Water Analysis <br /> The water table elevation is approximately 0 feet above sea level at the site. The depth to the <br /> water table from the surface increases from southwest to northeast. The depth being <br /> approximately 70 feet below the surface at the southwest corner of the site to a depth of <br /> approximately 80 feet at the northeast corner of the site. The ground water gradient is to the <br /> northwest. This information was taken from data published by the San Joaquin County Flood <br /> Control And Water Conservation District titled Groundwater Report, Spring, 1999. <br /> The water quality varies slightly in the area. <br /> There were nine domestic water well samples collected on and off property, and analyzed at A&L <br /> Western Agricultural Laboratories. The results identified coliform bacteria in four of the nine <br /> samples collected; however, only two of these samples were on the referenced property, and were <br /> located at open corrals with no flush lanes. Total Disolved Solids (TDS) levels averaged between <br /> 243 ppm to 704 ppm. Nitrate levels were well below the standards, with the exception of one, <br /> which was slightly above. Water pH values were from 7.4 to 7.9, slight to moderately alkaline. <br /> Sample Number Nitrate (NO3) TDS <br /> (ppm) (ppm) <br /> _ <br /> SI-1 22 256 <br /> S2-1 22 256 <br /> S3-1 18 371 <br /> _ S4-1 18 339 <br /> S5-1 18 326 <br /> S6-1 24 442 <br /> _- S7-1 14 243 <br /> 'S8-1 52 7Q4, <br /> S9=1" Y 576 <br /> Refer to Water Sample Test Results, Appendix HE. <br /> There are four major man made water influences to the water table in the area, <br /> o First; the Woodward Reservoir.
