THE SHORES SUBDIVISION - PHASE IGEOTECHNICAL ASSESSMENT
Dear Don:
As requested, Thurber Engineering Ltd. (TEL) has completed a review of the sinkhole formedon June 1! 2012 and previously reported sinkholes, slope instability, springs and erosion withinThe Shores subdivision. This letter documents our observations and provides our commentsand recommendations.
This report is subject to the attached Statement of Limitations and Conditions.
1. INTRODUCTION
The site is a 28 lot residential development with a plan area of about 400 by 200 m, located onthe west side of the neighbourhood of West Porpoise Bay, in Sechelt, BC, The site is on thesouth shore of Sechelt Inlet at Snake Bay and extends westward from the intersection of GaleRoad North (L-100) and Crowston Road to Snake Bay Creek. The site was developed byConcordia Homes Ltd. (Concordia). Civil engineering for the development was provided byWeb Engineering Ltd. (Web) and geotechnical engineering by GeoTacTics Engineering Ltd.(later incorporated as GeoTacTics Media Engineering (2007) Ltd.). For discussion purposes,we have used the name GeoTacTics to refer to both companies.
We understand that a spring developed on Lot 3 on May 26, 2012, and that significant quantitiesof sand and silt were observed discharging from the spring at that time. On June 1, 2012, asinkhole collapse occurred on Seawatch Lane (L-200) adjacent to Lot 28 at about Sta. 5÷80.Until the sinkhole collapse occurred, no surface manifestation of the sinkhole was reported. Forpublic safety reasons, the District of Sechelt (DOS) has closed access to the lane and hasbackfilled the sinkhole with granular material. The DOS is conducting regular site inspectionsand is regularly topping up the sinkhole backfill as required.
Following the formation of the sinkhole, DOS retained TEL to provide geotechnical input onexisting geotechnical issues and provide an assessment of the risk of similar issues occurring inthe future. To aid our assessment and understanding of the site, DOS has provided us withavailable historical geotechnical information on the development, elevation contours from 2009bare earth LiDAR mapping and miscellaneous documents, drawings and photos as backgroundinformation for our review. The documents are summarized in Table 1.

2. SITE DESCRIPTION
2.1 Surface Conditions
The site physiography is described concisely in the GeoTacTics reports and is not repeatedherein. In those reports, the overall development property is divided into 4 zones, namely theforeshore, the backshore marsh, the lower slope and the upper slope as shown on GeoTacTics’Dwg. No. 2 (attached) dated August 2004. Phase 1 of the development lies between theforeshore and the crest of the lower slope at about El. 50 m. GeoTacTics indicates that theoverall slope of Phase 1 dips down at about l5cfro m the horizontal to the north east. Phase 2,which has not yet been developed, is proposed on the upper slope zone. Building lots arelocated both below the L-100 line (the extension of Gale Avenue North) and between the L-100line and L-200 line (Seawatch Lane), which roughly follows the crest of the lower slope. Thereis a 15 m wide environmental setback along the shoreline which was intended to precludedevelopment on much of the foreshore marsh zone. Most of the trees have been removed fromthis zone since commencement of construction.
2.2 Subsurface Conditions
Based on information provided by GeoTacTics, we understand that the typical soil profile in thedevelopment area comprises (from top down) an upper zone of very dense, cobbly, glacial tilland marine silt layers underlain by a deposit of grey/brown, fine grained sand, underlain by firmto stiff marine silt with lenses of fine sand. Groundwater is believed to be perched on thesurface of the lower marine silt layer and results in springs occurring in the fine sand layerexiting the slope near the base of the lower slope and on the backshore marsh. GeoTacTics’Figure 3, showing a schematic section of the site geology, is attached.
At the time of our 2008 site reconnaissance to assess the rock stack retaining walls on behalf ofDOS, the grey/brown fine sand deposit was visible at the western end of the site and the lowermarine silt was exposed in the foundation excavation for Lot 15. The near-vertical excavatedfaces in the sand were dry. Seepage was observed from above and from sand lenses withinthe marine silt layer. There were no exposures of the glacial till deposit at the time of the 2008reconnaissance.
In 2012, the grey/brown fine sand deposit is still visible at the western end of the site above theL-200 alignment from the park dedication to south of about Lot 17.
2.3 Existing Geotechnical Issues
Review of GeoTacTics’ reports indicates that wet zones and multiple springs formed on the cutslopes during site preparation, releasing significant volumes of water and soil. Following theformation of the springs, sinkholes began to be observed upslope of the springs. Additionally,there have been several instances of slope instability during and after construction. Theseissues were ongoing throughout construction and are documented in the available geotechrtical

information. An active sinkhole and seepage feature were observed during our 2012 sitereconnaissance and follow up site visits.
As described below, we believe that the springs and sinkholes are distinct manifestations of thesame geotechnical issue. Accordingly, any geotechnical investigation program and remediationor mitigation measure must consider the whole system of which they are parts to be successful.
3. PROGRAM OF WORK AND REVIEW
Our program of work carried out in preparation of this letter report includes the following:
1) A site reconnaissance and follow up visits,
2) Soil sampling for laboratory testing
3) Geophysical survey with ground penetrating radar
4) A land survey of the sinkhole, spring and other indicators of springs and sinkholes
5) Airphoto interpretation
6) Review of available geotechnical information
Our geotechnical engineering assessment and recommendations are based on ourinterpretation of the above information.
3.1 Site Reconnaissance and Follow-up Site Visits
3.1.1 Sta. 5+80, L-200 Sinkhole and Lot 3 Spring
A site reconnaissance was conducted by David Tara, P.Eng. of TEL on June 2, 2012. Mr. Tarawas accompanied by Mr. Phil Strain of DOS. The purpose of the reconnaissance was tovisually assess the sinkhole and spring, provide interim guidance for management of thesinkhole and determine if there were any immediate life safety issues. Follow up visualinspections were conducted by Mr. Tara on June 5, 15 and July 1, 2012.
At the time of our initial site visit on June 2, the sinkhole area had been cordoned off withbarriers. The hole in the asphalt was immediately adjacent to the south curb near Sta. 5+80(L-200) and measured about 1.2 by 2.4 m in plan. Below the asphalt, the opening was visuallyestimated to be about 4.6 by 4.6 m as shown in Photo 1.
Based on discussions with several of the residents, we were informed that the spring hadformed around midday on May 26. By mid-week, efforts were apparently made to contain the

flow and direct it through a series of stilling basins to reduce the amount of silt and sand runningdown the bank and into Snake Bay.
The spring on Lot 3 is shown on Photo 2 and the first of the stilling basins (nearest to the spring)in Photo 3. As seen in the photo, the water is silt laden and the volume of flow is significant.
On June 2, we also observed that the water flowing in the ditch on the west side of CrowstonRoad disappears into the ground well upstream of the storm water culvert inlet.
It was agreed that DOS would conduct regular visual inspections of the site until the sinkholeissue was resolved.
On June 4 the sinkhole was backfilled by DOS with granular material.
At the time of our June 5 site visit, DOS staff had returned to remove a section of the curb andcomplete backfilling operations. The zone around the spring on Lot 3 had been reworked and19mm crushed gravel placed around the opening. As a result, the exiting water was muchmore dispersed with a significant component draining down the slope and the remainder into thestilling basins.
By June 6, DOS reported that a 1.2 by 2.4 m zone of the sinkhole backfill had dropped about0.5 m. Since that time, the backfill continues to disappear into the sinkhole and DOS continuesto regularly top it up. We understand that, initially, DOS was topping up the backfill with theequivalent of about 1 load of a single axle gravel truck per day but that the volume has sincedecreased.
We were informed by Mr. Ron Davis of Concordia that the Crowston Road ditch hasexperienced significant downcutting since it was constructed.
3.1.2 Slopes and Retaining Walls
In general, rock stack walls have been constructed to the south of Lots 19 to 21 and to the northof Lots 22 to 28. The transition from south to north occurs between Lots 21 and 22. The rockstack walls range from single to multi-tier with minimum tier heights of about 2 m. Other thanfencing on Lot 25, no safety rails or fences were observed.
The overall slope along the south side of Lots 19 to 21 dips down from Seawatch Lane at about28° to 30° from the horizontal. The majority of th e slope is supported by a system of rock stackwalls. However, in the southeast corner of Lot 211 a scarp-Hke feature is present as shown inthe oblique image (Photo 4) and 2009 airphoto (Photo 5) taken from Sunshine Coast RegionalDistrict (SCRD) Online Property Information System (OPlS).
The upper slope of Lot 18 dips down from the L-200 at about 38°to 40°from the horizontal.

At the southwest corner of the site, the existing cut slopes are benched. Several of the cutslopes are near vertical as shown in Photos 6, 7, 8 and 9. No seepage was observed on thesoil exposures. No warning signs or hoarding are present.
The park dedication at the west end of the site appears to have been used as a spoil depositionarea. Locally, slopes dip down towards Snake Bay Creek at about 55°to the horizontal.
3.2 Soil Sampling and Laboratory Testing
During our June 15 visit, six soil samples were collected. Two samples of the sand depositeddownstream of the spring were collected (Sa-1 and Sa-2). Two samples of the sand exposureat the west end of the site were also collected near Sta. 2+40 of the L-200 alignment (Sa-3 andSa-4) at about 1 and 2 m above the curb or about El. 45.5 and 46.5 m (Photos 6 and 7). A sandsample was also collected opposite Sta. 2+50 (Sa-5) about 2 to 3 m below the original groundsurface as shown in Photos 7 and 8. Sa-6 was collected from the soil exposure south of Lot 17(about Sta. 3+40, L-200) as shown in Photo 9.
All six samples were submitted for routine classification and moisture content testing. Gradationanalyses were also conducted to evaluate the particle size distributions. The results are shownon Figures ito 6.
In general, material collected in the deposition zone below the outlet from the spring was fineroverall than any of the 3 sand samples collected at the west end of the site. Figure 7 shows all6 particle distributions and summarizes the pertinent gradation parameters. Based on thecoefficient of uniformity (Cu), all of the samples have a relatively uniform particle size and areclassified as poorly graded. The mean grain size (D50) was about 0.18mm in the depositionzone (Sa-1 and Sa-2) and ranged from about 0.25 to 0.41 mm in the undisturbed sand depositat the west end of the site (Sa-3 to Sa-5).
3.3 Ground Penetrating Radar Survey
A geophysical survey using ground penetrating radar (GPR) was undertaken by TerraprobeGeoscience Corp. (Terraprobe) on June Sand 6, 2012. The GPR survey was conducted alongthe Gale Avenue North (L-100) and Seawatch Lane (L-200) alignments, a limited portion ofCrowston Road and on portions of Lots 27 and 28. The results are presented in Terraprobe’sJune 20, 2012 report (attached). In general, the GPR survey identified several anomalies asshown on Terraprobe’s Figure 1 and our Dwg. 14-214-2-1.
3.4 Land Survey
DOS engaged John Theed Land Surveying Inc. (Theed) to conduct a survey of the locations ofthe sinkhole and spring, patches/repairs in the roadways. and where the water goesunderground in the Crowston Road ditch. A copy of their survey drawing dated June 12, 2012is attached for reference.

3.5 Airphoto Interpretation
We carried out airphoto interpretation of stereo pairs of photos borrowed from the University ofBritish Columbia for the years 1947, 1976, 1980, 1998 and 2003. DOS provided us singleimage digital files for March 2009 and 2012. We have acquired stereo pairs of digital imagesfrom Integrated Mapping Technologies for March 27 (SRS 7264-59 and -60) and April 5, 2006(SRS 7276-130 and -131) and have also reviewed images on Google Earth for November 1,2004, June 23, 2006, September11, 2009 and July 8, 2010.
The airphotos from 2003 and earlier were reviewed to assess the pre-development siteconditions. In all the images, gullies are visible along (i) Snake Bay Creek at the west end ofthe site. (H) near the centre of the development in line with Lots 10 and 19 and (Hi) at the eastend in line with Crowston Road. When comparing the airphotos, we note that the gulliesgenerally appear to become more distinct with time suggesting some on-going erosionalprocesses.
The 2004 Google Earth image shows the site prior to development in a state similar to the 2003airphotos.
The 2006 images are of the development early in the construction phase. The centre gully ispartially infilled and the L-100 and L-200 roads and some of the rock stack walls appear to beunder construction. Several sinkhole-like features are also visible in the image as shown onPhoto 10. A sedimentation basin is visible near the southeast corner of the site in the vicinity ofthe recent Sta. 5+80, L-200 sinkhole.
A portion of the March 2009 image provided by DOS is reproduced on Photo 11. The photoshows house foundations on Lots 13 to 15, largely completed houses on Lots 19 to 21, andcompleted houses on Lots 25 to 27. The scarp-like feature at the southeast corner of Lot 21 isclearly visible in the image. Scarp-like features and/or signs of recent instability are visible atthe south end of Lot 18 and the north end of Lots 25 and 26. Numerous erosion featuresincluding rills (surficial erosion patterns), localized gullying and springs are visible at severallocations including Lots 1 to 5/6, 9 to 12, 15, 16 to 18 and to the south of the Phase 1development. Significant ground disturbance is visible south of the Sta. 5÷80, L-200 sinkholeon the proposed Lot 29 (Phase 2) and behind Lots 23 to 26 as shown on the photo. A relativelysmall asphalt patch is visible adjacent to Lot 15.
The 2010 Google Earth image shows houses on Lots 19 to 21 and Lots 25 to 27 (Photo 12).House foundations are visible on Lots 13 to 15 and Lot 23. Springs or erosion features arevisible near the toe of the fill on Lots 2 and 4. The asphalt patch adjacent to Lot 15 is visible asis the ground disturbance behind Lots 23 to 26. The scarp-like feature on Lot 21 is visible.
A portion of the March 2012 image provided by DOS is reproduced as Photo 13. The photoshows largely completed houses on Lots 7 and 8, the same house foundations on Lots 13 to 15as seen on the 2009 image1 completed houses on Lots 19 to 21 and Lots 23 to 27. The

scarp-like feature at the southeast corner of Lot 21 is still clearly visible in the image. While nosigns of recent instability are visible and vegetation has taken hold on most of the undevelopedlots, ercson features including rills, localized gullying and springs are visible at several locationsincluding the fill slope on Lots 1 to 6 and on Lots 9 to 12 as shown, Ground disturbance isvisible south of Lot 18 and behind Lots 23 to 26 as shown. Also visible are the majority of theasphalt patches and repairs shown on Theed’s drawing dated June 12, 2012. Of particularinterest is the patch adjacent to Lot 15 which appears to have quadrupled in size since the 2009image was taken.
3.6 Review of Available Geotechnical Information
In preparation of this letter, we were provided with the information listed in Table 1. Fordiscussion purposes. we will refer to the various documents by the issuer and date. Asdescribed below, geotechnical recommendations for design and construction of thedevelopment were documented in GeoTacTics reports dated September 30, 2004 and April 28,2006. GeoTacTics’ addendum to the April 28, 2006 report was issued on May 9, 2006 toaddress the issue of sinkholes that had developed during site grading work.
On behalf of DOS, TEL completed a geotechnical review of the stability of rock stack retainingwaIls adjacent to Lots 19 to 25 as documented in our report dated December 15, 2008. Our2008 review of the project relied on the above referenced reports to obtain an understanding ofthe site geology and construction history. No further geotechnical investigation was carried outas part of our 2008 review.
The documents described below include those that had information most relevant to developingour interpretation and recommendations.
3.6.1 Golder Associates Ltd. Study
May 1993 Report addressed to DOSThe May 1993 Golder study, completed as part of the Official Community Plan (OCP), classifiesthe site as Development Permit Area 5 (DPA 5), rocky beach front and upland slopes,Category b). natural hazard conditions. The report notes the following:
“The terrain within this Development Permit Area comprises predominantly steep rocky beachfront and upland slopes with a discontinuous surficial blanket or veneer of fine grained orgranular morainal soils or rubbly colluvium over bedrock. In the Snake Bay area, soils depositsare generally thicker and include a sand and gravel veneer of probable marine origin.
The soils are subject to potential shallow instability, small debris landslides and to minor stormwave erosion where they are exposed along the beach front. Creep and shallow instability in thesurficial soils were observed,”

The Golder report also notes that:
“Surficial runoff and seepage from perched groundwater tables have contributed to theformat/on of gullies within the thicker surficial soil deposits/n these areas”
The Golder report indicates that, prior to the issuance of a development permit, the potential forslope instability and the impact of the development should be addressed by a registeredprofessional with specific experience in geotechnical engineering and/or engineering geology.The Golder report also provides guidance with respect to geotechnical issues to be addressedincluding cut and fill stability, instability caused by groundwater seepage, erosion potential dueto waves or drainage flows, setback zones, vegetation protection, etc.
3.6.2 Terra Engineering Ltd. Studies
Copies of a Terra Engineering Ltd. (Terra) letter dated October 24, 1988 for the Norbert CraftSubdivision which included the subject property, an appendix dated March 6. 1989 for theSechelt/Snake Bay Retirement Development and a July 23. 1992 report for a proposedresidential subdivision at the north end of Snake Bay Road were provided for our review. Oneof the most significant findings of the Terra documents was that several test pits encountered‘sands in a wet state which resulted in sloughing of’ the test pit walls. Terra also noted that“these wet sands, if exposed, would be very unstable and subject to undermining if left open”and that they are located “in the area of Snake Bay Road down through the proposed Hotelarea to the waters edge.” Terra generally noted that “the majority of the site has good bearingfor single family residential type structures” and that “ground slopes can generally be consideredstable”. Terra provided some preliminary recommendations with regards to cut and fill slopesand indicated that “proper ground slope protection will be required to protect all newly createdslopes from surface erosion and washouts”.
3.6.3 Geotek Designs
Copies of a Geotek Designs (Geotek) letters dated October31 and December 2, 1997 for thesubject property were provided for our review. The letters were addressed to Sea ShoresDevelopment Corp. The two letters are generally very similar in content. One change regardingthe waterfront lots relates to driveway grades wherein the maximum decreases from 20% to15% from October to December. The other significant change is in the December versionwherein Geotek added a “conclusion” section. In this section, Geotek concluded that “the nativesoils and natural slopes of the proposed phase 4 development are presently in a highly stableconfiguration. There are no indications of any threat of landslide.” Geotek also states that “theland can safely be used for the use intended.”

36.4 GeoTacTics Correspondence
September 30, 2004 Report addressed to ConcordiaThis report presents the results of a site reconnaissance and a preliminary geotechnicalassessment for the subject site and provides geotechnical recommendations for sitedevelopment. The report describes the site conditions in detail including the presence of thesprings on the Lower Slope. GeoTacTics notes that the Lower Slope is experiencing on-goinggradual erosion of the surficial soil and localized shallow sloughing of steeper pitches. Theaverage rate of retreat of the existing slope is estimated to be less than 10 mm per year and it isnoted that this rate would be expected to increase due to increases in rainfall and/or removal ofvegetation cover. The report notes that “slope retreat during a reasonable service life (60 to80 years) of a residential structure would be unlikely to encroach more than I m into the setbackzone.” The report also recommends no tree cutting or clearing in the shoreline environmentalcovenant areas.
The report recommends that site specific measures “should be implemented to deal with theactive spring areas on the Lower Slope” and provides preliminary guidance regarding suchmeasures. Finally, the report indicates that, provided the geotechnical recommendations arefollowed, “the property can be subdivided and safely used for the intended purposes.”
July 27, 2005 Memorandum addressed to ConcordiaThe memorandum describes a July 22 site visit during which heavy seepage was observedexiting the slope along the L-200 (between Sta. 1+20 and 1+50) and associated slope instabilityon Lot 15. The memorandum also indicates that, west of about Lot 25 (Sta. 2+00), activeseepage occurs along the L-100 alignment and that a number of drainage courses havedeveloped that carry the seepage across the alignment.
July 31, 2005 Memorandum addressed to ConcordiaThe memorandum describes a July 27 site visit. The memorandum is silent on seepage andslope instability issues.
August 12, 2005 Memorandum addressed to ConcordiaThe memorandum describes July 31, August 7 and 11 site visits and several on-going issuesincluding a sinkhole that developed at about Sta. 5+20 on the L-200. The sinkhole diameterwas apparently about 20 feet (6 m) and was reported to have been excavated out to a depth of18 feet (5.5 m). We believe that this is likely the sinkhole labelled “E” on GeoTacTics’ Figure 2(attached) of their April 2006 report.
August 27, 2005 Memorandum addressed to ConcordiaThis memorandum describes an August25 site visit and the repairs of the sinkhole at Sta. 5+20of the L-200 which included placement of a layer of mass concrete at the base and placement ofcompacted “glacio-marine sediments” above.

The memorandum describes on-going challenges and recommends placement of a 3 inch(75 mm) minus rock drainage blanket beneath the round-about area as per Sketch P25-2(attached).
September 17. 2005 Memoranda addressed to Concord/aOne of the two memoranda dated September 17 describes a September 8 site visit and notesthat, as the recommended 3 inch minus rock for the drainage blanket was no longer available,3/4 inch (19 mm) clear crush gravel could be substituted. It also notes that new areas ofseepage have been encountered near Sta. 2+60 of the L-200.
The second memorandum describes the results of a September 15 site visit and a section of theslope above Sta. 2+60 of the L-100 that had slid, The slide was about 20 m in length. Thespring at the toe of the slope was reported to have a flow of 100 to 150 gpm. The memorandumprovides guidance for removal of the slide debris and recommendations for controlling thespring using filter fabric and clear crushed gravel.
September 26, 2005 Memorandum addressed to Concord/aThe memorandum describes a September 25 site visit. The memorandum is silent on seepageand slope instability issues.
October 5, 2005 Memorandum addressed to Concord/aThis memorandum describes a September 30 site visit conducted in the company of MahmoudMahmoud, P.Eng. of Global Earth Solutions Geotech Inc. (GES). Reference is made to a GESsite reconnaissance report but no copy was provided for our review. The purpose of the visitwas to assess tension cracks observed at Sta. 4÷40 of the L-200 and about 40-50 m long onSeptember28 and provide recommendations to address the very large groundwater flows at thetoe of the slope.
The memorandum also describes the large spring at Sta. 3+00 of the L-100 with an estimatedflow of about 200 gpm and indicates that the volume of sand being washed out had increasedsubstantially since formation to the equivalent of about 70 m3 per day.
This memorandum provides recommendations to address the spring and comprised extending abuttress and filter at least 10 m along the toe of the slope at this location and across the entirewidth of the road. The buttress and filter is described as a layer of geogrid placed on native soil.covered with layers of granular fill with nominal particle sizes ranging from 19 mm to 300 mm.Recommendations were provided to extend this buttress and filter to new areas as springsdevelop. The memo also provides recommendations for a drainage blanket to be constructedacross the full width of the road so that the water can be collected and conveyed from the springto the beach.

October 7, 2005 Memorandum addressed to Concord/aThis memorandum describes October 4 and 7 site visits. The memorandum notes that thetension crack described in the previous memorandum had not significantly changed except thattwo sinkholes had developed along the tension crack at the L-200 level, one at the crest and theother just below. The location’s were not specified by GeoTacTics and are therefore not shownon our drawing. It is inferred that these sinkholes were above the Sta. 3+00 spring on theL-100.
Two other sinkholes were reported. One was on the west site of the drainage course at the eastend of the property and the other near Sta. 2+10 of the L-100. We believe that these two areshown on GeoTacTics’ Figure 2,
October 10, 2005 Letter addressed to Concord/aThis letter was prepared in response to an August 30, 2005 letter from DOS and includes theJuly 27 to October 7, 2005 memoranda.
April 28, 2Q06 Report (including April 30, 2006 Cover Letter) addressed to Concord/aThis report includes test pits from a February 17, 2005 investigation report and provides anupdated estimated average rate of recession of 6 to 12 inches per year. The report alsodescribes the slope instability, springs and sinkholes and provides geotechnicalrecommendations for site development and a supplementary investigation. Figure 2 of thereport shows the geology and approximate locations of 8 sinkholes.
The report indicates that further geotechnical investigation is contemplated and indicates thatpiezometers will be installed.
The report concludes that “provided the site preparation, earthworks and foundationconstruction follow the genera! guidelines outlined above, the property can be safely used forthe intended purposes.” The report also notes that “residences constructed in this subdivisionare expected to be safe against reasonably conceivable geotechnical hazards, including slopeinstability, erosion and flooding” and that “the probability of occurrence of geotechnical hazardsis estimated to be less than 10 percent in 50 years”.
May 9. 2005 Letter addressed to Concord/aThis letter was issued as an addendum to the April 28 report to address the issue of sinkholes.The letter indicates that the majority of the erosion cavities occur in the fine sand layer cappedby glacial till and that the sinkholes have varied in diameter from 100 mm to greater than 6 m.GeoTacTics describes methods used to deal with sinkholes wherein the first involvesexcavation and removal of the entire sinkhole and the second involves cleaning the debris out ofthe sinkhole to expose the neck at the base followed by placement of mass concrete and thencompacted fill. This method is referred to as “plugging the neck’. The letter indicates that bothmethods will continue to be used where sinkholes are encountered. From this we infer that bothmethods have been used on the site to remediate sinkholes.

In the July inspectionsummary section. the letter describes control of a significant spring on Lot 5 and a sinkhole thathad developed in early June on Lot 29 of the future Phase 2 development. The letter notes that.on July 18. the sinkhole was 35 to 40 feet (11 to 12 m) in diameter and that it had subsided by 6to 8 feet (1.8 to 2.4 m) at its centre. The letter indicates that, on July 23, GeoTacTics observedthe excavation, plugging and filling of the sinkhole. The final extent of the excavated area wasapproximately 10.5 m deep and 12 m in diameter. The letter indicates that “the neck at thebase of the sinkhole, approxImately 1.5 m south of the edge of the L-200, was plugged byplacing several large boulders to create a bridge over the neck of the sinkhole and that theboulders were then capped with about 10 m3 of concrete and backfilled with native glacial till.”The letter also notes that the sinkhole was backfilled to the same elevation as the curb.
In the August inspection summary section, the letter notes deficiencies in the construction ofstacked rock retaining walls adjacent to the L-100 along Lots 24 through 27.

September 27, 2011 Letter addressed to ConcordiaThis letter describes a September 15, 2011 site visit to review the temporary excavated slope atthe southwest corner of the development. The letter notes that ‘no deep-seated instability hasoccurred in the slope since the slope has been excavated’. The letter concludes that the‘overall stability of the excavated slope is satisfactory” but that fragments of rock, gravel andsand will continue to fall and/or roll down”. For the temporary configuration, GeoTacTicsrecommends trimming the upper 0.6 m of the slope and vegetating other areas. For permanentslopes, GeoTacTics recommended flattening slopes to 2H:1V or flatter.

4. ENGINEERING ASSESSMENT
4.1 General
The development has experienced many geotechnical challenges in the form of springs, erosioncavities and sinkholes, slope instability and surface erosion since commencement ofconstruction. In particular, previous reports by others, as well as early reports by GeoTacTics,identified groundwater and the risk of problems where the sand is encountered below thegroundwater table. Below we provide our assessment of the sinkholes and other geotechnicalissues.

4.2 General Geological Processes
42.1 Geological Process
The sinkholes generally appear to be related to springs and subsurface erosion of the sand atthis site. Springs! cavities and sinkholes are the result of the same geological process and mayalso lead to surface erosion and slope instability. Cavities and sinkholes can be formed eitherdue to piping or internal erosion.
The piping process starts when water exits the ground with sufficient energy (hydraulic gradient)to erode the soil at the ground surface. This erosion of soil at the surface decreases the lengthof the seepage path thus increasing the hydraulic gradient. This results in a continuousretrogressive process of erosion at the exposed face. In some instances, the erosion can causea distinct cavity or pipe. Once initiated, the cavity or pipe concentrates the flow and seepagewhich, in turn, causes the length of the cavity or pipe to increase with ever increasing flows. Asdescribed by Terzaghi, Peck and Mesri (1996), “if a spring is powerful enough to start erosion inthe first place, the erosion will almost certainly become more ser/ous as time goes on, becausethe flow from a given spring increases with the length of the eroded tunnel.” The piping processonly stops when the hydraulic gradient falls to a low enough level. Piping is evident where thedischarge from springs contains silt and sand, and often may be turbid or muddy.
If the pipes are sufficiently shallow and large enough, a sinkhole or sinkholes may form at theground surface when the pipe cavity collapses. This only fills the pipe cavity in the area of thecollapse and the pipe remains open elsewhere. The open pipe may still be susceptible tocollapse resulting in the formation of other sinkholes. The pipe also remains a preferential flowpath and may be the parent of other pipes.
To prevent piping, properly engineered filters can be constructed to prevent soil erosion wherethe water is exiting, or has the potential to exit, the ground. Alternatively, the hydraulic gradientscan be lowered by installing wells or other dewatering measures.
Conversely, sinkholes may also form as a result of internal erosion wherein only the smallestsoil particles are eroded from the soil matrix. Internal erosion generally occurs in soil with awide gradation or a gap gradation wherein the smallest particles of soil can be transported bywater flow past larger particles. Internal erosion is typically a problem in man-made,manufactured soils and mechanically placed soils where segregation can occur. Uniform soils.such as typical beach sand, are not susceptible to internal erosion.
Springs will also contribute to surface erosion leading to slope instability resulting from highgroundwater lev&s associated with the springs, and unstable ground due to the formation ofunderground cavities and sinkhoies.

4.3 Specific Geotechnical Issues
4.3.1 Spring Locations
The approximate locations of several springs are shown on GeoTacTics’ Figure 2 and our Dwg.14-214-2-1. GeoTacTics reported significant springs on Lots 5 and Lots 9/10, at Sta. 2+60 and3+100 of the L-100 alignment and between Sta. 1+20 and 1+50 of the L+200 alignment.Significant seepage was also noted west of about Lot 24 or Sta. 2+00 of the L-100 alignment.4.3.2 Internal Erosion
We have assessed the potential for internal erosion (the potential for soil particles to move pastone another) of the recently collected soil samples. Using the criteria described in Terzaghi etal. and Kenney and Lau (1985), all of the samples collected are not considered susceptible tointernal erosion. Intuitively we feel that this is reasonable finding given the depositional natureof the deposits and that the materials are relatively uniform.
4.3.3 Erosion Potential of the Sand
The results of TEL’s gradation testing indicate that the native sand is predominantly fine grainedand is relatively uniform. Briaud (2011) classifies fine sand as very high erodibility and mediumsand as high erodibility. Briaud shows that the critical velocity to initiate erosion is relatively lowcompared to other soil types. As such, relatively small exit seepage gradients are required todislodge the sand particles and initiate the piping process. The risk of this behaviour was notedin the Terra reports for this site and Golder OCP study.
4.3.4 Sinkholes
Given the low potential for internal erosion of the soils present at the site, we believe the mostlikely cause of the sinkholes is collapse of piping cavities. Sinkholes have been identified at thelocations shown on GeoTacTics’ Figure 2 and, since April 2006, on Lot 29 and in the vicinity ofLots 19 to 21 as shown on Photo 10 and Dwg. 14-214-2-1. Sinkhole repairs have beendescribed as complete removal and replacement or plugging the neck’ with concrete andplacement of compacted fill above as was done on Lot 29 and at Sta. 5+20 of the L-200. The‘plugging the neck” repair leaves an unfilled cavity downstream of the sinkhole which will still bevulnerable to future collapse. In this instance, we believe that the recent sinkhole at Sta. 5+80,L-200 may be related to the roof collapse of the unfilled cavity left over from the sinkhole repairon Lot 29.
Given that collapse of an existing cavity roof may be responsible for the Sta. 5÷80. L-200sinkhole, this suggests that cavities connected to other sinkholes repaired in the same mannermay also be at risk of collapse. Only one other sinkhole has been clearly identified in theGeoTacTics correspondence as being repaired by ‘plugging the neck’. This suggests that thereis a risk of additional sinkholes occurring along the horizontal erosion cavities situated to the

THURBER
north and possibly to the south of the Sta. 5+20 and 5+80/Lot 29 sinkholes and possiblyelsewhere.
While we suspect that the Lot 3 spring and Ste. 5+80 sinkhole are connected, we can not becertain of this. They may in fact be related simply by changes in the groundwater regime. It isinteresting to note that the large spring on LotS and the Lot 29 sinkhole described inGeoTacTics’ August 31, 2007 letter seem to have appeared at about the same time. We areconcerned that significant groundwater flow carrying sand has continued to exit from the Lot 3spring following the sinkhole formation and this suggests that the cavity may still be expandingin size.
All sinkhole repair records should be reviewed in detail to more accurately locate the sinkholesand to determine which repair option was employed at each location.
4.3.5 Filters and Drainage Blankets
Gradation analyses were conducted on several recently collected samples of native soilincluding material collected in the deposition zone below the spring on Lot 3. No samples of thefilters used during construction are available for our assessment. Review of the GeoTacTicscorrespondence indicates that different materials were used for filter construction and suggeststhat construction of the filter/drainage blanket was difficult. In particular, controlling/containing anumber of the springs was generally described as very challenging. Even if it can be shownthat the filter design was adequate to control piping, challenges faced during construction mayhave rendered the filters inadequate or may have allowed erosion cavities to form below orbehind the filter/drainage blanket.
GeoTacTics’ September 15, 2005 memo recommending placement of a filter comprising filterfabric retained by clear crush gravel is likely adequate to prevent further erosion and piping ofthe sand. However, the filter and buttress system using geogrid and granular fill as described inGeoTacTics’ October 5, 2005 memo is not considered an appropriate filter design to preventerosion and piping of the fine sand.
We understand that drainage blankets were used throughout the site, and generally comprised75mm or 19 mm clear crush gravel rock fill placed on native soil, with finer site grading fillplaced on top. We interpret that these drainage blankets are intended to convey water alongthe top of the native soil. It is unclear specifically if these drainage blankets are continuous, andon what types of native soil they were placed. If drainage blankets were placed on the fine sandlayer, there still may be surficial erosion of the fine sand layer at the interface of the drainageblanket and native soil as the fine sand and clear crush are not gradationally compatible. Sincethe 19 mm clear crush is a relatively uniform product, it is not expected to be susceptible tointernal erosion. However, the 75 mm minus rock fill will require testing to assess itssusceptibility to internal erosion and its compatibility with the adjacent materials.

By inspection, the majority of the asphalt repairs shown on Theed’s drawing and Dwg.14-214-2-1 occur between Sta. 2÷00, L-100 and Sta. 1+50. L-200 where drainageblankets/granular filters were reportedly used during construction. We believe that some of themovement observed at the road surface may be due to fine sand migrating beneath or throughthe drainage blankets/granular filters or possibly related to internal erosion of the drainageblanket/granular filter.
4.4 Crowston Road Ditch
Contour mapping and review of the airphotos suggests that the Crowston Road ditch alignmentmay have been altered during construction. Water in the Crowston Road ditch currentlydisappears into the ground before reaching the culvert inlet. We are uncertain if the water isflowing in the backfill of the former gully or if the water is flowing through a cavity within thenative materials. If the water is flowing within the backfill, the likelihood of formation of a largecavity and sinkhole is relatively small. However, if the water is forming a cavity within the nativematerials, the risk of forming a large cavity, and ultimately a sinkhole, is significant
4.5 Slope Stability
Issues of slope instability have been reported on Lots 1, 2, 9. 10, 15, 18. 19, 20, 21. 22 and 25.Some of the reported instabilities occurred during construction whereas some instancesoccurred on the completed slopes. Furthermore, it appears that spoil material has been placedin the park area at the west end of the site adjacent to the deeply incised Snake Bay Creekravine. Also, either the slope at the southeast corner of Lot 21 has failed or construction wasnever completed. At a minimum, a more detailed slope stability assessment is warranted at thissite to determine if the stockpiled material adjacent to Snake Bay Creek needs to be removedand remedial measures implemented for the south slope of Lot 21.
4.6 Stacked Rock Retaining Walls
We have not revisited the stacked rock retaining walls in detail at this time. However, in ourDecember 15, 2008 report to DOS, we expressed concerns regarding the walls at the north endof Lots 22 through 25 and also the material used to backfill the rock walls. We believe that itwould be prudent to revisit our assessment given the findings of our previous report andobservations since that time.
TEL does not have expertise in safety engineering. However, we believe that fall hazards existat many of the lots including Lots 19 through 28. The requirement for safety rails or fencesshould be assessed.
4.7 Shoreline Recession
GeoTacTics’ September 2004 suggested that shoreline recession would likely be less than 1 mover a 60 to 80 year design life. In the April 2006 report, the yearly rate of recession increased

from 1 mm to about 150 to 300mm (6 to 12 inches) per year which would be the equivalent of 9to 24 m over a 60 to 80 year design life. If the 2006 estimate is correct, the whole developmentcould be at risk in a relatively short period unless significant shoreline protection measures areundertaken. This should be reviewed in more detail.
5. RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 General
As noted above, although the current focus of our work is on the sinkholes, the developmenthas experienced many geotechnical challenges since commencement of the work, Below weprovide our interpretation of the risk of other sinkholes forming. potential mitigation options andrecommended supplementary investigation.
5.2 Risk of Sinkhole Reoccurrence
Given that the recent Sta. 580, L-200 sinkhole may be related to the previous repair of thesinkhole on Lot 29 and that at least one other erosion cavity is known to exist at Sta. 5+20 of theL-200. the formation of other sinkholes within the development should be anticipated. If othersinkholes were repaired in the same manner as the Lot 29 sinkhole by “plugging the neck”, thelikelihood of the presence of erosion cavities and sinkholes is even greater. The timing ofsinkhole collapse events is impossible to predict given the available information. However, weexpect that they will occur.
5.3 Mitigation Options
Mitigation of the risk of sinkhole development related to existing erosion cavities would requirethat the existing erosion cavities be properly infilled. However, repair of the erosion cavities isexpected to be challenging as the erosion cavities are expected to be relatively deep anddifficult to detect. While the GPR survey identified a number of anomalies in the field thatshould be investigated in more detail, we are uncertain if these are related to erosion cavities orto other features, Several mitigation options are available to address the erosion cavities andthe risk of sinkhole formation, All mitigation options will require additional geotechnical,hydrogeological and geophysical investigation for detailed assessment and all options carrydifferent levels of risk.
Potential mitigation options for the Sta. 5+80 sinkhole and all sinkholes repaired using the“plugging the neck” approach include complete excavation of the sinkhole and associatederosion cavity and backfilling or possibly grouting. To facilitate this work, temporary dewateringof the sand layer using a series of wells or similar will be required.
Other erosion cavities may still exist or may be at risk of forming. We suspect that the granularfilters and drainage blanket may not be functioning as intended given the performance of theon-site roads, particularly on Gale Avenue North between Lots 24 and 19 and on Seawatch

Lane adjacent to Lot 15. To mitigate the risk of development of erosion cavities, groundwatermust be intercepted before it can exit through the granular filter. Alternatively, the granular filtershould be reconstructed. The former option would require construction of a permanentdewatering system and the latter a temporary dewatering system while the existing filtermaterials are removed and replaced with properly designed granular filters. We expect thatthese approaches could be potentially quite disruptive and may require temporary support andpossibly relocation of some of the existing services, and possibly homes, during construction ofthe remedial works. These options should be further assessed following completion of asupplementary investigation.
5.4 Slope Stability
As noted in Section 4.5. a more detailed slope stability assessment is warranted at this site todetermine if the stockpile in the park area should be removed and to develop remedialmeasures for the south slope of Lot 21. In the interim, we recommend that a safety fence beinstalled at the south end of Lot 21 adjacent to the scarp. Also, we suggest that hoarding orfencing be installed in the southwest corner of the site adjacent to the near vertical cuts in thesand layer to keep the public away from the vertical slope hazard.
5.5 Stacked Rock Retaining Walls
As noted in Section 4.6, we have not revisited the stacked rock retaining walls in detail at thistime. However in our December 15, 2008 report to DOS, we expressed concerns regarding thewalls at the north end of Lots 22 through 25 and also the material used to backfill the rock walls.Given that slope instability has occurred at the north end of Lots 25 and 26 and the formersinkholes at the south end of Lot 19, north end of Lot 24 and on Lot 21, we believe that it wouldbe prudent to revisit our assessment of the stacked rock retaining walls in the near future.
To mitigate the potential fall hazard, the requirement for safety rails or fences should beassessed for all of the stacked rock retaining walls within the development.
5.6 Shoreline Recession
GeoTacTics predicts significant shoreline recession at this site. We recommend that this beassessed in more detail.
5.7 Supplementary Investigation
We recommend that additional geotechnical. hydrogeological and geophysical investigation beundertaken. A phased approach should be considered to build upon the findings of each of thephases. At a minimum, the investigation should be developed to determine the stratigraphy andhydrogeology of the site in sufficient detail to understand the groundwater flow and how tocontrol it. The investigation shoud include collection of samples of the fine sand and thegranular filter and drainage blanket materials used during construction control seepage. If

possible, at least one of the erosion cavities should be investigated to determine its size and itsimpact on the surrounding soil.
AdditionalVancouverimaging for
geophysical testing could also be considered. Frontier Geosciences of Northsuggest using a combination of streaming potential and ohmmapper resistivitydetection and delineation of elevated seepage conditions in the soils.
5.8 On-going Inspections
In the interim, we recommend that DOS continue to regularly inspect the roads for signs ofmovement and the slope for springs and that TEL inspect the site intermittently with DOSpersonnel.

Re: GPR Survey at Concordia Homes, Gale Ave North, Sechelt, BC
BACKC;RouNL)
Ferraprobe Geoscience Corp. (‘lerraprohe) was commissioned by Ihurber Engineering lid. (‘Ihurber) toundertake a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey at the (‘oncordia Homes, Phase I, in Gale Ave North,Sechelt, BC.
The objective of the survey was to determine the presence of any possible void or other anomaly beneath thesurface of the road. An anomaly is an urea in the suhsurlhce where the electrical properties are dil’Ibrent thanits surroundings.
The field data collection was conducted on June 5 and June 6, 2012. This report summarizes the technologyoverview. (he survey methodology and the results.
GPR TECHNIQUE
Ground penetrating radar is the general term applied to techniques that employ radio waves to profilestructures and features in the subsurfiwe. Although typically used for ground (soils) applications, (IPR can
he used to identify Features beneath other surfaces. GPR method is based on emission, reflection anddetection of electromagnetic waves. A short pulse of high frequency (10—2600 MHz) electromagnetic energyis produced and transmitted into the ground or other iiedium (i.e. eonerele). The pulse spreads into the
subsurilice materials and is affected by the properties of the surrounding material. Some of the energy is
reflected at the interllice between nialerials of’ dilIbrent dielectric constants. A receiver records 11w rellectedenergy at the surhice. Processed radar data are plotted as surveyed horizontal distance (metres) versus two—
way travel time iii nanoseconds (21) mode). When C PR data are collected in a grid, 31) data processing andinterpretation can be applied.

(3 PR Cal) locate both metallic and non—metallic targets. Penetration depth and detectability of targetsdepend on antenna freclLlency, target orientation and the electrical properties of the host material.
ClR FIELI) StJRVEY
A dual frequency (700MHz and 250MHz) (1 P1< systetii by I DX was used for the survey. I )ue to the enormityolthe survey area, the area was divided into 3 different segment. ‘Iheir approximate size of cue!) segment isshown in Table I.Longitudinal lines were collected along the actual road with 0.5 meters apart from each other. ‘l’ransverselines were collected every 5 meters perpendicular to the longitudinal lines. Please note, that Segment #10,#12 and #13 have different line spacing due to the site conditions.

Data processing was done by the lerraprobe’s propnetary RadArt processing and analysis software package.liie Following processing sleps were carried our
• Thrnporal and 2D spatial filters
• Gain recovery• Amplitude analysis• Time—Depth conversion
The interpretation was done manually by ident i l’ing the areas showing relatively high amplitude response.Please note that the anomalies can he caused by numerous reasons. including hut not limited to: differentelectrical properties in the host materiaL (i.e. different water content. di Flërent minerals), void space.embedded human-made objects (tank, concrete, metal or plastic pipes etc).
GPR REStJLTS
The dual frequency GPR system provided sufficient data quality, although the signal penetration depth waslimited to approximately 3Mm probably due to the soil conditions. Figure I shows the approximate locationof the survey area as well as the approximate location oF the G PR cross sections that are shown in Figure 2to 14.The results can he summnrized as follows:
• There appear to be sonic significant anomalies of di Ft&ent sizes. ‘[he localion of each anomaly ismarked with a red oval on the GPR cross sections in Figure 2 to Figure 14. The depth scale of thecross section is exaggerated. The depth of the anomalies is generally within (lie first 3 meters belowthe surface.
• In Segment #1 (Figure 2)the marked anomaly is located in the area where an existing sinkhole wasdiscovered and filled hack prior to the (iPR survey.
• Segment #9 (Figure II) was surveyed in 11w round about around the island. 11w start location ismarked with pink arrow with the direction ol’ the line both on the layout (Figure 1) and in Figure IIabove the GPR cross section.
• The exact location of each anomaly can be marked off on site if adequate drawings are madeavailable.
CONCLUSIONS AM) RECOMMENI)ATIONS
[he true nature of the marked anomalies cannot he verified based on the (JPR data only. It is recommendedto mark all the anomalies on site and correlate with the existing geological features and with the existingman made structures, i.e. manholes and pipes. Also it is recommended to excavate or drill the anomalies inorder to verify their nattire,If required, a lower frequency (3 PR survey can be carried out in the area to extend the depth and the area of
[lie investigation.

LIMITATIONS
The depth to subsurthee i’eat ures derived from ground penetrating radar surveys arc generally accepted asaccurate to within ten to twenty percent of the true depths to the boundaries. Since the depth scale wascalculated using average velocities it could oniy he used as a guideline and not as accurate measurement.flie results are interpretive iii nature and are considered to be a reasonable accurate presentation of existing
conditions within (lie I un itations of the radar proW ing method.
11w in lbrmation in this report is based upon radar measurements, the in lonuation provided to us and our
interpretation ol’ the data.
