(Live Oak) was contracted by Harjinder Kahlon to <br /> conduct a Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study for his property located at <br /> 21799 South Corral Hollow Road, Tracy, California. <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 and Nitrate Loading Study were conducted to determine <br /> whether the soils are suitable for use with a septic system, as well as to estimate if the <br /> use of septic systems will impact ground water quality. The study was performed <br /> according to the requirements of Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County <br /> Development code. <br /> Proposed Development <br /> Mr. Kahlon intends to place a one- or two- bedroom modular home on the Site; an <br /> existing home is also present. <br /> Site Description <br /> The Site is composed of Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 212-260-02, approximately <br /> 1.0 acres in size.
