SCOPE
The following report presents the results of our geologic and
mineral evaluation for Grieser Minor Subdivision, a proposed
subdivision situate in the East Half of the East Half of the
Northeast Quarter of Section 21, Township 4 North, Range 65 West of
the 6th Prime Meridian, Weld County, Colorado.
It is our understanding that the 40± acre site is to be divided
into five (5) residential lots ranging in size from 4 . 3 acres to
20 . 0 acres . The purpose of this investigation is to identify
potential geologic hazards and potential mineral resources which
may conflict with the development intended. The conclusions and
recommendations presented in this report are based upon the
acquired field data, review of the available literature, and
previous experience with similar geologic conditions in this area.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The site is located southeast of LaSalle, east of County Road No.
41 on County Road No. 44 . The parcel has slight to moderate
slopes, generally to the west and north and is moderately to
sparsely vegetated with grasses, weeds, and yucca. A residence and
outbuildings are located on the future Lot 5 . Two (2) oil/gas
wells are also located on the property.

972491
SITE INVESTIGATION
The site was visually inspected on February 14 , 1997 . The
locations of geologic features are approximate and should be
considered only to the degree implied by the methods used to make
those measurements . A preliminary radiation survey was also
conducted at this time .
GEOLOGY
The proposed site lies near the eastern edge of the Colorado
Piedmont Section of the Great Plains Physiographic Province . The
Colorado Piedmont is an elongated trough in the Great Plains,
adjacent to the Front Range of the Southern Rockies . The Colorado
Piedmont was formed when uplift of the area in Miocene-Eocene times
(20 - 50 million years ago) produced an increase of stream erosion
resulting in scouring next tot he foothills and outlying areas .
The Piedmont is bordered by the southern Rockies to the west, Great
Plains escarpment to the northeast, and Palmer Divide to the south.
Structurally, the site lies in the Denver Basin, which is a thick
accumulation of Paleozoic and Mesozoic Era sediments involved with
down warping in the basin area and uplift of the adjacent
highlands . It is our understanding that faulting has not taken
place in the recent historic past in this area . This area is
2
972491
classified as being in Seismic Zone 1 (Uniform Buiding Code-
Chapter 23) .
The upper elevations of this site are overlain with gravel and
alluvium of Pleistocene age . These soils consist of sand, silt,
clay, gravel, and cobbles . Our field observations indicate that
calcium carbonate is crusted on most of the aggregate . Some of the
aggregate consist of partly decomposed sandstone. The thickness of
these deposits were not determined.
The Upper Cretaceous Laramie Formation underlies the surficial
soils . The Laramie Formation consists of carbonaceous shale,
claystone, sandstone, and thin beds of coal . The Laramie Formation
has been described as an area with potential for yielding uranium.
The thickness of the Laramie Formation is in the order of 330 feet
to 600 feet in this area .
POTENTIAL GEOLOGIC HAZARDS A N D
RECOMMENDATIONS
The claystones of the Laramie Formation and associated soils may be
potentially expansive . The effects of the potentially swelling
and/or collapsible soil and rock can be minimized by careful
planning prior to construction at the site . A geotechnical and/or
site specific geologic investigation should be conducted at each
3
972,191
site to identify these conditions . As previously stated, the
Laramie Formation may have the potential for yielding uranium . We
recommend that a radiation survey be conducted in excavations
exposing any part of this formation to determine if a radiation
hazard exists . Mitigation recommendations may be made at that time .
We further recommend that preliminary radon mitigation measures be
incorporated in the construction of the homes at the site .
SOIL DESCRIPTIONS
The Soil Conservation Service describes three (3) different soil
types at the site . A map showing the locations and a description
of the soils are included at the end of this report (Figure No. 2
and attachments) . Most of the soils are sandy loams . The majority
of the site is located in areas with slow to medium runoff and low
hazards for wind and water erosion.
POTENTIAL MINERAL RESOURCES
The Colorado Geological Survey describes part of this site as
having upland gravel deposits . It was observed in the field that
these deposits have significant amounts of calcium carbonate
deposits and decomposed rock. Therefore, we feel that these
deposits are not of economical importance as a mineral resource .
4
972491
CONCLUSION
Potential geologic hazards such as expansive soils may be located
in various areas of the property. Care should be taken in choosing
each building site and designing the roadways . Follow-up
inspections, radiation survey, and recommendations should be
conducted as necessary for each building site . Economic mineral
resources were not found in the property.
In conclusion, we feel that the development intended is compatible
with the geologic conditions at the site provided the
recommendations in this report are met .
The data presented herein were collected to help determine the
feasibility of this project . Professional judgments on design
alternatives and criteria are presented in this report . These are
based on evaluation of technical information gathered, partly on
our understanding of the characteristics of the development
proposed, and partly on our experience with geologic conditions in
the area . We do not guarantee the performance of the project in
any respect, only that our engineering work and judgments rendered
meet the standard of care of our profession.
