1. This plot is intended to present information regarding the effect

of dewatering of TBM Access Shaft on groundwater levels in the
project area.
2. Observations are based on data obtained by STP and
downloaded from Geoscope on 12-1-2014.

3. ESUs were estimated by WSDOT based on boring logs, where

available, or from comparison of the measurement point depth
with the Geotechnical Baseline Report centerline profile.
4. Drawdown was calculated by subtracting the initial reading of
the measurement point (prior to 9-21-2014) from the average of the readings
observed between 11-17-2014 and 12-01-2014.
