PROJECT NO. 190352 MARCH 26, 2020 1
1 Introduction and Project Description Aspect Consulting, LLC (Aspect) completed this preliminary geotechnical study to support the Odessa - County Road Bridge Replacement Planning Project (Project) led by Adams County and Nicholls Kovich Engineering (NKE). The Project consists of assessing type, size, and location (TSL) and cost estimating for replacement of ten bridges that span over the recently widened East Low Canal (canal) in Grant and Adams Counties, Washington (Project area). The replacement bridges are proposed to be single-span.
The 10 bridges that are part of this study (and their associated roads) are listed below and shown on Figures 1- 4:
Grant County:
247 W SE at East Low (Rd W SE)
248 11 SE at East Low (Rd 11 SE)
Adams County:
411-3 Sackman (Sackman Road)
413-3 Haystack (Providence Road)
414-3 Simenson (Herman Road)
415-3 Bruce East Low (Booker Road)
416-3 Fillerup (Foley Road)
417-3 Kansas Prairie (Cunningham Road)
418-3 Spud Palace (Lucy Road)
419-3 Shano (Hatton Road)
Two recently modified bridges in Adams County designated “410-3 Leisle” and “412-3 Duck Pond” are also shown. 410-3 Leisle was previously replaced and is supported by driven steel H-pile foundations. 412-3 Duck Pond is supported on shallow spread footings and was modified by steepening and lining canal sideslopes with concrete.
Based on our review of as-built bridge plans, the existing 10 bridges to be replaced are all founded on conventional shallow spread footings (spread footings). From discussions with NKE and Adams County, we understand that the preferred foundation types for the replacement bridges include, in order of preference, driven steel H-piles (driven H-piles) and conventional shallow spread footings.
The primary input for this Project includes a feasibility assessment of spread footings and driven H-piles for the ten bridge replacements, preliminary bearing capacity (for spread footings), and depth to bedrock (for driven piles) to inform approximate foundation sizing/depth.
ASPECT CONSULTING

Aspect reviewed as-built bridge drawings and nearby subsurface data from multiple sources, and completed a field reconnaissance at each bridge location to observe bedrock outcrops, composition of the canal sidewalls and nearby excavation stockpiles, and settlement performance of existing grade-supported bridge abutments.
The following sections present the culmination of our review and field reconnaissance to inform assessment of spread footing and driven H-pile and preliminary design input at each bridge.
This report was completed in general accordance with the NKE Subconsultant Services Agreement with Aspect, with an understanding of the Project based on verbal and email communications provided by NKE and Adams County.
This report should not be used for final design of replacement bridges. Final design support and construction should generally consist of bridge-specific geotechnical explorations, analysis, and recommendations.
2 Site Conditions
2.1 Geology The surficial geology in the area of the bridge replacements is mostly mapped as Palouse Formation loess with smaller localized areas of outburst flood deposits or Columbia River basalt bedrock (basalt). The loess is reported to consist of windblown silt and fine sand. The outburst flood deposits are reported to consist of lacustrine silt and fine sand. (Reidel et al, 1994). The surficial geology mapped at each bridge location is listed below.
Loess:
413-3 Haystack
414-3 Simenson
415-3 Bruce East Low
416-3 Fillerup
417-3 Kansas Prairie
418-3 Spud Palace
419-3 Shano
Outburst Flood Deposits:
247 W SE at East Low
411-3 Sackman
Basalt:
248 11 SE at East Low

PROJECT NO. 190352 MARCH 26, 2020 3
For all ten bridge locations, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) mapped basalt to underly any surficial loess and/or outburst flood deposits (USGS, 2019).
2.2 Surface Conditions Aspect conducted a field reconnaissance on November 27, 2019, to observe soil, rock, groundwater, and existing bridge foundation conditions at the 10 bridge locations and the previously replaced/modified bridges (410-3 Leisle and 412-3 Duck Pond). We observed shallow subsurface conditions by examining the canal sidewalls and conducting shallow probe and hand tool excavations (less than 2 feet deep) at the canal base.
We understand the canal was empty of water for about 1 month prior to the field reconnaissance, except for shallow standing water observed at the canal base at the 248 11 SE at East Low and 412-3 Duck Pond bridge locations.
The canal section is roughly trapezoidal and extends approximately 15 to 22 vertical feet below the bridge deck/surface elevation. The canal sidewalls are generally sloped at 1.5H:1V (Horizontal:Vertical). The canal is not lined.
Surficial soils at all the bridge locations were generally observed as silt or sandy silt (ML)1 and silty sand (SM), and scattered layers of caliche,2 seen throughout the canal sidewalls and at the base of the canal. Shallow hand tool excavations and probing indicate that these soil conditions continued to within 2 feet of the bottom of the canal.
We did not observe basalt outcrops or significant basalt fragments in large stockpiles derived from the excavation of the canal, with the exception of 248 11 SE at East Low, where abundant basalt fragments were observed atop the stockpile.
We observed the roadway surface at the bridge approaches are paved with asphalt concrete (pavement). We observed some minor to moderate cracking and settlement of the pavement at the approaches but not above the bridge foundation itself.
2.3 Subsurface Explorations and Water Wells By Others We reviewed logs of nearby test pit data collected during original design of the canal in the 1950s, geotechnical borings and test pit explorations at nearby bridge replacements, and logs of nearby water wells drilled by private property owners.
The approximate locations of the relevant explorations and water wells are shown on Figures 2 - 4. The logs are included in Appendix A (grouped by bridge) and are summarized below (grouped by source):
Eight test pit explorations recorded on the East Low Canal as-built drawings (CBP, 1950).
1 Soil Classification per the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Refer to ASTM D2488 (ASTM, 2017). 2 Caliche is a common soil feature in arid or semi-arid regions, in which gravel, sand, clay, and silt sediments are cemented together, usually by calcium carbonate precipates.

Four soil borings at 410-3 Leisle Road bridge, designated B-1 through B-4, performed by Budinger & Associates in 2014 (B&A, 2014a)
Six soil borings and two test pit explorations at 412-3 Duck Pond bridge, (designated B-1401 through B-1406 and TP-1407 and TP-1408), performed by Budinger & Associates in 2014 (B&A, 2014b)
Two test pits at the 413-3 Haystack bridge, designated TP-1 and TP-2, performed by Adams County in 2003 (ACPW, 2003)
31 well logs, designated Well Log #1 through #31 (naming by Aspect for simplicity) drilled between 1957 and 2019 (Ecology, 2019)
2.4 Stratigraphy In general, we interpret stratigraphy at the ten bridge locations to be primarily loess deposits, and to a lesser extent outburst flood deposits, consisting of mixtures of silt and fine sand with layers of caliche. We estimate these deposits extend to depths of approximately 13 to over 70 feet below ground surface (bgs) and overlie basalt. These soil/rock units are described below in general order of shallowest to deepest.
2.4.1 Silt and Sand We observed mixtures of silt, sandy silt (ML), and silty sand (SM); moist, brown and light brown, at the ground surface and throughout the canal sidewalls to the bottom of the canal at each bridge location. These soils are likely predominantly loess, but might also include outburst flood deposits. The silt was generally observed to be non-plastic, with the exception of 419-3 Shano, where localized layers of silt were observed to be low plasticity.
Nearby soil stockpiles excavated from and placed near the canal were largely made up of silt and sand soils. Logs of nearby explorations and water wells generally report similar descriptions of silt and sand soils.
The silt and sand soils exhibit relatively low shear strength characteristics, moderate elastic compressibility under new loads, and high sensitivity to moisture as it relates to earthwork and compaction.
Because of the soil structure, silt and sand loess deposits (but not outburst flood deposits) are susceptible to collapse when initially saturated and subjected to new loads which can result in vertical settlement.
2.4.2 Caliche We observed caliche layers up to several feet thick comprised of stiff to hard, brown, white and tan soil cemented by calcium carbonate precipitates throughout the canal sidewalls and/or at the canal base at the bridge locations.
We observed gravel- to boulder-sized particles of caliche within nearby soil stockpiles excavated from and placed near the canal. Logs of nearby explorations and water wells report similar descriptions of the caliche.
ASPECT CONSULTING
PROJECT NO. 190352 MARCH 26, 2020 5
The caliche exhibits high shear strength, low permeability, low compressibility, and high sensitivity to moisture. The caliche can be difficult to excavate, and may require ripping with toothed-buckets and/or bulldozer shank.
2.4.3 Basalt Basalt was not directly observed at/near the bridge replacement locations, but was inferred to be present at or relatively close to the base of the canal at 248 11 SE at East Low. This inference is based on the observation of standing water at the canal base and abundance of basalt fragments along the canal sidewalls and top of nearby canal excavation stockpile.
The basalt bedrock exhibits high shear strength, low permeability, and very low compressibility.
The estimated depth to basalt at each bridge location is presented in Table 1 and is based primarily on the data review and field reconnaissance results detailed above in Sections 2.1 through 2.3. The actual depth to bedrock will vary from these estimates.
2.5 Groundwater Shallow standing water observed at the canal base at 248 11 SE at East Low, and logs of water wells located near 419-3 Shano, indicate perched groundwater levels ranging from 12 to 30 feet bgs atop the basalt and/or caliche layers at those locations.
We expect groundwater levels at the bridge replacement locations will dramatically increase around the canal when filled with water and decrease rapidly over several days/weeks after emptying. Groundwater levels might also fluctuate due to seasonal changes such as weather and local irrigation practices.
We do not expect the regional groundwater table, expected to be deeper than about 40 feet bgs, or significant seepage will dramatically affect construction or cost of spread footing or driven H-pile foundations.
3 Conclusions and Recommendations
3.1 Summary Based on the observed surficial conditions and the inferred subsurface conditions, we consider spread footings designed at relatively low vertical bearing pressures to limit settlement to be a feasible foundation option. There is an apparent risk that spread footings supported on silt and sand loess deposits (but not outburst flood deposits) could suddenly settle several inches if the loess is saturated for the first time by water.
We also consider impact-driven H-piles to bear on basalt to be a feasible foundation option, provided the piles can be embedded at least approximately 15 to 20 feet for lateral fixity.

The following sections present seismic design considerations and additional preliminary design recommendations for spread footings and driven H-pile foundations to support cost estimating by NKE.
3.2 Seismic Design Considerations The bridges are located within an area of active tectonic forces associated with the interaction of tectonic plates and subduction zone earthquakes. Earthquakes from these sources present the possibility of causing significant hazards, including ground shaking, soil liquefaction, and surficial ground rupture.
The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Bridge Design Manual (BDS) response spectra for design are based on local seismicity and Site soil conditions. The 7 percent probability of exceedance in the 75-year design event (approximately 1,000-year recurrence interval) is the design seismic event for this Project.
The peak ground and spectral accelerations (ground shaking) adjusted for seismic Site Classes B, C, or D (depending primarily on depth to basalt beneath each bridge replacement) is relatively low.
Liquefaction can occur when loose, saturated, and relatively cohesionless soil deposits temporarily lose strength from ground shaking. Based on the expected low-levels of ground shaking, estimated depth to basalt, and the depth, variability and presence/absence of perched groundwater (if any) most of the year, we preliminarily assess the likelihood of soil liquefaction to be low and not likely a design consideration for the bridge replacements.
Traces of a thrust fault zone are present to the southwest of the Project area located 10 miles or more to the southwest of the Project area (Reidel et al., 1994). With this, the potential for surficial ground rupture at the Site is considered to be very low and not a design consideration.
3.3 Preliminary Foundation Recommendations 3.3.1 Spread Footings
Based on the anticipated stratigraphy and performance of the observed existing bridge and recently replaced bridge spread footing, we consider spread footings designed at relatively low bearing pressures to be geotechnically feasible for all bridge replacements.
We preliminarily estimate spread footings designed to an allowable bearing pressure of approximately 2,000 to 3,000 pounds per square foot (psf) and bearing on a 1-foot-thick pad of compacted crushed rock overlying native silt and sand soils will settle less than about 1 inch total as bridge loads (Service Limit State) are applied.
The risk of slow, long-term settlement – typically a problem for footings overlying saturated fine-grained silt, clay, and organic-rich peat – is not anticipated to be a design consideration.
In our opinion, there is an apparent risk that spread footings founded on silt and sand loess deposits (but not outburst flood deposits) could settle on the order of several inches

PROJECT NO. 190352 MARCH 26, 2020 7
if saturated for the first time (saturation-induced settlement). The saturation-induced settlement is a result of a sudden ‘collapse’ of the loess soil structure caused by wetting. The unlined canal has been filled and emptied presumably 50 times or more since its construction. The surrounding loess soil (if present) has presumably been wetted and dried as many times and likely undergone most of the potential saturation-induced settlement. We expect that loess deposits located above the canal water level (when full) most likely have not been saturated before and are still vulnerable to saturation-induced settlement. Saturation of these shallower loess deposits could occur from unforeseen incidents such as a sudden break or slow leak in a nearby water line, or significant changes in surface and perched groundwater flow regimes.
Based on the perceived low risk of saturation of the shallower loess deposits, we consider the apparent risk of saturation-induced settlement to be low, and should be evaluated for each bridge in final design. If saturation-induced settlement risk is present at a particular bridge site, over-excavating and replacing loess soils with compacted structural fill, such as crushed rock, could be implemented to reduce the risk.
Scour potential (determined by others) and proximity to canal sideslopes should also be considered.
We estimate basalt may exist at/near the spread footing elevation at the 248 11 SE at East Low bridge. Spread footings overlying basalt can be designed to an allowable bearing pressure of 10,000 psf or more.
We expect excavations for spread footing construction will require tracked excavators with toothed-buckets to excavate through layers of hard caliche within the silt and sand soils. Assuming excavation would occur after the canal is empty of water, we estimate an active dewatering system is not needed and perched groundwater (if present) could be handled using sumps and pumps to dewater the excavation.
3.3.2 Driven H-Piles Based on the estimated depth to basalt and the Counties’ accounts of excellent performance of H-pile-supported bridges in Adams and Grant Counties, we consider steel H-piles driven to bear on basalt to be feasible for all bridge replacements, with an exception. Of exception, minimum pile embedment (below pile cap) to attain lateral fixity should be carefully considered where basalt rock is anticipated to be relatively shallow at less than about 15 to 20 feet bgs.
Driven H-piles are typically readily available, economical, and quick to install with practical ways to verify their capacity in the field during construction. H-pile sections are preferred over closed-ended pipe sections because they can cut through hard caliche layers (when present) located above the basalt.
Given the rural bridge locations, the risk of damaging nearby buildings and infrastructure from pile driving vibration appears low.
The nominal axial resistance of steel H-piles driven to practical refusal on basalt is controlled by the structural limit state and not geotechnical resistance. We expect H-piles driven with an appropriately sized impact hammer will settle less than 1 inch for all loading cases.

The estimated depth to basalt bearing layer is shown on Table 1. Design lateral loading on the bridges is expected to be relatively low, and minimum pile embedment of approximately 15 to 20 feet for lateral resistance should be considered for final design. This may control design at locations where the basalt is shallow (i.e., limited pile embedment). At locations where the basalt bearing layer is estimated to be relatively shallow (listed below), the basalt may be pre-drilled using air rotary methods to allow the pile to be driven and socketed into the basalt.

417-3 Kansas Prairie
416-3 Fillerup
Excavations for driven H-pile caps are expected to be relatively smaller than excavation for spread footings. The possibility of encountering perched groundwater atop caliche layers is possible, but can likely be handled using sumps and pumps.

Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use
ASPECT CONSULTING
REPORT LIMITATIONS AND GUIDELINES FOR USE
Geoscience is Not Exact The geoscience practices (geotechnical engineering, geology, and environmental science) are far less exact than other engineering and natural science disciplines. It is important to recognize this limitation in evaluating the content of the report. If you are unclear how these "Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use" apply to your project or property, you should contact Aspect Consulting, LLC (Aspect).
This Report and Project-Specific Factors Aspect’s services are designed to meet the specific needs of our clients. Aspect has performed the services in general accordance with our agreement (the Agreement) with the Client (defined under the Limitations section of this project’s work product). This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the Client. This report should not be applied for any purpose or project except the purpose described in the Agreement.
Aspect considered many unique, project-specific factors when establishing the Scope of Work for this project and report. You should not rely on this report if it was:
• Not prepared for you;
• Not prepared for the specific purpose identified in the Agreement;
• Not prepared for the specific subject property assessed; or
• Completed before important changes occurred concerning the subject property, project, or governmental regulatory actions.
If changes are made to the project or subject property after the date of this report, Aspect should be retained to assess the impact of the changes with respect to the conclusions contained in the report.
Reliance Conditions for Third Parties This report was prepared for the exclusive use of the Client. No other party may rely on the product of our services unless we agree in advance to such reliance in writing. This is to provide our firm with reasonable protection against liability claims by third parties with whom there would otherwise be no contractual limitations. Within the limitations of scope, schedule, and budget, our services have been executed in accordance with our Agreement with the Client and recognized geoscience practices in the same locality and involving similar conditions at the time this report was prepared
Property Conditions Change Over Time This report is based on conditions that existed at the time the study was performed. The findings and conclusions of this report may be affected by the passage of time, by events such as a change in property use or occupancy, or by natural events, such as floods,
ASPECT CONSULTING
earthquakes, slope instability, or groundwater fluctuations. If any of the described events may have occurred following the issuance of the report, you should contact Aspect so that we may evaluate whether changed conditions affect the continued reliability or applicability of our conclusions and recommendations.
Geotechnical, Geologic, and Environmental Reports Are Not Interchangeable
The equipment, techniques, and personnel used to perform a geotechnical or geologic study differ significantly from those used to perform an environmental study and vice versa. For that reason, a geotechnical engineering or geologic report does not usually address any environmental findings, conclusions, or recommendations (e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants). Similarly, environmental reports are not used to address geotechnical or geologic concerns regarding the subject property.
We appreciate the opportunity to perform these services. If you have any questions please contact the Aspect Project Manager for this project.
