Existing and Proposed Septic Tank Usage Existing Septic System One septic system is currently located on the Site to serve the house. Proposed Septic System No new septic systems are proposed. On-Site Septic Permit History The San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department septic permit files were searched for the Site address. Two permits were identified, and an additional permit was provided by Mr. Bavaro: • September 1985 permit for repair to residential septic system. The permit notes that a new 1,300-gallon septic tank and a 100-foot leach line were installed. • September 2006 permit for septic tank destruction. The permit notes that the single-family residence was also being destroyed, and the well was "to be destroyed under permit at later time." • June 2017 permit for new septic system at residence. The system utilizes a 2,000-gallon tank and three 80-foot leach lines. The septic permits have been included in Appendix 4. Existing Septic Tank Usage in the Vicinity To estimate the septic system usage in the area, our office counted septic systems that exist within approximately one square mile surrounding the property. Air photo imagery from Google Earth was used. Each building cluster on the photo was assumed to have one septic system. Using this method, it is estimated that at least 27 septic systems per square mile are located in the immediate vicinity of the Site. The general area consists of orchards, agricultural land, and rural residences. The City of Escalon is located to the northeast; it is assumed that homes in this area utilize municipal sewer services. Septic Permit History in the Vicinity Based on a review of septic permits on file at the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department for nearby properties, most septic systems in the area utilize leach lines, leach lines with sumps, or filter beds. The septic permits can be found in Appendix 4 of this report. LOGE 1907 Page 2
