The three (3) soil borings drilled to a depth of approximately three ( e ere used <br /> later for percolation test holes; the locations of the borings are indicated n Plate 1. One <br /> approximately three (3) foot boring was drilled on each parcel. <br /> 51.2 Soil Boring Dimensions <br /> The soil borings were approximately three (3) feet, as noted above, and were four (4) inches in <br /> diameter. <br /> 543 Soil Lithology Observed <br /> Generally, the soil encountered in the boring is similar to the soils reported by the San Joaquin <br /> County Soil Survey for the area (USDA, 1992). The table below presents a representative soil <br /> log for all of the soil borings. Conditions were comparable in the all of the holes. <br /> Table 2 <br /> Soil Boring Log <br /> Depth Interval (ft) Soil Type Unified Soil Classification <br /> 0-5.0 Medium brown, sandy silt SM <br /> 5.4 Discussion of Soil Lithology <br /> A visual inspection of the soils from on-site drilling indicates potential for percolation because of <br /> the nature of the soils. A percolation test is the best method to determine the suitability of the <br /> soils for a septic disposal area. Please see the next section for percolation test results. <br /> Generally speaking, coarser-grained soils have much greater potential for percolation than fine- <br /> grained or cemented soils. <br /> 6.0 PERCOLATION TEST INFORMATION <br /> 6.1 Percolation Test Locations <br /> A site map indicating the locations of the percolation test holes is included as Plate 1 in the <br /> appendix of this report. <br /> 6, ber of Percolation Tests <br /> Oile (1) shall w percolation test was conducted on each parcel for a total of three (3) shallow <br /> et�colation t sts. <br /> "004 <br /> 'i <br /> 902 Industrial Way•Lodi,CA 95240•209.367.3701 •Fax 209.369.4228 ©2008 Nei!O.Anderson&Associates.Inc <br />
