Cherokee Ln., Galt <br /> Service Request SR0078905. <br /> The San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (EHD) has received and reviewed your <br /> Soil Suitability/Nitrate Loading study report dated April 13, 2018 and has found it meets the <br /> requirements of San Joaquin County and Code Title 9, section 9-1105.2 (d). <br /> SPECIAL COMMENTS: <br /> 1. EHD agrees with the author of the study, Chesney Consulting, that"given the soils underlying <br /> the subject property show inadequate permeability, it is Chesney Consulting's <br /> recommendation to enlarge the system to the next upgrade (i.e., a 3 bedroom house to be <br /> upgraded to a 4 bedroom system)." <br /> 2. The data indicates the onsite water well has elevated level of nitrate and may not be a suitable <br /> source for the potable water supply for new development. A potable water supply that can <br /> provide a consistent source of safe and clean water adequate for human consumption, <br /> cooking, and sanitary purposes for the proposed new home needs to be established prior to <br /> the issuance of building permits (2016 CA Plumbing Code, Section 601.2). <br /> Note: EHD has already reviewed the Zone Reclassification project under PA-1800078 and provided <br /> a condition letter dated April 30, 2018 to San Joaquin County Community Development. <br /> If you have any questions please call Jeffrey Wong, Senior Registered Environmental Health <br /> Specialist, at (209) 468-0335. <br /> Mic ael Kith <br /> Program Coordinator <br /> Cc: Robert C.
