Dear Mr. Cook:

The following letter is being sent to formally transmit the results of our geotechnical services conducted

at the site in Knoxville, Tennessee. This report has been prepared in general accordance with S&ME, Inc.

(S&ME) Proposal No. 12-1700042R1, dated January 30, 2017, and Award/Agreement Number: 10381-7-

102559-M0002 between CH2M HILL Engineers, Inc. (CH2M) and S&ME, dated February 2, 2017. The

purpose of our geotechnical services was to explore subsurface conditions, perform laboratory testing,

and provide the data under a cover letter for use in design and construction of the proposed new sewer

line.

Field work was performed on February 9 and 10, 2017 under the direction of S&ME geotechnical

engineer, Jason Feuge. An S&ME drill crew used a Diedrich D-50 Turbo track-mounted drill rig and 3 ¼”

hollow stem augers to drill Borings BH-01, BH-02, and BH-03 on February 9, 2017. Boring BH-01 was

backfilled at completion and Borings BH-02 and BH-03 were left open for delayed water level

measurements. The water levels recorded are noted on the attached boring logs. The borings were

backfilled with cuttings and a plastic borehole closure device was placed just below the ground surface.

On February 10, 2017, our subcontractor, Scot Land Improvements, dug test pit TP-01 to identify the

existing pipe backfill materials and overlying soils. Subsurface water was not noted in the test pit

excavation. The test pit excavation was backfilled with the spoil material in lifts and tamped with the

excavator bucket.

The subsurface conditions were fairly consistent across the three borings and at the test pit location. The

soils encountered were generally low-plasticity (lean) clays with varying amounts of silt and sand. The soils

were alluvial in origin and deposited by the adjacent Holston River with the exception of TP-01. At TP-01,

the soils were the same material as the three borings, but appeared to have been disturbed during the

installation of the original sewer line and replaced as fill.

The samples were returned to our materials laboratory in Louisville, Tennessee where soil classification

tests were performed by S&ME. Selected samples were sent to GeoTesting Express for corrosion series

testing. A table summarizing the lab test results has been attached as well as the individual lab test data

sheets.

It has been our pleasure to be of continued service to CH2M and we hope to be of further assistance in

the future.

Sincerely,

S&ME, Inc.

Case Narrative

The samples were received in accordance with the Chain of Custody and no significant deviations were encountered during the preparation

or analysis unless otherwise noted. Sample Receipt, Container Information, and the Chain of Custody are located at the back of the report.

Results contained within this report relate only to the samples submitted under this Alpha Lab Number and meet NELAP requirements for all

NELAP accredited parameters unless otherwise noted in the following narrative. The data presented in this report is organized by parameter

(i.e. VOC, SVOC, etc.). Sample specific Quality Control data (i.e. Surrogate Spike Recovery) is reported at the end of the target analyte list

for each individual sample, followed by the Laboratory Batch Quality Control at the end of each parameter. Tentatively Identified Compounds

(TICs), if requested, are reported for compounds identified to be present and are not part of the method/program Target Compound List,

even if only a subset of the TCL are being reported. If a sample was re-analyzed or re-extracted due to a required quality control corrective

action and if both sets of data are reported, the Laboratory ID of the re-analysis or re-extraction is designated with an "R" or "RE",

respectively. When multiple Batch Quality Control elements are reported (e.g. more than one LCS), the associated samples for each element

are noted in the grey shaded header line of each data table. Any Laboratory Batch, Sample Specific % recovery or RPD value that is outside

the listed Acceptance Criteria is bolded in the report. All specific QC information is also incorporated in the Data Usability format of our Data

Merger tool where it can be reviewed along with any associated usability implications. Soil/sediments, solids and tissues are reported on a

dry weight basis unless otherwise noted. Definitions of all data qualifiers and acronyms used in this report are provided in the Glossary

located at the back of the report.

In reference to questions H (CAM) or 4 (RCP) when "NO" is checked, the performance criteria for CAM and RCP methods allow for some

quality control failures to occur and still be within method compliance. In these instances the specific failure is not narrated but noted in the

associated QC table. The information is also incorporated in the Data Usability format of our Data Merger tool where it can be reviewed

along with any associated usability implications.

Please see the associated ADEx data file for a comparison of laboratory reporting limits that were achieved with the regulatory Numerical

Standards requested on the Chain of Custody.

HOLD POLICY

For samples submitted on hold, Alpha's policy is to hold samples (with the exception of Air canisters) free of charge for 21 calendar days

from the date the project is completed. After 21 calendar days, we will dispose of all samples submitted including those put on hold unless

you have contacted your Client Service Representative and made arrangements for Alpha to continue to hold the samples. Air canisters will

be disposed after 3 business days from the date the project is completed.

Please contact Client Services at 800-624-9220 with any questions.

Values which are less than five times the reporting limit for any individual parameter are evaluated by utilizing the absolute difference between the values; although the RPD value will be provided in the report.Standard Reference Material: A reference sample of a known or certified value that is of the same or similar matrix as the associated field samples.Semi-dynamic Tank Leaching Procedure per EPA Method 1315.

Tentatively Identified Compound: A compound that has been identified to be present and is not part of the target compound list (TCL) for the method and/or program. All TICs are qualitatively identified and reported as estimated concentrations.

Total: With respect to Organic analyses, a 'Total' result is defined as the summation of results for individual isomers or Aroclors. If a 'Total' result is requested, the results of its individual components will also be reported. This is applicable to 'Total' results for methods 8260, 8081 and 8082.Analytical Method: Both the document from which the method originates and the analytical reference method. (Example: EPA 8260B is shown as 1,8260B.) The codes for the reference method documents are provided in the References section of the Addendum.

Spectra identified as "Aldol Condensation Product".

The analyte was detected above the reporting limit in the associated method blank. Flag only applies to associated field samples that have detectable concentrations of the analyte at less than ten times (10x) the concentration found in the blank. For MCP-related projects, flag only applies to associated field samples that have detectable concentrations of the analyte at less than ten times (10x) the concentration found in the blank. For DOD-related projects, flag only applies to associated field samples that have detectable concentrations of the analyte at less than ten times (10x) the concentration found in the blank AND the analyte was detected above one-half the reporting limit (or above the reporting limit for common lab contaminants) in the associated method blank. For NJ-Air-related projects, flag only applies to associated field samples that have detectable concentrations of the analyte above the reporting limit. For NJ-related projects (excluding Air), flag only applies to associated field samples that have detectable concentrations of the analyte, which was detected above the reporting limit in the associated method blank or above five times the

reporting limit for common lab contaminants (Phthalates, Acetone, Methylene Chloride, 2-Butanone).

Co-elution: The target analyte co-elutes with a known lab standard (i.e. surrogate, internal standards, etc.) for co-extracted analyses.Concentration of analyte was quantified from diluted analysis. Flag only applies to field samples that have detectable concentrations of the analyte.Concentration of analyte exceeds the range of the calibration curve and/or linear range of the instrument.

The concentration may be biased high due to matrix interferences (i.e, co-elution) with non-target compound(s). The result should be considered estimated.The analysis of pH was performed beyond the regulatory-required holding time of 15 minutes from the time of sample collection.

The lower value for the two columns has been reported due to obvious interference.

Reporting Limit (RL) exceeds the MCP CAM Reporting Limit for this analyte.

Presumptive evidence of compound. This represents an estimated concentration for Tentatively Identified Compounds (TICs), where the identification is based on a mass spectral library search.The RPD between the results for the two columns exceeds the method-specified criteria.

The quality control sample exceeds the associated acceptance criteria. For DOD-related projects, LCS and/or Continuing CalibrationStandard exceedences are also qualified on all associated sample results. Note: This flag is not applicable for matrix spike recoverieswhen the sample concentration is greater than 4x the spike added or for batch duplicate RPD when the sample concentrations are lessthan 5x the RL. (Metals only.)Analytical results are from sample re-analysis.
