EXHIBIT C
Plan of Control
1. Site Description and Geologic Hazard. The site proposed
for development of Tentative Tract 14398 in the City of San Juan
Capistrano is located within a large regional area known to contain
geologic hazards. Topographically, the area is characterized by a
series of relatively steep natural slopes, ridgelines and deep
canyon areas. The geologic unit which underlies the site is the
late Miocene to early Pliocene aged Capistrano Formation. Geologic
hazards known to exist in this general area include ancient
landslides, thick deposits of compressible alluvium in canyon
bottoms, and colluvial soils on natural slope areas. In addition,
a series of inactive faults have been mapped throughout the region.
The soils which comprise the Capistrano Formation in general
consist of siltstones, sandstones, and claystones. In particular,
the siltstone and claystone units are prone to slope instability
when exposed in a slope face. These soils are also generally
highly expansive and can cause distress to at -grade improvements if
not addressed.
Prior to development of Tract 14398, a geotechnical investigation
was performed in accordance with the current standards of care for
the geotechnical profession in Southern California and the
guidelines of the City of San Juan Capistrano. This investigation
' identified geologic hazards on the site and provided
recommendations to mitigate the known geotechnical hazards. Site
mitigation will include removal and recompaction of potentially
compressible soils in areas of proposed development, complete
removal of the ancient landslides, the stabilization of selected
proposed cut slopes, control of surface runoff, installation of
subdrains to minimize the accumulation of ground water and
reinforcement of fill slopes having inclinations steeper than
gradients of 2:1 (horizontal to vertical). Geologic mapping and
observation during site grading to identify the known and possible
other geologic hazards will be performed.
In addition, other geologic hazards resulting in part from site
development will be present. Infilling of deep canyon areas (which
will buttress natural slopes) creates a potential for some fill
settlement. Recommended mitigation for fill settlement will likely
include placement of the fill at moisture contacts above the soils
optimum moisture content, increased compactive effort (i.e., fills
placed at greater than 90 percent minimum relative compaction),
installation of subdrains and the installation and monitoring of
settlement monuments to determine the time period required to allow
settlement of the deep fills to occur prior to construction. In
addition to anticipated differential settlement, the onsite soils
are likely to be very highly expansive. Soils such as these are
likely to be prone to some slope creep when exposed in and/or near
a slope face. In order to minimize the effects of possible slope
creep and expansive soils, structural setbacks from tops of slopes,
FS2\068\022154.0010\2189968.2 x03/12/96
RM
increased or special reinforcement of foundations and slabs, and
presaturation of slab subgrade soils are recommended. Anticipated
differential settlements and applicable geotechnical parameters are
also provided to the project structural and civil engineers for
their consideration.
Site development will also include the construction of a number of
lots at the base of steep, narrow small tributing canyons.
Geotechnical analysis indicates the mud flow hazards on the site
are considered low. However, the mud flow potential is greater
during times of intense rainfall episodes and especially after the
slopes are disturbed or denuded by fire. To minimize the potential
adverse affects of mudflows, a series of debris fences and
catchment areas may be utilized.
A more complete discussion of the site geology hazards that may
impact the site are presented in the geotechnical reports for the
project. These reports are on file and available for review at the
City of San Juan Capistrano.
2. Geologic Hazard Potential. The city has recognized that
geologic hazards do exist in the area and approved the geotechnical
reports which provide recommendations and solutions to these
concerns. The city has also recognized that the recommended
solutions are based on the current level of technology and
standards of care. In addition, the recommendations presented in
the project geotechnical reports are intended to reduce the
potential for futu geotechnical concerns but cannot eliminate all
future risk. Recognizing that there will always be a potential for
a geologic hazard Ito occur, the city has requested that a hazard
abatement district be established to correct any future problems
that may occur on the site.
3. Plan for Control. In the event that a geologic hazard
were to occur, a plan for control and mitigation of the condition
shall be established. Because all known geologic hazards will be
mitigated in accordance with current standards during construction,
the hazards which may require future mitigation or control are
unknown. Therefore, in the event a geologic hazard is identified,
the plan for control will be to retain a qualified geotechnical
consultant approved by the city to develop a plan of control
appropriate for the identified hazard which describes in detail,
the geologic hazards, their location and affected area and a plan
for prevention, mitigation, abatement and control of such hazards.
Potential techniques in this regard include identification and
monitoring of slide areas, slide removal or recompaction, and if
and to the extent appropriate, the construction of debris basins,
benches, retaining walls and other buttressing devices.
