Although this level of concentration is within State Drinking <br /> Water Standards, it would present a significant constraint to the <br /> use of individual septic tank/leachfield systems. Preliminary <br /> analysis indicates that increasing lot sizes to 2 acres would <br /> reduce this concentration from 6. 5 . to 5. 0 mg/.1 . � With respect .. o <br /> the potentia-l' ' for public 'health hazard , this projected reduction_ <br /> ;of the nitrate-nitrogen concentration is significant enough to <br />~�= _'war-r'ant two acre lot sizes-. " <br /> 18:- Th6 recommendation for increas ng 'individual lot sizes to ti4O Z <br /> ± acres has been included in the Draft EIR to offset potentials <br /> health-related hazards associated with the use of on-site systems, <br /> and not for the purpose of bringing the project into conformance <br /> with current development policiesA The fact that this application <br /> i` i•s not subject to review in the context of current development <br /> �- policies is acknowledged in the Final EIR.

Please refer to pages 49 <br /> and 52 of the Final EIR . The use of such systems is recommended <br /> as an added fire protection feature in the event that individual <br /> wells are utilized for the proposed underlying project.
