Satisfactory 1 <br /> Deep Test percolation rate <br /> Note: A satisfactory percolation rate for a "shallow" test is greater than 1 but less than or equal to 60 minutes per <br /> inch. A satisfactory percolation rate for a "deep" test is greater than 1 but less than or equal to 30 minutes <br /> per inch. <br /> Only one test (shallow or deep) is required to pass for the area to be considered suitable for standard septic <br /> systems. <br /> 1 Per San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department, a rate between 5.0 and 30.0 min/in requires an <br /> eight-foot separation between the bottom of dispersal system and ground water, or mitigation by system <br /> design or enhancement. <br /> Discussion of Percolation Test Results <br /> The soils on each proposed parcel of the Site have demonstrated a satisfactory <br /> percolation rate for the use of a standard septic system in accordance with the <br /> requirements of the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department. This <br /> percolation test is considered representative of soils within a 100-foot radius of the test <br /> location. <br /> LOGE 20-54 Page 7 <br />
