MONCURE ROAD RIPON, CALIFORNIA OUR JOB NUMBER: 599272 I. INTRODUCTION Our office was retained by Broccchini Farms to conduct a Soil Suitability Study for a minor subdivision to create a 5 acre parcel from a 122.6 acre"designated remainder"parcel, located southeast of the intersection of Moncure Road and Curtis Road in Ripon(Plate 1). It is planned to construct a residence on the 5 acre site. The Soil Suitability Study was conducted to determine if the 5 acre parcel and"designated remainder"is suitable for a septic system and leach lines. The study was performed according to the requirements of Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County Development. Major elements of the field work included two (2) exploratory soil borings, four(4) in-situ percolation tests, and one(1)groundwater nitrate and DBCP test. An examination of the field test results, review of published soil information,geologic maps, and available ground water information was used to estimate suitability of soils. This report presents the results of our study. IL PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The planned use for the 5 acre site is to establish a new residence. We understand that a new septic system is required by the county and the existing domestic water well is to be reused. The designated remainder parcel will continue to be used for agriculture purposes. M. PRESENT AND PAST USE OF THE SITE A telephone interview with Mr. Bob Brocchini was conducted to determine the history of the site and general septic conditions of the area. The large parcel has been used for agricultural purposes including the farming of corn, alphlfa, and recently orchards. An older residence with an existing barn, shop, moble home, well, and septic system previously existed on the site of the 5 acre parcel. Presently, no residence exists on the site. There were no reported problems with the former septic system. The large parcel was purchased from Mr. Bruce Avery about 11 years ago. The owner previous to Mr. Avery is not known to Mr. Brocchini.
