T <br /> 3 and 6.5) On August 9, 2006, 0900 hrs,one shallow perc test boring of 42 inches, one <br /> (12.5 ft) and one 300 inch(25 ft)percolation test borings were drilled with a truck- <br /> mounted Mobile Drill B-24 drill rig. In accordance with EHD rules, no percolation testing was <br /> conducted on the Designated Remainder Parcel. <br /> , The sidewalls of the shallow boring was scored with a pry-bar and the loose material removed. The <br /> sidewalls of the two deeper borings could not be scored due to their depths. Two inches of fine pea <br /> gravel was placed at the bottom and three-inch perforated PVC pipe was inserted in each of the <br /> three test borings. All borings were pre-saturated on August 15, 2006 at 0830 hrs with 12 inches of <br /> water. <br /> ✓(§ 6.4) On August 16, 2006, 0800 hrs, percolation testing commenced for the three perc test borings. <br /> There was no standing water after the 24-hour soak period in the borings, as illustrated in Table 1 <br /> below. Consequently, EHD Pere Test Procedure#2 was conducted for the three test borings. <br /> According to EHD policy, any number of perc tests can be run,but only a shallow and a deep test <br /> result can be considered"official." Consequently, since the 25 ft test boring had a marginally passing <br /> perc rate, the shallow 42 inch test, and this 25 ft test are the"official'test results. The 12.5 ft boring <br /> is the"unofficial'perc test as denoted by Ms. Lisa Medina,R.E.H.S. of the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department on the EHD Perc Test Form. The last half hour of the tests was <br /> witnessed by Ms. Medina, R.E.H.S. The maximum acceptable perc rate is 60 min/in for shallow perc <br /> tests and 30 min/in for the deep 25 ft test boring. <br /> 41 <br /> 5.4 and 6.8) The following Table summarizes the percolation test results and related data: <br /> TABLE 1 <br /> PERCOLATION TEST RESULTS AND RELATED DATA <br /> PARCEL PROPOSED PERC TEST DEPTH POST SOAK PERC TEST <br /> POTENTIAL SEPTIC ACREAGE PERIOD RESULTS <br /> SYSTEM STRUCTURE <br /> EXISTING STATUS <br /> STRUCTURE <br /> Parcel 1 5.00 f Acres 42 INCHES No Standing 20.8 min/in <br /> Leachlines and Seepage Water in Hole <br /> Pits for any Future <br /> Installation. 150 INCHES No Standing 10.4 min/in <br /> Existing House with 12.5 FT Water in Hole <br /> Leachlines and Seepage <br /> Pits 300 INCHES No Standing 27.8 min/in <br /> 25 FT Water in Hole <br /> 4.0) LOCAL GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER INFORMATION <br /> (§ 4.1) The 1999 Lines of Equal Depth Map published by the San Joaquin County Flood Control <br /> illustrates the groundwater depth to be approximately 150 feet below ground surface(b.g.s.).
