INTRODUCTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Description of Site: The project consists of two parcels totaling 162' acres, located at 23982 Village Drive and 29450 State Route 88, Clements, California. The project is in an agricultural community and is zoned AG -80. The project Assessor's Parcel Numbers are 009-300-06 & 11. Description of proposed development: The purpose of this project is two home sites and a horse training facility. 1.2 Parcel vicinity location map: (See Appendix). 1.3 Site map: (See Appendix). 2.0 PAST, PRESENT, AND PROPOSED FUTURE USES OF THIS SITE 2.1 Discussion of Past, Present uses at the site to assess potential problems: The present owner, LWB Development, has owned this property for the past 6 years. The past and present uses of the property have been for a grazing land. 3.0 CHEMICAL AND PHYSCAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL 3.1 Description of existing chemical and physical properties of soil: For a description of the chemical and physical properties of the soils underlying the site, refer to Section 5 of the Soil Suitability report prepared by Dillon & Murphy attached in the Appendix. 3.2 Description of the mass transport properties of the soils underlying the site with respect to the nitrate and/or any other constituent of concern identified for the project site: The results from the percolation tests prepared by Dillon & Murphy have determined that the site is permeable to a maximum depth of exploration of 42 inches. The soil type allows for infiltration of water through the top soils. The infiltration rate will limit the natural treatment of the sites soils as they drain rapidly from the surface layers. The soil survey by US Department of Agriculture (USDA) indicates that there are four types of soil types. The first is Pardee Cobbly Loam followed by Pentz Sandy Loam, Pentz Sandy Loam with steeper slopes, Pentz-Bellota Complex and Hicksville Loam. The Pardee Cobbly Loam with smaller is composed of the top layer of 0-9 inches of cobbly loams, followed by a more gravelly loam. Pentz Sandy Loam with smaller slopes in turn has sandy loams followed by a deeper layer containing bedrock. The Pentz Sandy Loam with steeper slopes has the same soil profile the previously noted Pentz Sandy Loam. The Pentz-Bellota Complex is composed of silty loam followed by another layer of bedrock. The Hicksville Loam is composed of loams to a depth of approximately five feet. 4.0 GROUNDWATER ANALYSIS 4.1. Description of the depth to groundwater, seasonal fluctuations of groundwater depth, directional flow and gradient: Description of depth to groundwater, seasonal fluctuations of
