at select locations. Provide a total of seven (7) borings to a depth of 15 feet along the proposed
pipeline corridors to each tank site. During drilling, obtain soil samples for testing using 3-inch
diameter Shelby tubes for cohesive soils and using a 2-inch diameter split -barrel sampler for non -
Page 9 of 22
cohesive soils. Perform Texas Cone Penetrometer (TCP) tests in rock and rock -like material.

Sieve), moisture contents, pressure swell tests, and unconfined compression tests. Review subsurface
conditions and soil properties found by the field and laboratory work and discuss the implications for
design with FNI engineers. FNI will prepare a technical memorandum of the geotechnical
investigation for each tank bid package (4 total technical memoranda) presenting the boring
locations, boring logs, lab test results and a discussion of general subsurface conditions at the site
