5.3 Description of soil lithology as noted from test pit by appropriate professional using <br /> industry standard protocol. The Soil in this area is classified as Montpellier—Cometa Complex, <br /> Redding gravelly loam, and Rocklin sandy loam as stated in the Soil Survey of San Joaquin County, 3� <br /> as provided by the United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service. <br /> 5.4 Discussion of soil lithology as related to future onsite septic uses: The Redding gravelly <br /> Loam and Rocklin Sandy Loam have moderate to slow permeability, thus the percolation rate was <br /> 23 Min./Inch. (See Appendix). <br /> 6.0 PERCOLATION TEST INFORMATION SECTION <br /> 6.1 Site map showing the location,with concise and accurate dimensions of the percolation <br /> test holes on the parcel: See Appendix. <br /> 6.2 The minimum number of shallow and deep percolation tests were performed for each <br /> parcel: One shallow percolation test hole was prepared. <br /> 6.3 Description of the date, time and protocol used to prepare the test hole, including depth <br /> and dimensions of hole, preparation of hole, and depth of water used to presoak(minimum <br /> 12 inches): The shallow test hole was excavated to a depth of 42 inches and 8 inches in diameter <br /> and backfilled with 2 inches of"pea gravel" in accordance with County Standards. The shallow <br /> + hole was prepared by Shaun Mackey of Dillon& Murphy on December 16, 2013. On <br /> December 17, 2013 the 24 hours presoak period was started. The hole was filled with 12 inches of <br /> water over the gravel at this time. <br /> 6.4 Description of the date,time and condition of the test hole after the 24-hour soak <br /> period (hole still intact, hole dry,preparation of hole, and depth of water used to presoak <br /> (minimum 12 inches): On December 18, 2013 the shallow test hole was dry. Six inches of water �� Lo <br /> was added to the hole and the hole was deemed suitable to continue. The shallow test passed the <br /> minimum County requirements. <br /> 6.5 The test conformed to SJC Policy EH 02-02 (correct depth, diameter, 2" gravel,6" <br /> water refill, correct readings recorded). The percolation test conformed to San Joaquin �� 5� <br /> County Policy EHD 02-02. <br /> 6.6 Complete Percolation Test Form (including readings)was provided with REHS (L,(d <br /> verification signature. The rate was correctly calculated using the last reading.
