to locate two faults inferred to exist on
the site based on previous investigations by Zebal and Associates (1968) and Leroy
Crandall and Associates (1989). To locate these faults, we have orientated and exca-
vated two trenches approximately perpendicular to the inferred trends, as mapped by
others. The location of these exploratory trenches is shown on the attached Trench
Location Plan, Plate A. The objectives of this study were accomplished by the following
scope of work:
1. Review of available published geologic data, and private geologic investigations
performed by other consultants.
2. Limited geologic mapping of the site and vicinity.
3. Gas monitoring during exploratory trenching.
4. Excavation of two exploratory trenches across the projected alignments of both
inferred faults.
5. Geologic evaluations, data compilation and review; and preparation of this report
and attached drawings, including conclusions and recommendations.

3.0 Project Location
The Hoag Hospital Master Plan Lower Campus project is located in the city of Newport
Beach in Orange County, California. Specifically, the site is that area north of Pacific
Coast Highway between Superior Avenue to the west and Hospital Drive to the east.
The region of this investigation was limited to the northwest side of Hospital Drive. The
location of the site and it's relationship to the nearby streets and the Alquist - Priolo
Special Studies Zones is shown on Figure 1.
4.0 Method and Description of Exploratory Trenching
The two exploratory trenches were excavated approximately 7 to 8 feet deep and 24 to
30 inches wide using a John Deere backhoe equipped with a 24 inch bucket. As these
trenches encountered bedrock at a fairly shallow depth, it was not necessary to ex-
cavate the trenches as deep as originally planned. The orientation, location, and depth
of each trench were measured using a Brunton compass, 100 foot measuring tape,
levels, and leveling string. The location of the trenches is shown on the Trench Loca-
tion Plan (Plate A) and were determined by measuring from known structures shown on
the Trench Location Plan. Each trench was measured and stationed in 5 foot intervals
to provide horizontal control during the investigation and trench logging. In addition, a
leveling line was placed in each trench to establish vertical control.
5.0 Background and Regional Geologic Setting
The site lies along the southern margin of the central block of the Los Angeles Physio-
graphic Basin. The geologic structure is dominated by northwest -trending faults
associated with the San Andreas system. Faults, such as the Newport -Inglewood, the
Whittier -Elsinore, the San Jacinto, and the San Andreas, are major faults of this sys-
tem. They are all known to be seismically active, and the San Jacinto, San Andreas,
and Whittier -Elsinore faults are known to have ruptured the ground surface in historic
time.
As a result of the Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Act of 1972, the State Geologist has
delineated "Special Studies Zones" along known active faults. Cities or counties
affected by the zoning must regulate development within the designated zones. Build-
ing permits for sites within state designated zones must be withheld until geologic
investigations demonstrate that a proposed development is not threatened by surface
displacement from future fault movement (Hart, 1992).

The Newport -Inglewood fault zone comprises a series of discontinuous faults and folds
that trend northwest -southeast across the Los Angeles basin from Beverly Hills to
Newport Beach and roughly parallels the more distant San Andreas faults zone, about
50 miles to the north. Based on the age of the rocks deformed or displaced, on the
topographic expression within the zone, and on the large number of associated earth-
quake epicenters, the age of faulting is youthful (Barrows, 1974 and Bryant, 1988).
A small westerly portion of the site is included within the established Alquist-Priolo
Special Studies Zone as shown on Figure 1. Aside from this area, no active or poten-
tially active faults were detected within the site as mapped by Leroy Crandall and
Associates during their geotechnical evaluation of the site in 1989. Figure 2 depicts the
regional faulting within the general site vicinity.
6.0 Local Geologic and Geomorphic Conditions
The project site is situated along the Northern side of Pacific Coast Highway between
Superior Blvd. and Newport Blvd. The project site occurs as a narrow, relatively flat
area bordered by an existing approximately 50 foot high, flat topped bluff to the east
and by Pacific Coast Highway to the west. The moderately steep bluff is deeply eroded
and incised by several shallow gullies and runnels . The Bluff has been interpreted as
an ancient marine wave cut terrace which previously existed at the edge of Pacific
Coast Highway, but has been cut back to its present location by excavation and borrow
grading during the 1950's. Most of the current bluff exposes terrace deposits consist-
ing of fine to medium grained, poorly to well bedded, white to light. grayish white sands,
silty sands, and minor clayey siltstones. The unit contains occasional lenses of fossilif-
erous sand containing mostly disarticulated bivalve shells. The distance from the base
of the bluff to Pacific Coast Highway varies from 100 to 140 feet. As observed within
our trenches, most if not all of the terrace deposits have been removed in the vicinity of
the exploratory trenches.
Terrace materials overlie the Miocene Monterey Formation bedrock along an old, nearly
flat lying erosional contact which occurs approximately at the base of the bluff and is
concealed by an extensive cattail wetland area that lies at the base of the bluff. The
source of water for the wetlands is from groundwater seepage along the contact bet-
ween the terrace materials and Monterey Formation. The Monterey Formation dips
gently 5 to 15 degrees southwest within the project site. Beneath the site, The Monter-
ey Formation is the apparent source of small quantities of natural gas, including hydro-
gen sulfide gas, which is being produced from various sand horizons, that is currently
being collected by three shallow wells. The gas from these wells currently flows
through a series of pipes by a suction pump system and is then burned through a flare.
These wells were installed in 1976 and have produced gas continuously up to this date.
During 1989, two wells were relocated to allow widening of Pacific Coast Highway.

7.0 Trench Observations
7.1 General
The exploratory trenching exposed a surficial veneer of artificial fill overlying bedrock
deposits within the depths explored. The artificial fill is essentially the same material as
the Terrace deposits in the bluff face, but has been moved from ifs original location
during the borrow grading which occurred at the site.
The bedrock unit consists mostly of laminated to massive dark gray, slightly diatoma-
ceous claystone and clayey siltstone with minor thin light. gray and brown sand beds,
lenses, and stringers, and is referred to as the Monterey Formation. The bedrock is
generally fresh to slightly weathered, but at some locations is moderately weathered up
to a foot or more within the contact of the overlying artificial fill. The moderately
weathered zone was also observed to contains trace amounts of secondary sulfur
mineralization and un-identified yellow and orange oxide staining.
The geologic features observed within each trench are shown on Plates B and C.
7.2 Trench No. 1
Trench No. 1 was excavated across the northwesterly trace of Zebal's unnamed fault
approximately 250 feet west of Hoag Hospital Drive. The location of this trench is
shown on the Trench Location Plan (Plate A).
Geologic mapping within this trench revealed the following:
Northeast of Sta 0+68, unfaulted bedrock was observed, evidenced by the presence of
small mappable continuous sand stringers and beds within the Monterey Formation.
These strata dip gently 5 to 10 degrees southwest.
At Sta 0+68, a distinct and traceable bed of sand has been offset along a steeply
dipping fault (southwest side up). Most of the movement along the fault appears to be
vertical based on the uniform thickness of the marker bed across the fault. The fault
appears as a approximately 1/16 to 1/2 inch wide zone of slickensided clay. Small
elongated zones of cemented sand were also observed within the fracture zone.
Southwest of Sta 0+68, the Monterey Formation is extensively jointed and fractured into
a number blocks bounded by high angle fractures. Where discemible, sand stringers
were observed to be offset from 1/16 to a few inches. Some of the fracturing/faulting (?)
was accompanied by drag folding. A good example of drag folding occurs on the
southwest side of first fault located southwest of Sta 0+68. Most of the sand stringers
thin and thicken making these units difficult to follow. The rather indistinct nature of the
beds made correlation between these beds and lens difficult to distinguish. Between
Sta 0+97 to Sta 1+02, a highly sheared zone of claystone bedrock exists containing a
1132faltgw Merrill E. Wright Page 4
Geological & Petroleum Consultant
number of slickensided, "polished" clay surfaces, several of which intersect and cross-
cut one another. The original bedrock structure of the typical Monterey claystone as
typically seen outside this zone has been destroyed within this zone. The general trend
of the fracture/fault surfaces within this zone range from N 80 W to N 85 E.
Several areas of seepage were noted within the northwest wall of this trench. The
source of water is likely derived from the adjacent wetlands. The water is seen to be
percolating along the contact between the bedrock and artificial fill, and in some cases
within the uppermost portion of the bedrock unit. No seepage was noted past the fault
at Sta 0+68.
7.3 Trench No. 2
This trench was excavated east of Trench No. 1 and across Zebal's inferred "Balco
fault".
Unlike Trench No. 1 , no continuous unfractured/faulted bedrock was noted for any
appreciable distance along the the entire length of this trench. However, most of the
fracturing/faulting observed consists of single, tight, high angle joints and fractures,
with very few zones of sheared bedrock. In most cases, there is very little offset, and
most of the sand stringers could be traced fairly easily across the fracture surfaces.
Stratigraphic separations along many of the fractures and occasional drag folds in-
dicate normal or reverse slip. A major exception to this is a sheared fault (?) zone
which trends approximately N 17 E across the trench near Sta 1+10. Here, an approx-
imately 2 inch thick sand marker bed has been offset a few feet. Evidence of horizontal
movement is indicated by the non -uniform thickness of some marker sand beds on
either side of this fault zone. A few sand marker beds adjacent to the fault zone have
been drag -folded and smeared. In addition, differential deformation and shearing of the
relatively incompetent claystone has destroyed most of the stratigraphic features within
several inches of this fault. The bedrock adjacent to the fault fracture was chaotically
slickensided. In addition, a slight hydrogen sulfide odor was apparent in fresh breaks
of the claystone bedrock, which quickly dissipated. No measurable quantities of this
gas could be detected with the monitoring device.
Similar to Trench No. 1, seepage was noted in Trench No. 2 within the northwest wall
of this trench. This was accompanied by precipitation of an unidentified rust -orange
colored mineral upon coming in contact with the air.

8.0 FINDINGS
Our exploratory trenching indicates fairly wide zones of faulted bedrock which have not
been fully delineated.
Trench No. 1 revealed faulting, shearing and offset bedding within the Monterey Forma-
tion which begins near Sta 0+68 and continues southwestward for an undetermined
distance beyond the end of the exploratory trench. The initial faulting at Sta 0+68 occurs
approximately 15 feet southwest of the inferred fault trace mapped by Zebal. The proximi-
ty of the inferred westerly most Zebal fault (see Plate A) to this fault suggests that these
two faults are the same. The inferred fault trends approximately N 62 W while the fault
trace mapped at Sta 0+68 has a more westerly trend that ranges from N 75 W to N 85 W.
Significant fracturing/jointing occurs throughout the length of Trench No. 2, However, a
distinct sheared fracture zone trending approximately N 17 E occurs at Sta 1+10. This
fracture occurs 35 feet southwest of the inferred Balco fault trace mapped by Zebal
(1976)(see Plate A). With the exception of a few bedrock fractures, no zones of exten-
sively sheared and faulted bedrock were noted near Sta 1+45 where the Zebal's Balco
fault would intercept our exploratory trenching. As a complete sequence of unfractured
bedrock was not found, the true location of the Balco fault may be located northeast of
Trench No. 2. On the other hand, the significant sheared fracturing seen at Sta 1+10
may be the true location of the Balco fault and the minor fracturing on either side of this
zone may be minor faulting associated with this main fracture. Attitudes of several frac-
ture surfaces trend toward the northwest, which is similar to the inferred fault direction.
As stated previously, the full width of faulting seen within each trench was not fully
delineated through the exploratory trenching. The only zone of relatively unfractured/un-
faulted bedrock occurs northeast of Sta 1+ 68 as shown within Trench No. 1.
Limitations imposed by the existing wetlands precluded this investigation from extending
northeast to the foot of the bluff where Pleistocene terrace deposits overlie the Monterey
Formation.
The lack of Holocene or Quaternary deposits within the trenches removed any direct
evidence to determine the recency of activity of the observed faults. No offset was seen
at the irregular contact that separates the thin veneer of artificial fill from the bedrock.
Geologic reconnaissance of the bluffs and surrounding flat area east of the bluff face did
not disclose any offset beds or any geomorphic escarpments along the general trend of
the observed faulting. Previous mapping by Leroy Crandall and Associates(1989) also
found no evidence of faulting within the Terrace deposits, or on the exposed bluff face.
Faulting of the Pleistocene terrace deposits against the Monterey Formation approximate-
ly 850 feet west of Trench No. 1 was noted by Leroy Crandall and Associates (1989),
Zebal (1968), and this firm. This would make this fault potentially active under the guide-
lines of the Alquist-Priolo Zone Special Studies Zones Act. As defined by this act, a fault
is potentially active if it shows evidence of surface displacement within Quaternary time
(1.6 million years)(Hart,1992).
1132falt qw Merrill E. Wright Page 6
Geological & Petroleum Consultant
The top of the bluff has been altered by recent construction activity and grading which
has eliminated any geomorphic expression offaulting.
Due to the complexity of the Newport -Inglewood fault zone, no attempt was made to
correlate the observed faulting to any of the mapped fault traces seen within the Alquist
Priolo Special Studies Zone located approximately 850 feet west of Trench No. 1 near the
property corner. The overall regional faulting in the west Newport Beach area is shown
on Figure 2.
Results of Gas Monitoring
During excavation, each trench was monitored for hydrogen sulfide gas and combustible
gases (methane, etc.) using a Gas Tech Safe T Mate, type 102 and Neotronics Digiflam
2000 gas monitoring devices respectively. The H2S detector is capable of detecting
hydrogen suede (H2S) in the range of 0 to 500 parts per million (ppm); whereas the
combustible gas detector responds to gas concentrations from .0005% to 100%, by
volume.
Continuous monitoring during trench excavation and during geologic inspection did not
reveal measurable and sustained amounts of H2S or combustible gas. However, a brief
but short lived quantity of H2S gas was detected with the monitoring device within Trench
No. 2 at Sta 1+44. Occasionally, faint traces of H2S gas could be detected by odor when
fresh bedrock was fractured with a rock hammer. These trace amounts of gas quickly
dissipated into the atmosphere and could not be detected by the monitoring device.
Careful monitoring for H2S and combustible gases were also performed along zones of
fracturing and faulting with no measurable amounts of H2S or combustible gas noted.
9.0 CONCLUSIONS
The exploratory trenches have revealed zones of fracturing/faulting which may be the
same faults as those mapped previously by Zebal and others. The fracturing observed
within our trenches appears confined to the Miocene Monterey Formation.
As previously mentioned, only a slight odor of Hydrogen Sulfide gas was detected within
the exploratory trenches and with the exception of a brief measured amount of Hydrogen
Sulfide gas at Sta 1+44 within Trench No. 2, no measurable or sustained amounts of
combustible gas or Hydrogen Sulfide gas were detected within the trenches or along the
zones of fracturing.
Grading that does not exceed the trenching depths should be relatively safe from gas
hazards. Based on the our observations, additional drilling of gas collection wells is not
warranted at this time.

In any case, it is recommended that all deep utility trenches and other confined excava-
tions be monitored for Hydrogen sulfide and combustible gases prior to entry to detect
the presence of these gases. The main H2S production is from thick sand beds located
at approximately 80 feet below existing grade in Wells #5, and #7A. At well #6, hydrogen
sulfide production comes from sand layers found between 15.0 and 52 feet below exist-
ing grade. No thick sand beds were observed during our exploratory trenching. If thick
sand strata are encountered during future excavation, special care should be taken to
check for H2S and methane. The risks involved and ultimate decisions should be careful-
ly determined by the owner and applicable goveming agencies.
We feel that this investigation has sufficient detail to meet the intent of Mitigation Meas-
ure # 67.

1.0 Introduction
This study represents the results of an investigation to meet the requirements of Mitiga-
tion Measure 67. This measure can be found in the city of Newport Beach Findings
and Conditions for Approval for the Hoag Hospital Master Plan. This investigation was
performed according to our proposal dated September 17, 1993 and as authorized by
you on November 18,1993.
Mitigation Measure # 67 states,
" Prior to issuance of a grading permit, the project sponsor shall ensure that
the inferred fault traversing the site is trenched and monitored for gas prior
to site grading and construction. If gas monitoring indicates a potential risk
during grading, additional gas collection wells will be drilled to collect and
contain the gas."
There are two inferred faults shown on the various maps of the Lower Campus. The
northwesterly trace is unnamed and is shown on old Division of Oil and Gas Maps
(Zebal, 1968), while the principally northerly trace is named the Balco fault (Zebal,
1976). The approximate locations of these inferred faults are shown on the Trench
Location Plan (Plate A).
2.0 Purpose and Scope of Investigation
This fault investigation was performed to attempt to locate two faults inferred to exist on
the site based on previous investigations by Zebal and Associates (1968) and Leroy
Crandall and Associates (1989). To locate these faults, we have orientated and exca-
vated two trenches approximately perpendicular to the inferred trends, as mapped by
others. The location of these exploratory trenches is shown on the attached Trench
Location Plan, Plate A. The objectives of this study were accomplished by the following
scope of work:
1. Review of available published geologic data, and private geologic investigations
performed by other consultants.
2. Limited geologic mapping of the site and vicinity.
3. Gas monitoring during exploratory trenching.
4. Excavation of two exploratory trenches across the projected alignments of both
inferred faults.
5. Geologic evaluations, data compilation and review; and preparation of this report
and attached drawings, including conclusions and recommendations.

3.0 Project Location
The Hoag Hospital Master Plan Lower Campus project is located in the city of Newport
Beach in Orange County, California. Specifically, the site is that area north of Pacific
Coast Highway between Superior Avenue to the west and Hospital Drive to the east.
The region of this investigation was limited to the northwest side of Hospital Drive. The
location of the site and ifs relationship to the nearby streets and the Alquist - Priolo
Special Studies Zones is shown on Figure 1.
4.0 Method and Description of Exploratory Trenching
The two exploratory trenches were excavated approximately 7 to 8 feet deep and 24 to
30 inches wide using a John Deere backhoe equipped with a 24 inch bucket. As these
trenches encountered bedrock at a fairly shallow depth, it was not necessary to ex-
cavate the trenches as deep as originally planned. The orientation, location, and depth
of each trench were measured using a Brunton compass, 100 foot measuring tape,
levels, and leveling string. The location of the trenches is shown on the Trench Loca-
tion Plan (Plate A) and were determined by measuring from known structures shown on
the Trench Location Plan. Each trench was measured and stationed in 5 foot intervals
to provide horizontal control during the investigation and trench logging. In addition, a
leveling line was placed in each trench to establish vertical control.
5.0 Background and Regional Geologic Setting
The site lies along the southern margin of the central block of the Los Angeles Physio-
graphic Basin. The geologic structure is dominated by northwest -trending faults
associated with the San Andreas system. Faults, such as the Newport -Inglewood, the
Whittler -Elsinore, the San Jacinto, and the San Andreas, are major faults of this sys-
tem. They are all known to be seismically active, and the San Jacinto, San Andreas,
and Whittler -Elsinore faults are known to have ruptured the ground surface in historic
time.
As a result of the Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Act of 1972, the State Geologist has
delineated "Special Studies Zones" along known active faults. Cities or counties
affected by the zoning must regulate development within the designated zones. Build-
ing permits for sites within state designated zones must be withheld until geologic
investigations demonstrate that a proposed development is not threatened by surface
displacement from future fault movement (Hart, 1992).

The Newport -Inglewood fault zone comprises a series of discontinuous faults and folds
that trend northwest -southeast across the Los Angeles basin. from Beverly Hills to
Newport Beach and roughly parallels the more distant San Andreas faults zone, about
50 miles to the north. Based on the age of the rocks deformed or displaced, on the
topographic expression within the zone, and on the large number of associated earth-
quake epicenters, the age of faulting is youthful (Barrows, 1974 and Bryant, 1988).
A small westerly portion of the site is included within the established Alquist-Priolo
Special Studies Zone as shown on Figure 1. Aside from this area, no active or poten-
tially active faults were detected within the site as mapped by Leroy Crandall and
Associates during their geotechnical evaluation of the site in 1989. Figure 2 depicts the
regional faulting within the general site vicinity.
6.0 Local Geologic and Geomorphic Conditions
The project site is situated along the Northern side of Pacific Coast Highway between
Superior Blvd. and Newport Blvd. The project site occurs as a narrow, relatively flat
area bordered by an existing approximately 50 foot high, flat topped bluff to the east
and by Pacific Coast Highway to the west. The moderately steep bluff is deeply eroded
and incised by several shallow gullies and runnels . The Bluff has been interpreted as
an ancient marine wave cut terrace which previously existed at the edge of Pacific
Coast Highway, but has been cut back. to its present location by excavation and borrow
grading during the 1950's. Most of the current bluff exposes terrace deposits consist-
ing of fine to medium grained, poorly to well bedded, white to light. grayish white sands,
silty sands, and minor clayey siltstones. The unit contains occasional lenses of fossilif-
erous sand containing mostly disarticulated bivalve shells. The distance from the base
of the bluff to Pacific Coast Highway varies from 100 to 140 feet. As observed within
our trenches, most if not all of the terrace deposits have been removed in the vicinity of
the exploratory trenches.
Terrace materials overlie the Miocene Monterey Formation bedrock along an old, nearly
flat lying erosional contact which occurs approximately at the base of the bluff and is
concealed by an extensive cattail wetland area that lies at the base of the bluff. The
source of water for the wetlands is from groundwater seepage along the contact bet-
ween the terrace materials and Monterey Formation. The Monterey Formation dips
gently 5 to 15 degrees southwest within the project site. Beneath the site, The Monter-
ey Formation is the apparent source of small quantities of natural gas, including hydro-
gen sulfide gas, which is being produced from various sand horizons, that is currently
being collected by three shallow wells. The gas from these wells currently flows
through a series of pipes by a suction pump system and is then burned through a flare.
These wells were installed in 1976 and have produced gas continuously up to this date.
During 1989, two wells were relocated to allow widening of Pacific Coast Highway.

7.0 Trench Observations
7.1 General
The exploratory trenching exposed a surficial veneer of artificial fill overlying bedrock
deposits within the depths explored. The artificial fill is essentially the same material as
the Terrace deposits in the bluff face, but has been moved from Ws original location
during the borrow grading which occurred at the site.
The bedrock unit consists mostly of laminated to massive dark gray, slightly diatoma-
ceous claystone and clayey sittstone with minor thin light. gray and brown sand beds,
lenses, and stringers, and is referred to as the Monterey Formation. The bedrock is
generally fresh to slightly weathered, but at some locations is moderately weathered up
to a foot or more within the contact of the overlying artificial fill. The moderately
weathered zone was also observed to contains trace amounts of secondary sulfur
mineralization and un-identified yellow and orange oxide staining.
The geologic features observed within each trench are shown on Plates B and C.
7.2 Trench No. 1
Trench No. 1 was excavated across the northwesterly trace of Zebal's unnamed fault
approximately 250 feet west of Hoag Hospital Drive. The location of this trench is
shown on the Trench Location Plan (Plate A).
Geologic mapping within this trench revealed the following:
Northeast of Sta 0+68, unfaulted bedrock was observed, evidenced by the presence of
small mappable continuous sand stringers and beds within the Monterey Formation.
These strata dip gently 5 to 10 degrees southwest.
At Sta 0+68, a distinct and traceable bed of sand has been offset along a steeply
dipping fault (southwest side up). Most of the movement along the fault appears to be
vertical based on the uniform thickness of the marker bed across the fault. The fault
appears as a approximately 1/16 to 1/2 inch wide zone of slickensided clay. Small
elongated zones of cemented sand were also observed within the fracture zone.
Southwest of Sta 0+68, the Monterey Formation is extensively jointed and fractured into
a number blocks bounded by high angle fractures. Where discemible, sand stringers
were observed to be offset from 1/16 to a few inches. Some of the fracturing/faulting (?)
was accompanied by drag folding. A good example of drag folding occurs on the
southwest side of first fault located southwest of Sta 0+68. Most of the sand stringers
thin and thicken making these units difficult to follow. The rather indistinct nature of the
beds made correlation between these beds and Tens difficult to distinguish. Between
Sta 0+97 to Sta 1+02, a highly sheared zone of claystone bedrock exists containing a
1132faltgw Merrill E. Wright Page 4
Geological & Petroleum Consultant
number of slickensided, "polished" clay surfaces, several of which intersect and cross-
cut one another. The original bedrock structure of the typical Monterey claystone as
typically seen outside this zone has been destroyed within this zone. The general trend
of the fracture/fault surfaces within this zone range from N 80 W to N 85 E.
Several areas of seepage were noted within the northwest wall of this trench. The
source of water is likely derived from the adjacent wetlands. The water is seen to be
percolating along the contact between the bedrock and artificial fill, and in some cases
within the uppermost portion of the bedrock unit. No seepage was noted past the fault
at Sta 0+68.
7.3 Trench No. 2
This trench was excavated east of Trench No. 1 and across Zebal's inferred "Balco
fault".
Unlike Trench No. 1 , no continuous unfractured/faulted bedrock was noted for any
appreciable distance along the the entire length of this trench. However, most of the
fracturing/faulting observed consists of single, tight, high angle joints and fractures,
with very few zones of sheared bedrock. In most cases, there is very little offset, and
most of the sand stringers could be traced fairly easily across the fracture surfaces.
Stratigraphic separations along many of the fractures and occasional drag folds in-
dicate normal or reverse slip. A major exception to this is a sheared fault (?) zone
which trends approximately N 17 E across the trench near Sta 1+10. Here, an approx-
imately 2 inch thick sand marker bed has been offset a few feet. Evidence of horizontal
movement is indicated by the non -uniform thickness of some marker sand beds on
either side of this fault zone. A few sand marker beds adjacent to the fault zone have
been drag -folded and smeared. In addition, differential deformation and shearing of the
relatively incompetent claystone has destroyed most of the stratigraphic features within
several inches of this fault. The bedrock adjacent to the fault fracture was chaotically
slickensided. In addition, a slight hydrogen sulfide odor was apparent in fresh breaks
of the claystone bedrock, which quickly dissipated. No measurable quantities of this
gas could be detected with the monitoring device.
Similar to Trench No. 1, seepage was noted in Trench No. 2 within the northwest wall
of this trench. This was accompanied by precipitation of an unidentified rust -orange
colored mineral upon coming in contact with the air.

8.0 FINDINGS
Our exploratory trenching indicates fairly wide zones of faulted bedrock which have not
been fully delineated.
Trench No. 1 revealed faulting, shearing and offset bedding within the Monterey Forma-
tion which begins near Sta 0+68 and continues southwestward for an undetermined
distance beyond the end of the exploratory trench. The initial faulting at Sta 0+68 occurs
approximately 15 feet southwest of the inferred fault trace mapped by Zebal. The proximi-
ty of the inferred westerly most Zebal fault (see Plate A) to this fault suggests that these
two faults are the same. The inferred fault trends approximately N 62 W while the fault
trace mapped at Sta 0+68 has a more westerly trend that ranges from N 75 W to N 85 W.
Significant fracturing/jointing occurs throughout the length of Trench No. 2, However, a
distinct sheared fracture zone trending approximately N 17 E occurs at Sta 1+10. This
fracture occurs 35 feet southwest of the inferred Balco fault trace mapped by Zebal
(1976)(see Plate A). With the exception of a few bedrock fractures, no zones of exten-
sively sheared and faulted bedrock were noted near Sta 1+45 where the Zebal's Balco
fault would intercept our exploratory trenching. As a complete sequence of unfractured
bedrock was not found, the true location of the Balco fault may be located northeast of
Trench No. 2. On the other hand, the significant sheared fracturing seen at Sta 1+10
may be the true location of the Balco fault and the minor fracturing on either side of this
zone may be minor faulting associated with this main fracture. Attitudes of several frac-
ture surfaces trend toward the northwest, which is similar to the inferred fault direction.
As stated previously, the full width of faulting seen within each trench was not fully
delineated through the exploratory trenching. The only zone of relatively unfractured/un-
faulted bedrock occurs northeast of Sta 1+ 68 as shown within Trench No. 1.
Limitations imposed by the existing wetlands precluded this investigation from extending
northeast to the foot of the bluff where Pleistocene terrace deposits overlie the Monterey
Formation.
The lack of Holocene or Quaternary deposits within the trenches removed any direct
evidence to determine the recency of activity of the observed faults. No offset was seen
at the irregular contact that separates the thin veneer of artificial fill from the bedrock.
Geologic reconnaissance of the bluffs and surrounding flat area east of the bluff face did
not disclose any offset beds or any geomorphic escarpments along the general trend of
the observed faulting. Previous mapping by Leroy Crandall and Associates(1989) also
found no evidence of faulting within the Terrace deposits, or on the exposed bluff face.
Faulting of the Pleistocene terrace deposits against the Monterey Formation approximate-
ly 850 feet west of Trench No. 1 was noted by Leroy Crandall and Associates (1989),
Zebal (1968), and this firm. This would make this fault potentially active under the guide-
lines of the Alquist-Priolo Zone Special Studies Zones Act. As defined by this act, a fault
is potentially active if it shows evidence of surface displacement within Quaternary time
(1.6 million years)(Hart,1992).
1132fattgw Merrill E. Wright Page 6
Geological & Petroleum Consultant
u
The top of the bluff has been altered by recent construction activity and grading which
has eliminated any geomorphic expression of faulting.
Due to the complexity of the Newport -Inglewood fault zone, no attempt was made to
correlate the observed faulting to any of the mapped fault traces seen within the Alquist
Priolo Special Studies Zone located approximately 850 feet west of Trench No. 1 near the
property corner. The overall regional faulting in the west Newport Beach area is shown
on Figure 2.
Results of Gas Monitoring
During excavation, each trench was monitored for hydrogen sulfide gas and combustible
gases (methane, etc.) using a Gas Tech Safe T Mate, type 102 and Neotronics Digiflam
2000 gas monitoring devices respectively. The H2S detector is capable of detecting
hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in the range of 0 to 500 parts per million (ppm); whereas the
combustible gas detector responds to gas concentrations from .0005% to 100%, by
volume.
Continuous monitoring during trench excavation and during geologic inspection did not
reveal measurable and sustained amounts of H2S or combustible gas. However, a brief
but short lived quantity of H2S gas was detected with the monitoring device within Trench
No. 2 at Sta 1+44. Occasionally, faint traces of H2S gas could be detected by odor when
fresh bedrock was fractured with a rock hammer. These trace amounts of gas quickly
dissipated into the atmosphere and could not be detected by the monitoring device.
Careful monitoring for H2S and combustible gases were also performed along zones of
fracturing and faulting with no measurable amounts of H2S or combustible gas noted.
9.0 CONCLUSIONS
The exploratory trenches have revealed zones of fracturing/faulting which may be the
same faults as those mapped previously by Zebal and others. The fracturing observed
within our trenches appears confined to the Miocene Monterey Formation.
As previously mentioned, only a slight odor of Hydrogen Sulfide gas was detected within
the exploratory trenches and with the exception of a brief measured amount of Hydrogen
Sulfide gas at Sta 1+44 within Trench No. 2, no measurable or sustained amounts of
combustible gas or Hydrogen Sulfide gas were detected within the trenches or along the
zones of fracturing.
Grading that does not exceed the trenching depths should be relatively safe from gas
hazards. Based on the our observations, additional drilling of gas collection wells is not
warranted at this time.

In any case, it is recommended that all deep utility trenches and other confined excava-
tions be monitored for Hydrogen sulfide and combustible gases prior to entry to detect
the presence of these gases. The main H2S production is from thick sand beds located
at approximately 80 feet below existing grade in Wells #5, and #7A. At well #6, hydrogen
sulfide production comes from sand layers found between 15.0 and 52 feet below exist-
ing grade. No thick sand beds were observed during our exploratory trenching. If thick
sand strata are encountered during future excavation, special care should be taken to
check for H2S and methane. The risks involved and ultimate decisions should be careful-
ly determined by the owner and applicable goveming agencies.
We feel that this investigation has sufficient detail to meet the intent of Mitigation Meas-
ure # 67.

Re: Hoag Hospital Parking Structure
Sub: Mitigation Measure No. 105 — Truck Tarps
Dear Mr. Easley
Les Farrow Excavating and Grading, Inc., is requesting Hoag Hospital to make an
exception to mitigation measure no. 105 — and not be required to tarp dirt hauling trucks.
This request is based solely upon the unavailability of adequate quantity of trucks which
contain trailer tarps,
In lieu of complying with mitigation measure no. 105, Les Farrow has agreed to the
following measures,
1. All trucks transporting soil and debris from the project site will be only loaded up to a
maximum height of 6" below the trailer side rails.
2. All trucks transporting soil and debris from the project site will have the soil and or
debris watered in such a manner to suppress any wind blow material exiting the truck
trailers.
McCarthy and Les Farrow understand that we are being granted a conditional approval
for exception and modification to mitigation measure no. 105, and that at any time Hoag
Hospital can revoke this conditional approval and enforce the terms and conditions of
our contractual agreement.
Please contact me in the event you have any further questions.
Sincerely, Sincerely,

DATE: September 2, 1997
TO: Commissioners & Interested Persons
FROM: South Coast District Staff
SUBJECT: Commission Meeting of Application No. 5-92-368 Ad (Hoag ay pHospitatember l)1997. Hospital). Item Newport Beach, Orange
County.
The att6Ched three letters of objection were received in the South Coast
District office on September 2, 1997. The fourth letter, also attached. was
receivedtember
the project based7 and uanorts viewshe lookingsfromrtownhomesect. he first
located
across Coast Highway to the project and based on the sulfur and methane smell
emanating from the project. The second and third letters object to the
project based on obnoxious odors associated with the project and to receiving
tthen the location
public hearing
oless
two weeks prior to the hearing date and
Regarding the objection based on views from the townhomes to the site: as
proposed the pro ect will be screened from views from Coast Highway with
fencing and vegetation and so will not create adverse impacts to public views,
Regarding the objection based on odors produced by the project: the existing
gas flare burns off the gas without first removing the sulfur content in the
gas. The proposed project would remove sulfur compounds from the gas,
principally hydrogen sulfide, to a level of 5.0 ppm from the current level of
4,000 ppm. Consequently. the proposed project would most likely result in a
decrease in noxious odors from the gas flare. Methane gas alone has no oder.
Regarding the timing of the public hearing notice and the locatioh of the
hearing: the public hearing notice was mailed out on 8/28/97, eleven days
prior to the hearing date of 9/9/97. The California Code of REN1AtiOns
requires that notice be dispatched no later than 10 days preceding the
meeting. The proposed project wes noticed consistent with the Regulations and
the Commission's standard practice. The existing gas elimination system is
deteriorated. If the existing system were to fail. dangerous gas accumulation
would result. For this reason, the South Coast Air Quality Management
District (SCAQMD) has requested, in a letter dated July 18, 1997 (attached to
the staff the subject eamendment. Inport as taddition, the SCAQMD that the shas indicated ion expedite tthat he rdelaying
of
the project will adversely impact air quality, in that the existing gas flare
allows significantly more sulfur to enter the air than is allowable by SCAQMD
regulations. The proposed project will reduce the sulfur content emitted into
the air. Consequently, Commission staff agendized the proposed project at the
next available hearing after the application was deemed complete. The next
available hearing was the September Eureka hearing.
