In summary,the soils investigation for the specific domestic wastewater disposal area for the <br /> Multipurpose Building has found the indigenous soils under this area to contain a comparatively <br /> high percentage of clay that possesses surprisingly favorable permeability and potentially <br /> significant denitrification characteristics. To take advantage of these favorable soil characteristics, <br /> Quick 4TM Infiltrator Chambers® are specified to create uniform effluent dispersal by using a <br /> duplex, alternating pump pressure dose system, through a dual filter bed arrangement. <br /> As discussed in the Primary Report, nitrate impact to the water table under the subject property <br /> was found to exceed the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for nitrate in drinking water in <br /> 2003. The domestic well that will serve the project has not been drilled as of the date of this <br /> Report. Since this well must be designated as a public well, it will have to be monitored under <br /> EHD regulations. <br /> In the time since the September 2003 Report was completed, the EHD has established a <br /> "Requirements Checklist" for all the types of Studies they require to standardize and create <br /> uniformity between the Reports being submitted. Within the text of this Report, bolded Section (§) <br /> numbers are referenced at the beginning of an applicable Paragraph or Paragraphs, Appendix or <br /> Table of Contents that correspond with the EHD Requirements Checklist. Section Numbers <br /> referenced as SSS§, are sections applicable for the Soil Suitability Study Requirements Checklist. <br /> Section Numbers referenced as NLS§, are sections applicable for the Nitrate Loading Study <br /> Requirements Checklist. Other portions of text may also apply to other sections of the Checklists. <br /> The architectural firm of Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc. (HGA) of Roseville, California are <br /> the architects for the project and Shack and Company of Tracy, California are the civil engineers for <br /> the project. <br /> II. SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY FINDINGS <br /> A. S CT PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING STUDY AREA INFORMATION <br /> SSS 1.1. a project site is located in the southwest corner of Valpico d Corral Hollow Roads. <br /> The erty is currently fallow agricultural land, consisting of a total 20.O01�cres, and has been <br /> fallow(not under agricultural production) for the past five years. _ <br /> Surrounding land use to the east of the project is, and has been for over three decades, in low <br /> density rural residential along Corral Hollow Road. As noted on the San Joaquin County Parcel <br /> Viewer Maps,the current surrounding land use is composed primarily of agricultural production <br /> land to the south and southwest. Directly to the north of the project is very low density rural <br /> residential housing and new high density housing within the City limits of Tracy. To the west are <br /> two, single family rural residential structures, and the Church of Latter Day Saints o The <br /> General Plan is Open Space/Resource Conservation(OS/RC) and the current zoning ' U 20 <br /> SSS4 1.2. As referenced in the Introduction, it is proposed to construct the Church Co in <br /> seve ries, which are illustrated on the attached Site Plan. The construction of the Multipurpose <br /> Building,which is the subject of this report, is Phase 1. <br /> Page -2- <br /> Chesney Consulting <br />
