Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
0.0 REPORT SUMMARY
Site Investigation Works The intrusive investigation comprised the drilling of 3 No. cable percussive boreholes and 8 No. mechanically excavated trial pits to maximum depths of 20.00m bgl and 3.30m bgl respectively.
together with in‐situ testing, laboratory geotechnical and chemical analysis and gas and ground water monitoring from installations in 3 No. boreholes
Ground Encountered Made Ground was identified in all the exploratory holes to a maximum depth of 0.50mbgl (BH02) and
predominantly consisted of soft brown gravelly silty clay and relic topsoil with rootlets, in places overlying brown
sandy gravelly clay intermixed with occasional bricks. The gravel content comprising brick, concrete, chalk, some
ash and coal. Cobbles of brick were encountered in TP07 and TP04. The superficial materials were generally found
to comprise a firm becoming stiff brown and grey slightly sandy gravelly clay with low cobble content. Gravel and
cobbles predominantly comprised chert and chalk. From approximately 1.50mbgl, cohesive deposits were often
very gravelly or in some instances fissured, which prevented hand shear vane testing being undertaken.
Rockhead was not identified at the site during the intrusive investigation works.
Site Location and
Description
The site is located to the east of Alconbury approximately 2km north east of Alconbury itself and 6.25km north west
of Huntingdon town centre. The site lies within a former military airfield which is undergoing redevelopment as a
business hub.
The development site generally comprises a rectangular grassed area of land (measuring approximately 70 metres
by 50 metres), close to the main entrance to Alconbury Weald Enterprise Campus. Immediately to the north,
bordering the site, is the relatively recently constructed “Incubator 1” building. To the eastern boundary is a
footpath, grassed verge and tarmac access road. To the immediate south is an additional grassed area and to the
western boundary is a tarmac access road. Land surrounding the site comprises the remainder of the former airfield
redevelopment project, with various tenants including vehicle and container storage, recycling, welfare provision
and general light industrial usage with a move towards modern commercial offices and workspaces and residential
and amenity uses within the proposed and ongoing Alconbury Weald and Enterprise Campus developments.
Site History Originally agricultural land, the airfield opened in 1938 and used and upgraded by USAF up to 1995, sold by MoD to Urban and Civic in 2009. Few details of changes are indicated on OS plans within the airfield area likely due to censorship of sensitive information.
Geology
Made Ground: Made Ground was identified to a maximum depth of 0.50mbgl and predominantly consisted of soft
brown gravelly silty clay and relic topsoil with rootlets, in places overlying brown sandy gravelly clay intermixed with
occasional bricks. The gravel content comprising brick, concrete, chalk, some ash and coal. Cobbles of brick were
encountered in TP07 and TP04.
Superficial: Cohesive Glacial Till (Diamicton / Boulder Clay)
Solid Geology: Oxford Clay Formation (mudstone and siltstone strata)
Mining Not in a coal mining area.
No records of Historical Mining, JPB Mining Areas, Non‐Coal Mining, Non‐Coal Mining Cavities, Natural Cavities, Brine Extraction, Tin Mining and Clay Mining within 1000m of the site.
Hydrogeology Superficial Strata: Unproductive
Solid Geology: Unproductive
Hydrology There is 1 No. Environment Agency river quality record within 1500m of the site relating to Alconbury Brook 1232m W of the airfield where a Biological Quality Grade of B was recorded in 2009.
Flood Risk The Environment Agency Flood Map does not show the site is to be at risk from river flooding. There are no indicated Environment Agency Zone 2 and Zone 3 floodplains within 250m of the site.
Previous Ground Investigations
The Client supplied a copy of Peter Brett Associates (PBA) Report No. 24213 Rev C “Ground Stability and Phase 1 Contaminated Land Study” July 2012 which provided an overview of the whole Alconbury Weald development site and referenced a number of previous studies, risk assessments including a detailed walkover study and a record of potential contamination sources and incidental contamination identifications.

Contamination
Assessment
Soils: 12 No. samples tested, all contaminants within TSVs, No Asbestos detected.
Gas Risk Assessment 2 No. completed of a scheduled 6 No. monitoring visits. Based on the data to date risk to proposed development is preliminarily assessed as Characteristic Situation 1, VERY LOW.
Risk Assessment Current and Future Site Users (Commercial): Low
Site Development / Maintenance Workers: Low
Controlled Waters: Low
Development: Low
Foundation Design Based on the expected construction and relatively low loads required, it is anticipated that pad foundations within
natural clays may be suitable for the proposed development. Laboratory and in‐situ testing indicates an allowable
bearing capacity in the order of 150kPa is appropriate at 1.50m bgl in order to remain within acceptable levels of
settlement (<25mm), increasing to 250kPa at around 2.20m bgl.
Assessment of the underlying cohesive strata indicates a medium volume change potential within the upper 1m,
becoming low to medium and low with depth.
Ground floor slab to be either;
• a fully suspended ground floor slab or;
• a suitably designed ground bearing floor slab to mitigate the medium ground swell potential, with the
removal / replacement of near surface made ground material and any potentially weathered material
Geotechnical Testing CBR Value for Design: 3%
Chemical Attack on
Buried Structures
Concrete: Design Sulphate Class for the site is DS‐3, ACEC Class AC‐2s.
Recommendations The remaining gas monitoring visits should be completed, at which point the gas risk assessment will be updated to reflect the additional data.
An earthworks and remediation strategy should be developed to outline the measures required to allow the development to proceed on a more assured basis with regards to potential contamination and any preparatory groundworks that may be required.
This table is intended as a summary only and should be read in conjunction with the main report.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Shadbolt Environmental (part of the Shadbolt Group) were commissioned by the client Urban and Civic (Alconbury) Ltd.
to undertake a site investigation for a proposed commercial office building (Incubator 2 Building) within the Alconbury
Weald development at the former RAF Alconbury airfield.
This report provides an assessment of the ground conditions encountered at the site with regards to the proposed
commercial development.
1.1 Aims and Objectives
The purpose of the investigation was to determine the existing ground conditions and identify possible contamination
related to past uses of the site which may provide constraints to the proposed development.
In order to achieve the above stated aims and objectives the following works have been undertaken:
Intrusive investigations including mechanically excavated trial pits, cable percussive
boreholes and windowless sample boreholes.
Chemical laboratory testing.
Geotechnical Laboratory testing.
Gas and water monitoring (on‐going).
Contamination risk assessment.
Foundation assessment.
1.2 Scope of Works
The site investigation designed by Shadbolt Environmental, consisted of 8 No. mechanically excavated Trial Pits, 3 No.
Cable Percussive Boreholes, together with in‐situ testing (SPT, Hand Shear Vane and Mexiprobe), laboratory geotechnical
and chemical analysis and gas and ground water monitoring from installations in the 3 No. boreholes.
1.3 Limitations
The recommendations and opinions expressed in this report are based on the strata observed in the borings and
excavations; together with the results of the site and laboratory tests as detailed within the report. Shadbolt
Environmental takes no responsibility for ground conditions which occur between the exploratory hole positions.
Every effort has been made to interpret the conditions between investigation locations; however, such information is
indicative. A detailed review of the extent of limitations of this report is included in the Report Conditions included in
Appendix A and the standard terms and conditions of the agreement.

3.0 HISTORICAL LAND USE
A full historical appraisal of the Alconbury Weald development site has been carried out previously by Peter Brett
Associates (PBA) and is presented under Project Ref: 24213/026, Doc Ref: A1/Geo v01 Rev C as “Alconbury Weald – Ground
Stability and Phase 1 Contaminated Land Desk Study” dated July 2012. This document was produced for Urban and Civic
as an appraisal of the entire development and reference should be made to this document for full details. A history of the
air field operations is also given in the BACTEC International Explosive Ordnance Threat Assessment contained within the
PBA report.
Within the vicinity of the Development area pertinent information includes the following; in earliest OS mapping the site
is shown as agricultural land with the airfield opening in 1938 and used during WWII and through the Cold War to recent
times by the United States Air Force before being purchased by Urban and Civic in 2009. The taxi‐ways and roads to the
north and north east the development area were modified in the 1980s to accommodate reconnaissance planes used at
the time. The airfield and infrastructure were returned to the British Ministry of Defence in 1995 with the USAF
maintaining use of the housing and support areas for the near future.
Few details are indicated on OS plans within the airfield area likely due to censorship of sensitive information. A mast is
indicated close to the study area from maps dated from 1978, with a second mast structure noted on plans dated from
1992.

Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
4.1 Geology
Geological plans indicate that the site is underlain by superficial Cohesive Glacial Till (Diamicton / Boulder Clay) which
comprises predominantly clay strata with varying but generally low proportions of sand, gravel and oversized materials.
The solid geology beneath the site comprises strata of the Oxford Clay formation comprising a sequence of mudstone and
siltstone strata.
4.2 Mining Risk Assessment
The site is not located within a known coal mining affected area as verified by The Coal Authority’s Coal Mining Gazetteer
for England and Wales. Additionally, there are no database records of Historical Mining, JPB Mining Areas, Non‐Coal
Mining, Non‐Coal Mining Cavities, Natural Cavities, Brine Extraction, Tin Mining and Clay Mining within 1000m of the site.
4.3 Hydrogeology
Information on the hydrogeological characteristics of the site has been obtained from the following:
The Environment Agency Groundwater Vulnerability Maps
Peter Brett Associates Ground Stability and Phase 1 Contaminated Land Desk Study Report
(July 2012) and appendices including GroundSure Report.
The superficial geology located beneath the site is designated as Unproductive; Unproductive aquifers are rock layers or
drift deposits with low permeability that have negligible significance for water supply or river base flow.
The solid geology located beneath the site is designated as Unproductive; Unproductive aquifers are rock layers or drift
deposits with low permeability that have negligible significance for water supply or river base flow.
4.4 Hydrology, Flood Risk and Drainage Issues
There are 66 No. river network features recorded within 500m of the airfield site including 12 No. within the airfield
boundary.
There is 1 No. Environment Agency river quality record within 1500m of the site relating to Alconbury Brook 1232m W of
the airfield where a Biological Quality Grade of B was recorded in 2009.
Information from the Environment Agency (EA) indicates that the site does not lie within 250m of an indicated
Environment Agency Zone 2 or Zone 3 flood plain. Additionally, there are no Flood Defences or areas benefitting from
Flood Defences or Flood Storage within 250m of the site.
The BGS indicate that the site does lie within 50m of groundwater flooding susceptible areas. The BGS note that the airfield
has a Very High susceptibility to groundwater flooding with High confidence rating in the assessment.
4.5 Radon
Reference to the NRPB Report W26 ‘Radon Atlas of England and Wales,’ 2002 indicates the site is not located in a Radon
Affected Area as less than 1% of homes have radon emissions above the recommended Action Level, therefore, no specific
protective measures are necessary for developments on this site with respect to radon.

5.0 PREVIOUS INVESTIGATIONS
A number of boreholes and trial pits have been undertaken historically in the surrounding area, logs from these holes have
been reviewed and confirm the geology indicated by the BGS.
A number of intrusive investigations and incidental identifications of contaminated soils across the airfield have been
compiled previously by Environ; the findings of these previous investigations were reviewed in PBA Report No. 24213 Rev
C “Ground Stability and Phase 1 Contaminated Land Study” July 2012 and are summarised in PBA Drawing No.
24213/026/01 “Extent of Identified Contamination from Previous Targeted Intrusive Investigations – Airfield Area” which
is presented in Appendix G along with a detailed plan (Drawing No. 3377‐20‐06a) and accompanying notes from Environ
report No. UK11‐15006 “Environmental Review” October 2009 indicating previously identified areas of contamination.

Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
6.0 SITE INVESTIGATION
The physical ground investigation work was carried out by Shadbolt Environmental during November 2016.
6.1 Proposed Development
It is understood that the site is to be developed for commercial / office end‐use, the configuration of the proposed
development is anticipated to be a single unit measuring approximately 54 metres x 16 metres with external hardstanding
and landscaping areas and roadways linking to existing road and proposed new roads within the airfield development.
6.2 Scope of Investigation
The intrusive investigation comprised the drilling of 3 No. cable percussive boreholes and 8 No. mechanically excavated
trial pits to maximum depths of 20.00m bgl and 3.30m bgl respectively. A plan showing the approximate location of the
exploratory holes is included as Drawing No. 2507‐003 ‐ Exploratory Hole Location Plan.
The soils encountered during this investigation have been logged in accordance with BS5930:1999 +A2:2010 “Code of
Practice for Site Investigation”.
During drilling and excavation representative samples were taken at regular intervals from the exploratory holes to assist
in the identification of the soils, and to allow selected geotechnical and chemical testing to be programmed.
Gas/groundwater monitoring wells have been installed in the 3No. cable percussive boreholes (BH01, BH02 and BH03).
Each monitoring well comprises a lower slotted section of 50mm diameter HDPE pipe, surrounded by a filter pack of 10mm
non‐calcareous gravel and an upper plain section surrounded in part by a bentonite seal and in part by gravel or arisings.
The top of the plain pipe was cut off above ground level and the monitoring well protected by a raised lockable cover set
in concrete.
6.3 In‐Situ Testing
SPT testing was carried out in the cable percussive boreholes and hand shear vane testing was undertaken in cohesive soils
in the trial pits. Assessment of the likely CBR values of shallow soils was also undertaken in the proposed car park areas
using a hand held ‘’Mexi Probe’’ this was to enable evaluation of the likely CBR values and provide data for highway
pavement design.
Results of the in‐situ testing are presented on the relevant exploratory hole logs included in Appendix B.
6.4 Geotechnical Laboratory Testing
Selected samples (scheduled by SE) were submitted to our nominated geotechnical testing laboratory. Results of the
geotechnical testing are presented within Appendix E.
Shadbolt Environmental Geo‐Environmental Solutions
Incubator 2, Alconbury 12 Issue V1
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
6.5 Chemical Laboratory Testing
A programme of chemical laboratory analysis was scheduled by Shadbolt Environmental to determine the concentrations
of potential contaminants which may be present within the soils encountered at the site. 12 No. soil samples were tested
for a range of determinands including heavy and phytotoxic metals and metalloids, inorganic and organic contaminants as
well as asbestos. The Shadbolt Environmental Tier 1 Screening Values, together with the results of the contamination
testing are reported in Appendix C and Appendix D respectively.
6.6 Gas Monitoring
To date there have been 2 No. gas monitoring visits made to the site out of a scheduled 6 No visits to be undertaken over
a period of 3 No. months.
A standard procedure was followed in accordance with CIRIA guidance; this procedure involved measurement, in the
following order of:
Atmospheric temperature, pressure and ambient oxygen concentration on site
immediately prior to and on completion of, monitoring.
Emission rate.
Methane, oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations using a GFM 475 infra‐red gas
analyser.
Standing water level using a dipmeter.
The results of the monitoring visits have been assessed, the findings are discussed in Section 9.0 of this report.
6.7 Limitations
It should be noted that although every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the data obtained from the
investigation, the possibility exists of variations in ground and groundwater conditions between and around the borehole
locations.
In addition, groundwater levels and ground gas concentrations will vary seasonally and with changes in weather conditions.

Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
7.0 GROUND CONDITIONS
For an accurate description of the strata encountered, reference should be made to the individual exploratory hole logs
presented included in Appendix B.
The ground conditions encountered at the site are summarised in the following sections.
7.1 Made Ground
Made Ground was identified in all the exploratory holes to a maximum depth of 0.50mbgl (BH02) and predominantly
consisted of soft brown gravelly silty clay and relic topsoil with rootlets, in places overlying brown sandy gravelly clay
intermixed with occasional bricks. The gravel content comprising brick, concrete, chalk, some ash and coal. Cobbles of
brick were encountered in TP07 and TP04.
7.2 Superficial Deposits
Superficial deposits were identified in all exploratory holes.
The superficial materials were generally found to comprise a firm becoming stiff brown and grey slightly sandy gravelly
clay with low cobble content. Gravel and cobbles predominantly comprised chert and chalk. From approximately
1.50mbgl, cohesive deposits were often very gravelly or in some instances fissured, which prevented hand shear vane
testing being undertaken.
Stiff laminated clay was encountered in BH02 from 15.00mbgl.
7.3 Solid Deposits
Rockhead was not identified at the site during the investigation.
7.4 Groundwater
Groundwater was not generally recorded during the site works. Subsequent post site works monitoring has reported
standing groundwater at approximately 0.60mbgl to 1.00mbgl.
7.5 Ground Obstructions
Generally, ground obstructions were not encountered during site works. Occasional cobbles were encountered in
exploratory holes. Greater effort was required by the JCB 3CX during excavation of the deeper strata in trial pits.
The presence of other obstructions in the form of relict foundations previously not shown on historical plans or demolition
rubble also cannot be ruled out.
7.6 Observed Contamination
With the exception of ash gravel type material in the shallow made ground deposits, evidence of obvious visual or olfactory
contamination was not observed during the siteworks.
7.7 In‐Situ and Laboratory Geotechnical Analysis
The following in‐situ and laboratory geotechnical testing has been undertaken, the results of which are summarised in
Table 7.7.1 (below) and are presented in full in Appendix E.

8.0 GROUND CONTAMINATION ASSESSMENT
8.1 Legislation
Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 provides for the control of specific threats to health or the environment
from existing land contamination. In accordance with the Act, the statutory guidance document and The Contaminated
Land (England) Regulations 2000, the definition of contaminated land is intended to embody the concept of risk
assessment. Therefore, land is only “contaminated land” where it appears to the regulatory authority, by reason of
substances within, on, or under the land that:
Significant harm is being caused, or there is significant possibility of such harm being caused; or
Pollution of controlled waters is being, or is likely to be, caused.
The guidance defines “risk” as the combination of:
Probability, or frequency, of occurrence of a defined hazard (for example, exposure of a property to a substance
with the potential to cause harm); and
Magnitude (including the seriousness) of the consequences.
For a risk of pollution or environmental harm to occur as a result of ground contamination, all of the following elements
must be present:
Source, i.e. a substance that is capable of causing pollution or harm;
Receptor (or target), i.e. something which could be adversely affected by the contaminant; and
Pathway, i.e. a route by which the contaminant can reach the receptor.
If one of these elements is missing (source, pathway or receptor) there can be no significant risk. If all are present then
the magnitude of the risk is a function of the magnitude and mobility of the source, the sensitivity of the receptor and the
nature of the migration pathway.
8.2 Assessment Methodology
In order to assess the environmental risk posed by potential contaminants within the underlying soils and groundwater
Shadbolt Environmental undertook an initial screen of the laboratory results using Shadbolt Environmental Tier One
Screening Values Version (TSVs). This screening was using TSVs derived for the proposed COMMERCIAL end use.
Contaminant concentrations below the TSVs are considered not to warrant further risk assessment. Concentrations of
potential contaminants above the TSVs require further consideration of the potential pollutant linkages. It should be noted
that exceedance of the TSVs does not necessarily require that the site be remediated.
Shadbolt Environmental Geo‐Environmental Solutions
Incubator 2, Alconbury 18 Issue V1
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
8.3 Derivation of Soils TSVs
On‐going research by the Environment Agency (EA) is being undertaken to produce toxicology reports (TOX series) for each
of the contaminants identified within the CLR framework and then to produce published Soil Guideline Values (SGVs) using
the Contaminated Land Exposure Assessment (CLEA) Model. Parallel to the work being undertaken by the EA is research
being undertaken by Land Quality Management Limited and the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH) to
produce similar General Assessment Criteria (GAC) using the CLEA Model. To date, SGVs and GACs have been published
for over 80 No. contaminants with SGVs / GACs derived for each contaminant for three different land use scenarios namely:
Residential
Allotment
Commercial
In addition, Shadbolt Environmental (The Shadbolt Group) have derived screening values for Parks, Playing Fields and
Open Spaces based on current guidance.
Shadbolt Environmental TSV’s are based on the SGVs and GACs which are scientifically based generic assessment criteria
that can be used to simplify the assessment of human health risks arising from long‐term and on‐site exposure to chemical
contamination in soil.
SGVs and GACs are a screening tool for the generic quantitative risk assessment of land contamination (Defra and
Environment Agency, 2004). They are not (unless clearly stated otherwise) relevant for assessing risks to human health
from short‐term exposure to chemicals in soil including injury arising from direct bodily contact and do not take account
of other types of risks to humans such as explosion or suffocation risks (associated with the build‐up of gases such as
methane and carbon dioxide) or aesthetic issues such as odour or colour.
SGVs and GACs do not take account of other non‐soil based sources of contamination such as contamination in
groundwater, surface waters or drinking waters. They cannot be used to evaluate risks to non‐human receptors such as
controlled waters, ecosystems, buildings and services, domestic pets or garden plants. Where, for example, phytotoxic
effects are an important consideration in the current or future intended land use further investigation should be
undertaken.
SGVs are guidelines on the level of long‐term human exposure to individual chemicals in soil that, unless stated otherwise,
are tolerable or pose a minimal risk to human health. They represent “trigger values” – indicators to a risk assessor that
soil concentrations above this level may pose a possibility of significant harm to human health (Defra, 2008b). Significance
is linked to:
Margin of exceedance;
Duration and frequency of exposure;
Other site‐specific factors that the enforcing authority may wish to take into account.
SGVs do not of themselves represent the threshold at which there is a significant possibility of significant harm (SPOSH).
Nor do they automatically represent an unacceptable intake in the context of Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act
1990. However, they can be a useful starting point for such an assessment.
Shadbolt Environmental Geo‐Environmental Solutions
Incubator 2, Alconbury 19 Issue V1
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
In order to assess the soil analyses results with regard to potential human health risks, Shadbolt Environmental TSVs have
been derived in accordance with the UK framework set out in the most recent CLR (Contaminated Land Report) documents
(EA/DEFRA, 2009) and LQM/CIEH S4ULs for Human Health Risk Assessment 2015 and are “in line” with industry standards.
Assessment Framework
The CLEA model states that, ‘the contamination is assumed to be at or within 1m of the surface’. It is considered that at
depths greater than 1m, the probability of human exposure via the direct contact pathways are significantly reduced,
leaving inhalation of volatile compounds as the dominant pathway with regard to human health risks. Typically, volatile
compounds only significantly affect the indoor inhalation pathway.
Statistical Analysis
The CLEA guidelines also state that for each contaminant, the upper 95th percentile of the mean measured concentration
(95%UCL) should be calculated and this value should be compared to the TSV.
The objective of maximum value tests is to decide whether the maximum concentration observed should be treated as an
outlier or whether it can reasonably be considered to come from the same underlying population as the other samples.
It is known that contaminant concentrations often demonstrate lognormal or other distribution forms. Therefore, in order
to calculate what are considered to be more representative 95%UCL values, the contaminant concentrations have first
been assessed to determine if each contaminant distribution is closer to a normal or lognormal distribution.
If a dataset was found to be log normally distributed, the geometric mean was used to calculate the 95%UCL, for those
that were found to be normally distributed; the arithmetic mean was used to calculate the 95%UCL. Constituent non‐
detects were assigned a value equal to the reported analytical laboratory limit of detection, considered reasonably
conservative. Any identified outliers are excluded from the datasets used in calculation of the 95%UCL value.

8.4 Soil Contamination Assessment
In total, 12 No. soil samples were submitted for testing for a suite of common contaminants during the Shadbolt
Environmental ground investigation.
The analysis included heavy and phytotoxic metals and metalloids, inorganic and organic contaminants as well as asbestos.
An additional 3 No. soil samples were scheduled for asbestos fibre screening.
The laboratory chemical results have indicated all tested contaminant concentrations to be within SE TSVs for a
COMMERCIAL end use.
8.4.1 Soils Statistical Assessment
Chemical analysis reported contaminant concentrations well within SE TSVs for commercial land use. Therefore, statistical
analysis was not considered necessary.
8.5 Leachate Contamination Assessment
Due to low contaminant concentrations reported from chemical analysis no leachate testing is considered necessary at
this stage.
8.6 Groundwater Contamination Assessment
Groundwater was generally not encountered during the site investigation works.

9.0 GAS RISK ASSESSMENT
9.1 Gas Risk Assessment and Protection Measures
CIRIA have developed a characterisation system for all buildings except for low‐rise housing developments with a clear
ventilated sub‐floor void. This is a risk based system which compares gas emission rates to generic Characteristic Situations
derived and expanded on from CIRIA 149. Concept of ‘Traffic Lights’ developed from Byle and Witherington has also been
included (See Table 10.8.2) for residential development.
The Characteristic Situations include ‘Typical Maximum Concentrations’ for initial screening purposes and risk‐based Gas
Screening Values (GSVs) for consideration when the Typical Maximum Concentrations are exceeded. The GSVs are
calculated by multiplying the borehole flow rate by the concentration in the air stream of the particular gas being
considered.
The Characteristic Situation system has been designed for both methane and carbon dioxide, with the worst case value
adopted.
9.2 Ground Gas Monitoring Data
To date 2 No. of the scheduled 6 No. monitoring visits have been undertaken; the gas monitoring results are presented
Appendix F.
The maximum Methane and Carbon Dioxide emissions, which are representative of the Typical Maximum Concentrations,
were as follows:
Methane: 0.0% v/v
Carbon Dioxide: 0.9% v/v
The maximum concentration of methane recorded was 0.0% v/v, however 0.1% v/v will be used for calculations as this is
the limit of detection of the instrument.
The maximum recorded positive flow rate in the boreholes was 0.2 l/hr.
The calculated GSVs for methane and carbon dioxide to date are as follows:
Methane: (0.1/100) x 0.2 = 0.0002 l/hr
Carbon Dioxide: (0.9/100) x 0.2 = 0.0018 l/hr

Notes: Gas screening value: (Litres of gas/hour) is calculated by multiplying the maximum gas concentration (%) by the maximum measured borehole flow rate (l.hr) – See Glossary. Site Characterisation should be based on gas monitoring of concentrations and borehole flow rates for the minimum period defined in Table 5.5, CIRIA 659. Source of gas and generation potential/performance should be identified. Soil gas investigation should be in accordance with guidance provided in Chapters 4 to 6. If there is no detectable flow, use the limit of detection of the instrument. The boundaries between the Partners in Technology classifications do not fit exactly with the boundaries for the CIRIA classification.

10.0 RISK ASSESSMENT
All available data has been collated and evaluated to establish an initial conceptual model of the site in its current condition
and post development identifying sources, pathways and receptors and pollutant linkages. The site conceptual model has
been developed in accordance with BS10175: 2011.
A Tier 1 risk assessment has been undertaken using the appropriate guidelines for a COMMERCIAL End Use.
10.1 Contamination Sources
In total 12 No. soil samples were submitted for testing for a suite of common contaminants during the Shadbolt
Environmental ground investigation with an additional 2 No. soils submitted for asbestos fibre screening.
The laboratory chemical results have indicated all soil samples tested to have contaminant concentrations within SE TSVs
for a COMMERCIAL end use.
10.2 Potential Contaminant Pathways
The following potential contaminant pathways are proposed considering the proposed future COMMERCIAL end‐use.
Inhalation / ingestion of dust, gases and vapour;
Ground gas / vapour migration;
Dermal contact;
Ingestion of soils and / or groundwater;
Leaching of contaminants from made ground soils to groundwater;
Groundwater flow;
Soil gas migration through Made Ground, granular soils, fissures and mine entries
Migration and leakage through service conduits;

10.3 Potential Contamination Receptors
The potential receptors listed below are proposed considering the current status of the site and surrounding area, and the
proposed development for commercial end use.
Human Health
Current site users.
Future site occupiers.
Site development workers.
Environmental
Future establishment of flora and fauna.
Buildings and underground services.
Controlled waters and aquifers.
10.4 Qualitative Risk Assessment
By considering the sources, pathways and receptors, an assessment of the environmental risks is made with reference to
the significance and degree of the risk to the development for current and future site users.
The qualitative risk assessment has been undertaken in accordance with BS10175:2011 and CIRIA Document C552:
Contaminated Land Risk assessment, A Guide to Good Practice.
The risk assessment has been carried out by assessing the severity of the potential consequence, taking into account both
the potential severity of the hazard and the sensitivity of the target, based on the categories given in Table 10.4.1 below.
Category Definition
Severe Acute risks to human health, catastrophic damage to buildings / property,
major pollution of controlled waters
Medium
Chronic risk to human health, pollution of sensitive controlled waters,
significant effects on sensitive ecosystems or species, significant damage to
buildings or structures
Mild Pollution of non‐sensitive waters, minor damage to buildings or structures
Minor Requirement for protective equipment during site works to mitigate health
effects, damage to non‐sensitive ecosystems or species
Table 10.4.1 – Definition of Risk Severity
Shadbolt Environmental Geo‐Environmental Solutions
Incubator 2, Alconbury 25 Issue V1
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
The likelihood of an event (probability) takes into account both the presence of the hazard and target and the integrity of
the pathway and has been assessed based on the categories given in Table 10.4.2 below.
Category Definition
High Likelihood Pollutant linkage may be present, and risk is almost certain to occur in long
term, or there is evidence of harm to the receptor
Likely Pollutant linkage may be present, and it is probable that the risk will occur over
the long term
Low Likelihood Pollutant linkage may be present, and there is a possibility of the risk occurring,
although there is no certainty that it will do so
Unlikely Pollutant linkage may be present, but the circumstances under which harm
would occur are improbable
Table 10.4.2 – Definition of Risk Probability
The potential severity of the risk and the probability of the risk occurring have been combined in accordance with the
following matrix in order to give a level of risk for each potential hazard, given in Table 10.4.3 below.
Potential Severity
Severe Medium Mild Minor
Probability of

10.4.1 Current and Future Site Users
Potential pathways considered significant to current and future site uses are dermal contact, ingestion of
contaminated soil / groundwater and inhalation of fibres, gases, vapours or dusts.
It is considered that the site presents a LOW risk to current site users from the soils located at the site as the
identified contamination is below the TSVs for soils with respect to the current commercial end use.
Low methane and carbon dioxide levels have been recorded at the site. Reference to current best practice” (see
9.3) indicates the results fall into Characteristic Situation 1 for gas protection i.e. no specific gas protection measures
required (Very Low Risk).
10.4.2 Ground Excavation / Development Workers
It is envisaged that significant earthworks will not be required for the proposed development with excavations being
limited to those for foundations, services and hardstanding areas. It is considered that the risk to construction
and/or maintenance workers during redevelopment works is LOW owing to low concentrations of metallic and
hydrocarbon contaminants.
10.4.3 Future Developments including Buried Structures and Services
Sources of hydrocarbon contamination have been reported to be minimal within soils with contaminant
concentrations below SE TSVs within the proposed development area. It is generally considered that there is a LOW
risk to buried structures and services across the site.
In the sites current state, the overall risk to future proposed development / services is considered to be LOW.
10.4.4 Controlled Waters
Chemical analysis undertaken on soil samples collected from the site reported low concentrations of contaminants.
It is therefore considered that there is a LOW risk to controlled waters within the vicinity of the site. No groundwater
was encountered during the physical ground investigation works.
10.4.5 Flora
Generally low contaminant concentrations have been reported at shallow depth across the site and it is therefore
considered that there is LOW risk to the establishment of flora at the site.

Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
11.0 GROUND ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS
11.1 Proposed Development – COMMERCIAL
It is understood from the client that the site is to be developed for commercial use with a new office facility
(Incubator 2) within the Alconbury Weald development within the former RAF Alconbury airfield.
11.2 Ground Obstructions
Obstructions below ground were not encountered within exploratory holes during the recent ground investigation.
Occasional cobbles of brick were noted in the shallow made ground deposits.
The presence of other obstructions in the form of relict foundations previously not shown on historical plans or
demolition rubble also cannot be ruled out.
11.3 Mining
The site is not located within a known coal mining affected area as verified by The Coal Authority’s Coal Mining
Gazetteer for England and Wales.
Additionally, there are no database records of Historical Mining, JPB Mining Areas, Non‐Coal Mining, Non‐Coal
Mining Cavities, Natural Cavities, Brine Extraction, Tin Mining and Clay Mining within 1000m of the site
11.4 Foundations
Made Ground was identified in all the exploratory holes to a maximum depth of 0.50m bgl (BH02) and
predominantly consisted of soft brown gravelly silty clay and relic topsoil with rootlets, in places overlying brown
sandy gravelly clay intermixed with occasional bricks. The gravel content comprising brick, concrete, chalk, some
ash and coal. Cobbles of brick were encountered in TP07 and TP04.
The superficial materials were generally found to comprise a firm becoming stiff brown and grey slightly sandy
gravelly clay with low cobble content. Gravel and cobbles predominantly comprised chert and chalk. From
approximately 1.50mbgl, cohesive deposits were often very gravelly or in some instances fissured, which prevented
hand shear vane testing being undertaken. Stiff laminated clay was encountered in BH02 from 15.00mbgl
Based on the expected construction and relatively low loads required, it is anticipated that pad foundations within
natural clays may be suitable for the proposed development. Laboratory and in‐situ testing indicates an allowable
bearing capacity in the order of 150kPa is appropriate at 1.50m bgl in order to remain within acceptable levels of
settlement (<25mm), increasing to 250kPa at around 2.20m bgl.
Where soft strata or deeper Made Ground are present the subgrade material should be excavated out and replaced
with engineered granular fill to avoid undesirable differential settlement.
Assessment of the underlying cohesive strata indicates a medium volume change potential within the upper 1m,
becoming low to medium and low with depth beneath 1m.
With regards to the ground level floor slab It is considered that either;
a fully suspended ground floor slab is utilised or;
Shadbolt Environmental Geo‐Environmental Solutions
Incubator 2, Alconbury 29 Issue V2
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
a suitably designed ground bearing floor slab to mitigate the medium ground swell potential, with
the removal / replacement of near surface made ground material and any potentially weathered
material is utilised.

Incubator 2, Alconbury 30 Issue V2
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
11.5 Chemical Attack on Buried Structures
The water soluble sulphate test results reported concentrations between 10mg/l and 1655mg/l. The soil pH was
between 7.9 and 8.4 indicating neutral to slightly alkaline conditions.
The results have been assessed in accordance with the guidance given in BRE Special Digest 1:2005. Assuming a
brownfield site with static groundwater the Design Sulphate Class for the site is DS‐3, ACEC Class AC‐2s.
11.6 Drainage, Highways and Infrastructure
Whilst no soakaway tests were undertaken as part of the ground investigation it is likely that shallow soakaways
would not be feasible due to the cohesive nature of the materials identified during the investigation.
A CBR value of 3.0% at formation with capping is likely to be required and should be adopted for pavement and
hardstanding design purposes.
11.7 Invasive and Protected Species
No suspected invasive species (flora) were identified during siteworks or subsequent monitoring visits. It is
anticipated that an ecological survey may have been carried out previously or is proposed in the future to identify
potential ecological constraints to the proposed development and the wider airfield reclamation works.

12.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
12.1 Conclusions
Shadbolt Environmental (part of the Shadbolt Group) were commissioned by the Client Urban and Civic Plc. to
undertake a site investigation for a COMMERCIAL end use comprising a proposed new office facility within the
Alconbury Weald development, within the former RAF Alconbury airfield.
Made Ground was identified in all the exploratory holes to a maximum depth of 0.50mbgl (BH02) and predominantly
consisted of soft brown gravelly silty clay and relic topsoil with rootlets, in places overlying brown sandy gravelly
clay intermixed with occasional bricks. The gravel content comprising brick, concrete, chalk, some ash and coal.
Cobbles of brick were encountered in TP07 and TP04.
Superficial deposits were identified in all exploratory holes and generally found to comprise a firm becoming stiff
brown and grey slightly sandy gravelly clay with low cobble content. Gravel and cobbles predominantly comprised
chert and chalk. From approximately 1.50mbgl, cohesive deposits were often very gravelly or in some instances
fissured, which prevented hand shear vane testing being undertaken. Stiff laminated clay was encountered in BH02
from 15.00mbgl.
Generally, ground obstructions were not encountered during site works, occasional cobbles were encountered in
exploratory holes. Greater effort was required by the JCB 3CX during excavation of the deeper strata in trial pits.
The presence of other obstructions in the form of relict foundations previously not shown on historical plans or
demolition rubble also cannot be ruled out.
Rockhead was not encountered within the extent of this ground investigation.
The laboratory chemical results have indicated all soil samples tested to have contaminant concentrations within SE
TSVs for a commercial end use.
Groundwater was not generally recorded during the site works. Subsequent post site works monitoring has
reported standing groundwater at approximately 0.60mbgl to 1.00mbgl.
It is considered that in its present state, generally, the site presents a LOW risk to human health and the surrounding
environment. Should the site be developed for a commercial end use it is considered that the risk will remain LOW.
Given the site observations and chemical testing results it is considered that there is a LOW risk to controlled waters
within the vicinity of the site.
Based on the expected construction and relatively low loads required, it is anticipated that pad foundations within
natural clays may be suitable for the proposed development. Laboratory and in‐situ testing indicates an allowable
bearing capacity in the order of 150kPa is appropriate at 1.50m bgl in order to remain within acceptable levels of
settlement (<25mm), increasing to 250kPa at around 2.20m bgl.
If soft strata or deeper Made Ground are present, the subgrade material should be excavated out and replaced with
engineered granular fill to avoid undesirable differential settlement.
To date there have been 2 No. monitoring visits made to the site from a scheduled total of 6 No. Based on the data
collected the risk from soil gas affecting the proposed development is preliminarily assessed as Characteristic
Shadbolt Environmental Geo‐Environmental Solutions
Incubator 2, Alconbury 32 Issue V2
Ground Investigation Interpretative Report January 2017
Situation 1, Very Low.
A CBR value of 3.0% at formation should be adopted for pavement and hardstanding design purposes.
The concrete Design Sulphate Class for the site is DS‐3, ACEC Class AC‐2s.
12.2 Recommendations
The remaining gas monitoring visits should be completed, at which point the gas risk assessment will be updated to
reflect the additional data.
An earthworks and remediation strategy should be developed to outline the measures required to allow the
development to proceed on a more assured basis with regards to potential limited contamination and any
preparatory groundworks that may be required.

REPORT CONDITIONS
GEO‐ENVIRONMENTAL GROUND INVESTIGATION
This report is produced for the benefit of Urban and Civic (Alconbury) Ltd., in accordance with the terms of the
appointment.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the terms and conditions of the appointment and relates to the
condition of the site at the time of ground investigations. No warranty is provided as to the possibility of future
changes in the condition of the site.
Shadbolt Environmental takes no responsibility for conditions which occur between the individual exploratory holes.
Whilst every effort has been made to interpret the conditions between investigation locations, such information is

assurances that they will be accepted by authorities or funds without question. This report is prepared and written
for the purposed uses stated in the report and should not be used in a different context without reference to
Shadbolt Environmental. In time, improved practices or amended legislation may necessitate a re‐assessment.
The report is limited to the geotechnical and environmental aspects detailed within the report, and is necessarily

For certain compounds not identified as a significant risk to human health (eg heavy end hydrocarbon fractions), aesthetic and other considerations may drive requirement for remediation.
SOIL - THE SHADBOLT GROUP SUITABLE FOR USE LEVELS - HUMAN HEALTH
1) Screen individual constituent values initially and if exceedences are noted consider further in relation to averaging areas and statistical analysis
Issue
4) Please note that the TSVs derived for certain compounds may be low in relation to standard laboratory detection limits.
Status
2) These values are for initial screening for potential risk to human health only. They are not remediation thresholds. Screening for other receptors to be done
3) TSVs have been derived for common constituents only to date, pending future issues of this sheet. Research has bene undertaken for numerous other constituents already.
