GEOCHECW - PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCE SUMMARY <br /> GROUNDWATER FLOW VELOCITY INFORMATION <br /> Groundwater flaw velocity information for a particular site is best determined by a qualified environmental professional <br /> using site specific geologic and soil strata data. If such data are not reasonably ascertainable,it may be necessary <br /> to rely on other sources of information,including geologic age identification, rock stratigraphic unit and soil <br /> characteristics data collected on nearby properties and regional soil information. In general, contaminant plumes <br /> move more quickly through sandy-gravelly types of soils than silty-clayey types of soils. <br /> ._ GEOLOGIC INFORMATION IN GENERAL AREA OF TARGET PROPERTY <br /> Geologic information can be used by the environmental professional in forming an opinion about the relative speed <br /> at which contaminant migration may be occurring. <br /> ROCK STRATIGRAPHIC UNIT GEOLOGIC AGE IDENTIFICATION <br /> Era: Cenozoic Category: Stratifed Sequence <br /> System: Quaternary <br /> Series: Quaternary <br /> Code: Q (decoded above as Era,System 6 Series) <br /> Geologic Age and Rock Stratigraphic Unit Source: P.G.Schruben, R.E.Arndt and W.J. Bawiec, Geology <br /> of the Conterminous U.S.at 1:2,500,000 Scale-a digital representation of the 1974 P.B. King and H.M. Beikman <br /> Map. USGS Digital Data Series DDS-11 (1994). <br /> DOMINANT SOIL COMPOSITION IN GENERAL AREA OF TARGET PROPERTY <br /> The U.S. Department of Agriculture's(USDA)Soil Conservation Service(SCS) leads the National Cooperative Soil <br /> Survey (NCSS) and is responsible for collecting,storing,maintaining and distributing soil survey information <br /> for privately owned lands in the United States.A soil map in a soil survey is a representation of soil patterns <br /> in a landscape. Soil maps for STATSGO are compiled by generalizing more detailed(SSURGO)soil survey maps. <br /> The following information is based on Soil Conservation Service STATSGO data. <br /> Soil Component Name: CAPAY <br /> .� Soil Surface Texture: clay <br /> Hydrologic Group: Class D-Very slow infiltration rates. Soils are clayey, have a high <br /> water table,or are shallow to an impervious layer. <br /> Soil Drainage Class: Moderately well drained.Soils have a layer of low hydraulic <br /> conductivity,wet state high in the profile. Depth to water table is 3 <br /> to 6 feet. <br /> Hydric Status: Soil does not meet the requirements for a hydric soil. <br /> Corrosion Potential-Uncoated Steel: HIGH <br /> Depth to Bedrock Min: >60 inches <br /> Depth to Bedrock Max: >60 inches <br /> r <br /> TC01123401.1r Page A-4 <br />
