Fexisting ion testing was conducted on proposed Parcels 1, 2, 3 and 4 as illustrated on the found in Appendix C. The pert test location for Parcel l was directly south of the g pad where the leachfield will be installed. The pert test location for Parcel 1 was the existing well location and structures. The following information describes the preparation of the percolation test borings and the actual pert testing: (§ 6.2, 6.3 and 6.5) On July 19,2005, one shallow pert test boring of 42 inches in depth was hand-drilled on proposed Parcels 1, 2, 3 and 4. Only shallow depth borings were drilled and pert tested because leachlines will ultimately manage the majority of effluent flows from any new structure. The sidewalls of the shallow borings were scored with a pry-bar and the loose material removed. Two inches of fine gravel was placed at the bottom and three-inch perforated PVC pipe was inserted in the test borings. All test borings were pre-saturated on July 19, 2005 at 0900 hrs with 12 inches of water. (§ 6.4) On July 20, 2005, 0600 hrs,percolation testing commenced for all four borings. There was no standing water after the 24-hour soak period in the perc tests borings, as illustrated in Table 1 below. Consequently, EHD Perc Test Procedure#2 was conducted for all four test borings. The last half hour of the tests was witnessed by David Van Dyne of the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department. (§ 5.4 and 6.8) The following Table illustrates the proposed Parcel number,potential septic system structure based on depth of passing perc rates, proposed acreage, post soak period status and perc test results for the respective perc test depths: TABLE 1 PERCOLATION TEST RESULTS AND RELATED DATA PROPOSED PARCEL PROPOSED SHALLOW POST SOAK PERC TEST AND POTENTIAL SEPTIC SYSTEM ACREAGE PERCOLATION TEST PERIOD RESULTS STRUCTURE DEPTHS STATUS Parcel 1 12.97 Acres 42 INCHES No Standing 3.8 min/in Existing Leachlines and Water in Hole Sumps(?)
