s 2 <br /> tail Map. <br /> A percolation rate of 240 minutes per inch for both Parcel <br /> A and Parcel B is the result of the two tests, and no ground— <br /> water was encountered in excavating either of the soil profile <br /> holes for Parcels A and B. Parcel A was excavated to a depth of <br /> 10 feet and Parcel B was excavated to a depth of 8. 3 feet. <br /> Parcel B was not able to be excavated to a full 10—foot depth <br /> due to the available hand augering tools inability to penetrate <br /> the very hard, dry and loose character of the soil. Both the <br /> operator of the Joseph Perry farm and the farmer directly across <br /> Lammers Road to the west attested that groundwater has never <br /> been a problem in this territory. <br /> The percolation test holes for Parcels A and B were both <br /> situate in soil that had never been tilled before. Generally, this <br /> area was utilized by heavy farming vehicles and equipment for <br /> either parking or traversing through it. Also, the percolation <br /> holes had a tendency to slough continuously in the presence of <br /> water which kept increasing the diape ter of the hole below the <br /> water level throughout the test reading period. <br /> Special considerations will need to be made in developing <br /> the sewage disposal facilities on these two parcels. <br /> Attachments: Walter L.
