The <br /> subject property is located with the San Joaquin Valley. <br /> LHydrology The subject property and surrounding area lie within the San Joaquin Valley <br /> Groundwater Basin, Tracy Subbasin (5-22.15). This subbasin is defined by <br /> the areal extent of unconsolidated to semiconsolidated sedimentary deposits <br /> Lthat are bounded by the Diablo Range on the west, the Mokelumne and San <br /> Joaquin Rivers on the north, the San Joaquin River to the east, and the San <br /> Joaquin-Stanislaus County line to the south. The Tracy Subbasin is located <br /> adjacent to the Eastern San Joaquin Subbasin on the east and the Delta- <br /> Mendota Subbasin on the south. All of the above mentioned subbsains are <br /> located within the larger San Joaquin Valley Groundwater Basin. The Tracy <br /> Subbasin also lies to the south of the Sacramento Valley Groundwater Basin, <br /> Solano Subbasin. The Tracy Subbasin is comprised of continental deposits <br /> of Late Tertiary to Quaternary age. These deposits include the Tulare <br /> Formation, Older Alluvium, Flood Basin Deposits, and Younger Alluvium. The <br /> cumulative thickness of these deposits increased from a few hundred feet <br /> near the Coast range foothills on the wet to about 3,000 feet along the <br /> eastern margin of the basin. <br /> Groundwater depth and flow direction was obtained from the California <br /> Department of Water Resources Groundwater Information Center Interactive <br /> Map. Groundwater contours approximately 4 miles northeast of the subject <br /> property indicate that groundwater is found at an approximate depth of 20 <br /> feet below surface grade and flows to the general northeast. AGE assumes <br /> that groundwater depths and flow direction beneath the subject property are <br /> 1.. similar. <br /> -........ ............ - <br /> Topography The property is located at an elevation of approximately 0 feet above mean <br /> L, sea level (MSL), in an area of low topographic relief. Regional slope of the <br /> area is toward the general north. <br /> _._..- — --- -- <br /> ` Surface Soils EDR provides a report listing dominant soil composition in the general area of <br /> L the subject property based on information from the United States Department <br /> of Agriculture's Soil Conservation Service STATSGO (State Soil Geographic <br /> Database) soil maps. Soil surface texture at the subject property consists of <br /> Peltier soil, a mucky clay loam in the Class C Hydrogeologic Group which <br /> includes slow infiltration rates. Corrosion potential of this soil for uncoated <br /> steel is high. <br /> Surface Water One drainage canal is located in the western region of the property. <br /> Features <br /> Flood Zone The EDR database report shows that the subject property is located within a <br /> 100-year Flood Zone. This data, available in select counties across the <br /> country, was obtained by EDR from the Federal Emergency Management <br /> Agency (FEMA) which has maps depicting FEMA-defined 100-year and 500- <br /> year flood zones. <br /> Wetlands The EDR database report shows that the subject property is located within <br /> the National Wetlands Inventory. This data, available in select counties <br /> across the country, was obtained by EDR from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife <br /> Service. <br /> Advanced GeoEnviron mental,Inc. <br />
