SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY <br /> Introduction <br /> Live Oak GeoEnvironmental, Inc. (Live Oak) was contracted by Marco Pacheco to <br /> conduct a Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study for the property located at <br /> 172 North Patton Avenue, Stockton, California. <br /> The Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study are combined under this report <br /> cover and presented as two sections of this report. The formatting of the report has <br /> been designed to follow the recommendations of the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department as described in its Soil Suitability Study <br /> Requirements Checklist and Nitrate Loading Study Requirements Checklist. <br /> The Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study were conducted to determine <br /> whether the soils are suitable for use with a septic system, as well as to estimate if the <br /> use of septic systems will impact ground water quality. The study was performed <br /> according to the requirements of Section 9-604.010(d) of the San Joaquin County <br /> Development code. <br /> Proposed Development <br /> Mr. Pacheco proposes to place a new modular home on the Site. <br /> Site Description <br /> The Site is defined as Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 103-100-34, 1.03 acres in size. <br /> It is located at 172 North Patton Avenue, Stockton, California (Plate 1). A primary <br /> residence is located on the Site; the remainder of the parcel is open or landscaped. A <br /> domestic well supplies water to the Site (Plate 2). <br /> The elevation of the Site, according to a United States Geological Survey topographic <br /> map, is approximately 53 feet above mean sea level. The Site is relatively flat (Plate 3). <br /> According to the San Joaquin County District Viewer (sjmap.org), the Site is zoned R-R, <br /> Rural Residential. The San Joaquin County Community Development Department <br /> states that this zoning designation "is intended to provide for large lot rural homesites <br /> within or adjacent to existing Rural Communities. Lots will generally have sufficient area <br /> to allow for individual water supply, sewage disposal, and storm water drainage, but not <br /> to support significant commercial agriculture." <br /> LOGE 2614 Page 1 <br />
