The following is a summary of our findings: OBSERVATIONS 1. Previous surveys indicate that there has not been any settlement of town structures within the roadways. 2. A meeting was conducted with representatives of the Connecticut Water Company (CWC) and Yankee Gas on July 1, 2002 to determine if the utilities had any known problems and/or concerns regarding settlement and their facilities. CWC had conducted a leak analysis and found no leaks nor were there any settlements within the roads near their facilities. Yankee Gas did have a settlement at the edge of Ann Road along their service line to 108 High Tower. The representative did not have any concern about the integrity of their facilities. 3. Town crews dug a test pit along High Tower Road on July 9, 2002 to determine subsurface conditions. The test pit information is attached. What was found appears to be a unique situation, whereby the topsoil, sand and sand/clay layers are under laid by a peat zone, which is highly organic and compressive. Variable ground water conditions seem to have presented themselves over time as mottling is evident at 24 inches and groundwater was evident at 74 inches. 4. The test pit information and samples of each soil layer were examined by a professional soil scientist with the peat layer analyzed relative to its properties. The report is attached. 5. The subdivision and house at 108 High Tower were built circa 1958. Aerial photos of the area were examined from 1945 and 1956 to determine any unique features of the area prior to the construction of the roads and house. The area appears to have been farmed with shade tobacco the crop under cultivation at the time of the aerial photos. 6. The intersection of Ann Road and High Tower road is the lowest point within this area of the subdivision. 7. A review of USGS groundwater records for the South Windsor monitoring well indicate that over the last 2 years groundwater conditions have approached near record lows. Look alL /�� j�/��fft�r�cf� frarf P �'cy Lj� W"Xt-^ rli1 , f /J 6fL.A d/ eZ `6 . Mr. and Mrs. Percy LaBrecque August 22, 2002 CONCLUSION 1. The existing soil layers appear to be a natural condition. From examination of the aerial photos, it would appear that the soil layering existed at the time of the farming prior to construction of the subdivision and homes. If there was a low spot(bog area) prior to farming, it would appear that this area was filled or leveled off with adjacent sand and topsoil to allow farming to take place. 2. Based upon the test pit observations and the analysis of the peat layer by Max Welti, P.E., it would appear that settlement of the peat layer is a likely cause due to groundwater fluctuations. Further settlement is likely due to decomposition of the organic layer above the groundwater table. Should the groundwater table fall, additional settlement could occur as well. The extent of future settlement has been hypothesized in the Weld report. 3. The gradual settlement of the area does not present a public safety issue. 4. As this appears to be a unique natural condition that predates the construction of the subdivision, staff does not believe this to be a Town responsibility. 5. Groundwater conditions have been near record lows which would expose the organic layer to favorable conditions for decomposition resulting in settlement. RECOMMENDATIONS Based upon the above observations and conclusions, we do not believe the Town is responsible for re-grading the property. We stand ready to review this matter with you at your convenience. Michael I Gan ck, P.E. Director of Public Works MJG:bmr cc: Matthew B.

B Town of South Windsor 8 1540 Sullivan Avenue South Windsor, CT 06074 Re: Settlement in Yard at 108 High Tower Drive; South Windsor, CT. Dear Mr. Gantick: Regarding the above I have reviewed the data and samples from test pit taken at the above site.It is my understanding that the home owners yard has settled in the area of the test pit, creating a swale where storm water pools. The material in bucket#2 is Peat. The peat would have a(Q(1 +e j)value of about.40 where C,; is the compression index and eo is the initial voids ratio. With a soils cross section consisting of 4 feet of fill,atop 2 feet of subsoils,atop 4 feet of peat,and a water table at 6 feet below grade the total settlement from consolidation of the peat layer would be about 10". About 50% of this amount would have occurred within 6 months after the fill was placed. Of remaining potential settlement, 90 to-95 % would have occurred within 15 to 20 years. With an 8 foot layer of peat the total settlement would be about 15". The total thickness of the peat stratum is unknown since the pit was terminated in this deposit at 86", but it would seem unlikely that a localized deposit would extend below 14 feet(8 feet below the water level). Additional settlements could occur as a result of a lowering of the water table. These settlements would result from the increased areal loading and possible decomposition of organic materials which are above the water table. The lowering of the water table by 2 feet would be the equivalent of placing 1 foot of additional fill.With an 8 feet peat layer this would result in an additional settlement of about 5". Settlements from decomposition of organic materials above the water table could be up to 100%of the total thickness of the organic content in that zone. If you have any questions please call me. Very truly yours Max Welti, P. E.

Galligan, Town Manager �- -i• A�S�f*:j RE: Labrecque Letter DATE: December 6, 2001 I received your e-mail from Judy concerning Labrecque on Hightower Road. I had an idea that I thought I would mention. Years ago, the builders in these older areas used to bury their tree stumps, and over the years these stumps rot and the land has a tendency to shift and sink. I am wondering if this is a possibility that we may want to explore or suggest to the property owner. I think we both agree that we do not feel this situation has arisen because of anything the Town is doing. Thanks for your cooperation and attention to the issue. Mike Gantick-Labrec ue Letter-Hightower Re From: Mike Gantick To: Judy Hall; Matt Galligan Date: 12/3/01 12:59PM Subject: Labrecque Letter- Hightower Road As a follow-up to Mel's memo of November 13, 2001, the staff has TV.ed the storm and sanitary sewer lines in the vicinity of the LaBrecque residence.There is no apparent problems of broken/cracked pipes that would contribute to conditions Mr. LaBrecque suggests.We will continue to monitor the area but do not believe there to be any remedial measures neccessary at this time other than those discussed in Mel's memo. Regards, Michael J. Gantick, P.E. Director of Public Works Town of South Windsor, Ct. CC: Fred Shaw; Karl Reichle; Mark Owens; Melvin Stead; Ron Asselin; Steve Lavigueur MEMORANDUM TO: MICHAEL J. GANTICK, P.E. FROM: MELVIN C. STEAD,JR. y,JJi SUBJECT: LABRECQUE LETTER HIGHTOWER ROAD SUBJECT: NOVEMBER 13, 2001 The LaBrecque property is at 108 High Tower Road. It is a corner lot at the intersection of Ann Road. This subdivision was built in the 1950's with minimum drainage facilities and foundation drains because of high water table. There is some existing documented information available. Copies are attached. Section of MDC map number 381 dated 1966. Section of sanitary sewer map dated 1977. Section of a proposed drainage installation plan for High Tower Drive dated 1997. • Two pages from an Engineering field book dated 1982. Memo to Jerry dated 10/26/00. Mr. LaBrecque contacted the Engineering Department last September or October. Tracy responded and advised the Town Engineer of what he found. He also sent a copy to me. I went out and met with Mr. LaBrecque. He was concerned about the possibility of a problem with his gas service. He also expressed concern that the Town would not remove a tree on his property at the corner of Ann and High Tower. I set up an appointment with a representative of the Gas Company and met him on site. He marked the gas service. The service was in an area of the settlement in the pavement and he said there was no reason to be concerned about the gas service. I let Mr. LaBrecque know this. The settlement in the pavement has not been repaired. It is minor and is where the gas service was marked. It was left undone intentionally to monitor through the spring. It has not gotten any worse. We should have repaired it in June but we failed to do so. We will repair it as soon as leaf collection is complete. I had the catch basin and pipe inspected. They had been cleaned earlier in the season. There was little or no silt in them and a look in the pipe showed no accumulation of sand. I also went to Dower Road and inspected the catch basin there. Again there was no accumulation of sand in the catch basin. These are indications that there is not a failure in the drainage system. I also went to the Engineering Department and got field notes from a 1982 field survey in preparation for replacement of the cross country storm line that goes to Dower Road. Scott and I checked the difference in elevation between existing catch basin then with the difference now. It was within an inch of what it was in 1982. The Town added storm drainage system in High Tower Road in 1997. We connected to an existing catch basin at the intersection of Ann Road. It is shown as #CB32 on the 1997 plan. There is no settlement along this new line. All settlement is north and east of the curb and back at or beyond the street line. There is no storm drainage along the East Side of Ann Road heading north from High Tower. There is a 12-inch diameter storm drain along the West Side of High Tower. There may be settlement in the LaBrecque front yard and it may be as Tracey has indicated,from decaying wood debris or stumps. There is also another contributing factor. We have been in a long period of low precipitation. Ground water levels are at there lowest in years. Wood that has been in or covered with water and/or mud could have been persevered and only now decomposing causing voids below the ground surface. Maps indicate that this intersection has existed as a depression since 1966. I suspect that since this subdivision was constructed before design regulations that this intersection was purposely constructed as the lowest point to allow for water to drain from all directions to these two catch basins. Two other observations. The intersections have very tight radii;longer wheel base vehicles turning right from High Tower onto Ann have continuously run over the curb. This coupled with several overlays has led to the little or no curb reveal. I have made an appointment with Ed Beale to re-shoot elevations on the catch basin type and pipe inverts to compare with elevations taken in 1982 for Tuesday, November 13th. I will set up to TV the storm drainage as soon as I can free up one of our trained people. Elevations at 108 HighTower Road 1977 plan 1982 notes 2001 notes T.Found#27 Ann. n/a 91.74 91.74 T.

LaPiene, Project Engineer CC: Date: 10/26/00 Re: 108 Hightower Complaint On 10/26/00, 1 met with Mr. Percy at his home to inspect his settlement concerns. His property is northeast of the intersection of Hightower and Ann. It appears that the front lawn area has settled over 2' in areas over the last two years according to the homeowner. Two years ago the homeowner placed 30c.y. of material in the front yard to provide a constant grade across the lawn. At this time the area has a definite depressed areas. The homeowner also states that a depression 5' north of C.B. on Ann has just occurred over the past few months. The homeowner states that Ron Asselin has been out a number of times to take a look at area but may not be aware of depression forming In the roadway. The homeowner states that during the storm drainage construction on Ann Rd that the road had collapsed in that area and a bus had been stuck when Its wheels went through the pavement. I had expressed that it has been my past experience with settlement of this nature that it could have occurred for a number of reasons. If caused by groundwater carrying fines into free draining material or stone around storm or sanitary piping there would be more localized evidence of this namely more settlement over or in the area of the piping. There was no sign of sediment in the catch basin sumps and no settlement over the new storm placed on Hightower. There was no localized settlement over his foundation drain or the waterline. The area may have settled due to unsuitable material being buried in that area, namely stumps or brush or boulders. Over a long period of time the stumps will decompose and settlement of this nature could occur. This may even take twenty plus years to show up. The area that has settled is about a quarter circle with a radius of about 30' and does include the shoulder area. I told the homeowner that I would pass my observations along to you and Mel Stead and that I would have you or Mel get back to him. I said that I couldn't speak for you but that I believed the Town's position would be that the settlement is on private property and therefore would be up to him to address. In addition, I expressed that the only way to determine for sure what is the cause of the settlement would be, was to take some borings or test pits and that again those would be up to him. I also told him that I would let Ron know about the settlement of the pavement on Ann. When they excavate to make that repair, they may be able to tell what caused the settlement there and that this may be what is the cause on his property.

I told him to call Karl and ask him to take another look at it because of a safety concern of the homeowners. 0 Pape 2 � � a� Z v fv c 33, 3 35— N/F R-e 6u,`1� 3 N/F LOBRECQUE TAMALIS d ne 1 15" S & leas ( 0 15" NiE ' 15" W i S cc I 15" N _ /0 I N B C 85.90 e Q ,,V Y MANHOLE a/ 104 sNEr C_ 2 _ 3405PI I I G / / COI CRETE`BI GIN + I / ORNEWAY BE IR SET Ih -- J- CB3 6„W BIT,CURB 4 III �SMH B'IAIV — — — — _ — SM30LF15'RCCp t✓ — — — � -- - _ H MARK 85.90 'I/'-*— ------4°G _.� � R DRIVE iANIT.

You state in your letter that the events you depict have been an ongoing problem for several years; and that you have made Town staff aware of their existence on many occasions. Since receipt of your letter, I have spoken with Town Manager Matthew Galligan and provided him with a copy of it. He has assured me that he will speak with Director of Public Works Michael Gantick regarding the continuing problem in your area. I am sure Mr. Gantick will be contacting you soon to answer any questions you may have, and to apprize you of what measures may be needed to remedy the situation. Also, please feel free to contact me again if I may be of any assistance. Very truly yours, Edward Havens Deputy Mayor Cc: Mr. Matthew B. Galligan, Town Manager Mr. Michael Gantick, Director of Public Works r/J To Whom It May Concern, We need your help. We live at 108 High Tower Drive in South Windsor. We have been complaining to the town for many years now that the corner of our property(on the corner of High Tower and Ann Road)is sinking into the ground. The town can't seem to see that this is happening, but it is. We have enclosed pictures of our front yard from 1985 that shows the ground is relatively flat. Since then it has been sinking! We filled it in with 15 cubic yards of topsoil in 1991 and another 20 cubic yards of topsoil in 1997. We started taking measurements of the sinkage. When we measured our property in Oct. 200 we found that the property has sunk 9 inches since 1991. When we measured again this month we found that it has sunk another 5 inches just since October of last year. The curb on this corner is no longer existent and the Hickory tree that the town planted over 25 years ago is starting to sink leaving the roots exposed over the ground. We have called out the town engineers several times and they say they cannot find any erosion problems. We are now getting concerned that the water and natural gas lines are in this area of our yard and we are afraid of a possible explosion. The town has come out and cleaned out the catch basins but we do not believe this to be the problem with our erosion. We would like this problem to be fixed once and for all. We have spent much money, time and effort into fixing this problem ourselves with no help form the town of South Windsor. Can anyone help us?
