NATS has been contracted by Mr. Delbert Rapini, the <br /> property owner, to perform the percolation tests associated with this report. Mr. Rapini plans to <br /> develop the Site into 29 parcels for sale; the proposed right-of-way will allow street access for <br /> each new parcel. <br /> The soil suitability/nitrate loading study(SS/NLS) was conducted to determine whether the soils <br /> are suitable for use with a septic system and to estimate the potential impact to ground water <br /> quality. The study was performed according to the requirements of Section 9-1105.2(d) of the <br /> San Joaquin County Development. A major element of the field work included conducting <br /> percolation tests that meet the required absorption rates as required by San Joaquin County, <br /> Public Health Services, Environmental Health Department (EHD). NATS conducted all the soil <br /> drilling, soil logging, and percolation testing. <br /> In addition to conducting the percolation tests, a review of published soil information, geologic <br /> maps, and ground water information was performed to evaluate the suitability of soils for use <br /> with a septic system. <br /> This report has been formatted to correspond to the EHD's SS/NLS Requirements Checklist, <br /> dated July 14, 2003. <br /> LODI ■ SACRAMENTO ■ MODESTO <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL DIVISION 9021ndustrW Way,Lodi,Califomia 95240 ■209.367.3701 0 209.369.4228 ■w .noandenonxom <br />
