APN: 021-020-12,15 INTRODUCTION & PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The parcels contains 245 acres and is to be subdivided into five parcels. The site is located in the SE quadrant of the intersection of Liberty and Jack Tone Roads. The parcels are vacant. The land is Zoned AG 40 according to the CDD of SJC. (Copy included). Coyote Creek(Intermitant)runs thru the parcel in a northwesterly direction, as shown on the USGS Map, included. PRESENT AND PAST USES OF THE SITE The land was purchased in 1971 by the Pacheco family, former owner. Cattle were raised on the property by the Pacheco family. The previous owner also raised cattle. The land is suited for livestock grazing or dryland grain crops.Aerials included in this report show the site for the years 1952, 1993 and 1998.No chemical use records were found for the past five years. EXISTING/PROPOSED SEPTIC TANK USAGE There are no existing septic systems on the parcel to be subdivided. Few residences exist along Liberty Road in this area. A repair record is included for 11288 E. Liberty Road and 20695 Liberty road. Both sites show hardpan existing. At 14151 a new system was installed for a modular home and the existing septic system destroyed. This site also shows hardpan. The area has marginal soil in general. The USDA Soil Survey of San Joaquin County describes the soil as follows: "Where used for homesite development,the main limitations are depth to the very slowly permeable claypan,depth to the hardpan,-----on site sewage disposal is dificult on the soils because of the very slow permeability and the hardpan". The owner's representative located the probable location for a homesite on each of the five parcels. Only two parcels passed the percolation tests. Additional drilling was necessary to find a suitable area for the leach fields for the remaining three parcels. Sandy soil layers were found on each of the three parcels. The three parcels passed the percolation testing. The large size of the parcels and the homesite locations being unknown may result in pumping the clear effluent to the leach fields. Each lot is large enough to provide room for a second unit dwelling.However additional investigation may be required to determine an acceptable location for the additional leach fields. GROUNDWATER INFORMATION The depth to static water is approximately 145',as shown on Map-Lines of Equal Depth to Ground Water published by SJC, Spring 1999.Coyote Creek carries the surface runoff during the rainy season and is dry during the summer months except for small pool areas near Liberty Road. No groundwater contamination issues are evident. No operating wells exist on the parcel to be subdivided.Two former wells are in the process of being abandoned. 1.
