I. INTRODUCTION <br /> Dillon & Murphy was retained by Victor Podesta to perform a Soil Suitability <br /> Study for the property located at 7921 N. Podesta Lane, Linden, CA. The subject <br /> parcel number is APN 091-350-01 . The purpose of the study is to determine the <br /> suitability of the property for septic tank usage as required by the County. The <br /> study was performed according to the requirements of Section 10100 of San <br /> Joaquin County Development Code. <br /> II. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT <br /> The property is currently zoned AG-40. The Podesta property consists of a <br /> 67.50 acre parcel (see appendix for map). It is proposed to divide a 5 acre <br /> homesite parcel from the existing 67.50 acre property. The proposed division is <br /> being done as a Financing Homesite Parcel. <br /> III. PRESENT AND PAST USE OF THE SITE <br /> Presently, Parcel 1 is a walnut orchard and contains an agriculture well at the <br /> north end of the property. At an adjacent property an exploratory bore hole was <br /> drilled. Refer to Application 93-1457 dated July 26, 1993 (see Appendix). <br /> IV. EXISTING AND PROPOSED SEPTIC TANK USAGE <br /> Parcel 1 will require a septic system when developed. The recommended <br /> - septic area for this site is 12,000 square feet. At site address 7507 N. Podesta <br /> Lane, there was a system repair on the well tank as stated on permit no. 88-2319 <br /> (See Appendix). Per permit No. 13396 a new septic tank and leach field were <br /> installed at 8000 N. Podesta Lane. In 1998 there was an addition to the existing <br /> septic system done by Morton Septic. <br /> I V. GROUND WATER AND DEPTH TESTING <br /> According to the map of "Lines of Equal Depth of Water Wells" published <br /> { Fail, 1999, by the San Joaquin County Flood Control and Water Conversation <br /> ' District, the depth to groundwater at this location is approximately 140 feet (see <br /> Appendix) The gradient ground water in the project area slopes south to north <br /> according to the map of lines of equal elevation published in the Spring of 1999 by <br /> San Joaquin County Flood Control and Water Conversation District (see Appendix). <br /> Water samples were taken from water faucet located by the office of the adjacent <br /> property and analyzed for nitrates and DBCP. Samples were taken by Mike Toy of <br /> Dillon & Murphy the same day the percolation tests were performed. The samples <br /> were taken using the criteria of Precision Environ Tech. The samples were <br /> 1 <br /> C:10210717921 N. Podesta Lane SOILS REPORT 110503, <br />
