INTRODUCTION The purpose of this project is to split off eight 40 acre parcels and an unsurveyed remainder acre parcels from two existing parcels. The owner has no imminent plans to develop the new / parcels for housing. Obviously, if the parcels are sold to another party, they could be sold as potential homesites. In accordance with the San Joaquin County Development Title, this Surface and Subsurface Contamination Report(SSCR) is being submitted for application with the tentative map. This report will investigate the property for visual or historical environment contamination based on field observation, soil testing, and testimony from the owners. This report includes no chemical analysis. A Condition of Approval for the Minor Subdivision will require percolation tests and groundwater tests from the wells (nitrates and DBCP). Those results will be included in the Soils Suitability Report. The dividing of the two parcels into smaller parcels is the only known use at this time. Proiect Description The project consists of two parcels located at 6801 and 7903 S. Mobley Road,Farmington. The project is in a farming community and is surrounded by agricultural land. It is zoned AG-40. See tentative map included in the appendix. The tentative map shows all existing wells. There are no septic tanks on the site according to the land use files. The proposed parcels have historically been farmed with seasonal row crops. Proiect History The primary source of information on the historical use of the property is testimony from the owners and records from the County. The Slicton/Gruwell family has owned the property for many years. The deed included in the Appendix shows Mr. Gruwell has owned it since 1976. This property and all surrounding properties have had consistent uses in the time the It Slicton/Gruwell's have owned the property. The surrounding properties have been utilized for agriculture with either row crops, vineyards, or orchards. There are several homes / within a one half mile radius of the project. The area is minimally populated. A review of County Records (San Joaquin County Environmental Health and Agricultural Commissioner's office and the San Joaquin County Contaminated site list) did not yield any contamination concerns. The property owners also stated that there have been no groundwater concerns during their ownership. A review of County Records from the Agricultural Commissioner's office yielded chemicals used on the parcel (See Appendix). There is no record of underground fuel tank storage and the property owners are not aware of any such tank. 1 CA0396Surface and Subsurface Report
