The meeting was attended by City of Coppell construction inspector Larry Davis, City of Coppell engineer Keith Marvin, the project geotechnical engineer Richard Gee, the project construction manager, Rodney Louvier and myself, the project engineer. The source of the groundwater was discussed with two main possibilities considered. One possible source was the abandoned water well, which has been recently capped, and the second was a natural spring. It was decided that the immediate course of action would be to further determine the extent of the near surface groundwater by conducting additional borings in nearby locations. Based on the findings from these borings, a drainage system will be designed to collect and pipe the groundwater to the nearest inlet. Sincerely, Scott D. Caruthers, P.E.
