77Thepurpose NTRODUCTION AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT this report was toinvestigate the property for real or potential environmental and report the findings to the Client and the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department. This report complies with the San Joaquin County Ordinances, specifically 9-905.12(a) for a Surface and Subsurface Contamination Report. The subject property is located one-half mile south of the intersection of Mackville Road and Liberty Road, on the east side of Mackville Road. Mr. John Shoup, P.L.S. of Shoup Land Surveying has prepared the Tentative Map for this project,which is found in Appendix A. According to the San Joaquin County Development Title, a Surface and Subsurface Contamination Report (SSCR)must be conducted prior to Tentative Map submittal. It is my understanding the current zoning is AG-40 and there is no proposal to change the zoning. Interpretation of County Ordinance Section 9-905.12 (a) has been to focus on the subject property exclusively, unless it is documented or observed that an environmental concern in proximity to the subject property could potentially affect said property. This Surface and Subsurface Contamination approaches,but does not completely encompass the requirements of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment(ESA) as promulgated by the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM E-1527-00). The Environmental Health Department recognizes that the Surface and Subsurface Contamination Report is not intended to completely fulfill the requirements of the Phase I ESA. The Department does however, maintain that certain components of the Phase I ESA must be applicable to the SSCR, as follows: Section 7.1.7 of the ASTM Document states under"Sources of Standard Source Information,"that "information or other record information from government agencies may be obtained directly from appropriate government agencies or from commercial services." d§ 1.1,§ 1.2 Mr. Valdemar Olson is proposing to subdivide an existing Parcel containing 114.51± acres into two Parcels. Proposed Parcel 1 is to be 5.00 acres. Parcel 2 is to be the "Designated Remainder" and consist of 109.51 acres. A single family residential structure exists on proposed Parcel 1. It is my understanding that at this point in time there is no proposal to build a second unit dwelling on this Parcel 1 or on the Designated Remainder. There is obvious sufficient land arca for a second unit dwelling on Parcel 1, or a primary residence and a second unit dwelling on the Designated Remainder. This report addresses and evaluates non-point sources of hazardous materials, as well as potential point sources. Non-point sources of hazardous materials include potential agricultural chemical residues and the potential for high nitrate concentrations in the underlying groundwater. Point sources investigated on the subject property include: on-site domestic and irrigation wells, a small (-100 gallon)diesel fuel storage tank, and a fertigation systems on the irrigation well,which is described on Page 5. Agrichemical storage/mixing areas are also discussed. No chemical analysis was conducted for this investigation, nor was there an inspection of any on- site or surrounding buildings or asbestos containing materials (ACMs). Page -2- Chesney Consulting
