and certain others can also develop methemoglobinemia. Symptoms include a bluish color of the skin, as well as headache, dizziness, weakness, and difficulty breathing. Ingestion of high levels of nitrates over time can also lead to gastric problems. DBCP is a nematocide and soil fumigant for vegetables and grapes. It is known to cause male reproductive effects and is classified as a probable human carcinogen. Most domestic use of DBCP was discontinued in 1977 through 1979. The US EPA set the MCL at 0.2 parts per billion (ppb, equivalent to ug/L) because it believes that given present technology and resources, this is the lowest level to which water systems can reasonably be required to remove this contaminant should it occur in drinking water. The Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) for DBCP is zero. Soil Profile and Geologic Information The Site is depicted on the Geologic map of the San Francisco -San Jose quadrangle, California (Wagner, et al., 1991). The Site is depicted within a map unit of Holocene alluvial fan deposits (Plate 10). The surface and near surface soils located at the Site are reported by the USDA Web Soil Survey to be composed of Capay clay and EI Solyo clay loam (Plate 11) (USDA, 2021). The table below presents some selected properties of these soils: Table 1.

See description of the map unit for composition and behavior characteristics of the map unit. Soil Borings On October 28, 2021, Live Oak excavated a shallow soil boring on Parcel 2 of the Site for the purpose of conducting a percolation test. The boring was four inches in diameter, 2.56 feet deep, and was excavated by hand auger (Table 2). Previously, on December 21, 2011, Live Oak excavated a shallow soil boring on Parcel 1 of the Site for the purpose of conducting a percolation test. That boring was four inches in diameter, 3.20 feet deep, and was excavated by hand auger. LOGE 2141 Page 5
