An interview of you regarding a history of the property and performance of the structure 2. Requesting from you any other information relevant to the evaluation of the structure including a verbal scope of work from Genadek Landscaping and Excavating Inc.during the site visit 3. Visual observations during a physical walk-through on September 10, 2015 4. Observe factors influencing the pertormance of the structure 5. Provide a written report containing the following: a. Scope of services b. Observations,site characteristics,and data deemed pertinent by me c. Discussion of major factors influencing structure performance and rationale in reaching conclusions concerning the subject residence d. Conclusions and any recommendations for further investigation and remedial or preventative measures. CONCLUSIONS The existing timber retaining walls along the rear side of the house are reaching the end of their expected useful life and are beginning to fail.The proposal from Genadek was reviewed and is sufficient to provide a stable slope. Approximately 8 to 10 feet of compacted structural clay soil will be added to bury the existing timber walls.The flat area at the back of the house will be extended out by 8 to 10 feet. The slope in front of the new flat rear yard area will have maximum 3:1 slope (horizontal to vertical) and will be constructed with the imported clay fill.The retaining walls will be only partially removed to allow for the proposed grades to be constructed. Surface erosion will be controlled on the slope with a seeded erosion control blanket installed and maintained per manufacturer requirements. Numerous options are available, but could include American Excelsior Curlex 1, AEC Premier Straw Single Net, or similar.The erosion control should be quickly established and maintained to reduce washout during rain events. I recommend that a temporary silt fence be installed at the limits of construction to reduce migration of soils off of the site.

A permanent seed mixture of your choice should be used. Mixes with both native and non-native seeds are commonly available. Selection should be made based on aesthetic and maintenance preferences. As with all slopes, some regular maintenance should be anticipated. All surface and building roof water should be directed away from the slope. Approval from the City of Eagan and/or the adjacent property owners may be required. CLOSING This evaluation was based on the information listed above. The level of investigation on this project was intended to be a report of first impressions and not that of any higher level of investigation. Opinions and recommendations in this report are limited to the scope of work. If site conditions vary from that assumed or stated, a revised analysis may be needed. We are available to coordinate with you and/or your contractor in determining specific repairs to be completed. Please call me if you have any questions or need further information regarding this project. Thank you.
