SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY <br /> Introduction <br /> Live Oak GeoEnvironmental, Inc. (Live Oak) was contracted by Alejandro Alamilla to <br /> conduct a Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study for his property located at <br /> 4035 West Stoneridge Drive, Tracy, California (Plate 1). <br /> The Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study are combined under this report <br /> cover and presented as two sections of this report. The formatting of the report has <br /> been designed to follow the recommendations of the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department as described in its Soil Suitability Study <br /> Requirements Checklist and Nitrate Loading Study Requirements Checklist. <br /> The Soil Suitability Study was conducted to determine whether the soils are suitable for <br /> use with a septic system. The study was performed according to the requirements of <br /> Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County Development code. <br /> Proposed Development <br /> Mr. Alamilla intends to construct a new three-bedroom home on the Site; a four- <br /> bedroom home is currently located on the property. <br /> Site Description <br /> The Site is composed of Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 239-250-41, approximately <br /> 1.48 acres in size. The Site is located at 4035 West Stoneridge Drive, Tracy; the San <br /> Joaquin County Community Development Department lists an additional address of <br /> 4025 West Stoneridge Drive for the Site. <br /> The house is currently located on the Site; the remainder of the property is vacant. A <br /> well and septic system serve the house (Plate 2). <br /> The elevation of the Site, according to a United States Geological Survey topographic <br /> map, is approximately 22 to 23 feet above mean sea level. The Site is relatively flat <br /> (Plate 3). <br /> According to the San Joaquin County Community Development Department <br /> (www.co.san-joaquin.ca.us), the Site is zoned R-R, Rural Residential. This zoning <br /> designation "is intended to provide for large lot rural homesites within or adjacent to <br /> existing Rural Communities. Lots will generally have sufficient area to allow for <br /> individual water supply, sewage disposal, and storm water drainage, but not to support <br /> significant commercial agriculture." <br /> LOGE 1911 Page 1 <br />
