V. GROUND WATER DEPTH AND TESTING <br /> Currently there is a well on Parcel 2 serving the Mendosa residence with the <br /> capability of providing all the water necessary to irrigate the pastures on the <br /> existing 6.2 acre parcel. Mr. Mendosas well is to a depth of approximately 230'-feet <br /> with excellent water quality. <br /> V1. SOIL PROFILE AND PERCOLATION TESTS <br /> Three test holes for percolation were drilled to a depth of 25 feet each and <br /> 12 inches in diameter. Visual classification of each sail stratum encountered was <br /> made in the field by a Civil Engineer at the time the test holes were drilled. <br /> The location of the test holes are shown on the attached application. The <br /> deep pits are recommended to be to a depth of 25' . <br /> Percolation tests were performed in the holes with a copy of these tests <br /> attached. It can be seen frau the tests that the perk rate for the tests ranged <br /> from 6"1to 35" per hour for the deep holes whereas the shallow holes tested previr __ _ <br /> ously did not perk out to the 1" per hour minimum required. The deep tests will <br /> meet the Health Service departments requirements for the placement of a septic <br /> tank, leach lines and a three deep pits. <br /> V11. CONCLUSION <br /> Based on the results of the percolation test, the soil profile and the past <br /> performance of the existing septic systems in the area and the ells in service <br /> in this area would not be adversely affected or be detrimental to the ground <br /> water supply and will meet the requirements of the san Joaquin County Public <br /> Health Services Department. <br /> V111. LIMITATIONS <br /> The conclusions--in this report are for the information gathered only and does <br /> not warrent any portion of the site not tested. It is assumed that the test results <br /> should be representive of the site as a whole. <br /> Sincerely,, <br /> William Armstrong <br />
