6.0 Discussion of nitrate loading results relative to proposed method of <br />wastewater disposal <br />6.1 Discussion of total nitrate impact from proposed project: There is a low possibility that <br />the percolating effluent could affect water conditions. The Nitrate Load calculated in this report <br />is within the acceptable range of San Joaquin County Standards. <br />6.2 Description of the methods proposed to mitigate any known or future impact to soil and <br />groundwater from nitrate and/or other constituents of concern, at and/or around the project <br />site: The project, as described in this report, is sustainable by the site in current conditions. All <br />septic systems and leach fields must be constructed to San Joaquin County Standards and must be <br />inspected by a County Inspector. Additions or modifications to the site may require the addition <br />of a waste water treatment system. At the time an addition is proposed, this report should be <br />updated to ensure the adequate improvements are made. <br />7.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS SECTION <br />The conclusions of this report are based on the information provided regarding the proposed <br />development, the use of the subject property, and the site conditions as they existed at the time, <br />we excavated our test hole and performed the percolation test. It was assumed that the test hole <br />and percolation test and the compiled data results are representative of the subsurface conditions <br />in the general area. The site complies with the San Joaquin County requirement by having a <br />project site with less than 10.0 mg/L-N. The values used for calculations assume that the nitrate <br />concentration of rainfall is 1 mg/L-N as previously noted (Hanztch/Finnermore). Also, the site <br />contains denitrification processes and that based on uses the site effluent stream is 40 mg/L-N. <br />Analyzing all the compiled data, the site is adequate for the proposed use. <br />ftAi 119101M i. <br />Attachments are all included at the end of this report as part of the Appendix. <br />8.0 LIMITATIONS <br />Limitations in Nitrate Loading Study: <br />Our services were performed, our findings obtained, and our conclusions proposed in accordance <br />with generally accepted engineering principles and practices.
