color of the skin, as well as headache, dizziness, weakness, and difficulty breathing. <br />Ingestion of high levels of nitrates over time can also lead to gastric problems. <br />DBCP is a nematocide and soil fumigant for vegetables and grapes. It is known to <br />cause male reproductive effects and is classified as a probable human carcinogen. <br />Most domestic use of DBCP was discontinued in 1977 through 1979. The US EPA set <br />the MCL at 0.2 parts per billion (ppb, equivalent to [Ig/L) because it believes that given <br />present technology and resources, this is the lowest level to which water systems can <br />reasonably be required to remove this contaminant should it occur in drinking water. <br />The Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) for DBCP is zero. <br />Soil Profile and Geologic Information <br />The Site is depicted on the Geologic maps of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, <br />California (Atwater, 1982). The Site is depicted within a map unit of "alluvium of creeks <br />from the Corral Hollow drainage to Brushy Creek (Holecene and/or upper Pleistocene) <br />(Plate 8). <br />The surface and near surface soils located at the Site are reported by the USDA Web <br />Soil Survey to be composed of Stomar clay loam (Plate 9) (USDA, 2019). The table <br />below presents some selected properties of this soil: <br />Table 1.

See description of the map unit for <br />composition and behavior characteristics of the map unit. <br />Soil Borings <br />On March 12, 2019, Live Oak excavated a shallow soil boring near the proposed septic <br />disposal area of the Site for the purpose of conducting a percolation test. The boring <br />was four inches in diameter, 3.19 feet deep, and was excavated by hand auger (Table <br />2) <br />The location of the boring is indicated on Plate 10. <br />LOGE 1909 Page 5
