Generally,the <br /> soil encountered in the boring was similar to the soils reported by the San Joaquin County Soil Survey <br /> for the area (USDA, 1992). The table below presents the soil log for the percolation test location. <br /> Table 3. <br /> Soil Boring Logs <br /> Depth Interval (inches) Soil Type Unified Soil Classification <br /> 16475 Tide Road <br /> 0-41 Brown,dry,sandy loam SM <br /> A visual inspection of the soil from on-site auguring indicates a moderate potential for percolation in <br /> sandy loam.A percolation test is the best method to determine the suitability of the soils for a septic <br /> disposal area. Please see the next section for percolation test results. Generally speaking, <br /> coarser-grained soils have much greater potential for percolation than fine-grained or cemented <br /> soils. <br /> 6.0 PERCOLATION TEST INFORMATION <br /> A site map indicating the location of the percolation test hole location for the parcel is included as <br /> Plate 2 in Appendix A of this report. <br /> At 16475 Tide Road, one shallow percolation test was placed approximately 190 feet northwest of <br /> the parcel property marker located in the northeast corner,and approximately 17 feet southeast of <br /> the northern property boundary. The shallow soil boring was advanced on the property with a han <br /> Petralogix Engineering,Inc. <br /> 26675 Bruella Road,Galt,Ca 95632 <br /> (209)-400-5729 <br /> www.petralogix.com <br />
