septic system, one percolation test (either a shallow or deep test) must demonstrate a <br /> satisfactory percolation rate within the proposed septic system disposal field. <br /> Only a shallow percolation test was performed. Details and results of the percolation <br /> test are summarized in the following table. <br /> Table 2. Percolation Test Summary <br /> Test No., Percolation Percolation Test Duration Comments <br /> Date Tested Test Rate (see notes) <br /> Depth (ft.) (minutes/inch) --- <br /> P1, ) Satisfactory <br /> 8/25/2011 8/25/2011 3.15 2.4 1 hr. perc. rate <br /> Shallow Test <br /> Note: A satisfactory percolation rate for a "shallow"test is less than or equal to 60 minutes per inch. A satisfactory <br /> percolation rate for a "deep"test is less than or equal to 30 minutes per inch. <br /> Discussion of Percolation Test Results <br /> The soils within the sewage disposal area of the Site have demonstrated a satisfactory <br /> percolation rate for the use of a standard septic system in accordance with the <br /> requirements of the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department. <br /> Discussion of Septic System Sizing <br /> Septic system construction utilizing leach lines and pits should follow the San Joaquin <br /> County On-Site Wastewater Disposal Standards (2003) where applicable. <br /> LOGE 1124 Page 7 <br />
