Santos Ranch Subdivision San Joaquin County - 2 - 4 May 1981 San Joaquin County Ordinance No. 549 states in part: "X. REQUIREMENTS FOR WASTE DISPOSAL FOR NEW LAND DEVELOPMENTS "A. THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS SHALL APPLY TO ALL NEW DIVISIONS OF LAND A14D ALL LAND DEVELOPMENTS FILED AFTER DECEMBER 15, 1972. "B. Minimum Criteria "9. Soil depth below the bottom of the leaching trench or pond shall not be less than five (5) feet. "11. There shall be a minimum of a three (3) foot separation between the bottom of a leach trench or ponds and perched water and a minimum of a five (5) foot separation between the bottom of the leach trench or ponds and the static ground water table. a. In areas of known high ground water tables, a subsurface boring shall be completed to determine the depth of the water table for all new tentative divisions of land. "13. Land developments consisting of less than one hundred (100) lots shall be processed by San Joaquin Local Health District for compliance with the Rules and Regulations. Tentative maps for subdivisions involving six or more family units shall be submitted to the California Regional Water Quality Control Board - Central Valley Region, with sufficient infor- mation that the proposed development will meet San Joaquin County Ordin- ance 549. 14. Tentative maps for land developments shall be accompanied by a report of waste discharge and sufficient information to clearly demonstrate that the proposed development will meet these Rules and Regulations. A public entity may be required prior to any discharge of waste." I believe the completion of the Santos Ranch Subdivision should be delayed until an adequate method(s) is developed to dispose of the domestic sewage to be genera- ted, such as lined oxidation pond(s) followed by evapo/perco ponds, engineered systems, or the identification of individual lots that conform to Regional Board Guidelines.
