Water Sample Because the wells on the Site are not operational at this time, no water sample was collected for this study. Soil Profile and Geologic Information The Site is depicted on the San Jose sheet of the Geologic Map of California (California Division of Mines and Geology, 1966). The Site is depicted within map units of recent Great Valley fan deposits and Pleistocene nonmarine deposits (Plate 7). The surface and near surface soils located at the Site are reported by the USDA Web Soil Survey to be composed of Exeter sandy loam, Honcut sandy loam, and Madera sandy loam (Plate 8) (USDA, 2012). The table below presents some selected properties of these soils: Table 1.

Soil Borings On August 19, 2011, Live Oak excavated one shallow soil boring on the Site for the purpose of conducting a percolation test. The boring was four inches in diameter, 3.22 feet deep, and was excavated by hand auger. The location of the boring is indicated on Plate 9. LOGE 1123 Page 4
