Results are summarized of three test borings and four test pits made in the area of the planned Huntington Station of Huntington Route in Section C010C. of the Washington Metropolitan Area Metro System. The work was done to obtain information relating to potential stability problems of sloped open cuts for the station and parking facilities. The report contains supplementary and revised geological sections through the new exploration, logs of the test borings and test pits, results of tests performed on samples recovered and a text summarizing the information for stability studies.
