SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY <br /> Introduction <br /> Live Oak GeoEnviron mental, Inc (Live Oak) was contracted by Joseph and Linda <br /> Martinez to conduct a Soil Suitability Study for the property located at 303 South Reid <br /> Avenue, Linden, California (Plate 1). <br /> The Soil Suitability Study was conducted to determine whether the soils are suitable for <br /> use with a septic system. The study was performed according to the requirements of <br /> Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County Development Code. <br /> The formatting of the report has been designed to follow the recommendations of the <br /> San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department as described in its Soil <br /> Suitability Study Requirements Checklist. <br /> Proposed Development <br /> A minor subdivision is proposed to divide the Site into four new parcels and a <br /> designated remainder (Plate 2). Mr. Martinez indicated that he plans to sell the four <br /> new parcels. <br /> Site Description <br /> The Site consists of Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 183-360-08, approximately 15 <br /> acres in size. It is located at 303 South Reid Avenue, Linden, California. The Site <br /> consists of agricultural from which hay has recently been harvested. A house, garage, <br /> and pump house are located on the south side of the Site. A domestic well and septic <br /> system serve the house (Plate 3). <br /> The elevation of the Site, according to a United States Geological Survey topographic <br /> map, is approximately 90 to 95 feet above mean sea level (Plate 4). The Site is <br /> relatively flat. <br /> The San Joaquin County Community Development Department web site states that the <br /> Site is zoned R-R, rural residential. This zoning designation "is intended to provide for <br /> large lot rural homesites within or adjacent to existing Rural Communities. Lots will <br /> generally have sufficient area to allow for individual water supply, sewage disposal, and <br /> storm water drainage, but not to support significant commercial agriculture." <br /> LOGE 1602 Page 1 <br />
