Our scope of services was limited to: staking prospective boring locations and coordinating the locating of underground utilities near the boring locations, conducting eighteen penetration test borings to a 5 feet along the existing alignments, classifying the samples and preparing boring logs, analyzing the results of the field tests, formulating recommendations for earthwork and pavements, discussing the results and recommendations with Mr. John Anderson of the City of Elk River, and submitting this geotechnical evaluation report containing logs of the borings, our analysis of the fIeld tests, and recommendations for earthwork and pavements construction. A.4. Documents Provided Mr. Maurer provided us with a partial map ofthe City of Elk River titled "2005 Proposed Street Reconstruction," indicating the project location.
