1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT <br /> The purpose of this report was to investigate the subject property, consisting of the two Parcels <br /> listed on the Title Page, for real or potential environmental contamination and report the findings <br /> to the Client and the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department. This report <br /> complies with the San Joaquin County Ordinances, specifically 9-905.12(a) for a Surface and <br /> Subsurface Contamination Report. <br /> The subject property is located approximately one-half mile northeast of the intersection of <br /> Wagner Road and Highway 120. Quartaroli & Associates of Manteca prepared the Tentative <br /> Map for this project, which is found in Appendix A. The land area assessed for this Surface and <br /> Subsurface Contamination Report is outlined in red on both the Tentative Map and on the San <br /> Joaquin County Parcel Viewer Aerial Maps. <br /> According to the San Joaquin County Development Title, a Surface and Subsurface <br /> Contamination Report (SSCR) m1!9 eco ucted prior to Tentative Map submittal. It is my <br /> understanding the current zoning is AG-40 r both Parcels, and there is no proposal to change <br /> the zoning. <br /> Interpretation of County Ordinance Section 9-905.12 (a) has been to focus on the subject <br /> property exclusively, unless it is documented or observed that an environmental concern in <br /> proximity to the subject property could potentially affect said property. <br /> This Surface and Subsurface Contamination approaches,but does not completely encompass the <br /> requirements of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) as promulgated by the <br /> American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM E-1527-00). The Environmental Health <br /> Department recognizes that the Surface and Subsurface Contamination Report is not intended <br /> completely to fulfill the requirements of the Phase I ESA. The Department does however, <br /> maintain that certain components of the Phase I ESA must be applicable to the SSCR, as follows: <br /> Section 7.1.7 of the ASTM Document states under"Sources of Standard Source Information," <br /> that"information or other record information from government agencies may be obtained <br /> directly from appropriate government agencies or from commercial services." <br /> tatt�11�ap. <br /> As referenced, the boundary limits for this SSCR are the red lines as depicted on the <br /> The area encompassing Parcel "I" is 2.74 acres, and the area designated as the <br /> "Designated Remainder" is 43.39 acres. <br /> A single family residential structure exists on Parcel "I" along with a detached garage and a <br /> mobile home unit. At this point in time there is no proposal to build any other structure on the <br /> subject property. There is sufficient land area for a primary and second unit dwelling on the <br /> Designated Remainder. <br /> This report addresses and evaluates non-point sources of hazardous materials, as well as potential <br /> point sources. Non-point sources of hazardous materials include potential agricultural chemical <br /> residues and the potential for high nitrate concentrations in the underlying groundwater. <br /> res . <br /> Page -2- <br /> Chesney Consulting <br />
